Appeal to All People to Assist in Furthering Aims of the Mohonk Lake Reformers.
MOHONK LAKE, N. Y.t June -Today's session of the conference on international arbitration was opened with the presentation of the platform of principles, which was adopted. The leading speaker at the morning session was Justice Brewer, of the United States Supreme Court, who reminded his hearers at the outset that treat reforms move slowly and so it must be with the general adoption of arbitration in the settlement of international disputes. The day of universal peace 13 yet far away, he said, but it is surely coming. While there is no regularly constituted power to enforce an acceptance of arbitration, it has the power of public opinion behind, it. which, after all, is supreme. Sneers are sometimes heard about The Hague tribunal. The machinery of that court was not perfect, but the significant fact was that In the recognition of that tribunal the nations recognized the binding force of the principle of arbitration. The institution of The Hague -tribunal, said Judge Brewer, was the beginning of the end of war. lie intimated that he thought it hardly consistent to advocate a larger naval armament, as some speaker had done, and at the same time urge the promotion of international peace. The platform of principles as adopted follows: "With unabated confidence in the cause of internaitonal arbitration this conference renews its allegiance to the principles involved and continues its eftorts to promote them. Each year marks distinct progress toward the attainment of the benetlcient end proposed. This progress has been along the lines of natural growth and developments. With great gratilication we record the fact that eleven nations, five of them ranking among the great powers, have appeared belore the court at The Hague and submitted their controversies to its adjudication. This has been done in the same orderly and judicial manner as that which obtains in our ordinary courts of justice, where disputes between individuals ure. decided. In either class of cases one party or the other is likeiy to be disappointed with the result, but It is accepted as the only rational civilized substitute tor a direct settlement between the rarics hemselvcs. " e conndently rely upon the irresistible power o public opiniou to give effectual sanction to the judgments of the arbitral tribunal, and to extend the scope of its jurisdiction. "We rejoice that the increasing development of commercial communications between countries tends to the advancement of universal peace. ARBITRATION. "This conference is more than ever conscious ! of the profoundly vital and important nature of the work in which it is co-operating. Arbitration is not sought as an end in itself, but as a necessary means to the attainment of the great ends of international Justice. It is not intended to be merely an easier and cheaper way of overreaching a rival or getting the better of an enemy. It recognizes the equally sacred rights of all and seeks nothing less than the meting out of justice to all concerned, as itmay appear to an impartial court under recognized rules of law, after hearing the evidence and the arguments of the respective parties. "To create a demand for a resort to this court for the settlement of controversies between nations in a constantly increasing number and range of cases, is the immediate constant and imperative requirement of the situation. To this end the conference urges all the people to give their inliuence to the adjudication by The Hague tribunal of all disputes betweeh nations, substantially as in disputes between parties in civil cases. It should appeal to all people trom motives of justice and right, humanity and peace, regard for human life and happiness. None are so high and none so low as to be beyond the unhappy effects of war. In all parts of the land, In city and country, in family and store and .workshops, in church and school and state, in. all the relations of lite attempted settlement by war leaves its sad and indelible work. We theretore appeal to all to co-oper ate in diffusing such a righteous sentiment and feeling toward all classes, conditions and races of men that international arbi tration will be resorted to as the best means of securing international justice whenever diplomacy falls. "To such, a sentiment and reeling, when awakened, the lawmaking ana treaty-mak ing powers of the government will readily respond. Several nations have already sig nified their readiness to enter into treaties with the United States providing for the submission of their controversies to The Hague tribunal. We urge upon the gov ernment not only to take early and favor able action in response to these suggestions, but also to take the initiative in ne gotiating similar treaties with all nations, whereby they shall agree to submit to arbi tration by the permanent court of The Hague all differences which they fail to adjust by diplomatic negotiations, and by which thev shall further agree not to re sort in any case to hostile measures of any description till an effort has been made to settle any matter in dispute by submitting the same to the Hague tribunal. "The conference considers it of great im portance that the arbitration treaties signed by the representatives of the States o the western hemisphere at the interna tional American conference held at .Mexico City in l'JUl and 1W2 should be ratified at the earliest practicable day. "We favor the coming together of renre sentatives of all nations disposed to join in the movement, in pursuance of some plan mutually agreed upon for the purpose of conferring together concerning matters of common interest, to the end that the general welfare of all the nations may be promoted. This proposed gatnenng has al ready been aptly designated as an inter national advisory congress. We recognize such a congress as a natural complement and auxiliary to the cause of international arbitration. It will be but another of the stens sure to be taken in the same gen eral direction. ?Ii making for the peace of the world upon the only reliable basis namely, that of justice and mutual good will."

