NO REDRESS ron HEIGHT.
A Naturaiized American Citizen Thrown
Into jail In Akacc-Lorraine.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Xavier Hecbt, a
naturalized citizen Of the United States
and n native Of Alsace-Lorraine, called at
the State Department yesterday and asked
that Germany be called upon TO explain
the action Of its officials ut Rufach, Alsace-
Lorraine, In arresting him while on n recent
visit to that country to settle up the estate
OF his mother. Hecht. In a letter filed
several days ago, complains that he was
not only arrested. but thrown into a foul
prison and kept there for twcnty-four hours,
In spite OF his American passport n natur-
alization papers. He says the German off,
Gals spat at the passport and declared that
Il was worthless in Germany. He says that
he complied with the local requirements
by notifying the police Of his arrival in
the place, but was seized In the house Of
his relatives and roughly hurried to the
Jail, where he was held for about twenty
four hours and then ordered to leave ut
once.
notwithstanding these indignitics, Hecht
was Informed at the state Department that
there is no redress. In q letter 10 Hecht,
Assistant Secretary of State Hill says:
"In reply l have 10 say that Alsace-Jor-
raine, having become n part OF Germany
since our naturalization treaties with the
other German States were made. and no
treaty having since been negotiated rela-
tive TO visits TO those provinces OF former
residents who have become naturaIzed
American citizens, 1t is a fact that natives
Of Alsace-1orraine. under existing cir
cumstances, may be subjected TO incon-
venicnce and possible detention by the
German authorities in case they return
without having first sought and OBJ
tained permission to do so from
the Imperial Governor at Strasburg.
The Department, while not acquiceclng
In the German construction Of existing
treaty and Law in their application to United
States citizens who visit Alsaco-l orraine,
is nevertheless. in the absence of explicit
treaty stipulations, without the means OF
preventing their detention and expulsion"
The Inter paragraph Of the letter IL con-
strued by State Department officials to
mean that Germany refuses to ALLOW the
present naturalization treaties 10 apply
TO Alsace-IorTaine, and that any former
natives OF that territory returning TO Ger
man territory do so at their own risk, in
spite Of their American passports and
naturalization papers. Hccht says that no
will file a claim with the State Department
for damages arising out of his arrest and
detention.

Tho Hon. Arthur Pue Germans
DouQuets.

The enthusiasm with which some of
his friends in the South are hailing the
prospect Of Mr.. GoRMAN's return to the
Senate ought not to pass unnoticed.
Here are a few specimen plaudits from
the Nashville Bonner:
Mr.. GoRNAs Is not the most admirable type OF
statesman, but he Will be. In several essential
respects. an Improvement on Senator wEILINo-
TON"
"His political conscience is Of the elastic va
riety."
"No positive dishonesty has been laid TO his
charge"
Though he Is not q man In whom absolute faith
can be placed. he can be relied upon not to align
himself with any policy radically hurtful to the
country's Interests"
Such is the temperature Of the JOY
manifested over Mr.. GoRMAN's apparent
success in e~lecting n sufficient number
of German men to the Maryland Legis-
lature 70 insure his own election TO tho
United States Senate for the term be-
ginning on March 4, 1908.
If these compliments seem a little am
tiguous, a trife b~ackhanded. or slightly
inclined toward the sinister shoulder. il
must be remembered that IL is not
always the direct, the positive, the
unmistakable, the rectilinearly straight
forward, which Mr.. GoRMAN prizes most
as a statesman and reorganizer.

The siberian Railroad.

