Monetary Commission.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-Sena-
tors and members chosen as repre-.
sentatives of their special houses
in the proposed international
monetary commission have so far
very indefinite ideas as to what
will be expected OF them. Whether
they will be called upon to act at
all will depend upon the
important contingency whether
sucn conference will be called
and whether the President will de.
eide that the United States shall be
represented. The provision for the
conference explicitly leaves this
matter to his discretion, but there
is thought to be very little doubt
that il some European nation takes
the initiative he Will put into effect
the law provided for the represen-
tation of the United States. 1t is
believed Germany will issue the
call and that the conference will be
held during the coming summer or
fall

COLORADO SPRINGS, COL, July 10.-A
car full of Atchison teachers which ar
rived here yesterday over the Santa Fe

The train had no sooner stopped than
porters and conductors bounded off to
the police station for help. A riot had
commenced in the morning on the sleep
er and was still in progress One teach
er had got possession OF the dressing
room early in the morning and refused
to give it up. Outside the door, swarm

The porters and conductors were help
less The woman inside refused to sur
render her rights until she had curled
every hair and fastened every pin in
place. On. the arrival of the patrol
wagon the conductor informed her she
would have to yield to the next person
in line or suffer the consequences.
Grumbling, she opened the door, and
came out, and the next woman went in.
Her hair was only half curled, though
she had been in there just three hours.
The train then proceeded on its way, the
teachers still standing in the aisle with
wash rags, curling irons and towels in
their hands, patiently waiting their turn.

DOUBTFUL SOLICITORS.
Father Hayden Warns Against Bogus So
licitors for Catholic Charities.

IicitOrs for Catholic Charities.
1t has come to the knowledge of Faith
er Hayden of the Church of the Assump-
ton, that Topeka has recently been vis-
tied by persons claiming to be soliciting
for Catholic charities.
He has no knowledge of them, he says,
and not knowing whether or not they are
responsible parties advises all to deal
carefully with them. They carry no
credentials to show what they are or
what they purport to be and he has re-
fused them his recommendations.
One claims to be Catholic clergy
man who is soliciting for the Catholic
charities in Mesopotamia, and one other
represents herself to be a nun from
Syria. They may or may not be what
they claim they are but it is we'll to give
them the cold shoulder, Father Hayden
says. There is also another solicitor
claiming to be a nun. These three are
believed to be still in the city.
There have been others at various
times in the past and are likely to
be others in the future, he says. and a
warning should be sufficient
