His biography in the Congressional
Directory-that register of fame

However, as some of these "biog-

Issue in America.

DUBLIN, Sept. s.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee.)-The Freeman's Journal, the
leading paper of Ireland, apprehends that
the United States, like Great Britain, is TO
have its Chinese campaign. Says that paper
edtorially:
Mr.. Shonts, the head of the Panama
Canal Commission, it is stated, has con-
vinced President Roosevelt that the labor
situation in the Isthmus of Panama de-
mands the Introduction OF Chinese coolies.
and II is added that an experimental baton
of $500 are to be drafted for the work The
result is. naturally, that an anti-Chinese
labor campaign, such as that which has
taken place in England In respect of the
Trsnsvaal is threatened throughout the
United States. Mr.. 5honts, of course, has
his excuse. for he says that the climate de-
mands Orientals; but the labor party of
the republic don't accept 1t, and so there
will be a Chinese labor question at the
next American election, as there was at
the last English one. The incident shows
that, however much the western republics
may endeavor to keep clear of the COM
plications of the old world, they will al
ways find It difficult to do so, and that
however simple and logical the Monroe
doctrine may seem to be on the face of II,

Escapes.

GENEVA. Sept. S.-(special Cablegram
to The Bee.)-Two girls named Vachero.
aged II and 1s years, have just accom-
plished daring feat OF smuggling.
They belong 10 a family whose ancestors
have been smuggiers for a century. Their
hunting grounds are in the mountains
where the SWISS Italian and Austrian
frontiers nearly touch at the stelvio Pass.
Many desepFate fights with the customs
officials have taken place at this spot,
until the vacheros have been almost wIped
out. There now remain of the family only
the father and mother and the two
daughters, who are the heroines of this
latest exploit.
At present the father is suffering from
a rife shot through the elbow, which he
describes as an accident" He was un-
able to get a large cargo OF tobacco across
the Swiss frontier into Italy and his
daughters determined TO smugEie the
contrabsnd themselves.
They started, but near the summit OF the
pass were discovered by two customs Of
ftisls. While the elder girl proceeded on
the journey the younger one kept the Of
heers at bay with rife from a sheltered
position. The men replied and the fustIlade
continued until the sister with the tobacco
had got a good half hours start The
younger sister then disappeared and re-
turned home by making a long detour in
the mountains, every path OF which she
knows.

BERNHARDT TO HAVE CROSS

PARIS, Sept. s.-(Special Cablegram 20
The Bee)--In spite of everything 1t APP
pears as though there Is every prospect
of Miss Sarah Bernhardt obtaining the
cross of the Legion of Honor at an early
date. The cabinet has decided to pub
lish the decree of the nomination In the
Journal Ofhcial" over the heads OF The
council of the order. 1t is a mistake to
think that that body has any power OF
veto on nominations by the government.
According to the constitution of the order.
the various ministers are bound to con-
suit the council of the order before max
Ing any nominations. but they are In no
way bound by it's decision. The council
can merely offer advice. In practice. how
ever. an unfavorable decision by the
council has been regarded as veto on
the appointment. This was inevitable.
Thousands of names are annually sub
mitted to the various ministers. They
cannot possibly know the claims and
qualifications OF every candidate. The
names are therefore passed on to the
council of the order which makes an in
vestigation and reports on the aualifica-
tions of the candidates. Ninety-nine
times out of 100 the reasons are not SUM-
cient and the minister accepts the de-
cision. The result has been that the
council has ended by creating a little i'm
perium in inperio and arrogated TO itself
powers of veto which constitutionally II
does not possess. 1t had only to make

Holland and Belgium Consider Closer

BRUSSELS. Sept. s.-(special Cablegram

cal relations between Holland and Belgium
is the echo of a similar discussion here,
which created a more than passing inter
est. 1t is. however. generally felt that
there are serious obstacles to any practical
step toward definite union, economic or
military, between the two countries Hol-
land inelines to free trade; Belgium is
protectionist. The most favored nation
clause exists in most OF the commercial
treaties which Belgium has made with
other countries, and. until these are de-
nounced preferential trading with Holland
Is inadmissible.
The military side OF the question istbeSet
with difficulties. While admitting that it
behooves smaller states 10 follow the ten
dency OF the larger powers to group them
selves for their self-protection, il is doubt
ful how far coalition OF the Dutch anJ
Belgian armies would serve the purpose OF
self-defense sainst an invasion by a power

II is condition OF affairs that has af-

OF the day and are fabricated by a spray

is thus returned to the boilers, where Il
