the committee that Rev. Mr. Ferguson
won her affection and that she was un
able to resist his advances, although she
knew them to be improper. She testified

pastor, some of which occurred at her
home where he boarded, and others In
tils study at the church. She also told

powerful sermon on woman's virtue a
few weeks ago, and that It had such an
effect on her conscience that she decided
to make a full confession. Some of her
testimony was substantiated by other
witnesses.

nent Methodist divines In the country.

NEW YORK. July 18. Foreign Minis
ter Hayashi, of Japan, replying to a ca
ble request by the New York World for
an assurance of peace and good will at
this time from' the Mikado, wired as
follows:
"While appreciating friendly senti
ments expressed in your telegram, I find
it impossible, consistent with the usage
of this country, to ask for the dispatch
of. Imperial message as desired.
"I assure you, however, that no erro
neous impression, to which you refer, has
been entertained by Japanese people,
and still less by the Japanese Govern
Tnent. "It is here fully and unlversallv be
lieved that reported cruise of the United
States fleet to the Pacific, if contem
plated at all, implies no indication of dis
quieting nature in the relations between
Japan and the United States.
"Whole nation unshaken confidence in
policy of Justice and peace which has
characterized American Government, and
all sensational reports appearing In a
email section of the press have absolutely

CHOATE ON' ARBITRATION
Speaks to Hague Conference In
Favor of Permanent Court.
THE HAGUE), July 18.-The sitting of
the peace conference today has been one
of the most important held for Interest in
the questions discussed as well as for the
powerful speeches delivered by Joseph H.
Choate of the United State: M. Drago at
the Argentine Republic, and Perei Trlana
of Columbia, while. In addition, Spain
made a declaration which attracted much
attention as revealing the desire of the
Spanish government to assume a kind of
moral tutelage over the Latin-American
countries.
Spain's declaration says that country
adheres to the principles of moderation
which Inspired the American proposition
limiting force for the collection of public,
debts, these being the principles that the
government and the King have followed
and will always follow.
In concluding his address Mr. Choate
made an eloquent appeal to the nations to
enter into a general convention, which
ought to be entirely distinct and inde
pendent, for the settlement of disputed
questions arising in arbitration.
Mr. Choate at a committee meeting thus
stated the reasons that had Induced the
American Government to propose a gen
eral treaty of arbitration. He said:
The dangers and mischief threatening
the world from constant preparation for war
and the accumulation of arms have been
somewhat mitigated by the excellent work
of the first peace conference in recommena
inr arbitration to the nations as a "bs
tute for war and the establishment at Th
Hague of a permanent court.
Since that time great event, have occurred
and two terrible wars, which Inflicted untold
misery upon many, have led to Interna
tional agreements of arbitration, separately
and in pairs. There Is no reason why Na
tions that agree by each other, or 1
two. should not agree altogether to do ex
actly the same thing. . .
Continuing, Mr. Choate referred -to
the excellent work done in this direc
tion bv tho Pan-American conferences
at Mexico City and Rio de Janeiro, and
It was under thfse circumstances, he
said that the United States proposed
general arbitration corresponding In
form and substance to the many indi
vidual treaties which have been en
tered into. Including those negotiated
by the United States in 1904, but re
serving the right of the Senate to par
ticipate in any special agreement which
might become necessary, carrying the
treaty into effect in particular cases.
Mr. Choata's remarks were interrupt
ed often by applause, and he was
warmly congratulated by many delegates.
The American delegation has pre
sented the following proposition:
"If for any reason a captured neutral
vessel cannot be tried, the vessel must
be released."
The Peruvian delegation has present
ed the following amendment to the
American proposition regarding the
collection of contractural debts:
"The principles' established by this
proposition cannot be applied to differ
ences arising from contracts between
the government of one country and the
foreign subjects of another, when the
contracts provide that these differences
must bo submitted to the Judges of
local tribunals."
The Venezuelan delegation presented
a declaratioi. on the same subject, mak
ing the same objection .as Peru with
the addition that in case no contract
exists all diplomatic means of reaching
an understanding must be tried before
recourse is had . to the permanent
court of arbitration. The Venezuelan
declaration ends with these words:
"It is understood that said differ
ences are to be settled through peace
ful means without recourse to coercive
measures Implying the employment of
military or naval forces."
The committee dealing with the bom
bardment of undefended towns and vil
lages today approved the Italian propo
sition forbidding such acts. Upon leav
ing the sitting, Brigadier-General George
B. Davis, one of the American delegates,
remarked cynically:
"Since the time of Julius Ceasar no
example exists of an undefended town
being bombarded, but the conference
took three weeks to realize It."

