PENDANTS under indictment charged
with impersonating election officers,
making fraudulent returns and stuffiing
the ballot box in the Thirteenth division
of the Seventh ward at the election for
state treasurer last November failed to
answer their names in court and their
bail was declared forfeited. Three OF
the men were never arrested and the six
others were arraigned to plead. After
announcing the forfeiture Of th9 bail,
the court issued bench warrants for the
arrest of the men.
The district attorney announced his
intention of Immediately bringing suit
against the bondsmen for the recovery
of the amount of bail. There was every
indication that the defendants had fed
from the city rather than stand trial.
All efforts to locate any of them proved
fruitless.

GREAT RICHES
Does Not Bring Happiness: But Content
Does, Says MIR. yerkes.
New York Worldly

New York Worldly
Charles T. Yerkes, millionaire, who
made his immense fortune from street
railroads, told a reporter of the World
yesterday the accumulation of great
wealth does not produce happiness.
1t was in this splendid mansion at
No. S64 Fifth avenue that Mr.. Yerkes
made that assertion. In the white and
gold hallway, hung with valuable
draperies, with roses in infinite variety,
blossoming in every nook, Mr.. Yerkes
said:
mo, wealth does not buy happiness,
1t only buys luxuries. Luxuries are only
the fringe of happiness"
Mr.. Yerkes, who is one of the best
natured of men, seldom speaks with
out smiling. He did not smile when he
said that. He was never more serious.
Mr.. Yerkes wrote paper that was
read on Friday night before the Com
mercial Teachers Federation of Chica-
go. In 1t he declared that riches do not
bring happiness.
And 1 meant it ALL" said Mr.. Yerkes.
''Is king or queen any happier in the
possession of millions than the laborer
who earns an extra penny and brings
an apple home to his wife? No monarch
could ever enjoy such happiness as
that poor man. 1t is beyond his
sphere
"Contentment should be the great rul-
ing power of mankind. If a man or
woman can only be content with what
he or she has there would be more hap
piness. 1t is the hunt for wealth that
can never be gained that makes men
unhappy and often drives them to
wrongdoing. We cannot all be million
aires.
II am no going to preach sermon
through the World, / am merely going
to give my belief that riches do not
necessarily bring happiness. Men often
think because man is amillionaire he
has everything in the world he wants.
Well in way he has, but often he has
no more happiness than the poor man,
and in many cases not as much.
"The great thing to remember is that
we are all parts of great nation. If
it were a nation of 100000 millionaires
1t would have no power. 1t is the COM
petition of the poor against the rich
that makes the nation prosperous. Were
1 man with a humble home 1 would
try to make that home just as happy
as a home could be. l would be content
ed with it, and would make my family
happy and contented, too. 1 would be
just as good as any man.
II want>to say, too, that consider q
good business education far better for
young man than sending him out in
the world a classic scholar. Combine
the two. Tell the young men who are
starting out with the new centure to
keep good company or none. Never be
idle. Employ your mind when your
hands are not employed. Good character
is above everything else.
II suppose there are thousands who
will say that it is easy for me to talk
this way. They will wonder why do
not practice what 1 preach. 1 was al
ways contented. act never hunted for
great wealth. 1t just came"

AWFUL COST
In Lives and Money of the Policy OF ''Be-
nevolent Assimilation"
(New York World.)

