Italian labor agent last night and were
trapped in the hold of the steamship Ger
mania, whittier their deceiver led them in
the guise of taking them to work.
After remaining all night in their dark
prison the Italians created such dis
turbance this morning that the ships crew
armed themselves and opened the hatch.

their trouble and a warrant was issued
FOR the arrest of the swindler. The Ger
mania Is of the Fabre line and would have
sailed to Medterrean port this week.

The President Expresses Sympathy.
President Roosevelt yesterday addressed
q letter through the State Department to
Ambassador Aoki as the personal repre-
sentative of the Emperor of Japan, in which

MISS SHONTS WILL NOT
WE'D FRENCH NOBLEMAN

VIZ ASHINGTON.-The departure Of
W Theodore P. Shonts, former
chairman of the Panama canal com
mission, with his two daughters, for
New York, where he is now head of
the Metropolitan traction interests,
has again revived talk concerning the
engagement of Miss Shonts to the
Due de Chaulnes.
If there ever was an engagement
It is now off, as Washington society
has the story, and the reason for this
failure of another international ALI
ance is said to be the refusal of Mr..
5honts to grant the ducal demand
for q settlement.
It is accepted here as the correct
version of the departure of the duke
without a bride that Mr.. Shonts stood
firmly for the American idea of mar
riage settlements. He is reported to
have told De Chaulnes that he would
give his daughter a stylish wedding,
provide her with a trousseau fit for a
princess, and a substantial wedding
allowance that would keep her in pin
money for long time, but to enter
into any agreement to settle an in
come on her for life before marriage,

TO HAVE the proper and legitimate
i expenses of national campaigns
paid from the national treasury for
the different political parties, and to
permit in presidential campaigns only
closely limited use of money other
than that drawn from the public
funds, is the striking project which
the president has in his mind as a
means of purifying national politics
and preventing improper use of money
drawn from improper sources.
There has been much doubt wheth-
er the scheme of publicity, after cleo
ton, of campaign expenditures would
be very effective. Practical politi-
clans have protested that it is locking
the barn after the horse is stolen
1t would be required, of course that all
money should be carefully accounted
for, vouchers should be made and
carefully audited, and the purposes
for which 1t could be used would be
limited to speaking. literature and or
ganizRtion.

CANAL ZONE MEN HURT
PRIDE OF CONGRESSMAN

The congressional party headed by
the speaker believed they had been
so badly treated that they had the
steward on the steamship prepare
their luncheon for them. Each mem
Der of the party on the train carried
a lunch box.
When the train pulled into Panama
Superintendent Beard of the Panama
Railroad company had prepared an
elaborate luncheon for the members
of the speakers party. They went in
the dining-room and ate the luncheon,
and on leaving the table each mem
Der of the party left at his plate the
customary price for a luncheon
Superintendent Beard found the
money on the table, and, as his
guests had gone, sent it back to the
steamship with a curt note that he
was not authorized to collect none!
for the luncheon.
"The Panama commission may have
gentlemen in it's offices in Washing
ton, but it certainly has none of then
at work on the canal" the speaker il
reported to have told Gov, Magoon.

and they have more than dozen serv-
ants, with twice that total several
days a week. Over the Fairbanks
kitchen now presides John Rock, the
chef who was the joy Of Levi q.
Letter and his friends
Rock has so much money to spend
that he gains precedence in the mar
ket over Pinckney, the buyer for the
White House. Fairbanks has given
his man a free hand to stock the pan
try with the choicest Injuries, and
just what this means may be gathered
from the fact that at two receptions
nearly 1000 guests partook of a buff
fet supper at which tarrapin, every
kind of shell fish and the finest i'm
ported wines we're served. Lavish
ness is the keynote of the Fairbanks
establishment, and to her regular en-
tertainments Mrs. Fairbanks now has
added frequent and large theater par
ties.

MYTH a presidential bee buzzing

cial campaign that has made the whole
capital rub it's eyes in surprise and
wonder at his extravaganza
Since the Fairbanks weather eye
was fixed steadily on the White House
the expenses of the family, it is said,
have jumped from $4,000 to $1,000
Mrs. Fairbanks now is one of the
most popular hostesses in Washing
ton, and from the occasional recep-
lions of two years ago has developed
to two formal affairs a week.
Formerly the Fairbankses lived in a
modest house at Eighteenth and Mass
achusetts avenues, the rent of which
was $4,000 a year Then they had
only five servants in all, and they
were without a carriage, hiring a We
hicle whenever needed. Now they
pay $4,000 a year for the mansion of

this he would not do.
Personally the head Of the Shonts
household wants to see his daughter
happily married, and, If he had any
objections to the French nobleman,
was willing to put them aside If Miss
Shonts was satisfied with the duke.
So, according to some of the wise
ones, the match will never come off,
as the duke is reported to need the
money" for while he is long on
lineage and incumbered estates, he Is
short on cash.
To all appearances the two young
people are really in love- "But what
can a duke and duchess do without
sufficient means to keep up their end
of the social gamer" asks Washington
society. Still, some believe the young
people may yet decide to marry with
out the settlement and take their
chances on papa's determination not
to rehabilitate the De Chaulnes es-
tates.
While in New York the Misses
Shonts will help their father in select
ing a home for the family, to which
they will move from here some time
early in June.