Indiana Building at St. Louis is Transferred to Gov. Durbin
(CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) mo; Fremont Goodwine, Williamsport; Joseph P. Grass, Huntington; S,. B. Fleming, Fort 'Wayne; M. W. Mix, Mishawaka. MR. MARSHALL'S ADDRESS. The dedicatory ceremonies began at 2 p. m., with an invocation by the Rev. D. W. D. Cole, of Iafayette. President Francis of the Exposition Company delivered a brief . welcoming address. Frank C. Ball, of Muiicie, ehairmau of the building committee, in a very short speech stated that the building was completed and ready for dedication. Then Henry W. Marshall, of Lafayette, vice president of the Indiana Commission, formally tendered the building to the people of the State through Gov. Winfield T. Durbin. Mr. Marshall, iu the course of his address, said: "You will lind in the Educational building some suggestion of that impalpable wealth with which the mind and brain of youth is stored; the Agricultural building the proof of a power to feed, and in the Mines and Metallurgy building the evidence of material to shelter and fuel to warm. In the Manufactures and Varied Industries buildings are arranged the dainty and useful products of woman's work, the textile fabrics and the delicate art of china painting; and in the Horticultural building ail the richness of the American garden. "In this, your building, you may find pictures by none but Indiana artists; books by Indiana authors, original manuscripts and drawings, and the many printed 'volumes in prose and ver?e which testify to that ! rise and reign of literature in the State of Indiana, which all the world has recognized. "Much credit for the perfection attained In the arrangement, the effectiveness of display, secured for Indiana in this exhibit of the later Ixvjisiana is due to Mr. President Francis, whose breadth of vision has taken in the mighty significance of a century of American advancement and who has surrounded himself with heads of departments Inspired by the same broad patriotism and strong in the same Western strength. Indiana has aone her share in justifying the wisdom of the purchase, in laying the materia and spiritual foundation on which the exposition stands. "Emigrants from our State have helped to tame the soil of Iowa, have aided in the building of ' Minnesota cities,, have shared in the struggles of Kansas, arid reared their children in the schools of Nebraska. They have delved in the mines of Montana and Idaho, and they call back to us to-day from ten thousand homes in the two Dakotas the message of a brotherly greeting. In redeeming that desert and filling the almost boundless territory of the purchase with the hum of honest industry and the music of Christian homes the women of Indiana have proved their heroine sisterhood with-the noblest women of the past. "Ir peace they have welcomed the sunshine, and in war they have lighted the night with their courageous devotion. And in this meeting of the centuries the product of their hands, the triumphs of their children, are here displayed as time's completest testimony to that wisdom which made Louisiana a part of our Nation. "A mightier than , man has wrought the miracle of this century's development; a greater than human architect has fashioned from the wilderness of 1803 this miracle city of l?0i this magical testimony to an advancement more swift and toward a peaceand happiness more certain than the sword and cannon of the Corsican could secure. Here, in the wilds of a continent which Napoleon did not know, which Jefferson did not apprehend, a wealth and a civilization wholly undreamed has taken root and grown. Industry has won a victory more valuable than Jena, more marvelous than Austerlltz. "Education has dispensed a largess more rich than the crowns and kingdoms of a century ago. And the message which Indiana brings is the word of reverent recognition to that power which has strengthened the arm and fired the brain of man, which has enriched the life of woman, which has lighted the hope of youth, in this dawn of our second century of the Louisiana purchase. "Because wo feel these things we have builded this house In the gardens of the new Nation's greatness. "To the people of Indiana and to Governor Durbin, as representative of all the people of the State, on behalf of the commission I tender this building, conscious of the trust you reposed in those selected for this work of preparation, aware of the short-comings in accomplishment, but proud to transfer from builder to rightful owner the key of a portal which stands wide open with Its welcome to all of Indiana." GOVERNOR'S ACCEPTANCE. Governor Durbin's speech ot acceptance was brief. After thanking the commission for its zeal, he said: "The contribution of Indiana to this exposition Is intended to be something more than an expression of State pride. By legislation Indiana has abolished her State flag and has declared that Hoosiers shall call their own only that banner which Indiana soldiers followed at Chapultepec and Lookout Mountain. Hasten the day when State lines shall no longer be barriers of provincial justice and when the rivalry of American commonwealths shall be confined to emulation in devotion to interests common to all States. Out into this great western country which a hundred years ago had Its political capacity within what are now the borders of the Hoosier State, Indiana has been pouring her best life for half a century. Her children and her children's children have helped the people to build up the Louisiana country. In this home of ours 1 let these scattered children gather as about SALARIES OF RURAL FREE DELIVERY MAIL CARRIERS Schedule of Allowances Fixed in Accordance with Rural Act ofCongress.

