CONSENT TO OTHER TREATIES If Ratified Neither Without Consent of the Other May Enter Into Similar Arrangement With Third Party. New York, May I.—A Washington dispatch gives what purports to be a resume of the treaty of arbitration be tween the United States and Great Britain, so far as it lias been drafted. It says as the suggestions now stand they are preceded by a preamble. The new treaty will be a very brief agree ment, with as few articles as possible. The text of the articles of the treaty are then given, the first of which is: Differences which may arise of a nature which it may not have been possible to settle by diplomacy shall hereafter be referred to the couit of arbitration at The Hague, established by the convention of July 29, 1899; provided, however, that they do not affect the vital interests, the independ ence or the honor of the two contract ing states and do not concern the in terests of third parties. Article II provides means for the settlement of differences affecting vital interests. These are to be set tled by the appointment of high com missioners, and Article III provides for the interests of third parties and an ally of either contracting party. Article IV slays that “during the operation of this treaty the United States, on the one side, and Great Britain, on the other, consent not to become parties to any convention, treaty, undemanding or alliance with any power or powers except and by the consent of the other.’’ Article V provides for existing trea ties, and Article VI provides for the payment of expenses incident upon ar bitration at The Hague Tribunal. Ar ticles VII and VIII provide for pre sentation of arbitration cases, and IX provides for the use of existing arbi tration treaties between the United States and Great Britain. Article X says both high contract ing parties are at liberty to agree to arbitration treaties under these terms with any other government, in which case both high contracting parties shall be bound to the new treaty. The concluding article, XI, says the pres ent treaty shall go into effect immedi ately upon signing in duplicate and shall remain in operation for an inde terminate period, although it may be terminated at the end of every fifth year from date of signing upon six months' notice from the government desiring to withdraw. MUST NOT RAISE THE RATES Missouri Superintendent of Insurance Notifies Companies That Present Rates Must Stand. Jefferson City, May 4.—Frank Blake superintendent of insurance, gave out a statement in which he says there is an attempt on the part of some of the fire insurance companies to raise their rates before the new rating law, passed by the last legislature, goes into effect. Blake has advised the companies that the rates must not be raised over what they were on March 18, when the new law giving the sup erintendent supervision over the mak ing of fire insurance rates, was sign ed. This he told them, would be con strued as a hostile act, and would justify him in suspending or revoking their licenses. The insurance companies have filed with the. state insurance department their basis schedules upon which rates are to be based, but they have so far refused to file other information in cluding test rates which he asked for. College Men Hunting Work. Topeka, May 4.—Kansas is going to have more than its usual number of college men for the wheat harvest. Charles Harris, director of the state free employment bureau, has had more requests for work in the fields this year from colleges and from col lege men than in any former year. Button Strike Ends. Muscatine, Ia„ May 4.—Muscatine’s long button strike lias ended. Work was resumed in the factories and it is probable Gov. Carroll will order the militia companies now on duty to be withdrawn. The terms of settlement are considered a victory for the union forces. Putting a Crimp in the Lords. London, May 4.—The parliament bill for the curtailment of the powers of the Lords, passed the committee stage in the commons practically with out amendment. The motion was car ried 26o to 147. The house of com mons then adjourned. Peace for Canada, Too. Washington, May 4.—To include Canada in the arbitration scheme be tween Great Britain and the United States is the plan of British Ambassa dor Bryce. He will go to Ottawa to discuss the project with the Canadian government. ; SO THE PEOPLE MAY DIAGNOSE KANSAS MEDICAL SOCIETY MAY TRY NEW PLAN. Literatuns May be Mailed to Resident* of the State Giving Symptoms of Disease. Kansas* City, Kan , May 4- The Kan sas Mtdk-al society, which is in ses sion at the Masonic Temple will take steps soon to inform tho people of the state regarding the symptoms of dan gerous diseases. The memftkys agreed that many people have such ..symptoms and do net know it. Instead of consult ing a physician immediately, they wait l until it is too late and yiere is no hope for recovery. A suggestion was offered by some of the members that literature ho mailed to the residents of Kansas ex plaining the symptoms of some of the most dangerous diseases so the peo ple will be able to diagnose their own , cases. The question of the physicians’ diag nosis work was also discussed. "Iioctors should be very enreful as to the diagnosis of their cases," Hr. E. E. Hubbard of Shawnee said. "In some eases a physician will be too hasty in his diagnosis and the death of the patient is sometimes a result which migh have been prevented. Dr. C. J. McGee and Dr. 1’. D. Mat/, both of Leavenworth, read essays on ‘‘Vaccines and Vaccine Theropy With Report of Oases’’ before the society. They told how the vaccine was made and 'how to administer it. Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the state board of health, also talked. Tho entire program was not completed and those who were slated to speak had a chance to make a short talk this morning before the regular program started. The meeting will adjourn Friday.

