Peter ChihK market manager, said
that the success of tlm market bad

clared that theie will be a meeting of

Another urb market was opened tins
morning at the corner of Kensington

as was expected. About twenty -eight
wagons were iu line, five of them fann

J." per cent less than in the stores of
The neighborhood. The fanners' prices
were slightly higher than those of the
citv hucksters.
This market is to be open three davs

which is only begun ,
"We have finished the formulation
f the peace, but we linve begun a pi:"
of co-operation which I believe w II
broaden aud strengthen as the o.ns
go b so that this grip of the bund
that we have taken now will not iue.1
to be relaxed. We have been anil shall
continue to be comrades. Wc shall
continue to be co-workers in tasks
which, because they are common, will
weave out of our sentiments a common
conception of dutv and a common con
eoption of the rights of men of even
-".ce and of every clime. If it be tp-c
that that has been accomplished, it it
,a ver great thing.
A Most Vital Thing
''As I go awav from these scenes I
think I shall realize that I have been
,iresent at one of the most vital tnings
hnt have happened in the historv of
nations. Nations have formed contracts
with each other before, but thej never
have formed partnerships, tliev have ns
sociated themsehes temporarily but
the. have never before associated them
selves permanent!.
"The wrong that was done iu the
waging of this war was a great rong,
but it wakened the world to a great
moral necessity of seeing that it was
neoessan that men should band them-
solves together in order that sucn a
wrong should never be perpetrated
again. . , ,
' Merely to beat a nation that was
wrong once is not enough. There must
follow the warning to all other nations
that would do like things that they in
turn will be vanquished and shamed it
thev attempt a dishonorable purpose.
No Longer Far Apart
"You can see, therefore, sir, with
what deep feelings those of. us who
must now for a little while turn aw aj
from Frame, shall leave our shows,
and though the ocean is broad it will
beem verv narrow iu the future. It
will be easier to understand each other
than it ever was before, aud with the
confident iutercouise of co-opeiation the
understanding will be stiengtheued into
action, and action will itself educate
alike our purpose and our thought.
"SSo, sir. in sajing good-by to France
I am unlj samg a sort of physical
good bv. not u spiiltual good-by. I
shall iVtain in ni heart alwajs the
warm feelings which the generous treat
ment of this great people has generated
in my heart. And 1 wish in my turn,
sir, to propose, as jou have proposed,
the continued and increasing friendship
of the two nations, the safety and pros
perity of France and closer and closer
communion of free peoples and the
strengthening of every influence which
instructs the mind and the purpose of
humanity."

There were present diplomats and dele

members of the rabiuet, former

The dinner table was in the form of
a horseshoe with ".",0 colors laid. Presi

with Mrs. WiKon at the host's left and
Mine. Poincare at Mr. Wilson's right.
During the dinner the Republican

After paving tribute to American
participation in the war, reviewing tlm
woik of the Peace Confeience and out
lining what still remains to be done,
Piesident Poincare said :
"The tn'iities unie signed mn-l bo

l'ho delegates of the
victorious countries have not met uuiiug
those long months and have not con

"We want, all of u, as jou do, Mr.

and that it be not a passing flash of

"We must remain together, firmly

of thought and speech is regarded as it
public safeguard and not as a danger."
Stiong indignation against the gag
measure, was voiced last night at
n mass-meeting bold iu the Broad Street
Theatre.
More than a thousand labor unionists
heard denunciations of these measures
by I'niteil States Seuator Joseph 1.
France, Republican, of Mnr.vland; the
Rev. Norman Hill, of New York, and
Prof. William I. Hull, of Swarthmore.
The climax came with this declara
tion by Senator France:
"I am for the ending of gag rule.
The men who would support a statute
of that sort nrc not to be trusted in
spite of all their protestations.
"They are either insincere, ignorant,
or political reactionaries. I care not

Prolonged applause greeted this state
ment. A few minutes earlier In his address,
the Maryland senator quoted this ex
(tact from Benjamin Franklin to drive
homo his point:
"Those abuses of the freedom of
speech nre the excesses of liberty. They
ought to be suppressed, but to whom
dare we intrust the power of doing It?
An evil magistrate, armed with the
pi-vver of punishing for words, would
have placed it. his hands n weapon de
structive nnd terrible. Under excuse
of pruning off exurberant branches he
might cut down the tree."
Four Resolutions Passed
The sentiment of the meeting was
crystallized in four resolutions, adopted
unanimously, which follow:
"First. We protest against nil such
un-Amorlcnn icprossive legislation as
the so-called espionage act, which places
a limitation upon nnd interferes with
the exercise of the constitutional rights
of free speech, a free press and free
assembly.
"Second. We earnestly urge the Im
mediate repeal of the espionage act,
and express our unalterable opposition
to the enactment by the lngislntivc
bodies of the states, or hv the Congress
of the raited States, of any of the
proposed so-called peacetime sedition
arts.
"Third. Wo urge the necessity, par
ticularly during the reconstruction
period, of full and free discussion of
all' governmental questions.
"Fourth. We earnestly urge the
gtnnting of pardon and amnesty to all
political prisoners."
Lost "I's" Out of Ideals
Senator France began with a refor
enc e to the Pence Conference.
"Some men." be said, "went to the
peace table of Furopo, who not only
lost their vision, but their eyes. They

The Maryland senator described ns
"a very pretty platitude" the rall.v lug
cry thnt the world war was one be
tween democracy nnd autocracy.
Reaction and Reform Again
"This lias been no war between mere
governmental forms," ho contended.
"This has been one more of those vast,
violent, manifestations of that ngc-long
contest of reaction and reform, the
rusty, iron-bound past ,nd the golden
future, the rule of the sword nud the
new expression and cxpnnslon of the
souls of men,"
The sonntor placed America's politi
cal thinkers In three categories.
"First." he said, "the reactionaries
who believe reconstruction tvill bring
back the old conditions.
"Second, the extreme radicals. T do
not condemn them. We need 'hem
hero, but I disagree 'with their belief
that there is some sudden scheme which
will give us a social condition by which
nl! men will be given absolute equality
of circumstance.
"Third. The constructive liberals,
who want absolute equnllty of oppor
tunity for all. They are determined by
orderly and constitutional moans to give
every man rieh or poor, white or black
the means to get all the opportunities
possible for life, health and education,
so that he may develop the very best
thnt is in him."
