The genius Of this great Englishman
was such that before he was twenty
he was recognized us the champion
and future leader of powerful school
of philosophy and politics. John Stu
art Mill is said to have studied Greek
at the age of three and at fourteen
had begun logic and political economy.
The writings and doctrines of this
master mind were and are still read
and preached not only in this country,
but throughout the world. John Stuart

Government Greatly Embar-
rassed By Action of United
States Customs Officials
LIMOGES WARE MAKES TROUBLE
France Wants Present consisnments,
Held Up in New York. Released on
Deposit Of Bond During Investisa-
tion-Tariff Complications Growing,
and Good Relations Threatened.

Paris, April 27.-General instructions
have been dispatched to Ambassador
Jusserand, at Washington, to protest
against what is alleged to be an un-
lust charge of fraudulent undervalua-
ton of Limoges porcelain, and to re-
quest that an expert be appointed to
come to France and investigate the
prices, pending which, it is claimed,
the present consignments which are
held up in New York, should be re-
leased on deposit of bond to cover
the duties should the claim of under
valution be sustained. The government
here is especially embarrassed by the
action of the United States customs
officials at this time, as it is likely to
increase the difficulties with which it
may have to cope on May day, for
which occasion the socialists are pre-
pairing demonstrations thruout the
country. About 1900 men employed in
the porcelain industry at Limoges, will
be compelled to remain out of work
pending the adjustment of difficulties.
Complications Are Growing.
The official foreign office remarked
with regret today, that the growing
tariff complications with the United
States were assuming phase which
threatened to disturb the good relations
between the two countries. New vexa-
tons in administrative regulations
against French goods, the official aid,
ed, were being put in operation in New
York, and this, together with public
resentment at the fact that the United
States had seen fit to ignore France
in the negotiations for tariff ar
rangement with Germany, has created
a demand for reprisals, which the gov
ernment is finding hard to resist.
Commission is Probable.
The latest complication comes on the
heels Of the action of the French gov
ernment in suspending the Porto Rican
coffee decree until August. The in
creasingly critical nature Of the situa-
ton is fully recognized by importa-
tions of American goods in this coun-
try. Consul General Mason has al
ready advised Secretary Root to ap-
point q commission, similar to the one
sent to Germany, in the hope Of
reaching a mutually. satisfactory set
tlement. Ambassador White has talk
en- up the subject, and probably will
recommend an identical course.

the secretary entered Sinton hotel three
hours later. to attend the convention

Clubs. of which he Is president. 1t
had only been with great difficulty that
the Yale men were prevented from
coming down to the depot enmasse to
greet the secretary, it being feared that
they would by their demonstration, give
his arrival political aspect. Their
effervescence, however, lost no force by
the temporary bottling, and the secre-
tary when he entered the hotel. was
given reception that was, as fervent
as it was vociferous.
In company witf1other Yale men, the
secretary was a guest at a luncheon at
University club. Tonight he will speak
at banquet of the Yale association.