Mexico, May 4. -Rebels are In a con certed movement to cut off the City of Mexico from the outside world In every direction. Railroad service to Manzanillo, port of the state or Colima, Is paralyzed and the telegraph wires cut. Cuernavaca is shut off by railroad to the south and the same operation Isolated Puebla. Washington, May 4.—Official dis patches to the state department from Ambassador Wilson and the consular officers In Mexico confirm the reports published Indicating a very serious in ternntlonal disturbances in Mexico. The condition of the neighboring republic was discussed by the presi dent with several of tlm cabinet of ficers before he left hero for Ralti niore. Ambassador Wilson was In structed to keep the department fully advised. He reported that a great many for eigners of all nationalities are leaving Mexico City in apprehension of iver sonal danger. He also reiKirts that Cuernavaca lias been cut oft from communication with Mexico City. This is an important place of 18,000 people, for the German inhabitants of which Germany has made strong rep resentations to the Mexican foreign ofliee. The United Stales government joints Germany in seeking guarantees of protection. The state department is also inform ed that Torreon district with tho ox ception of the city of Torreon is en tirely in the hands of the revolution 1sts and that conditions are very alarming. To add to the disturbing reports, the department is informed tiiat communi cation with Mazatlan and Acapulco ii Interrupted. All these reports are from such widely separated points, some of them near the capital city of Mexico, that [he conditions present questions of gravest concern to the administration. Qen. Wood at White House. Gen. Wood called at the White house, but the result was not made public. All the dispatches to the Elate department had previously been sent to Gen. Wood. In view’ of the general belief that the armistice is at fin end both the state department and the war department fear an im mediate resumption of military ac tivity along the border towns. Mexico City has suddenly realized the seriousness of its position. The lines of the rebels are drawing nearer every day and no movement of attack by the insurrectos would be unex pected. That the United States appreciated I he very condition which has come to pass and the Mexican government it self has a foreboding of the same is shown by the large number of pas senger cars on the Mexican railroad stored in the yards in Vera Cruz ready for use at a minute’s notice. In the event of extreme exigency American troops now stationed in Texas could be rushed to Mexico City over hastily repaired railroads. Danger at the Capital. Mexico City represents a vast powder mine and the spark to explode it is an overt attack upon American citizens, it is believed President Diaz would consent to American inter vention. Sedition in the ranks of the federal army has weakened it to such an ex tent that volunteers are being sought daily ami companies of citizen soldiers are being drilled for an emergency. In the city of Mexico alone there tire more than K,000 criminals in the pent tentiary and the bandit leaders have threatened to release this horde in the event of a successful attack. The jails in Mexico City are filled with political prisoners and others whose liberation would mean a bloody relgti of rapline and murder. Foreigners especially, it is feared would be slaughtered indiscriminately. MAY PLEDGE AS TO SENATORS Candidates at Illinois Primaries May or May Not Bind Themselves to Follow Party Vote.
