PLEASED WITH PRESIDENT.
German Press Praised His Talk to
Veterans

BERLIN, April 15.-The North German
Gazette this morning discusses with warm
apprecfakica President Roosevelts utter
ances - the German veterans last Thurs
day. Two circumstances, says the semi
official organ. strengthen our confidence
that German American relations continue
to be developed along the pleasant lines Of
the past. The first Of these is that Presi-
dent Roosevelt, one Of the greatest and
most characteristic chief executives of the
United States, has thrown the weight of
his personality in favor of a rapprochement
between two nearly related people, and the
second Is that an understanding of the Ger
man character across the ocean and of
American charteristics in our fatherland is
growing steadily.
The Cologne Gazette regards President
Roosevet's words as going much beyond
conventional courtesy. The paper rejoices
especially to see that Germany's peaceful
policy is recognized by such impartial
observer, adding: This can console us for
many a bitter pill we had to swallow at
Algeciras for the sake of peace
The paper warns Its readers against inter-
preting President Roosevelt's words as
foreshadowing on alliance.

separation from his wife about three years
ago. The explanation was made that being
unable to secure d divorce In Russia be-
cause of the strong official feeling against
him, Gorky secured "a divorce In Finland
and was married to Andreeva before a
notary. When approached on this subject
today Gorky said:
honor to the American press, and am sur
OF fair play and Its reverence for women
such Shiny slander as this should have
gained credence
She is my wife. No law that was ever
devised or made by man can make her
more so than she is now. The insnuation
that the relations existing between us are
Illicit is base calumny. Never was union
between man and woman more holy and
moral than that of ours
Madame Tried to Appease Gorky.
Madame Gorky tried to appease her hus-
band at this point, but he struck the copy
OF the paper in which the defamatory arti-
Gle appeared, and cried
a lie travels fast, and I must oyertake
this one before II has gone too far. / will
prepare a signed statement for the press
and see II right and justice prevail In
America"
Madame Gorky sought to have the re-
porter translate the article in question to
her. but Gorky Violently tore the paper
from his hand, saying:
Il forbid you to read this horror"
Later Gorky Issued the signed statement
quoted above.

NEW YORK, April 14.-When Maxim
Gorky arrived in this city last Tuesday he
stated to the immigration officials that he

morning the statement was published that
his companion was not his legal wife, who
with his children, remains in Russia. AS a
result of this publication Gorky today is

omcial designation of the public grounds
embracing the Washington city filtration

gan, recommending that the grounds In

Senator from Michigan.
Senator Mcmillan" Mr.. DENLY said,

cannot think that the citizens of Washing

beautiful parks and most useful institu-
tions."
Representative Denby stated also that the
citizens of Detroit are raising funds for a
statue of Senator Mcmillan with q view to

A BLOW TO PARLIAMENT.
Ukase Creates Committee to Deal
With Russian Finances.

ST. PETERSBURG. April 14-with
absolute unanimity the papers here
today. even the Novoe Vremya, express ex-
treme discomfort with the imperial ukaso
issued April II creating a committee of
finance" to decide matters relating to tho
issuance of loans and In general everything
relating to the national credit
This is regarded as another severe blow
to the power of parliament, and as virtually
taking away from the nations representa-
tlves all control of the nations finances.
The text of this important document is as
follows:
I'VE find IL useful to exclude from the
competency of the council of the empire
and the lower house of parliament the right
10 determine the times and conditions OF
loans and to consign the same to a COM
mittee OF finance. which is also charged TO
study all questions relating TO the credit of
the empire and the monetary system.
At the same time we reserve the right
10 submit TO the preliminary examination
of the committee such financial matters as
the budget, which must go before parlla-
ment.
