late today throw the influence of the
Mississippi Valley Association into the
fight against cooperation with Canada
and adoption of the st. Lawrence river
as the preferred route.
Unanimously reported by resolu-

route was approved without debate.
Wallace Dempsey of Buffalo, y. Y,
chairman of the House committee on
rivers and harbors, who introduced the
subject at yesterdays session, saiu the
resolution would give an entirely diff

seizure of the vessel 140 miles from
New York was regarded by officials of
the German embassy as conflicting
with the smuggling treaty of two
years ago between the American and
German governments, The ,emba ssy
assumed that the Carmen was loaded
in the free port of Hamburg, which is
being used by British distilIers for
their shipments abroad, especially to
Canada
In shipping circles here tonight pre-
vailing opinion was that the coast
guard had mistaken the identity of the
ship.
Although A. J. Anderson. command
ant of the New York coastguard diyis-
ion declined to make any statements
concerning the seizure and release of
the vessel, 1t was said she had cleared
for Bremen on September 16 bound
for Halifax, via Rotterdam. with a
cargo of liquor, but she had not
touched Rotterdam
The Carmen, it was said has been
lowering along the Atlantic coast for
the past two weeks. at times coming
within 80 miles of various points near
New York harbor -
1t was said also that the Carmen
hdu iudue NUMEROUS attempts TO COM
municate with the shore but had not
landed any liquor, as the cases in the
hold were intact.
The coastguard still has it's other
"prize"-the Lloyd Royal Beige liner
MERCER. which arrived from Antwerp
Sunday with a cargo of steel and
hams" The vessels cargo was seized
early today and it was discovered the
hams were 1909 bottles of cham
pagnes and cordials. 1t is said the
liner may be seized or a fine of $4,000
imposed.

Bears Numerous
Up FarningtOn Way

Bears are very numerous, accord
ing to reports. and are doing great
deal of damage in this vicinity,
whether they are few or numerous.
During the past few years, the sheep
raising, which was long practically
dead industry in this section. has
been rapidly reviving, and there are
now many fine fiocks Of considerable
size in this and neighboring towns.
For the past week or more some
thing has been killing the sheep in
large numbers, and at first 1t was
laid dogs, but soon evidences that
it was larger and more blood-thirs-
ty animals than any dogs that were
guilty. In at least one instance at
least so sheep in a single flock have
been killed, most of them In one
night, and several other f1ocks have
suffered nearly as great losses. The
town authorities have been notified
and posses have been organized and
are hunting for the bears that are
doing the damage, but thus far with
out results. The killing of sheep by
bears is of almost daily occurrence,
often at widely separated points, and
it seems that whole numerous bear
tribes of Franklin county is fond Oh
mutton.

said to The Associated Press this
evening, but my. task is now here
to fight for approval of the settle
ment which / made in Washington. -
Already there are five names men,
toned as possibilities to succeed NJ
Berenger. Among these is Charles
de Chambragne, minister to Athens,
who is a descendant of Lafayette
and is entitled to call himself Amer
lean as well as French. Others are
Robert de Billy. minister at Buchar-
est; Anne Joseph de Fleuriau, minis
ter at London; Henri Simon. presi-
dent of the finance commission and
Andre Tardieu, French commission
er to the United States during the
war.
NJ. Berenger asked The Associated
Press to convey message of thanks
to the American people for their
courtesy and cordially to him dur
ing his stay in the United States.
Il shall always retain the best re-
collection OF nv sojourn as French
ambassador to the United States"
the message said. 1.-THE mission which
l accepted, ami carried out under the
orders of my government and in full
accord with it, was manifestly thank
less and thorny.
THE history Of all times shows
that it was never easy to settle great
debts between states and such mis-
sion has never been popular any
where.
II am particularly happy o say
how much my mission was facili-
