GERMAN ATTACKS
MONROE DOCTRINE
Professor Declares Principle Is
Absurd in Book on the
Americans.

Berlin, April 25.-Professor Muen-
sterberg has written a two-volume
book, The Americans which a Ber-
lin publisher will bring out next week.
In chapter on the Monroe doctrine.
the author says the time is near when
the absurdity of the doctrine will be
seen and the rejection Of it will pro-
coed as rapidly as the adoption OF
imperialism by the masses of the peo-
pie proceeded.
The professor argues that the con-
ditions no longer exist which gave
rise to the doctrine, namely, the con-
trast between Europe as the land OF
tyranny and America as that of dem
ocratic freedom. Americans know
that the west of Europe nations have
popular representation, while they
know still bette. that the Latin Amer
lean republics, except Argentina, Chile
and Mexico, are most repulsive carl
catures of liberty and democracy.
Furthermore, the second original
argument for the doctrine, namely
the political safety of the United
States no longer exists.
Professor Muensterberg adds:
eff the United States continues to
assert the doctrine, it cannot escape
the reproach of promoting anarchy
and hindering the progress of one Of
the richest cOntinentS''

One CUT In TWO;
HEAD TAKEN OFF
Four Men, While in Drunken
stupor, Struck and Killed by
G. & N. w. Train.

Winona, Mimi, April 25.-Four
men were run down and killed a mile
west of Winona on the tracks Of the
Chicago & North Western.s
Two empty bottles Of alcohol
showed the men had been drinking,
and the superstition is that they fell
asleep on the track. Engineer Philip
Riley, who had charge Of the forward
locomotive, felt no shock, and there
was no outcry.
The accident was discovered by
stopping to investigate a dragging
noise under the tender and the finding
of a body there. The other three men
had not been dragged, and all had ap-
parently been instantly killed.
William Radigan was cut in two;
man supposed to be William Mack
had his head taken off; Oscar w.
Larson lost a leg and was hurt inter-
nally, while George Hendricks, who
was employed on the steamer Beaver
on the Ohio river a month or two
ago, and was known as Blackey, was
also badly mutilated.
At first 1t was thought there
might have been foul play, and several
partners Of the dead men were arrest
ed but an investigation by the au-
thorities goes to show 1t was simply
a case of too much liquor.

stream in that state, which did SO
much damage in last years flood, is
rising slowly no fear Of the outcome
is felt as yet.
At the mouth Of the Kaw at Kan
sas City, the rise has amounted to
three feet and some minor damage has
been done. It will take a very much
greater rise before the danger point is
reached.

slightly. Trains from the west are
late, the tracks at several points be-
ing under water or unsafe.

FLOODS REACHING
WINNIPEG STREETS
Rivers Overflow Their Banks
Without as Yet Becoming
Dangerous.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Winnipeg, Man., April 25.-The
submerged portions of Winnipeg and
it's suburbs adjacent to the swollen
rivers disclose an interesting state OF
affairs, without being dangerous.
Generally speaking the Red, Assini-
boine and Seine rivers are in full flood
and almost to the tops of their banks.
In some portions Of Winnipeg and st.
Boniface they overflow. These are the
low-lying districts and as a rule are
sparsely inhabited on account of the
fact that nearly every spring floods oc-
cur.
On the east bank of the Red river,
the in-rushing waters have flooded
the Norwood flats.
The Seine river, usually an Insight
ficant brook, is now a vast stretch OF
water wider than the Red river in the
summer. Outhouses and box cars on
it's banks appear to be floating.
The Red river has risen little, it any,
during the night or if it has, the area
now to be covered by few inches rise
is SO large that no perceptible differ
ence is noticed.
On the Winnipeg side the last three
houses Of Notre Dame street east, are
in water. The big crane on the south
side of the bridge appears to be IN
about ten feet of water.
