On the contrary, it appears the retire ment of both ministers is traceable to the purchase by Argentina of the steamer Bahia Blanca from the Ger mans, which purchase the British government refused to recognize. "Following the refusal, Argentina attempted to solve the difficulty by appointing as minister at London Senor Toledo, who as minister of marine, handled the negotiations for the. purchase of the ship. He presented his credentials to the Brit ish foreign office some time ago but a considerable period has elapsed without King George receiving him. It is reported there is no probability of his reception in the near future. It appears this might have been expected as the British government never stated that Senor Toledo was persona grata. It will be remem bered the Argentine government has waited a long time for a response to its inquiry as to the purchase of the Bahia Blanca and there now ap pears reasons for believing that Sir Reginald's favorable intimation relative to the deal were solely his personal impressions."' Another newspaper, Las Noticias, in commenting on the situation, says: "Sir Reginald Tower is being re called, and Senor Toledo is return ing because King George has not received him.'* "The occasion for the present situation," it adds, "is the refusal of the British government to recog nize the purchase of the Bahia Blanca, but the real cause underly ing the crisis is the Argentine gov ernment's hostile attitude toward British capital invested in Argen tina." • Before Senor Toledo sailed for London it was announced he would go on the Bahia Blanca. A day or two later, however, a British cruiser took up a position off the river Plate. Senor Toledo subsequently I went to London on a regular liner. According to a current version of the matter, an effort is being made to oi\llst the aid of the United States in settling the question of the pur chase of the Bahia Blanca. for which Argentina paid 7,000,000 pesos, the deal being made through the Swed ish government. It is said this was one reason that Tomas A. Le Bre ton, Argentine minister to theUnitgd States, went to Europe early this year. According to reports, he and Marcello de Alvear, Argentina min ister to France, failed in their ef forts to help Senor Toledo to solve the difficulty. Going For Rest ( Sir Reginald Tower. British Minister to Argentina, denies rumors relative i to his return to London, which is said | to indicate Imminence of a rupture of 1 relations between Great Britian and this country. He declares he is going jto London merely for a rest. When the great war broke out, the Bahia Blanca, a ship owned by the Hamburg-American Steamship Com pany. was interned in the harbor of ' Buenos Aires to prevent her capture by Allied warships. % Sometime later it was found the machinery of the ship had been partly dismantled by the crew to prevent the use of the vessel in case she should be requisitioned by the Argentine government. In June. 1918, it wan announced at Buenos Aires that the ship had been '.eased by Argentina 1 and that the crew had been given per j mission by the German Ministry of j Marine to reveal the places where mlss ! lng parts of the ship's machinery were ! hidden. Later It was learned the ship j had been bought by the Argentine government. The ship, however, never went to | sea because the Allies and the United j States refused to recognize the trans j fer of her flag. It was stated In a , Buenos Aires dispatch last April that the purchase price of the ship would be applied to moneys to be cfalmed from j Germany by Argentina. I The Bahai Blanca was built at Ham- I burg in 1912 and is 491 feet. long, hav- I ing a beam of 59 feet. She is H twin screw steel vessel, being registered at 9,349 tons.

Wiggins, manager of the Penn-Harrls, said to-day that the hotel had decided to follow the example of the Telegraph and place, window boxes in the windows of at least the llrst two floors next spring. Mr. Wiggins declared that any number of tourists motoring through Harrisburg have commented on the appearance of the Telegraph and Bell Telephone buildings with their brilliant flowers and long drooping vines, and in an effort to improve the appearance of the business cor ners of the city the hotel would adopt the same policy. An effort will also be made to have the govern ment, through Postmaster Sites, place boxes of flowers in the win dows of the Federal building and thereby create a quartet of build ings so decorated. Undoubtedly other large buildings in Harrisburg will follow suit and the plan of building decorations, so extensively carried on in Europe, will be pur- I sued in this city. Many visitors have also spoken of the great improvement made by the removal of the poles in front of the hotel. Since the wires have come I down and the big piles cut away, the front of the Penn-Harris presents a much clearer appearance, and has been favorably commented upon. It was partially due to the removal of the poles that Mr. Wiggins is en abled to go ahead with his plans for the flower boxes.
