Is the Sassenach Trying to Get Even
After Six Hundred Years?
The Highlanders gathered in great
force in the House of Commons at
question time recently. Four notices
were on the paper relating to the al
legged order to substitute the trews for
the kilt in the Highland regiments,
and when Col. Denny of Kilmarnock
defiantly arose to interrogate the secre-
.tary of war cheer went up from the
Gaels ON both sides of the chamber.
The Saxon minister, with hated breath,
replied that the Highland regiments
would retain the kilt for full dress,
and that instructions would be issued
to provide them with kits of khaki or
some other invisible color, when on
active service, as is done in South Al
RIGA
Then UP rose William Allan, a yer
liable Lion of the North. With q
shake of his massive head and flowing
beard he cried across the floor in fierce
and dramatic tones: as it the inten-
ton of the war office that the distine-
tive tartans of the kilt are to be abol-
fshed in the Highland regiments, and
is this being done by the war Office
in revenge for Bannockburn?'
The sudden and gusty outburst of
the indignant Scot was too much for
the house When the roars of laughter
and ironfca1 cheers which followed had
subsidized, Mr. Broderiek sought to turn
away the wrath of the honorable mem
Der by assuring him that Of course the
distinctive tartans wonld be preserved

ried out in the basilica of St. Peter S

and i'll the presence of the pontiff and

bered fully $4,000 persons.
The chapel was held in the basilica

HITS THREE-CENT FARES
SUPREME COURT SAYS CITY OF DE-
TROIT CANNOT ENJOY THEM.
Council Has No Right 10 Reduce
Fares without Consent OF
Street Car Conn
pnny.

WASHINGTON, March BIN a decision
renoered in the United States supreme
court today it was held that the ordi-
nance enacted by the city government of
Detroit, Mich, arbitrarily reducing street
car fares to 3 cents was irregular and
without binding effect.
This decision was based upon the fact
that previous ordinances had been passed
fixing the street car fares at 5 cents.
The original ordinances are construed by
the court to be in the nature of con-
tracts.
The decision was rendered by Justice
Peckham and affirmed the opinion of the
of Michigan.
In passing on the question of control,
Justice Pec<ham, who delivered the opin-
ion of the court, said:
The rate of fare having been fixed
by positive agreement, under the ex-
pressed legislative authority, the sub. ect
is not open to alteration thereafter by
the common council alone, under the
rights to prescribe from time to time the
rules and regulations for the running
and operation Of the read. Nor does
the language Of the ordinance which pro-
vides that the rate Of fare for one pas
sengor shall not be more than cents
give any right TO the city to reduce it
below the rate of cents established by
the company. 1t is a contract which
gives the company the right to charge a
rate of fare up to the sum of cents
for a single passenger and leaves no
power to the city to reduce it without
the consent of the company"

MANILA March 3.-Twenty-five mem

miles from Manila, encountered eighty
well-armed insurgents today. The former
fled, after expanding all their ammuni-

were killed or captured. The same band
of insurgents turned back a commissary
wagon, but did not modest the escort Of
three men.
Gov. Flores, of the province of Rial,

Gently captured Ampil, the president of

matter.

officials have been notified OF the arrival

other places. They are we'll armed and
are sewing under .Capile. An extra force
of constabulary will endeavor to handle
the malcontents.
Gen. Lukban has offered to assist in

seemed to shake the very roof itself, the
entire audience followed the orchestra,
with the words of the song.
It was shortly after 10 O'Clock when the
prince and the members Of his suite arose
from their seats and escorted by the
members Of the committee left the ball
cony for their carriages. NOtwithstand-

numbering at least $4,000 people, was still

pearance of the prince was greeted with
the same cheers that had marked his ar

fought six rounds to a draw tonight at

during the last round and Referee Ho-

first round with several stiff lefts to

was slow in getting down to business
and the round ended in favor of Yanger.

by a left hook. He was up in an instant

neither man was punished to any great
extent. Broad got down to work in the
next round, and after reaching Yanger
with few stiff lefts, the latter began to
hang on in the cllnches.
Broad scored several times without a.
return and had the best Of a hot rally at
the close of the round. Broad landed so
often in the last round that Yanger was
kept busy clinching in order to escape de-
feat. Broad tried hard to get in a knock

for Mutual Esteem.

BERLIN, March BIN the reichstag

TO the visit of Prince Henry to the United
States, said he was glad to see it had
frustrated the designs of Great Britain
against German-American understand
ing.
Herr Gradnauer Social Democracy rid
1culed the idea of any advantage arising
from Prince Henrys visit. He said it
was very ingenious to expect any i'm
proVement in the relations between Ger
many and the United States to result
from such a journey
Replying to Herr Gradnauer Count Won
Buelow said he deeply regretted the re-
marks of the last speaker, especially in
view of the splendid welcome that Prince
Henry was receiving from the American
people. This remark of Count Won Bue-
low was greeted with applause from all
sections of the house.
Continuing, the imperial chancellor
said that the journey of the emperor 8
brother had no political object, save the
natural one Of upholding the traditional
good relations between Prussia, Germany
and the United States, which had existed
s. since the days of the great Frederick
and the great Washington.
Both nations said Count Won Buelow,
have every reason for mutual esteem
They have no occasion whatever, to be-
smirch one another or dispute with one
another. They have every interest for
living in peace and friendship, based
upon complete reciprocity, even in the
most remote future. My eyes perceive
no point where the political ways of the
German and American people cross. I
made this statement in this house some
three years ago 1 was then under the
Impression that 1 was in sympathy with
the great majority of this house Of
this l am now convinced. I am not say
ing this for Germany alone, but also for
abroad. I am further convinced that I
also agree with the great majority of
this house, when 1 recognize that the
German people have viewed with lively
satisfaction the hospitable, chivalrous
and brilliant reception which the Ameri-
can nation has accorded the brother OF
the German emperor"
The imperial chancellor concluded his
remarks amid the applause Of the house.
Count Won BueloW also assured the
reichstag in a somewhat lengthy speech
that there was not the slightest likeE.
hood nor desirability of Germany taking
any steps to interfere in the course of af-
fairs in South Africa. Such a course.
said the speaker was not in accord with
German interests and policy.
