Says No Statesman In Europe Wants War.
ROME, July 81. I'm the course OF dis
cussion of the foreign budget in the
chamber of deputies, Premier Crispi
declared that no statesman in Europe
was desirous of war. The government
of Italy aimed at order within Italian
borders and peace abroad. In regard
to Italy's interest in Africa he said the
treaty concluded between Menelelz
and Italy during the life of King John
of Abyssinia was made to enable
Menelek, with the support of Italy,
to succeed King John on the throne.
The only power that refused to
recognize Menelek at that time was
Russia, which power was now heaping
favors upon the Abyssinian king. The
chamber with the exception of the
extreme left gave cordial approval of
Signor Crispi's utterances.

The average expenses of the students
at Yale College, according to the senior
class book, are 1912 for the freshman
year, S943 for the sophomore, s942 each
for the junior and senior years. There
are many students whose expenses are
much less than these amounts, but
there are many others whose expenses
are much more, to raise the average to
more than the earning capacity OF the
average graduate for several years at
least after he leaves college. These
figures would require an earning ca
pacity Of from .sls to $40 a week. or
more than So a day for the six working

different from the cases already heard.

the court was not competent to try
another case OF the kind.

could not be entertained.

not heard any charge Of misprision OF
treason, and was excused. Captain
Zeigler was then challenged, and ad-
mitted that he sat through the Bowler
trial. The court Overruled the obJec-
ton.
Captain Kinney then read the
charge and specifications, and, when
he finished, Mr.. Neumann asked that
the case be remanded until today, as
he was not ready to go on. His re-
quest was objected to, and, after
great deal of legal sparring, the court
decided to grant the continuance.
