Great Britain's refusal to submit to
arbitration the disputed boundary line
between British Guiana and Venezuela
may be taken to mean that she Is not
sure Of the strength OF her case or
knows that she has no case; that she
knows she can whip Venezuela in a
fight and does not look for any inter-
ference by the United States.
The position taken by Great Britain
brings up all the possibilities OF the
contention in which she is now engaged
with Venezuela, and incidentally 1t
brings up whatever there is In the Mon
roe doctrine. with mere questions OF
boundaries between other countries the
United States has nothing to do. To
such questions we have never held that
the Monroe doctrine applies. But
where European country. for the pur-
pose of acquiring more territory seeks
TO carry forward It's boundary into a
country on this continent, the Monroe
doctrine applies II 1t applies anywhere.
II Great Britain shall persist in car
rying further west the boundary be-
tween British Guiana and Venezuela,
what will the United States do? That
would be as much an act OF aggression
on this continent as though she were to
gobble the whole OF Venezuela, always
provided that the territory claimed by
Great Britain is not hers by right.
The question has assumed a very
grave aspect. 1t may pla:a this coun-
try where It will have to call halt on
the aggrcssor no matter what the cost
may be.

charge OF the refuge in which Barbara
Aub found shelter say that there was no
chance to tnmper with her The judge
does not think she was tnmpered with.
Dr, Robert Sanford Newton, who was
present at the trial and watched the
woman closely, says she is "a hypno-
lists model" Her mind was under
subjugatIon, so that she was lrrespon-
slble for each act in the drama. She
was under the influence OF the woman
who sent her to Langerman to solicit
his subscription to book. Meeting
Laugerman she fell easily under the
control OF his will. Again she was con-
trolled by the woman who would have
a prosecution. At the refuge the In
fluence OF another mind swayed her in
another direction and brought out the
confession.
Dr. Newton says he will wager any
thing that he can make her retract the
confession. He has seen twenty similar
cases In Paris while studying under
Charcot, the eminent authority on hyp-
notlsm, II DR., Newton is right this re=
markable case Is still in doubt, for It If
impossible to know at what stage OF the
proceedings the woman has told the
truth.
That there are minds such Us Dr.
Newton describes Barbara Aub's to be,
is beyond question. That strong will
power controls weak will power is n
fact established beyond controversy
Where moral responsibility ends with
such minds is a nice question in re-
spsot of which scientists differ and Will
continue to differ.
II It be true that Barbara Aub Is so
easily controlled as DR., Newton says
she is, II is not safe for her to be at
large, for she has no more free agency
than a revolver or bowie knife,

NEW QUESTION ARISES.
May Names BE withdrawn from a
Submitted License Remonstrances

Saloon Keeper Ludwig. of Lawrence
township, appeared before the Board of
County Commissioners yesterday with two
citizens of the township Who had signed the
remonstrance against granting him a IL
cense. He had persuaded them to with
draw their names and they asked the board
to grant permission to do so. The remon-
strators say hat If the board allows names
to be withdrawn from the remonstrance.
they will insist upon their right to strength
en- the remonstrance with new names. The
board took the question of their right to
permit Withdrawals under advisement. say
ing that it was a new question and one
that required consideration. There are
enough names on the remonstrance to pre-
vent the grant OF a license to Ludwig.
The tive Democratic commissioners say
that their action thus far has been taken
with the unity of the Republican commits
sioner. The two Democrats, however, treat
their Republican colleague with scant cour-
tesy whenever there are questions that af-
feet their party. They do not consult with
him or give him any voice in the decision
reached. Their rulings in the Mueller case
were made by consultation of Commission
ers Hunter and Reinecke with the county
attorney, and Mr.. Harding was not con-
suited ct all.

People Are Expecting to Make the
City Pay the Loss-Chances ma

People Are Expecting to Make the
City Pay the Loss-Chances Small.
The Board of Works was flooded yester-
day with reports OF damages of the recent
heavy rain. There were reports of muddy
sidewalks, washed out c~ulverts, water
backed in cellars and damaged yards, and
most of the comp,ainants ntimat that
money compensation is expected. A COM
plant sent in by j. S. Bell is a sample OF a
majority of those received. Mr.. Bell owns
several lots on Gilliard avenue, which were
flooded BIZ. the heavy rain. He paid an as
sessrnenrsfer. a neighboring sewer. which
did awavtxith a ditch. When the rain fell
and the Hood came the water did considera-
Bile damage to Mr.. Bells property. He
claims that such would not have resulted
had the sewer been larger. or had the old
ditch still been in use. The city engineer
was instructed to investigate the damages
to Mr.. Bells ropepty.
City Attorney Scott has not yet reached
a decision in the damage claims against the
city for losses by the hood. 1t Is not
thought that the city can in n way be
held responsible. except IT be IN a Few
could not see how the city could be liable
for damages caused by the flood. The work
of completing the sewerage system has
progressed as fast as possible, and precau-
tons have been taken to prevent such over
flows as that of last week, but the rainfall
was unprecedented, being more than any
sewerage system could accommodate. Sew
eral years ago there was another sucn
Hood. and much property was damaged.
Suit was brought against the city. AT that
time the railroads which had bridges across
Pogue's run had supports in the stream oed,
and these caught the debris and caused the
overflow. The city lost on a trial case in
the lower court, but an appeal was taken
and a compromise was reached. Tne otner
suits. filed upon the same grounds, have
been dismissed recently upon motion OF City
Attorney Scott. There is no decision upon
damage claims in case of floods. but in a
case like the present, where the city has
been expending vast sums to complete a
sewerage system, and has done everything
possible to insure safety to property, II is
not Thought there exists grounds for dam
ages. Pogue's run was not INSTRUCTED this
time by bridge supports.

