W. A. PETERSON FORMERLY OF
PLATTSM0UTH, RECEIVES A
PATENT FOR INVENTION.
ELECTRIC RECORDING ' SCALE
Which Weighs Automatically, And
Makes Record of Same, With
Tare Fcr Wagon.
From Wednesday's Dally.
On the return of J. C. Petersen
from Excelsior Springs, Mo., where
he has been at the bath house of W.
A. Petersen his nephew, of whom
most of the people of this city well
know, although he has been away
for the past ten years, and who ac
companied him on his arrival this
morning.
Mr. Will A. Petersen who is en
gaged in the business of conducting
a bath house at Excelsior Springs,
is also doing something along the
line of invention. He has Just re
ceived a patent on an electric scale,
which when applied to the matter
of weighing coal, grain or other
commodities, connects the scale
automatically, running the weight
out to the desired point on the beam.
which when tipped breaks the con
nection, and stops the motor, and
should it have gone past for any
reason the connection on the lower
side of the beam will make and re
verse current shoving the weight
backwards on the bea'm thus assur
ing the correct weight, for an ac
curate adjustment breaks both cur
rents and leaves the scale in perfect
balance.
Mr. Petersen's errand here was
for the purpose of having the West
ern Machine Company manufacture
a model of "the scale, on wjiich he
has a patent, and also to manufac
ture the scales for the trade.
When arriving here he found Mr.
Sharp the proprietor had departed
for Kansas City last evening and
was not able to see him today.
Mr. Petersen will remain Tor over
night and tomorrow to see Mr. Sharp
before returning home.
Besides the electric scale Mr.
Petersen has also received recently
a patent on a device for automatical
ly coupling the pipe lines in cars.
which carries the steam and air on
passengers and freight cars. and
would thus save the time of work
men) as well as prevent their risk
of life in entering between the cars
for making the couplings, as they
are compelled to do with the appara
tus as used now.
AN AFTERNOON OF CLEANING.
From Wednesday's Dally.
St. Mary's Guild of St. Luke's
Church met at the church yester
day afternoon. Each had come well
armed with soap and clothes and
prepared to do some cleaning. The
entire afternoon was spent in giv
ing the church parlors a thorough
cleaning The walls were dusted,
the floors swept, the pews and other
furniture cleaned. In the meantime
the carpets had received their share
of cleaning. Those failing to ap
pear on the scene will be duly fined
for their absence. These fines will
be added to the treasury . of St.
Mary's Guild. The ladies were quite
tired after their strenuous after
noon but feel well repaid as the re
moval of the dust and grime bright
ened many a dingy corner and made
it appear as new.
v I wish to express my appreciation
for the many kind acts of my
friends, who, when trouble came
fast and thick, with the loss of my
dear wife, the burning of my home.
and loss of stock, they so nobly re
sponded to the generous impulses of
love and friendship, in doing m the
kindly acts, as well as making dona
tions to help over financial difficul
ties. Dear friends please accept my
sincere thanks and may such trouble
should it come to you, be mitigated
by true and fast friendship to sus
tain you. IVAN J. TAYLOR. '

AGREE UPON

IOUS STATUS
CITY OF FIUME GOES TO ITALY
AT END OF TWO
YEARS.
THEIR SHARE OF THE SPOILS
Premier Orlando and Foreign Minis
ter.. Sohnino Leave Rome for
Paris ; What Brings Them Back
London, May 5. According to a
dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph
from Paris the question regarding
Fiume has been settled in full agree
ment with the Italian government
on the basis that Fiume shall re
main an autonomous port for two
years, when it will be assigned to
Italy.
Rome, May 5. Premier Orlando
and Foreign Minister Sonnino of
Italy started for Paris today.
Status in Question. -Paris,
May 5. The status of Italy
as one of the five great powers has
been brought into question by her
withdrawal from the peace confer
ence, and it is this status which is
proving a powerful lever in induc
ing Italy to accept the invitation tu
resume her place at the peace table.
Problems incident to the disposi
tion of the German colonies are left
by the treaty to the great powers
so that if Italy does not resume her
place the treaty would exclude her
frcm participating in the disposi
tion of the colonies.
The text of the treaty has been
delivered to the printers, with the
exception of some details which can
be revised when the complete print
ed draft is ' ready. Owing to the
doubts as to Italy's status, the prot
ocol of the treaty will be prepared
in two forms, one including Italy as
a signatory and the other omitting
her. Both these forms and the en
tire text of the treaty will be print
ed tomorrow.
The executive committee which
will launch the league of nations
will hold its first meeting tomorrow.
President Wilson or Col E. M. House
will represent the United States:
Lord Robert Cecil will appear for
England: Stephen Pinchon for
France; Premier Venizelos , for
Greece, the -Spanir ambassador for
Spain, and Dr. Epitacio Pessoa for
Brazil.
Italy Not Represented.
Italy will not be represented. The
oreanization of the league will be.
jjerfected. many committees appoint
ed and plans probably will be draft
ed for the initial meeting of the
league at Washington next October.
The determination of. the confer
ence to begin the negotiations of a
peace treaty with Austria immed
iately following the delivery of the
treaty to the Germans has been
made known to Italy. It is expected
the Austrians will arrive toward the
middle of May.
"Whether Hungary will be asked
to join the treaty will depend upon
the outcome of the present disorders
there.
It is said that the Austrian treaty
will be featured by the outlining of
the boundaries of the states newly
formed from the old empire. The
Bulgarian and Turkish treaties will
follow, but the time for summoning
the delegates from these nations has
not as yet been fixed.

MEXICO CONSIDERS
REPUDIATION OF DEBTS
Washington, May 5. Financial
legislation which President Carranza
lias asked the Mexican congress to
consider at the extra session now
being held is being watched closely
by officials here, it va3 learned to
day. This is understood to be due
to the American interests involved
and to the recent statement by- Luis
Cabrera, Mexican secretary of
finance, that Mexico would not pay
its debts at present, even if it had
the money, preferring to await the
results of the Paris peace conference
to sr? "what the world in general
will do with its obligations, how
many nations will repudiate their
"debts, and how many will trim their
obligations to figures to compatible
with their income."
