Which Will Enable General
Pershing to Equip His
Troops.
Washington, Feb. 21. An econo
mic agreement with Spain under
which General Pershing will get
mules, army blankets and other ma
terials in that country in return for
cotton, oil and other commodities
from the United States, was signed
today in Madrid. The State depart
ment was so advised tonight by Am
bassador Willard.
The terms of the agreement could
not be learned tonight and it was not
known whether they had any bearing
on the rate of exchange between the
two countries, which the United
States has desired to adjust because
of the recent depreciation of the Am
erican dollar in Spain where it is now
worth only about 75 cents.
Success of the negotiations was
welcome news to officials here at the
ability to buy supplies in Spain will
save ship tonnage and enable General
Pershing to build up his reserve
stores much more rapidly than prob
ably otherwise would have been pos
sible. Will Aid Ship Tonnage.
The negotiations followed refusal
of Spain to supply a large number of
mules, 200,000 blankets and other ma
terials ordered by General Pershing
last month. The official reason given
for the failure to fill the order was
said to have been that the Spanish
railroad system had broken down
and it was impossible to handle goods'
destined for France.
Negotiations at Madrid apparently
were going on when it became known
that Spanisch steamers were being
held up in American ports for lack
of fuel.
Through their control of bunker
coal the United States and the allies
were in a position to stop not only
the shipment of goods to Spain from
the allied countries, but from neutrals
as well. Spain is dependent upon this
country for large supplies of food
stucs as well as other materials.
Majors Belmont and Brown, United
States army, are understood to have
conducted the major part of the ne
gotiations for the United States,
while Spain's representatives were
Senor Urquijo, a banker, Senor Gar
nica, under secretary of finances and
Senor Pina, former Spanish ambas
sador to Washington.
May Compromise to
End the Ship Row
Washington, Feb. 21-Coneeasions
to William L. Hutcheson, president
of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners, in adjusting the claims of
ship yard carpenters appeared prob- .
able tonight after further conferences
between governmnt officials and of
ficials of th carpenters' union.
The original signers of an agree
ment to leave all differences in ship?
yards to the shipbuilding labor ad
justment board for settlement, will
be called together to see if the agree
ment can be amended to meet the
carpenters' demands. The signer in
cluded navy and shipping board of
ficials and representatives of 17 unions
whose members are engaged in ship
yard work. The carpenters' or
ganization was the only one whose
members are employed In shipyards
that did not become a party to" the
memorandum.
Hutcheson has declined to leave to
the board decisions respecting condi
tions of labor, but has agreed to let
it adjust questions concerning hours
and wages. Today he presented to
the conference a proposal for signing
the memorandum if it is amended to
permit a representative of the, car
penters to have a say in the board's
findings. -
Hutcheson left for New York to
night, announcing that he would not
attend further meetings until the gov
ernment had agreed to accept his pro
posal. Takes Casualty Lists to
Awaken Women to the War
Chicago, Feb. 21. Mr. Thomas
Peston, jr., formerly Mrs. Grover
Cleveland, came to Chicago today to
take charge of the women's activities
in connection with the Congress of
National Service.
The women of America are not
working together sufficiently to win
the war and until they do, it will
never be won, she asserted.
"America is not used to .being seri- '
ous about anything and it will take
the casualty lists to make women
realize the enormity of the problem.''

Gold Hill, Utah, Feb. 21. Incensed
