SUB" CONTRo-
VERsY SERIOUS
United States Insists on a
Complete Agreement Cover.
ing the Disputed Facts
GERMANY IS FIRM

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE United
States in it's submarine controversy
with Germany will accept nothing short
of full and complete agreement COW
ering all the points for which it has
contended. as to assurances that the
warfare in the future will be conducted
in accordance with the established
principles of international law.
In announcing the fact today, Sec.
retary Lansing let it be known that
the state department considers Ger,
many's declaration of its intention TO
sink without warning after Feb. 30 all
armed merchant ships of the entente
allies to be inconsistent with the as
surances previously given this govern
ment by the Berlin foreign office.
The tentative communication de-
signed to end the Lusitania case, still
in the possession of Secretary Lansing,
will not be formally accepted until
such assurances regarding the future
are given, although the communication
insofar as it relates to the Lusitania
itself is acceptable.
State department officials also con.
slider that the Austro- Hungarian men,
orandum regarding armed ships is not
in accord with the assurances given by
that government in the negotiations
over the sinking of the Italian steam
ship Ancona. Consequently final set
tlement Of the Ancona case, once post
poned because Of the doubt regarding
the circumstances Of the sinking Of
the British steamship Persia, probably
will be withheld until Austria givcs
similar assurances to those now re.
qussted from Germany.
The views Of the United States were
explained in detail today by Secretary
lansing to Count Won Bernstorf, the
German ambassador. The ambassador
was informed, it was indicated at the
state department, that the United
States deaires the German declaration
regarding armed merchant ships to -
modified.

the debt. Malo s total claim amounts
to $25,966.92, he having advanced some
$4,000 for taxes since he advanced the
money.
The foreclosure proceedings were Ill

pany, Mary Glitch Long and others.
The defendants did not make any de-
fense, but permitted Malo to obtain
judgment by default.
Malo, in his complaint, alleged that
he made the loan March 26, 1915, and
that the company failed to pay the in

CURLEY CASE DECIDED IN
FAVOR TOWN OF MARBLE

News articles in the Denver papers
the forepart of the week, backed up by
dispatch from Sapp & Nash, attor-
neys in the case, gave the information
that the suit of Mrs. Mary Curley to
recover the money she paid the town
of Marble for bootlegging fines had
been determined in favor of the town,
the judgment Of the district court be-
ing affirmed. Mrs. Curley brought
suit on the ground that under the stat
utes Judge Budlong, as police magis-
trate, had no legal right to try the
cases; that they should have been tried
by justice of the peace. The district
court, which reviewed the matter, de-
cided that she failed to perfect an ap-
peal and that when the bonding COM
pany paid the fines it was then too late
to attack the jurisdiction Of the trial
court. The bonding company pail
1890 to the town of Marble and then
seized the property Of Mrs. Curley
which she had put up as security. In u
few later cases against Nn. Curley,
wheye the fines sud costs amounted to
about t4oo, II appears probable that
she will recover that amount, from the
town, although this IL . point which
Judge Budlong is endeavoring to get
information about from the attorneys

Unknown Man Found Hanging
to a Tree on Mountain
East Of Old Cemetery
NO One is MISSING

Considerable excitement resulted just
after noon yesterday when Mr.. Herkey
rushed up to City Marshal Rohr and
reported that while hunting on the
southern portion of Lookout mountain
about half mile east of the Glenwood
cemetery he had found the body of
man hanging to a tree. Marshal Rohr
hastily informed Coroner Hopkins who,
fortified with snow shoes, at once set
out to climb the mountain to the scene
of the suicide.
Deacon sent the Farnum dead wagon
as far as team could be driven up
the cemetery road and the balance of
the trip was made on snowshoes. Whea
DR.. Hopkins and others reached the
body they found only the shriveled re-
mains of what had once been a man,
all that was left of some mother,
boy, but as to the identity of the per-
son, that was impossible.
There was every evidence that the
man had been dead from three to six
months. The light brown hair re-
mained, about the only identifying fea-
ture. The man had worn dark suit
of clothes and red sweater. The
flesh had wasted away and the skin
was drawn tightly around the bones.
The body was hanging in an upright
position by knotted rope such as is
used by the ordinary tramp in tying
his bedding. The right leg, from the
knee down was gone-evidently carried
away by coyotes. The upper portion
of the spinal column protruded through
the skin where the moose of the rope
drew tightly around it and the head
was almost completely severed from
the body. The teeth were well set to-
gether and were in good state of
preservation, indicating a rather young
man.
This was the gruesOme sight that
met the gaze of those who accompanied
DR.. Hopkins in the investigation. Tha
remains were wrapped in sheet and
carried down the mountain side by the
men and, unless there should be some
further Identification, will be buried
at the expense of the county. Not Il
sign of a book or paper could be found
in the pockets of the clothing and IT
seems evident that the man must have
planned to shuttle Off the mortal coil
in about the most secluded place nc
could find and to obliterate ANYTHING
that might lead to his Identification
Apparently he succeeded in his pur-
pose to the extent that was possible
with him, and the ravagcs of time have
done the rest.
So far as the Post can learn no one
had been missing from Glenwsod and
vicinity and the officers say they have
had no inquiries concerning anyone
who had dropped out of sight. 1t
would be interesting, indeed, to know
the real history of this ease, but it is
altogether probable that nothing fur
ther will be known about it.

