 Herr Straus' views on American managers may become still more cry stallized when he hears the quoted words of his latest New York i'm presario. MT. Whitney:
 " Arms and the Man. Straus' new operetta that have secured for
 America? What is it? Well, being an operetta, | suppose it is legs and the girls"
 But as the composer himself is com | ing over, he may be the one, this time, to make amoutations.
 "In the autumn I shall go to New York" said Herr Straus that afternoon on the Danube. ''I have been invited to conduct at the Irving Place Theater.
 'The original text of a new operetta that I am at work on is by SardOu. La Marquise' I have retained for it one of the librettots of "A Waltz Dream and engaged an unknown writer in whom I place reliance to assist him. "I do not believe in always employ ing the same librettistr any more than l believe in making the libretto in re- hearsal; the desk is the place for such things.
 Bernard Shaw No, have never met him, though in London I had the opportunity to do so. I hear he is
 very eXtravagant type of person,
 and as I was writing the music to
 a libretto on his comedy, Arms and the Man. it seemed wiser not to
 make his acquaintance" Need it be repeated that Herr Straus is a man of thought?-William Armstrong in November Ainslee's.

TO THE VOTERS FOR JUSTICE OF
 THE PEACE

Having been confined to my home all most continuously with lagrippe since nomination for justice of the peace. I find that it will be impossible for me Ito see the voters of the district before election, and am obliged to invite your support through the press.
 I appreciate the importance of the office, and can assure the citizens. if elected, the duties shall be impartially and economically administered.
 I understand that it has been urged against my election that I was not favorable to the city owning it's water works. That is not true I was i'm movably opposed to the city building and attempting to run water works in opposition to the water works already existing. I was, and always have been. in favor of the city buying the company water works, and that is what the city has done. l trust no further explaina- ton is necessary.
 Very respectfully submitted.

Hundreds of people who never existed were regis tered supposedly from canal boats and from dozens of lodging houses that cannot be found, many names were turned in. Chief Thomas promises a thorough investigation of the whole af fair, and many arrests will probably follow.

Railroad Attorneys Decide That Recent
Decision Covers 0nly Pssalty (,
Feature Of Law.

st. Paul. April a. = That the rail
roads will take no action at present
toward restoring the Scent passenger
fare In Minnesota is practically as
sured from the conclusion reached at
conference Of the attorneys Of the
railroads having headquarters In st.
Paul. While no announcement has
been made Of any direct decision on
this question, 1t follows from the con-
illusions Of the attorneys that the re-
cent decision of the United States gu.
preme court held invalid only the PEN
atty feature Of the Minnesota rate
laws and does not cover the entire
laws. a.
The railroad lawyers as we'll as the
states attorneys were not clear at
first as to the scope of the decision.
but both have now reached the same
conclusion. There was a general
agreement at the conference of the
railway attorneys that while the pen.
atty feature of the law has been de.
clared unconstitutional, the question
remains to be determined whether
the rates themselves are just.
The situation regarding the 2-cent
fare, therefore, has not been changed
by the decision, and SO far as Minne1
sofa is concerned the railroads are in
no better position to restore the old
fare than they were before the deci4
sion. Whatever is done in other
states, nothing is likely to be done in
Minnesota at present.

\, ling Contest for Worlds
Title At Chicago.
GloTCh'S Dtf1NSf Is PfRftC1
After Two Hours Of Uaavailing Tsgging
and Scrambliag the Russian
Lion Gives Up.

Chicago, April 5.-George Hacken'
schmidt quit in his match with Frank
Gotch for the catch-as.catch.can
wrestling championship of the world
last night. giving the title to the Iowa
man by default.
After more than two hours Of un-
availing stugging and desperate scram.
bling. the Russian said to Gotch:
"Ill give you the match" f
Referee Smith at once declared
Gotch the winner. The end came so
unexpectedly that the great crowd Of
5000 which witnessed the contest
could scarcely comprehend what had
happened. Not until the referee had
announced that Hackenschmidt had
Surrendered the championship of the
world to Frank Gotci did the full sig
uificance Of the event strike home.
h. Goteh's Defense Perfect.
Then the excited men swarmed into
the ring, surging about Gotch, until
the police came to his rescue and
drove the crowd back through the
ropes. The. match was in some re-
spects sensational, but it served main
ly to show that Gotch has a defensive
system which no one can break down.
For an hour and forty-five minutes
he e!uded every attempt of the Rus
sian lion to fasten a grip on him.
Gotch side.stepped, roughed his mans
features with his. knuckles, butted
him under the chin and generally wor-
ried Hackenschmidt until the foreign
er was totally at loss how to pro-
coed. FL .
Hackensehmidt Gives Up.
But when, in the clinch that finally
came, Gotch slammed his opponent to
the mat and came within an ace of
securing a firm toe hold. following
this up by lifting Hackenschmidt clear
Of the mat and slamming him on his
shoulders with terrific force, the Euro
pean exponent was heartbroken. The
lines slowly deepened on his face, the
boots and gibes Of the crowd hurt his
feelings and after considering the mat
ter for few seconds he decided that
it was time to quit. Few of the. spec
tators but were willing to- give Gotch
the palm. The Iowa farmer was in
the better condition. was quicker and
trickier, and showed a far better
knowledge Of the game.
