Special Gable Despatch TO The SUN.
BERLIN, April 5.-After a speech In the
Reiohstag to-day on Germany's foreign
policy Prince Won Buelow, Chancellor Of
the Empire, collapsed.
DIR. Bebel, the Socialist leader, had risen
TO reply, aud just as he began to speak it
was noticed that the Chancellor had be-
come deathly pale. Count ~Posadonsky,
leaning forward, found that he had tainted.
He revived after water had been brought,
but Immediately tainted again.
A physician was summoned and the
sitting was suspended, The Chancellor
was taken In a carriage to his residence,
and he had not recovered consciousness
when he was carried into the palace.
Count Won Ballestrom, President Of the
Reichstag, afterward announced to the
Chamber that the Chancellor had had only
a severe fainting fit. He had been suffering
lately from influenza and the effects of
overwork.
1t was reported q week g that Prince
Won Buelow would resign, but he entered
O vigorous denial.
The Chancellor had been speaking about
the Morocco conference, and had begun
by saying that his remarks would be brief,
because the conference had not yet been
formally closed.
His statement In the main was a reasser-
ton of Germany's position throughout the
conference, namely. a determination not TO
be treated as a negligible quantity and to
assert the principle Of the open door in a
land lying between two great waterways
and with a rich economic future.
The Chancellor evidently desired 20 speak
In a tone oonciliatory to France, whose
loyal conduct during the conference he
said he recognized. At times during the
conference, he said, there had been mo-
ments Of danger. but Germany never would
nave gone to war over Morocco. He con-
cluded by expressing the belief that the
conference would open a new era Of peace
and progress in Europe.
The Kaiser, who is at Potedam, telephoned
to the Reichstag inquiring as to the Chan
cellor's condition, and stated that he was
coming to Berlin.
Late reports say the Chancellor's faint
was 80 severe and the cerebral anemia 30

to work for several weeks. AS soon as he
is fit to travel he will go South to recruit

certainly. Every women over twen-
ty-one votes. The only qualification
is residence of twelve months in the
colony and three months in the cleo
torate where the vote is cast. The
native women take just as much in
terest in politics as the white women,
and are thoroughly we'll posted in ev-
erything concerning native affairs. We
900, and they have their own represen-
tatives in Parliament.
The reason that the women Of New
Zealand have SO much time for politics
is, perhaps, because they do not have
to carry such burden Of philanthropic
work as the women Of less favored
lands. Lady Ward did her best to
think of the charities in which her
cOuntrywomen were interested, but all
she could recall was veterans home
for old soldiers and some orphans
homes. The women give bazaars for
these objects sometimes, but as they
are subsidized by the state the task of
supporting them does not seem to be
a specially ardous one. Then there is
the navy league, branch of an imper-
ial organization, which aims to inter-
est the youth of the country in the
navy, and which endeavors to make
things pleasant for the officers and
men of visiting warships. OF this So
ciety Lady Ward is vice president.
Thea there are some organizations In
the nature of improvement societies,
composed of both men and women but
other than the foregoing Lady Ward
could think of no line Of altruistic and
non-political activities in which the
women of New Zealand were engaged.
I'VE have no poor people," she said.
There is plenty or work for everyone
and not a beggar in the country"
The educational opportunities of New
Zealand are practically equal for men
and women, Lady Ward said. but CO.
education is not the invariable rule.
Some institutions are co-educatiOnal;
others are not, and even the high
schools often separate the sexes. All
the professions are open to women and
there are good many women doctors
and lawyers, but no women reporters
except in the weekly papers.
II think the women are very cOnten-
ted" Lady Ward said. II never heard
of any one who wanted to leave the
country, except for the sake of seeing
the rest OF the world, and when they
do go away they always come back.
have lived there all my life, and I
never saw any country that I liked
better"
Lady Ward had not been long enough
in America to form any Impressions"
but she said, as she glanced out of her
window at the Waldorf, that there
seemed to he great deal of brick and
stone in New York. This impression
was counterbalanced, however, by a
drive through Central Park and along
Riverside Drive ON Thursday. She ex.
pressed great admiration for President
Roosevelt, and also for Princess AL

LADY WARD TALKS.
New Zealand Women Feminine Though
They Vote, She Says.


