HELMSMAN browns
AT HIS POST OF DUTY
Two Bodies Recovered From
Wrecked French Submarine

CALAIS, France, June 11.-Thes man
ner of the sinking of the French sub
marine Pluviose was revealed today
when the superstructure emerged at
low tide. A rent Is feet long and 2
feet wide was found in the stern,
where the submerged craft had been
struck by the channel steamer Pas de
Calais. Two bodies We're recovered
before the rising tide again closed over
the wreck
The Pluviose was sunk with her crew
of 81 men in the English channel two
miles off the French coast on May %.
Since that time wreckers have been
engaged at every high tide in towing
the submarine ashore. 1t was impos-
sible TO raise the wreck TO the surface.
Today in the shallow water the su-
perstructure rose to view and the first
thorough examination was possible.
The body of Helmsman le Breton. clad
In oilskins, was found at his post in
the steering tower. The trap door
leading from the tower to the COM
partment below was closed. A second
body had been recovered when the re-
turning tide forced the suspension of
operations.
AS it is now established that the hull
is filled with water. holes will be
drilled through the plates to make pos
sible the removal of the other bodies.

street car lines. canals, or other work
of the kind have to be brought before
committees of both houses of parlia-
ment.
AS millions of money sometimes de-
pend on these fights between rival
corporations the lawyers who repre-
sent them are more highly paid than
any other section of the legal pro-
fession. Sir Alfred Cripps for many
years was the leading figure in the
parliamentary bar, as il is called, and
made a gigantic income.
1t is, however, one of the disabilities
OF this branch of the legal calling that
the parliamentary lawyer has to
abandon parliamentary practice as
Lament. The late Sir William Har-
court gave up $4,000 a year of income
as a parliamentary barrister when he
began the parliamentary career that
was to be so illustrous. Similarly,
Sir Alfred Cripps had to abandon an
even larger income when he was elect
ed to the house of commons.
PLAN FOR CONFERENCE
He is. it will be seen, then, man
Of note, and his words carry some
weight. His suggestion is that the
deadlock caused by the inequality of
parties in the house of lords should
two houses in which presumably the
tories and liberals in the house of
lords should be represented, not as in
the house itself by more than II to 1,
but by something approaching equal
ity Such a conference might come
to an agreement and liberal legislation
might have some chance, which it
hasn't now.
But the objection to this proposal is
that it comes after all only from a
private and unofficial spokesman, and
nobody yet knows how far it repre-
sents the views of the men who really
count. like Lansdowne and Balfour.
What. however, rather weakens the
position of the liberals is that every
body ra ther shrinks from either of two
plans: First, from making the house
of lords quite impotent, for English
men are too conservative to like one
chamber government, and, secondly
the even stronger objection to the
creation of 500 brand new peers. The
English are not revolutionary in
spirit and therefore they will be in
clined TO grasp at any compromise
which viii save them from revolutions
ary action.

INJECTION REVIVES
EXHAUSTED energy
Berlin Specialist Discovers 3
Substance Called Spermin,
Which Produces Vigor
Especial Gable 10 The Call

BERLIN, June 11.-Professor Loewy
of the Berlin agricultural high school,
a famous specialist. has discovered that
"a substance called spermin injected
under the skin removes the symptoms
of exhaustion.
Some trained dogs were set like pris-
oners to run everlastingly uphill over
an electrically driven treadmill. They
were kept at this until the beasts
looked ready to drop with exhaustion
and the chemical tests showed that the
drain on what constitutes energy in
dogs and men was too great TO be
longer maintained
Then the professor injected large
doses of spermin under the dogs hide.
In three experiments the immediate re-
suits were a great recovery from eX-
haustion and the dogs were set to
work again on their treadmill and
trotted off, if not as fresh as ever, yet
distinctly no longer -oyertired.
Why spermin produces this extraor-
binary effect Professor Loewy has not
yet aScertained.

CONSTANTFNOPLE MAY
BE CLEARED OF DOGS
ProwIing Street CANNES Ma
Longer Held in Favor

CONSTANTINOPLE, June LIE
imagine COnstantinOple without its
hordes of prowling street dogs is difs
ficult. but the authorities OF the Ottos
man capital have started in earnest td
rid the city of one OF its most notori@
Gus features.
Last year a contractor offered to pay
the Turkish treasury a lump sum fot
the privilege OF clearing the city
streets of dogs. What he wanted "a
do with them was not made known,
Perhaps he expected to recOup himself
by selling the skins for gloves. Any4
how his proposition met with no favor.
Today the Turks would have gladly
accepted his proposal, but no dog buys
ers were forthcoming. so they tackled
the question themselves.
DetachmentS of policemen and
sweepers armed with lassOes and
wooden tongs and followed by a train
of dustcarts have gone forth by night
and raided the unSuspecting beasts.
A few were spared at the intercession
of individuals. who agreed to look
after the dogs The others were driven
away TO an unknown fate.
At the time of the Russo-Turkisi1
war a large number of dogs were COLI
Iected and put on Bulwer island. one
of the Princes islands in the sea OF
Marmara. so called after a former
English ambassador who once owned a
country house there. No one took care
of the starving creatures and the re-
suit was that they began to devour
each other before the work OF trans-
porting the whole canine contingent
was complete. Then news came of a
crushing defeat of the Turks.
The sultan took IL as a sign OF di-
vine wrath and FASTENED TO sign an
order for the exiles to be taken back
to town. Lately they have been a
greater nuisance than ever. No ona
will shed tear over their disappears
ance, save perhaps travelling story
writer's. who have always found thu
dogs of COnstantinople a handy sub
ject.

