DIPLOMACY STRIPPED OF FoLDERoL.

The American press and the telegraph cooperating
with Yankee and the influence of American
wives upon foreign ambassadors have robbed diplomacy
OF all its pristine mystery and romance its evasion and
delay its circumlocuton and ceremonial and
placed it of sudden OH practical and busness-like
basis.
Such prompt vigorous, brusque and busness-like
people the present foreign ministers in Washington
before known the diplomatic world. The
British German French, and Italian ministers,
pear Yankeefed They actually do things They
get around at business hours They get action They
teegraphs and phones. They wire their
communications the home governments and get back
promptly if two business houses
making deal Their language has become simple, intel
lgibe and to the point. They size each other up
plain men, and talk like They have been trans
formed into creatures of human blood and bone, with
human faults and frailties, and of the grandiose
gamor that formerly concealed the person and dongs
of minister plenipotentary envoy extraordinary
For in the history of the world the people know
daily what is going in the diplomatic circle and have
intelligent idea of the issues All of which whole
and refreshing.
Minister Bowen's Eghtnng-like understanding of
the situation and his bun-spoken and direct methods
of getting the kernel of point in dispute have aided
materially in bringing diplomacy down to "brass tacks
in the present emergency His plain statement in the
British note that alliances not wanted this sde
and that what America wanted peace and settle
ment by arbitration instead of the perpetuation of
alliances, bombshel which preciptated protocols
and appeal to The Hague tribunal in rush.
Equally vigorous and to the point his retort to
the petty bluff of the German government for the adj
payment of $4,000 after that proposition had
already been given up the signed agreement of the
German representative To make his point plain, Min
lister Bowen told the German government that if it
would make public confession that it does stand by
its agreements signed by its duly accredited diplomats
he would raise and pay the $4,000. This bold and
pointed ntimation will doubtless suffice to bring the
emperors diplomats, with their high preensions of
emona honor to the scratch and stop their
The high -mightiness that doth hedge king has
its parallel in the folderol and hypocrisy that doth e
velop and befuddle imperial diplomat We have help

world lots of good

light, just as the wonderful harmonies
are an intellectual joy.
The orchestration is considerably
broken. Much WOrk>is allotted the
flutes, which seem to voice better than
anything else the note of pure, exul-
tant faith. The violins are the choir
OF mourners, the viola and the 'cellos
providing the more somber note of
grlefS abandonment. DAMS orches-
ira, directed by Frank DAM Jr., did
excellent work last night. The Or
chestra was augmented by some of the
best solo players in st. Paul.
The Requiem" begins with the re-
QUEEN and kyrie. Then follows in
order the Dies Irae, which seems to
breathe all the sternness of the Mosaic
law; the Domino Jesu, Sanctus, Agnus
Del, Lux Aeterna and the concluding
Liberia Me, which has a wonderfully
beautiful finale.
Mrs. Shannah Cumming, who sang
the soprano soil last night, is an ar
fist as well as the pOsSessor of a
beautiful voice. Her brief recitatives,
one pfanisSimo, and her arias in the
Liberia Me, with the beautiful accom-
paniment of strings was one of the
exquisite bits of the Requiem" Mrs.
Cummings voice has a wide range, the
tones ring clear as a bell and the
quality is delightful. In her duet with
Miss Hopkins in the "Agnus Der the
beauty of her voice was especially no.
ticeable.
DR.. Carl E. buffet, basso, sang last
night some of the most effective mu-
sic in the Requiem" His sonor-
Gus, colOrful bass, as we'll as his nice
sense Of dramatic values, made From
the accursed and rejected" unusually
impressive.
Miss Jessie Lynd-Hopkins, alto, and
John B. Miller, tenor, were both sat
iCfl 0tO1 lost sr'a4
ing of neither was remarkable.
Miss Hopkins, like SO many other
contraltos, is afflicted with vocal pal
lor. In range her voice is rather out
of the ordinary and it's quality is good.
Mr.. Miller, who supplied at short
notice for Edward Strong, deserves
special praise for the satisfactory man
ner in which he acquitted himself Of
the role.
The chorus sang last night with spir-
it and appreciation, was prompt in its
response to the batOn's appeal and it's
four chOruses were excellently balanced
An unusual and most pleasing feature
Of last nights concert was the dign1-
fed department of the soloists. With
the memory of the opening concert of
the Choral club still fresh in the mind,
this dignified attitude seems especially
cOmmendable.

Lewis in the role of Noah Vale, will

PROVISIONS OF NELSON BILL.

