 Remaining on the agenda are the questions of Siberia, Tap and Shan tung. Siberia will bring before the conference several questions of the same nature as were met in the case of China.

 The conference on Pacific and Far Eastern questions comprising China, Belgium, Portugal and Holland in ad- dition to the five powers in the major conference, have taken action as fol- lows:
 Four Root Points"
 Adopted in plenary session the four Root points" binding the nine partic- ipating powers to respect the inde- pendent, territorial and aiministra- tive integrity of China; to provide un- embarrassed opportunity for China to develop and maintain an effective government; to maintain equal oppor- tunity for all in China to refrain from taking advantage of existing COndi- tions to obtain special rights which would abridge the rights of friendly states.
 Adopted in plenary session resolu- tions of extra a-territoriality, providing for the sending of a commission of jurists to investigate conditions in China with a view of abOlishing such rights and in the meantime agree ing to abolition in principle.
 Adopted in plenary session resolu- ton binding signatory nations to re- spect neutrality of China in which she was not a part.
 Adopted in plenary session resolu- tion against treaties not in harmony with Root four points. Adopted in committee of the whole resolutions declaring for WithdraWa of foreign postoflices from China, and limiting use of foreign radio stations in China.

 Tour-Powcr Pact.
 Outstanding in any tabulation of ac- mplishments is the our-poWer agreement reached in plcnary session Saturday. By this covenant the United States Great Britain France and Japan agreed as between them selves to respect their rights in rela- ton to their insular possessions and dominions in the region of the Paci- fic ocean" for the next ten years.
 Upon ratification of this agreement, the o-Japanese alliance, long re- garded with dsquict in the United States and several British dominions will be abrogated.
 Limitation of naval armaments, the first subject on the conference agenda, remains practically in the status in which it was found after Secretary Hughes had declared the American proposal for a reduction of capital ships to a 5-5-3 ratio basis between the United States, Great Britain and Japan.
 The Naval Problem
 Great Britain and Japan both ac- cepted the proposal in principle i'm mediately, the former making reserra- tions as to submarine tonnage and re garding some details of the ten year naval construction holiday which was to ensue and Japan, filling demand for a slightly larger proportionate tonnage. InterwoVen with the ensu- ing negotiations has been the ques- ton of Pacific naval bases and forti- fcations upon which no formal action has yet been taken but, it is under stood Japan has received assurance of continuation of the status quo.

PLANS NEW UPTOWN HOTEL


". Abilene win have a new brick four
story hotel covering the portion OF
the ground occupied by the wooden
frame buildings at Second and
Spruce, according to the plans OF J.
A. Forster, the southside hotel man
who is now in control Of the hotel
company that bought the half block
east of the alley and bounded by
Third, Spruce and Second.
II have now 1873 shares Of the $50
shares in the company" said he,
s'and am making plans for building
next spring. My idea Is to build a
four story brick building facing Sec
ond street and extending on Spruce
to the Smoke House building, put In
elevator, have all rooms with baths,
q lobby in the corner and use the
ground floor for a restaurant, etc.
but not have any dining room
az part Of the hotel. This town
does not need any more store build
inxs nor too much hotel. II 1t works
out, I can then build on the Spruce
street side and even on the Third
street side, but for the present only
ON the Second street front. Some OF
the other stockholders want to cover
the entire half block with a hotel
only two or three stories, but I think
I have the right plan to play safe"

URGED TO BOIL BRUSHES
u. S. Health Reports Say Anthrax
Is Traced to Brushes

u. s. Health Reports Say Annrax
ID Traced to Brushes
The public health reports. covering
only q part of the United States,
show that during the year 1919 1.-THE
last year for which accurate figures
are available) there were reported In
this country 90 cases Of anthrax,
from which 80 patients died. Note
the rate Of mortality!
Anthrax Is a disease which is COM
mon among horses and cloven- hoOfed
animals; 1t is contracted by humans
from direct contact With infected AMI
mails, hair or hides.
This disease Is Of interest to bar
bers because Of the fact that some
cases Of anthrax appearing in this
country in recent years have been
traced to infected shaving brushes.
They are urged to boil all new fOr
unused brushes for four or five hours
continuously before placing them In
service. II the bristles are not set
In rubber the brushes may boil to
pieces; brushes set in glue should
be soaked twenty-four hours In
solution OF fOrmalin 40 per cent? or
bichloride Of mercury Zone white tab
let to quart Of water). Before the
disinfection Is completed the soaking
solution should be heated to q mod
crate temperature (120 degrees) for
several hours.

