LR STONE AN ANGLER FOR ALLIANGE AID Chairman Willcox Publishes Letter Inviting to Confer- ence With Democrat. INSISTENT ON GETTING IT New York, Oct. 24 —(Special Tele- gram.)—The specious character of the attempts made by Mr. Wilson's cam- paign managers to indicate that Mr. Hughes has made a compact with citi- zens of foreign extraction to present to the public their views of how for- eign relations should be administered is further shown by a letter, made public today by Chairman Willcox of the republican national committee. The letter is addressed to Henry Weissman, president of the New York state branch of the German- American alliance. It was written on stationary of the democratic national committee and was signed by an as- sociate of Frederick B. Lynch, chief of its bureau of political organizations and clubs, Invitation From Stone. In this letter Mr. Weissman was in- vited in polite terms to meet Senator Stone, chairman of the foreign rela- tions committee of the United States senate, who was in New York on the avowed mission of winning over to Mr. Wilson’s support certain citizens of German birth, “The absurd and disingenuous phase of the whole matter,” said Mr. Willcox, “is that while Mr. Wilson's managers have charged specifically on two separate occasions that Mr. Hughes was compounding with a cer- tain branch of the electorate, they themselves were covertly soliciting, in a most abject way, the support of members of the German-American alliance.” This is the letter to Mr. Weiss- man: Democratic National Committee Head- quarters, 30 East Forty-second Street, New York, Sept. 11.—My Dear Mr. Weiss- mann: Senator Stone, chairman forelgn re- latfons committee, will be at the Waldorf on Thursday; don't you and a few of your friends want to have an informal talk with him on Thursday or Friday evening? Phone me on recelpt of this, Murray Hill, 8190, and oblige. Yours very truly F. W. JANSSEN. Date Significant. “Mr. Weissmann is a lawyer at 44 Court street, Brooklyn,” Mr. Willcox went on. “The date, September 11, is significant, because five days later, on September 16, occurred the famous party at Terrace Garden, when Sena- tor Stone sat up so late making ab- ject plans to leading citizens of Ger- man birth, or extraction, to support the Wilson cause. He directed his plans to meet them, not as American citizens, but as Germans in the United States. Mr. Weissmann says that he did not reply to the letter, but that two days later he got a telephone message from the writer, Mr. Janssen, asking why no reply had been sent. “Mr, Janssen expressed himself as anxious to have Mr, Weissmann ac- cept the invitation, because Senator Stone was then at the Waldorf and wa$ expecting him to call.Mr. Weiss- mann replied thgt, inasmuch as he respected the office which Senator Stone held he could not visit him, be- cause he feared that the kind of con- versation that must necessarily ensue would be highly disagreeable to the senator. Charges Are Unsupported. “In all of the attempts made by democratic managers, including Mr. Norman Hapgood, unsupported state- ments have been made that Mr, Hughes made explicit promises of support. Not one shred of document- ary evidence has been produced on that point. On the contrary, the charges have fallen down in every particular. Moreover, the hypocrisy of the charge has been made ap- parent through the production of conclusive evidence that Mr, Wilson’s managers were trying to do exactly what they charged Mr. Hughes with having done. “Mr. Hughes has neither agreed nor promised—I use the words of Mr, Hapgood and the writer of the state- ment put out in the morning papers by the democratic national committee to reflect in his public addresses the opinions of any particular group. ‘What Mr. Hughes has done and what he will continue to do, is to stand for undiluted Americanism. For Straight Out Americanism, “Neither, Mr. Hughes, nor any member of this committee has sec- retly solicited the support jof any one, who is not willing tol[go the whole road for a straight out Ameri- canism. Let me quote the statement which Mr. Hughes made in his ad- dress of acceptance: Whether native or naturalized, of What- ever race or creed, we have but one coun- try and we do not intend to tolerate any division of allegiance. “The injection into the campaign of a reflection of the dreadful forces which are convulsing Europe has been done solely ~nd exclusively by Mr. Wilson’s ov.. managers. 1 challenge them to produce the least iota of evi- dence to show that this committee has countenanced anything less than the iliterests of the entire American peo- ple. “Mr. 1ghes has pleaded for the support of no faction. No evidence can be protluced to show the contrary, because there is none.” Omaha Sends More Men To Quiet Mexican Muddle Forty-eight recruits and six officers will leave Fort Crook at 11 o’clock to- night, enroute to the Mexican border, The Burlington will handle the party into Kansas City, and from there to San Bernito, Tex., the movement will be over the Rock Island.

