FIRST STONE Li
OF PEACE
Delegates to The Hague Pay
Tribute to Carnegie's -Munificence.
PROMOTE CULT CF PEACE
Dutch" Statesman Lauds Founder of
Palace Xelidoff Claims Credit
for Czar of
Starting
Peace Movement,
THE HAGUE. July 30. The founda
tion stone of the Andrew Carnegie
Palace of Peace was lajd this after
noon at Zorgrvllet In the midst of the
wooded park stretching from The
Hague to Schvenlngen by M. Nelldoff,
president of the second peace confer
ence. Practically all the delegates attending
the present peace conference, a num
ber of high court officials, the mem
bers of the States General and the del
egations, from numerous civic and mu
nicipal bodies were grouped around
the stone, which, when the structure
Is completed, will form the corner of
the grand hall of justice.
Chiseled on the stone in bold Roman
characters is the following Latin in
scription: "Pad, Justltlae. flrmandae, hanc,
aedom, Andrae Carnegie, munlflcentia,
dedlcavit."
Place Right Above Might.
The ceremonies were opened with
music and singing by a number of
choral societies, after which M. A. P.
C. Van Karnebeak, president of the
Carnegie foundation commlttet, de
livered an address in which he paid a
tribute to the "generous man whose
name is engraved upon the first stone
of the edifice due to his munificence."
The thoughts and the thanks of
every one went out, the speaker said
to Andrew Carnegie. Then rapidly
sketching the history of the Carnegie
donation and describing the plans of
the peace palace, which It is proposed
to ask the powers that have signed the
Hague convention to furnish, M. Van
Karnebeak concluded with these
words:
"This is to be a palace of interna
tional justice founded as the outcome
of the need of every civilized country
to substitute the rule of right for the
rule of might. In this palace no one
will be stronger, on one weaker, than
the other, and no other blade except
the sword of justice will be placed in
the scale. The tower of the palace
will point to the stars, indicating the
ideal of our efforts." '
Promote Worship of Peace.
M. Nelldoff expressed the gratitude
of the peace delegates to the munifi
cent donor of the palace and to the
Netherland government for the gift of
the land for the edifice. The palace,
he said, would be a monument to the
first efforts made by the governments
of the world to preserve to the Nations
the benefits of peaceful development
by seeking to prevent wars. The
speaker said he wished to emphasize
the almost sacred character of the pro
posed building. It represented a new
principle in the relations of people,
namely, peace by justice and right.
M. Nelidoff then referred to the anti
quity of the worship of war, and said
there had never been a cult of peace
of the world. Of all the precepts
preached by the Saviour 1800 years
ago, the idea of peace had been the
most neglected.
"To make this idea triumph and
the honor there for accrues to the Em
peror of Russia the governments of
the world must agree to study in com
mon a means of making universal
peace a study by seeking every pos
sibility of assuring its maintenance,"
said M. Nelldoff.
Real Estate Boomer Busy.
Some disappointment is felt that
Queen Wllhelmina, who is at the
Hague, was not present at the cere
monies, and it is reported that the real
reason for her absence Is to ba found
in a dispute of a site for the palace.
Real estate speculators are openly ac
cused of having Influenced the selec
tion of the site at Zorxliet.
WILSON'S SEATTLE SPEECH
Secretary Advocates Third Term for
Roosevelt.
SEATTLE, Wash., July 30. Secre
tary Wilson was entertained at lunch
today by the Rainier Club. Secretary
Wilson toured Seattle in an automobile.
Inspected the harbor and then went to
Tacoma.
The Secretary said that there seemed
to be a well-defined sentiment In the
West in favor of Roosevelt for a third
term, but gave no personal opinion.
He had heard no rumor of his own
resignation and said, "It is too far
ahead to forecast what; I will do at
the end of' my term."
Referring to his Forest Reserve pol
icy, he said:
"Unless the men intend to establish
their homes on the land, I am in favor
of keeping it in the Forest Reserye."

