relating to the population and ascertain as
far possible such matters as are taken

HOW JEWS ARE TREATED
ANCIENT LAW THAT Is ENFORCED
BY ROUMANIAN COURTS.
Hebrews Compelled to Take Oaths
Lying in an Open Coffin and Clad
i'm Grave Clothes.

VIENNA, Sept. IA dispatch to the
Poster Lloyd from Bucharest, Roumania,
calls attention to an old law by which
Jew may be compelled by the Roumanian
courts of law to take oath in shame
full and medieval manner. The Jew is
placed in an open coffin in the synagogue,
clad in his grave clothes, and is forced to
repeat the curse and maledictions uttered
by the rabbi upon him and every member
of his family if he fails to tell the truth.
All agitation TO get this law repealed, says
the dispatch. has been futile, and, although
it has fallen into desuetude, it may still be
invoked If the Christian party in a lawsuit
demands it and the judge consents.

Archbishop Guidi May Not Provide
for Their Removal.

ROME, Sept. 26.-The publication of a
pontifcal bull on the apostolic constitution
Of the Philippines is imminent. 1t will indi-
cate the general objects and aims of Arch
bishop Guidfs mission to Manila. The
apostolic delegate will have to reorganze
the whole ecclesiastical hierarchy of the
archipelago, will create three new dioceses
and will propose prelates for the arch
bishropric of Manila and the remaining
bishroprics, after which he will convoke
synod to establish rules for governing &C.
clesiastical affairs in harmony with the
customs of the islands, as is done in South
America.
Archbishop Guidi is animated by the most
liberal ideas regarding the settlement of
the Philippine questions. In his letter to
Governor Taft he said he was glad he had
been chosen to cooperate with him in the
pacification of the islands and hoped to be
able to count on his assistance. One of the
first projects of the archbishop is the es-
Establishment at Manila of two seminaries
to educate the native clergy which are
destined ultimately to replace the foreign
ers. These seminaries will be intrusted to
a religious order which has not hitherto
been represented in the archipelago A
portion of the students of the seminares
will be. sent to Rome to complete their ed
ucation either at the North American or
South American colleges in a special
Filipino college IL it is found practicable
to establish the latter.
The questions regarding the friars which
were the subject of negotiations between
the Vatican and Governor Taft might it is
suggested, be solved without recourse to
the recall of the friars by Opening the
doors in the Philippines to all the clergy
of all the religious orders without distinc-
ton. of nationality, thus quickly over
shadowing the few hundreds of Spanish
friars remaining there"
The reorganization of the church in the
Philippines on new basis will be carried
out with funds from the sale of the agri-
cultural lands belonging to the friars and
from the indemnity which the United
States will pay for war damages. The idea
of having recourse to arbitrators in order
to determine the amounts of these funds
has been dropped and it is suggested that
the clergy submit estimates, which, unless
Immediately acceptable to the Philippine
and American governments, shall form a
basis for negotiations between Governor
Taft and Archbishop Guidi. 1t is proposed
that the friars shall sell their shares of the
lands possessed by the corporal atoms and
that the payment be in Mexican dollars
the first installment to be paid when the
title deeds to the Philippines ecclesiastical
establishments are transferred. 1t is also
proposed that disputes regarding charitable
or educational trusts be amicably settled
by Archbishop Guidi and Governor Taft.

SALOONS NEAR ARMY POSTS
RESPONSIBLE FOR DEsERTIONs AND
NUMEROUS OFFENsES.
Proprietors of the Resorts Denounced
rs Unprincipled Scoundrels Who
Debauch Soldiers.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Establishment of
the army canteen is responsible for de
plorable increase Of offenses in general and
assertions in particular" according to the
annual report OF Brigadier General Freder-
lex Funston. Department of the Colorado.
General Funston declares that the ousting
of the canteen by act Of Congress has
lowered the discipline of the army, ruined
scores of good soldiers and enriched sa-
loon Keepers. gamblers and dissolute wom-
en-. He explains the deterioration as fol-
lows:
I'm my opinion there are two principal
causes for this state OF affairs: First. re-
sentiment of unaccustomed limitations and
restrictions felt by men returning from
field service to the monotony and routine
work OF garrison life; second. the aboIi-
ton OF the canteen feature of the post
exchange. Since this action was taken sa-
looms of the lowest type have been estab-
lished just outside the boundaries of the
various reservations; their proprietors in
almost every case, unprincipled scoundrels
who leave nothing undOne to debauch the
soldiers and obtain their money. Being in
all cases outside the limits OF any city, the
proprietors OF these resorts are subject to
no municipal police regulations and sell
liquor regardless of hours and whether the
buyer Is already intoxicated or not.
Gambling Is universal in these dives.
and they are frequented by dissolute wom-
en-. The soldier whose desire for a drink
would ordinarily be satisfied by a few
glasses of beer IN the canteen of the post
exchange goes TO one of these resorts and
does well IL he escapes before he has spent
or gambled away all his money. overstayed
his leave or engaged in an alteration. AS
a rule the local authorities regard the ex-
istence OF these places with indifference or
approval, as 10 causes the soldier TO spend
Sis money In the community. The efficiency
OF the army or the ruin of good soldier
Is nothing 90 them. There can be no rea-
sonable doubt that most of the trials by
general coUrts-martial and summary courts,
at least so far as this department is con-
cerned. are directly traceable to this cause.
Since / have had command here there has
taken place the ruin and degradation OF
several noncommissioned officers of long
service and fine record In short. the re-
cent legislation by Congress on this ques-
ton. so far as this department Is concerned
has had no effect except TO lower the dis
cipline OF the army, ruin scores OF good
soldiers and I'LL the pockets of a lot OF sa-
loon keepers. gamblers and prostitutes"