HENRY W. MARSHALL,
Who Presented the Indiana Building Governor Dutbin.. to the hearthstone of a common household, let the latch-key hang out for every visitor." GILBERTS TRIBUTE TO INDIANA. Newton W. Gilbert, of Fort Wayne, Lieutenant Governor of the State, next delivered a notable address, in which he paid a glowing tribute to Indiana and its people and spoke of its vast resources, exhibits of which could be seen in all departments of the fair. "The people of some parts of the Union." he said, "were long in learning of the vast material resources of Indiana. The word 'Hoosier, the derivation of which is a matter of doubt, was first applied to us with more or less of contempt and scorn. The State was settled by hardy pioneers, who, in the hardships of those early days, had little time or opportunity to develop the graces of life. But the population was and has continued largely American, the tides of foreign immigration flowing either around or across our borders, and those from foreign lands who- did stop with us well maintained the average of our citizenship. When we contemplate our present common school system, as we believe, the equal or the best of any yet devised, it is difficult to remember that we did not have free schools established in Inuiäna until fifty years ago, and that prior to that time our percentage of illiteracy was ine highest. A half century has so changed this condition that to-day this percentage has been reduced below many of the Atlantic States. . "Perhaps we come to our fullest life in an atmosphere of books not oniy books which deal with history and biography and scientific facts, but books of poetry and of ficiion. Of mese' latter Indiana has produced in recent years many of the best. To me it seems that the successful writers "of our State nave gained their enviable posij tion by a faithful study of- human nature. They have not dealt wholly in the imaginative. It has been largely that which was I about them, and about all of us, that they have pictured the gentle and the simple, the homely and the common things of life. If the scenes of the story have been laid in the past they have honestly studied history. They have kept before them the ideal, but they have portrayed the real. And more than this, they have dealt with themes which find a universal response in the human heart. To-day, as in the past, and in all the days yet to come, there Is in the world both loving kindness and meanness, both fidelity and faithfulness, both heroism and cowardice. The sweet song of love touches each human soul and sets its chords into gentle, yet all-cdmpelling. vibration. Deeds of valor and of war challenge our adi miration. Love of country, love of fireside when will stories of these cease to animate humanity? Love of wife what holier theme will ever guide the author's pen? Love of nature where is the man who fails to acknowledge its dominions? These are the eternal verities about which every story is woven. "In this building has been gathered this wealth of song and story. Here may be found the best of our pictures, our highest conceptions of art and literature. Thus we endeavor to portray our love for Indiana's poets, bards, romancers, painters, artists, her sweet singers, living and departed," all who have drunk at the Pierian spring or been touched by fire from the altars on high the writers of every book and song which have contributed to our Joy or to our gain. "You dedicate to-day this beautiful edifice wrhich we have been enabled to erect because of high conceptions of duty to their fellows entertained by the men of Indiana. Some of us are rich in material things. Many more are not. Death comes to all alike. All of the material Is left behind. To have been in this world is nothing; to have amassed riches is nothing; to have acquired fame is nothing; to have wielded power is nothing all of this is worse than nothing. But to have used wealth or position or power for others' good this is everything.3 To have made a permanent contribution to the knowledge or happiness of our fellows this is great. To have dispelled a shadow or driven away j a cloud or warmed a chilling heart this is noble. - w oras cannot oe louna to aesenne ine man who lives wholly to himself. "Whether rich or poor, he is worse than useless. He cumbers the earth, it would be-better for him and his fellows had he never been born. But all honor to the man who doi votes his talents to his fellow-men of this his influence yet lives, the world will bless his memory, and the sum total of human happiness will be increased. "This handsome structure is not a mere material thing, beautiful to look upon. It is not a mere pile