ANARCHISTS QUIET.
New York City Orators Making No
Inhammatory Speeches.

New York, Aug. 1.-Anarchistic plots
formed in this state, according to state
nents made at the district attorneys
office, seem to be punishable only as
n1isdemeanors- The penalty for a mis-
demeanor may be a fine of from 81 to
$500, or Imprisonment of from one day
to one year.
There is no law said Assistant Dis
tr1ct Attorney Forbes J. HennesSy,
dealing directly with anarchists Their
plots and threats, though, are covered
by the conspiracy laws and that sec
ton of the penal code dealing with I'M
lawful assemblages. Conspiracy to
commit a crime is a misdemeanor, as
is the assembling with intent to COM
nit any unlawful act.
But if the crime of murder should
be committed outside the state, in ac-
cordance with the plans Of a, conspiracy
formed in the state, the offender could
be indicted here for murder in the first
degree"
Chief Devery, when asked if the an
archists of New York had recently been
giving him any trouble, said: Il have
not received one complaint against an
archists in this city since 1 have been
chief of police [ always have men at
their public meetings who understand
the languanges used by the speakers
They have been INDUCING in no inflam-
tory speeches lately. The anarch-
lists here know that one word or move
in the direction of violence would be
the signal for the prompt arrest of the
inciterS''

tered into in America, says the Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald.
Officials of the state department and
the department of justice say that all
the extradition treaties between the
United States and other countries pro-
vide that persons charged with polit-
ical crimes shall not be surrendered for
trial. AS a general rule of information
al law the killing of a ruler or an at
tempt against the life of a ruler is a
political crime. There is no such pro-
vision in the treaty between the United
States and Italy.
1t would, therefore, be impossible to
grant a demand from the government
Of Italy for the extradition of any per-
son in the United States who may have
cOnSpired with the murderer of King
Humbert. 1t would also be impossible
for such persons to be punished either
under federal or state laws for con-
spring to commit a political crime in
a foreign country.
1t would be practically impossible for
the United States to surrender to the
Italian government as a matter of
courtesy. any of the alleged conspira-
tors, as if the attempt should be made,
they would doubtless apply to the
courts for writs of habeas corpus.
While persons engaged in this coun-
try in a conspiracy against the head of
foreign government could not be pun
ished, a. conspiracy to kill the president
OF the United States or even a threat
to kill him, could be punished just the
same as conspiracy or threat to kill
any private person. No request has
come from the Italian government to
investigate the alleged anarchist plots
in this country in connection with the
killing of King Humbert and the secret
bureau has no funds that can be used
in such an investigation except in case
of an extraordinary emergency.

RUSSIANS SUFFER.
Chinese Make 1t Lively For
Them Near Port Arthur.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 1.-Of1cia1 dis
patches from the far east continue to
show that Russian military commanders
there have all they can do to cope with
armed Chinese in the territory adjacent
to Port Arthur. Russian detachmentS
are seeking to disarm native soldiers
who are in the neutral zone contrary to
treaty stipulatiOns.
Fighting has occurred in various
parts of the Liao-Tung peninsula One
detachment was twice attacked by i'm
perial troops clad as civilians and with
their military badges concealed by their
cartridge boxes.
Another detachment lost ten killed
and thirty wounded. A third force was
treacherously attacked and lost twenty
killed, six wounded and four missing.

New York Uptown Gossip.

New York, Aug. Judging by yesters
days indications, the street may be enter
ing upon a period of discriminative Specu-
lation, if not investment The leading
commission houses agree in reporting
remarkable scarcity of orders and the
railroad bond market both at the stock
exchange and over private counters con-
tinues virtually dead. An encouraging
feature, however, is the fact that it Is
only the recently highly manipulated is
sues which have suffered any material de-
cline of late. The railway list holds with
remarkable hrmness. considering the dis
turbance at times in the more volatile
members of the stock list. Railroad
stocks, it is generally conceded have been
widely distributed in the hands of real
investors and it will probably take con-
siderable rise in the rate for money to
cause legitimate liquidation Holders are
content to await with hope the final out
come of the crops and apparently every
one has prepared his mind for the re-
ceipts of unfavora BILE comparisons of net
earnings. While the situation is favorable
in many of its basic particulars, there
does not seem to be any one eager to in
rease their holdings.

