proximity to them just prior to their
missing their purses. None OF them,
however, was willing to directly accuse
the girl.
Oestricher determined to keep his
eyes on the little girl in white" At

wicker basket. Oestricher kept his
G. es on her, and when she stopped at
the hosiery counter, he stopped down
on the opposite side of the counter and
watched every movement she made
through the glass of the show case.
He saw Louise crowd up against a
middle-aged woman standing at the
the woman's pocket. The woman felt
something and looked down. On seeing
the little girl in white, who looked as
innocent as an angel, she became con-
WINGED that she must have been mis-
taken and continued her shopping.
The woman did not lose her pocket
book, as she carried II in her hand,
and Louise got nothing for her trouble.
Louise then proceeded to the jewelry
counter, still Swallowed by the detec-
tive, and he saw her deftly abstract

slipped into her basket without being
seen by the salesgirl.
The little thief then went to the no

whalebone in her basket. A crowd of
women were standing about this coun-
ter and Louise went to work picking
pockets. The detective saw her pick
the pockets of two women so celeverly
that they had no idea they had been
robbed.
When she started for the street door,
the detective arrested her, but not be-

books and examine Its contents. As

British press, and not by the British gov
ernment-s Germany insists simply on Tie
status quo, which Will suffice for the Trans

sources. All speculation beyond that is
baseless. In insisting on the independence

does not dare disregard this warning to
keep her hands off TIE soil Of that brave
little nation
Several of the newspapers point out that
Germany has big commercial interests in
the Transvaal. For instance, the National
Zeitung recalls that the Delagoa Bay rail-
road was mostly constructed by. Dutch and
German capital, while so. 900 marks are
invested in the best Transyaal gold mines
In addition, it is pointed out that many i'm
portant factories have been built in the
TranSvaal by Germans, and the Siemens
company has erected there the most impor-
tant electric power transmission works in
the world, il is claimed producing 1900
horse power. 1t is limited that the Reichs-
tag will shortly be asked to vote several
million. marks with which TO subsidize
Delagoa bay.
The report that letters have passed be-
tween Emperor William and Queen Victoria
relative to the subject matter of the Trans
vaal is confirmed here. 1t is now
claimed that this correspondence has
not been quite conciliatory in. it. its
Emperor has made the statement that,

way, ne IS Still or the opinion tnat Dr

noon heard the report of Baron Marshall

pressed confidence that peace would be pre-
served.
The Tageblatt charges the English press
with classifying the news, and says that ii
is not true that Emperor William and the
German government have asked for help
of the European powers for the purpose of
neutralizing British influence in the Trans
vaal Both, according to the Tageblatt,

been made dependant on the abrogation Of
that convention.
Herr Liebnecht, backed by forty-six So

week, interbellate Prince Hohenlohe, the
German Chancellor, on the position Of the
government in the Transvaal question.
Letters from English firms addressed to
their German correspondents, countermand-

German press urges the adoption Of retail

chants to unite together and pledge them

Ono WarrantO Proceedings Against
the National Lfnseed-Ol Company.

CHICAGO, Jan. n.-Attorney-general Mo-
loney has begun quo warranto proceedings
against the National Linseed Oil Company
on the ground that 1t is a trust. The case
Is similar to the proceedings pushed to a
conclusion against the late whisky trust.
. The National Linseed Oil Company, the
charter of which it is sought to annul, was
chartered under the laws Of Illinois in 1887,
succeeding the organization known as the
National Lnseed Oil Trust. The authorized
capital is $1S0O0,0OO. The Attorney-general's
petition sets out the linseed oil trusts arti-
cles of agreement. 1t is in substance a
copy Of the articles of agreement under
which the Standard Oil Trust and the Dis
tilling and Cattle Feeding Company. COM
monty called the whisky trust, were formed.
II am sure l cannot tell what object the
Attorney-general has in bringing quo war
ranto proceedings against u.s." said Alex
ander Euston president of the National
Linseed Oil Company, to-day. I'VE are a
company organized under the laws of this
State and doing business in this and
other States under a charter is
sued by the Secretary of State in
accordance with the law. We are not a
trust. but do business just any other
corporation does. We do not attempt to
regulate the supply. We are operating
every mill we have except one in this
city, which was burned down several weeks
ago and which We now rebuilding as
fast as the work can be done. There are
several other linseed oil companies operat-
ing in this city,. and there are others in a
dozen or more States in the Union"
w. w. Gurley, counsel Of the National
Lnseed Oil Company. said: I'VE have tried
to show the Encouragement that this cor
poration is in not any sense trust, and
is no sense analogous to the whisky trust.
1t appears we have failed in effort and
that the Encouragement has determined
to proceed against us. All / can say is
that we will defend any suit he may bring
against us, and believe we will be able TO
satisfy the court that we are not conduct
ing our business in any way contrary to
law. At least We will try to do so. We do
not think there is any law in this or any 9TH
er State preventing any company hold
ing and operating property in every State
in the Union. The Attorney-general thinks
there is. There is where we differ. III
the difference between us is to be settled
the courts will have to do It,"

Anachronism of War; will say OF the pres
ent situation that reliance must be had on
the two great iaw-making and law-loving
peoples of the world TO pluck the flower
safely out OF the nettle danger. The ar
ticle proceeds: 1.-The immediate duty before
the conservative forces of England and
America Is to organize for the establish
ment OF a high-class continuous board of in
ternational arbitration. In this matter the
lead may well be taken by the representa-
tives OF that religion which Is first
prue, then peaceable- 1t ought to be an
easy matter to get ParliamentS assent
TO the opinion already formally expressed
by the Congress of the Unlimited States in
favor of the principle of arbitration. What
ts needed Is a permanent system in place
or the piecemeal and naphazard examples
TO which We are accustomed, admirable as
their results have already proved. Once es-
tablished between England and America,
such a system would gradually spread
among the nations of Europe. Sooner or
armament. which is the logical sequence
OF no other premise, and yet will be the
turning point of the continent towards true
democracy and progress. Herein lies
great opportunity for the English-speaking
race: To lead mankind to the glorious
destiny OF peace. 1t Is q mission TO kindle
the imagination and the heart.