of building material adapted to the uses for which it is built. It is this, and it is vastly more. It is representative of the advances of civilization and .progress. It represents the outpouring of generous hearts. It stands for the high intelligence of Indiana and her citizens. . "You dedicate it to-day to intelligence and progress. You dedicate it to your children and your children's children. You dedicate it to humanity and right living. You dedicate it to all the glorious future. May its purposes never be overthrown. May no son of man ever gather from the books within these walls an idea which will not cause him to look higher. May every picture hung within our sight kindle in us higher conceptions of life and duty. May the inspiration of this Structure and the reason for its building fire many hearts to' nobler endeavor. May the courage of earnest men and the faith of loving women be helped and aided through all the coming years. May it serve higher purposes and have broader influence for good than any of us dream to-day. May the dear State we love so much, and all its citizens, be blessed by that God who rules the destinies of men."

MEDARYVILLE CASE IS STIÜJANGING FIRE Bondsmen Will Continue to Run Office Until New Postmaster Is Named. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. s WASHINGTON, June 3. From present indications the bondsmen of former Postmaster Lewark, of Medaryville, Pulaski county, will be continued in charge of postal affairs in that city for several weeks. This Is the result of a fight over the appointment of a successor to Lewark, which started immediately after his removal. There are two candidates who have the divided Indorsements of the patrons of the office. Up to date Representative Brick has been unable to decide whom he will recommend. It was stated at the department to-day that it probably would be several weeks before the postmaster general will take up the Medaryville case. The salary of the postmaster at North Vernon has been ordered reduced from $2,2j0 to $2,000 a year to take effect July 1. One additional carrier has been allowed for service -in the Elkhart postofüce to take effect July 1. K. J. Tracewell, of Corydon. controller of the treasury, and Professor Wiley, chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, who is well known in Indiana, have accepted Invitations to deliver addresses to the students of Hanover College early In July. Representative Brick, accompanied by Mrs. Brick, has returned from the Annapolis Naval Academy, where he went early in the week as a visitor on the part of the House. He will remain here until Monday attending to matters in the departments of interest to his constituents. GRAND JURY FOLLOWS ALL CLEWS, BUT FINDS LITTLE NEW IN SCHÄFER MURDER (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) jury at Bedford, refused last evening to affirm or deny the statement, or in any way discuss any matter In connection with the Schäfer case. LETTER EXPLAINED' BY DR. W. B. FlETCIIER Dr. W. B. Fletcher, of this city; said yesterday that the letter which he had written Judge Palmer was merely a note congratulating him on clearing McDonald and stating that Attorney Olin Bundy not long before his death had said repeatedly that the prosecution was seeking for a victim and not for the real criminal. The doctor said he had not attempted to tell the judge anything bearing directly on the murder, for he had no information of that character. "Bundy was in my sanatorium about six weeks." said Dr. Fletcher. "He had melancholia, with suicidal tendency. He died of inanition. "Bundy talked to me about the case. .1 talked to him about fishing and hunting to divert his mind, but he always went back to the Schäfer case. He said 'the trouble was that a lot of detectives were employed; that detectives were like bloodhounds and went where they were led. He said that at first they talked with him. then in corners by themselves; and It then dawned on him that he himself was suspected. Bundy had the theory that a woman had done the murder, and always said that the deed was done by a woman. "I myself think this a reasonable theory. About a hundred years ago Count Sadl wrote a number of novels in which he depicted loves of women for women and of men for men, in which one woman for another woman would kill the one she loved. "A notable case of this kind occurred in Memphis some years ago, when one young woman killed her girl friend. More recently. In Sacramento, Cal., a man sitting beside a girl In a park put his arm around her neck and choked her to death because he loved her. Count Sadi's novels have given his name to this class of perverts.
