a good quantity daily for the

priSing, therefore, they should
cheer their favOrite orators to
the echo, for they are the ma
terial out of which Imperialism
has grown as Il bread and butter

new feature was introduced
when the claquers attempted to
hiss down Senator Carmack, of
Tennessee, who was arguing
from the strongest OF evidence
that the whitewashing witnesses

soldiers or civilians. We're not to
be relied on to tell the truth be-
cause these selected Witnesses
were under orders and have re-

know that promotion and ad

the WhitewaShing tales they

quite evident that when Ameri

packed lobby for exercising
their constitutional right Of free
that the virus of inn
perialism has been planted and
is ready to shout or cringe that
thrift might follow fawning.
However. while this kissing of
senators was going
on in the Senate chamber, it is
to read that President
of Cornell, the head
of the first Philippine commis-
sion and one of the best informed
men on Asiatic conditions in this
was addressing great

people of this country, imbued
as they are with the spirit OF

TALLY. There have been in
stances of mob violence in this
| State, it is true, where the lives
of persons actually guilty or
strongly suspected of crime have
been taken without opportunity
Of defending themselves through
tn" courts, and this condition Of
things will doubtless continue,
so long aS the mOnstrOuS crime
which is so summarily dealt
with as IL protection to society
continues to be perpetrated: nor
should the officers of the law be
held accounta BILE in such cases
unless grossly negligent in pro-
tecting the lives of those thus
placed in their custody
The fault lies not in the want
of desire by those charged with
the execution of the law to per
form their duty to the fullest eX-
tent. but to the law itself in not
providing proper means against
the recurrence of mob violence.
In my opinion. if the governor
could be clothed with power and
have good and sufficient reason
to suspect that mob violence will
be committed, to order forthwith
the removal of the prisoner to
the peniten tiary, to be there con
fined until his trial, and be given
the additional right to order
change of venue in such cases,
to such parish as he may deem
advisable, there would be Il
marked decrease in the number
of persons executed without au-
thOrity of law. 1t seems to me
that Legislation along these lines
should be taken, for mob viO-
lence should cease and the su-
premacy of the law be recognized
and enforced.

are by New York sculptors except one

Gen. Dodge. Senator Wetmore ana
Secretary Root selected an advisory
committee of generals, sculptors and
architects to assist them in determ'h-
ing the merits OF the models submit
ted. and there was a special advisory
committee composed of Gen. j. NJ.
Schofeld and Augustus st. Galdehs'
Several of the sculptors sought the
aid OF architects in formulating their
ideas of what the Grant statue should
he. and the models submitted by these
artists were made in conjunction WIN
the architects.
Mr. Shrady's composition is one OF
fierce movement and eager, stralhlhB
activity, presided over by the CAIN
%unrufled Grant. It comprises three
groups,
At one side there is a dash of cavalry
and at the other a battery of artillery

Grant sits firm and quiet astride a spir-
tied and alert horse, the figure of the
general the only quiet one IN the sur

went beyond its instruction In order
to have a word to say as to sites. The
committee said on this point:
1.-THE committee begs leave to sug-
gest that while the central site
namely the White Lots we'll adapt
ed for the purpose OF a monument to
Gen. Grant, the placing of any kind
of a monument in the White Lot
circle Is extremely Objectionable from
an artistic standpoint and is an en-
c%roachment upon historic ground. The
four corners Of the White Lot square
are deemed highly appropriate
places for subordinate military
monuments, but neither one is suited
in dignity for a site for a monument
to Gen. Grant"
1t is understood that the park COM
missions plan, which was preached
after the competition was instituted, Is
most likely to be carried out. The
Shrady composition, il was announc-
ed from Washington. was no only tho
first Of the models In intrinsic merit,
but also best adapted to this site. The
Niehaus model was pronounced sec
ond in intrinsic merit and adapted TO

Prince and Princess Henry Cycling on n
 Footpath Against the Law.

Berlin, April 7.-Prince and Princess Henry, who are visiting the Grand Duke of Hesse, have been doing a good deal of bicycling in the environs of Darmstadt, the capital of the duchy. While out bicycle riding last Friday with the grand duke on the Heidelberg road the prince, the princess and their host left the muddy wagonway for a footpath where the bicycling was cas- fer. Riding on this footway is forbid den by the police regulations. They had proceeded but short way when a policeman jumped out from hedge and shouted, Halt Dismount." The roy al party obeyed this command, and the grand duke was sharply questioned by the policeman, who held bulky note book in his hand. The duke, who is the reigning sovereign of the duchy, replied that he was the Grand Duke of Hesse and named his companions as Prince and Princess Henry of Prussia The policeman calmly requested details of the Identification. When all three mem- bers of the party had answered him ga satisfactorily he permitted them to pro- ceed. saving that, according to the reg ulations. he would report the matter at headquarters.
 It is likely that the usual fine of seven marks will be collected from the royal bcyclers.

South Norwalk, April 7-Committee
 man George w. Stevens of the South
 Five Mile River school district, to- day
 received a letter from former principal George w. Mcclellan, which clears up the mystery of the anonymous letter writing affair in this place. Mir Me Clellan, in his letter, says that in order to do justice to all he has decided to make public the facts in the case as they were found by his lawyer, Mir Vosburgh, and himself. MT. Mcclellan upon the advice of his counsel sent samples of the handwriting of his wife and Miss Elizabeth A. Erwin to William J. Kingsley, hand writing expert in New York, who, after an examination said that the letters were undoubtedly written by Mrs Mcclellan After this informatio was received, says Mir Me Clellan, he made overtures to Miss Err win, and feels sure that had the young lady known the true condition of af- fairs much of the trouble which follow ed would have been avoided Mrs. Me Clellan has since been examined by three specialists and it has been found that she has been suffering from de rangement, and has been for a consid- erable period.
