Powers Agree

Adopt Hughes Proposal 10
Abandon Spheres of In

ting Business Monopolies
Will Reveal All Pacts
Accept American Resolution
for Ending Secrecy in
Treaties and Contracts
BY Thomas Steep

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-Steps de-
signed to curtail foreign control of
China's internal affairs were taken by
the conference committee Of Pacific
and Far Eastern questions to-day
through the adoption of Secretary of
State Hughcs's proposal for the dis
closure of all secret treaties and COM
mltmcnts respecting China and an
agreement to abandon in the future the
policy of establishing spheres OF in
Huence for exclusive trade privileges.
The resolution designed to end
spheres Of influence was proposed by
Elihu Root. 1t reads as follows:
"Resolved, That the signatory powers
Will not support any agreements by
their respective nationals with each
other designed to create spheres Of in
Huence or to provide for the enjoy
ment OF exc elusive opportunities in des-
lgnated parts of Chinese territory."
Under the agreement for divulging
secret treaties each power will submit
q list of its existing covenants with
China and hereafter will within sixty
days file notice to all the other powers
OF any new agreement entered into.
China will have the privilege of max
ing known not only all commitments it
has made to foreign nations, but will
include in its list concessions granted
to the nationals of any country.
Most of China's concessions to pri-
vate interests were given to the ma
tionals Of Japan and Great Britain.
Sir Auckland Geddcs, on behalf of the
British delegation, said his govern
ment was already prepa red to submit
its list. Baron Shidehara, the Jap
anesc Ambassador, withdrew ar OBJ
lection on the part Of Japan to China g
making known contracts entered into
with Japanese nationals. Baron Shide
nara said his country welcomed the
policy of full publicity for diplomatic
relations with China as promising a
new era for the welfare of the Orient.
Agreement Retroactive
The Hughes proposal was adopted
unanimously after important amend
ments were made to clarity and extend
the scope Of the plan to throw light
on China's past international relations
As adopted the agreement is not only
retroactive, since it will disclose all
commit tments made in the past, but
provides for full publicity in the fu-
turc, so that no treaty signed by China
can remain secret longer than sixty
days.
The Hughes proposal as adopted
reads:

cembcr 81 wit> her seven-ycar-old
daughter, Ellanora, was found yestcr-
day in Mount Gilead, n. c. She is at
the home of the Rev. DR.. Oscar Hay
wood there. Whether her daughter is
with her is not known.
Mrs. Bull arrived here 1rom Atlanta,
Ca was the telegram sent By the
clergyman. "Her mind is almost
blank. Have taken her to my house."
The telegram was in answer to ono
sent to him By James Smith, editor of

Ilshed III Hackensack, y. j. Mr.. Smith
learned that Ralph Costa, the youth
who drove Mrs. Bull TO the Lachawanna
station, remembered her saying several
times that she would like TO see Ur.
Haywood, her former pastor when the
family lived in New York.
Discovering that DR.. Haywood now
was pastor of Baptist church in
Mount Gilead, Mr.. Smith had telc-
gram sent to him asking if Mrs. Bull
was with him.
Mrs. Bull not here. Why do you
ask" was the reply that he got short.

Husband Receives Message
Several hours too late to &c. t-s
news into his paper, Mr.. Smith re-
ceived the second message from Dr.
Haywood, in which the clergyman said
that Mrs. Bull had arrived since the
first reply was sent.
similar message was received at
the same hour by the missing woman's
husband at his home, in Ridgewood
and he started for Mount Gilcad late
yesterday afternoon.
Ms. Bull had been missing for more
than two weeks before her husband de-
cidcd that publicity might aid the
search for her, and gave the facts to-
the newspapers. Within two days after
the news was printed Ralph Costa, who
had disappeared at the same time,
turned up in Toronto, where he had
seen an account Of the search for the
missing woman and for himself.
He returned Friday and said that he
believed Mrs. Bull was no longer alive.
He had not seen her, he said since
leaving her and Ellanora at the rail
road station, but the woman was over
wrought. he said. and had declared she
would kill herself rather than return.

