T. ROOSEVELT TO VISIT
FRIEND W. HOHENZOLLERN
Ex-President Refuses State Enter
tainment and Will Exchange
Courtesies as Man to Man.

BERLIN. January c2-According to
current gossip In the German court cir
cles there has been friendly conflict be.
tween Emperor William and Col Theo-
dore Roosevelt regarding the way Col
Roosevelt is to be entertained during his
approaching visit to Berlin.
Col. Roosevelt is expected in Berlin
April % and will leave May 1, giving him
two DAYS in the capital.
AS soon as the emperor learned of Col.
Roosevelt's intended visit to Berlin, which
was made known in 1903. the emperor
invited him TO be a guest at the royal
palace at Potsdam, and receive series
of public honors. 1t was his desire to
treat the exPresident Of the United
States exactly like a crowned monarch
who was a guest in his domain.
Col. Roosevelt rebeIled at such an idea
and the emperor has been hopeful that
he would change his mind and at least
receive the public honors which he is anx-
ious to have paid to the distinguished
American. An end has been put to this
hope, however. by a recent decision of
Col. Roosevelt which has been made
known to the emperor.
The ex-President has insisted upon be-
United States. He will not be the recip-
lent Of any public honors. He will not
stay at the royal palace. but will stop
at a hotel and accept the kaiser's hos
pitality when he calls upon him at the
royal palace

The legality of the marriage OF Mise
Richardson to Brown was attec3ced by
relatives OF the dead man on tho ground
that a Virginia divorce which freed Mss
Richardson from a former marriage had
no legality in this jurisdiction. The con-
tenton was upheld by Justice Wright OF

on appeal to the Court Of Appeals. Miss

The Commissioners have recommended
unfavorable action on the bill to spend
$4,000 Of the Districts money for the
grading and improving of Pennsylvania

the District line The bill was introduced
by Representative Peafre.
The Commissioners recommendation
was based on the fact that the section
proposed for improvement runs through
an undeveioped part OF the District, and
because its terminus at the District line
does not connect with any line or travel
beyond that point
The Commissioners understand how
ever. that there is some talk in Maryland

will connect with Pennsylvania avenue

MARYLAND by an electric road over this
portion OF Pennsylvania avenue.

The Commissioners wrote to Repre-
sentative Smith OF the House District
committee on this point as follows:
After the completion of such railway
line. and OF roadway in Maryland
which will connect with this avenue q
the District line, 1t would be proper -
consider further the expenditure OF the
sum herein proposed for improving Penn
sylvania avenue, but at the present time
the Commissioners believe there Is no
warrant for such expenditure.
The Commissioners would also state
that IL any sum is appropriated for the
Improvement of this avenue. IL should
be paid one-half from the revenues Of the
District of Columbia and the other half
out of the moneys of the United States
