Patriotism and the spirit of good fel.
patriotic concert, held at the Audito-
rum under the aspiees of the executive
committee of the Grand Army of the
Republic. Men and women from all
parts of the union and from all walks
of life but bound together by their
love for Old Glory gathered in an audi
torium beautifully decorated with the
gram inspiringly reminiscent of the
days when men freely gave their lives
to save that flag from disgrace.
Never have performers on a local
stage received a more gratifying recep-
tlon than that given the men and wom-
en- who took part in last evenings pro-
gram. From the time the audience gave
three cheers for the loving hands that
had provided the artistic decorations
there was manifest an appreciation and
an enthusiasm worthy of the excellent
work of the artists who entertained
and the time and the cause. g

GETS A DIVORCE IN : MINUTES.
No Opposition to Mrs. HuntinRt0n's Plea
Sails for Japan.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 22.-Mrs. Mary A.
Huntington got a divorce to-day in about
the quickest time on record. The pro-
ceedings did not occupy more than seven
minutes.
Mrs. Huntington testified that she had
never, to her knowledge, given her husband
any excuse for deserving her. She also
declared he had never offered her a home
in Los Angeles, which caused surprise, as it
was understood Huntington had bought
the Childs mansion in Los Angeles for a
home about six years ago.
Nothing was said about property settle
ments, although Mrs. Huntington said there
was no community property. Her home
In jackson street in this city is in her own
name. How much of Huntington's $40, o0o,-
900 estate is given to her is not announced,
but it is probable she has beer assured a
good income.
There was no trace Of regret in the face
or manner of Mrs. Huntington to-day when
she went aboard the liner Korea, bound
for Japan. Indeed, she might have been
thought to be starting on a wedding journey,
instead of just leaving home divorced after
more than thirty years Of married life.
She chatted gayly with several friends at
the g~angplank, and then went to her state
room, which was full Of flowers.
Mrs. Eleanor Martin, a leader Of local
society, came with a bouquet inc remained
for half an hour.

The Mayor laid before the commission a
long brief explaining in formal language
his objections to the proposed terms for the
franchise, and ultimately his resolution call
ing fora conference between representatives
Of the Board Of Estimate and the commission

The commission approved OF the scheme

BANKER mock FOUND GUILTY.
Jury Holds That He Incorporated
DOyIestOwn Bank Funds.

PHILADELPHIA, March 22-After several
hours elaboration the jury this afternoon
found George Philler Brock guilty Of will
fully misapplying the funds of the wrecked
Doylestown National Bank. Brooks at
torney asked for the customary time in
which to file a motion for a new trial, and
this was granted. The defendant was adj
mitted to $40, 900 bail.
Brooks attorneys declared that the case
would be fought to the highest court in
the land. Should the court refuse to grant
a new trial an appeal will Immediately
be taken to the Circuit Court of Appeals.
'They might put a knife in me and twist
1t around and 1 would not whimper,' wa
the only comment that Brock made.
The lawyers say that Brock and Henry
Lear, the president, under five years sem
tence on the same charges, are in reality
the only persons who have suffered as a
result Of the failure of the Doylestown
bank on July 20, 1908. The stock OF the
institution was selling at that time for about
$50 a share, and since its reorganization
the value Of the shares has crept steadily
up until they are now valued at about s185.
The depositors have been repaid in full
and all the stockholders have lost is an
assessment on their shares.

ALGEcIRAs, March 22.-After much de-
liberation the delegates to the Moroccan
conference decided not to hold a session
to-day apd to hold the next IN Saturday.
Austria's amended proposal for mixed
French and Spanish officers for the Mo-
roccan police is now generally attributed
to Mr.. White. one Of the American dele
gates, with the support Of his Government,
or to President Roosevelt personally.
One report states that the Car melted
Mr.. Roosevelt to make the proposal. 1t is
believed that an agreement on tho subject
has not yet been reached.
The French and German delegates are
awaiting instructions from their Govern
ments. but it is regarded as probable that
they will agree at the next plenary session
on Saturday.

