BIG GOVERNMENT DREDGEs
ARE NOW NEAR MERIDIAN.

Meridian people can realize the ex-
tensive work being done by the Re-
clamation service in draining the
lands Of this vicinity, as the dredges
can be heard at all hours of the day
and night. A smaller drainage
ditch has been completed mp 10 the
S. L. Stanton place, in the village
limits of Meridian, and the work on
this ditch will be completed this
week. 1t is a feeder for the main
ditch, and digging work commenced
at point near the Victory school,
and ends within forty rods OF the
cheese factory in Meridian.
This ditch is five feet wide at the
bottom. and about % feet at the top
and is about half the size OF the
ditch into which it empties, and
which is being extended up Five Mile
creek, starting from Victory, and
which will head at point near the
Short Line railway culvert across
Five Mile, short distance east OF
Meridian. The dredge on the latter
work is about two miles from Merid-
ian and is working this way very

C. HI. BRADLEY DIES
 FROM HEART TROUBLE

Following an attack of heart trouble at his home, 4s1 Clinton avenue, Charles H. Bradley, father of a prominent family and at one time ac- tive in steel circles of Pittsburgh and New York, died yesterday, MT. Bradley had been i'll for several weeks, but was not considered to be in a serious condition. Grief over the recent deaths of his daughter. Mrs. Frederick w. Miller of Pittsburgh. and his son, Charles H. Bradley, Jr., is thought to have hastened his own.
 MT. Bradley was born in Pittsburgh on June 2S. 1859, the son of Alexan- der and Elizabeth Stewart Bradley. He was connected for many years with the A. Bradley Steel & Iron Co. of Pittsburgh. Fifteen years ago he resigned from this and came to Bethel where he resided on a small5 farm for five years. At the end of that time he removed to the home on Clinton avenue where he died.
 MT. Bradley is survived by his wid- ow, son, Alexander Bradley of New Drexel Riddle of Philadelphia, and Hampton, L. I. Several grandchil- dren and great grandchildren also survive him.
 The body was sent to Pittsburgh this morning. Services will be held in that place on Saturday afternoon at the home of his son in law, Fred erick w. Miller, and burial will be in the family plot in Allegheny ceme- tery.

 On the pier wall, tanned young men land harbor blues, while the ~ex- curtionists wait for the gang plank to be run in.

TO EASE
UP ON BLACK LIST
Reply to American Complaint
Said to Provide Means Of
Relief In Many Cir
cumstanCes.

Washington, Oct. 30.--Great Britain's
note in reply to American representa-
ton against the commercial blacklist
was received today at the state depart
ment. Arrangements regarding it's pub
ltcation will be made later. 1t Is un-
derstood to reiterate h contention for
h right to blacklist, but offers meth
DDS of relief to Americans in certain
circumstances.
The British note is in reply to the
American note of July 2S, which de-
nOunced the blacklist as IAN arbitrary
Interference with neutral trade" and
Inconsistent with true justice, sincere
amity n impartial fairness which
should characterize the dealings Of
friendly governments with n an
other.'
The names of some of the American
firms already have been taken from the
blacklist and the note is understood to
afford means of removing others.
The British note is understood to tax
the line of argument that it is unprece-
denied for q neutral to claim q bellig-
erent should, IN effect, compel its sub
jects to trade with the enemy, and that
it violates no law for the British gov
eminent to prevent Its subjects from
doing so. While the British govern
ment admits the rights of all persons
in neutral countries to engage in le-
Ultimate commercial transactions. 1T ar
CUES that such a right does not limit
the right OF other governments to re-
strict the activities of their own ma
tionals.
The point at issue in the c%ontrover-
sy is whether the nationality or the
domicile of the owner of goods gives
character as neutra or belligerent.
Previously Great Britain and the Uni
ted States have agreed that domicile
was decisive, regardless of nationality.
THE continental EurOpean position has
been that nationality was decisive. In
the previous negotiations over the
blacklist. Great Britain took a position
between the two theories.
The subject probably will be carried
on in further diplomatic correspondence.

than Russia. railway concessions in the
region north of the wall.

PAINLESS AND BL0oDLEss
OPERATION DEMONSTRATED

Philadelphia, Oct. 2s.-Painless and
bloodless surgery by a of a sys-
tenn of nerve blocking and pressure on
the arteries was one Of the many deli
cate operations which held the atten-
ton yesterday of the members of the
Clinical Congress of Surgeons of North
America in annual session here. DIR.
r.. G. Skillern. jr, of this city, oper-
ating on a subject for the removal of a
tumor in the head, demonstrated a
method by which the patient, though
conscious, was insensible to pain.
The system consisted of blocking, or
strangling. the nerve leading from the
brain to the seat of affection with an
injection of drugs regarded by sur
geons as superior to and safer than
cocaine to arrest pain impulses to the
brain. The stoppage of blood loss was
accomplished by pressure on the ar
teries with a metallic clip, sometimes
with a rubber band. and frequently by
the fingers of an assistant.
Further experiments in the rams
planting Of tendons to correct the after
effects of %infantile paralysis formed a
part of the clinics yesterday.
