STUMBLING BLOCK 111 I'euce Conference Will he German Delegates WHO OPPOSE DISARMAMENT, llussia, America, Holland and Franco arc United However, and "Will be Able to Itulo the Confer'y' enco?The C/.ar's ISarneatncss ? Ills Very Flattering Opinion of the United States. NEW YORK, May 13.?A dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser from William T. Stead, who la at The Hague in the interests of the peace conference, says: "While I cannot repeat directly anything the czar Bald to me, during our interview a few duys ago, at St. Petersburg, it is permissible to toll America that he is in excellent spirits and full of hope for results from the peace conference. There Is no trace In St. Petersburg of the anti-American f^ellnrr which found expression in the German delegate Stangels pamphlet against peace. So far from regarding war with the United States as the Inevitable destiny of Europe, the czar expressed the utmost confidence that the American delegates will stand by those of Russia, France and England In securing the establishment of some definite, practical system of International arbitration for all disputes turning on questions.of law on interpretation of teachers or investigation of questions of fact. The czar also believed the Americana will favor recognition of thn principle o? arbitration in all questions not involving national honor and Interest. The tribunal which It Is hoped will Issue from the conference for the settlement of questions "du droit," will probably be founded on the same principles as those which have worked so successfully* in the postal, telegraph and international railway bureaus at Berne, Switzerland. Th?.t is to say, a small body of jurists and practical men chosen from one or more of the minor powers would be authorized to deal with such questions in the name of, and with the authority of the powers composing this conference. The question of mediation to bo proposed Is simply an extension of thai clause of the treaty of Paris whereby the signers agreed In the case of the Turkish question to Invoke the mediation of other powers before fighting. By the establishment of this principle the powers would voluntarily refer serious disputes to arbitration and the mediation of such powers as they might choose. It will be proposed that each power name one of its highest court judges tc act ns permanent arbitrator who shall always be at the service of the other powers when invited, thus effacing politics and other influences in the selection of members of the court of arbitration. While I cannot repeat what the czar said to me about America, I may say that he likes the United States, and admires the principle of united soverelgr states conducting their affairs peacefully without standing armies. While tho "United States of Europe" Is still far In the future yet the c/.ar'f He is in earnest about checking armaments. and he hopes for great beneficial results from the conference. It is Germany which is the stumbling block on the limitation of armaments France is'thoroughly with Russia. Russia, America, England and Francc will be able, I think, to rule the conference.

Inasmuch as ] private interests and private greed havo failed to llnd a plan that will let all who are willing to work have the : right to live, the time seems ripe for collective effort to solve the problem; i Inasmuch as labor produces all wealth, let us have more wealth.

Clommer was hanged here at 10:05 tl] o'clock. tli On the night of October 28, 1S9C, Mrs. th Emma P. Kaiser, while driving with <)r her husband, Charles C. Kaiser, Jr., about a mile from Bridgeport, Pa., was th shot In the head and instantly killed. qi The husband declared they had been Ul attacked by a highwayman, and exhib- ^ Ited a wound in his arm In proof of ^ his story. The discovery that the wo- m man's-life had been Insured for 510,000 15; I brought suspicion upon the husband, , and he was arrested. Detectives finally implicated James ] A. Clemmer, and his mistress, Lizzie DeKalb, who had been concerned with Clemmer in previous offenses against the law. It \yas Clemmer who per- M suaded Kaiser and Lizzie DeKalb to ( become parties to the murder. On the ; night of the crime he induced Kaiser to take his wife driving. Clemmer and Lizzie De Kalb drove after them, pusslug the Kaisers as they were returning ' in the direction of Norristown. Clem- Bi mer stopped his horse, alighted and started in pursuit of Kaiser afoot. I Kaiser brought his horse to a standstill, and Clemmer rushing up shot Mrs. Kaiser In the head, while her husband held her. She died Instantly. Clemmer then shot Kaiser in the arm to render the highwayman story plausible. Kaiser was convicted of the murder. A year later Lizzio DeKalb was ar- P' rested, and Clemmer was captured bj shortly afterward In Newark, New fe Jersey. Kaiser testified against them, and tl committed .suicide In his cell while '111 awaiting execution. Lizzie De Kalb bt was sentenced to two years' imprisonment as an accessory to the murder. w 40 w IT'S IMPOSSIBLE w pi To Disnrovo Facts ? It is Dceidodlv *>.
