TAT I LAUDSESCH-
 CUMM|NS BILL IN IOWA CITY SPEECH

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Oct. 22.-Former President w. H. Taft. speaking here tonight, took occasion to laud the Esch- Cummins railroad bill, which he pro- nounced a great piece of legislation of which Iowans should be proud because of it's co-authorship, and in this con- nection urged support of Senator AL bert B. Cummins for reelection.
 The eX-president's remarks were largely confined to the league of na- tions issue and compared President Mckinley's negotiation of the treaty ending the Spanish American war with that of President Wilson in negotiat- ing the Paris covenant He said in part:
 When Mir. Mckinley had to nego- tiate the treaty of Paris, ending the Spanish war, which presented an un- equally difficult problem to the Amer lean people" said Judge Taft, The ap- pointed on the commission to nego- tiate the treaty Republican and Demo- cratic senators. It was urged that this be done by MT. Wilson, but he paid no attention to the suggestion. He ap- pointed on the commission men whose membership on the commission carried no weight whatever, with the country or party, and he went himself, to dc the whole thing.
 T did not object. to his going over, said Mir. Taft, continuing. Indeed. ] | thought it would educate him in the af- fairs of the world, but in so far as il minimized the necessity of appointing able men on the commission to assist him. it had bad results"

COLBY ACCUSES
 EL|HU ROOT IF
 REINSTATEMENT IF ARTICLE X
Says Recent Speech of Root In New York Is Plain Mis- Statement of League Covenant
IRepublIcan A. p. Leased wIrel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Secretary Colby issued a statement tonight as- sertiNg that there was a plain mis- statement of facts" in the recent ad- dress made by Elihu Root, dealing with the league of nations covenant.
 T fear that the only point in MT. Roots mind was to serve his party, MT. Colby's statement said. MT. Root is wrong. What he says is wrong. What he seeks to do is wrong. I half suspect Mir. Root knows this"
 Mir. Colby addressed his statement particularly to the question of article ten of the covenant as presented by Mir. Root.
 "Mr Roots statement that article ten is 'an attempt to carry over and continue for all time, as part of the organization to preserve peace, the ex- ercise of power by the conquerihg na- tions in closing the war, is plain mis- statement of fact" MT. Colby said Indeed. it is a complete inversion of the truth.
 His further objection to the substi- tuition in any event of physical ol armed force for the moral force whicl is relied upon in the other provisions of the covenant, indicates a complets | insensibility to the instruction o events and the lessons of the world: recent narrowing experience.
 The idea of an international couF of justice, to which MT. Root has jus contributed his enthusiastic labors, haC admittedly been a lifeless thing, hope less beyond realization, conceded b. it's sponsors to be impotent and i'm practicable under the success of tn league of nations, effected a politica organization of the world powers. fo the first time gave the court a back l ftr will be effective. Ifthere is one thinl which the war has taught the nation of the world, it is that the project discussed at the two Hague confer ences for restraining war and tn peaceful regulation of internationa conduct. were utterly valueless an' l illusory.
 Tt is article ten. which for the frs time, has given vitality and signifi canoe to the project of a league of ma tions. It is this underlying and ulti ceptible of being invoked in the fina analysis by the nations charged wit the preservation of world peace, tha makes the league a real thing instea of an academic theme.
 Not that force will be employed indeed it is the hope of the sponsor of the league and it's adherents tha the practical unanimlty Of the WOrl in the acceptance of the new covenan will give to the provisions it contains a moral pressure of such weight as | obviate the recourse under any cen ceivable conditions to force; and ye the fact that the mechanism of fore is present in the league as a means ( } final and conclusive assertion of 1t will becomes fin itself an element in tn moral strength of the covenant"

 St. Ivers and Bassett talked freely after their capture. They said that their first move after escaping from the prison was to steal an automobile nearby. They drove at top speed for the state line and into Connecticut. At Derby. Conn, they held up a man in another oar and stole his overcoat and that of a companion, some money and the number plate of the car, which they attached to the automobile they were driving.
 Always with the idea in mind ot eventually reaching Canada, they drove back and forth over Connecticut roads during Sunday and Monday, hoping to throw pursuers off the trail On Tues day they dashed into Western Massa- chusetts and managed to find their way to Springfield and Worcester, and then turned northward into New Hampshire. At Concord they stole an other automobile. Bassett drove this car, followed by St. Ivers in the other They returned to Henniker and tried to rob a lunch room proprietor, firing one shot at him, but were frightened away by the arrival of armed neigh bors. They then abandoned the car in which they had come into the state and proceeded in the stolen Concord automobile.
 | On Wednesday morning their gaso- 1 line had given out and they obtained a small quantity at a garage in War, ner, when this was used up they aban- doned the car and seeing men approach took to the woods.

LONDON, oct. 22-The strike situ- ation tonight was considered more hopeful by the fact that the peace con versations between the government and miners leaders are continuing un- broken. There were no new develop ments. however.
 At a joint meeting tomorrow be- tween the rail men and miners. from which it is hoped peace may spring, it is hoped the suggestion may be made that the railway men postpone their | strike, set for Sunday night, should there be no agreement between the government and miners by Saturday, until after the trade unions confer ence on Wednesday.
 The greatest anxiety exists among | Londoners, for if the rail strike be- comes effective Sunday night the un- derground tube railways will cease working. Also the trans and busses will suspend operations. The bus and tram drivers, however, have ex- pressed themselves as reluctant to joir the movement. There is division among the railroad men with regard to strike. large section of then opposing it.
 J. H. Thomas, general secretary ot the National Union of Railwaymen has authorized the statement that h, is against the strike.
 This has brought about the very gen, eral opinion that there will not, il any case, be rail strike before Wed nesday, but should it transpire tn, ministry of transport has an emer gency plan in readiness for immediat, operation of the railways by volunteers and all machinery created for the pur pose during last years strike will b, utilized.
