Gov. PennypaCker in His Message
To Legislature Deals With
Controversy Over 1t.
HE COURTS A FULL INQUIRY.
No Great Work Ever Achieved With
out Criticism, Dissent and
Even Hostility.

Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 1.-The gem
eral assembly of Pennsylvania con-
yened at noon today. After the or
ganization and the reading OF Gov.
Pennypacker's last message recess
was taken until Jan. IA. The Repub-
lican party is in a majority in both
houses.
Gov. PennypaclSer In his message
deals with the controversy over the
decorations and furnishings of the
new state capitol The erection of this
structure cost $4,000 900 and the de-
coratlons and furnishings $9,0G0,O00
Charges of extravaganza were made
in connection with expenditure of the
s9,0e0,000 and the matter was made
an issue In the last gubernatorial cam
paign. The money was largely ex
pended by the board of public grounds
and buildings of which the governor

The governor courts an inquiry and
requests the legislature to investigate
the charges.

the governor says, the commonwealth
nlicated task In manner which Will
reflect credit on her for ages to come"
Continuing he said In part
The capitol is all paid for and has
been paid for cut of revenues without
the imposition OF burdens on the peo-
pie Two alone of the railroads of the
commonwealth pay to her annually in
taxes S3,656,229 and since they are
largely owned in London and New
York, it is at least partial truth that
the capitol is only return to us of
some of the wealth derived by the
stranger from our own natural re-
sources Some OF the most skilled ar
tisans aud most capable artists now
living have devoted their efforts and
talents to its erection and Ornamental
ton.
No important work was ever
achieved on this earth, whether for the
betterment OF human affairs, the en-
hancement OF human interests, or the
elevation of human sentiment without
an aftermath OF query, criticism, dis
sent, objection and even hostility. The
industrious farmer plows his field for
next years CROP while birds of III omen
sit along the fence and croak their dis
pleasure. The vapors from swampy
grounds often obscure for a time the
very moon In the heavens, II would
be too much TO expect the capitol. beau

the wealth of the thought OF all past
time, and builded for the centuries that

today, and n IL cannot be denied that
the eyes OF men tighten and that their
hearts warm as they view its wondrous
success, at least II can be urged that

advise that YOU make a thorough and

Berlin, Jan. 1.-Prof Muensterberg
OF Harvard university. In an Interview
yesterday. said that lately there has
been marked change FOR the better in
the relations between Germany and the
United States He gave three causes
for this Tho FIRST Is The popularity OF
Baron Speck Won Sternbcrg, the German
ambassador, and his close familiarity
with President Roosevelt secondly, be-
cause affairs relating 10 the United
States are now handled IN tho ministry
OF foregn affairs by Herr Busch for
many years an attaohe az Washington.
and third, the growing antagonism be-
tween tho United states aud Japan.
Formerly, Prof Muenstcrhcrg said,
Americans believed that the next ma
ton they would have TO meet in war
was Germany. Now the California
question. the Philippines and the
Sandwich Islands all presented points
OF differences which might easily cause
serious trouble.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Providence, R. l., April 20.-Chief
1eoman Fred j. Buenzle, who was
barred from dance hall in Newport
because, as he claims, he was wearing
uniform of the United States navy,
can recover at law only the price of
his admission ticket, according to
decision handed down by William H.
Sweetland, chief presiding officer of
the Rhode Island superior court.
The decision, which is long and
which overrules demurrers raised by
the defendant, says the legal rights of
man wearing the United States uni
form are not different from those OF
any we'll behaved person who possess
ses a ticket of admission to any place
OF amusement.
Judge Sweetland rules that Buenzle,
excluded because he was wearing
naval uniform, is in no different posi-
tion legally from one who is excluded
because he is not in evening dress or
for any other reason, though it may
have been but whim of the defen-
dant, the motives of defendant are held
as cause. In other words the Judge
said the proprietors of a place of
amusementsare not under any obliga-
tions to admit any person whom they
may choose to exclude. This is the
case in which Roosevelt sent check
to help pay the expenses in prosecu-