These dispatches set forth that He
brews are not even permitted to re-

these places necessary. One dispatch
says:
The police in the province of

Every Jew unable fully to- establish a
right of domicile is arrested Many
Jews are hiding in the surrounding

p0vAI TRAD[D Trust Managed by Friend of [0D[|GM N[MQ
hUIHL I\HU[A Kaiser Buys Berlin Hosery UnLlUlv 1.-TWO
GERMAN EMPEROR
TO MANAGE Hotel
Princes Trust With Many En-
terprises Directed by Inti-
mate Friend of Kaiser
Especial Gable to The ColIl

BERLIN, June 11.-Versatile EN-
peror William. having tried his hand
at almost everything else, is going to
manage hotel. At least that is ths
inference from the we'll authenticated
report that he has become financially
interested in a leading caravansary in
/ Berlin.
When the emperor made the recent
cruise to Helgoland on a battleship
he took as guests 100 fnanciers and
members of the German nobility en-
gagged in business. 1t is now under-
stood that the voyage was made in
the interest of the so called princes
trust. which was formed and is di-
rected by the emperor's most intimate
friend, Prince Max Egon Furstenberg.
That syndicate has many and diversis
| ned enterprises. from great landed es-
tateS TO city lots, from steamship lines
to street railways. from breweries to
department stores, from ancient castles
to modern fashionable hotels. The
princes trust owns the hotel In which
the emperor has taken stock.
Williams qualifications for hotel
keeper were developed as an imperial
host and he is very punctilious. Ger.
man court etiquette requires that
man invited to a luncheon at the pals
ace must wear special white tie and
frock coat.
When the emperor and empress enter
all rise to their feet in silence and
remain standing until their imperial
host permits them to resume their seats
by wave of the hand.
The kaiser is very precise about his
table setting and frequently plans this
menus himself. The imperial table at
POtsdam is probably the only one in
Europe that is never graced by a
French menu card. Emperor William
favors the more comprehensive if less
appetizing native phraseology.
The style OF the table decorations Is
always the same. roses being the only
flowers the empress will tolerate. Wins
is the sole beverage French chams
payne is avoided and guests are re-
quired to converse in an undertone.

EDWARDS FUNERAL IN
CONTRAST TO OTHERS
Violence Often Marked Demise
of Sovereigns

LONDON, June 1.-THE peaceful
death and ceremonious funeral of King
Edward are in marked contrast to the
scenes of violence and shame that have
attended the demise of most English
sovereigns
There is proud epitaph over the
grave of the first William. but the
monument covers only one thigh bone.
When the funeral procession was MAX
ing its way through Caen a fire broke
out in the town, and all was brought
to confusion. Only q few monks es-
corted the body into the church.
Then it was found that the coffin
had been made too short for the mas
sive. body. Nor did the red king. who
destroyed many a church and church
yard in his life, find rest for his bones
in death. After his burial at Win
chester, a tower fell crashing on his
tomb-in Judgment, as the people
thought, for his sins Twice in later
years his bones were exposed and
thrice they were removed.
No fragment remains of the tomb
of the first Henry.
Stephens grave was robbed for the
sake of the lead that was his shroud.
and his remains were cast to the waves.
Henry II died at Chinon, and his
courtiers stripped his body, leaving 1t
naked and exposed to public gaze
at Rouen. Queen Victoria was reign
ing when it was found and examined
a poor shrunken heart. looking like a
dead red leaf.
When the second Edward was murl
dered 1t was not until three monas-
teries had refused to receive his body
that it found rest at last at Glouces-
ter.
The third Edward died alone and

died miserably in prison.
Henry VI was believed to have been
murdered. And when Edward ", the
first king of the house of York, died,
history says, This body was exposed
on a board, naked from the waist up

see that he had not died by violence"

when the Princess Anne was laid in
the vault at Westminster no monument
or memorial marked her tomb.

The Republicans of Missouri have
not been permitted to elect State
Senators from territory in which they
are in the majority except where it
has been impossible for the Demo-
Gratis to so arrange senatorial districts
as to prevent the election of Republi-
can candidates. The senatorial dis
tricts have never been reformed by
the legislature since the present con-
stltution was adopted in 1875, al
though that instrument makes it the
duty OF the legislature to rc-district
the state at the end OF every period
of ten years. In order to secure a
gerrymander OF districts such as no
legislature would agree to the Demo-
cratic leaders succeeded in 1881,
1891, and 1901 in defeating re-dis-
tricting bills in the legislature, thus
throwing the work into the hands of
the Governor, Attorney General and
Secretary of State who we're, in every
case, partisan Democrats. As the
State Senate will doubtless be con-
trolled by Democrats next year and as
the Attorney General and Secretary
of State are Democrats the same pro-
cess may be followed ugain unless the
proposed constitutional amendment
be adopted, and the senate may thus
be continued under control of the
Democratic leaders of the state for
the next ten years though the state
should be Republican by $4,000 ma
jority. This manifest injustice, this
outrageous partisan advantage can
not be complacently accepted by any
fair minded citizen, and cannot be
tolerated by the Republicans of the
state.
