Kebruary 1. The Koelnische Voikszeitung, the organ of tho clerical center party, the greatest political power in Germany and the strongest party numerically in the reichstag, contains an article denouncing what if calls the interference of America in Morocco.

If the Vnited States proclaims the Monroe doctrine in the Western hemisphere. Europe must proclaim a similar doctrine in the Kastern hemisphere. America's demand for the open door in Morocco is hypocritical, as America has suppressed the open door in the Philippines, Porto Rico and at Panama. The fact that the Vnited States is supporting Germany in -Morocco is outweighed by the danger of American interference in European affairs. The European powers ought to combine to exclude America from affairs which are purely European, but instead of doing so the powers compete with, one another in paying homage to the Vnited States.

Later Florence Davis, of 237 Second was arrested by Officer Kd Dunn. It appeared that after the girls were taken into custody she sent them a lunch, filso a note containing, a dope pill. She admitted sending the lunch and note but knew nothing of the dope. Her assessment wa and costs. Still later, in fact, about o'clock, John Moore was arrested by Officer Dunn.

Moore, who is known as "Red." was the man who carried the note and lunch to Central Station. He said that the dope must have been in the note when he got it. as he hadn't put it there. "Rod" asserted that lie was a friend of ori" of the girls, and he merely played messenger as a favor to her. Davis was fined '3 and costs.

K. R. Kdmundson notified Lieutenant Mc(Jaln and Officer Lennix at the witching hour of a. m. that he had been ronbed of in 517 Third avenue.

The officers took him back to the house and it wa.s decided to arrest everybody in the establishment. The patrol wagon came, the occupants had all donned their street attire preparatory for an early morning ride, and then something hap-pended. Kdmundson found his money. The cash was secreted in his trousers and he had overlooked it. And thus a bevy of young women missed a delightful ride in the crisp morning air.

Edmund-son had to go alone.

Former Police Captain James Wilson, of Allegheny, must serve the workhouse sentence imposed upon him in Criminal Court over six months ago. The Supreme Court has refused him an appeal to that court from the decision of the Superior Court. The papers were received by Pro-j thonotry George Pearson yesterday. 1 Wilson was convicted of extortion in connection with the anti-graft crusade in I Allegheny, and he appealed to the Superior Court, which upheld the lower court. In asking for leave to appeal to the highest State court, he says that even if the facts were true as alleged by the prosecution, he was not guilty of extortion because extortion could not be predicated upon a voluntary offer of a person to pay a sum of money to be permitted to do an illegal act.

The Supreme Court also refused a re-argument in the case of Frank Johnson, under sentence of death at New Castle for murder. The court advanced a number of cases of this district for argument in March, among them being- the one against the Pittsburg Junction Railroad, in which it Is sought to compel the railroad to remedy the smoke evil in Junction hollow.

February 1. In the railroad debate in the house today. Representative Victor Mtirdoek, described the modern railroad magnate as "one who obstructs legislation, is indifferent at times to the decrees, of courts and contemptuous of orders, of commissions: who has permitted his subordinates to work against the purposes of the electorate by the unlawful tise of 'legal who has sought affirmation of his power by control of legislative committees, who has inveterately sought to negative justice by delay In courts: who has dodged from national regulation behind his State chartev. and from State regulation behind his inter-state rights: who has decreed that certain towns shall prosper and other towns decay: who has outraged the helpless with excesses, and connived with the powerful in concessions." He criticised the conservatism of the House. He said the measure tinder consideration was characertstic of a conservative body in a conservative time, hard to prick through the thick callous of a profound prosperity.

"ft will enable the commission to do some needed things directly, other things more Indirectly, but there are wrongs which it will not reach, wrongs which have been crying out for remedy for 40 years," he declared. "The people have been constant in their demands, for of the IS causes of complaints submitted by the Senate committee 20 years ago, are clamorous today. Twenty years ago Senator Palmer, of Michigan, spoke of the doors of opportunity which had been closed to 'the laughing girl and bright boy' by railroad discriminations. The children of that boy and of that girl are still listening to the magnate, who claims that power of making a rate Is so tremendous that it is unsafe for anybody to exercise it but himself." NATIONAL INSURANCE CONVENTION OPENED. Chicago, February 1.

The national insurance convention, called by Insurance Commissioner Thomas E. Drake of the District of Columbia, with the approval of President Roosevelt, opened this morning in the Palmer House auditorium. Federal supervision of insurance companies will be the issue at stake In the convention. The Ames bill, introduced in congress by Congressman Ames, of Massachusetts, for the purpose of reguiating insurance companies doing business in the District of Columbia, and which is held to tend indirectly to Federal control of insurance throughout the country, is the bone of contention. Drake, who called the convention to order pending the election of a permanent chairman, is credited with being the leader of the Federal members of the convention.

In this capacity he will be backed up by Ames, who will present the features of his bill to the convention. There is a strong opposition lined up against the Ames bill, composed of State insurance -officials, representatives of companies and some of the governors of States.

She admitted that John had struck her, hut she didn't mind it, she said. She didn't think he would hav abused her had he been sober. Wise, himself, took a cheerful and hopeful view of the situation.

Their Care Troublesome Question Awaiting; So lotion. It is a matter of historical record that our forefathers in the seventeenth century wore their headgear at divine service and also at dinner, but it has remained for an Knglish newspaper to testify that in its opinion gentlemen sometimes refrain from going to church because of their hats. A daily paper has recently suggested that the very irregular attendance of upper class males at church may be due to the respect with which they regard their headgear and the inadequate accommodation provided in sacred edifices for the safe bestowal of the cherished "topper." They quote a Piccadilly hatter as saying: "I receive more hats to block on Monday morning than on any other day of the week, and judging from the observations I hear, I should say that the owners benefit very little by going to church.

If they place their hats under the seats they are kicked by the occupants of the pews behind, ladies being almost as careless as mischievous boys in this Then if they deposit tho hats on the seats, someone probably the owner himself is sure to sit upon them. Why can't every West End church have a cloakroom where gentlemen can lave their hats? This suggestion has often been made. A small sum could be charged and devoted, let us say. to the clothing of the heathen in West Africa." A West Knd vicar who was asked if this difficulty explained why men did not go to church gave an unsympathetic answer. "I cannot conceive," he said, "even in these artificial and flunieking days, of a man who would avoid going to church out of consideration for his hat.

At regular intervals male members of my congregation complain to me about this matter, and I invariably tell them to wear caps." A verger at a neighboring church who offered as a remedy the suggestion that men should wear opera hats told the amusing story of an experiment: "One gentleman always used to put his hat outside the door of his pew." he said: "others followed, until the whole aisle showed a row of silk hats. This was all right till one night an old gentleman who was shortsighted and infirm came late. Tie helped himself forward by resting his hand on each pew. In this way he kicked every het into the aisle and 'dribbled his way. so to speak, tip to his scat." London Hatters' Gazette.

The Two Greatest IJotchmen. "The greatest Dutchman in the Vnited States is President Roosevelt, and the nest greatest is Samul W. Pennypaekr, governor of the State of Pennsylvania." declared J. Hampton Moore, in responding to the toast, "Dutch Industries at Tlome and Abroad." at the annual banquet of the Netherlands Society of Philadelphia, at the Bellevue-Stratford, Tuesday night. "Despite all the criticism of the Dutch, one of their -characteristics i3 that when they are satisfied they are right they keep on in the even tenor of their way," said Mr.
