Coed Story on Edward Atkinson
Baltimore News. J

A Baltimorean who met Edward
Atkinson, the noted Boston economist
and conversationalist, at luncheon in
Boston recently, tells me that he
heard from Mr.. Atkinson's lips this
story:
The Bostonian many years ago,
while sightseeing in Washington,
came over to take a look at Baltimore.
BY chance, he engaged an Irish hack
man who was voluble with his South
ern sympathies. The talk so amused
Mr.. Atkinson that he warmed to his
driver and the two became great
friends before the end of the ride
Then Mr. Atkinson said to the Irish
man:
What would you say if you were
told that you had just been driving
around a black abolitionist, the trienc
of the negro and a hot Yankee
well" said the driver Il dom
know what 1 should say, but [ know
what | should like to say
What is that?'
The devil is not so black as he is
painted"

REPUBLICANS IN FAVOR
 OF TWO NEW STATES
ACTION AT CAUCUS OF HOUSE MEMBERS HELD LAST
 NIGHT.

Unanimous Declaration to Admit Okla-
 homa and Indian Territory as One
 State and Arizona and New Mexico
 as Another-ActiOn Cor ,idered as
 Binding-QuestiOn of the Sale of
 LiquOr--BIlI to be Reported Rt Once.
 Washington, Dec. 1.-The republican members of the house in caucus to-day unanimously declared in favor of ad- mitting Oklahoma and the Indian Territory as one state, and by a. vote or no to 65 declared in favor of admitting Arizona and New Mexico as one state. Both statehood questions are to be con- tained in one bill. The conference which resulted in this action took place immediately at the conclusion of the session of the house and occupied an hour and g. half. The only opposition to the programme was directed against joining Arizona and New Mexico, and it is understood that MT. Adams of Wisconsin and Mir. Tawney of Minne- sota were the only speakers on this side.
 MT. Hamilton, chairman of the com mittee on territories, in a resolution declared it to be the sense of the con- ference that one state be made out of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory, and one state out of Arizona and New Mexico, and that the committee on ter- ritories be requested to formulate this plan in one bill.
 The Hamilton bill already introduced, contains the necessary provisions to meet this resolution, and will undoubt- edly be the measure reported by the committee. Hearings on this bill and the question of embodying constitu- tional amendment prohibiting the sale of liquor in the two territories were begun to-day. Aside from this question the bill is practically in shape to re- port. The bill probably will not be re- ported until after the holiday recess. When 1t Is reported rule will be brought in for it's immediate consider ation by the house. The conference had not proceeded long when the debate was limited to five minute periods, and this action caused complaints by those opposing the admission of New Mexico and Arizona.
 Questions were asked as to the pind- ing character of the conference, and replies enphatieally indicated thar d conference of republican members Of the house should De considered as bind ing on the members participating in it. "t $,~ %';. -.'.'G''
 Representatives Powers ana Little field of Maine were among those fa- voring joint statehood.
 Representatives James E. Watson of Indiana was chosen by the conference as the republican whip to succeed MT. Tawney of Minnesota.

ENFORCING LIQUOR LAW
 IN THE CITY OF BOSTON
HOTEL TOURAINE COMPELLED
 TO SURRENDER LICENSE.

Guests Unable to "Get n Drink"-Part
 of Stock Placed in storage for the
 Present--Eight Saloons Closed
 Within 400 Feet of school Houses
 others May Have to Shut Up.
 Boston, Dec. 14.-The efforts of Dis. trict Attorney John B. Moran, the new prosecuting officer of Suffolk county, to obtain more rigid enforcement of the liquor law in this city, resulted to- day in the closing of eight saloons and the surrender or deposit of 2 liquor license Issued to John R. Coleman, an employee of the Hotel Touraine, a lead- ing hostelry, and frnm whom the guests of that house have obtained H. quor for the past seven Or eihgt gt@gearss
 The saloons which were closed by order of the board of police commis- sioners on the ground that they were within 400 feet of schoolhouses are sit uated on Columbus avenue, Roxbury, and on Camlbridgejstreet, West End.
 The license issued for the benefit of the Hotel Touraine was surrendered, according to J. Reed Whipple, the lessee of the property, but the police commissioners hold that 1t was mere ly deposited. The police commission CTS will keep the license pending an investigation on their own part as to whether the method employed by the hotel in obtaining liquor for its guests was violation of the law relative to the proximity of school house. A part of the liquor in Cpleman's wine room was placed in storage to-day, and the guests at the hotel were unable to ob- tain any alcoholic beverage.
 Counsel for MT. Whipple stated that every effort would be made to comply with the order to cease serving liquor, received last night from the district attorney, but he refused to say wheth- CT the curtailment of the hotels li- quor license would result in the clos ing of the house, as has been report ed. The police commissioners held 8 long session to-day, but they made no effort to comply with the request rec ceived yesterday afternoon from the district attorney to visit him in his off, flee, and reply to interrogations rela- tive to the alleged violation of the law in the issuance of liquor licenses, and by those already holding such docu- ments. It also developed to-day that the schoolhouse, which is situated on Trement street within 400 feet of the Hotel Touraine, has two annex schools on Eliot street, which, if considered a part of the main institution, will com- pei the closing of ten saloons within the restricted radius on that street.
 The police commissioners are also Investigating this situation.

