Long Arbitrated Dispute Between Chili and Peru Ouer Boundaries Settled by Arbitration
 Conducted by Pres. Coolidge

decide by popular vote whether the territories of the above mentioned provinces will remain definitely un- der the dominion and sovereignty of Chile or continue to form a part of Peru" This treaty was ratified in 1884
 Negotiations were started in 1892 between the two governments to reach some agreement as to the con- ditions under which the plebiscite should be held. Those continued for 25 years without any settlement of the question. The disputed terri tory, in the meanwhile, continued in the possession of Chile %
 Blame for the continued failure of the negotiations was placed by each litigart upon the other, Peru claiming in addition that Chile was carrying out a campaign of Chileni- zation in Tacna and Africa.
 In January 1922, seeing that the question was assuming dangerous as poets, the United States invited both Chile and Peru to send representa- tives to Washington for confer ence in a final attempt to reach a settlement of the dispute by arbi- tration
 The invitation was accepted and on July 20, after two months dis cussion, the plenipotentiarie signed a protocol in which they agreed that the difficulties arising out of the un- fulfilled conditions of the treaty of Ancon were to be submitted to the arbitration of the President of the United States of America" who would decide them without appeal after hearing the parties and taking into consideration the arguments and evidence which they may present"
 A subsidiary agreement also was drawn up which set forth more def initely the questions to be decided by the president. This state that there shall be submitted to aritra- ton the question whether, in the present circumstances, the plebis- cite shall or shall not be held" It went on to say that the arbitrator, were he to decide in favor of a pleb- ico oIc hor +O settle the conditions under which it would be held Should the arbitra- tor, however, rule against a plebis- cite, then the two parties interested would discuss the situation creat- ed by this decision," invoking the good offices of the government of the United States" ,should they again fail to reach an agreement
 Both Chile and Peru, subsequent to the exchange of ratification of these two documents, filed their cases and counter cases in the arbitration
 Chile, in its brief, asked the arbi- trator to find in favor the Tacna- Africa question be finally put to rest. It also asserted that the object of the plebiscite provision in the An con Treaty was to enable the inhab- itants of Tacna and Africa to deter m1ne their natic y.

Disputes as to the possession of the provinces of Tacna and Africa have gone on between Chili and Peru since 1894, straining interna- tional relations not only between the two countries immediately concern ed, but also between neighboring states which, more or less openly and consciously, were led to take sides ill the quarrel. With the pass ing of the years national feeling concerning the rnatiel grew more and more heated, until it's solution was considered imperative for the peace of South America.
 The United States was selected in 1922 to act as arbitrator of the diff culty. both sides agreeing to accept the American decision as final It has been generally understood that the finding would be announced in Washington previous to tha inaug- uration of President Coolidge.
 The quarrel arose out of certain unfultilled stipulations of the treaty of peace, known as the treaty of Ancon, concluded in 1883 at the end ol the war between Chile on one side and Peru and Bolivia on the other. War was declared by Chile in 1879, and in a struggle entirely victorious for the aggressive forces, Chile was, after four years of hos tilities in possession of Lima, the southern provinces of Peru, includ- ing Tacna and Africa, and about 100 miles of Pacific littoral formerly be- longing to Bolivia.
 The regions occupied, especially the province of Antofagasta, in the old Bolivian territory, and Tara paca, formerly in Chile, were among the richest of the country in nitrates and guano.
 American efforts at meditation be- gan early in the war and were kept up practically uninterruptedly, un- der the direction of two secretaries of state, Blaine and F'relinghuysen, until 1883. Unfortunately these ef- forts were barren of results in spite of the fact that both secretaries sent special missions to the scene of war to try and arrange an agreement between the belligerents.
 In 1883 plenipotentiaries of the two warning countries met at An con and, after ten months of nego- tiations, concluded treaty of peace The main provisions were that Peru should cede unconditionally to Chile the province of Tarapaca and that the provinces of Tacna and Africa should "continue in the possession of Chile, subject to Chilean legisla- tion and authority for period of ten ye; $ from the date of ratifica- tion of the treaty of peace" At the expiration of that term, the treaty further specified, "a plebiscite will

 Tha lectures of Bishop Quayle were not of the Chautauqua variety, altno he sometimes spoke from the Chau- tauqua platform. From lifelong stu dy, it is said he read a book a day, he had an unlimited repertoire for ad- dresses and humorous punctuations were frequently resorted to.
 Speaking once of the sharp politi- cal feeling in Missouri after the Civil War, Bishop Quayle said that the peo- pie of Clay County were going to hang his father because he voted for Lin coin, But my father refused to stay for the hanging" he added. "He was very peculiar about such things"
 Again, delivering a lecture at the funeral of Bishop Luccock, Bishop Quayle pictured his own death and the meeting thereafter with Bishop Luccock, in heaven. whom he imag- ined as saying. Well. we'll, Quayle; how did you get here? I am surpris- ed, indeed"

THOUGHT HE MIGHT BE
 NOMINATED IN 1924
Bryan Still Had Lingering Hope for Presidency,
 Writer Avows

Chicago, July o7 P,-Charles N. Wheeler, a staff political writer for the Chicago Herald and Examiner in a signed story published yester- day declared that William Jennings Bryan had told him that in the event Of his nomination a fourth time by the democratic convention for president, his first campaign speech would he to an audience of milionaircs in New York.
 He had thought it not inconceiv- able that the New York convention last year might be unable to nom- mate any Of the active candidates and might turn on him, Wheeler wrote, although Bryan said he would not seek the nomination but on the other hand was working for his brother, Charles, then governor of Nebraska.
 If I should he nominated, I would be elected" Wheeler quoted Bryan as saying 10 him confidential ". "I would startle the country with my first campaign speech. It would be in New York and 10 an audience of milltonaires. No one would be admitted who could not vouch for the possession of at least one million.
 Tt was the great moneyed class that defeated mo for president in my three campaigns. But they would not be so solidly opposed to me in another campaign. I am a man of considerable means While not in the millionaire class, have a large fortune as the average man views such matters.
 ''I am not opposed 10 these men accommodating large fortunes. I am for the full protection of property rights and worldly goods rightfully accumulated"
