PREACHED ON LAWYER
SERMON OF DIR. WASHINGTON
 GLADDEN. ON BAR.
Said that Attorneys Who Use Their Talent to Defeat Justice are
 Menace to
 Society.

Columbus, O., April 9.-Rev Dr. Washington Gladden., preaching today at the First Congregational Church upon the Religion of the Lawyer" said:
 "The function of the lawyer Is the right administration of the law. If thls is the work of the lawyer, then his business is essentially religions; his function Is sacred as truly as that of the teacher or the clergyman.
 There are a great many lawyers whose revenues enlarge simply because they have earned the reputation of be- ing able to instruct and defeat the law of the land-who are recognized by criminal and predatory classes. rich and poor as their allies.
 Do not understand me to raise the common question whether a criminal may be defended by a lawyer. Ger tainly, he may and must be defended. If Is no discredit to the best lawyer that he defends the worst criminal.
 "The law is good even in the case of great criminals if a man use it law fully.
 Tt is the perversion of law. the abuse of law in the sheltering of male factors from its penalties, by which many lawyers enrich themselves.
 '"There is no class of men in our so- ciety more hateful or more dangerous than unprincipled lawyers.
 "when we think of the manner in which some of them have sold their 1eyal talent to gigantic plunderers, how thev have put their vast learning to inc service of men whom they know to he bent in perpetration of wrongs, 1t Is hard for any honest man to stand in tbeir nresence and hold back the fam ing word of indignation.

MADRID IN MOURNING
WATER PIPES CAUSED COLLAPSE
 OF RESERVOIR.
Many of WOrkmSn Rescued Went Mad Yesterday and King AIphOnSO Kept in Constant COmmuni-
 cation With Scene.

Madrid, April 9.--It appears that un- derneath the foundations of the reser- voir which gave way with such dis astrous results on Saturday were water pipes used to supply the palace and old Madrid.
 of the subsistence and not the surface of the ground which when tests were made, sank only eleven millimeters. The vault was built of cement with iron girders. as were also the support ing columns. The first fall caused all the pillars to bend and the end of the iron work to stretch, resulting in a general and uniform collapse. These explanations however cannot be con- sidered final
 Madrid newspapers publish assertions that the disaster had been foreseen by engineers as well as by workmen. It is now recalled that the bad condition of the soil on which the reservoir was constructed caused keen opposition and numerous criticisms when the state ment was being discussed in the cortez.
 Workmen who have been questioned say that they were compelled to build too rapidly with materials so defective that a disaster was bound to happen.
 Many heart rending instances and painful scenes are reported. Ten of those who were rescued alive have gone mad.
 A huge crowd stood around the scene throughout the night watching the att tempts at rescue in the light of huge electric lamps.
 Crowds of workmen and women carrying black flags forced all theatres to close Saturday night. King Alfonso had a telephone wire laid from the scene of the disaster to the palace and by that means was kept constantly informed. The King again visited the hospitals this morning.
 Some of the injured have died. One body was recovered from the ruins during the night, but none later. Seven hundred workmen are engaged in clearing the debris.
 During today students and working men paraded the streets collecting money for the families of victims | of the disaster The public is con | tributing freely.
 | The Governor of Madrid has prohibit
 ed a great popular demonstration of
 mourning which the workmen wish to ! organize. but he received the delegates | of the workmens associations who he ! informed that street procession would be permitted under certain restrictions. Carving black banners 5000 work
 men made a demonstration this even ing near the scene of Saturdays reservoir disaster The police on | seIzing the flags were stoned by the crowd and several persons on both
 sides were seriously injured. An exact estimate of the casualties ! is still impossible. It is stated that
 there were 238 men in the lower part 1 of the reservoir, all of whom were ! killed

