NEW YORK. April 17.?Five thousand
school children shouted for peace among all
nations and an end to war at the Yourg:
People's meeting of the peace congress
yesterday. Carnegie Hall scarcely could '
hold the youngsters, who listened patiently
for hours to speeches sometimes diy and
uninteresting, but rose and cheered and

clapped as loudly in the late hours as they
did in the beginning for the cause that has
| brought together in this city so many wise
' men.
, There was one discordant note at the
' meeting. The program had been too long
i for children. William T. Stead was the last
| speaker. He began his pilgrimage talk, and
' was asking the girls and boys to aid him
, with contributions, when Chairman Max'
well interrupted him, saying, "Your time is
. up."
J "I must go on," said Mr Stead, and there
' was a short wrangle. Mr. Maxwell granted
Mr. Stead two minutes, but the London editor's
appeal was spoiled. When the children
called for "Mr. Stead!" and applauded
Mr. Maxwell motioned to them to stop.
There was an exciting incident at the first
meeting of the afternoon, held in the great
ball room of the Hotel Astor, at which Mr.
Carnegie presided. James W. Van Cleave
of St. Louis,'president of the National Associ.-.tion
of Manufacturers, gave utterance
to sentiments that were not at all to the
liking of the audience.
"No man would rejoice more sincerely
than I," said Mr. Van Cleave, "at the establishment
of universal and eternal peace,
but I am compelled by circumstances to say

that the United States cannot safely lose
sight of Cromwell's injunction to ketp our

Audience Disapproves.
The audience was not slow to express
its disapproval, and Mr. Van Cleave was
no less backward In resenting interrup
tions. He left before the proceedings
closed.
Yesterday was the busiest one so far for
the delegates. It was a round of seswions
from early morning till late at night, with

There w.-re five meetings. In tlie morning
the women met in Carnegie Hall to
discuss their relation to the peace movement.
Harmony ruled the proceedings.
The young people met in the afternoon
in Carnegie Hall, while business men discussed
"The Commercial. Industrial and
Agricultural Aspects of the Peace Movement"
at the Hotel Astor.
Half a dozen college presidents and
representatives of Oxford and Cambridge

the evening 011 what they could do to advance
the cause of universal peace.
Vice Chancellor Roberts of Cambridge

the University of Illinois, who were unable

Opposes Jamestown Display.
One of the notable addresses delivered
yesterday morning in the discussion of
"if!! Relation of Women to the Peace
Movement," was that of Miss Mary E.
A'oiilley, president of Mount Holyoke Colege,
South Hadley, Mass. She said:
iuiiiauuu tiiiers into me very lastness

:he child determine to a great extent what
;he man will be. It is because of the
itrength of this appeal to the imagination
hat the proposed naval and military display
at Jamestown Is capable of accomplishing
so great harm.
"If we really wish to develop the spirit
it mercy rather than that of cruelty, to
exalt reason rather than violence, why
lot depict the enticing splendors of peace
nstead of the enticing splendors of war?"
Miss Jane Adrlams. head of Hull House,
Chicago, received a hearty welcome. Speakng
extemporaneously, *he look for her subject
"New Idea* of Peace," and dwelt at
length upon the part women may play In
bringing about a Christian unite
nations of the globe.
Mrs. Lucia Ames Mead of Boston spoke
in l'he History of t.ie Peace Movement."
Mrs. Kllen M. Hcnrfttin. former preslient
of the general federation of women's
:lubs of Chicago, discussed " The Home and

New Idea in Treaties.
Mrs. Frederick Nathan, presl lent of the

took for a topic "Industry and Its Rela
warfare thinly hidden under a milder name,
has gradually developed to be the greatest
agency for peace. The need of international
relationship in commerce and Industry has
led to the holding of great world fairs,
which have shown how the work of the
world demands peace and fraternity.
"In former days treaties were drawn up
between countries to bind each other to
mutual assistance in war. They were at
best temporary pauses in perpetual war.
But two years ag*> an epoch-making treaty
was drawn up by delegates representing
fourteen European countries, to prohibit the

