FRANCE MOST ASTUTE

allied powers to Mr. Bowrn's latest pro
posal arrived here yesterday, but. have not
yet been presented to the minister. Thla
Mr. Bowen considers a hor-cful aim.
n courteous terms the allies refuse their
consent 'to the proposition that the t'nlted
States and other claimant nations rerelvo
the same treifment as the blockading
powers.
Knowing the consequences that were to
follow this answer the representatives . of
the allies look upon themselves the re
sponsibility of withholding the notes and
of again cabling, urging; a retraction of
the preferential demands.
The exchanges sre still In progress be
tween tho Italian, British and German
embassies, but there Is no evidence thtt
the allies Intend yielding. It they hold out,
their representatives must present the
Joint refusal and Washington negotiations
will come to a standstill.
Baron Speck von Sternberg today spent
two hours In conference with Count Quadt,
who, aa charge d'affaires, has thus far con
ducted the Venezuelan negotiations for
Oermany.
The German minister was placed In
possession of the correspondence which hss
passed between Mr. Bowen and the allied
powers and was advised by the count of
the serious hitch which bad arisen ak a
result of the contention of the triple alli
ance for preferential treatment.
Meanwhile Mr. Bowen la biding hlr time.
He is keeping Caracas informed as to the
situation here and Is counselling patience,
hoping that the powers will yet yield.
As a matter of fact, he has so. far re
ceived no Intimation from the powers that
they are really dnslrous. of settling tha
Venezuelan dispute at Washington, as (hay
have thus far merely received his sugges
tions with counter propositions,
Mr. DeMargerie today informed Secretary
Hay be had received specific Instructions
to Insist that France shall not be discrim
inated against In the settlement tit the
Venezuelan claims.
When shown the dispatch regarding' the
explanation given In Berlin of the apparent
hitch In the Venezuelan negotiations, Mr.
Bo'wen said:
All settled forelan claims are covered by
the IS per cent ararna-ement. The 30 per
cent proposition now offered Be f era exclu
sively to unsettled claims, which not only
the blockading power, but the peaceful
powers, are pressing for settlement
It Is absolutely false that the 13 per cent
arrangement Is Included In the SO per cent
proposition. It Is entirety distinct.
There has been so much -confusion, dis
cussion and misunderstanding in regard to
this question of percentage that I am Will

The home secretary replied to the-em

THEORIES ABOUT CATARRH.
Peculiar Idea Reaardlnu; a Common
Dlaeaae.
Mark Twain' cure ior a cold In the head
was simple, but be clalma very effective In
his own case; his plan was to eat nothing
whatever-for twenty four houra or pre
sumably until the trouble had disappeared.
Although not able to speak from per
aonal experience as to the effectiveness of
this treatment, it certainly haa the merit
of extreme ,ecomony, but It occur to us
that the application of It to a. case of nasal
catarrh might be attended with difficulties.
Catarrh, as everyone knows. Is a chronic
cold la the bead and Mr. Twaln'a treat
ment. If It ahould become a fad, would
mrfke of us nation of fasters: an army,
emulating tbe example of the Immortal
Tanner , who achieved world wide fame by
fasting forty daya.
Catarrh is certainly becoming a national
disease and there I little doubt but that
errors In diet, particularly over eating Is a
very common cause.
Most people however are more interested
In the cure of the trouble than In tbe cause.
and modern medical science haa produced
more effective and less heroic remedies
than Mr. Twain's.
Hydrastln is a new remedy, very effective
In some forms of Catarrh. Red Gum Is an
other which on account of its antlseptlo
properties la very valuable, while many
severe casea of Chronlo Catarrh have beu
entirely cured by tho sangulnarla or ex
tract ot Blood roet alone.
Within a year an enterprising chemist
has combined all of these remedies In tab-.i
let form, palatable and convenient and the
suoerlorlty ot this lableta over other ca
tarrh remedies is so apparent that alt
druggists now carry thm in atock to sup
ply the popular demand.
They are called Stuart' Catarrh Tablets
and It la doubtful If any medicine has
achieved a national popularity In ao short
a time as this.
' Stuart's Catarrh Tablets ar ued by
thouaand of traveling men because tbey
csn be carried la tbe packet and used any
time and In any quantity . being free from
Cocaine, opiate or any poisonous drug.
Tbey clear the head and throat from the
disgusting secretions of catarrh, very often
In a few hours time.
Far nasal Catarrh they are far auperlor
to any wash, lotion or. ointment the use of
which Is- often aa ioconvenient and annoy
ing aa tbe disease Itself.
For coughs, colds, bronchial catarrh and
catarrh of stomach, these tableta give im
mediate relief and a permanent cur wher
lotion, douche and Inhaler make no im
pression, whatever.
This preparaUun Is a boom. -to catarrh
sufferers and any druggist . will . tell you

