NEW YORK, March 18.—Charles Warren Fairbanks of Indlanapolls, former vyice president of the United States, came home last night with a message of peace. After an absence of nearly a year on a tour around the world, he arrived in New York harbor on the steamer Mauretanla. On the same vessel came James A. Patten, the Chicago speculator, who was so roughly handled recently on the Manchester exchange. Peace with Japan was the burden of Mr. Fairbanks' interview, and, by a strange co- incidence, he reaches New York in time to be an honor guest with President Taft at a dinner of the American Peace and Arbi- tration league at the Hotel Astor Tuesday night. “President Roosevelt's administration,” sald Mr. Fairbanks, “greatly strengthened the tles of good nelghborhood. between us and other powers, and President Taft is understood abroad as in favor of a pollcy of International peace. Those who now and then fill the air with unfounded rumors of possible trouble between us and any forelgn power do not thereby advance our world- wide interest or contribute to our national prestige. “If there seems to be any confilet of view with respect to Japanese and American rights In Manchurla or elsewhere, it does not follow that that means grave diffi- culty. There Is nothing in the present re- lations between the two countries which can justity any imputation upon the entire £00d faith of either. “I observed among the Brit! same generous regard for the UV peaple the ted States Neuralgia’ pains stop when you use SLOAN'S LINIMENT Don’t Forget Monday, March 21st, the Big RUG SALE HAYDEN'S ’uur creditor's trust. which was 80 signally manifested during our last war.

The nearest approach most of us make to that virtue !ll to get our banks to let us overdraw our | accounts. The fathers have eaten grapes and the children are eating grapefruit. We used to ‘huy apples by the barrel; now we buy them as we would buy jewels, each in its separate wrapper. We used to eat pot foasts; now we must have porterhouse steaks. Our wives used to help the gen- eral housework girl with the cooking: {now we need two maids, a laundress, and & man to wash windows. When we were boys we did chores and wore our father's old clothes; nowadays the American boy needs an allowance, stockings that match his neckties, and a tuxedo jacket. We used |to think it an extravagance to keep & hundred-and-fifty-dollar horse and & hun- dred-dollar buggy; mow we buy an auto- mobile and mortgage our house to pay tor It “Easy come, easy g0," was the old motto; “Easy come, gone before It comes," is the modern. One chief cause of high prices is trust— Everybody wants to sell us something and charge it to our ac- count, So we accumulate them and acquire & habit of reckless expenditure. What dif- | ference does it make whether eggs are % | cents of 80 cents a dozen, It we do not have to pay cash for them? We are spend- thritts in the midst of a credit-styptem | orgy.

Demand fer Rabies Exceeds Supply New Orleans Will Import Another Carload of Infants from New York. NEW ORLEANS, March 17.—The demand for bables here ha: ched such propor- tions that it Is feared there will be a serious shortage in the supply. A carload of bables from the New York Foundling and Orphan asylurs was given away here last week. Many women clamored for bables in vain, and so numerous are the applications that the institution has de- clded to send another carload of Infants to New Orleans. DISCOUNT RATE IS ADVANCED Directors of Bank of England Raise Minimum from Three to Four Per Cent, LONDON, March 17.—The directors of the Bank of England at their weekly meeting today raised the minimum rate of dls- count from 8 to 4 per cent. This action was caused by the continued forelgn demands for gold, which seriously depleted- the the bank's reserves. There are now nearly 425,000,000 lower than at the same time last year and further withdrawals of the metal necessitated measures to increase the bank's holding. For some time Indla has been drawing heavily on the vaila upplies of gold and considerable sums are still wanted to move the large crops. In addition to this demand there s a large number of foreign issues, Including = big delivery of American | bonds In exchange for British gold, to be provided for. Forthcoming internal mone- tary requirements atso demand the bulld- Ing up of the reserve. It {8 quite usual for the bank rate to be advanced at this time of the year. No doubt one of the chief causes therefor is | the government's failyre to collect taxes. This made money so plentiful that it weakened continental exchange on London and made it easter for forelgn markets to | take §old from this center. | D'BULLS Alaskan Coal Land Contest at Washington Real Cause of Ballinger-Pinchot Probe Now Before United States Commissioner. WASHINGTON, March 18.—The contest Involving the question of validity of title of the Cunningham coal claims in Alaska, the basi¢ cause of the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation, was transferred to Washing- ton yesterday, when examination of wit- nesses in this city was begun before United States Commissioner W. J. MoGee. Horace T. Jones, a speclal agent of the general land office, occupled the stand dur- Ing the entire day, his testimony relating primarily to the evidence he and L. E. Glavis collected from the Cunningham entrymen. An echo of the Ballinger- Pinchot investigation was Injected into the proceedings by an Inquiry from E. C. Hughes, chief counsel for the claimants, referring to the sensational statement made by Mr. Jones before the congressional com. mittee that James M. Sherman, in charge of the government cases, practically had thrown the case away by glving counsel for the claimants an opportunity to examine all the evidence collected by the agents of the land office, Mr. Hughes asked the witness if he did not know that counsel for the claimants had coples of nearly all of the affidavits rendered the government agents by the entrymen. The witness denied that he had any such knowledge. He admitted that he told Fred H. Mason, one of the clalmants whose affidavit he procured, that Mr, Ballinger, then com- missioner of the general office, was dis- posed to work for remedlal legislation to permit the acquisition of larger areas of Alaskan coal lands than was then per- missible The witness frequently clashed with the attorneys for the entrymen, who charged that ‘Mr, Jones was Injecting conclusions and arguments into his testimony, As the hearing progressed and the encounters con- tinued with Increased intensity of feeling, Mr. Hughes asked the commissioner if the witness could not be held in contempt in vlew of the disrespect he had exhibited to the authority under which the Inquiry was | | 1sted being prosecuted. The commissioner re. plied that he regretted that he had no such power.