PARIS, March 22.-The correspondent
Of the Temps at Algeciras attributes the
latest proposal regarding the Moroccan
idea was first mooted at Algeoiras it was
condemned as likely to lead to unpleasant
ness between the officers and consequent
friction with Spain, which France is most
anxious to avoid.
LONDON, March 23.-The Morning Post
makes a feature OF a despatch from its
Washington correspondent declaring that
an agreement for the policing OF Morocco
has been accepted by France and Germany
and that the plan has been approved by
the United States, Great Britain and all
the other neutral Powers.
1t is nominally Austria's proposal, but it
actually originated with Mr.. White, one of
the American delegates to the Algeoiras
conference, and was sanctioned by the
Government at Washington, the Secretary
Of State having first submitted it to the
British Government, which received it with
unreserved acquiescence.
France and Germany, according to
the correspondent, AVE Internationally
pledged themselves to accept the principle,
but the details have yet to be arranged. The
gist of the scheme is that French and Span
ish officers, appointed by their respective
governments, will command the police
at the ports, they to have equal and CO.
ordinate authority.
All the privates and non-oommissioned
officers will be natives. There will be a
Swiss in~spector-general without military
command, but he will personally inspect
the work Of the officers and their subordi-
mates and see hat their duties are properly
performed. He will report to the Powers
as their executive officer.
MADRID, March 22.-The newspapers
assert that a new secret treaty in reference
to Morocco has been signed by France and
Spain.

DEPUTY CHIEF GUERIN HURT.
Thrown From His Gig I'm Collision With a
Trolley Car-SpectacuIar Fire.

The st orehouse Of the Consolidated Fire
works Company on Richmond avenue,
Graniteville, with its contents was totally
destroyed by fire last night. 1t was a very
spectacular fire. 1t was in a one story
frame building, 300 feet long by 40 wide.
which contained a considerable amount Of
fireworks. The firemen were unable to do
anything to save the building or its con-
tents and they and the police devoted
themselves to the task Of keepingthe curious
out of range Of the flying balls Of colored
fire.
During the fire there were several severe
explosions, which shook buildings within
a radius of a mile and broke glass in some
Of the nearer houses.
No idea of the loss could be formed last
night. Those on the ground said this could
only be made by the owners in Manhattan.
In going to the fire Deputy Chief Guerin,
who is in charge Of the fremen on Staten
Island, was injured and had a narrow
escape from being killed. He vas being
driven along Richmond venue from Port
Richmond when his gig was hit by a trolley
car coming in the opposite direction and the
shock threw him sideways over the dash
board to the macadam. His hands were
skinned and his legs scratched, but he went
on to the fire and rem ined until it was out.

Special Gable Despatch TO THE SUN. 81.
HAVANA, March 22.-Notification has
been received here from Washington that
the crews of vessels plying between South
en ports of the United States and Havana
need not be immune against yellow fever.
This modifies Article 1oS OF the quaran-
tine regulations and will be of great ad-
vantage to the shipping companies in
Havana and the United States in the event
Of a close quarantine being established.
Doctors from Mobile are now here looking
into the conditions.
In connection with the steamer CTistobal
Colon, which is now en- route from the United
States for Batabano, on the south coast
of Cuba, between which port and the Isle
Of Pines her owners decla re she will ply,
the authorities assert that President
MoKinley's order establishing ooastwise
traffic for Cuba and Secretary Roots onder
Of 1901 regarding the customs regulations
are not applicable to the case of the Colon.
President MoKinley's order established
a coastwise trade for United States vessels,
but 1t is said that this was done to facilitate
the occupation of Cuba by, the militia ry
forces Of the United States, Mr.. Roots
order said, among other things, that where
possible the custom house officials should
be army officers. 1t is therefore argued
that for these and other similar reasons
the orders only referred to the period Of
Intervention, and that the coastwise trade
belongs only to Cuban vessels.