(iermuii .Minister la Prophet.
Baron Speck von Sternberg, the new
German minister, who arrived In Wash
ington last night,. was presented to Presi
dent Rootevelt today by Secretary Hay.
The call was format,, the baron desiring
to present' his credentials as special minis
ter from Oermany to this country before
the taking charge of the embassy's affairs
In tbe absence of Ambassador von Holle
ben. The exchanges were verbal, the president
for this occasion waiving the usual prepar
atory ceremonlea and Baron Sternburp con
fined himself to an exposition of the em
peror's friendly feeling for tho United
States' and his own gratification at being
able to return to America In this capacity.
The president responded In a felicitous
vein, incidentally expressing the hope that
tbt baron's coming would result In the set
tlement of all pending questions, this being
an indirect reference to the Issues.
Beyond this, the question waa not dis
cussed. The baron called upon Minister
Bowen this afternoon.
In a subsequent Interview Baron Stern
berg expressed the .gratification he felt at
returning to ihu 'United States.
He said: 'i '
As I return to. America as a minister
plenipotentiary 1 am reminded of the
changes that have taken plHce since I was
here more than ten years ngo as a mili
tary attache. Then your president waa a
civil service comllssloner. I do not pose as
a prophet, tut when I first met Mr. Roose
velt I waa deeply impressed with hla un
tiring energy and essential sincerity of
purpose. It Whs this combination that
convinced me that some dy 1 would sej
him at the head of thla groat tiation.
When I euld godbye to him on my de
parture from Washington the first time
1 added: "When I BRain congratulate you,
Mr. Roosevelt, you will be one step nearer
the White House."
On hearing of his appointment as assist
ant swretary of the nnvy, I wrote him:
"Permit me to congratulate you on this
second step nearer the presidency." and
when he was elected governor of New York
1 telegraphed him: "The next time I offer
you my congratulations it will be Prenl
detit Roosevelt."
I believed he would be president because
I knew the!1 stuff he was n.ade of. To mo,
and the same opinion prevails In Europe,
your president Is the personification of
what la good and great and healthy In
America.

REVIVAL OF THE SPIRIT OF PAST AGES
Aim at Financial Abaolotlam In
tead of Governmental a For
merly, One a Detrimental to
t'roarra a the Other.
(Copyright. 1!3, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON. Jan. 31. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Benjamin
Kidd, the great sociological writer, baa
returned from the United States profoundly
Impressed with the gravity and urgency
of the trust problem. He baa given to the
World correspondent his views on the
question and its future, as follows:
"The trusts of today are the revival In
Industrial life of exactly the same spirit
that created absolutism In states. For
merly men aimed at administrative ab
solutism; now the trust leader' object Is
the attainment of financial absolutism,
"It Is as pernicious In Its latter day a
in its former aspect, and It Is as vital to
the Interests ot humanity and progress that
financial absolutism should be destroyed as
It was that absolutism among ruler should
be abolished.
"The whole history or British civilization
has been the hlstor of a steady, tenacious
fight against absolutism in the state, a
fight which baa been entirely successful.
Financial absolutism must be fought, and,
in my opinion, the Influence that will fight
and overcome It will be that same British
civilization which baa crushed absolutism
In other forms."
Benjamin Kldd's "Principles of Western
Civilization" baa attracted more attention
than any work of recent years dealing
with the philosophy of history. His
"Social Evolution" is deemed of such world
wide Interest that It has been translated
Into German, French, Russian, Italian and
Swedish, and rests on the shelves ot schools
In all countries alongside ' of Herbert
Spencer's works. His "Control of tbe
Tropics" also ranks' among th Important
works of the time. .