period of time from 1872 to 1902, the mem
bers of these associations. It is asserted,
by various unfair business methods,
forced substantially all competitors out
of the powder business until, at the latter
date, they controlled 95 per cent thereof.
Holding Company Gobbles All.
The petition recites many of the
operations of the so-called powder
trust leading up to the organization, in
May. 1903. under the laws of the State
of New Jersey, of the E. I. Dupont de
Nemours Powder Company, with a cap
ital stock of $50,000,000, as a holding com
pany, for the purpose of acquiring" the
capital stock of every corporation In
the United States engaged in manu
facturing and dealing in high ex
plosives. This New Jersey holding company, it
i alleged, did acquire control of the
companies operating in high explosives
in the United States until all of the
business of shipping and selling such
commodities of substantially 70 com
panies, which had from time to time
since 1872 been separate competing
concerns, and now being carried on' by
three gigantic operating companies,
namely, the Eastern Dynamite Com
pany, the E. I. Dupont de Nemours
Powder Company of Delaware and the
Laflln A Rand Powder Company had
been acquired.
The defendants, it is alleged, already
have a complete monopoly of the pro
duction and distribution of smokeless
ordnance powder, in addition to the
monopoly of 95 per cent of the produc
tion of explosives other than smokeless
powder. 1
Annul Unlawful Stock.
The Government asks in its prayer
for relief that these operating compa
nies be enjoined and restrained from
operating and engaging in interstate
commerce in the United States, or that
receivers be appointed to take over
their business. '
The Government also asks that cer
tain capital stock in other companies
by the various holding companies shall
be adjudged unlawful and void, and
that the defendants shall be restrained
from carrying on alleged unfair com
petition against 26 Independent firms,
which at the time of the filing of the
petition were engaged In the manufac
ture, shipment and sale of blasting
powder and -dynamite in the United
States, In lawful competition with the
defendants.
Subpena Against Dupont.
WILMINGTON, Del., July 30. Subpenas
in connection with the Government's suit
against the powder trust were Issued soon
after the filing of the petition. They are
returnable the first Monday in October.
Henry A. Dupont, who is United States
Senator, exercises a dominant influence
over the business of the powder company,
according to the bill.
BOTH SIDES WOULD YIELD
STRIKERS AND OPERATORS
WILLING TO CONCEDE.
Officials, However, Will Not Hold
Open Opportunity to Return to
Work More Than 24 Htinrs.
DULUTH, July SO. While the officials
of the steel corporation will continue the
conciliatory attitude which they thus far
have maintained toward the striking ore
dock employes, it is not believed that they
will hold open to them an opportunity to
return to work more than 24 hours.
There is unquestioned basis for the
statement that a reply has been drafted
in answer to the last communications of
the strikers announcing their willingness
to go to work upon the appointment of &
committee of arbitration to settle the dif
ferences. The reply, it Is understood, will
assert the willingness of the company to
meet any of their employes individually or
as a committee to discuss with them any
points in dispute which the men feel
should be adjusted after they have re
turned to work, but at the same time
pointing out wherein they consider that
arbitration does not concern the main
issue between the men and the company.
LEADER OF STRIKE ARRESTED
Petrlella Tries to Cross Bridge in
Defiance of Guard.
DULUTH, Minn., July 30. A dispatch
from Hlbblng to ' the Herald says that
Strike Leader Petrlella was arrested to
day on a charge of carrying concealed
weapons.
Petrlella and Mahoney, the acting pres
ident of the Western Federation of Min
ers, were driving toward Chisholm. They
were crossing the bridge which leads to
the Sellers mine when the guard ordered
them to stop. Instead, Petrlella whipped
the horse and tried to pass. The guard
fired several shots into the air, and Pe
trlella was Instantly surrounded by sev
eral deputies. He was then arrested and
when searched was found to have a re
volver and SHOO.
Mahony offered to allow himself to
be searched, but he carried no weapons.
The men made no attempt to gather
about the jail where Petrlella was con
fined. Mahoney returned to Hlbblng after
his companion had been arrested.
Aside from Petriella's arrest and the
affair at Nashwauk last evening when
Sheriff Hollihan arrested several agita
tors, everything was quiet upon the range
today. About the same mines were work
ing today as were operated yesterday
with slightly larger crews.
It was announced that an answer to
the letter of the ore handlers asking for
arbitration would be given to the men
this afternoon.

Asphalt for Third Street.
Property owners on Tljlrd street, be
tween Salmon and Grant, are circulating
a petition asking that that thoroughfare
be paved with asphalt, the distance cov
ered in the petition being 13 blocks. An
effort was made last year to have this

but a dispute arose as to the character
of the paving. This terminated in the
courts and the Interested property own
ers have decided to ask for an asphalt
cavinc as a substitute.

and south banks of the canal, were threat
ened with demolition. No one wag hurt.
The canal level at this point Is five
miles in length and Division Superintend
ent Thomas Wheeler immediately ordered
the water drawn off. He said that the
break was caused by the arches of the
aqueduct over Onondaga Creek giving
way. When the level Is emptied, the
danger of flood In the creek section north
to Onondaga Lake will pass and the
backed up waters of the. creek will flow
uninterruptedly by the boats.
All canal traffio is tied up and it will
be several days at least before the dam

ALSO PRESCRIBED IN
HOSPITAL SAINT LOUIS
Gentlemen : You may be pleased to
learn that a patient suffering from an
irritation of the skin, caused by motor
ing, on consulting a noted physician in
Paris, for which a fee of one hundred
francs (twenty dollars) was charged,
was advised to use Cuticura, which ad
vice, although received with astonish
ment, was followed and resulted in a
perfect cure. (Signed) Lewis Gower,

December 16, 1906."
French physicians, particularly those
-making a specialty of the treatment of
kin diseases, have for many years re
garded Cuticura as a specific and have
prescribed it freely. It enjoys the rare
distinction of being prescribed in the
Hospital Saint Louis, Paris, one of the
largest and most famous hospitals in
the world devoted exclusively to the
treatment of diseases of the akin.

"I wish to add my voice to the praise
of Cuticura Remedies. I am the lather
of ten children, whose mother is dead.
In our homes in England and America,
she kept in her little medicine chest,
always on hand, and often used to use the
Cuticura Remedies, and they brought
the best of results in children's skin and

The statement declares that the men
