COURTS FEAR OCCUET LAWYER
Judges investigating Practitioners AL
legged Hypnotic Powers.

DENVER, Dec. 15.-The United States
District Court wants to know whether
Attorney Ben B. Laska is real hypnotist,
whether his appearance in the court is
dangerous to Justice and whether 1t is
safe to have q lawyer around who can
cast a spell over jurors and court at
taches.
For this purpose a committee named by
the bench met this afternoon to take evil
dence concerning Laska's powers. The
committee is headed by Judge Knaebel
and before II was summoned all Judges
OF courts before whom Laska has ap-
peared. The committee wants TO know
whether these Judges or their jurors ever
fell under the compelling glance Of Laska.
It Is the first time in the history Of
American courts that the machinery Of the
law has ever limited that II felt itself
insecure because Of occult powers.
The broad charge is made that a man
who Is hypnotist has no business In the
legal profession and the witnesses sum-
moned are those who have had an oppor-
tunity to watch Laska In court.
Laska was long palmist and clair
voyant, but is now practising attorney,

Special Cdbt DsSpdfch 10 THk sun.
LONDON, Dec. i5.-The English pro-
hibitionists have decided not to associ-
ate themselves with Carrie Nation. This
is resolved on ostensibly because she
confines her action to saloons, while they
aim at the whole drink traffic. from the
manufacture downward. but actually
because they fear the risks her tactics
involve. The prohibitionists. however. are
looking forward to a strenuous campaign
with the aid OF the American prohibit
tionists, who will attend the worlds
Anti-Alcohol Congress in June next year
Carrie Nation is carrying on her CAM
paign in Glasgow very warily. She has
visited a few bars. but she has passed
many. She was followed everywhere
by a considerable crowd and by police
men. She says the Scotch devil is the
same as the American devil. The same
old devil is everywhere. but is more ram
pant in Scotland than in America.
The drink traffic in Scotland is more
strongly entrenched in the church than
it is in America. She has seen more
poverty stricken women carrying babies
in Glasgow in two days. she says, than
she has seen in her lifetime in america.

With AssAult-OtheF Eseapatles,

WARRINGTON, Dec. i5.--Formal com
plant has been made by Harley E. Chese-
brough, letter carrier. that Roger Wet
more, son of Senator Wetmore Of Rhode
Island, attempted to assault him with ca
heavy walking stick on the morning of
November 10. and but for his quiokness
and the Intervention of Wetmore's COM
panlons he would have been seriously
injured.
The complaint is now under investiga-
ton. The charge, that of having inter
fered with and assaulted United States
mail carrier engaged in the collection
Of the mail, il proved in court, carries
with 1t fine Of from 500 to 81 .00O, for from
one to three years in the penitentiary.

ALGIERS MUTINEERS GERMANS.
Agency Corrupting French Foreign Le-
gton-AH Captured Except Leader.

Special Cdbt Despatch 10 THE SUE.
ALGIRRs, Dec. I5-All the mutineers Of
the Foreign Legion In southern Ora n
with the exception Of their leader have
been arrested. As told in yesterdays
despatch, these men seized a train and
compelled the engineer to haul them in
the direction Of the Moroccan frontier
Apparently their intention was to reach
Morocco. where they believed they would
be safe from pursuit.
The plan went wrong, however, and the
zouaves who were sent in pursuit Of the
mutinous party rounded them UP and
brought them back. All the privates who
rsvolted are said to be Germans
An investigation Of the causes that led
to the mutiny is said TO have revealed
proof that an agency directed by Germans
had been at work for some time In Al
ksFia, lis object being 20 bring about
desertions OF the legionaries. The au-
thorities are trying to..aseertain what part
this agency played In recent events.
The chief Of the mutineers, 1t is stated,
had been a Bavarian officer. and he 10
said to have declared that he would
rather commit suicide than surrender.
II IL believed that the intention Of the
mutineers In forcing the engineer OF the
seized train TO return from Modzbah
to Oran was TO avoid pursuit by the
garrison at Ain-el-Hadjar. After they had
left the train at Modzbah they broke with
the butts Of their, rifles tho legs Of one OF
their comrades who refused TO go any
further with them. This wes done with
the object OF preventing him from reach
ing post where he could denounoe them.
IL Is admitted that the head Of the mu-
tinsers had an agreement with native
posts within seven kilometers OF El-
Beida and that provisions for the mutt
neers had been prepared at these posts

KAISER WOULD SELL CASTLES.
Five That He Never Uscs on the Market
Cutting the Cost OF Imperial Pomp.

Special Cable Despatch 10 THE SUN
BERLIN. Dec. I5.-The public criticism
Of the Kaiser's desire for an increased
civil list and Of the enormous expenses
OF imperial pomp seem to have the effect
Of inducing William to retrench. 1t is
assumed that this is the reason for the
announcement that five OF the imperial
castles are for sale.
They are places the Kaiser never uses.
but they involve large expenditure
for maintenance. Jagerhof, near Dussel-
dorf; Benrath in Westpha6a. Stolzenfels
and Bruhl in the Rhenish provinces and
Ermannsdorf in Silesia are the castles
offered for sale
II is believed in view of the large sum
that will be derived from the sales and
the saving effected that the proposal
to increase the civil list will be abandoned.