Young People's Meeting.
Five thousand young people responded to
the invitation to a young people's meeting
at Carnegie Hall yesterday afternoon.
Dr. Nathan C. Schacffer, state superintendent
of public instruction of Pennsylvania.
spoke on "Teaching Peace Idetls,"
saying:
"It seems to me that our text-books, rnir
examinations and our instructions should
glorify the victories of peace above the victories
of war. While it would be a mistake
to niinfmize the sacrifices an army oh navy
makes in the defense of national, rjghts and
jn the protection of the downtrodden and
the oppressed, it nevertheless would be wise
to teach history in such a way that the
pupil would place the poet, the orator, the
artist, the inventor, the educator, the jurist
and the statesman in as conspicuous a place
as that occupied by the \ iclorious general
or admiral.
"How well posted we are upon every war
our people have waged. How little we
know of the disputes which have been settled
by arbitration. How familiar we are
with the Monroe doctrine, and how seldom
we speak of the arrangement made during
Monroe's administration for disarming
along our Canadian boundary?which has
secured peace between the i'nSted States
and Great Britain in spite of acute disputes
"Our teaching of history should give rise
to a public sentiment that will make war
impossible except for the maintenance of
justice, law and order."
Dr. James J. Walsh of St. John's College
discussed "The Struggle for Life and
Peace."
Prof. Henry Turner Bailey, agent of the
state board of education for the promotion
of Indstrial drawing. Massachusetts,
spoke on "The Peace Movement and the
Arts." He said:
"The paths of military heroes have always
been marked by the annihilation of
priceless treasures, precious works of art
impossible to reproduce. \var has swallowed
up all but a handful of the wonderful
works of the artists and craftsmen of
? thousand generations, and left us poor
indeed.
"The Incompatibility of war and the arts
is symbolized In every decorative representation
of peace ever painted: If war at
times has galvanized the arts into semblance
of life, peace has ever breathed into
them the very spirit of life itself. Artists
have an instinctive dread of war, and the
craftsmen in all ages have fought only
under compulsion. The high tides ir. artistic
production were times of comparative
peace. The world has yet to see what the
arts may become under perpetual peace.
"Peace fosters the prosperity of the common
people and the growth of commerce,
Intelligence and of love. Tnis means an
ever-increasing demand for works of art.
"The arts have produced in the past for
the rich and powerful. The arts will never
have the chance to produce for the people
until war shall he no more. With the dawn
of universal peace the arts will come to
their own."
S??nf?rlfa HnMnhrA en/.Vo ??
"The Christ of the Andes." saying, in part:
"In 1S!?H. when an outbreak seemed imminent,
peace was restored between Chile
and Argentina through the mediation of
Queen Victoria. For over seventy years
ttiere had been disputes relating to the
true boundary lines. In litoo each nation
seemed ready to fly at the other, when the
Argentine bishop of Anjo. Monsignor Benevente,
spoke for international peace, and
suggested a statue of Christ to be placed
at Puente del Inca, a station on the Transandean
railway, 14,0(K) feet above the sea.
"The young Argentine sculptor, Senor
Mateo Alonso, was selected for the work,
and after a time the statue was cast in the
arsenal at Buenos Ayres, from bronze cannon
taken at the time Argentina was lighting
for her independence against Spain.
"Meanwhile, the foreign diplomats, the
church and the women of Chile and Argentina
worked untiringly lor the cause
of peace, with the result that, In May, llto.'J,
the cruiser Chacabuco left Valparaiso, carrying
the treaties of peace and the delegates
for their consummation to Buenos
Ayres. King Edward had sent Sir Thomas
Holdich as arbitrator, with instructions to
'make peace with honor, if possible to do
so.'
"When the result became public Senora
Angela de Ollvlera Cezar de Costa invited
President Roca of Argentina and the delegates
and representatives from other countries
to Inspect the great statue of Christ,
at the foot of which there gathered not
only the churchmen and the diplomats, but
the mothers of Argentina. 8he asked that
the statue be placed on the highest accessible
pinnacle of the Andes between
Cli#? and Argentina.
"Thousands from both countries were assembled
on March 13. liHH. when th? veil
was drawn aside, revealing the great staiue,
which cost $100,000, witii the Inscription on
its granite pedestal:
" Sooner shall these mountains crumble
to dust than Argentines and Chileans break
the peace which at the feet of Christ the
Redeemer they have sworn to maintain.'
"Argentina and Chile have already, in the
beginning of this great century, cast the
first vote for universal peace."
Baron d'Estournelles de Constant told of
his visit to the White House. He said the
President's children pretended to offer him
candy in boxes he found to be empty, put
their guinea pigs In his pockets and the
like, but he found them good children, loving
their parents and each other. Some of

Industrial Meeting.
John Barrett, former minister to Colombia,
spoke at the meeting at the Hotel Astor
yesterday afternoon, when the "Commercial
and Industrial Aspects of the Peace
Movement" were considered. He said:
"The international conferences of American
republics have so much to do with promoting
harmony of interests among the nations
concerned that all other eovornmanto
of the world, especially those of Europe,
must concede that they are second only in
International significance to those gatherings
at The Hasue.
"The three conferences held in the last
fifteen years have set many wheels of PanAmerican
activities in motion that never
would have started otherwise. They have
acted as a deterring influence on wars and
revolutions.
"This institution, which is supported by
the twenty-one independent nations of the
western hemisphere. Is becoming a powerful
international agency, not only for the promotion
of commerce and trade, but for the
cementing of closer ties of friendship and
association.
"The United 8tates haB no desire to
retard the growth of European trade in
her sister republics, but holds that there
is abundance of opportunity for the United
Btates and Europe alike; and. in turn, the
United States government, in the hope of
seeing South America reaching out for
wider markets in the United States, trusts
that she will also build up and extend her
trade in Europe as well as in the United
States, and thereby bring about a greater
prosperity for all concerned."
James W. Van Cleave spoke on the "Imp?mnce
of Peace in Industry," saying. in
part:
"Americans must be allowed to rule
America. The Monroe doctrine was one
of the longest steps toward universal peace
the world has ever seen. It removed onehalf
of the globe from the clashing ambitions
and injustices of old-world politicians.
,
"International-commerce is the greatest
promoter of international peace. The
more buying and selling between nations
the better friends they become. Each has
a stake in the game of International peace.
For selfish reasorts each has an Interest
in the other's welfare.