CHICAGO, March 22.-Paokers freed under
the decision Of Judge Humphrey on the
immunity plea now face the possibility
that the Government will seek to have
them held in contempt OF court for viola
ton Of Judge Grosscup's injunction.
They also face the fact that President
Roosevelt to-day took hold of the situation,
comforting in Washington with Attorney
General Moody, Secretary Taft and Com
missioner Garfield.
In the meantime counsel for the packers
declare that no more immunity pleas may
be expected, From this point every move
OF the Government will be fought on its
merits.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-The Govern
ment has decided to appeal from the decis-
ion of Federal Judge Humphrey at Chicago
yesterday, in which the Court held that the
beef packers had received a promise OF
immunity from COMMISSIONS Of Corpora
tions Garfield.
Attorney General Moody, who returned
from Chicago last night, had a conference
at the White House to-day with the Presi-
dent, Secretary Taft and Commissioner
Garfield, and the whole question of the pro-
posed appeal was discussed at some length.
Senator Knox, by whom las former At
toney-GeneraD the action against the
packers was instituted, also had a confer
ence with the President, but he did not
visit the White House until Mr.. Moody, Mr..
Taft and Mr.. Garfield had left.

DOCTOR LEARNS THAT SEVERAL
ARE PRENTICE HEALERS.

Strikes Him as q Startling Novelty in the

X-sclence OF Amy Kind Substituted for

admitted that Mrs. Rowell, the trained
nurse who gave siK-year-old Miriam Flag
Ter of al West 145th street mental treat
ment, cold air and sleet instead Of the medi-
cines prescribed by the attending physician
had attended q Christian Science church
in Harlem and had resided for a while with
a Mrs. Brown at 81 West 10th street, a
Christian Science healer. At the same time
they denied that Mrs. Rowell was a duly
authorized Christian Science healer.
H. Cornell Wilson of the Christian Science
Publication Society, Fourth avenue and
T~wenty-third street. who was one Of those
who went yesterday to DR.. Frank E. Shaw,
the Flagler girls physician, and spoke to
him Of Mrs. Rowell's status, said further
more that there were fifteen OIL twenty
Christian Scientists in this city who are
qualified trained nurses n regularly
accept employment from various physicians
these nurses continue in that employ
ment," said Mr.. Wilson, because they are
not competent as yet to take places as
Christian Science healers. There is moth
ing wrong about 1t. Christian Science
makes them better nurses and their train
ing as nurses makes them eventually,
when they become sufficiently proficient,
better Christian Science healers,'
DR.. Shaw expressed establishment at
hearing that a physician ran the risk Of
employing a prentice Christian Scientist
when he was ~endeavoring to cur a
trained nurse to carry out his instructions
TO the letter. Mr.. Wilson simply reiterated
his declaration that Christian Science
made the women better nurses.
In discussing the method followed by
Mrs. Rowell Mr.. Wilson raised the dis
tinction that she was a mental scientist,
not a Christian Scientist. Her plan, he
said, was the application Of sheer force
OF will or hypnotism as against the prayers.
mental suggestions and moral suasion Of
the Christian Scientist. For this reason,
he said, Mrs. Rowell was not admitted to
membership in the Christian Science
Church and was not regarded with v
by members of that sect.
Mrs. Brown, the Christian Science healer
with whom Mrs. Rowell lived for a time,
drew the same distinction and added that
Mrs. Rowell believes in using will power
over the patient.
DIR. Shaw recalled that Mrs. Browns
statement comported with a statement
made to him by the nurse over the tele-
phone shortly before he discharged her.
Il have. got power over the child all
right she s9id to him. But when any
one comes In 1t upsets the ohild's mind and
l lose what I have gained
DR.. Shaw said that his patient had shown
a slight Improvement yesterday. The
child is still very III with pneumonia, how
ever, and the doctor considers her chances
OF recovery precarious.
