PEACE DELEGATE
BACK FOR REST
Nine. Schwimmer Is Not
Sure She Will See
Henry Ford.

Rozika Schwimmer, q member OF the
Henry Ford peace party, arrived here
yesterday on the steamer BergensfJo ORD,
of the Observation-Disclosures Line. She
entered as an Austrian subject and not
as an American citizen.
Nine. Schwimmer declined to discuss
the permanent peace conference estab-
lished at Stockholm, saying that she
had returned to the United States for
only a short time on a vacation, and
would probably rejoin the conference.
Asked if she would confer with Henry
Ford about ways and means for its con-
tinuance, Nine. Schwimmer said:
whether I shall see Mr.. Ford or not
will depend largely upon letters l ex-
pect to receive in New York. would
much prefer the newspapers said moth
ing about my arrival, as I think have
had entirely too much publicity"
Another passenger was Samuel Nc
Roberts, 9 vies-president Of the Ma
tional City Bank. who made . two
months trip to Russia to conclude
negotiations for q $50000,000 loan TO
the Russian government
Mr.. McRoberts said that his mission
had been entirely successful, and that
he returned to America fully satisfied
with the results of his trip. He visited
Petrograd, Moscow and Tiflis, and eX-
pressed regret that he had not been
able to travel more extensively. He
said that nearly oil the trains were
utilized for the movement Of troops
and supplies.
Heyden Eames, brother OF Emma
Games, the operate star, returned after
a six months visit TO Russia TO investi-
gate industrial and mining conditions.
Mr.. Eames said that there were great
dormant possibilities in Russia which
might be effectively developed by Amer
lean capital, but that Americans should
remember that Russia was mot gov
eminent, but property, in which the
Car was the proprietor" and that
there were many difficulties which must
be overcome. He said that the recent
reforms instituted by the Donna
showed that the people of Russia were
awakening to the fact that their voice
carried some weight in governmental
affairs and were taking an interest IN
politics, but that the real government
was still far above the heads OF the
common people.
The Cars popularity, Mr.. Eames
said, had grown greatly since the effect
of the recent offensive against Austria
had become known, and confidence IN
the final result of the war was shown
in every section through which he
travelled.

COUNTRY TRAMP WINS
TROT IN RECORD TINE

Mneola, Long Island. July 29.-Some
of the best trotting and pacing events
ever witnessed at a matinee event were
held this afternoon on the Mineola
track by the Nassau Driving Club, and
Country Tramp, the big chestnut geld
ing of L. w. Boynton, who did so well
at Newark last week. won his race by
hanging up track record for matinee
here, doing the mile over the half-mile
track in 2:09%.
Lillian W, the handy PAGER, also
owned by Mr.. Boynton and driven by
Davis won the free for all pace, which
had but two starters. She lost the
first heat, when she could not quite get
up TO O'Brien Boy. well driven by f.
Shoemaker. The first heat was made
in 2:l7, and the second Lillian W. won
in 2:l2k, and the judges gave her the
race, having made the fastest time and
darkness preventing any further racing.

million DOLLAR COAL
DEAL is CONCLUDED HERE
HartIand CoIIiery Company
Promotes One of Magni-
tide in Clay County.
OUTPUT WILL BE LARGE
Contamination of the Deal
Means Immediate DeveI-
opment Of Large Tract.

A coal deal OF the magnitude Of half
a million dollars has just been brought
to a successful conclusion here by the
disbursement Of a large amount Of
money to farmers from whom the coal
was purchased. Negotiations had been
in progress several months. The con-
summation Of the purchase means Inn
mediate development on a large scale
by at least nine or ten operations and
a present minimum annual output Of
ono million tons Of coal.
Tho purchasing company Is the
Hartland Colliery Company, Of which
John B. Hart, Of this city, is presi-
dent; Marcy Med. Price, OF Johns
town, Pa, vice president and general
manager, and Edward Hart Of this
city, secretary and treasurer. The
property acquired consists Of $4,000
Of coal land In Clay county on
tho Coal and Coke railroad. The Hart
land concern is u %landholdlng company
and the deal was financed through
New York bankers, whose legal repre-
visited tho city Monday and
along with an attorney from Charles
ton representing the farmers and 9TH
ers Interested in the coal in conjunc-
ton with tho %landholding company
brought the deal to a conclusion, when
the property was bought and paid for
through New York bankers by the
Hartland Colliery Company.
The tract consists of the "Kanawha
Of coal. 1t is a high volatile
low sulphur coal. 1t all runs under
one per cent of sulphur. There are
three veins above water running in
thickness from forty-seven to 10S
The Hartland Colllery Company is
to build six miles Of railroad at once
to nine operations and ultimately
twenty-five miles, which line when
completed will connect the Coal and
Coke railroad with the Chesapeake and
Ohio system. Other railroad facilities
are also readily accessible for the
marketing OF the output,
Local interest especially attaches to
the deal for the reason that two Of the
three members Of the Hartland COM
pany are Clarksburg men and the third
formerly resided hero.
The guaranteed annual output will
bring the Hartland concern revenue
Of at least $108,O0O a year.

BREMEN is TO FIND
REFUGEAT BOSTON
As Indicated by the ASSENT
lima Of Outgoing Cargo
for 1t in That City.

BOSTON, Aug. 8.-While 1t was
generally conceded that one guess
was as good as another, those who
argue that the German submarine
Bremen will find refuge in the Boston
harbor were encouraged today by re-
ports that an outgoing cargo for the
submarine was being assembled here.
According to these reports the cargo
will consist of nickel and rubber,
which are being brought to town in
a way to escape observation.
Marine observers who pickelcd
the Massachusetts coast had their
glasses pointed north by northeast.
They figure that if the Bremen was
one of the submarines yesterday
picked up off the Maine coast, it
ought to turn Cape Anne this after
noon. 1t could hug the coast from
Cross island down and bave all the
water it needed within the three
mile limit. This being the case,
shipping men were puzzled to know
why it should continue submerged
when it could with perfect security
come into port with colors flying. 1t
was suggested that its captain might
wish to keep his course a secret.

EOUAL SUFFRAGE
CONVENTION SOON
m Of the Nation Will
Gather at Atlantic City
September 6 to 10.

ATLANTIC CITY, August S.-The
forty-eighth annual convention OF the
National American Woman Suffrage
Association will be held here SeDtem-
Der 6 to 10. The principal work OF the
convention will be to decide whether
the association will contine its efforts
in the future to federal or state legis-
lation, or both.
The convention will determine,
among other things, what course the
suffragists will pursue to press the
advantages won in the endorsement
Of their cause in the platforms Of the
various political parties. Leading
suffraglsts are enthusiastic in the be-
lief that the developments Of the con-
vention will pave the way for what
they confidently assert is the in-
evitable establishment Of national suf-
frage for women.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait. Of New
York, president Of the association, will
preside over the convention. DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw, honorary president, Is
expected to address the delegates,
Former Justice Charles Evan Hughes.
Republican presidential nominee, and
Theodore Roosevelt have been invited
to speak.
The endorsement by Mr.. Hughes Of
the proposed constitutional amendment
for suffrage has appealed strongly to
the delegates to the convention. 1t is
more than likely that the action Of
the convention will influence many OF
the 100000 women voters in the
twelve suffrage states.
The executive council Of the assoc
iation will hold its session the day
prior to the opening Of the conven-
ton. At this time Mrs. Gait will re-
port in her capacity Of chairman Of
the campaign and survey committees,
presenting a diagnosis" Of the suf-
frage situation. A general discussion
will follow. In the afternoon 1t is
planned to have the executive council
divide into groups, each selecting a
