REV. DIR. GoUcHER RESIGNS.
Noted Baltimore Pastor Quits Head
Of Woman's College.

BALTIMORE. November Pit was
with the keenest regret that the mem
hsrs of the faculty, students and friends
a the Womans College of Baltimore
learned Of the resignation of Rev. Dr.
John Franklin Goucher from the Office
Of president of the college. The an
neuncement was given out yesterday aft
e.noon at the close of the meeting Of the
beard Of trustees
DR.. Goucher has been closely associated
with the life of the Woman's College from
the time Of its projection. which resulted
in the founding of the college in 1888. to
the present. He has been its president
since 1889, filling the Office with distin-
guished credit. drawing no salary and
frequently making large contributions to-
ward its welfare.
An evidence Of DIR. Gouchers interest
and constant thought for the college was
shown in the gift of his city home, 2313
st. Paul street, to the college authorities
to be put to whatever use they thought
best. suggesting that it might be used as
an administration building. This occur
red last fall, but the board expressed the
wish that he should continue to occupy
the building as his home during his life.
DR.. Goucher spends most of his time
when home at his country seat at Pixies
VILE.
DR.. Goucher was born at Waynesboro,
Pa, June Z. 1915. His father was Dr.
John Goucher, distinguished surgeon of

shot cartridges. and. against naked men
an ounce of shot is far more effective
than bullet.
The captain hoped to terrify the Indians
before they attempted to scale the ships
sides. If various ruses failed and the at
tack was pressed, he had decided not to
split up his small force in the effort to re-
pei boarders. A scattered resistance
would surely break down at one point or
another; there would be a rush of saw
ages along the decks, a panic among the
Chileans, and all would be ended. On the
other hand, when fighting collectively
under European leadership. and well
aware that the Indians would kill and
spare not, the half-breeds might be
trusted to acquit themselves like men.
The canvas awning constituted fiimsy
citadel in the center of the vessel. Six
men were stationed on the starboard side
of the promenade deck and six on the
port SIDE Tollemache and Chilean, who
said he could shoot well, were told ,to
Illustrate any attempt to climb the after
part of the ship, while Courtenay, with
his fowling piece, would have the lions
share of this work from the spar deck, az
he undertook to keep the rails clear for
ward and help the revolver practice ii
necessary. With him was Suarez, who
knew what was expected Of him, so THE
language difficulty offered no apparent
hindrance once the fight began. Finally
II the Indians made good their footing
the defenders were to rally toward the
saloon companion, where steam jets were
ready to squirt whitening blasts along the
corridors.

SERIOUS PORTUGAL PLOTS.
Hundreds of Bombs Seized by the
Police at Lisbon.

LISBON, November 22.-The investf-
cation Of the explosion of an Internal
machine here November IS, when two
anarchists who were manufacturing
bombs were killed, a third being ar
rested. has revealed the existence of a
far-reaching plot against the Dictator
ship. Over 700 bombs have been seized
and the police have made eight ar
rests. The machine which exploded
was intended for use In the San Carlos
Theater here.
Popular excitement is growing as a
result of the revelations: the censor
ship Is strict. All public meetings have
been forbidden and practically all the
newspapers in Lisbon are being prose-
cuted for attacks upon the king and the
pepal nuncio, and several have been
suppressed.
Senior de Cunha, president of the Por-
tuguese house of lords and wee presi-
dent of the Bank of Portugal. who for

Famine Threatens Lapland.

STOCKHOLM. Sweden, November 90
Famine conditions are threatening the
Vesternorrland and Vesterbotten districts
of Lapland, where deluging rains have
had disastrous effects on the crops. OH
cial advices say that the thrashed barley
weighs only 81 Kilograms barrel in
stead Of the usual 112; that bread baked
therefrom Is black and almost worthless
slaughtered to prevent the people from
dying Of starvation. The Swedish cabi-
net has been petitioned to remove the
duty on grain and TO take other steps In
order to alleviate the threatened starva-
ton.

Prospective Speaker Cannon Believes
That the Currency Famine Will

Prospective Speaker Joseph G. Cannon
OF the House Of Representatives arrived
last evening and will remain for the
coming session OF Congress, Mr.. Cannon
will confer with members Of Congress as
they arrive in regard to the organiza-
ton OF the new House. Mr.. Cannon out

as follows:
Many Currency Plans.
Many people have in mind that imme-
date legislation should be enacted touch
ing the currency question" said Mr.. Can
non. and there are almost as many
| schemes presented as there are individuals
to present them. There are. however.
very few. If any who could put in black
and white legislation amending our cur
rency laws that would be satisfactory to
the man who wrote the amendment or to
the great mass of the people. Congress will
meet on the second day Of December, and
the question of what legislation is prac-
ticable no doubt will be presented to both
House and Senate. ! do not care at this
time to suggest nay opinion in detail as to
what legislation should be enacted. I

ton, the corn, the wheat, the meats pro-
duced this year and now awaiting mar
ket1ng are of the value of at least ten bill
lions, and the people who produce these
products are substantially out of debt.
There Is a demand for the great bulk of
these products In the United States, and
there Is a demand for all that we have
to spare OF these products in the markets
of the world at extraordinarily high
prices. These products cannot start to
market because of the currency panic or
famine. They will begin to go to the
market the moment the banks resume
payment OF their obligations,
Waiting on New York.
New York-the great clearing house of
the United States-was the first to sus-
pend payment Of currency. 1t must be
the first to resume payment of currency.
apd the moment New York resumes that
will unlock the three thousand millions of
currency and thereby restore credit. In
addition to this. 1t will restore confidence
and credit. and as 90 per cent Of the
business Of the United States Is done on
credit, such restoration of confidence and
credit would at once be equal to twice the
whole volume Of our currency.
Il am led to believe that the deposit of
the public moneys in the banks under the
law, the importation Of gold from Europe
the rapid increase of national currency by
cooperation Of the Secretary Of the
Treasury ana the President, viii, in the
near future, enable New York to resume
payment OF currency, and the balance Of
the country will no doubt promptly follow
suit"

unfavorable condition Of the imperial

postpone the operation of the sinking

ment can be made. The report accom-
panying the budget emphasized the neces-
sity for the imposition of new taxes In