The women of New Zealand are very
feminine according to Lady Ward, wife
of the Prime Minister of the country
where women have voted for ten or
twelve years. They are noted for their
good dressing, it seems, are fond Of
their homes, and have no desire to
speak in meeting.
sometimes women do speak at a
political meeting" said Lady Ward to
a Tribune reporter at the Waldorf-As-
toria yesterday morning, but it gen.
orally turns out afterwards that they
were visiting Americans, or perhaps
English women. No, we don't sit on
juries and we don't run for parliament.
The law would have to be changed be-
for We could do SO, but don't believe
we want to. Perhaps sometime in the
future it will come to that, but think
it will be long time. We did have
Mayoress once in town in the north
ern part of the colony, but no one
seems inclined to repeat the expert
ment. In fact we are very busy with
our domestic affairs and are quite con-
tent for the present to leave the man
The women of New Zealand place their
homes before every other consideration
and their domestic problems are just
as serious as those of any other coun-
try. Our young women would rather
be stenographers than domestic serv-
ants. and we haven't found any way of
getting on without servants.
But don't imagine that we are not
interested in politics and that we do
not vote. There isn't woman in New
Zealand who doesn't know every men,
Der of Parliament either by sight or by
reputation, and there isn't one who can
not talk intelligently about political
questions. Out on the farms and in
the villages it is just the same as in
the cities. and it makes life ever SO
much more interesting. No matter
whom you meet you will always find
one subject of common interest. Peo-
pie here don't seem to be much inter-
ested in politics, and even your men
don't vote, am told. Isn't it strange?
Perhaps it is because our country is
smaller that we take SO much interest
in its affairs.
Our elections are most interesting
events, and the women do great deal
of electiOneering just as they do In
England. But they don't do much
speechmaking, except among them
selves. Political afternoon teas are q
favOrite method of winning over doubt

and herds, and see with ones own eyes
the daily life of the Pentateuch which
the Mosaic scribe has made SO familiar
to us all.
The Arab population consists of the
Hadari or settled tribes, and the Be-
dawi, or nomad shepherds, who live
under the patriarchial government of
Abraham. The nomads regard the
settled tribes as their prey and levy
blackmail accordingly. Between the
two races there is no comparison in
point of physical and moral character.
The Hadari Arabs are poor, spiritless
creatures-lazy, dishonest in petty
ways, yet protesting great faith in the
"kilhem frenjeyeh" or word of a
Frank" Yet in fact they are suspic-
iOus of his every movement, and the
traveller will have difficulty in persua-
ding Hadari sheikh to change a pal
try Turkish medjedi.
These settled Arabs have their little
mosques and medresehs, or schools, in
which squatting turbanned fitch
teaches small boys to recite unending
Suras of the Koran. The Hadari are
found in Palestine proper, the Hauran
the Bekaa and North Syria.
The Bedouins, on the other hand, are
found in numerous shifting tribal
camps to the south of the Dead Sea.
The Bedawi refuse to cultivate the soil
but the Hadari do practise weird
sOpt of agriculture, scratching the
ground with fOrked branch dragged
by grumbling camel. and sowing seed
which is expected to produce land COM
monty does) most generous crop.
But 1t is the free nomad Bedouin Ar
abs that one finds true children of ma
ture-stalwart, brave and hospitable,
without fixed dwellings, living in pat
riarchial tribes, ruled by chief shep-
herd, or man Of age, and wealth es-
timated in sheep and oxen, goats and
camels, horses, dogs~and women.
The chief occupation of the men is
fighting and robbery. They may tan
a little necessary leather with bark of
the pomegranate tree, but beyond such
minor industries the women do all the
work, while the men go off hunting or
fighting or robbery. They spend their
lives in the open air, these children of
the desert. Their club" is a quiet
shady corner, where nargilehs may be
smoked and quiet game of "tric-trac"
INDUCED ina kind of chess known to
these nomads from time immemorial
They will sit playing thus the whole
day long. uttering no sound save an
occasional "Ya walled" 20 boy" (for
more coffee). of "Ghayyin en- nefes."
Bring another pipe"
The women weave the coarse black
felt for the tents out of camel hair. The
material is thick and waterproof. and
Is stretched on poles. one side being
left open to a height of five or. six feet.
Each tent is divided into two compart-
ments-One for men and the other for
women.
In the women's half is the fireplace
where all cooking is done with brush
wood and camel's litter as fuel. Round
about the. camp roam the herds Of cam
