Dresden, Saxony, Feb. 4.-Detectives
are watching every train for the south
for the ex-Crown Princess Louise, who,
it is feared, may return to see her son,
the little Prince Christian, who is dan

it is not unlikely that she may come
here to see her child at all risks. 1t is
understood that the detectives have
been instructed to detain her if she

ed here from Mentone indicate that the
princess and Professor Giron left that
place in great haste. Their rooms were
found to be in disorder, and they went
away without part of their baggage.

Rush orders have been received from
Washington ordering that all work now

their way to Amapala, port on the
Pacific coast of Honduras, early next

FRENCH OPPOSITION.
Allies Plan said TO Give Them SIX
Years Priarity,

Paris, Feb. 4.--Opinion in official cir
cles here strongly opposes the latest
position taken up by the allies as out
lined here, which, in effect it is said,
gives them six years priority. There
is reason to believe that France has ex-
pressed disapproval of the plan. One
of the chief grounds for this disapprov-
al is that such six years priority. which
is the term mentioned here, is regarded
as virtually establishing new triple
alliance between Great Britain, Ger
many and Italy toward South American
affairs for six years. (This is one Of
the contention of Mr.. Bowen) Such a
long-continued cooperation of the
three European powers in South Amer
lea is considered here as introducing
broad political factor more important
than the financial amounts involved.

The sounding of the alarm Of fire for

said last evening, that on the children's
return to the school as they were all
about a minute late. Principal Sher-
man S. Graves reduced them all a

the school for all Of them unless re-

CASsINI,s DENIAL.

1t is hardly probable that Count Cas-
SIM. the Russian ambassador, in the
interview with the Associated Press in
Paris on Monday, meant to be under
stood that no agreement had been
reached that a number of Manchurlan
ports should be opened, and yet II he
did not mean that it is difficult to UNI
derstand what he did mean. 1t isn't
possible that Secretary Hay misunder-
stood him in that conversation he had
with him just before the latter left
Washington on his way to Europe.
1t will be recalled that immediately
after that visit Secretary Hay visited
several of the other members of the
cabinet and told them that the effort
he had been making for so long time
to have additional ports of Manchuria
opened to the commerce of the world
had been finally successful. He was
much elated, because he believed that
the opening of Manchuria to commerce
would be of vast benefit to this coun-
try, particularly to the Southern states.
AS is well known the cotton mills of
the South send vast quantities of cot
ton goods to China. 1t may be, as sug
gested in a Washington dispatch, that
Count Cassini meant that nothing had
been arranged as to the ports to be
opened-that is. no ports had been
named. But il he meant that why did
he not say so? No one understands
49, zee or5 ,,,aa,oiDU IF xvardc hefter
than he does.
1t would be. a great disappointment
to Secretary Hay if it should turn out
that he did not clearly understand
Count Cassini; that the latter had no
intention of saying that Russia would
keep her agreement respecting the
opening of Manchurisn ports
1t is not probable, however, that he
could have been mistaken. He is too
clear-headed a man to make such a
mistake as that. Russia may have
changed her policy after the Kishineff
petition was out of the way, and is go
ing to take the position now that the
time has not yet come for opening
more Manchurian ports.
Ii is not reasonable, however, to sup
pose that she would do anything of
that kind 1t is reasonable to suppose
that Count Cassini in his interview
meant that the ports had not yet been
named. 1t is regrettable that diplo-
mats, who know how to express them
selves clearly, so often state what they
have to say in a way which confuses
the public.

BETTER LET THE LAW ALONE.

1t was intimated in a newspaper of
Atlanta, if we are not mistaken, that
one of the reasons why the bill maxi
ing railroad commissioners elective
passed the House so promptly and by
so large a majority was the refusal
of the commission to respond favor
ably to a demand for lower rates on
one of the railroads. We do not know
whether or not there was foundation
for such an intimation. Cases are
coming before the commission all the
time in which there is a difference be-
tween shippers and railroads, and it
is impossible for the commission to
satisfy both parties.
Naturally the railroads seek to get
as high rates as they can and on the
other hand shippers seek to have the
rates made as low as possible. 1t is not
a question with shippers as to wheth-
er or not with lower rates the roads
can meet their obligations and make
something for their stockholders. 1t
will be admitted by all fair-minded
men that the rates ought to be as
near just as they can be made. In
making them the interests of the roads
and those of the people ought to be
taken into consideration. Nothing in
SO important matter ought to be
done arbitrarily.
When the Legislature created the
commission 1t no doubt considered