POpe Reported Dead at Six This Mornino.
Weakened Heart Breaks Down Under Strai
S,pordfsh Kill Whales
BY Hundreds in Battle

LONDON. Jan 21.-That the
monsters of the deep fight in
groups, as we'll as engage in per-
sonal encounters. is testified to
by Captain G. Evered Poole, a
commissioner in the Gold Coast
Survey, who writes the following
to his brother concerning an OK
perience during his voyage from
England:
Between Sierra Leone and
Sekondi we steamed through, for
over an hour, blood-red sea, and
saw hundreds of whales dead or
dying on the surface Of the water.
Some were just able to move
slowly along; few, if any, could
move quickly. There must have
been a sanguinary battle, sup
posed to have been put up by
swordfish. 1t was most ap-
palling sight, and the extent of
the bloody expanse must have
represented the death of many
more whales than were visible"

Kansan, Once am invalid, Has
His lOlst Birthday To-day

EUFEKA, Kan, Jan. 21.-One year
past the century mark and still phys-
cally and mentally alert and taking
great interest in politics and current
events is George A. Gordon, of this
town. Tomorrow is his 101st birthday.
His extreme age has brought Mr..
Gordon number of distinctions.
Members of his family claim that he is
the only grandfather of Civil War
veteran now living and one of few, if
not the only man living to-day, who
heard Revolutionary War stories from
his grandfather, who took part in it.
"My grandfather, George Gordon, of
Cumberland, Pa, was a soldier in the
American Revolution" related Mr.,
Gordon recently. at was my great
uncle, William Armstrong, who cap
tured the six Hessians and took them
into Washington's camp, and said i'll
reply to the Generals question as to
how he captured them: Faith, I sur

rounded them recall as boy hear
ing my grandfather tell of this and
other incidents of the Revolutionary
War"
The attainment of an extreme old
age is matter Of much satisfaction
to this centenariar, because earlier in
life he was in i'll health. An overland
trio to Texas during the wild west"
times Of buffalo stampedes and Indian
raids improved his health SO much
that he decided to take up farming.
Mr.. Gordon has lived in the lifetime
of every President except Washington.
He has voted at every Presidential
election In eighty years, except one,
and still has most Of his natural teeth.
He put on glasses only a few years
ago.

LONDON, Jan. %. The
Pope died at 6 o'clock this
morning, according to a Reuter-
dispatch from Rome.

ROME. Sunday, Jan. % (By
The Associated Press) At 8
o'clock this morning DR.. Cheru-
bini, Cardinal Giorgi and the
Pope's nephew gathered around
the bedside, the end seemingly
near. The Pope seemed to be
in considerable distress; his
extremities were already be-
coming cold.
DR.. Battistini, chief attend
ing physician. who had just
visited the Pope, declared at
1855 a. m, Rome time, to-day.
that his condition was more
critical. A fatal issue ap-
peared then to be imminent.
This announcement followed
a statement at ! a. M, Rome
time, that a slight improve
ment had been noticed.
At 1:10 a. M, Rome time, DR..
Battistini stated that the Pope
might live three or four hours At
the maximum. At that hour definite
symptoms Of approaching death were
marked
Pontiff's Mind Clear
A little earlier DR.. Cherubini, an
other attending physician, declared
that the Pope's condition was hope
less, but that he might live for some
time yet, if paralysis did not de-
velop, which was always to BE-
feared. (The difference in time be-
tween Rome and New York is six
hours.)
Erroneous Reports Spread
1.-THE Pope was so near death
yesterday that reports of his ac-
tual demise were sent out from
Rome by Reuters Agency, and
another report telegraphed from
London spread over the world.
Both these reports several hours
later were shown to be in error
by dispatches transmitted through
Paris and London. Previous to
receipt Of positive denial Of
these reports, Reuter- dis
patch from Paris received in Lon
don quoted a message from Rome
timed at p. nj, Rome time,
stating the Pontiff was still alive
at that hour. A Havas dispatch
to Paris, which left Rome at s
o'clock, made similar statement,
adding the Pontiff was in much
pain.
News Appeared Official
THE London report Of the
Pope's death was given to' sew
eral correspondents by a member
Of Cardinal Bourne's staff, who
said that official news to that ef-
feet had been received. The Asso.
ciated Press London representa-
tive also telephoned the Cardi-
nails residence and was told that
the report was official. The de-
nial from the Cardinals residence
was not made until the news had
been sent broadcast.
[Other reports of the Pontih's
death were circulated in and from
Berlin through the Havas Agency
and Wolff Bureau. One of these
reports was received in the Reichs-
tag late in the afternoon. All the
members Of that body stood while
President Loeb paid q tribute to
the Pope's memory.