PATRICK RETURNS.
He is Extremely Reticent About
What He Saw While Abroad.

Charles Patrick has returned from a
four months trip abroad. He relieves his
brother Frank, who has been on duty
during his absence and who will start
on similar trip this week.
During his trip Mr.. Patrick visited
ireland, England, Italy, Germany,
Switzerland and France He had a
good time but doesn't say SO for the
world to know. But he did, for dozen
times a day he will sit and gaze out of
the window in a brown study, probably
thinking of the Gretchens and Lisettes.
and suddenly burst out laughing. He
was sitting in his office this morning
with his feet on a desk when a reporter
stepped III and asked him what he
thought OF Paris.
Don't think a thing about it," he
said as ne jumped up and looked
frightened.
Did you have a good time on your
trip?"
''Oh. get out. I can't give you a
word
Tell about the German women in the
brickyard' . said his brother Frank who
was shaking with laughter at the beau
tiful bushes on the face of his brother
mo Can't do it. Didn't see but a
few hundred
s.Why, he saw $50 people working in
a brickyard in Germany moulding
bricks and wheeling and shoveling dirt,
said Frank Patrick. He said OF the
$50 that 100 of them were women
How did you like the Bots de
Bologne?" was asked.
Don't know"
HE had a. funny experience in Eng
land" said Frank. He told me about
it last night. He said he was standing
on a corner in London when all the
people in that neighborhood made
rush for q certain spot Everybody ran.
Charley thought it was a dog fight. lie
asked someone what it was and the
person told him lord so and so had Just
emerged from the theater and was en-
tering his carriage. They make a great
said, but it is different in Ireland He
was driving along the Prince of Wales
highway in Ireland and an Englishrnan
said he guessed they called it by that
name because the Prince of Wales new
er rode over it Faith and it's because
there been bether men than the Prince
has rid over it, said the driver
What die you think of the Moulin
EoUge?" was asked the globe trotter.
Don't seem to remember anything
about it, was the answer
''How'S crops over there?
Don't know whether they have any
crops"
Here is another one of his stories,'
said Frank, who was getting on first
rate with his description of the old
countries for a man who has been in
Kansas all during the wheat harvest.
ute said that in Germany the women
hitch the dogs in one part of the yoke
on little carts and put themselves in the
Other side of the yoke and pull. One
man and a man riding on the cart
smoking a pipe. A traveller who had
kodak took half a hundred snap shots

MINISTER WU'S CORRESPOND
ENCE~
Washington, Aug. 1.-The Chinese
minister called at the state department
early today and presented to Secretary
Hay some of the latest correspondence
that has passed between Lii Hung
Chang and the imperial Chinese gov
eminent. The minister's dispatches
state that on July 10 Ii Hung Chang
and several of the most influential
viceroys memorialized the emperor to
extend protection to all foreigners in
Pekin and elsewhere in China. The re-
ply to this memorial was delayed for
some time and the viceroys presented
another petition asking that the minis
tiers should either be given safe escort
from Pexin or that free communication
should be opened between them and
their governments. The reply to this
last memorial has not been received,
but after its dispatch by the viceroys,
Ii Hung Chang received an answer to
the first memorial in which the en-
peror by imperial edict, ordered all
loyal Chinese to protect foreigners IN
the empire.

ment, bankers and such other business
men as conduct businesses which We're

GOT HER MONEY.
Mr.. johnson Relieved His Thrifty
Wife of 1925.

A. o. johnson. whose wife runs rest
aurant on East Sixth avenue, decided
that this was a good day to become in
toxicated SO he went to his wife and
asked for some money. He was refused
and when his Wife's back was turned
took a small bag containing 1925, mostly
in gold, which belonged to her and the
woman who is interested with her in the
restaurant. Shortly after he left the
restaurant the police were informed of
the occurrence and started on a hunt for
Mr.. Johnson. They found him in North
Topeka displaying his wealth and telling
how he had won it at poker. There was
no trouble between johnson and his wife
except that he had the money and, being
very liberal when drinking, the chances
of getting it back We're small.
He was taken to the station and re-
Heved of the money. He had spent only
a few dollars and the balance was turn
ed over to his wife.