Washington Dally Star. The genuineness of this
which the leading nations of the world are
represented to adjust issues In dispute between
nations peaceably. A court, reinforced
by the armies and navies of the
great nations, would command respect.
"American manufacturers, with $14,000.000,000
Invested and more than 3.500,000 persons
on their pay roils, depend upon the
perpetuation of world peace for continuance
of their rirosneritv. The finishoil nrnrl

"If there be any virtue, therefore, in the
multiplication method of appraising things,
the interest of American manufacturers in
peace is large."
Former Gov. of New Hampshire Nahum
J. Bachelder, master of the National
Grange, said in a brief speech:
"I am here to represent the great industry
of agriculture and those engaged in it.
Agriculture furnishes the mainspring of
industrial activity. The heaviest public
burdens the farmer has to bear are the
taxes laid to support military establishments,
and universal peace would usher in
utoninn conditions.
"My only object is to pledge the support
of the farmers to any policies that may be
inaugurated by this congress for the promotion
of universal peace.
"We believe that. If wars can be averted,
all Industrial and commercial Interests will
be promoted without detracting one iota
from our dignity as citizens or from our
standing as a nation among the nations of
the world."
Merchants and War.
Marcus M. Marks, president of the National
Association of Clothiers, who presided,
said:
'Merchants share with the professional
community ne sentimental aversion to
the injustice and terrors of war, and they
have a selfish interest which prompts them

preserving peace.
"Commerce depends upon the stability
of government and the friendly relation
between nations for uninterrupted and
profitable exchange of commodities. Only
such nations as are in peaceful and friendly
contact can thoroughly, sympathetically
and satisfactorily study and supply
each other's wants, thus developing mutual
trading Most successfully.
"The ' National Association of Clothiers,
representing the third largest manufacturing
industry in the United States, at the
national convention held in Boston last
month enthusiastically indorsed the principles
and aims of this peace congress.
And you merchants and manufacturers,
representing all our industries, I feel absolutely
certain that when you are asked
how you stand on the question of international
peace there will be one mighty
-aye!" "
The support of the New York board of
trade and transportation to the peace movement
was pledged by William M. Carroll,
president of that organization.
University Meeting.
President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia
University presided at the university
meeting in Carnegie Hall last evening.
He said:
"Last night on this platform poor use
was made of a noble sentiment. Infamous
the nation which does not sacrifice everything
for her moral integrity." said the
speaker, and he Interpreted this as an excuse
and foundation for expressions In
favor of wanton -militarism. He misinterpreted
the real feeling of the people for
whom he presumed to speak.
"It is a full generation since the nations
of western Europe have stained their handfe
with war against each other. At no time
in history has economical and industrial
progress been so rapid as during the era
of peace. Believe me, the moral integrity
of a nation Is shown "not by surrender to
militarism, but stern resistance to It.
"Infamous, indeed, is the nation which
will not sacrifice everything for its moral
integrity, but it will And its moral Integrity
is following the teachings of ethics i
and the exhortations ofc reason, to which
the universities give constant and emphatic
voice." ? .
Dr. John Rhys, principal of Jesus College,"
Oxford University, said:
"I would call your attention to a movement
at Oxford, set on foot by Cecil
Rhodes, which enables each of your states
to 9end to Oxford a number of selected
students to go through a part of their
academical career. -?

The Rev. E. S. Roberts, master of Gonvllle
and Cains College and vice chancellor
of Cambridge, said:
"There has been no united effort of the
pulpit to break down the spirit of the
people who are led to believe that war at
times is justifiable. The demon of war
must be exorcised in time of peace.
"Common effort on the part of all ministers
should be turned to this subject, and

for sober second thought in times of great
general excitement. He was the man who
was trained to be the barrier which would
prevent public excitement from overwhelming
the land.
"We hear of public sentiment and 'public

neither of them. What we must have and
what the university man must ot&ud for la
public reason."

Federation of Labor, said. In part:
"Today the white flag no longer indicates
a yellow streak, and It requffes courage for
a man to say 'Peace' Instead of 'War.' Now
it is written down that the man who fights