TO STAMP OUT ALL HAVING
DETERMINATION TO GET RID OF
 EVIL AT ANNAPOLIS.

Secretary Bonaparte to Dismiss Two
 Midshipmen Within a Few Days
 orders Superintendent to washing
 ton for q Conference--Initia Step in
 vigorous Campaign Against Hazing.
 Washington, Dec. 14.-Hazing Of ev- cry kind, it was announced to-day, will be stamped out of the naval aca- deny, regardless of the number of dis rnissals from the brigade of midship- men necessary to bring about the re- suit. Two midshipmen will be dismiss ed from the academy within a few days by the Secretary of, the navy, the one for hazing and the other for coun- stenancing it by failure while on duty to report its occurrence. Other dis Inissals will follow as often as mid ,shipmen are found guilty of hazing or countenancing it. -@9s 5 Aroused by the condition of affairs which reports show to exist at the ac- ademy so far as the treatment of fourth class men are concerned, Secre- tary Bonaparte late this afternoon tel ephoned to Rear Admiral Sands, super intendent of the academy, a request to come to Washington as soon as possi- ble for conference. The conference will be held tomorrow morning. It will be the initial step in a new and vigorous campaign to be waged at Annapolis against hazing. Admiral Sands will have the unqualified support of the navy department in his efforts to abolish the evil. and Secretary ,Bonaparte to-day announced that the admiral possessed the full confidence of the officials here. Congressional investigation of the conditions at the academy has already been proposed in resoltion introduced in the house this afternoon by Representative Loud of Michigan. . .ss
 When Secretary Bonaparte reached the navy department to-day he receiv- ed an official report from Admiral Sands announcing the suspension of Midshipnan Trenmor Coffin, jr., third class man, for iazing Midshipman Jer- done Pettus Kimbrough, fourth-olass man, by forcing him to stand on his head until he became unconscious, and of Midshipnaan Warren Abbe Vander- veer, second-class man, because while on duty he observed the occurrence. and failed to report it. The superintendent called attention to the fact that Mid shipmen Coffin and Vanderveer were guilty of violating a. well-known regu- lation for the government of the naval academy, and recommended their sum- mary dismissal, in acordance with an act of congress approved March 8, 1903
 That act provides that the superin- tendent of the naval academy shall
 make such rules, to be approved by the secretary of the navy, as will ef- fectually prevent the practice of haz- ing, and any cadet found guilty of par- ticipating in or encouraging or coun- tenancing such practice shall be sum-

PLUMBERS STRIKE SETTLED
COMMITTEES REACH AN AGREE
 MENT IN HARTFoRD.

Decline to Answer Decision as to How
 the Question of the Open Shop Was
 AdJusted-strike Started October 15
 and Many Building Contracts Have Been Held Up i'm Hartford.
 Hartford, Dec. M.-The plumbers strike, which has been on here since October 15, was settled tonight at a meeting of committees from the Mas- ter Plumbers association and the un- ion held, in the office of Mayor Hem ney. The committees came to terms quickly and 1t was announced at the conclusion of the meeting that the terms were satisfactory to both bodies, but neither committee would announce how the question of the open shop supply house was left. This question was the one on which the factions split, and which had prevented pre- vious continuation of the trouble. The masters held that the supply houses should sell only to the master plumb CTS, while the union insisted that the supply houses should be allowed to sell to the independent dealers as we'll. It is understood that the union won its point, but this could not be con- firmed.
 The strike originally started on the refusal of the masters to grant the de- mands of the men for an increase of $3.50 from $3 for g. day of eight hours, this to be the minimum wage. This was refused and the men went out. Several weeks ago., however, the ad- vance in wages was granted the men, but the men would not go back until the supply house question:, which came up after the men went on strike, was declared settled. Another matter which remained unsettled until tonight was that of apprentices. It was agreed to allow one apprentice for every shop, and two for four journeymen, and one for every three additional, the mas ters to have control of the apprentices.
 The strike was declared on October 15, and since that time many big build ing contracts in the city had been held up. About 100 men were effected.

 Several transfers were made by the board Of finance at it's weekly meeting last evening. From the payroll account of the police department the following transfers were made: To the account of wagons and harness repairs, $2OO; to forage, $50; to lighting, $4OO. In the public works department $165 was transferred from care of public wahrf to repairing other streets account.
 The board rescinded its action of Au- gust authorizing the board of educa- ton to draw upon the contingent fund to an extent not to exceed $64O for pay ment of the inspector at the Scranton street school. and transferred that amount from the contingent fund to the board of education for that purpose. Through some misunderstanding the board of education had not drawn un- der the order.
