COMPLAINT IS FILLED.
Flour Mills of West Bring serioul
 Charges Against RaiIroads.

Flour Mills of West Bring sericus
 Charges Against Railr0ads.
 Washington, July 5.--A serious charge was made in complaint filed with the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion today against the Missouri Pacific and other Western railroads by corpor- ations, partnerships and individuals en- gagged in the flour milling trade of Ok lahoma, Kansas ana Missouri. It is alleged that an advance in rates on flour was made by the defendant com panies in revenge against the com claimants because of petition filed with the Interstate Commerce Commits sion a month ago that the railroads charged unjust and unreasonable rates to the Atlantic markets, as compared with the rates on flour and wheat from Minneapolis and other northwest ern points.
 The complainants request the com misison to issue an order to prevent inc rates from going into effect as if they should be compelled to pay the advanced rates even for a short time, the effect on their business would De disastrous They urge the commission to take prompt action because they are likely, on-account of the advanced 1, rates. to be barred from eastern mar kets. ., N The commission has indicated an in- tention to hear the merits of the case at the earliest possible date. It IS ex- nIafned that such action as the com mission may take will be retroactive so far as these particular rates are concerned and should the decision or inc commission be favorable 10 the complainants, the latter will have sooo rrounds on which to base action TOT reparation.

Lord,. Prepare Defence.

Threatened with practical extinction as a legislative force. the House of Lords Is preparing a vigorous defence. The best debaters and most brilliant men in the Upper House will be put in the fighting line, which will be com posed of peers who derive their nobility not from descent but from recognition of their own merit.
 This will be an effective answer to the old jibe about hereditary legisla- tors" which the Liberals have used so much in their campaign against the Lords.
 The Liberal Governments attack on the powers of the Lords will be met by a brilliant defence. Lord Curzon, whose peerage is an Irish one, without a seat In the House of Lords, may be given an English Peerage, and head the array of the Lords defence. The peers who have been made, not born, noble, include such great names as Cromer, Milner, Kelvin, Avebury (Sir John Lubbock) Lister, Raylelgh. Arm strong and Rothchilds,-all men who have earned their titles by their achievements in colonial administra- tion, in science, finance, or commerce.

Women Quit StrnddlInE.

The riding astride fad for women is losing its popularity. This season very few "equestrians" except very young ones are\seen in the Park using mems saddles Last season it appear ed as If the side saddle was becoming obsolete but now women who tried the masculine seat are returning to the old pattern of saddle and the old riding skirt.
 London riding masters do not think the astride seat for women will ever become general. It's only advantage, they say, is to give prettier limo to the figure. The side saddle, is in every way preferable because of the grip it gives in Jumping, hunting or hard riding.
 Riding astride brings into use particular muscles not usually de- developed in women, and 1t is also very rough on the insides of the knees.
 From the horses viewpoint, also, the side-saddIe Is best. if 1t is reversible. Ladies learn to ride both right and left. and change about from day to day.

German military authorities are greatly interested in the planned voyage of Count Zeppelfn's dirigible afr-ship from Lake Constance on the Swiss border to Wilhelmshaven, the naval port oh the North Sea coast which will be undertaken in the very near future. The distance between she two points is about 45O miles and fhe Count expects to cover 1t in about 20 hours.
 If he is successful the Government intends to buy the Counts airship and 1t will play a prominent part in the combined military and naval xnanoeuvres this fall.

KAISER UPSET AT A SCANDAL State Secrets Are Given
 AwaY.-
  WHY FRENCHMAN A SPY Emperor Lauds Son Whs Revealed the Plot.
}Hffort WfIl be Made to Induce Mrs. Russell Sage to Give Money
 te Stop White Slave Traffic.
pr WALTER DUNKIRK.

Berlin, July The Kaiser is con- eiderably more worried than most people imagine over the Eulenourg scandal which Is still almost the only xopic of conversation here.
 It ts not only the disappointment he fee1s in finding out the untrustworthi- mess of men whom he had come to con- Bider as true friends, that Is making Emperor William fret, as much as the fact that by his over-confidence with these men he has seriousy endangered the political and diplomatic interests If Germany.
 It is surely no exaggeration when It 1s said here that the Kaiser would glad 1y give one million marks out of his own pocket to know how much M Lecomte. former First secretary of the French Embassy in Berlin knows.
 Lscomte was recalled from his post at the request of the German Foreign Department. but this makes him none the less dangerous. as he will probably make the most of his knowledge of l German secrets and of the Kaiser's most cherished political ambitions.
 Prince Eulenburg admitted M Le- tcomte to membership of the Round , Table. by which means the First Secre- tary was brought into close contact with the Emperor and associated on free and easy terms. with Prince Eulen- burg's intimate friends.
 Relying on the Princes promise that the Kaiser could repose absolute faith on their confidence. His Majesty. when Expressed himself with perfect free- dom.
 It is now. stated that M. -Lecomte placing what he considered to be the Interests of His country above his ob- aigation to his host, frequently trans mitted the Emperor's words to Paris where they were read with far greater Interest than the reports of his chief M Bihourd. the Ambassador, who re- turned in March last.
 More than once. it is stated. the French Government based its treat rnent of delicate International affairs on Information which M Lecomte was able to supply through his connection with the Round Table.
 During the Morocco affair, 1t hap. pened that on sone memorable occas- sion M Bihourd.' when visiting ths German Foreign office, found thai Count Tschirsehky expressed a diff 6arent opinion fon an Important point in the controversy from that which thanks to M Lecomte, the Ambassador aknew was held by the Emperor.
 The German Foreign Minister mad, Enquiries. and found that M. Bihourt was correctly informed regarding the Emperors attitude.
 The incident has had only on, pleasant result-it has broken the ic, between the Kaiser and his oldest son the own-prince, who was the on, who told him of the whole affair with out q moments hesitation, although h. expected to be turned down by hi Father. who was at first loath to believ, anything.

To Educate Weak Children.

The ideal form of education for weakly children has been found by the municipality of Charlottenburg, a su- burb of Berlin. which has established an open-air school in the neighboring Grunewald Frest-
 Here all the children who are not fit for the ordinary course in the city public schools, are taught under the health giving pine trees, and have more play than work. There are swings to exercise the children who are not strong enough to run abut, with gym nastic apparatus for the more robust The teachers are all women, selected for their knowledge of child nature and their gentleness in dealing with weakly children.
 The Lord Mayor of London recently visited Berlin at the invitation of the municipality, inspected the Grunewald Forest school, and was shown the nov el sytem of teaching geography. The boys and girls are taught to dig out miniature rivers and build lilliputian mountains of earth. These are made to scale as models of real rivers and mountains, like the Rhine, the Ries- engebirge range. etc.
