that popularity means that they

CONFEREES AT ODDS
ON $50, 900 ARMY BILL
Fear So Many Cannot Be Enlisted
with the Present Rate of Pay -
Outlook Not Promising.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Conferees
on the army bill have been deadlocked
over the proposed increase of the regular
army to 250,000
The failure to respond to the govern
ments invitation to enlist under the au-
thorization by congress of an increase of
the regular army to it's full legal strength,
was cited as an argument that it is futile
to try to raise an army up to 250000 under
present conditions. This was pointed out
by Senator Hughes at the time the sen
ate adopted the amendment to the army
ibill in the senate and Senator Hughes, who
voted for the increase, said 1t would be of
no avail unless congress raised the pay
of the enlisted men. The senator offered
an amendment to raise the pay to S25 a
month"; but it failed.
! The house conferees have stood ont
against his proposed increase and say that
If congress authorizes an army of 250,000
! the strength will be a paper strength sim
1 ply and the recruiting under present condi
tions will never succeed.
! The senate conferees have argued that
the amendments made by the senate in the
bill providing for vocational training and
the shortening of the term of enlistment
with the inducements offered for re-en
listment will stimulate interest in joining
the army.
The outlook for an early agreement OF
the bill in conference is far from promis
ing.

U. S. MOVES IT'S GOLD INLAND

Because officials did not want the
fact that Denver is being made the

been placed at the mountain city.
There was $438,473,2S6 in gold at

McGRAW SAVES BOY
FROM DROWNING
Heroic Act by Man Who Dismantled
Old Brattleboro House-Lad Was
Being Carried Toward Dam

Edward p. McCraw of North Adams,
Mass, one of the contractors who dis
mantied the ODD BrattIeboro House and
became acquainted with numerous
BrattIeboro persons while in town,
saved a boy from drowning in Fitch
burg Thursday. The North Adams
Herald tells the story as follows:
" Edward p MeCraw, for some years
superintendent of water works III this
city, and one of the best known and
popular citizens, covered himself with
glory in Fitchburg yesterday, saving
the life of a drowning bly,, while
scores of people looked on as the
lad yas being borne over dam and
to what was apparently certain death.
"Mr McCraw is in Fitchburg for
the purpose of dismantiing a building
recently purchased by his company,
and was working about the place
when a cry of horror went up from a
number of people some little distance
away. Looking, the North Adams man
saw young lad struggling in the
water. He was being carried by the
swift current toward a dam some dis
tance below, and Mr., McCraw as well
as others saw that if he once went
over the high dam chances of saving
| his life would be few.
" Seeing that those nearer the boy
would make no attempt to save hin
from the cold and treacherous water
Mr.. McCraw dropped his tools, and
started on run toward where the boy
must pass. He discarded a portion OF
his clothing as he ran, but was unable
to get off a great deal, for quick ac
tion was necessary.
''Plunging over a 2O-foot embank
ment Mr.. McCraw struck the wate
just below the youngster, who by thi
time was unable to help himself in an,
way, and swimming out to him he wa
able to grasp him by the hair as h,
shot past 1t was terrific struggl
to pull the boy to land because of tn
current, but the brave. North Adam
man finally reached a point where as
sistanee could be given him, and tn
1.-TWO were pulled ashore. It was a mar
ROW call for both, as Mr.. MeCraw wa
absolutely exhausted when he reach
led land.

URGES BRYAN PLAN.
Sherwood Proposes Treaty Method il
Solving Diplomatic Problems.

WASHINGTON, April 29.-As a So
luton of the pending diplomatic prob
lens between the United States and
foreign Powers, Representative Sher-
wood of Ohio in resolution introdue-
ed yesterday proposed that congress
adopt the method of settlement pre-
sented by William j. Bryan in the
pease treaties he negotiated with
other nations while he was secretaI.
of state.
The resolution, after an explanation
of the provisions of the Bryan treaties
for the submission of controversies t
an international commission for inves-
tigation and report within a year, adds
that 1.-the sane and humane method
of settling disputes between govern
ments set out in the treaties should
i be employed in the adjustment of any
and all serious controversies between
| the government of the United States
and any other government.
Mr.. Sherwood called attention to the
existence of eighteen treaties which
pledge the United States and other
Governments to the Bryan plan of de
lay for a year before taking hostile
steps and that similar instruments
have been approved by nine European
govern .nents.

KING MEETS ASQUITH
AND EARL KITCHENER
London Wonders If a New Cabinet
Crisis Has Arisen Over the
Consumption Issue.

LONDON, April 29-C Considerable gos-
sip was caused in political circles last night
by an official announcement that King
George made journey from Windsor to
London yesterday afternoon for the special
purpose of a conference with Premier AS
quith and Earl Kitchener and Immediately
returned to Windsor.
The war council of the cabinet sat for
two hours yesterday morning and assem-
bled again in the afternoon for another
long session.
Whether another cabinet crisis has
arisen is not known. 1t is possible that
the Kings visit to the premier and wal
minister had to do with the obtaining o1
! the Kings approval of the new military
/ bill. The universal opinion is that there
is no longer any alternative to the intro
lduction OF a general conscription bill, witt

a trial of a scheme for the voluntary re
