GERMANY SEEKS
NEW ALLIANCES
Kaiser Realizes He's Lost
Prestige Among Nations,
Says Ambassador.
Twice Failed as War Lord.
Refusal of Peace Means
Trouble.

LONDON, Aug. 3.-"The permanent
peace of Europe depends far more on
the attitude that England and the Conu-
uent assume toward the recent friend
ship proposals of Kaiser Wilhelm than
any number Of Hague conferences.
This Is the opinion expressed today by
an ambassador Of one of the great pow
ers His name for obvious reasons
can not be used. Continuing he said:
The Kaiser is making the first peace
crusade of his reign. Ii must succeed
on there will be trouble. The Kaiser
realizes how his country has lost dIplO-
matte prestige through the ententes be
tween nations which leave Germany
out. England. France, Spain. and Italy
have eliminated the possibility of war
among themselves as far as human
foresight can do it. Japan's treaties
with England and France have placed
trouble in the Far East out Of the
range Of diplomatic possibility. Even
Russia Is Joining the international peace
movement by her new entente with
England.
Kaiser Sees Weakness.
-'The Kaiser sees he can not hold out
against the opinion of Europe. Hence
his desire to Join the peace movement
But before reaching this conclusion
he made two attempts TO once more
dazzle Europe as its war lord, although
this is not generally known. He asked
the Dutch government to pass Ger
man feet of torpedo boats through the
Mas river. his purpose being to snow
Europe that Germany could use the
rivers of another country as if they
were it's own. But Holland would not
listen to him.
Then he sought a strong defensive
and offensive alliance with Denmark.
Owing 10 the configuration OF the coun-
try. Denmark. by the judiciOus placing
Of mines, can control the Baltic sea.
Mines in the little belt, great belt. and
sound, with the commanding fortresses

Peace Circles Closed to Him.
In seeking peace the Kaiser is learn
ing how sadly his reputation for want

feelers PUT out in Paris and London
were far from fattering. Suspicious OF

evening ii is stated emphatically that
no decision has been reached that
William ]. Oliver is 10 be given the
contract for the construction of the
isthmian canal. Not only does the
announcement declare that Mr.. OH

For several days there have been
symptoms of a desire on the part OF
the president to have the government

this will very likely De done. The
statement of this evening indicates
that 1t is possible.

Rig Guns shoot out.

General William Crozier, chief of
ordnance of the United states army,
told the other day That our big -
inch guns. which carry a projectile
weighing 1000 pounds, with a We
locity of GOO feet a second for sew
eral miles, can be fired only GO or 65
times. After that number of rounds
the riding in the bore of the gun will
become obiiterated. There is diff
ference of opinion as to what causes
this; whether the contact with the
projectile wears it out, or whether
the intense heat caused by the COM
bustion of a large charge of powder
brings the skin of the metal nearly
to the melting point and, being in
that Utate. the rifling is washed
away by the rush of the powder it.
self. But anyway, after go rounds,
the projectile will not FOLLOW the RI
fling in the gun unless larger band
Of copper than usual is placed around
It. The projectile is made of steel
and is embraced by copper band
which, fitting into the riflng in the
bore Of the gun, causes its revolu-
ton BY enlarging this band the gun
may be made to last little longer.
1t can be fired perhaps a dozen times
more.

COOLIES BARRED
BY TREATY TERMS
Japan and United States Agree
on New Articles
California Must Treat Those in San
Francisco With Consideration
Hereafter.
IT is UP TO THE PACIFIC COAST.

Washington, d. c., Feb. Pres
ident Roosevelt has succeeded in me-
gotiating a treaty with Japan by the
terms Of which Japanese coolies will
be barred out of the United States
and American laborers will be ex-
Guided from Japan. The status of the
citizens Of each country residing in
the other at the present time will re-
main unchanged, but the prohibition
Of the interchange of the laIboring
element will be complete.
This treaty has been tentatively
agreed to by Japan, but there is a
string tied to the proposed ratifica-
ton. The Japanese insist that the
americans must treat the Japanese
in this country as fairly as the Jap
anese treat Americans in Japan.
They will insist upon some guaran zee
against unfair boycotts, mob violence
and discrimination.
In other words, If the people Of
San FranaiS'o viii consent t. ALLOW
japanese children of school age now
there to go to t's public schools la
pan will thereuron sign treaty ex-
Guiding all Japanese laborers from
the United States during the lie os
the treaty.
1t is now up to California. The
California delegation was at the white
house by appointment late this af-
ternoon and as a result of their con-
ference they telegraphed to the presi-
dent of the board of education of Sar
Francisco and to the superintendent
of schools asking them to come on to
Washington to hold conference
with the president and secretary OF
state.

EDUCATED ONE ANOTHER.


1t is a great thing for hundreds of
splendid young men from all over
the country to be thrown intimately
together at the age of the greatest
expectancy, when life promises so
much, at an age when youths are full
of hope and ambition, and feel strong
and vigorous. There is an untold ad-
vantage in the growth and expansion
which come from the constant measur
ling of mind with mind, the attrition
of mentalities, the measuring Of brain
power, the comparing of ability, Of
Experiences the tempering, the con-
slant drill in administering self
sacrifice. the constant prodding of
ambition, the squirting of tagging
energy. All these things are of I'M
told advantage.
l believe that the advantages of
mere book learning in college are
overestimated. That is, believe that
great deal of what IS attributed to
the studies themselves comes from
the association of the students.
We hear a great deal about the
development of personal power in
solitude; but while a certain amount
of this is necessary, yet there is no
substitute for the growth and educa-
ton which comes from intimate as
ISOLATION with human beings.
AS a rule, the men who pay their
own way through colleges are the
most successful because they are the
| most practical men. On the other
hand. every man who has to devote
Ia great deal of his time to paying his
way suffers an immense loss from the
/, lack of larger association with the
lstudents.
Many Of these men who work theil
way through college feel obliged to &c
directly from the classroom to theii
} own room. They can not enter into
J many of the sports with the other
} students because they are obliged tc
remain in their rooms and study dur
} ing evenings, Saturday and holidays
alike.
> ! believe that many college mer
owe more to what they get from theli
= fellow stuSelts than from theil
; studies. In saying this, ! do not I'M
, derestlmate the great value OF wha
comes from lectures and books; bu

course Of the college:z Success.

Up to Frisco Now.

The japanese question has now
reached the point where exclusion
can be had within few weeks and
the stream of Japanese immigration
into this country stopped for good
and all if san Francisco will consent
TO put up with the students already
in the schools and make the best OF
their presence there. There are So
few of these students in San Fran
cisco. and the objection has been SO
generally to those of mature age
that it is believed the people of the
Pacific slope will readily see the adj
vantage of selling upon this compro-
mise by means of which the Japan
csc question will be settled in the
speediest possible way.
1t would be impossible to get an
exclusion act through congress al
the present session.

Stop Rebates.

Some of the western railroads have

merce commission that they have
violated act to regulate commence
by refunding the fares paid by men
making trips to purchase livestock.
The railroads promised to refund the
price paid for tickets If the livestock
buyers shipped his stock within a
reasonable time over their lines.
Realizing that II was a plan not
provided for by any section OF the
law regarding rebates or refunds, the
railroads sought to escape legal lia
bility for following it by incorporat-
ing in their freight tariff a clause 10
the effect that rates quoted would
include the price OF transportation of
buyer OF cattle, as well as the free
transportation which law provides

companying shipments of livestock
and for their return to the point of
shipment.
The practice of refunding the
price of tickets purchased by buyers
Of livestock Is wholly unwarranted by
