possible for a few strong nations to
dictate the policies and development
of the world. It must not deny to
small and dependant states that final
right of revolution that sometimes is
the only road to justice and freedom.
"4. It must be a program that will
gave the masses greater, influence in
those decisions that plunge nations
into war; that is to say, a program
under which the powers of autocracy
and absolute secret diplomacy cannot,
over night, rush a nation into war be
fore the citizenship of the nation has
a chance to express itself.
All Must Have Voice.
"5, It must be a program under
which all the international machinery
that is created will afford a medium
through which all classes of society
can voice their judgment and register
their demands. We must not delude
ourselves into thinking that the inter
national problem will be solved en
tirely by the establishment of an in
ternational court along traditional
lines, presided over by lawyers to pass
judgment upon . violations of estab
lished international law. The fact is
that the real causes of modern wars
are not so much violations of estab
lished law, as they are conflicts
over new problems and new needs
that have not yet become a part of
international law. So that any ade
quate international program must in
clude the establishment of a system of
stated international conferences in
which the representatives of such
democratic interests as labor and busi
ness can present and discuss, not un
der any established rules of evidence,
but in the spirit of impartial exami
nation , those difficulties and differ
ences that threaten to give rise to
war."
Mr. Gompers declared that insofar
as the program of the League to En
force Peace, represented an effort to
meet the conditions he had outlined,
it demanded the interest and careful
scrutiny of every man who had the in
terests of labor at heart. "It is not
for me, by word of mouth, to commit
the laboring men of America to anv
particular program in international af
fairs." PRESIDENT NAMES CHATAM

PRESIDENT MAY
SOUND KEY NOTE
FOR END OF WAR
(Continued from Page One.)
ma's independence, Mr. Taft stated
it meant that the United States is un
der obligation to make war to defend
Panama.
"This duty can only be discharged
through the action or congress in de
claring war," he asserted. "Does
that deprive congress of its power to
declare war? It seems to me the
question answers itself."
Would Modify Monroe Doctrine.
Under the plan for world peace as
League to Enforce Peace, the United
States might have to relinquish some
of its older interpretations of the
Monroe doctrine in the event of a
dispute with a European power,
George Wilson, professor of interna
tional law at Harvard, declared in his
address. Under peace treaties signed
in recent years, Prof. Wilson said,
such concession will have to be made.
"The United States has, within
recent years," he said, "become a
party to a large number of treaties in
which 'the high contracting parties
agree that all disputes between them,
of every nature whatsoever, to the
settlement of which previous arbitra
tion treaties or agreements do not ap
ply in their terms or are not applied
In fact, shall, when diplomatic
methods of adjustment have failed, be
referred for investigation and report
to an international commission,' and
'they agree not to declare war or be
gin hostilities during such investiga
tion and before the report is sub
mitted.' "Plainly therefore the United States
is bound already under these and
other treaties, of which there are a
large number, to submit disputes in
volving the Monroe doctrine to a
body which would meet the require
ments of the platform of the League
to Enforce Peace.
May Have to Abandon It.
"Further it may be said, if, when in
dispute, the Monroe doctrine as ap
plied by the United States is not a
policy upon whirh the United States
is willing to await hearing, consider
ation and recommendation, then Jhe
United States has not acted in good
faith in signing these recent treaties,
and it may also be said if the Ameri
can policy as embodied in the Monroe
doctrine will not stand the test of in
vestigation and consideration it is
time for the United States to be de
termining why it shimld longer give
to the doctrine its support.
"As the plan of the league for sub
mission of controversies such as might
ariae over the Monroe doctrine has,
on the initiative of the United States,
already been embodied in treaties
with a greater part of the states of
the worid, such a plan cannot be re
garded as impracticable without con
demnation of the judgment of those
who are in control of the affairs of
the world, and this judgment the
League to Enforce Peace, having the
well being of the world in view, does
not criticize and condemn, but sup
ports and commends."
In San Francisco
Desperado Fights
Fifty Policemen
San Francisco, May 26. Barricaded
in a boat house on the edge of San
Francisco bay, lone desperado
fought a half hour gun and revolver
battle today with fifty policemen, who
surrounded his lair after he had killed
Police Sergeant John J. Moriarity.
The defender was found dead on the
floor when the police finally captured
the house boat after shooting the lock
off the door.
The battle was staged from the
land and water with a boat load of
policemen raining lead upon the house
boat and another squad shooting
from sheltered land positions about
the docks.
The entrenched bandit poured a
steady stream of bullets at his uni
formed enemies until fatally wounded.
The police found many shot guns,
rifles, automatic revolvers and stores
of ammunition.
The name, "M. E. Jones," was
found on the tailor's label on the
dead bandit's coat
The bandit had taken refuge in his
house boat, after he had killed Mo
riarity, who was arresting him for
passing counterfeit money on street
cars.