MARCY'S, IS West Washington St
CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
Albert Hunter Admits Passing Bogus
Checks, hut Denies Making Them.

Yesterday morning John Marts. a grocery
man, reported TO Police superintendent
Powell that Albert Hunter. a young man,
had passed a forged check on him in pay
ment for a long-standing debt. Shortly aft
er this a Mrs. Baker. who owns a restau-
ant on East Washington street, also APP
peared and said the same Albert Hunter
had paid her a debt by rendering a check,
which she afterward found TO be a forgery.
Il both instances the amount for which
the check was drawn was more than the
amount OF the debt and Hunter received
the difference in cash. The check which
he left in the hands OF Marts was for
1855 and the name OF A F. Potts, of the
firm OF Grifiiths & Potts, was attached.
The check which Mrs Baker had cashed
was for 1885 and was signed by II. n.
Pates. The officers were Immediately noti-
ned and during the afternoon patrolman
Schaffer arrested Hunter and sent him to
the police station. There he admitted to
Superintendent Powell that he had passed
the checks. but ne claimed that they were
written by Joyce Boregard. his brother-in-
law Shortly afterward this gentleman APP
peared AT headquarters TO learn why Hunter
had been arrested and>when he was ques-
TONED IL was soon apparent that he knew
nothing at all about the forgeries. 1t is not
known whether there are more worthless
checks set afoat by the young man.

PROSPECT-STREET TUNNEL.


tied the Prospect-street tunnel, which was
undermined by the heavy rain of Wednes-
day. They found that the passage way
was stopped up and that a new viaduct
would have to be constructed. The county
engineer was ordered to prepare plans and
specifications for the guidance of the board
in the measures to os taken. The board
will insist on the Big Four Railroad Com
pany paying for at least half OF the cost.
The tunnel Is one which has caused a great
deal of complaint and the board will not
allow the railroad company to construct
another like IT. The commissioners found
that the principal cause of the damage
TO the tunnel was due TO a ditch dug by
the natural gas company in laying q main.

TEACHERS READY FOR WORK.
Preliminary Meeting Before Opening
of Schools Monday. |

Tomorrow morning, At st'clock, the sum-
mer vacation of the public schools of In
~dianapolis will be at an end, and the twen-
ty thousand boys and girls who make up
the attendance of these schools will set
tie down to another n'ne months work.
The four hundred teachers and instructors
who will have the responsibility of instill-
ing knowledge into their heads attended a
meeting yesterday morning at High School!
hall, preparatory to entering upon their
years work. A great many of the teach
ers have spent the summer months away
from home. and the half-hour before the
meeting yesterday was devoted to a gen.
eral reunion.
superintendent Goss presided over the
meeting. He announced that all the schools
would resume work on Monday morning,
with the exception of the two new build
ings, located at the corner of North Capt.
toll avenue and Twentieth street, No. So, and
No. Is, on Ramsay street. These. he stat
ed. will be ready for occupancy next
Wednesday.
Mr.. Goss called upon several of the
teachers to max short addresses. He first
introduced Miss Wilhelmina Seegmiller, the
new supervisor of drawing. Miss Seegmil-
for several years the successful supervis-
or of drawing in the schools of Allegheny
C1ty, anu was at the 0edu Oh QeT CLASS
in Pratt Institute, in Brooklyn. A paper
was read by Mrs. Perle Wilkinson, super
visor of music. She made a number of
valuable suggestions as to the teaching of
music, stating that music is the birthright
Of children, and that, therefore, they have
a right TO have ii taught them In the latest
improved methods.
After a short recess Miss Lydia Blaich,
who has been studying for a year in
Jena, under the Gregg bequest, related
some of her experiences there. She was
the only woman in a class of sixty, and
was admitted to the practice school, which
was the first time that a woman had been
accorded that honor. She resided with the
family of DR.. Ryan, the head of the peda-
gogical department, and thus enjoyed ex-
ceptional advantages in that and the philo-
sophical lines. She said that the art of
scientific teaching, which Is the weakest
point in American teaching, is one OF the
main features at Jena.
Mrs. Stickney, who enjoyed the domestic
scholarship of the Gregg bequest, spent
a part of her time In studying in Chicago.
and a part in Boston. All the teachers
seemed much pleased with the result of the
foreign study of their associates. They
realized that the results of their study was
for the benefit of the scholars and not
merely an opportunity for study for the
teachers who are fortunate enough to be
included in its limits. Superintendent Goss
spoke last. outlining the policy for this