I'JIItl DRAGOMAN
Desert Romance Leads to Tur
moil in Home of Multi
Millionaire. GIRL'S MOTHER IS FRANTIC
Daughter of Steel Magnate Reported
Engaged to Sahara Guide
Who I Declared to be an
Egyptian Negro.
CHICAGO, July 18. (Special.) Said
Kalil Haick, the Syrian dragoman who
announces - his betrothal to Miss Eloise
Ellwood, grand-daughter of Isaac L. Ell
wood, multi-millionaire steel magnate, and
worth millions in her own right, la re
pudiated by other Syrians, who say he is
an Egyptian negnj, and not even an ordin
ary dragoman. E. EL Corri, of this city,
correspondent of a Syrian paper, sniffs
contemptuously at Haick's claims of a
"fine old family," and says Halck is a
common product of the desert.
Meanwhile, the members of the Ellwood
family here and in New York are voicing
angry protests over the affair, and the
three Elwood mansions at Dekalb, 111.,
are carefully guarded to prevent Kalil
Halck paying a visit to MIssElolse. Her
mother is prostrated over the announce
ment, but the girl has not been seen or
interviewed by any one. Her father. W.
L. Ellwood, Is hastening to New York to
see the alleged Syrian, ahd break off the
match.
Said Kalil Haick was the guide and
dragoman for Mrs. Ellwood, and her
daughter during a trip through Egypt a
year ago, and it is said the love match
prospered at that time. While Miss Ell
wood's relatives are trying to prevent the
culmination of the romance, which re
sulted from her trip in Egypt, Said Kalil
Halck still Insists that the wedding will
take place as arranged. . He is confident
of success.
That some sort of an engagement exists
between the .dragoman and Miss Ellwood
is no longer denied by the Ellwood fam
ily, but its members are reticent concern
ing it. Nothing has occurred in Dekalb
in the last quarter of a century that has
caused such a sensation as the announce
ment that Miss Ellwood was to marry a
dragoman or "contractor to tourists," as
he prefers to style his occupation.

NEW YORK. July 18. Thomas A. Don

ously. He returned to his hotel after

Ropes, driving a powerful machine, ap
proaching in an opposite direction and
running about 40 miles an hour. The
two machines were upon one another be
fore their drivers realized what had hap
pened.. The crash reduced the machines to
scrap iron. Donovan was thrown from
his machine and the spokes of a broken
wheel pierced his breast. A third
automobile, which came flying along the
avenue immediately after the accident,
nearly collided with the wreckage.

QUAKER CITY IS STRICKEN
Sun's Rajs Pour Through Humid
Air on Atlantic Coast, Killing
Many Flood Devastates
Middle States.
PHILADELPHIA, July lg.-The parade
of the Benevolent and Protective Order of
Elks today was marked by the prostra
tion from heat of an army of persons.
The number was 2500 and would have
been greater had it not been for the
eventual downpour of a heavy rain.
Never has there been such a wholesale
prostration of people in the city. For
six hours the police, ambulances, sur
geons and the Red Cross nurses were
kept on the run looking for persons who
collapsed under the scordhlng rays of
the sun and, largely because of their ex
cellent service, but one case resulted fa
tally. James Rowley, aged 44 years, of
this city, died in a hospital after being
stricken in the street. The other stricken
persons are said to be In good condition,
with no prospect of fatal results.
The parade went along Broad street
for a distance of three miles north and
the same distance south of the City Hall.
The paraders countermarched the last
three miles back to the City Hall, so t".at
they traversed upwards of nine miles, yet
few of those, overcome by the heat were
In the line of march.
Swelter In Solid Mass.
Those who succumbed were among the
spectators Jammed along the street In a
solid mass from one end of the line to
the other. The temperature hovered
around 90 degrees and the humidity was
excessive, and as a consequence people
sweltered.
Every attention was given to the spec
tators to see that they were protected, but
It required four hours for the marchers
to pass a given point and the eager peo
ple stood In the hot sun for two hours or
more before the parade started. The to
tal number in the line of march is con
servatively estimated at 20,000 men, with
125 floats.
Hospitals Are Overflowed.
The emergency corps of physicians
maintained by the city, which is aug
mented on special occasions to several
hundred, was all on duty today. At
the intersection of every main street
was a hospital station, and all were
kept busy. The hospitals nearest the
route of the parade were crowded, and
they had abandoned all routine in the
rush to take care of the cases coming
in every minute. As, a rule names of
patients were not taken. One of the
most serious cases was that of an un
identified man taken to Jefferson Hos
pital. It took eight men to put him in
an ice bath, and he broke the nose of
an attendant before he was subdued.
The rear portion of the parade still
had four miles to march when a thun
derstorm broke, causing the paraders
and crowds to scatter. The storm came
quicker than the people anticipated
and the crowds that stood for hours in
the sun ist danger of sunstroke were
soaked to the skin by rain. With the
heavy rain came a cessation of heat
prestations.
About 100 lodges from cities and
towns from tho Atlantic to the Pacific
participated in the parade. There
were 10 divisions under command of
Chief Marshal John P. Sullivan, of New
Orleans, grand squire of the Elks. The
Philadelphia lodge had the right of the
line with 1S00 meni The New York
lodge followed. The following
Western lodges marched:

The grand lodge installed its newly
elected 'officers tonight at which time
it was announced that at a previous

Th;s decision on the part of the grand
lodge settles a fight that has been
waged for two years. The state asso
ciation is restricted in its work and
may not take up legislative matters
to interfere with executive affairs in
the subordinate lodges. Its principal
work will be along charitable and fra
ternal lines.
The grand lodge also authorized the
charter committee to issue charters to