(New York World.)
Mr.. Mckinley has been at Manila a
year and four months. He has had un-
disputed possession. Under the pro-
lection of scores of thousands of bayo-
nets he has had the fullest opportunity
10 put into practice his benevolent
assimilation" i~a
What is the result of this intimate
intercourse? A general uprising of the
people plotted and only prevented a
lucky chance; the garrison of Manila
doubled to overawe tile people.
He has been practicing what may be
called a more Strenuous" sort of
benevolent assimilation" in the out
lying districts for IL months. He has
swept the towns and the rural dis
tricts Of LuZon with fire and sword.
Result: He can show himself only
where ne is protected by circle of
bayonets; guerilla warfare in the north !;
insurgent armies in the south.
Mr.. Mckinley has spent on this war:
In appropriated money. .... $500, ,000, 900
In debts which congress is
expected to pay ............ $4,000, 900
In American lives ............. 1928
Mr.. Mckinley has got 1.-The open door"
y,
by the expenditure of few dollars in
| telegraph tolls and postage. What
more do we want in the Philippines
than the opportunity for Americans to
develop the commercial possibilities
| of the islands and use them as depots
| for the Oriental trade? These objects
| and all the naval stations and pro-
tectorate, If we wish it, could all have
been gained without bloodshed, without
taxing the American people, without
giving the world the melancholy spec
tacle of democratic republics presi-
dent denying that human beings have
human rights,
Because Mr.. Mckinley started wrong
because he has gone on from folly to
folly, is that any reason why the
American people should continue tc
tolerate his bludering in the costly
effort to initiate England at her worst
Does not the superheated Mr.. McKin
ley need vigorous colddouche oi

German People Hope For Alli-
ance With Russia.
THE KAISER VERY MUCH AROUSED.
Expected to Make Speech Through
Which He Will Touch Upon Seizure %
German vessels-Indemnity to BE DE
manded by Germany.

LONDON, Jan, 9.-The Berlin CORE.
spondent of The Daily News, IN a dis.
patch dealing at some length with the
question of the seizures of German yes.
sells by British warships, says:
at cannot be denied that the idea of
an anti British coalition is very popular
here. Hopes are now placed in Russia.
Without being pessimistic, l must say
that the present juncture is extremely
critical. AS matters stand, only the
fact that no power wishes to take the
initiative prevents such a coalition from
being brought about"
BERLIN, Jan. 9.-From an absolutely
reliable source it was learned that EN-.
peror William Will make an important
and sensational speech tonight at the
century festival of the Berlin Technical
High school. His majesty's remarks
will be political, dealing especially with
the naval question. and will touch upon
the sensation of the hour, namely, the
seizure of German vessels by British
warships in South African waters.
In confirmation of the statement,
cabled the other day, that the emperor
has become thoroughly aroused over the
continuance of British action in this re.
spect, the correspondent was informed
that he told Geheimrath Miessner, in
tones of deepest indignation. what he
had just heard on the subject from
Count Won Buelow, adding "welche
schmach."
The foreign office authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
Germany recognizes the right of
search within certain specific limits
Among the points enumerated in the
protest filed in London: is one contend.
ing that England has exceeded those
limits. No answer has yet been re.
ceived as to this protest"
On being asked whether it was cor.
rect that joint action on the part of the
powers in. the matter of the seizures
was under way. a high official of the
foreign Office replied that such action
might have to be taken if the seizures
did not cease.
He admitted that Russia was seeking
such joint action in regard TO the inter-
ruption of telegraph communication
with South Africa, but he denied for
mally the report that Germany had
sounded Washington about the feasibil.
ity Of such joint action.
This was subsequently corroborated
upon inquiry at the United States en-
bassy.
The foreign office official ended the
interview with this significant asser-
ton:
Germany will not be CONT with
the mere liberation of the steamer Gen
eral and the other vessels seized by Brit
ish warships, bat will demand indem-
nifty inc these and all similar cases."

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Commissary
General Weston received the reports of
the officers of the Thirty first infantry,
while on board the transport Rio ia.
neiro, upon the alleged poisoning of the
men through spoiled meats. Regimental
Surgeon Frye stated that the poisoning
resulted from fresh and not canned
meat. Lieutenant Colonel Plummer
stated that 2S9 men were made sick on
Oct. " and %, after leaving Honolulu,
bound for Manila, and one man died
This was the result of ptomaine poison
Ing from the condition of the fresh
meat eaten,