LEADEE, IS DEAD
(Continued From Page One.)
for that reason, we beseech vou not
to impede us nor to disturb us in
our war against the North Amer
icans, who, under false pretenses,
profane our patriotic soil. We take
it for granted that we, ourselves,
have no political creed except the
cause of Mexico.
"The Carranza rmy, the Mexican
public, the entire nation will have to
protest and rise up against the in
sults which all Mexicans suffer in
the name of our fatherland. History
and the world will take account of
the patriotism which promises to call
the invaders to account. To fail in
this will weigh against our con
science and dignity, and reflect upon
the names of our children. On ac
count of this we hope that we do not
fail to meet as one grand family, a
situation that must come about.
"At least, we pray that we may be
left to fight the miserable invaders,
the sole cause of our discord and na
tional disgrace. We respectfully re
quest that you reply in regard to this
matter on your word of honor. In
the name ot our unfortunate Mexico,
we express our deepest brotherhood
and love of the country and the con
stitution." The proclamation was dated Ser
rianavade, April 10, 1916, and signed
Julio Acosta, general, and CandeTario
Cervantes, colonel.

Ham Mayo, surgeon of Rochester,
Minn., is being rushed to St Paul on
a special train at attend James J.
Hill, who ia ill at his home here.
Mr. Hill, who has been ill for ten
days, is said to have taken a bad turn
this morning. L. W. Hilt, president
of the Great Northern railroad, went
in a special train this morning for Dr.
Mayo. They are expected in St Paul

Mr. Hill was stricken May 16 with
a bowel complaint, which later devel
oped complications.
It is understood Dr. Mayo was
called in case an operation should be
come imperative. Attending physi
cians are loath to advise an operation
on account of Mr. Hill's advanced
age. He waa 78 years old a few
months ago.
Dr. Mayo four days ago examined
Mr. Hill and said the complaint was
a common one and that he would
soon recover.
Mr. Hill's present condition is at

which is said to have reached the
bowels.
Dr. James S. Gilfillan, attending

HERBERT UPDIKE
SUED IN CHICAGO
Cabaret Singers waiter itusoana
Piles Suit For Alleged Aliena
tion of Affections.
PAPERS SERVED IN COURT
Chicago, May 26. Herbert Updike,
who with hia brother figured in a con
spiracy to kill their parents at Oak
Park last winter, was served with pa
pers in a suit for $25,000 damages for
alleged alienation of the affections of
Nellye de Onsonne, a cabaret singer,
filed by her waiter husband, Louis
Hicks, when he (Updike) came into
Judge Kersten's court to testify at
the hearing of his suit to annul his
marriage.
Accepting service and stepping to
the witness stand, young Updike testi
fied that he married the singer at
Crown Point January 8, last, and that
he left her on January 14. Young Up
dike, said to have been aware that the
singer had a daughter, declared, how
ever, that he did not know that she
had another husband at the time of
his marriage until a few days after he
left her.
A certificate issued to the woman
and Hinks in September, 1914, was
produced by a clerk of the marriage
licence bureau. Following which At
torney Fred Owens stated that he
had looked up the court records and
could find no record of Hinks and
the singer ever having been divorced.
Nelson B. Updike of Omaha, a
cousin of the plaintiff, testified as to
a conversation lie had with the sing
er after her separation with Herbert
Updike. He averred that she prac
tically admitted that she had another
husband and that her marriage was
a bigamous one. Mr. Updike then
testified that he "warned her to be
careful or she would get into trou
ble." Commencement Cards