1t is not entirely accurate TO speak of
the Siberian railroad as now completed
between Russia and the Pacific coast
termini at V~ladivostok and Port Arthur.
The tunnel that is TO carry the track
through a part of the Chalgan Range in
Manchuria, though far advanced, is not
likely TO be finished till some time next
year. NJ. DE WITTE, the Russian Finance
Minister, in his despatch to the Gar,
speaks of the enterprise as practically
though not entirely concluded, and adds:
We hope that within two years the
road will be opened to permanent and
regular traffic"
Though there is still a break in the
line through the Chalgan Mountains and
also around the south end OF Lake Bal
kal. the great road is otherwise COM
pleted TO Vladivostok and Port Arthur.
The connection with Vladivostok has not
been made through Siberia, as some
newspapers represented last week, but
by q branch line to that port from the
M~anchurian railroad. which unites Port
Arthur with the Siberian line at STREET
ensk. Though the Russian Government
has recently decided to extend the main
line down the Amur 10 join the Ussuri
River road. now in operation from Nlad-
ivostok, the extension is likely 20 serve
only the eastern part of Siberia through
which it passes; as the Manchurian
route to V~ladivostok is $50 miles shorter
Il is quite certain to be regarded as the
preferable route for through traffic.
The world will congratulate Russia
upon the practical completion Of this
colossal undertaking. Ia labor alone It
has cost over sO.OOO.C1 days work.
Nearly twenty miles Of bridges nave been
thrown across numerous rivers. Over
sOo.OOO immigrants have been attracted
10 siberia because the railroad has
brought the hitherto inaccessible within
reach. Built a. a political and oommer-
cial necessity TO safeguard and develop
tie Russian Empire, the siberian railroad
IL also destined 10 he a large factor IN the
world and "a bind the Fast

ARIZONA'S PLEA FOR STATEHOOD.
Gov Murphy Urgently Recommends That
the Territory He Admitted rs o state.

WASHINGTON. Nov. lo.-N. o. Murphy.
the Governor OF Arizona. In his annual
report for tho fiscal year ending jun 80,
1901, urgently recommends that the Terri
tory he admitted into the Union az a State,
and says that while for more than a decade
there has been a uuanimity of sentiment
on the subject and the agitation to obtain
recognition has been continued before
Congress from year TO year, the people
OF the Territory were never before 50 gem
orally and earnestly aroused on the ques-
ton of Statehood. Gov. Murphy believes
that the prospects for success are better
now thar ever before and feels that the
earnest work OF years will tell. He says
the people of tho East have learned more
about the Territory during the last two
years thar in all its previous history and
that they ave become sufficiently in
formed concerning the citizenship, re-
sources and capabilities OF the people OF
Arizona to consent to their admission into
the I rion. He adds:
1T u contended thht If AT any time there
were reasons Of partisanship or exIe-
dicncy for our exclusion these reasons no
longer exist. And always II has been
urged very properly that under no cir
cumsiances should partisan considerations
prevent Justice, and II L. not believed that
broad-m minded statesmen will permit them
longer to have weight. Our people con-
slider that they are justified in demanding
admission Ola every ground Of right. The
showing a. to population. civilization.
wealth. education, Amcrloanism and re-
sourcrs, developed and undeveloped, consti-
tut.s an argument which Is unanswerable.
Despite the fact that the census figures
place the population 81 Arizona at l2e.2i2.
GOV Murphy says that the Territory has
a population Of 1856 600. He says that In

REVOLVING DINING TABLE.
Commissioner Procter's story Of . supper
In . Kentucky Mountain House.

WASHINGTON, Nov. i0.-Civil Service
Commissioner Proctor Is telling q new
story. 'When I was State Geologist for
Kentucky" he says, ian was travelling
In the mountains OF the eastern part Of
the State with n party Of prospectors from
New York. we stopped at a wayside noun
tain house late one evening. It was not
q specially inviting place. just the sort
where the family, yellow dog and Illicit
whiskey have a lively mix-up. but was
the only place in sight and we had to take

ment. and / wanted 90 make them COM
Portable over the uncomfortably rough
country, so l hailed the house owner and
exacted AL invitation TO alight. The family
and the house were types pure and simple.
and all the ecoentricities developed later.
when invited to supper, we observed
that In the middle Of the kitchen fioor sat
a large triple-decked circular aIair, or
the different decks Of which the food was
arranged. That part Of II was all right.
and the only fault that | had 70 find With
the thing on the outset was that tho standard

