Board of Aldermen.

All the members Of the upper
board were present when the meeting
was called to order.
After the reading Of the minutes
of the last regular and adjourned
meeting, Mr.. Brill arose and said that
at the last session of the board he
had given notice that at this meeting
he would move the election of sue
cessor to the late j. M. Hill, Alder
man from the First Ward. He, how
ever, had interviewed several repre-
sentative citizens either of who would
prove a useful member of the board,
but none seemed disposed to stand
for election; hence he had determined
to make no further effort to have the
vacancy filled, as the fiscal year was
drawing to a close and the new Coun-
Gil would convene September lst. Mr..
Brill said there was no reason why
Vice President should not be elect
ed. He nominated Mr.. Bal
lenger, saying he was the oldest mem
Der of the board in point of service.
The motion was Immediately second
ed, after which several members
spoke in favor of the election of Mr.
Ballenger. No other name being sub
mitted, Mr.. Ballenger was elected by
a vote of ayes 6, noes none-Mr. Bal
lenger not voting.
Mr.. Summers, from the joint COM
mittee on fire and finance, made a
favorable report on resolution ap-
propriating, S1,500 for the purchase
of hose for the fire department. The
report was adopted.
Mr.. Fitzgerald, of the committee
on light, made a report on resolu-
ton looking to the renewal OF the
contract with the Alexandria County
Lighting Company. The report: re-
commended that the matter BE, refer
red to a special committee consisting
of the chairman of the committees
on light, finance and general laws.
The report was adopted.
Mr.. Ballenger called attention to
the fact that by the death of Mr..
Hill the finance committee was short
one member. He suggested that Mr..
Brill be appointed to fill the vacancy.
Mr.. Brill said that while he appre-
ciated the confidence expressed in
him, he begged to be excused, as the
fiscal year was drawing to a close
and most of the important financial
matters had been perfected.
President Field appointed Mr..
Brill a member of the committee
on poor to take the place of the late
Alderman Hill, who was chairman OF
the committee.
The Aldermen concurred in the ac-
ton of the Common Council on all
papers sent in from that board.

was uttered last night by ,Represen-

The joint reply of Great Britain
and France to the American protest
of last November in regard to re-
strictions on trade caused by the
blockade, was made public yesterday

The fact that the Deutschland was

The delay may have been caused by
bad weather or change in the date

In the opinion of the local dealer,

SOLVES PROBLEM
Especial Gable to Nippu JILL

Especial Gable to Nippu JILL
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, July To-
That the only way available to reach
a final and satisfactory solution OF
the Japanese,American problems is
by a revision Of the treaty now in
force between the two countries is
quoted by DR.. David B. Schneider,
president OF the Tohoku Gakuin, an
educational Institution in Sendai, Ja-
pan. to be the utterances of President
Wilson.
In the course of an interview which
was held at the White House while
the educator was in Washington, Dr..
Schneider states that President Will
son made these remarks. DR.. Schnei-
der came here on Friday from the
East to take the T. X. X. liner Shinyo
Maru. which sailed on Saturday for
Honolulu and the Orient.
President Wilson is quoted as say
ing that he was forced to see the
danger that the problems which re-
main yet unsolved will become before
long vital question confronting the
Washington and Toxic governments
for prompt and final solutions for the
best interests of the two nations.
This will become, the President
is said to have declared, more en-
barrassing than the difficult questions
which; have to 3e solved due. to the
European war" When asked that
statement be given regarding meth
cd that would be satisfactory to Ja-
pan and the United States, the chief
executive is quoted as saying: The
final remedy can only be found in "a
revision of the existing treaty.
The United States senate has the
power to ratify. or reject the treaty
and without its sanction the revision
or renewal of the treaty cannot be
accomplished. And what fear in the
contemplated revision Of the treaty is
that any step toward that end would
meet with opposition In the senate"
the President is said to. have remark
ed. @ .S.t@t
DR.. Schneider reports that the In
terview was open-hearted, and the
President was sincere in his express
sions. DR.. Schneider has been visit
ing in United States for some time,
and during his visit collected $25,00
for the Kakuin fund. H
