ADJUSTMENTS
Amateurs at the Unique

A big crowd Of amateurs thronged the
stage Of the Unique last night and gave
one of the best shows Of the season. In
fact, amateur night" at this theater,
because Of the wealth of amusement fur
nished by the would-be actors and ac-
tresses, is a close second to the profess
sional bills for entertainment.
The hit of the evening was Little
Jimmie's' stunt, assisted by Herman lie
F1eur and John Dunn. Eva Lumpkin and
Irene Little sang illustrated songs. Other
singers were Mary Cummings, Daisy
Wall, Frieda Gerbreth, Bessie Frantney

dance, were well received. Webb broth
ers, magicians, and Miller brothers, aero
bats, were also in the bunch.

IMPORTANT HAz1Nq QUESTION
How Far Can an Upper CIassman be
 Compelled to Testify.

Annapolis, Md, Jan. 10.-After an att tempt lasting over an hour to arrive at exact conclusions as to how far an llp- per classman could be compelled to tes- tify as to his knowledge of hazing in cidents in a case in which another nid- shipman is under trial upon the charge of encouraging or countenancing haz- ing the court martial engaged in the trial of Midshipman Stephen Decatur, ir., rendered no decision and adjourned until tomorrow when the judge advo- cate is expected to inform the court in the matter.
 The point came up after Midshipman Petersen E. Marzoni had objected to answering questions as to hazing which it is alleged, had gone on before him. In the former court martial of Midship- man Decatur, Marzoni testified that he was present. when Fourthclassnan Gaylord Church was hazed by being compelled to do the sixteenth and that Decatur was present. Proof of &C., tive participation in hazing was neces- sary to fix that charge. In the present trial, however, encouraging or eoun- tenancing hazing" is charged, and it is claimed that no midshipman who was actually present, particularly a first classman, could testify without incrim- mating himself.
 As it is expected that all of the cases yet to be tried will contain a charge and specification relative to "encourag- ing or countenancing hazing," the de- cision upon this point is considered ina- portant.
 The charges in the next case to be tried, that of Midshipman John Paul MSler of Lancaster, Ky, are drawn with view to making the opportunity of escape on a technicality as meagre as possible.

PHILIPPINE TARIFF BILL.
Vigorous Speech for It by MT. DalzeIl
 of Pennsylvania

Washington, Jan. 1O-A vigorous speech in favor of the Philippine tariff bill by MT. Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, opened the proceedings in the house to- day. It was followed by several others against the measure, the most notable of which was a two-hours' address by the veteran statesman, MT. Keller, of Ohio, an ex-speaker, who returns to the house after retirement of twenty years.
 MT. Keller bespoke 'stand-pat' doo- Urine of the most pronounced type, and said he should oppose the pending bill because 1t was a concession to the dem- ocratic principles. His speech was re- plete with recolleotions of earlier days, and received the closest attention and liberal applause from both sides of the chamber
 Just before the session closed the in- cident of the election from the execu- tive offices of Mrs. Minor Morris was made the subject of discussion by MT Sheppard, of Texas. A brief reply was made by MT. Grosvenor, of Ohio, who deprecated sending out sensational re- ports regarding the American admins tration.
 MT. Dixon, of Montana, opposed the Philippine tariff bill briefly, and MT, Granger, of Rhode Island, favored it.

MOROCCAN CONFERENCE.
Possibility of Rupture Lending to a
 Conflict


 Rome, Jan. 10.-It is probable accord ing to a competent authority that the Moroccan conference at Algerciras will result in one of the following ways;
 First-A rupture of the negotiations, possibly leading to a conflict.
 Second-In the solution of the sever al problems to the satisfaction of all the interested powers; or,
 Third-In a mere academic discuss sion, which will leave the situation practically unchanged
 It is generally believed, however, that the first named result is altogether un- likely.
 The Messagero to-day, in an appreci- ation of Henry White, the American ambassador, who is about to leave for Algerciras to represent his government in the conference, says:
 America is again about to make a powerful contribution to the peace of the world. It is noble mission for this young people who desire to attain a place in the history of this century, which is to mark the triumph of civil ization and the abolition of war"
 The Marquis Visconti Venosta of the Italian delegation, before leaving for Paris to-day on his way to Algerciras, said he was convinced the result of the conference would favor the cause of peace

BRITISH ELEOTDsIN FIGHT.
Daily Growing in Inter teIhsity-Church-
 ills Restless Energy.

