WASHINGTON', Feb. 1. The Qliinl.le unhip nmvpr litl iina hppnmn a live Issue again. " For a long time jT was deadlocked In the conference committee; then President Wilson took a hand and now the conference committee is busy again and congress will soon have a chance to pass final approval on the committee's report. Gilford l'inchot Is bitterly opposing, but frankly fears defeat. The pow er grabbers, ho. sayse, are strong and confident. A peculiar misunderstanding has arisen as to President Wilson's at titude toward Hie bill. After con ferences Willi the president, Depre seutalives Kent, Ferris and ltainey gave out interviews announcing that the president was opposed to the Shields bill. Then there were con ferences between the president and Senators llankliead and Shields and both these gentlemen gave out in terviews saying that the president was favorable lo the Shields bill as it 'stands- Senator .Myers lias an nounced also, on the floor of the senate, that the president approves 1 the Myers bill; which Is one of the power grabs. Correspondents Puzzled, The correspondents wore some- r what puzzled and were more so when neKiueiiL u ..sun i-aiieu in lue usii- ington Times man and "bawled him out." lie charged the Times man, Willi misrepresenting the facts and told him he ought to stop "throwing a. monkey wrench Into the machin ery.'' Somebody is indulging in a trifling degreo of conversation. Kent doubts the candor of Uankhead and Shields. The Times correspondent doiilits the candor pf the president, I and nobody appears to be entirely Shields. The power Interests are 1 certainly cheering up. The proba- billty is that the president has soivo solution in the back of his head which he thinks will satisfy every body, but which he is not ready just yet to expose to "pitiless publicity." In the meantime, the burglarious In terests have out their jimmies, dy namite and dark lantern, and if the public domain is not looted it will ue because somebody calls a police man. Pence. Xot Full. Sir .Gilbert Parker who has ju.it arrived from London confirms the prediction that peace is scheduled to come next fall. He says that the collapse of the German strength will follow economic exhaustion. He con firms the story that Germany is run ning short of fats and other essen tials to the manufacture of shells, and also food. Whether or not the western lines are broken tho central powers will be through fighting by autumn and the peace confab will be on. Seilv Tlarllce's Scalp. It Is a courageous military man wno uares voice unconveniionai views on the subject of the military cstnb lishment. Majqr William C. Harl leo of the U. S. Marino corps was summoned before Senator Chamber' . Iain's committee and there ventured to suggest that it would be easier )ti secure enlistments if tho enlist ments oath were abolished and the army were made a little more demo cratic. Within two hours after he had testified a full grown conspiracy was launched to send Harllee to Por to Klco and within two days after liis testimony he was stacked by Gen. Mclver who sought to tarnish his military record by charges based on certain alleged remarks In the course of conversalion, as to the er feet that the marine corps might know as much about rifle practice as the regular army officers. Sec retary Daniels will see that Harllee is not railroaded, even by the army and navy clique. Is vour favorite movie star rled?

One of the most Important InvcsttKations of state in stitutions was that recently conduct ed by the commission appointed by the governor to look into the condi tions and law as relating to the stale prison. This commission's report was recently published. Tho two principal recommenda tions made by this commission pro vided : 1. For the removal of tho war den of the penitentiary and the pa role oficer from the parole board. And 2. The change of the Intermediate sentence law by removing the mini mum and double minimum provis ions. These changes were approved by the governor and have the approv al of the leading jurists of the state. Hills to put into effect these two changes have been drawn and intro duced Into the legislature by Repre sentative Sheldon of Jackson county at the request of the.

Owners and agents of ves- sels living neutral Ilajs were m doubt as to their future course of ac tion and it is believed that nio.-d of them will keep their ships in port un til instructions are received from their governments, In the offices of liritish and French lines it was said that there would be no interruption in the sailing- from American ports of ships carrying the flags of the entente al lies. To meet just, such an emerg ency as this the British government has assembled, it was said, a large fleet of small fast cruisers to be used as "submarine chasers. These ves sels, said to number 4000, will .be available to keep the sea lanes clear of raiders and submarines and act as convoys. Shipping- men pointed out that tho most obvious effect of the fiermnn declaration would be the reduction in the tonnage which the freight ships of lite Kuropeau neulrnl lines could cany on account of the increased -pace which would have lo bo sacri- j hood, lo carry coal and provisions tor one continuous voyage 1 min American port?, lo neutral ports. Hitherto neu l ral hips have reiit d largely upon liritish ports to renew their supplies. No shipping of any kind was per mitted to leave the port of New York last nighf.

Prefac ing a prepared address on world peace today, Senator McCunVber, re publican of North Dakota, referred to the German submarine blockade and declared that while it was inop portune for the senate to invade the field of diplomacy it was more than ever desirable for it to aid the presi dent in securing world peace. "We awakened this morning," said Senator MeCumber, "to meet a situation so critical as to warrant our laying aside all ordinary 'busi ness and giving our earnest consid eration to the vital matters in which the nation already is involved in which oar future peace may bo at stake.

Tho committee also recommended establishment of an American com mercial museum In Paris to help de velop trado with Franco and the ne gotiation by the government of com mercial treaties containing the "most favored nation clause.''

"In view of certain present phases of tho Pacific ocnan question, it Is expedient," said the report, "to re quest the chamber to submit to its members a referendum on the ques tion of whether It should urge upon our stato department early and ag gressive effort to make and establish neutralization treaties with all other nations of the world." Secretary Hatter, Major Genernl Wood and Howard Coffin of the naval consulting board were among tho speakers on lodny's program. about peace.
