American Success Alarms All
Europe.
Gustav H. Schwab Says Conces
sions Must Be Made.

Gustav ii. Schwab, the agent for the
North German Lloyd line of steamships,
who returned recently, having spent the last
three months touring the countries on the
Continent, is certainly not in accord with
those persons who have come back stating
that Europe was viewing American CON-
mercial progress with complacency.
The recent industrial combinations In
the United States" said Mr.. Schwab, "have
alarmed all If Europe, and regard it as a
certainty that the European goyernm ants
will institute some sort OF retaliatOry action
to offset the competition of this country.
The high wall of protection surrounding the
United States is bar to their entering this
market, and unless some reciprocal conces-
sions are made these European nations will
resort to some means of defence.
"Oi course, | realize that the difficulties
in the way of combination in Europe both
commercially and industrlaly, are great,
but If nothing better can he obtained by
them tben, they will each seek a means of
action, which, l believe, will irjure the
trade of the United States actin those coun-
rries.
"Germany and England, being the main
producers are necessarily the most injured,
and l was surprised at he number of Eng
lishmen who, comparin, their open ports

ducts 1ere, say that conditions must be rad.
lcalIy changed.
"rhere is the same talk in Germany, and
| AIN firmly convinced that an industrial
and commercial peace between Europe and
the | nltpd StafpS can ,ntV he maintained
by the making OF concessions on the part of
our country, believe these concessions can
be made without interfering to any great
degree with the industries Of America.
Speaking of the recent requirement by
Mr.. Morgan of tie Leyland line, Mr. Schwab
stated that it was giving the British public
a lot Of concern, but the average steamship
man will not believe that the situation IS as
dangerous as many aver it is. Anyhow,
Germany is sure to be abreast of the times
with speedy aud comfortable ships, and with
great carrying capacity, il necessarily.

Woman's League Join Hands To
Down Tammany.

A few days ago the Woman's Municipal
League of New York held conference on
the methods to be pursued in the coming
campaign in its support OF the
Citizens Uricn, to achich it pledged itself
at its last meeting, and it was decided to
use every effort to remove Tammany from
power.
Mrs. /. n. Phelps Stokes presided. Mrs.
Lillian w. Belts, a member of the Execu-
tive Committee, moved the audience to tears
by her description of the sntferings of the
poor under careless and dishonest NUM-
cipal government. She told how laborers
under the Tammany government are unjus
tly ''doeked' of their wages and dare not
complain for fear of dismissal. She cited
instances in the city courts where poor cit
Mens have been treated without cOnsi-
deratiOn.
"Part of the blame for the present mn
niclpal conditions rests upon the women OF
the city, she said. "If we had brought
our sons up properly they would not be as
they aTe."
Mrs. Belts spoke of the duty of the wo-
men present to the women of the tenements
| "whoSe babes have been murdered in their
arms by a government that cares nothing"
In this connection uhe eulogized the late
Colonel Waring, whose care OF the streets

the possibility of decent, clean living there

Dr.. Mopet Arrested.
Cable Order from Detective
Bureou of New York for
His Detention.
Denies Alledged Embezzlcment.

Acting Chief Berries of the Insular Police
received cablegram yesterday from Chief
Detective Titus of New York City saying
that DR.. s. Moret, one of the "McOlellan's"
passengers tcas wanted for embezzlement and
requesting he be arrested IN the steamers
arrival and seached for collateral of Barran-
quillas and Caracas banks.
Chief Berries and 1t. Myers made the
arrest early this morning after waiting all
night for the transport to enter the harbor.
DR.. Moret, who has been serving as ply
sician on the S. s. "Philadelphia" of the
"Rei d" line for some time and who is a
Porto Rican by birth with excellent family
connections in the Capital and ether parts
of the Island, when interrogsted at the pol.
ice station denied any knowledge of the
charges and explained his coming on the
the transport which left but tUo days
earher than his own steamer, to some pers-
onal difficulties he wished in this way to
avoid.
His story is, however, an improbable one
and he will be held until further advises
from the United States which will be an

"In Time Of War Prepare for it. "
Denver Republican: -" Great Britain en-.
tered the war with the Beers in no condi-
tion to wage such conflict, and this fact
became apparent in q short time. To it is
due in no small degree the loss of military
prestige which the British empire has suf-
fered. Had it been adequately prepared for
the conflict Great Britain would have made
better showing; and in prestige, if in
nothing else, that would have been worth
far more than the cost of keeping its mill.

PpnnS Issue Of Magma Clarta,

The only known copy of Penn'S issue Of
Magma Charta, published in 1913, by the
g." Bradford Press" is the property of the
Meeting FOX SufieringS, representative
body OF the Friends yearly meeting in
Philadelphia Its title is, " The Excelen
Privilege of Liberty and Propriety; Being
the Birth Right of the Freedom Subjects
of England"
The peculiar significance of this book is
that half dozen years after Penn founded
his colony, he wished to have the coloniests
keeny realize that they would have to
stand for their rights in the new country
as well as the old, where they had been SO
cruelty prosecuted. he wrote this BOOK in
order that they might he informed on the
constitution OF their local government, and
know 1chat acare the legal bases Of their
sights as citizens.
Curlously enough, the only proof there
is that this work was William Penb's is
the statement made by Chief Justice David
Lloyd, IN 172S, a great Quaker leader who
was Penn's Attorney General at the time
an intimate friend of William PENIS, and
consequently knew whereof he spoke.
Cullously enough, also, he issued the
book As an argument from Penn's own
mouth for the demands that the Assembly
made III later years against both Penn and
the proprietory Of later days.

Bishop Whipple loved men as men. and
ever strove to break down the barriers of

them from understanding each other. For

Although Bishop Whipple was the an
tithesis of the typical prelate in taste,
appearance and environment, it is an in
teresting fact that no American bishop

any of the trappings of his high office, he
was showered with courtesies whenever he
visited the old country, and was often
asked to preach on some great occasion.
Indeed Americans were often surprised at
the popularity of this pioneer missionary
bishop. But there was no mystery in the
matter; it was a tribute paid to his man
hood, sincerity and zeal. His wise coun-
sells will be much missed in the Episcopal
