State Secretary, Wilson Approv
ing, Proposes an International
Agreement to Delay War.
WASHINGTON. April 24.—To an
audience composed of the diplomatic
representatives of the nations of the
earth. Secretary of State Bryan, with
the approval of President Wilson,
to-day submitted Ids proposal for in
ternational agreements to delay war.
Regarding his proposal, Mr. Bryan
said:
“The following statement embodies
the principal points of an agreement,
which the President of the United
States is ‘willing to enter into, with
the consent of the Senate, with all
other nations. It does not attempt to
go into oetails, but is only intended
to set forth the main proposition
namely, that the President desires to
enter into an agreement with each
nation severally for the investigation
of all questions whatever.
“Tins agreement is intended to
supplement any arbitration treaty
now in existence or any made here
after. Arbitration treaties always
except seme question from arbitra
tion. The proposal by the President
is intended to close the gap and leave
no dispute that can become a cause
of war.
“The form in which the report is
to be made is left to be agreed upon
and it may be that the time will differ
in different cases, but any time, how
ever short, furnishes an opportunity
(o investigate and deliberate, and it
is hoped the time for investigation
and deliberation will be sufficient to
secure a settlement without a resort
to war.
“It will be noMced that each party
retains the right to act independ
ently after the report is submitted
I t it is not likely a nation will de
clare war after it has had oppor
tunity duiing investigation to confer
with the opposing nation. But
whether this proposed agreement ac
complished as much as it is hoped for.
it is at least a step in the direction
of universal peace.”

Charges that hose used by the fire
department is rotten; that it required
ten minutes to get the central tele
phone station, and that a fire alarm
box failed to work, will be investi
gated to-day following a blaze on
Forrest Avenue this morning, in which
Pour dwellings were damaged and a
number of lives imperiled.
One line of hose, playing a stream
on the home of Charles R. Allison, at
176 Forres't Avenue, burst twice with
in a few minutes and allowed the
flames to get uncontrolable headway,
according to eyewitnesses.
E. H. Wright, of 152 Forrest Ave
nue. said to-day that he was on the
scene when the hose burst both times
and that for fully half an hour there
was only one stream of water.
Hard to Get Operator.
Allison, whose sick wife was res
cued from the burning house by only
(he narrowest margin of time, said
the hose burst once.
Policeman Gaunt declared to-day
that it took him more than seven min
utes to get the central operator. Other
policemen said that they were ten
minutes in arousing the operator.
I. K. Kenan, owner of the Allison
residence, lived next door to them and
said that the delay of the fire depart
ment in arriving caused the greater
-hare of the loss. The fire alarm box
did not register, he declared.
This circumstance, combined with
the alleged delay In getting central,
was responsible for the fire getting
beyond control, lie said,.
Captain Terrell, of the fire depart
ment. admitted that one piece of hose
burst, but said that it was guaranteed
for only three years and had been in
use that long or longer.
Three Dwellings Ruined.
The houses which were damaged by
the flames were those of Allison, at
176 Forrest Avenue; 1. K. Kenan, at
174 Forrest Avenue; Mrs. Annie
Owen, at 178 Forrest Avenue, and J.
C. Owens, of Bedford Place. The last
residence is only slightly damaged.
A young negro woman was probably
fatally wounded by a bullet which
was fired, in a fusillade of shots to
alarm the neighbors. She ran to her
w indow at 24 Fairfax Street £)ust j n
time to get the missile in her breast.
Mrs. Allison, who is the mother of
a 4-week-old baby, is recovering from
the shock of her terrifying experience.
She was carried from the burning
building by her husband and swooned
when she reached the street. It was
necessary to call a physician to tre:U
her.
The crowd which gathered about
the burning structures was alarmed
for a few minutes by the cry that
Mrs. Allison’s bany was still in. the
house, bu tthe infant was found safely
shortly aflerw ard.’It had been carried
out by Miss Louise Marsh, who
roomed in the Allison home. She had
given it in 'charge of a neighbor while
she returned to get some of her be
longings. and because of this no one
knew for a time what had become jf
the child.
Hose Reported Rotten.
Reports have reached the Mayor
that as soon as the water was turned
on some of the hose ripped open like
wet paper and seriously interfered
with the work of the firemen in try
ing to check the flames that totally
destroyed the Allison home and two
adjoining residences.
“These reports bear out the evi
dence i have obtained, that no tests
of the efficiency hose in the de
partment are made and no record of
the guarantees kept,” declared the
Mayor.
“Up to two years ago the hose pur
chased by the department was guar
anteed to stand a pressure of 400
pounds for five years. The hose
bought now has a three-year guaran
tee. From documentary evidence I
have obtained I can prove that the
important matters of tests and guar
antees have been ignored.
"There is no telling how much rot
ten hose a thorough investigation of
our Fire Department might reveal.”
Fire Chief V\\ H. Cummings said
to-day that it was not defective hose
that caused the bursting, and that
the break did not occur until the
Are virtually was out. He said the
hose burst because of kinks, made by
it being wrapped around a tree
Mrs. Allison was the first to see
tlie fire noticing the reflection on the
windows of neighboring houses. She
awoke ner husband, who wrapped her
quickly in a blanket and carried her
from the house to the home of a
neighbor across the street. She was
placed under the care of Dr. O. M.
.Matthews, "of 23 Highland Avenue,
and is in a critical condition.
Their two-year-old daughter was
hastily rescued, and a moment later
Miss Marsh appeared with the baby,
Charles. The occupants of the other
houses escaped without mishap The
negro woman, Sally Jones, was taken
to Grady hospital. She is not ex
pected to live.
Committee Reopens
Probe of Fire Department.
With the postponement of the in
vestigation of Alderman John E. Mc
Clelland’s graft charge until Tuesday
afternoon, the probe of the Fire De
partment again commands the center
of the stage of city political affairs.
J H. Harwell, chairman of the inves
tigating committee, is expected to call
a meeting to-morrow afternoon 10 re
open this investigation.
Mayor Woodward will present con
siderable new evidence. Thomas Rey
nolds, the mysterious man form Bal
timore, and others have been busy
for more than a week collecting addi
tional evidence bearing particularly
on the purchase and upkeep of hose.
Declares Chief Must Go.
Reynolds has declared the new evi
dence will sound the political doom of
Chief Cummings.
After a conference with Mayor
Woodward, looking to the purchase of
an automobile fire engine for the new
Tenth Ward station, the Board of Fire
Masters has advertised for bids.
