WEALTH TAKEN TO

Miss Arnold Says.

NEW YORK. Jan. 6.-Miss Ethel
Arnold. sister of Mrs. Humphrey Ward
who has just arrived on her second
visit to this country. sees the menace
Of the great American fortunes
brought into her country.
ITO say that the American girl as q

| Miss Arnold had much to say of the
recent visit Of the king Of Portugal TO
England In search of wife. Miss Ar
mold thought the eldest daughter OF
the Princess Royal, now Duchess Of
Fife. the only matrimonial opportunity
in the market, and II this was seri-
ously considered no one was permit
ted to know 1t. The Princess of Con-
naught was adjudged far too old
for the boy In the matter of religion
Miss Arnold saw the immediate OBJ
lection to Portuguese-English ALI
ance, for the British crown has felt
bitterly the deviation OF its daughters
from the established church. AS an
old friend Of the Asquiths. Miss
Arnold declined to discuss the affair
of the poet Watson and THE Woman
with the Serpents Tongue" OF the
suffragettes she said:
Since Mrs. Pankhurst has put OF
the role of the Nine. Sans-Gene OF the
suffrage movement and assumed the
red cap there is danger that every
minister erstwhile favorable to the
cause will consider II 'inexpedient.'
Both Balfour and Churchill will join
the ranks Of the disaffected. The

This Is the reason why have depre-

and everybody in England knows It.
The claims OF the suffragettes have,
therefore. the lack of a true appeal
Miss Arnold smiled over Mrs. An
MANI Bryce, who refused to return to
England to fight for her husbands
election because he did not believe in
women suffrage.
Il could not sympathize with her
point Of view, for a wife has so ex-
ceilent an opportunity Of making a
convert and could accomplish more
by her help than her antagonism."

sursents are on probation.
Upon their attitude towards certain
measures which the administration
will Try TO put through congress this
session will depend their sharing In
federal patronage. The Taft legisla
tive program must be put through no
matter what else happens.
This. In brief. Is the ultimatum
which has gone forth from the white
house. II was carefully explained at
the executive Offices today that the
holding up of federal patronage from
some OF the insurgent members OF
congress was not the result or their
opposition to "Cannonism' or AID
richism," or their attitude toward tho
tarif question but a move by the
president to forward the legislation
which he deems absolutely necessary
for the country. and to justify the Re-
publican party. President Taft Is de-
termined that the interstate commerce
law, and the conservation program
which he has mapped out must go
through, and in order to secure the
passage OF laws that will make his
position plain to the people he Is go
ing TO start the steam roller" over
a few belligerents who, by their bick-
erings In congress, threaten to inter-
fere with rapid legislation.
It Is the opinion of Postmaster
General Hitchcock, official chauffeur
OF the roller. that 1t is unreasonable
to expect the administration to ex-
tend to the insurgents the courtesy Of
patronage when there is good reason
to believe that after the appointments
are made. the congressman and Office
holders would use the power thus
given them against the administration
But the administration. according to
Hitchcock, will give the insurgents
chance to get back in the fold. He
stated that the prodigals might return,
be forgiven and share in the plums
without their previous dereliction be-
ing charged against them.
