WHEN MUSIC Is CRIMINAL
Father knickerbOcker Must Address
HimSnIf to This Question

New York, March 19-The managers Of
two east side resorts, McGuirk's and
Little Bucks" were held for trial today
by Magistrate Flammer on a charge OF
violating the music hall act, by having
music in drinking place. Magistrate
Flammer said that he thought the music
in these places was the principal attrac-
ton, being used to induce people to come
in and drink. The lawyers for the pris-
oners announced their intention to test
the question whether it was a crime to
have music in restaurants on the Bowery
and legal to have it in the big hotels On
Fifth avenue. They would send people
to the Holland House and to the Wal
dorf-Astoria to see if the music was not
the principal inducement there as well as
1t is down on the east side. Magistrate
Flammer agreed that the matter ought
to be tested to decide just where music
becomes criminal.

THREE-CENT FARES DON'T GO
Federal Court Sitting at Detroit
Knocks Out a Detroit Ordinance.

Federal Court Sitting at Detroit
Knocks Out a Detroit Ordinance.
Detroit Mich, March 19.-Judge Swan,
in the United States district courttoday,
rendered decision which denies the val
idity of an ordinance passed some
months since by the city council, requir-
ing the street railway companies to re-
duce rates OF fare to 8 cents. The courts
says there is nothing in the charter of
the city which authorizes such an ordi-
nance, and allows an injunction to re-
strain the city from enforcing it. Said
Judge Swan: ITO enforce this ordinance
would be an act not Of regulation, but of
spoilation. The police power includes the
general management as regards the pro-
lection of life and property, and the al
commodation of the public; but the leg
islature itself could not affect the fares
agreed upon. 1t might be for the well
fare of the public that fares should be
abolished altogether, but that would be
confiscation and could not be tolerated.
The contention of the city, in defending
the injunction suit, was that since the
older ordinances provided that rates Of
fare mot exceeding cents" could be
charged, that the city had power to reg
ulate the rates at reasonable" figures
The court holds that the substance or
meaning of all these ordinances permits
5-cent fares, which privilege cannot af-
terward be annulled.

WEARING Of The GREEN
7. P. O'Connor Meets The New
Order Big-Heartedly.
THANKS THE QUEEN FOR 1T
Queens Visit Both Graceful
and StateSmanIike.

| New York, March 1T. P. O'Connor,
| NJ p, In the London Daily Mail. writes:
ST as asked to state my views with re-
| gard to the momentous announcement as
to the permission granted by the queen
for the wearing of the shamrock by Irish
soldiers and as to her majesty's visit to
Ireland. AS to the wearing Of the sham
rock, it is tribute to Irish nationality
which will be greatly appreciated. The
swmbolical things of life are all appar-
emily in themselves small things. The
shamrock, materially, is small pant,
but the wearing of it means to an Irish
man centuries of sacred memories and
country's wrongs resisted and hopes
maintained. The sanction Of the wearing
Of it by the Irish soldier, then, is a con-
cession-I have almost called it ire
mendous concession-to Irish sentiment
by the British throne, which must have
vast consequences. But, speaking assur-
eddy in no spirit of carping objection, but
as an illustration and a lesson, may 1
point out that the conduct of English
ministers toward this small question is a
very remarkable and significant example
of the slowness and dullness of wit, the
want of ina gination and sympathy which
have characterized all the relations be-
tween England and Ireland? While the
Scotch soldier could wear the thistle
soldier could wear the leek, the Irish
soldier for year after year, was sent by
some stupid officer to prison because he
wore the emblm of his nationality. And
when an Irish member, session after ses-
sion, called attention to the fact in the
house of commons, he was howled at by
English members and he received either
an abrupt or hostile answer from the
minister. And now, after all the bitter
ness of these years, after the imprison- |
ment and the snub, and all the rest, the |
controversy is ended by the order of the |
highest and greatest figure in the realm.
will not say, as can be said about so !
many other concessions to Irish feeling, |
too late, too late, but assuredly the con-
oession has not come too soon.
And now as to the visit of the queen |
to Ireland. 4 find this act a touching |
and, if I may use the word, a states
manHke and eloquent proof, added to the
many others, that the present sovereign
is one of the wisest that ever ruled these
islands -

TO PAY THE DOMINICAN DEBT
Arrangement which Is Expected to
Bring EnexamnIed Prasnerirv


| New York, March IA dispatch TO the
| Herald from Santo Domingo says: Ne
gotiations which have been pending here
| since early in February between the Dom
| inican government and the Santo Domin-
go Improvement company, Of New York.
for the readjustment and rapid liquida-
| ton Of the entire national debt, as wen
! as the Improvement Of the country's
financial affairs, have finally terminated
in an agreement satisfactory to both the
administration and the American COM
pany. The final arrangements contem-
plates a period of three years. in which
it will be possible to sweep away the ex-
ternal and floating debt of the country.
The plan, which was originally suggest
ed by the Improvement company at the
request of President Heureaux, is to fund
the coupons of the outstanding bonds.
AS the bonds are presented. the improve
ment company viii take pthe coupons
for three years and issue scrip to the
holders therefor. This win give the gov
eminent a respite which, 1t is said, Will
readily enable the administration TO col
lect funds sufficient to meet all obliga-
lions and free the country from debt.
If by any mischance this cannot be ac-
complished there will stin be accumulat-
ed, it is estimated, sufficient fund to
guarantee absolutely the prompt payment
of all debts and the opening OF new and
prosperous era for the Dominican repub-
lie.
By the terms Of the agreement entered
into by the Dominican government and
the Improvement company, the latter,
which will still retain its agents in the
custom houses of the country, win allow
the government more liberal sum
monthly for its budget. This has been a
sore point with the Dominica nadminis-
tration an dpeople for some time, and
the agreement happily brings about a
better condition. that viii make the rela-
lions between the company and the adj
ministratiOn more pleasant and satisfac-
tory. 1t is considered here that Santo
Domingo has made excellent terms with
the American company and has started
upon q path Of greater prosperity than
has ever been known In its history.
