Testimony Intimattng Collision Be-
tween Police and Female Thieves.
New York, Aug. 10.-Almost all OF
the testimony ELECTED at the meeting Of
the Mazet legislative investigating
committee yesterday was for the pur-
pose of showing how frequently men
are robbed in this city while paying
visits to the Tendcrloin, the Bowery
and other sections of the city where
groups gather after the midnight hour.
Mr.. Moss had difficulty in obtaining
witnesses for yesterdays session. The
men who had been victims Of this sort
OF crime appeared decidedly averse to
appearing before the committee and
telling about it. Two hundred and
fifty subpoenas had been issued for
men who had been robbed by women.
Not quarter of these men could be
found. Nevertheless Mr.. Moss was
able to put witness after witness upon
the stand and secure account after &C.
count of robberies alleged to have oc-
Cured in disorderly houses in this city.
Occasionally the witnesses, under oath.
told of facts which appeared to show
collision between the police and the
female robbers.

THE BEST PEACE CONFERENCE,
Declares Emperor william, Is tho In

Declares Emperor william, Is the In
crease of the Navies,
Berlin, Aug. 10.-According to the
Berliner Tageblatt Emperor William
received Congressman George Ed
mund Foss, of Illinois, and United
States Naval Attache Beehler on board
the imperial yacht Hohenzollern last
Wednesday at Kiel, granting them an
audience of three-quarters of an hour.
His majesty began the conversation
by expressing a belief that Admiral
Dewey had not used the words at
tributed to him. suggesting the posi-
hiity of war between the United
States and Germany. Mr. Foss replied
that he had just come from Trieste,
where he had had long talks with Ad-
miral Dewey, who had shown no hos
tMy toward Germany.
The emperor declared his conviction
that German-Amercan relations would
always reclaim friendly. Germans in
America, he said, would take good care
that no aggressive or hostile policy
should be pursued toward Germany.
He continued:
THE increase of the German feet
involves no threat to any other power,
for the stronger a nation is at sea the
more others will hesitate to begin hos
tilities. The increase of navies, there
fore, is in reality the best peace con-
ference"
