One of the most remarkable pseudo
 international incidents on record for
 a long time was brought to close
 this week by the departure for New
 York of Mrs Ida Von Claussen, who
 came all the way from Sweden to see President Roosevelt about what she declared was a slight put on her by
 Minister Graves of Sweden. Mrs
 Won Claussen was never heard of
 except by limited circle of friends
 till the present incident arose. She
 was rich, very beautiful, and elegant
 ly dressed. While in Sweden she
 wanted to be presented at court, but
 for some reason, the official one was
 lack of proper credentials, she was
 not presented by our minister. She
 was very much incensed at what she
 termed this slight. and came all the way to Washington from Sweden to present her case personally to the president. She took quarters at the most expensive hotel in town and
 prepared to. lay siege to the white house in her latest Paris gown. But right in the ante-room, her person. ally conducted embassy begged down to the hubs and stopped. The presi- dent was busy, very; the secretary to the president was also busy, ex- eessively. The secretary to the sec- retary was buster still, and the most that Mrs Van Claussen could do was to send in card by a messenger and be told that there was no use in com ing back, and that the whole of the white house stan would be too busy to see her at any time. She stayed in Washington three days and tried to get a commission in lunacy ap- pointed to inquire into her own san- ity. But the president declined to take any of her demands seriously and she left town, vowing that she was going to Germany and her American citizenship. How the kaiser will make out with this fascinating but imperious sub iect is question. ...

If the United States Is forced to go back again and take charge of affairs, it is serious question whether 1t may not decide to stay permanently, if not annexing the island, at least keeping such strict hand on affairs that 1t will virtually amount to annexation.

BAN JOHNSON IN CHICAGO.
Chief of American League Discusses
Umpire Evans Injury.

Chicago, Sept. 20.-Ban B. Johnson,
president of the American Baseball
league, has returned from a trip to ST.
Louis, made for the purpose of investi-
eating the bottle-throwing episode and
to urge the prosecution of the boy who
threw the bottle which injured Umpire
Evans
Umpire Evans is not out of danger
yet and will not be for four five days,
so the doctors attending the injured
man informed me last night just before
left" said President johnson. 1.-The
skull is fractured and there is a deep
cut over the right ear, where the bottle
hit him. The scalp was badly lacerated
by the fragments of the broken bottle
1t struck Evans just above the ear in
stead of at the base of the brain as
some of the newspapers have printed.
The fracture of the skull is not bad
one, but the ragged edges of the glass
have torn the scalp frightfully.
Il have engaged an attorney to prose-
cute the case and we will ask for the
severest penalty possible as lesson to
dence that this boy, Hugo Dusenberg,
threw two bottles intead of one. The
first one passed over Evans head less
than foot. The crowd made a demon
stration against the boy then, but
despite it's warning he hurled another
one. which hit Evans. 1t was the most
coWardly act one could imagine and if
it was my own brother 1 would prose-
cute him to the bitter end. 1 will ask
that the st punishment for the
offense be melted out"
Mr.. johnson gave his reason for dis
missing Umpire Stafford from the force.
Stafford was wholly incompetent
and I have had complaints from the
managers all season as to his bad judg-
ment. / told him last Saturday that
his services were no longer needed.
had made up my mind not to employ
him next year anyway, and as the race
in the American league is so close right,
now did not want to take any chances
with him umpiring a game and defeat
ing any club by bad decisions. There
are many specific cases against him.
One in particular happened in Washing
ton when his decision at first lost the
game for Boston.
Il had already appointed Egan to take
his place before the injury occurred to
Evans, so that Egan too Evans place
at once. 1 have nothing to say against
as to his honesty. He probably
made these bad decisions in the belief
that he was right"

Word was received at the local

ing the first visit of Topeka. 1t was
the second game of the series when
Hurlburt. who was playing with the
White Sox at that time attempted to
score from third base on a passed
ball. The grand stand at Wichita is
closer than it is in Topeka and the
ball bounded back sufficiently to al
low Bayless. catching for Wichita, to
throw the ball to- Young in time to
nab Hurlburt at the plate and pre-
vent run which would have tied the
game. The grand stand is not the
regulation distance of ninety feet be-
hind the home plate and the run
should have been allowed. president