SENATOR'S ABSENT.
Joe Bailey and CulbersOn Haven't Been

Joe Bailey and CuIberson Haven't Been
 Around President.
 Washington, April 9.-(Special.)- Texans and Southerners generally. have been remarking the fact that neither of the two Texas Senators was present at the several demonstrations attending the appearance in their State of the President of the United States.
 They have been watching this point and they are well aware that Senator Bailey is in Texas and has not been where President Roosevelt has been. Senator Culberson is here and will reach Texas just about the time MT. Roosevelt Is many miles away from Texas soil. The tone of comments is that the reported enthusiasm for Mir. Roosevelt is not reflective of the solid good sense of the State. but rather of an emotional sort or intended to be typical of generous hospitality.
 It Is repeatedly heard that President Roosevelt's iterations and reiterations about one country. and his being half Southerner and about the welcome given him by Confederate as well as Union veterans in view of the record of his own administration, after almost four years of opportunity as President, to demonstrate what he means simply Delle ms pTOIeSblOUS. u IS TeI1aTheu that he has appointed no Southerner to a cabinet position. that in no de- partment in Washington has he made a single important appointment for Southerner. that the only places in the departments held by Southerners are protected by the civil service: that in all the diplomatic service of the United States. covering the civilized world. not a single substantial recognition is given by his administration to any Southern States best clements either in business, society and culture, that even leaving Democrats out of con sideration. he has ignored the respecta- bIe Republicans of the South. There Is in short, a general feeling of sur prise both at President Roosevelt in his professions to the southwestern Southerners and their emotional slop- ping over when he appeared among them R. H.

 Mrs. Terrell spoke of citizenship from a woman's point of view. and in this she touched on problems confront ing the colored women.
 The colOred women of the country" she said, 'tare doing as much to pro- mote good citizenship as their more fortunate sisters in white. This is i'm terpreted by them to mean an intelli- gent regard and tender care of their children and conscientious and care full consideration of every question which concerns the welfare of the race"
 She criticised the convict camp sys- tenn of the South and said that many good people sympathize deeply with the oppressed people of Russia. who either do not know or forget there are hundreds of colored men and women in the United States subject to tortures as diabolical as those of Russia's op- pressed class.
 'Colored women." she concluded. 'be- lieve that good citizenship means the protection of the womanhood of the raca insisting that the men who trans eress the moral law shall be banished from good society as inevitably as the women they destroy"
 Mrs Solomon brought the greetings of the National Jewish Council of Wo- men.
 'The religion which I represent" she said, "has something of harmony of all religions for Judea gave the world its civilized religion. No nation which loses its religion can survive Here in the council all creeds can get along together by doing justice to all'

DIR. HILLIs,s SERMON.
Referred to Lack of Gratitude foE
 R0ckefeller'a Gift.

Referred to Lack of Gratitude for
 Rockefeller's Gift.
 New York, April 9.-In the course of his sermon in Plymouth Church. Brook lyn today the Rev. Newell Dwight HiIlis, referred to the gift of $100.00O made by John D. Rockefeller to the American Board of Foriegn Missions and to MT. Rockefellers son. He said in part:
 'sThe saddest words that have been written in this generation were spoken before Brown University by a young man who Is to inherit one of the great est fortunes in this country. They were spoken in defense of the trusts. Listen to them:
 "The American Beauty rose can be produced in all its splendor only by sacrificing the early buds that grow up around it: the rose has one thou- sands buds and in order to produce the American Beauty the gardener goes around 1t with a knife and snips 999 in order that all the strength and beauty may be forced into one bloom. In this economic argument this young man tells the working classes brutally that 9e9 small business men must be snuffed out of existence in order that this American Beauty. the trust, may be produced. Listen to Christ. let the strong bear the burdens of the weak and again give and 1t shall be given unto you
 These words in defense of the trusts are the most heartbreaking things in literature to those who know what is going to come in the future. Can you wonder that after that. when a man gives gifts. we have no gratitude to return"

PRESIDENT IN CAMP.
Viewed Wild Woods and Said He Felt
 at Home.