Senator Nelson's department of commerce bill, after
support in the house by vote of Isl to called
UP by Senator Harna and agreed to without debate IN
the senate Only the presidents signature therefore,
is required to make it law.
The bill creates new cabinet department which
takes the bureau, the labor bureau, the
bureaus of navigation and of standards, the
treasury department bureau of Statistics the
state department bureau of commerce, the
fish commission, the coast and geodetc sur
vey the immigration service and the lighthouse and
steamboat inspection service and adds thereto bureau
of corporations which empowered to collect trust sta
tistcs the publicity of which lies in the presidents dis
cretion.
AS trust bill, it is conservative enough to meet
with the approval of of the trusts and with active
opposition of Otherwise the bill is transfer of
bureaus from existing cabinet departments.
The bill is good thing, far as it goes 1t seq

HOPE FOR CANADIAN RECIPROCITY

Hon. Eugene G. Hay, counsel for the Northwestern
reciprocity organization looks upon the Alaskan
boundary treaty, that has been ratified strong
steppngstone toward reciprocity with Canada. Both
the American and the Canadian joint high commissions
it is claimed, have agreed to spring session with
view to the preparation of reciprocity programme.
The amcable arrangement of the Alaskan boun-
dairy dispute has brought the commissions together
basis Of good will and understanding and with
light on the mutual advantages possible to the two
countries from free and reciprocal trade.
The result will be revival of reciprocity discus
sion both sides, with both governments inclined
favor closer trade relations Great Britain this time
will likewise view the promised closer ties of
cia friendship with favor 1t appears that the British
mother country desires nothing that possibly alien
ate her from close ties this side of the for the
future
When Mr.. Hay returns from Washington his first mis-
sion should be to the Minnesota for the pur
pose Of getting out of the craniums of deuded parsans
that anteduvan relic of high protective buncombe that
the wheat of Minnesota is protected and fostered and
made profitable by tariff enacted in the interests of
the trusts. When he has banished that from
the minds of Minnesota Republican politicians his path
way will be easy for the people and the press of Min
nesota outside of the political buncombe circle heart
and soul for reciprocity with Canada.

GUARDING SMALL CONCERNS.
Senate Committee Has Trouble With
the LittIefieId Bill.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 12-The
senate committee on judiciary contin-
ued it's consideration Of the trust ques-
ton today and after holding two SEES
sions adjourned until tomorrow. The
committee was especially concerned
today in an effort to so amend the Lit
tlefeld bill as not to make it burden
some to small corporations. 1t is prao-
tically the unanimous opinion of the
committee that a bill should be enact
ed into law, but there is much differ
ence as to the phraseology to be en-
ployed.
There also is practical unanimity as
to the desirability of making the pro-
posed law apply TO corporations which
are capable of becoming oppressive in
their operation and of relieving those
which are benefcent in their opera
lions and are not extensive enough to
require close supervision. The COM
mittee is finding difficulty in defining
line of demarcation, but the mem
bers express the belief that a way will
be found out and that the bill will be
so modified as not to make it onerous
upon small concerns.

WHITE HOUSE MAINTENANCE.
This Subject Takes Up Most of the
Time in the House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. r.
The house made slow progress with
the sundry civil bill today. The delays
were occasioned by a rather protracted
discussion of the item in the bill for
the maintenance of the White house,
and there was considerable debate
upon the item appropriating $3,000,00O
for the relief of distress in the Philip
pines. Mr.. Gaines Dem., Tenn.) and
Mr.. Fitzgerald (Dem., N. Y.) criticised
the greatly increased items for the
maintaining of the White house.
Mr.. Fitzgerald On. Y.) referred to a
newspaper report that Col. Bingham's
transfer had been due to his holding
up certain vouchers in connection with
the White house improvements, and
his opposition to the character of these
improvements. He also criticised the
language of the appropriation "for the
care, repair and refurnishing," which
he did not think actually described the
purposes for which the appropriation
was made.

CHICAGO LAWYERS BATTLE
OVER THE WHOLE OF $1.1o
"Old Man" SuIIlvan's Flute the Basis OIL


"oId Man" suIIIvan's Flute the Basis of
the Difficulty.
CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-Nine attorneys
each with an armful of law books plead
ed argued and cited authorities for four
hours in Justice Dooleys court, some Of
them trying to prove that Mrs Margaret
Mcmahon had obtained $1.10 by false pre-
lenses the others seeking to Snow that
Mrs. Mary Sullivan got value received
when she paid the defendant that sum.
When everything was said and done JUS
tice DoOley announced that he know less
about the case than when the lawyers
began, and clamly passed it over to JUS
tice SABBATH.
A flute was the cause of the trouble
in the first place. "Old Man" Sullivan,
as everybody knew MIN, brought the in
strument from Ireland sixty years ago;
and since then no dance or wake in the
neighborhood where he lived was COM
plete unless he was there with the flute
Just before he died he paNned it and
gave the ticket to John McMahan. The
latter paid $1.10 to get the instrument
out. Then he died. and while the wake
was in progress Mrs. Sullivan appeared
and demanded the instrument. Mrs. Nc
Manan gave it up when Mrs. Sullivan gave
her $1.10.
Then, according to Mrs. Sullivan, she
found the flute was not nearly as good as
it had been before, and she had Mrs.
Mcmahon arrested for obtaining money
under false pretenses.
