After an exhaustive hearing of those

of John Snowden, the negro who was
convicted of the murder Of Mrs Lot
tie Mary Brandon, in Annapolis, Au-
gust Z. 1917, Gov. Harrington stated
this morning that the matter was at
an end, and that he would not inter
fere with the execution, which is to
take place here Friday. Sheriff Bells
expects to execute the death sentence
upon Snowden at daybreak, as has
been his custom in other cases.
The chief interest in the case now
centers in the activity of Mrs. Grace
Humiston, the New York lawyer and
social worker. who claims to be con-
vinced of Snowlen's innocence, and who
has been active with the witnesses in
the case and along other lines. Sew
erai efforts to impress Gov. Harring-
ton with her alleged new evidence
have failed completely.
Last night Mrs. Humiston created a
sensation near the scene of the Bran
don murder by attempting to secure a
statement from a white woman who
had testified in the case that her testi-
mony was erroneous. Mrs. Humiston
spoke to the woman harshly. and was
ordered out of the house. She has left
the city, but if she returns steps will
be taken by the authorities to prevent
her from disturbing those who testi-

TRIPARTITE TREATY
Letter Asks Every Senator to

The American Defence Society has
sent TO every United States Senator a
letter in warm Endorsement of the special
treaty Of alliance between the United
States, Great Britain and France and
which asks every Senator to support the
agreement. Praising the Senate for its
patriotism during the war and for it's
high minded and non-partisan war sup
port OF the President. the society VEN
lures to express the wish that the Senate
will agree that the tripartite treaty will
make for the peace OF the world.
I'VE are convinced" the letter states,
that Germany will labor to put herself
in a position TO bring on another war
against France the moment she believes
she has fair chance OF winning some
thing by new attacks. and will not per-
form under the peace treaty unless sho
be restrained by the knowledge that tho
United States and Great Britain will
Join In its enforcement against her.
we believe that the best of all safe
guards against Germanys next war will
there be found In the event OF another
aggressive movement on the part OF Ger
many. Believing this, we beg you to
take such steps as are necessary to bring
about a ratification of the tripartite
agreement. and to accomplish this so
promptly that the celebrity OF your action
will serve as an additional notice to
Germany OF the spontaneity and thor
oughness OF American intentions in the

wAsHISGroN, July 27.-Cnemploy-
ment In the Cnited States has ceased to
be a bugaboo. according TO the first an
nual report OF the United States En-
ployment Service.
The report shows that while there Is a
considerable surplus OF ONCE help and
technical and professional men, there Is
an Increasing demand for mechanics in
the building trades, and conditions in most
Of the mechanical industries are stable.
There is shortage of agricultural and
Industrial labor In the West and South.
1t is explained that the surplus OF
Office and technical men lis due partly to
the desire of many persons who have
formerly been laborers or mechanics to
secure positions as clerks or superin-
tendents and also to the large number
OF projects requiring technical abilities
which are being held up pending the rat
tification of the peace treaty. and the
determination OF future Industrial oon-
ditions."
1t Is also Influenced, It Is stated. by
the large number OF trained technical
men and executives being released from
the army.

Some Of the people OF silesia already

sidered that the presence OF an Anieri-

plain that the American force designed