CAPITOL CORRESPONDENCE

Denver, Colo, Feb. 15.-The atten-
dance and enthusiasm of the Lincoln
Day banquet, Saturday night, surpas-
sed all expectations and can be ac-
counted for only on the theory that the
Republicans of the state have a deep
conviction that they are entering upon
campaign that will result in both
state and national victory.
A spirit of optimism pervaded all the
speeches. The psychological condition
that presages success was present in an
unusual degree, and it is significant
that this assurance of victory is not
tied up with any one or two personali-
ties 1t is believed that the principles
of the party are to triumph, no matter
who may be selected as leader.
At the afternoon meeting of the
State Central committee, Pueblo was
selected as the place, and May 2, as
the time for the state convention to
select delegates to the National con
vention. This late date will give
ample time for discussion as to the
candidate Colorado should support and
as to what men and women, as dele
gates, will best represent her convic-
tions. There seems to be growing
conviction that no state official should
90 on this delegation, but that the
honor should go to those who have
labored for the party, and given to it,
without hope or expectation of any
office.
The attempt that has been made to
bring Mr.. Nicholson s name before tn,
people as a possible candidate for gov
ernor, has created a good deal of dis
cussion. Many of his closest friends
declare the action unauthorized by Mr..
Nicholson and insist that upon his re-
turn from Honolulu, he will promptly
repudiates the whole business. Others
believe it is a shrewd way of feeling
out public sentiment, and that his final
attitude will be determined by the
| Ol lHe leopohsS. 'ieh '"A
candidates for governor in the field,
Stocker, Carlson and Nicholson-no
one can, at this time, make an intelli-
gent forecast of what the result would
be. The State committee indicated
very clearly that as far as they were
concerned, they would play no favor
ites-that any member Of the party
could aspire to this office without any
stumbling block being placed in their
way by those controlling the party
machinery.
At the meeting of the State Central
committee of the Progressive party
held yesterday, fifteen counties were
represented. Only few of the old
time leaders were present but these
solemnly agreed that they would never
no never, give up the ship, but so long
as there was any danger of any con-
servative capturing the Republican
nomination for president or governor,
they would be on hand to save their
beloved land from the calamity of his
election.
! Friends of good government still
earnestly hope that an honorable basis
of cooperation may be found so that
all opponents of the Colorado brand
of democracy may work for one ticket
this fall.
The rank and file Of both parties
want this and they will not have much
| patience with Bourbon leaders who
stand in the way of such consumma-

The Eyes OF The Jews
Were Blinded

This was a portion of the min
isterial life of Christ; to blind
the eyes OF the Mosaical Jews as
a nation. and that with parables,
while He was here on earth.
And beyond all contradiction
Christ did this. And this the
reader will see and understand
as we refer them to the script
ures on this point, while we are
advancing with our subject.
But before we lay down our
premises by the word; We wish
to ask the reader to make n
thorough examination of his own
mind and feeling. and ifhe finds
anv thought resting within him
that he would not lay down for
truth, or a thought that would
keep him from a thorough
investigation. Get rid of it rirSt,
and .bem take up the subject
with US. Always remembering
that the teachings of man which
we have been under for the past
four hundred years has been and
is quite different to what we are
presenting to the people of to
day, from the truths recorded
in the word of God. That is
since we have received the light,
as God has given it in his word.
And now after the consider
GRAFTON above. we shall present
to The reader the command of
God to Christ; before Christ e7.
err left the courts of heaven, to
come to earth: Please read:
And be said 20 and tell this
people, Hear We indeed but un.
lerstand not; and see yc indeed
but perceive not.
Make the heart of this people
fat and make their ears heavy
ard shut their eyes lest they see
with their eyes and hear with
their ears and understand with
their heart, and convert and be
healed lisa. 9-10)
In this command of God, the
premises of our subject is found.
God said to Christ. Go make
the heast of this people fat, and
close their eyes, We must
understand that Christ was tU
close their eyes spiritually, sc
that they would not understand
that it was him, So that they
would condemn him TO death
That salvation might be brought
to the Genvilcs. But some one
might say, Matthew uses Ian
guage that teaches me that they
themselves blinded their owr
eyes; for he said.
! "for this peoples heart is
waxed gross, and their ears arr
dull of hearing, and their eye!
they have closed; lest at an,
time they should see with lhei
eyes, and hear with their ears
land should understand wit
their heart, and should be cor
;verted, and | should heal them.
!. l(Matt. 13-l5.)
Now dear reader, we must Sd
to you, that if Matthew wouI
not have had foundation /
build on, then of course, W
could do nothing more than So
that it was fact that they blint
ed their own eyes. Bat Ma
thew refers US to the premise
that we have recorded atoy

fact we shall ask you to rea