London, Jan. 10.-The election fight is daily growing in intensity and the par ty leaders, with the aid <bf motor cars, are displaying the igreathst energy in addressing many meetingls at different places on the same day.
 The premier, Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman, who spoke at Shrewsberry tonight was hoWled down by Cham berlainite minority, and was compelled to shorten his speech. Disorderly meet ings of this kind are not uncommon.
 John Burns, president of the local government board made a successful tilt against Joseph Chamberlain, com polling him to publicly retract his statement that a million able bodied men were being supported in the work houses of Great Britain. MT. Burns produced statistics which proved that the warehouses were at present sup porting only 214,SN persons, the major- ity of whom were either sick or dis abled.
 One of the most striking characters in the campaign is Winston Spencer Churchill, whose resistless energy, it is admitted by friends and foes, is domin- ating the struggle in Manchester.

MAY HAVE TO FACE STRIKE
TROUBLE BREWING BETWEEN LACKAWANNA AND FIREMEN

Shorter Hours and Better Pay the
 Principal Points in Dispute-Contro-
 versy Going On Since Last August
 With President TruesdaIe -- Latter . Refers Whole Matter Back to His
 Superintendent.
 New York, Jan. 10-Trouble is brew ing between the Brotherhood of Loco motive Bremen and the officials of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad, and there were indications to- day that the Lackawanna system may soon have to face strike. Shorter hours and better pay are the principal points in dispute and the controversy has been going on since last August. The men chiefly concerned are 569 fire men, but there are many other employees vitalIy interested.
 ALlST lldNluS LHelF u6lnaIQS denied by all other officials, including General Superintendent T. E. Clarke, of Scran- ton, c. A. Wilson, first grand master of the national brotherhood and members of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western grievance committee came to New York to-day and sought an inter- view with w. H. Truesdale, president of the Lackawanna system.
 MT, Truesdale received the committee and informed his callers that his reply would be forthcoming in short time. Scarcely had the committee had time to get back to their hotel before President Truesdale's answer was in their hands. In the brfefest form possible, it referred the whole question back to General Su- perintendent Clarke. Upon receiving the answer MT. Wilson and the com mittee went into secret session and dis oussed the situation for several hours.
 Neither President Truesdale nor Mr. Wilson would discuss the matter to- night.

SENATE NOT ANXIOUS.
Heard fin Executive Session All It Wants To on Moroccan Question.

Wants To on Moroccan Question.
 Washington, Jan. 1O.-The senate made it plain to-day that it had had yesterday all that it wants to hear for the present on the Moroccan question: There were two opportunities to resume consideration of the subject, but both were avoided, apparently with the assent of all the members. Having had its day in court, the resolution dealing with the subject was placed on the call endar and when it was reached in reg ular order no one manifested the least disposition to disturb it there, and the senate adjourned at a comparatively early hour rather than take it up.
 Notwithstanding the early adjourn ment. great deal of business was dis posed of. About eighty bills were pass ed, leaving on the calendar only six or seven measures. Of the bills passed a large majority grant private pensions, and many were bridge bills, One of the bills favorably acted upon appropriates $20O, 900 for the appropriate marking of the graves of Confederate soldiers who died in northern prisons during the civil war.
 For the rest, the senate gave atten- ton, in turn, to the question of the sal aries paid to Panama canal officials, to the pure food bill and the merchant marine shipping bill but without talk ing any action The canal subject was discussed by Mir, Simmons and the pure-food bill by MT. Hepburn. The only action taken on the shipping bill was that of reading 1t at length.
