NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Of State Root
has decided to accept the invitations
given him by the resident diplomatic
representatives of South American
countries to extend his projected trip
to Rio SO as to circumnavigate South
America and to visit Buenos Ayres,
M~ontevideo, Santiago de Chile and
Lima. The secretary would like to in

and La Paz from the seaports will pre-
vent him doing so.
Mr.. Root will be accompanied by
Mrs. Root and Miss Root and personal
servants only on this trip. He expects
to come up the west coast of South
America to Panama, and crossing the
isthmus at that point to take one OF
the Panama railroad steamers from
Colon to New York. The trip will be-
gin early in July, the Charleston start
ing from New York or Newport News,
and will end about the first of October.
1t is the intention of the secretary to
stop a week or ten days in Rio during
the conference there, and his stay in the
other capitals to be visited will be linn
tied to two or three days in each case.

Enormous Influx of Alien.
Immigrants.

WaShington.-The reported arrival
of $4,000 immigrants at Ellis island
last week has created alarm among
labor leaders, particularly those in
control of the mine workers. The
charge has been made that many of
the immigrants were being brought
to this country in anticipation of a
coal strike and that they will be used
as strike breakers.
No evidence has been adduced to
show that the coal operators or their
agents had contracts with any of the
immigrants. 1t is limited, however,
that Labor spectators" have paid
their passage, given them the re-
quired entrance money and are TAX.

State Senator U. j. Albertson as trus-
tee The trustees bond is $4,000.
Trustee Albertsen issued a state

The liabilities, due to depositors and
other banks, are said to be in excess
of $500, 600, against which there are
assets of about $4,000 a portion Of

The failure is due to large sums Of

ARGUED BEFORE FULL BENCH
SECOND APPEAL OF SENATOR
BURTON, OF KANSAS.
An Array OF Legal Talent Trying to
Save Their Client From Go
ing to Prison..

Observation-Disclosures on the
appeal OF Senator Burton, of Kansas,
to the supreme court of the United
States was heard before the full bench
Tuesday.
Burton is seeking to avoid the pen
itentiary term awarded him upon his
second conviction at st. Louis of hav-
ing exercised his influence as a senator
at the post Office department in be-
half of a grain company, against which
proceedings were pending for having
used the mails to defraud.
Ten lawyers, including some o. the
best legal talent in America, were pres
ent to argue for the courts benefit.
One novel point was raised in the
contentious of the appellant. The valid
ity of the act of 1864 under which
Burton was prosecuted, was assailed
upon constitutional grounds. 1t was ar
gued that this act by which congress
conferred upon the courts jurisdiction
to try senators and representatives for
certain prohibited acts repealed section
5, article 1, of the act which declares
that the senate shall be the Judge of
elections, returns and qualifications of
it's own members"
By his conviction and sen zen Bur-
ton is rendered forever incapable of
holding any Office of honor, trust or
profit under the government of the
United States.

BLACK FOREST CALAMITY
Fffty-Five Persons Killed and q
Hundred Injured BY the Col
lapse of q Hotel Building.

Naglog, Little Black Forest, Germany.
The Hotel Zum Hirsch collapsed
and 100 dangerously injured, Thursday,
by the collapse Of the Hotel Zum
Hirschen. The building had not been
fully completed, and the catastrophe
is attributed to the non-observance of
proper precautions. The roof of the
building was only put in place Thurs
day morning, an event which, in ac-
cordance with German custom, was
celebrated with a feast. The guests were
reported to have engaged in a dance,
and this, together with the large num-
Der of persons on the floor, probably
was what caused the building to col
lapse.
The town presents an in~describabfe
scene of horror and grief. There is
hardly a family but has lost n or
more members. The villagers and peO-
pie Of the surrounding country are in
Quiring for their relatives. The dead
are laid out in the town hall adjacent
to the scene of the disaster. The work
of rescue is still proceeding, and the
full losses are not definitely known.

One Life Lost md Several Persons
Rescued From Imminent Peril
BY Firemen.

Portland, Ore.-Fierce flames, FRI
day, destroyed the eighth-the top
story-of the chamber OF commerce
building and was the indirect cause
of the dsath of Homer Fl. Hallock,
right-of-way agent of the Willamette
Traction Co. Mr.. Hallock, who was
one of the best-known railroad men in
the northwest, was in the Commercial
club when the fire broke put. He
seems to have become suddenly mad,
and despite the efforts of several
men, who strove to restrain him,
jumped down the light well onto the
roof Of the Central court, eight sto-
ries below, and was instantly killed.
The property loss is estimated at
500, 000, partly insured. The build
ing was recently purchased by the
United Railways Co. for $750,000.
Unable to escape by the usual
means of egress, the elevator being
burned away, about fifteen men and
women crept out through the win
dows onto the wide %cornices, where
they awaited rescue by the firemen
by means of extension ladders. Then
a mans head, peering far over the
edge Of the cornice of the roof was
discovered, and the firemen once
more assembled. 1t was found that
the ladders were too short, and yet
another ladder was added before the
hremen could reach him. When they
finally did SO he was In a state of

In the Pennsylvania university there

A rule recently adopted by the Gin

every teacher or employee over so
years of age shall undergo a physical
and mental examination, under the di-
rection of the committee on hygiene
and sanitation, to determine the fitness
for the responsibilities of their posi-
lions. Similar examination is to be
made every five years after the age of
80. If the employe is found to be fit
he shall be preferred above all others
for the position he then fills.
William H. Maxwell, superintendent
of the New York schools, is a great
believer in manual training. At the
recent dedication of the magnificent
manual training high school in
Brooklyn he said: Twelve years ago
it was hard to get $4,000 for manual
training high school purposes. Now
we have a building which cost nearly
