London, July 15.—In the house of commons last night Sir Edward Grey, secretary for foreign af- fairs, replying to a suggestion that an armistice be enforced upon the Balkan states by the powers, said it was impossible to exaggerate the horrors of the war now going on but that mere words would be unlikely to af- fect the situation to produce any improvement in it. Also, there was another difficulty. In such an entanglement of affairs as the present situation presented it would be an arduous task to effect any convert of the Euro- pean powers, and in any case it might not be wise to resort to force in order to impose peace.

HOTEL BAR REFUSED TO SERVE A NEGRO But Licensing Board Declined to Take Any Action When Ques- tion Is Before Them. Vancouver, July 12.—Can a li- cense holder refuse to sei] liquor to a negro? This question was asked by Mr. J. E. Bird in a com- plaint to the license commis- sioners yesterday regarding the refusal of the proprietor of the Stratford Hotel to serve drink to a colored man. In his complaint, the lawyer intimated that his in- structions were to test the ques- tion in the courts in the event of the board refusing to move in his favor. Mr. J. B. Stevens, the license holder, who was present in per- son, explained that in the local- ity in which he was doing busi- ness there was a negro popula- tion of nearly 500, and if he served one he would have to serve all who wished to buy from him. This, he said, would be detrimental to his business and would hinder him from keeping a strictly first class hotel. After considerable discussion of the question involved the commissioners unanimously de- cided to do nothing in the matter and accordingly the letter was filed.
