defense. all say that he has repeatedly
asked them why he is left penniless
and why the fund raised to bring his
wife and children from their hiding
place In Russia Is not put to the use
agreed upon.
Mrs. Bertha Siller lives In a little
house facing an alley behind 493 West
Van Buren, street. She went fror>
house to house to collect from friends
and neighbors, nickels and pennies at
time, $423.l7, which went to make up
,, part of the fund the Political Refu.
gees Defense League was compelled to
pay for publicity expenses.
One of the contributors to that fund
was DR.. Miriam Yampolski, an anar.
chist and member OF the Edelstadt
| group.
Mrs. Siller worked hard for six
weeks as an interpreter during the
RudOwitz trial. For this work she
received $l2, which was voted her by
the league when It was found that
she was about to be evicted because
she could not pay the rent of her
alley home. She was paid on the basis
of 81 week, while the stenographel
who sat next to her got 81 an hour
and much more in addition, Mrs. sill
er collected the money which went
to pay the stenographer.
Miss Jane Adams and Clarence s
DarrOw were both out of the city yes
terday. At the time Rudowitz was
first discovered TO be penniless, Miss
Adams said:
II had no personal interest In Hhis
case, but was simply fighting on prin
ciple to prevent the establishing OF q
dangerous precedent"
Judge Mack then said: II was In
terested only In the legal principle Of

and Miss Helen b. Megow, both o.
whom are Socialists.
Once the idol OF the uplift. Chris
tian Rudowitz yesterday was trampfng
the streets of Chicago looking for
work. He went down to South Chi
cago yesterday afternoon.
Since the time that he was freed
from the clutches of the Car the Let
tish peasant has been tramping the
streets OF the city at intervals. The
only financial assistance which he has
received from any OF those who so
eagerly defended him while the lime
light shone is $40 bill given him
by Raymond Robins. In addition, the
men who paid the expense of the up.
lift publicly have also dug into their
trousers for 5000, which helped 10
keep the wolf from the door.
Rudowitz found work for a few
weeks as laborer for the Chicago &
Northwestern. For time he was en-
ployed as a carpenter In the shops a.
West Pullman. Further than that his
jobs have been little odd ones that
he could pick up from day to day. He
went to West Pullman yesterday on
the strength of a rumor that his old
place was vacant and that he might
get IL back.

WASHINGTON. March 16.-Presi-

To the Senate and House of Rep
resentatiyes; 1 have convened the
congress in this extra session in
order to enable it to give immediate
consideration of the revision of the
Dingley tariff act Conditions af-

require a readjustment and re-

does not furnish income enough to
pay the authorized expenditures. BY
July l. next, the excess of expenses
over receipts for the current fiscal
year will equal S100,O00,0 900.
The successful party in the late
election is pledged to a revision
Of the tariff. The country. and the
business community especially, ex-

in the rates of import duties always

highest Importance that the new
bill should be agreed upon and
passed with as much speed as possi-
BILE consistent with it's due and thor
ough consideration. For these
reasons. I have deemed the present
to be an extraordinary occasion
within the meaning of the constitu-
tion, justifying and requiring the
calling of an extra session.
I'm my inaugural address I
stated in a summary way the prin-
ciples upon which, in my Judgment,
the revision of the tariff should
proceed, and indicated at least one
new source of revenue that might
be properly resorted to in order to
avoid a future deficit. 1t is not
necessary for me to repeat what 1

Il venture to suggest that the
vital business interests of the coun-

Fatherland's Capacity for Bat

Dramatic Speech by First Lord
of Admiralty Creates Sensa=
ton in Parliament

LONDON, March 16.-The dramatic
revelation by Reginald McKenna, first
lord of the admiralty, in parliament to-
day of Germany's extraordinary devel-
opment in her capacity. to build big
battleships rapidly seems likely to
mark crisis in Great Britain's naval
history. Quite certainly 1t will arouse
and alarm the country as to the pos
sibility of England maintaining naval
supremacy. It's effect was electrical
1t now seems that the government
will be strongly urged to make the
conditional" program for additional
Dreadnaughts an absolute building
program.
Il am forced to say" Balfour de-
clared. that now, for the very first
time in modern history, we are face
to face with naval situation so new
and SO dangerous that it is difficult for
us to realize all ittmports."
Balfour declared that according to
his information. which he challenged
McKenna to refute. Germany had laid
and that she was several months in
advance of her program. If Germany
continued at the same rate, he said.
the relative position of the two nations
in 1912 would be Great Britain 20
Dreadnaughts, Germany 21, or if the
Germans initiated Great Britain's new
policy of collecting materials for ar
manents beforehand, Germany would
have 25 Dreadnaughts.
FRESH ESTIMATES NECESSARY
The sensation caused by the debate
is reflected in all the editorials Wednes-
day morning irrespective of party. The
liberal organs make feeble at
tempt to justify the government S
program as adequate, but appar-
emily with considerable misgiv-
ing. The matter was warmly discussed
in the lobbies of the house, and the
general opinion was held that the gov
ernment would be obliged in the au-
tumn to introduce fresh estimates for
one or two conditioner Dreadnaughts.
The safety of the country stands
above all other sacrifices, and no mat
ter what the cost, the safety of the
country must be assured"
This was the ground upon which Nc
Kenna, first lord of the admiralty, JUS
titled the increase of nearly s15,O00OOO
in the navy estimates when they were
introduced by him in the house OF
commons.
SAYS SACRIFICES NECESSARY
mo one could suppose" went on Nc
Kenna, that the present government
assumed the responsibility of these es-
Inmates with a light heart, but there
are cases when even the most deter
mined economist would have to make
sacrifices"
1t was automatic, the speaker con-
tinued, that Great Britain should
maintain a navy sufficiently strong to
insure Britain's shores from invasion,
the empire from hostile attacks. and
trade from destruction during war.
The limits of the navy must be fixed
by the progress of foreign powers.
Several powers were rapidly develop
ing their naval strength at present,
but not one set pace to be compared
with Germany.

which was waged for so long time

How Injurious Conee Really Was.

Many persons go on drinking coffee
year after year without realizing that
ii is the cause of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
The drug-caffeine-in coffee and
tea is very like uric acid and is often
the cause of rheumatic attacks which,
when coffee is used habitually, become
chronic.
A washington lady said recently:
Il am sixty-flve and have had good
deal of experience with coffee. 1 con-
slider it very injurious and the cause of
many diseases. 1 am surep it causes
decay of teeth in children.

spells and still did not realize that cof-
fee could be so harmful, till about a
year ago 1 had rheumatism in my arms
and fingers. got so nervous l could not
sleep and was all run down.

did me no good, decided to quit coffee