seeing myvis-a-vis. This objection, however,
sank into nothin gncss when my host ex-
claimed, Have Eaters, Mr.. Procter?' and
gave the table a whisk that sent il revolving
III its axis at q terrible rate, and made the
lnuch-at-home gentleman next to me,
who was calmly reaching for the generous
dish Of gravy OF the second deck, thrust
the dish vigorously into other passing
dishes. M ut the same time sent the gravy
shooting about in all directions. much to
the dctriment Of the cloth and some of our
coats.
This did not end the matter. Each
one Of these men, charmed with the novelty
Of the DEMONSTRATING merry-go-round,
reached out for a few OF the viands, sending
one dish OF top Of the other and making
a general salad Of the entire meal. The
children, who had stood at our elbows with
wide-open mouths at the start of the meal,
now shot of into the four corners, CON-
sternation written on their faces. while
our host reached out and. grasping an
edge of the revolving second deck. pretty
much as you would a buzz saw, exclaimed:

A GOOD word ron TIE CHINESE.
bishop Graves Says the Government. Not
the People. Is at Fault.

Al the annual missionary service in
Grace Church last Light Bishop Graves,
who is in charge of the Episcopal mission
work at Shanghai, China, delivered an
address He made a strong plea for the
Chinese people, pointing out their cHarac-
teristics and said that they We're not as
bad as We were inclined TO think, He
said that the Chinese people Us a whole
were kind to the missionaries and that
1t was the Government that stood in the
way. He explained tho Boxers hostility
10 foreigners as due 10 ignorance and said
that on this accoun they had been used as
instruments TO thwart tho progress of Chris
tian work. Bishop Grave said in part,
In many minds there Is a prejudice
against the Chinese people and missionary
work among them. but If YOU knew the Chi
nese people well that prejudice would leave
you. Kindness ia n prominent character
istic among them and one cannot he among
them long without finding out that their
present trouble Is due TO circumstances
for which they are not 20 blame.
TOO high a tribute cannot be paid 10
the power Of Chinese character. You
see It displayed in the way in which they
toll on and on. cheerful and happy, and
one cannot help feeling a most thorough
respect for them, The Government has,
on the other hand, thrown itself on the side
Of disorder and when the missionaries
were being moleeted the Chinese people
wished TO save and help them, but dared

ATTACK JAPANESE CABINET.
Marquis Ito's Followers Join the Opposi.
tl0n 5Sealers II.Treated by Russia.


VICTORIA. b. c.. Nov. IO.-The steamer
Victoria brings news that the political
situation is again becoming interesting in
Japan, for, according TO Japanese papers.
the followers of Marquis Ito have arrayed
themselves on the side Of the Cabinets
enemies. and 1t is proposed to arraign the
Cabinet on the ground that the measures
OF administration and financial reforms
contemplated by the Ministry are too
limited ard hat the failure TO sell bonds
IN America Is due TO misinanagcment and
that military discipline and Japan's reputa-
ton will be injured by the failure to punish
officers.
The question Of looting is looming up.
Many officers are said to have been i'm
plicated, and II Is said that hundreds Of rolls
OF precious silks and brocades found their
way to Japan in military baggage. One
General, whose debts were common talk
before he sailed for China, cleared up his
liabilities on his return. Even in the Wa
Department there is said to be some COM
motion.
The Japan Times reports that the Chi
nese cruisers Kienwei and Kienan, the
construction OF which Is about completed
at the Ma-Wei dockyard near Foo Chow,
will be sold 10 France. The Chinese Gov
ernment started work on these vessels or
the advice Of some Frenchmen and the
material was from France. Being unable
TO pay for the materials or 20 pay the salaries
of the French experts who aided in building
the vessels. permission was granted and
an arrangement for the purchase is being
made with France through tho French
Consul.
The Japanese ~sealers, ~forty-eight in num-
Der, who were seized with their ~schooners
for being within the prescribed limit of the
Copper Islands are being as cruelty treated
as were the Canadian sealers who fell into
the hands of the Russians several years
ago. They are held in n Russian prison
AT Vladivostock and escorted to n from
their trials by an armed escort OF troops.
In the prison the sealers. included among
whom are five Americans. complain OF
being robbed of all their belongings, even
TO their coats. and they were obliged to APP
pear in court in waistcoats trousers.
Complaint being made to the Judges. the
prison authorities were ordered to treat
them less cruelty,
