Des Moines, Sept. 26.-(By A. P.H
Fifteen camp fires marked the third

the Grand Army of the Republic.
The annual review will take place to.
morrow morning.
Reunions here of a number of regi-
ments were the first In some cases
for many years.
Survivors of Eicksburg and Shiloh
gad the largest reunions, probably
for the reason that hundreds of Iowans
fought with Gen. Grant in the cam
paign in Mississippi and Tennessee.
The Iron Brigade, composed mostly
of troops from Wisconsin and neigh
boring states, were also strongly rep.
resented.
Veterans in some cases who had
not seen comrades In more than so
years met again today and renewed
friendships established during the

Navy
by Harding
Cabinet Decides Prohibition
Enforcement Agents Must
Remain Inside Three.
Mile Limit.
British Made Complaint
By GRAFTON WILCOX,
Omaha I,s. Leased Wire.

Washington. Sept, sb,-l'residen
Harding and tho cabinet determined
today to call the prohibition navy OF
the seas outside the three,mile llmil
of tho United tsates.
II was determined that attempts o.
American prohibition officers 4
search foreign ships outside American
territorial waters or TO interfere Will
them IN any way, whether rumlnder
or not. IL not within tho legal right
of this government.
If foreign ships loaded with liquors
contraband In this country, although
outside the three mile limit, establish
connection with the shore of the
United States through their own
agencies, they then will be liable "a
search or seizure by ths prohibition
authorities Of the United States, 9th
erwlse, they will not be interfered
with by this government, no matter
how bulging their holds may be with
liquors for American consumption.
Agents on Guard.
Prohibition officials will continue
to be on guard 10 apprehend runners
gent out to bring in contraband liquor
from lurking foreign ships, but MS
iong as the foreign ship remain out
side the territorial limits and do not
establish connection with American
shores by means OF their own launch
es, or dories, or agents. they Will not
te interfered with.
This decision was announced at the
White House following discussion OF
the issue which had arisen as a re-
suit OF complaints from the British
government that American prohibi-
ton officers mad been unduly interfer-
ing with British commerce.
1t was stated at the White House
that the question OF enforcement OF
the United States prohibition laws on
the high seas had occasioned some
embarrassment and for
this reason the matter Of determining
upon a policy had been considered by
the cabinet. The cabinet deliberation,
significantly, followed a call at the
White House yesterday OF Sir Auck-
land Geddes, the British ambassador,
who is believed to have discussed the
situation with the president.
Embarrassment Ayerted.
The president and his advisers were
forced to the admission upon studying
the subject carefully, that there were
some authorizations in the municipal
law of this country with respect to
search OF foreign ships which were
not in harmony with international
aw. These authorizations II carried
out, it was declared, would involve
he United States in international
The cabinet was placed in the posi-
ton Of choosing between literal en-
forcement of domestic laws and con-.
sequent international complications,
,r recognizing supremacy of interna-
ional law wherein 1t clashed with au-
horizations enacted by the American
congress for domestic protection.
Much to the satisfaction Of the po.
itical "wets" in the United States
md to the disappointment Of profes.
sional dry leaders, who are con-
'tantly lobbying at the capitol, the
president and his advisers determined
o stand firmly by international law.

The blaze originated from an un-
known cause in the Pyntania music
hall, in upper Pera street, one Of the
main thoroughfares. The audience
was stampeded, terror-strlcken. A
general alarm brought TO the scene
all the available salvage corps, and the
allied police and American sailors
helped rescue the excited spectators
and the occupants of nearby buildings.
A hose run from the British embassy
half mile away. helped TO check the
fire. So far as could he ascertained
there was no loss OF life.
Small fires which started simulta
neously in other parts OF the city, ac'
centuated the fears in many quarters
that the oft.repeuted threats Of incens
