AMBASSADORS RECALLED BY
BELGIUM AND HOLLAND, BER-
LIN WIRELESS REPORT SAYS.
Diplomatic Relations Between TWO
Countries Strained, 1t is Said, as
Result of Demands of Belgium For
Revision of the Treaty of 1889.

London.-An official wireless dis
patch from Berlin says that the Bel
gian Ambassador at The Hague, nav
ing been withdrawn, the Dutch AM
bassador in Brussels also has been
withdrawn.
Several times recently there nave
been reports that diplomatic relations
between Belgium and Holland We're
strained as a result of the demands OF
Belgium for revision of the treaty
of 1889 between Belgium and Hol-
land under which Holland annexed
The southern bank of the Schefdr
River and an elongated strip of Dutch
Limburg, lying between Belgium and
Germany.
Belgium based her demands upon
the necessity of obtaining a stronger
military frontier and freeing the trade
of Antwerp, her great port, from the
restriction now placed upon it by
Dutch possession of the lower portion
Of the Scheldt, and asked for political
| control of the southern bank Of the
river. and certain guarantees deemed
to be necessary to safeguard Belgium's
economic interests in Southern Linz
| burg.
In return for these concessions the
Belgians suggested that Holland re-
ce!ve compensation in the form of GER
rain bits of German territory inhab-
tied by a Dutch-speaking population.
The allies were believed to be in
clined favorably toward the principle
of the free navigation of the Scheldt,
but Holland is understood to have
been opposed irrevocably to renuncia-
ton of sovereignty In this connection
A commission of the peace conference
at last accounts was considering the
| situation.

While the radical elements at the
Convention seem likely to be defeat

headed by Mr.. Compers, keynote

which indicates that labor feels that
a new era Of workingmen has been

tocracy, whether it be in the politi-

Mr.. Gompers Opens
Labor Convention

The Reconstruction Convention Of
the American Federation Of Labor,
with Samuel Gompers in the chair,
opened yesterday at Atlantic City.
That the Convention is to have a con-
sentative trend is indicated by the
| fact that the prophecies of the friends
Of Thomas Mooney Convicted Of
murder in the preparedness-day ex-
|plosions in San Francisco), to the ef-
feet that a general strike would be
called for the release of Mooney,
seem to be unfounded. A resolution
lis being considered asking for anoth-
|er trial for Mooney rather than a
general strike.
1t may we'll be that Mooney should
be granter a new trial, but there
seems to be no justification for a
general strike to force such trial.
That would mean a reputation Of
contracts with employers who made
those contracts in good faith. 1t
would mean the declaration by labor
that those contracts were SO many
scraps Of paper" A resolution such
as the one proposed is more fair to
all anil will doubtless be fully as ef
all AMI will doubtless be fully as eff
,fective as strike
Another indication that the Con-
vention will not yield to its more
radical elements is found in the an
nouncement that President Berry Of
the Pressman's Union that the char
ter of Franklin Union No. % will be
suspended because of the connection
Of that union with pacifist and radi-
cal elements in New York. Then too
