when the habeas corpus proceedings were
instituted. The case will now be carried to
the United States Supreme Court before the
extradition is executed. Carl Pollier, the
German consul in Cincinnati, has been the
prosecuting witness, and eminent counsel
has been engaged on both sides.

charged with forgeries aggregating several
hundred thousand marks In connection with

merly conducted in Bavaria.

NO COLLISION in CASE
DENIAL OF A REPORT CONCERNING
THE FAVERSHAM DIVORCE.
Actor and Actress Happy Because
Their Marital Bonds Were Severed
Letter and Interview.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-Counsel for both
plaintiff and defendant in the divorce suit
of Actor William Faversham Indignantly
deny that the decree in the case was OBJ
tanned by COLLISION, as indicated by a letter
and interview said to have been written
by Faversham. The letter in question was
written to the New York Herald and read
as follows:
After reading the New York newspapers
Of March 20 in reference to my divorce l feel
that L owe il to my friends to send you the
inclosed interview and add to it here. My
divorce is no more mysterious than others
that the papers have handled lately. 1t
was arranged between Marian Faversham
and her advisors and myself that l should
give some grounds. l arranged 1.-THE poor,
mythical correspondents name shall be told
when L come TO New York-an the details
for the terms of the divorce | practically
arranged myself. So all these stupid stories
and insinuations from certain newspapers
are of their own manufacture. L shall
thank the Herald for a correct version of
my part of the affair.
WILLIAM FAvERsHAM.
"Pittsburg, Pa, March &C."
The ''interview'' inclosed was as follows:
eff the divorce has been granted, then 1
am very happy and l feel sure that Marion
Faversham is also happy on account of be-
ing able TO obtain the divorce so easily and
without any contest, publicity or expense.
1t was a matter of life and death to both
of us that this divorce should take place.
Our marital secrets we do not care to dis
cuss. / would like to say how much 1
thank the newspapers for the consideration
shown TO both parties after the affair came
10 their notice, and the really clever and
dignified way some of the Eastern papers
nave handled it. l feel that, had the edi-
tors been handling such a case involving
their own family or parents, they would
not have shown more consideration than
they have shown Marion Faversham and
me. Imprimature."
A. H. Hummel, counsel for Mrs. Faver-
sham, and former Judge Charles Dona-
hue, attorney for Mr.. F~aversham, to-day

authorship Of the letter. He did say that

JAMES ON COEDUCATION.
President of Northwestern University
Discusses an Important Question.

CHICAGO, March 2S.-Dr. Edmund James,
president-elect of the Northwestern Uni
versity. presented his first communication
to the board of trustees to-day. On the
subject of coeducation he said in part:
There are many signs of a marked re
action in the public mind on the subject of
coeducation. Friends of the movement may
well view it with some concern. The tide
seems in certain ways to have ebbed. A
pronounced reaction has set in. Not only
has the system ceased to make new on
verts, but there are indications that it is
losing ground in the very territory which
it had so completely won. A new period
of questioning is upon us. a sort Of vague
prejudice has arisen in the country at large
which indicates a new attitude of the pub
lie mind toward the whole problem. The
system is attacked on new grounds and
from new points of view.
1--WE are, moreover. not left to merely
theoretical criticism and vague suggestion
as TO what the public sentiment is on the
subject. This is evidenced in certain quar-
ters by some very interesting external
signs. The distinct alteration in the atti-
tude of a number of Institutions toward the
subject is indicated by their policy. The
rapid growth of attendance at the women's
colleges during the past few years is also
a very significant fact.
"An these things and many others of
like kind point TO a serious crisis in the
history of this movement, and it behooves
those who believe in coeducation to study
the system with all seriousness. The
grounds of discussion have changed entire
~ in the last generation. The old objec-
lions have lost their force and entirely
new ones are now TO the front. The notion
that women are inca pable of doing college
work so commonly urged a generation ago
has completely disappeared. The objection
that young men and women cannot be
trusted to observe proper relations in their
social intercourse has lost it's force in view
of the plain fact that the moral tone OF
coeducational institutions is distinctly
higher tina that of the community at
large and is certainly not inferior to that
of schools for one sex alone.
but, on the other hand, one hears Oft
ener the claims that the increasing num-
Der of women tends to feminine the insti-
tutiOns where hey are, in some cases TO
such an extent as TO discourage the attend
ance of men. 1t is urged with increasing
persistence that the social distractions and
designations with their widening invasion
of the serious purpose that should go with
school life for a very serious problem;
while others emphasize the fact that the
broad difference in the future careers of
the two sexes should find a more adequate
recognition in the college curricula."

NEW METHOD OF HAZING.
Missouri University Girl students
Made to Show Their Feet.

COLUMBIA, Mo, March 2s.-For hating
young women on the campus and examin-
ing their feet nine students of Missouri
University have been dismissed and the
names of others are being secured with a
view to similar punishment.
The girls were on their way to a banquet
in the Academic Hall given by the fresh
men. The building was surrounded by a
mob of the unlimited students, bent on
kidnapping as many of the male guests as
possible. A number Of the latter disguised
themselves as girls in order to pass
through the line. One young man, thus at
tired, was identified as he stepped into the
light of the main entrance. The mob tore
his silk dress to tatters and dragged him
away. After this the besiegers were sus-
picious and as the guests approached those
who were girls, or appeared To be, were
halted and made to thrust forward their
feet for examination. Nearly all submitted
to the ordeal with surprising good nature.