BERLIN, March 17.—Crown Prince Fred- erick Willlam today opened the American Art exhibition. He came with & large staff to the galleries of the Royal Academy, where several hundred persons distin- Bulshed in the officlal, artistio and soclal life of Berlin awaited the prior view by royalty before having thair own enjoyment of the plctures. American Ambassador Hill and all the other members of the American embassy, except Secretary Irwin M. Laughlin, who has been called home by the death of a brother, were present, with thelr wives. Others attending the opening were American Consul General Thackara, Chancellor von Bethemann-Hollweg, Prin- cess Frederick Leopold of Prussia, Min- isters Trott Zu Solz Sydow and Delbrueck, Colonel Brnest von Etzel, formerly military attache at Washington, and Dr. Theodore Lewald, German commissioner general to the St. Louls exposition. The crown prince passed through the gal- leries lelsurely, examining each of the 205 numbers and frequently remarking on the technique, beauty or interest inspired by the subjects. He sald he wished he could !take several of the pictures home with him. He spent some moments in conversa- tion with Ambassador and Mrs. Hill, and also took ocoasion to thank Hugo Reisin- ger of New York for his work In arranging the exhibition. Garl Melcher's portralt of Theodore Roosevelt appeared to have espo- clal interest for the crown prince, who stood before it a long time. The group of Whistler's works also held his close atten- tion. OLD HAND AT THE HELM New General M of the West- ern Union, with Mis Record of Forty Years Belvidere Brooks, the new general man- agor of the Western Union, who takes up the more active duties of Colonel Clowry, was born July 6, 189, In Whoelock, Tex. His father, a practicing phystolan, who had en- In the Second Texas regiment as captaln at the outbreak of the civil war, was killed in the battle of Bhiloh. Bel- vedere Brooks was then 3 years old, and almost from his esrly boyhood he had no play lke other lads he knew, but was obliged to work. Sitting In his oftice at No. 159 Broadway, Mr. Brooks seems to recall the events of his youth with difficulty. He Is & man of large proportions, and his decidedly eagle- like glance seems to be fixed rather upon the things of the present than upon the remote past. His replies were invariably concise. Most of them would barely fill ordinary telegiaph blank. boon & most uneventful “and the story of It ean hardlly be interesting. Yes, I went to sohool until I was 11%. It was a private school in our town which had several tu- tors. From there I went to work as a messenger boy for the Western Union in Navasota, Tex. There are apperently few incidents of his boyhood that Mr. Brooks could recall as worth “I never played ball,”" he sald, “and I never went fishing, hunting and boating as other boys do. 1 don't mean to say I never fished, but It Wwas a rare occasion with me. When I wasn't running messages I studied the code and soon learned to send and recelve mes- ges."" When asked if he had had other ambi- tlons besides those identified with his pres- ent occupation, Mr. Brooks reflected a mo- ment, but failed to remember any.

After mending a wire I would have to ride back at a break- neck pace and tend switchboard, Of coursa while I was away there was no telegraph- ing done." Mr. Brooks' narrative was given In a most deliberate manner as If he were try- Ing to summon up occurrences long erased from his memory. Concerning his success he spoke as little as possible. “I've always worked, and it was natural for me to move up as T went along,” he said on this score “Openings came and I was told to fill them, very lkely because there was no one else, “It has been a kind of digging process for me all my life; I've had to work for everything,” he added in a barely audible tone. ‘“There is one thing that I'm proud of," announced Mr. Brooks, this time not wait Ing for further questioning. I married one of the finest girls in the country.” The memory of the achlevement brought a smilo and a flush to his face. *She w & Miss Gerald, and,” he went on, “I have four sons I'm quite proud of, t0o."—New York Tribune, ey Frank H.
