ILWfliFi PEACEOF WORLD PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT DECIDES TO USE ALL HIS POWER AT COMING CONVENTION, Moroccan Conference and the Result It May Bring Has Spread to Thl Country. Washington, Jan. 0. Tho agitation In Europe ove tho - coming Mo roccan conference and the result It may bring has spread to this coun try, and officers here are now deeply Interested In the matter, because of the recontly developed view that tho American delegation to the conference Is the most potent factor at the gath ering. It has been believed here that the various European governments who ore so deeply Interested In the conference, notably France and Germany, had agreed to a programo which wonld be adhered to rigidly. Tho possibility of a split between these two govern ments on some of the questions In volved may throw tho United States into 'a position where Its delegates, with their votes, will have the power to settle the issue. In that event It Is considered the position of the United Stats may become ombarrasslng. It Is learned on authority that tho United States Government will do everything in Its power to bring about a peaceful settlement of tho confer. ence. From this it appears that Presi dent Roosevelt has again determined to use all his power in koeplng the world at pace. Tho difficulties of tho situation are great, and the American mission will undoubtedly have much work to do. Cured His Mother of Khetiniatisiu.

Hall of Cincinnati and with Mrs. Maud Baillngton Booth In their campaign for tho biding ofl of the hopelessly insane, hopelessly diseased nnd vtetlms of accidents. His views nro expressed in a letter to Miss Hall aud niado public hero yes terday. Dr. Norton was formerly professor of literature at Harvard. He was a friend of Lougfellow and Lowell, and with them made the famous transla tion of tho "Divine Comody." Ho heads his letter "An appeal to reason as well ns compassion," addresses Miss Hall and writes: ''The prlnciplo that it Is a duty to prolong every human life as long as possible at whatovcr cost, has hitherto been generally accepted. "Its main support has been the doc trine of Uie sacrctlncss of human life. "The doctrlno and tho practice have both been pressed too far. Thoro Is no ground to hold every human ltfo as Inviolably sacred, aud to bo preserved, no matter with what results to the in dividual or to others. On tho con- trvry, there aro coscb to which every reasonable consideration urges that the end Bhould be put.

"Nor should a reasonable man hesi tate to hasten death in the case of a mortal disease, Buch, for example, as cancer, when it has reached tho stage of incessant sever pain and when the patient desires to die. "The prolongation of life In such case, by whatever meuiis. Is more criminal cruelty. "Or take another instance, that of an old person whoso mind has become a chaos of wild Imaginings, productive of constant dlstross not only to tho sufferer but to all who live with and attend him.