GREY SAYS ALLIES WON'T TALK PEAGE Foreign Minister Thinks It Is All Right for Neutrals to Look to Future. MUST HAVE GUARANTEES London, Oct. 24.—Another impor- tant contribution to the discussions on peace was made by Viscount Grey, secretary for foreign affairs, at a luncheon given today by the Foreign Press association, at which the dip- lomatic representatives of all the al- Yied countries were present. The foreign secretary made it plain that the allies were not prepared to discuss peace terms, but welcomed any efforts by neutral countries for a combination to prevent future wars. Some of the most important passages of the secretary’s speech follow: “I would like to talk, ngt, indeed, about actual conditions of peace, which can only be stated and formu- lated by the allies together and not by any one of them separately, but about the general-objects which the allies must secure in this war. And to do that I would ask you to recall that we must never forget how the war came about. If we are to ap- proach peace in a proper spirit it can only be by recollecting and recalling, and never for a moment forgetting, what was the real cause of the war. Must Have Guarantees. “Some people say: ‘Oh, we need not go back over that old ground now; everybody knows it. “You cannot go back to it too often. It affects the conditions of peace. Germany talks of peace; its statesmen talk of peace today. They say ‘Ger- many must have guarantees against being attacked again.’ If this war had been forced upon Germany that would be a logical statement. It is precisely because it was_not forced upon Ger- many, but was forced by Germany upon Europe, that it is the allies who must have guarantees for future peace. Passing to the position of the neu- tral countries, Viscount Grey said, in answer to a question as to what they could do: Work for Neutrals.« “I belieye the best work neutrals can do for the mament is to try to prevent a war like this from happen- If the nations had been united in such an agreement, and a resolution to insist in 1914 that the dispute must be referred to a con- ference or The Hague, that the ‘Bel- gian treaty must be observed, there would have been no war. “Nations fighting for their existence with daily increasing prospects of seeing victory brought nearer, still knowing that if they stop short of victory, they stop short of everything for which they are struggling, cannot be expected to spend much time think- ing about what might happen after victory is secured. But the neutrals can do it. I observe that not only President Wilson, but Mr, Hughes, is supporting a league started, not with the object of interfering with the belligerents in this war, but which will do its part in making peace se- cure in the future, . “It is a work of neutral countries to which we' should all look with favor and hope. Only we must bear in mind, if the nations after the war are able to do something effective by binding themselves with the common object of preserving peace, they must be prepared to undertake not more than they are able to uphold by force, and to see, when the time of crisis comes, that it is upheld by force. Will You Play Up? “The question we must ask, then, is: ‘Will you play up when the time comes?” It is not merely the sign manual of presidents and sovereigns that is really to make that worth while; it must also have behind it parliaments and national sentiments. “Supposing the conditions of 1914 occur again and there is such a league in existence. Everything will depend upon whether national sentiment be- hind it is so permeated by the lessons of this war as to compel each nation, as a matter of vital interest, to keep peace other than by force.” Potato Shipping Season Over; Prices Will Rise The, potato-shipping season is ractically over so far as northern ebraska is concerned. The crop is about all shipped out, the last sales having been better than $1 per bushel. With potatoes in storage, it is as- serted that instead of prices being lower they will be higher as cold weather “approaches. It is said that the stocks iff storage are the lightest in years and commission men think that potatoes will become scarce be- fore the new crop begins to arrive from the south. Two U. S.

SHOULD KNOW THE SERVANTS ENGAGED Superintendent Schreiber Says Women Should Not Hire Strangers as Servants. WANTS REFERENCE BUREAU “Why don't learn some- thing of the identity of persons they engage to work as servants?’ asked Superintendent Schreiber of the Board of Public Welfare. He had just read the account of a young woman gaining entrance to an Omaha home on a worthless recomniendation women and then absconding with $1,000 worth of jewels. “Women who engage servants should demand recommendations or references which will stand investiga- tion. This would seem to be ordi- nary business prudence,” added Mr. Schreiber. At a meeting of the board Thurs- day evening the superintendent will propose the establishment of a cen- tral bureau of reference for house servants, for the protection of house- holders as well as for worthy serv- ants.

Big Locomotive With Nc;ihingr to Do But Keep Geraldine Farrar Warm Hot water bottles—those common- place rubber things that carry visions of toothache, neuralgia and cold feet —are luxuries to certain persons in certain walks of life. But only a few favored ones, a very few favored ones, indeed, have placed at their disposal great big, hot railway locomotives, with naught to do but keep that fa- vored one—that very favored one— comfy and cozy and woozy and warm. Miss Geraldine Farrar of the Ellis Grand Opera company, however, is one of these very favored few. Since her arrival in Omaha Sunday night she has had one of these big iron lo- comotives attached to her private car in order that she should not experi- ence the slightest discomfort from the chill blasts of Nebraska’s October winds, : And this fact is due solely to- the courtesy of officials of the Missouri Pacific. 4 When the noted singer's private car was brought to Omaha Sunday night it was “set out” at the Webster Street station and at the Webster street station there are no steam con- nections. In consequence, the yardmaster had but one “out,” so he called a fireman and assigned him to an idle engine which was promptly connected to the singer's private car. And since that _time the fireman had had nothing to do but shovel coal and keep hi on the steam guage and Miss F: has been comfy and cozy and woozy and warm.

No reason why he should take his Dr.Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin Rglieves Baby When Other Medicines Failed There is nothing so necessary to a child’s health and comfort as regular- ity of the bowels. All children are es- pecially susceptible to stomach trou- ble and any overstrain of the sensi. tive organs has a tendency to ob- struct elimination. This condition is responsible for much of the illness of childhood. To relieve constipation a mild laxa- tive should be employed. Cathartics and purgatives are violent in their ac- tion and should be avoided. Mrs. Alfred Du Bois, Mt. Holly, N. J,, says Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is without doubt the most effective rem- | edy for constipation the has ever used and that it is the only remedy she could find for her baby. Little Earl was badly constipated during his first ear and nothing she tried seemed to Kelp him until she got a bottle of Dr. Caldwell‘s Syrup Pepsin.
