Berlin Will Venture Into
Street Car Municipal
Ownership.
COMPANY HAS $4,000, 600
Germany Won't Consent to
Place Policing of Mo-
rocco in the
HANDS OF THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

Berlin, Feb. 5.-The municipal au-
thorities of Berlin have decided to
venture into the field of municipal
ownership, and in a short time the
required steps will be taken for the
acquisition of the property rights ana
privileges of the Berlin Street Rail-
way Company, which has practically
the monopoly of street railroads of
Berlin and its suburbs. The plan has
been advocated for long time by a
certain faction of the Berlin City
Council, but not until last week did
the authorities reach any definite con-
clusion. AS the various suburban
towns surrounding Berlin have their
own municipal boards and officials, II
was necessary to reach an agreement
with them before anything definite
could be done, as the street car lines
in most cases connect the city proper
with one or more of the suburban
towns. Last week a conference oi
the Berlin Municipal authorities with
the municipal authorities of the
eight principal suburban towns, in
cluding CharlottenbuTg, was held, in
which 1t was resolved to acquire the
property and rights of the Berlin
Street Railway company and to oper
ate the lines on the joint account
of the municipalities concerned in the
plan. The company has a capital Of
$25 900. 900 Bonds will be issued by
the city to pay for the property ac
uuired.

CHANGING HOTELS TO
THE AMERICAN PLAN.

New York, Feb. 5.-Hotel manage
ment in Europe has been American
lied to a large extent by travellers
from the United States. The next
step will be the building of hotels on
American models from the ground up.
A party of important European
hotel proprietors are now in this eoun-
try on a tour II investigation Two
of these proprietors are about to put
up new hotels in Paris which will en-
body the latest American ideas. Wash
ington, Buffalo, Philadelphia, and
Boston, as well as New York, win be
studied by the investigators.
The visitors made very careful
examination of the steel frame and
hollow tile skyscraper hotels OF New
York, as being the most perfect form
of fireproof construction ever con-
ceived. They had never seen build
ings of this type before, and tie new
Astor and Belmont hotels and a dozen
or more skyscraper apartments on the
upper west side were a revelation to
them. Herr Aulich, of Carlsbad, and
Herr Geisler Of Paris and Trouville,
said they had no doubt Of the fire
proof skyscraper hotel becoming com
mon in Eporpe, although 1t might not
reach such heights there as it does
here. Both gentlemen freely admit
ted that hotel construction abroad.
so far as safety FROM fire is concern
ed, Is far behind the United States.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 5.-Prof. c.
G. Wilson of Brown University, may
not be re-employed next year as the
lecturer on international Law at the
Naval War College. He has held the
place incidentally for several years,
and has received $1,000 for the de-
livery Of a series of lectures to the
student officers at Newport, and the
preparation of a departmental edition
more or less confidential of those lee
lures. For some time 1t has been
thought that Prof. Wilson was en-
titled to an increase of compensation
and this year the naval authorities
have urged the House Naval Com
mittee 10 make the additional allow
ance, with the result that a discussion
OF the wisdom of employing Prof.
Wilson or any other authority has
been precipitated. 1t Is held by some
OF the members of the Naval Com
mittee that the knowledge of Inter

Berlin, Feb. 5.-Germany's attitude
toward the proposition to place the
control of the Moroccan police in the
hands of France and Spain is one of
opposition, since such an arrangement
would, according to the German view,
amount practically to giving France
fall authority over the police. and this
Germany hitherto has steadily resist
ed. The foreign Office says that the
delegates to the conference at Alge-

while the conference is in sitting, to

DOCTORS AGAINST
FILTHY TRAM CARS
Texas Physicians Discuss the
Question After Waiting
on MANAGEMENT.
CAR CONDITION SHAMEFUL
Splitting on Floors by Passengers
Large Cause of Filth Com.
planned Of.

Houston, Texas, Feb. 5.-The Harris
County Medical Association and the
physicians of this city In general are
determined 10 wage a vigorous war
against filthy street cars and the mat
ter will come up for consideration and
discussion at a meeting of the asso-
citation this afternoon. AT recent
meeting of the associatir-'s the mat
ter was brought before the associa-
tion by DIR. w. C. Priester, and a
special committee was appointed and
instructed, together with the commit
tee on public hygiene and health,
to wait on the management of the
street car companies and call their
attention to the disgraceful condition
OF the street cars in this city.
1t is understood chat a determined
effort will be made by the association
to make war on all persons who en-.
danger the health of the people by
splitting ON the floors OF street cars.
There is an ordinance against spit
ting on the floors of cars. The law
clearly recognizes that the practice is
not only filthy, but extremely unsan,
itary, but the street car conductors
make on effort to prevent passengers
from expectorating on the car floors
Their excuse is, that requests on pas
sengers not to spit on the floors oi
the cars frequently leads to alterca
cations and even violence and that
by such disturbances the conductors
endgnger their positions. as the street
car companies do not support them
but side with tho Messengers The
physicians will try to convince the
managers OF the street car lines thai
splitting in the cars should he sup
pressed by all means, and the con
ductors, who attempt to enforce the
law, should receive the hearty sup
port of the companies.
