Bobbie's ablutions were accom-
panied by howls and shrieks, above
which rose Carries shrill reprimands.
Great guns, Carrie. do you have
that circus every morning." scowled
Warren, when his sister finally reap
peared with Bobbie, clean but mu-

A. ". SMITH GIVES INTERESTING TALK

Ships and Shipping" was the top ic of an unusually interesting talk by Albert W. Smith before several mem bers of the Bridgeport Rotary club in The Stratfield this noon.

He dealt intelligent1y upon existing shipping conditions, and offered several intimate glimpses of the professional side of a ship off, cer's life.

LAN5IN5'S B0OK
 oUT TODAY

Seattle, Marcl 25.-Houghton and Minin tie publishers of former Secretary Of State Lansing book. "The Peace Negotiations" gave the book to the public today. Some of the points stressed in the book are that he advised Wilson not to go abroad. He says the President had no concrete plans for a League of Nations, that Lansing himself was opposed to the self determination scheme, declaring that the phrase is loaded with dynamite. He de- nounced article ten and he favor cd international arbitration. He spoke against the system of man. dates, but his objections were dis missed by the President as legal technicalities Lancing admits that he was against the treaty and rec ognizes his paradoXical position of being against it yet signing it and favoring its ratification. The book throws much light on the nesotia- tions and Is well worth reading.

SOVIET TRADE RELATION
 WIPED IN THE BUD

Washington, March 26.-Yester- day afternoon State Secretary Hughes sent to the Soviet chief, Lenine, the opinion of the new ad- ministration concerning the resump- ton of trade relations with Soviet Russia. If rumor had 1t that the United States would answer Len ine's appeal In the affirmative the public now knows that rumor was wrong. In his communication to Lenine, Hughes tells him that it will be impossible to resume trade rela- tions with Russia under present conditions. The cable was sent to the Russian Soviet representative at Reval. In part Hughes said that if fundamental changes were made, these changes involving a due re- gard to the protection of personal property and the establishment of conditions essential to the mainten- ance of commerce, this government would be glad to have convincing evidence of the consummation of such a change. But until this evi- dence is supplied the government is unable to perceive that there is any proper basis for the considera- tiou of the resumption of trade re- iationS.

LAMBS VCKESHAM ENDORSED BY SECRETARY FALL FUR GOVERNOR
.W|CKERSHAM HAS
 FALLS SUPPORT.

Portland. March 26.--A special communication to the Oregonian says: "Wickersham has been rec ommerded to the President by Sec rstary Fall for the appointment as governor of Alaska" It is under stood that MccBride, the National committeeman for Alaska, as well as some Republican leaders in Western Washington. have endors- ed Hazelett, of CordoVa, for the goTernorship. Those who have been opposing the candidacy Of Hazelett have made the charge that he was the candidate of the Gug- genheims. No evidence has been produced to support this charge, but there is no doubt that he sui fered somewhat from the fact that he had formerly been identified with the Guggenheims in business way.
 When Secretary Fall was ap- preached and asked to confirm or deny the report concerning his rec ommendaton of Wickersham, he declined to confirm or deny the statement.

DENIES U.s.OWES
 FOR LOUISIANA

Washington, March 25.-Secre- tary Mellon of the Treasury, issued a denial of the reports published in Paris, that the Unieted States still owes France money on the Louis jana purchase. This purchase was made by the United States in 1903, during Jefterson's first administra- tion. Spain had ceded Louisiana to France, and, as New Orleans was q principal port, Jefferson intimated to France that the United States could not remain on friendly terms with a strong power controlling one of the principal ports of entry to this country. Negotiations were started with a view to purchase New Orleans and Florida. The war be- tween France and England then came on, and France being in need of money, and also realizing that England, with her strong navy, would wrest the country from her. sold what is known as the Louisi- ana Purchase to the United States for fifteen million dollars. The tSr- ritory included upwards of one mil lion square miles Of territory and had 6 population at that time of be- tween eighty and ninety thousand people. Forty thousand of these were slaves. It iB this sale which is beIRg brought up as that iu which the United States owes France 90 billions It's worth more than that now, but was not at that time.
