Washington, Nov. 1.-THE possi-
bility Of bringing William Hohenzol-
Tern and his arch accessories before a

crimes against the laws of nations and
humanity was discussed here by ex-
perts in international law.
There was no official comment

embarrassing situation by the arrival
of her unexpected guests, who are said
to include many members of the Ger

beck to make a show in point OF num-
Der of delegates.
This fact may involve, the transac-
ton of most of the business OF the
conference by selected committees
which will represent in their compost
ton every element and whose reports
will come before the full conference
for ratification.
AS to the place Of meeting there Is
yet much doubt, with many claimants
for that honor. While it has been
urged that the conference gather IN
some historic spot in France, objection
may lie against that proposition Based
on the generally accepted view that
such meetings should be held at a
point where they can be quite free
from tho charge of any local influence;
in other words, it should be on neut- al
territory, and even some OF that ter
ritory is regarded as unsuitable te-
cause of the pronounced sympathy Of
the population with one side or the
other.
Little Switzerland is believed to be
strong favorite, and there has been
some mention of the beautiful town of
Lausanne as an ideal meeting place,
one report being that American agents
already have quietly obtained hotel
and other accommodations for the
United States delegates at that place

freedom of the seas
"The cooperation between the

find anyone on either side to give
definition of the freedom of the seas
$50 far as history goes the power

Driven by q storm from height Of
5000 feet into the Everglades of Flor
ida, Lieutenant Smith, an aviator sta
toned at CarlstrOm field, Miami, was
forced to add to his startling expert
ences the prospect Of starvation in a
trackless swamp, infested with snakes
and alligators. He and his passenger.
Sergeant O'Connor, were rescued by
Seminole Indians, after having wan
dered through the Everglades for two
days without food or water.
The airplane in which Lieutenant
Smith and Sergeant O'COnnor were at
tempting to fly over the Everglades
was submerged in the mud and water
and somewhat damaged but later was
put in order and sailed forth once
more. to the great wonder Of the Semi
nOleS.
Lieutenant Smith had undertaken
the work of photographing IL shorter
line OF flight over the Everglades to
Fort Meyers, and was on his mission
at the time of his adventure. He had
reached an altitude of 1000 feet above
the great swamp when he observed a
storm approaching from the south and
changed his course to the southwest in
an effort to avoid it. Finding this i'm
possible, he veered to the west and at
tempted to climb above it. AT 5000
feet, however, he encountered a terrific
wind from the north which tossed the
plane and twice turned it almost COM
pletely on it's back.
The motor cut out twice and Lieu
tenant Smith had to put the plane in
nose dive to clear itself. Suddenly
the machine broke through the clouds
and the swamps appeared just below.
The motor was still giving trouble and
the pilot was compelled to land. He
continued his flight along the shallow
and open places fringing the swamp,
but the ga e I'VE cut and he came down
Is miles west of Miami. In the land
ing Sergeant O'Connor's lips were cut
and he was bruised about the body and
legs Lieutenant Smith WAS only
slightly bruised.