 Frederick. Okla. April 9.-President Roosevelt and party left Frederick shortly before o'clock yesterday even ing and arrived at the camp, eighteen miles southeast of town. a little after dark
 The camp is nestled in timber firing ing Deep Red Creek, in a picturesque spot, and when the President arose at 6:15 o'clock this morning and first be- held the vast panorama of virgin soil, without a sign of civilization except the camp. he said he felt at home.
 Major J. E. Muchert of sherman, with c. B. McHugh and J. R. Abernathy of this place, located the camp last Mon day. riding out to the big pasture which begins four miles east of here. A num- Der of wolves and loboes were seen in this 48,O00-ac reservation as they passed through.
 The camp consists of about twenty tents belonging to the Presidential party, and is called Camp Roosevelt. One large tent is occupied as a mess hall, a number of tents being used for sleeping apartments, about four cots being placed in each tent. About a stones throw from these tents is Camp Ouanah Parker, occupied by the noted chief of the Comanches. three of his souaws and some other Indians.
 These Indians travelled over forty miles yesterday to get to see the Presi- dent. A detail of twenty troops from Fort Sill keep trespassers from this part of the reservation. Their camp is about one hundred yards from that of Camp Roosevelt.
 The people here, however, appreciate

PEACE FORCES
 RESUME WORK Z Rojestvegs4y Has Not
 TckIed Togo. FIX END OLIVE BRANCH TOgO'S Fleet is Threatened
 From Rear. Russian Peace Advocates Think That This Condition Makes Cxar's Ad- vances for Cessation of
 Hostilities Honorable.

St. Petersburg, April 1O.-(2:40 a. m.)-There Is reason to believe that Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky's entrance into the China Sea has been followed by orders for the cruisers Gromoboi. Rossia and Bogatyr. which have been ready for some time at Vladlvostok to put to sea.
 Whether it is the intention to send them south immediately, or to hold them in the vicinity of Vladivostok .s not known. Their appearance outside the roadstead of Viadivostok would constitute a. potential threat against Admiral Togo's rear which will com pei the retention or dispatch of a number of heavy fighting ships to Japanese waters.
 Thus Admiral Togo seems to be vir- tually placed between two fires.
 The peace influences in the govern ment urge that this favorable strategic position presents the psychological moment for offering officially tho olive branch to Japan. reasoning that no matter how confident the Japanese government may be of Togo's victory 1t cannot overlook the possibility of defeat, nor fail to appreciate the com plete disaster which would follow the transfer of the mastery of the sea to Russia. So much depending upon the issue, they argue. both countries have mutual interests in avoiding an actual test, and it is not impossible. therefore. that a new move in the direction of peace may come just as the world ex- poets to hear the call to quarters for the greatest naval baetle of modern times Certainly the spirits of the war party have been greatly raised by Ro- jestvensky's success in penetrating to the China Sea; and the prospect of a naval battle. even with the odds against a Russian victory. which would change the entire complexion of the situation, has aroused something like a flash of enthusiasm in many Russion breasts.
 Some naval officers express the Spin- ion that Rojestvensky having now safely navigated the Straits instead of sailing north to meet the Japanese, can afford to calmly await Vice-Admiral Nebogatoff, with his division of the squadron who could arrive there in about three weeks.
 The Russian admiralty on Sunday re- ceived a long dispatch from Singapore but no intimation as to its contents has been given to the newspapers. The papers Sunday morning printed Sinea- pore dispatches without comment. The Sviet being the only exception.
 This paper views the news rom ho- jestvensky as an suspicious prelude to a decisive battle, which may show that over Rojestvensky still shines the happy star which helped him when a lieutenant to save the fragile Vesta in an unequal conflict with a Turkish battleship. The Sviet expressed the hope that Rojestvensky Is destined to turn the tables and that even in case of defeat some of his vessels will be able to break through and reach the Japanese Sea.
