EVA BOOTHS MISSION.
VIII Endeavor to Induce Ballington
Booth to Withdraw Charges.

New YORK, Feb. 26 - Commissioner
Eva Booth, who Is now in command OF
tho American division OF the Salvation
Army, yesterday made full statement
of her intended action. She said that the
trouble between Ballington Booth and
international headquarters grew out of n
letter which Ballington Booth wrote on
Jan. 81, in reply To his recall from the
American command. In this letter he
made two definite charges-one against
the incompetency Of his father as an in
dividual, and the other against the meth
ods of the army. Commissioner Booths
presence was In the nope of inducing
Commander Booth 10 withdraw those
charges. When no insisted, she tried to
induce him to submit the matter to arbi-
tration, which ne also refused.
Until the new commanders, Commits.
sioncr and Mrs. Booth Tucker, arrive,
Commissioner Eva Booth will devote all
her efforts to keeping matters quiet. The
property is q second consideration, but
she expects no trouble in getting 1t. The
generals reply to his sons charges is ex-
pected on Saturdays steamer. and there
will be then further hearing.
w. Bramwell Booth. chief of staff,
cabled a manifesto TO the army In the
United States last night 1t is n general
appeal to the loyalty of the officers, SOL
diers and recruits "Your late beloved
and honored commanders have refused TO
obey the generals orders" he says, land
have resigned, and an attempt is now be-
ing made by some people to repeat the
scandal and the disgrace Of tho Moore In.
fanny"
The manifesto says Eva Booth has been
named as acting commander, pending
the appointment of a new territorial
leader" These words, in some quarters,
are taken as an indication that Booth
Tucker has not yet been selected officially
to succeed Ballington Booth.

MARQUETTE.

In statuary Hall in the Capitol, Wash
ington, will be unveiled on Friday a
statue of Father MARQUETTE, the explorer
of our northwest country, that is, the
northwest about the great lakes.
JACQUES MARQUETTE is a poetic figure
OF history and tradition. A city and
Marquette county, Michigan, are named
for him. and it is fitting that his statue
should find place among the memorials at
the Capitol lie was one OF the very earl
lest explorers OF the new continent, max
ing a voyage with joliet down the Wis
consin and Mississippi rivers and up tho
Illinois in 1913, more than three centuries
ago. He wss courageous, Christian
man, was this French Jesuit, and his
humane methods in dealing with the
eborigines are in strong contrast to
those OF good many explorers who
were after goli and adventure and left a
trail OF blood behind them. Some of the
finest legends Of the Northwest are asso-
ciated with his journeys and he died
while establishing mission among the
Indians in Illinois. IL is related
that he left his birch bark canoe and went
ashore one day. lie did not return from
the trackless forest and his followers
sought him. They found he had died at
prayer, knceling before the cross be had
carried 80 long and iearlcssly. They took
his remains back to Wisconsin and buried
them in spot near 81. Ignace. Mich.
that was neglected until last summer.
hen a handsome stone was erected.
The statue is a gift to the nation from
the state Of Wisconsin.

The Dayard Case.
Chairman Hit, OF tho foreign affairs
committee, yesterday reported 70 the
house the preamble and resolutions agreed
TO by the foreign affairs committee, CEN
suring Ambassador Bayard for portions
of speeches he delivered at Edinburgh and
Boston, Eng. The resolutions follow:
Resolved, That II is the sense OF the house OK
representatives that Thomas II. Bayard. am
bassador OF the United States to Great Brit
ain, in publicly using the language above
quoted, has committed an ofense against dip
lomatic propriety and an abuse OF the priv
heges OF his exalted position, which should
make him tho representative OF the whole
country, and not OF any political party. Such
utterances are wholly inconsistent with that
prudent, delicate and scrupulous reserve
which he himself, while secretary or state en-
joined upon all diplomatic agents or the
United States. In one speech he ofends a
great body OF his countrymen who believe In
the policy or protection. In the other he Of
fends all his countrymen who believe that
Americans are capable Of self government !;
'A''NA'ANi a. WAC iiiiIiiSil"tc va
the American people, and in their name, we
condemn and censure said utterances Of
Thomas r. Bayard.
Resolved, further. That in the opinion OF
the house or representatives, public speeches
by our diplomatic or consular officers abroad,
which display partisanship or which condemn
any political party or party policy or organ.

dereliction Of the duty of such officers, impair
their usefulness as public servants and dimin

the saloon is and he sends Us two distinct
