Bryan on Prince Of Peace.

Washington, April 14.-William j.
Bryan addressed nearly 1000 persons
here today under the auspices of the
Y. M. G. A. and took for his subject
"The Prince of Peace" Mr.. Bryan
concluded with praises for the COL
leges and universities that have de-
clined to accept money from wealthy
men "whO have gained their riches
by dishonest means. F"
"One of our rich men," he said,
"has reached point where he some
times finds difficulty to find people to
take his money. And that | regard
as the best evidence of the growth of
moral sentiment in this country.
1t means something when great
church pauses, hesitates, refuses to
accept the money until it knows how
it was made. l believe the time will
come when churches and colleges will
refuse to go into partnership in the
spending of money immoralIy made.

Chicago, April 3.-This morning the

motion to Judge Lands in United

Beautiful Pauline Getreu's Hus-

Trio Of Marriages.

New York, April 2.-Pauline Get.
reu, a beautiful young woman Of Brook
Ign, is charged by her husband. Abra-
ham Getreu, with having been oscare-
less about her matrimonial affairs that
she has acquired three husbands since
1901 without the formality Of being
legally separated from any.
!. Getreu learned Of his wife's former
marriage through husband No. 2. While
riding with her on a Brooklyn 'L''
train he noticed a strange man raise
his hat rather stiffly and saw chances
between the two that he thought called
for an explanation. Mrs. Getreu de-
clined to explain. Later Getreu CHANGED
to meet the stranger alone and de-
manded to know who he was and why
he eyed Mrs. Getreu SO strangely.
MY name is Burnknap and the wom-
an is my wife," replied the stranger.
Words led to an understanding and
Burnknap proved his story by taking
Getreu to the rabbi who had performed
he ceremony In February, 1904.
Husband No. 2 let .Getreu In on an
other secret thai he protested to have
discovered, that Mrs. Getreu, born
Chaser, had eloped In December, 1901,
with a man named Morck. from whom
she had eve been divorced. All three
marriages had taken place In Brooklyn,
it is alleged, but the records fail to
show thai h courts were arnealed to
in an effort to unite the knots.

President in a Letter Reiterates That

Washington. D. c., April 3.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today declined the re-
quest of the Illinois Manufacturers as
ISOLATION to make an address in Spring
field on the railroad and financial stu.
alton. In a letter to @. H. Smith, the
president, he explains that such an adj
dress from him at his time would be
useless, as his position is well under
stood.
1t is reiterated that the president
has not the slightest intention of ak
ing n action which would ~invalidate
railroad securities.
He holds that every executive action
of his administration regarding the
roads has furnished it's own ample JUS
tifcation. Neither has the president, it
is pointed out, made any reference to
the physical valuation of the railroads,
holding that they are capable of work.

Attention is called to the fact that
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern have already submitted figures re-
garding such valuation. 1t is also I'M
derstood that the president will again
ask congress for power to deal with the
Decentralization question, which re-
quest was denied at the last session.

sages to congress.
Needs No Amplification.
His position, he declares, has been
amply justified by the course of events.
Its wisdom is obvious, he adds, and
there is no occasion for it's %amplifca-
ton now.
Quoting from his Raleigh address,,
the president calls attention to his be-
lief that the government should own
nothing which can properly be left in
private hands, but that such regula-
tons should be exercised against the
railroads as will insure their operation
in a spirit Of fairness. The railroads,
he declares, must be protected from
any public clamor, no matter how vio-
lent, when they are in the right. Re-
ferring to the Washington address,
the president says the railroad rates
are not as a Whole too high. but that
the evils that exist are due to unjust
discrimination and this should be pre-
vented by law.
