"He appeared very little disturbed.

THESE MEN WON'T TREAT.
They Belong to the "FIying Squadron

A new antitrust society has been
launched. 1t is called the Flying
Squadron, and every member. from
Admiral to stoker, is a good fellow,
who has taken an oath to "set 'em up

Flying Squadron" is a national anti

is supposed to carry a pocketful OF
anchors to distribute among the sea
going boats when they get into West
ern waters.
All the officers and members of the
crew Of the Flying Squadron" have
"cut out" the habit of paying for 9TH
er peoples refreshments. But this
reformation has not made the dry
docks altogether useless, for every
time one commodore buys drink
every other member present must also
buy himself one. This results in fire.

1t is regarded sin for any member
to refer to the water cart" and any
member who offers to treat brother
is banished for time to lonesome
place known as Setter island
The Flying Squadron was launcil
ed by group of good fellows in the
East Ships that Pass in the Night,
they call themselves. The society now
numbers nearly 1000 members, and
one OF the largest and most flourish
ing navy yards is located in Chicago.

THE ROYALTY SCANDAL.
Sensational Charges Made Against
Princess Louise's Ex-Husband.

Vienna, Feb. %. Sensational
charges against Prince Philip of SAKE
Coburg- Gotha, who is an Austrian
field marshal and husband of the
Princess Louise of Belgium, were
made yesterday in the reichsrath in
the debate on the army bill by Herr
Dascynski, the Polish leader. The lat
ter denounced the prince as a Grim
inal. Referring to the Imprisonment
of the former lieutenant of hussars,
Mattasich, who eloped with the
Princess Louise OF Coburg several
years ago and who was sentenced to
four years Imprisonment last De-
cember for forgery, he asserted that
while in prison Mattasich drew UP
formal accusation charging Prince
Philip with forcing the Princess
Louise, VINO was confined in an
asylum for the insane near Dresden
some time after her elopement, to enl
courage the advances OF the late Bar
on Hirsch and with compelling her to
ask the baron for money.

. Caracas, Feb. 20. - The American
consul at Maracaibo has notified the
American legation here that the Ger
man cruiser Panther one of the YES
sells that took part in the Smelling Of
Fort San Carlos, near Maracaibo, ar
rived near Fort San Carlos yesterday
morning and requested free pratique
to enter Lake Maracaibo and reach
the city.
The commander of the fort refused
for the time being to give the Panther
the desired permission, declaring that
orders from President Castro were
necessary before the warship could be
allowed to go to MaracaibO.
Disapproval of the action Of the
German navy is expressed in foreign
circles here, and it is declared that
the Germans are hunting for more
trouble.

Porto Cabello, Feb. 2O.-The officers
of the German cruiser Vineta yester-
day came on shore and drove all over
the town. They then went up to Fort
Solana, which was shelled by them on
Dec. Is, and asked to be allowed to
visit the interior. The officer in COM
mand of the fort received them pOlEe-
~, but he informed them that to visit
the fort an order from President Cas-
tro was necessary. The German Off
GERS went away laughing.
Bowen Cannot Go.
Washington, Feb. 20. - 1t does not
seem at all probable at this time that
Minister Bowen will go to The Hague
in connection with the movement to
have that tribunal determine whether
or not the European allied powers
which maintained a blockade Of Ven
ezuelan ports shall have preferential
treatment in the payment of Ihe
claims of their citizens against Ven
ezuela. II Mr.. Bowen's pleasure in
the matter were consulted the likeli-
hood is that he would participate in
the proceedings before The Hague
tribunal, but he is not willing to re-
sign his position as minister to Ven
ezuela for that purpose, and the rules
of the state department prohibit the
granting of more than sixty days
leave of absence in any one year to
diplomatic officers The impression
also obtains that the state department
is not over-anxious for Mr. Bowen to
attend, as his presence at The Hague
might cause belief that the United
States is over-zealous in behalf OF
Venezuela.

QUAY lads IN A fIliBUsItR
CANAL TREATY MUST TAKE SEC.
oND PLACE TO STATE.
HOOD BILL.
WILL FORCE AN EXTRA SESSION
MOST SERIOUS FRICTION IN Pc.
PUBLICAN RANKS FOR
YEARS.

Washington, Feb. 22.-The contest
in the senate has developed more
serious element OF friction in the Re-
publican ranks than has been known
for years.
The question at issue is whether the
majority party shall exercise the pow.
er to legislate or that power shall
pass to combinations of minorities
without party responsibility.
The Republican senate caucus on
Tuesday decided that the Panama
canal treaty should be the order OF
business before the senate until it is
ratified. The caucus in effect dis
placed the statehood bill with the
canal treaty. At that time Senator
Morgan was the only known filibus-
terer against the treaty. But Mr.. Nor
gan's opposition has become
Only an Incident
in the contest as it has developed in
the last two days. Mr.. Quay is now
the leader of the filibusters against
the treaty. He led in the filibustering
Thursday and again yesterday. His
purpose is declared to be that the
treaty shall take second place to the
statehood bill. He insists that the
statehood bill is of first importance
and that the canal treaty shall not be
ratified until there is an agreement for
q vote on statehood.
The majority OF the republicans are
determined to follow the caucus agree
ment and continue the executive ses-
sions until the treaty is ratified or the
end of the session is reached.
Quay's friends say that he was
tricked into agreeing to go into ex-
ecutive session. and that he is ready
to allow appropriation bills to be
passed, but not the treaty. They
therefore claim that the
Responsibility for Failure
Of appropriation bills, if the deadlock
continues. will rest on the opponents
of statehood and the managers Of the
treaty who insist on continuing the
executive session begun Thursday
morning. This is where Mr.. Quay has
been outgeneraled. He consented to
the executive session to take up the
treaty, and the executive session still
continues with recesses from day to
day. The issue is regarded as very
grave one.
It is whether Mr.. Quay is more
powerful than the Republican party.
He has formed a new alliance, regard
less of party lines, and he is using that
alliance to dictate to congress. He
threatens to make necessary an extra
session unless his minority of Demo
Gratis and Republicans is allowed to
dictate.
The senate spent the entire, day in
executive session considering the Pan
ANA canal treaty, and at 5:25 p. m.
took recess until to-day.

Football ia Janan.

Among the many things that Japan
borrowed from China was football. :.
said to have been introduced as early.
as the middle of the seventh century,
The Emperor Tobal IL was al expert
player and got up club at his. pal
ace. Considering how ayerse most
Crientals are to hard work and Wig
orous exercise. it may be supposed
that the game was very different from
ours. Nevertheless the Japanese form
seems to have been popular, and we
may trace the beginning of profess
sionalism to an emperor and his
court, of whom it is told that in a,
time of poverty they earned a little
extra money by teaching the art Of
football.
