school boys were being paid by men to
lure young school girls to cellars where
their ruin could be accomplished. For
each girl procured boy received ten
cents. Ali of the girls are under twelve
years of age. One man has been indict-
ed, who numbers nine young girls as his
victims A conviction in his c,se will
result in sentence Of over one hundred
years. Charles Harowitz. q thirteen.

that he had lured dozen school girls

He said he received ten cents for each
girl. Hanger Smith, an assistant janitor

nal assault in the basement of the school.

Murderer Hanged.

New Orleans, La, March "a
Lewis J. Lyons, the murderer OF Dist
riot Attorney j. Ward Gurley, was hang
ed between IL and | o. clock this morn
ing in the yard of the parish prison. The
crime was committed on the morning of
July 20, 1908, in the office of Mr..
Gurley. Lyons fired four shots into the
body OF his victim, and then shot himself
in the head, with suicidal intent. He
recovered, but the slight of his right eye
was destroyed. At his trial the defense
of insanity was urged. The case finally
reached the supreme court. The board
of pardons was asked TO commute his
sentence, but it refused. About FIVE
years ago, Lyons was arrested for
stealing a diamond pin from Dan Carroll,
sugar broker. Before he was called
for trial the thief was discovered and
convicted. Lyons brought an action
for damages, against Carroll, and two
detectives, but lost his suit. He claimed
that Mr. Gurley and the latter's partner,
ID. Q. Mel!en, did not properly handle
the case, and from time to time annoyed
Mr. Gurley. On one occss sion he
challenged him to fight duel,

As ANTICIPATED, the Maryland Court @

AS ANTICIPATED, the Maryland Court oil
Appeals yesterday rendered unani-
nous opinion affirming the decision OF
the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel
county in the case of the DISTINGUISHING
amendment to the constitution, which
was passed by the democratic majority
of the last legislature, and which Cover
nor Warfeld refused to sign. The decision
means that Governor Warfeld is not
sustained in his contention that the
amendment was not valid without his
signature, and hence could not be le-
gally proclaimed by him. The view was
urged upon him by fhe leading demo-
Gratis OF Maryland but he refused to
heed them. As result of the decision
the governor is called upon to comply
with that provision of the State consti-
tuition which requires the publication OF
the amendment in leading newspapers
throughout the State. The decision is
undoubtedly victory for the democratic
managers who prepared the amendment,
who supervised its passage by the demo-
cratic msjorities in the last Senate and
House, and who should and doubtless
will now devote their best energies to
its adoption BY the people at the election
next November, knowing full well that
if incorporated into the organic law Of
the State it will mean the perpetuatiOn
of democratic power during the lifetime
of the present generation, at least.

THE WAR.

While the Car and his ministers are
discussing peace proposals, the Japanese
are executing a wide double thanking
movement around the retreating Russians
near Gunshu Pass, 108 miles north OF
Tie Pass. and in view of an expected
attack or prolonged siege, the Russians
have ordered the women from Vladivos-
tok. 1t is doubtful whether the garrison
has sufficient supplies of food or ammn-
milton for such trial.
General Linevitch already realizes that
unless he can hold the line of the Sun
gari river, the nearer he approaches
Hardin the greater will be the danger OF
a severance of his sole line Of cOmmuni-
cation.
1t is questioned whether be will be
sufficiently strong, although receiving
about ! 200 reinforcements daily, to hold

400, 900 in check, but be has been in

his entire command.

