New Setting for Old House.

Many an old house has been allowed
to pass into state of disrepair, and
finally has been torn down to make
place for a more modern building
merely because the owner has not
been able to see in the old building
possibility for the attainment Of at
tractiveness and charm by means Of
new setting. The rarest gem in a
battered setting can hardly show its
value. Put it in platinum and gold,
modern in cut, and the same gem Is
a glory to its owner; provide the old
house with natures setting, in the
form Of judicious planting, together
with tasteful garden arrangement and
a pergola, and straightway it is given
a new lease Of beauty.-L. G. Hoyt, In
The Countryside Magazine.

United States Policy Unchanged.
Washington, Nov. Secretary
Lansing authorized a formal state
ment today that the progress of the

Meanwhile Count Won Bernstorff,
the German ambassador, sent wire

ing that he be furnished Immediately
by wireless with all the details availa-
bic regarding the sinking of the
Marina.
Secretary Lansing's statement fol-
lows;
"The fact that a political campaign
is in progress will in no way affect
the practice of the department in ne
gotiating and in making full investi.
cation of cases of this sort. We shall
do it as we always have, with as much
celebrity as possible.

ment on a matter which has beer
brought to my attention. The ques.
ton has been raised as to whether the
policy OF the president or the depart.
ment in regard to submarine warfare
since the Sussex was sunk has been
changed. ! wish to say emphatically
that there has been no change in any
particular. IL.
Awaits Word from Germony.
Secretary Lansing made it plain
also, that no decisive action would be
taken until Germany had had oppor'
tunity to reply to the inquiry for Its
version of the attacks on the Marina
and Rowanmore. The instruction:
sent to the embassy at Berlin were
said to ask for an investigation BY
Germany and not for an explanation
1t was not meant to indicate that tn,
United States believed that it had any
proof that Germany had violated it
pledges.
| The question of whether the Mar
| ina was armed is becoming increas
ingly important. No mention of tha
has been made in advices so far re
ceived and the embassy in Londor
has asked for information on th'
point.
Germany has commended that ship
armed, even with small stern guI
for defense only, should not be emit
tied to the ordinary guarantees, bu
could be sunk on sight as being prac
tically naval auxiliaries.
The fact that England has beer
arIning more and more of its mer'
chantmen has made the question Z
vital ono in Germany's consideration
| of wider submarine campaign.
Officials here leave no doubt that
the United States will not admit such
contention by Germany.

BAN JOHNSON SAYS
CHANGE Is COMING
American League Magnates
Think Too Many National
Men on Commission.
CoNFERs WITH HERMANN

Chicago, Nov. President B. B.
Johnson of the American league, in a
statement tonight, admitted that there
probably will be change in the
complexion of the National Base Ball
commission" paEa-,. A :
The statement was issued after two
afternoon newspapers had quoted Mr..
Johnson as saying that August Herr
mann, chairman of the commission,
would be deposed. Immediate denial
of the statement was made. President
Johnson, however, said that certain
club owners of the American league
wer opposed to too much National
league in the composition of the Ma
tional commission" l..a..
Confers with Johnson.
Mr.. Hermann is president of the
Cincinnati club Of the National league
and has been chairman fof the Ma
tional commission since the5formation
of the body, under the agreement of
both leagues. He was in conference
with President Johnson here last
week regarding questions involving
the commission.
The commission is made up of
Johnson, Hermann and John, TX.
Tener, president of the National
league. VT
Must Must Agree on Third.
New York, Nov. 1.-The chairman
of the National commission is elected
annually by the votes of thetwo major
league presidents which means that
both Johnson and Tener must agree
upon the third member, since a diff
ference of opinion would result in a
deadlock. As both league presidents
are automatically members of the
commission, as at present consti-
tuted, the only way in which the COM
plexion of the body could be changed
would be the election of third men,
Der not affiliated with either league in
place of the present chairman, who
also is the president and chief stock
holder of the Cincinnati National
league club.
