DEPOT TERMINALS
ON The SOUTH SIDE
Northwestern Declares Inten-
ton Of Spending q Large
Sum Of Money.
WANTS STREETS VACATED

General Manager Walters and At
torney Mclaughlin Of the North
western Railway company placed be-
fore the city council plans for pas
senger terminals to be located at
Forty-second and E streets, South
Side, and asked for vacation of streets
intersecting a tract of property which
has been purchased.
The city commissioners will visit
the site Saturday morning with rail-
way officials to determine whether
the vacations should be made and the
plans approved.
Attorney Mclaughlin explained
that his company proposes TO invest
Sl50,000 on these terminals in addition
to the price paid for the property. He
stated that trains from the east will
be forwarded to these terminals after
unloading passengers at the Union
depot, instead of backing the equip
ment to the Bluffs. Trains will be
made up at the new terminals. He
explained that these terminals will
relieve the river bridge of twenty
eight movements a day and will also
relieve the Union depot. The erection
Of hotel at the terminals was NEIL
toned as an incidental improvement
to care for the railroad men.
Ordinances have been prepared to
cover the necessities of the case.

Insurance Rates On
Diamonds Are Increased

Insurance on diamonds shipped
across the water and through the war
zone has now gone up so that it
amounts in some instances to from
IS to 20 per cent ofthe value of the
stones. This makes the diamond sit
uation all over the United States very
acute. Diamonds are high, and per-
feet stones are growing rarer and
rarer.
The renewal of the submarine cam
paign and the mapping out of a
larger definite war zone has made it
so that these stones from point Of
origin have to cross the danger zone
at least three times before they can
get to America Hence the increased
insurance rates. They are mined in
South Africa, shipped to England,
thence to Holland to be ground and
polished, thence back to England and
to America.

You Can Now Polish
Teeth Without Injury

Few people seem to realize that the very
methods commonly used to keep the teeth
clean really cause many destructive
tooth and gum troubles. 1t is generally
understood that grit in a dentifrice is
necessary for thorough cleansing. But
the same qualities which make such sub
stances as cutie fish. whiting, chalk, ETC.,
efficient cleansers, render them dangerous
to the soft, delicate gums. Even when
ground fine and concealed in smooth,
creamy tooth pastes these tiny particles
of insoluble grit lodge In pyorrhea 'pock-
cts" and become imbedded in the gums,
to serve as sources of irritation, infam-
nation, infection.
If every one knew that thes objec-
tons are entirely overcome in ordinary
avatol, which is at the same time a per-
feet cleanser, mo one would brush his
teeth with anything else. When the grit
in avatol has cleansed, polished the teeth
and removed every stain, 1t dissolves. 1t

BEGIN ON REPLY TO
 GENERAL CARRANzA
REFUSED TO APPROVE PRoTo- COL SIGNED BY coMMiS SSioN
 MEMBERS AT. ATLANTIC CITY.

hington-American members of the joint American-Me Mexican commits sion went to work on their response to the last communication of General Carranza, who, it is now admitted, of ficially refused to approve the proto- col signed by the commission mem bers at Atlantic City for withdrawal of American troops from Mexico and the cooperative border patrol.
 A number of circumstances lead to the belief that the joint commission may abandon it's attempt to compose the international difficulties, and that Henry P Fletcher may be sent soon to the post of ambassador to Mexico, for which he was confirmed nearly year ago. The text of the protocol was published for the first time.
 There were further insistent re- ports, lacking of confirmation, that the administration is seriously con sidering ordering General Pershing's troops back to American soil to be distributed along the border for mili- tary reasons, regardless of CarranZas attitude.
 Eliseo Aredondo, Mexican ambassa dor designate. announced he had been called to Mexico City by General Car ranza for conference, but that he would return to his duties here in about three weeks.
 It was announced that the American commissioners only would make q statement of their position to the President, and in Mexican quarters was taken to forecast an end of the commissions negotiations. An an swer is being prepared to Ca.ranzas $ plea for notifications in the protocol but it was said that was not to be discussed with the President
 The end of the commissions nego- tiations was considered by other off cials to be preliminary to new line of procedure in Mexican relations. which is expected to begin with the sending of Henry P. Fletcher to his post as American ambassador to Mexi co City, and the withdrawal of the American military expedition.

NATIONAL DEFENSE
 PLANS DISCUSSED
HOUSE COMMITTEE WORKS ON DETAILS OF THE $8oo,o0o,0o0
 MILITARY BUDGET.

Washington.-Whi a subeommft- tee of the Senate Military Committee continued the accumulation of data and opinions of army officers on uni versal military training, House con- mittees worked on details of the S800,- 000,000 military budget for 1918, and the Senate Public Lands Committee was informed that all efforts to reach a compromise with the Navy Depart ment on legislation affecting navy oil lands had again failed.
 Senator Pittman of Navada, chair man of subcommittee appointed to confer with navy officials, said efforts would now be made to pass oil land measures considered proper by Con- gress over the objection of the depart ment. Western senators expressed in- dignation at the attitude of the navy.
 The controversy is over proposed relief for claimants on oil land includ- ed in naval petroleum reserve No. , in California The department has held that passage of the pending bill would threaten the navys oil reserve supply and make it dangerous to build oil burning battlecraft in future.
 The Senate military subcommittee heard Col Stephen NJ. Foote of the coast artillery school and Col. Charles D. Rhodes of the mounted service school Both strongly favored univer- o1 the present volunteer system, particu- larly the national guard feature, was failure. Col. Foote presented a plan of his own, providing three months summer training for each of four years for all available youths aged r years. A million boys could be given this training annually, he said, at cost of about S100.000.000
 Col. Rhodes declared the dual con- trol by federal and state governments over the national guard rendered it an unavoidable system. He thought every state would come to the establishment of constabulary force for it's own use
 Brig. Gen. CroZier, chief of army ordnance, told the House Military Committee that European var orders were crowding American army con- tracts out of private munition plants. There was little eagerness among manufacturers, he said to get the gov ernment's business. A vast sum would be required to fit government arsenals to turn out wartime needs of the army, Gen Crozier estimated. add ing that he favored continuance of the practice Of fostering private plants for this reason.

Most of these dispatches have arrived by way of Syria and are more than week old, but the Morning Posts cor respondent, claims that the position of the Greek capital then was such as to indicate that the Athens government is mediating some desperate stroke.
 The reservists are being secretly en- rolled. The correspondent reports, while measures regarding artillery and munitions are being extensively taken.
 The newspapers, which are not ex- clusively contorolled by the govern ment. more than hint at war and de- mand that Greece mobilize, says the correspondent.
 A dispatch to the Times from Pi- raeus, says that the real key to the situation in Greece is the military pc sition in Macedonia According to this story, King Constantine has re- ceived discouraging news from beyond Monastir to the effect that Field Mar shal von Mackensen considered 1t i'm possible to move on Monastir before another two months at the earliest. The Greek government realizes, there fore, says the dispatch, that if it broke with the entente it would have to sup port the struggle alone.
 The Greek council of ministers has approved restriction of the daily ra- tions and the appointment of food dictator, says an Exchange Telegraph Company dispatch from Athens.
 News dispatches from Athens quote passages from a note presented to the Greek government by the American minister detailing the case of an Amer ican citizen.