MONEY UNDER FALSE PRETENsI


Approximately $1,OOO,OOO or state
funds have been. distributed during
the last twenty-five years to cities
of the state which have received the
money under "false pretenses," &C.
cording to Frank L. Travis, state su-
perintendent Of insurance. This
money has been distributed, he said,
In connection with the firemen's re-
lief associations, which have received
an average Of from $4,000 to $780,
900 q year from the firemen's insur-
ance fund.
This misapprOpriation Of the fund
has come about because the fire de-
partments Of the Kansas towns and
cities that are member associations
have not obtained proper charters,
according to Superintendent Travis.
The state law enacted in 1895 re-
quires that each fire department de-
string to receive benefits under the
law shall be chartered by the state.
OF the 278 city departments hiatt are
members. 90 per cent Of these do not
have proper charters. >.
Abilene is one Of the cities without
a charter, according to T. J. Rexroat
but as soon as the city learned the
law steps were taken to secure a
charter and the application Is now
in the state Office.

DEATH TOLL IS UNCERTAIN

Pueblo, Colo, June 13.--Pueblc
may never know the exact number Of
the dead. The food waters that
swept across the city probably have
given unnatural graves to scores Of
persons caught either In the railroad
yards or the foreign settlements Of
the Grove and the Peppersauce bot
toms. That Is the opinion many
rescue workers here have formed,
basing their belief on the calcula-
tions Of the number Of persons be-
lieved to have been In the flooded
area as compared to the number OF
bodies that have already been recOv-
cred.
So far the Pueblo morgues have re-
ceived about fifty bodies. A report
for districts to the south along the
Arkansas River Valley would indicate
that about fifty bodies have been re-
claimed from the river, bringing the
total to a few more than one hun
dred. Hs .-.
It has been estimated that about
six thousand Mexicans, Italians and
negroes lived in the sections known
as the Grove and the Peppersauce
Bottoms. Persons familiar with In
habitants Of those districts insist that
approximately five hundred men, wo-
men and children there were caught
like rats in a trap, and that they
have met their deaths, and either
been swept down the river or buried
under the deep silt and quicksand de-
posted by the water throughout the
bottoms,

MAY APPEAL THEIR VALUATION
Merchants Declare They Have Been
Assessed Too High

The board Of equalization which
has adjourned, made practically no
changes In the assessments, though
there were many vigorous protests
from merchants who presented their
invoices to show that they We're as
sessed too high by the recent in
creases In their valuations. They
declared that the increases were I'M
warranted and may appeal to the
state tax commission. In the argu-
nents they presented Figures to sup
port their claims that the town
properties are assessed more In pro-
portion to their value than farm
properties. They showed that lands
In the bottoms around Abilene that
sell for $3.50 to $500 an acre are
assessed at 500 to $125; that fine
farms in North Dickinson are as
sessed at only $40 to, $50 an acre
though worth on the market much
more. They stated to the board that
beautiful farm dwellings recently
erected In North Dickinson costing
anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000,
with all the barns and outbuildings,
are assessed as Improvements" at
$1,100 to $1,000; many sets Of fine
farm buildings are assessed at $500
each; one farm In east Dickinson
with one Of the finest houses in the
county, silos, tenant house, big barn,
etc., has its improvements" all put
in at $1,000. They claimed that
town property is assessed at prac-
ticaNy its full market value. The
business men Of the, towns declared
that they were willing to pay their
full share Of the taxes but declined
to pay more that was just IN COM
parison with other property. The
state tax commission raised farm
values here 20 per cent last year and
II the matter is carried up there may
be another increase, provided the APP
peal is bolstered with facts accord
ing to the figures given at the board