WITHIN TREATY RIGHTS.
United States Properly Guarding the
Panama Railway.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-In regard to
the protest against the landing of Ameri-
can marines on the isthmus made to Com
mander Mclean, of the Cincinnati. by Gov
ernor Salazar, of Panama, on the ground
that the Colombian government has ample
force to protect the lives and property of
foreigners, it is pointed out here that the
Governors argument takes in only one
half of the main treaty obligation with re-
gard to the isthmus. assumed in the con-
vention of New Granada, signed i'm 1916 by
the United States and Colombia. The
dominant factor which Influenced the
landing of the marines was the obligation
which the United States took upon itself
by the treaty of 1876 in these words: 1.-The
United States guarantees positively and
efficaciously to New Granada by the pres
ent stipulation the perfect neutrality of
the aforementioned isthmus with the
view that the free transit from the one TO
the other may not be interrupted or
embarrassed in any future while this treaty
exists.
Furthermore, in respect to the Governors
reported declaration that he considered the
landing of the United States naval force an
attempt to assume the sovereignty of
Colombia, attention is directed to this
declaration in the same paragraph of the
treaty: THE United States also guar
antees the rights of sovereignty and
property which New Granada has and
possesses over the said territory" So far
neither the State Department nor the
Navy Department has been officially in
formed of the protest of the Panama Gov
ernor 1t was stated at the Navy Depart
ment that no mention of the protest was
made in the long dispatch received from
Commander Mclean yesterday, in regard
to which only a general statement was
made public.
Mr. Concha, the Colombian minister. re-
ceived a cablegram to-day from Governor
SalaZar, of Panama, reciting the fact that
he had lodged a protest with Commander
Mclean regarding the landing of the
marines, the Governor regarding Com
mander McLean's action having the APP
peardnce or an attempt to exercise acts OF
sovereignty in Colombian territory. The
legation officials have not been advised
the United States naval forces for assist
ance in keeping open the railroad transit
or whether this was taken on Commander
McLeans own initiative. They are inclined
to think IL was not altogether the act OF
landing the marines that has met with the
protest and criticism. but rather the man
ner in which the authority has been exer-
cised, particularly in the disarmament of
veteran soldiers of Colombia before per-
hitting their transit over the railroad
The Navy Department to-day gave out
the following statement in relation to a
cablegram received from Commander Nc
Lean: Commander Mclean cables that
for the present situation the United States
forces now on the isthmus will be sufficient
Accordingly no more need be sent unless
some unforeseen contingency should arise
1t is thought the marine battalion being
assembled at Norfolk probably will not
have to be sent 10 the isthmus."

Accused of Imperialism.

BUENOS AYREs. Sept. 2s.-The Prinsa
Press, daily paper of this city. publishes
to-day very violent article calling atten-
ton to the alleged tendency of the United
States towards Imperialism, which. II says
is illustrated by the landing OF American
marines in Colombia and protests energet-
ically against IL. The paper says the
United States does not exercise any politi-
cal protection over South America, which
will never accept European or North Amer
lean Intervention in it's affairs. The Prinsa
concludes with saying that the Argentine
government should make an inquiry into
the matter and find out the real character
of the aims of the United States 10
inaugurate diplomatic movement and pre-
pare for defense and destroy the idea OF
the possibility of any Intervention.

BERLIN, Sept 26.-The New York money
market is watched here with the closest
attention. DR.. Koch, president of the
Reichsbank, referred to the money situa-
ton i'm New York at the monthly sitting
to-day of the central committee of the
bank. He said the situation there was not
exactly clear, but that up to the present
time it had not affected the German or
other European markets. The fact that the
Bank of England was not afraid of the
American stringency, and even If the Bank
of England did raise its rates, said Presi-
dent Koch, similar action in Berlin need
not Immediately be expected. Although the
demands for the closing quarter are heavier
than usual, still the Re.chsbank's status is
so strong that it will be able to meet the
requirements at the existing rates. Presi-
dent Koch said the banks recent slight
loss of gold had been occasioned by the
domestic demand, and that gold exports in
the immediate future were not appre-
hended.
1t is understood that German banks are
still placing funds at the disposal of their
New York agents, and the aggregate of
these loans a week ago was estimated by
a representative of the Deutsche Bank at
$50 100000 and the total of European money
In Wall street at about $200,000000.