Russians entered Changtu and large

interests of London, Paris and Berlin are
now said to be exerting a strong influence

FRIDAY EVENING, MAR. "a. 1905,

THE ADMINISTRATION is gradually
beginning to realize what many practi-
cal people knew seven years ago, that
this country would saddle upon itself
an elephant when it took possession OF
the Philippine Islands. The objections
urged against this ill-adyised freak by
people having the welfare Of the country
at heart we're logical, but an expansion
epidemic WAS raging, more acute than
John Laws Mississippi scheme or the
South Sea bauble, and, as is usual dur
ing the prevalence OF national distem-
per, reason was temporarily deth.oned.
The republicans operating the ship OF
state during aud since the Spanish war
now seem to be clothed and in their
right minds" and have come to the
conclusion that the Philippine Islands
can never become profitable to the
United States, and they are contemplate
ing unloading them upon Japan, thus
admitting that the twenty million dollars
paid Spain for the islsnds-many OF
which never belonged to the Castiiians
and the many millions subse-
quently expended in subduing the
natives are virtually sunk in the
Pacific ocean. The administration is
now bringing forward the same reasons
WHY the United States should dispose OF
the ISLANDS that many people urged against
their acquisition seven years ago. The
rise of Japan into world power may
or NAV not become a menace to the
United Sta.es-probsbly not during the
present generation, but there is no FORE
casting the future. The French, Eng
lish and Germans have for years been
squatters in the celestial empire, main
tanning their positions by might rather
than right, and with the United States
within eco miles of Hong Kong, this
country is keeping company with cations
Objectionable to the Mongolians. The
worm may turn upon the intruders.

Correspondence OF the Alexandra Gazette.j
United States Minister Griscoin has
sent to the State Department from Toxic
an interesting. report on the subject OF
merchant vessels captured or lost in the
Russo Japanese war. He says that so
far as known up to this time the japanese
have captured twenty-three merchant
steamships, most of which were fine
vessels. OF this number thirteen were
Russian, seven British, one French one
German and one Dutch. He makes the
comment that no merchant steamer fly
ing the Russian flag, nor any mer.
chant vessel of nom Russian national
ity carrying contraband of war, has been
sunk by the japanese On the other hand
niue Japanese merchant vessels have been
sunk by the Russians, of which six were
privately owned aud only three were
under charter by the japanese govern
ment. Minister Griscom adds: mo
vessel was captured by the Russians who
resorted solely to sinking the enemy's
craft" The number also calls attention
10 the fact that the japanese sunk seven.
teen oftheir own vessels for the purpose
of blockading Port Arthur. The Total
tonnage ofthese was 35, 20S. The mer'
chant marine of Japan has actually in
creased since the war began, says Minister
Griscom, SO steamers being purchased
abroad, besides the addition of % vessels
captured.
A fraud order was issued against the
Old Kentucky Co., of Covington, KY,
by the Postoffice Department today. The
concern sold four quarts of whiskey for
81. 25 giving five coupons which could be
sold at so cents each by the recipient
and the proceeds retained. The pur-
chaser OF coupon bad like opportunity
TO buy and in turn sell. The depart
ment holds that the scheme comes under
the endless chain principle and that it is
a lottery.
The United States government con-
victed itself of violating the smoke law
this morning. Public Printer Palmer,
as chief OF the government printing
Office, was fined $50 in police court for
permitting the big stack at his insti-
tuition 10 emit dense volumes of heavy,
black smoke. He contends that it was
not his fault, but the fault of the boilers
and furnaces furnished by the govern
ment. The case will be appealed.
Senior Don Manuel de Azpiroz, the
MEXICAN ambassador. is living at the
point of death. He had another sinking
spell early this morning, and his family
and the attaches of the embassy are now
gathered at his bedside awaiting the
end. His physician. DR.. Jung, has
given up hope.
Secretary of War Taft, who has gen.
eral supervision of State Department
affairs during the absence of Secretary
Hay, remained closeted with the Presi-
dent for half hour after the cabinet
meeting this afternoon discussing the
Venezuelan matter. On leaving he de-
clined to state what action, il any, had
been decided upon.
The astounding disclosures of the gi-
gantic fraud perpetrated by the Storey
Cotton Company are not a matter OF
surprise to the officials of the Postoffice
Department who say that for over four
years they have been endeavoring to
collect sufficient evidence to deny that
concern admission to the mails.
Another large crowd attended the
Benning races today.
