may command.
Another squad of regulars led by Taw-
ney, Republican, Minnesota). chairman of
the House appropriations committee which
framed the bill, is supporting the measure.
The secret of the strange lineup is that

NOTABLES HEAR
MR.. ROOSEVELT
Former President Speaks at
the University Of Berlin
GERMAN NEWSPAPER
MEN TRY TO PUMP HIM

CBy a STAFF Correspondent Of the
United Press.)
BERLIN, May 12-Bright sunshine
and warm weather came TO the aid of
Mr.. Roosevelt to-day and did more to-
ward Strengthening out his throat than
all the treatment he has undergone.
The improvement not only put the Col
onel in fine mood but made it possible
for him to deliver his lecture at the
University of Berlin.
Emperor William to-day presented
Roosevelt with four large water colors,
illustrating the changes in the German
army uniform since 1860. The paintings.
which are the work of famous German
artists, are fully explained i'm notations
made by the Kaiser himself.
Roosevelt is still enthusiastic over
the manouvers held at Doeberitz yes
terday and the five hours spent with
the Kaiser in reviewing the operations.
The Colonel, however. is paying the
closest attention TO foreign etiquette
and saying nothing that could be con-
strued as an expression Of opinion.
German newspaper men, realizing
that something intensely interesting
must have passed between the former
President and the Kaiser as they rode
together at Doeberitz. have tried to
pump" Roosevelt. but in vain.
There was significant hoarseness I'm
the Kaiser's voice to-day which shows
that under the inspiration OF yesterday
meeting with the Colonel he threw his
usual decorum TO the winds.
Before a distinguished audience at the
University of Berlin to-day. Mr.. Roose-
welt delivered the third OF his European
lecturers on "The World Movement" The
Kaiser. Crown Prince Wilhelm, Chancel-
lor Won Bethmann- Iiollweg. Foreign Min.
lister Van Schoen, most of the other min.
listers and many from the ranks of Ger
man royalty were in attendance, the audi
ence being probably the most distinguish
ed ever addressed by foreign lecturer
The address was a critical study of Tho
growth and spread of civilization IN Eu
rope. with particular reference to Ger
many's part i'm the movement. II wa
not what could be called a popular lee

Managers Should Get
Outside Assistance

Tho address made by Lewis =. Bush.
vco-presdent OF tho Delaware Hospital.
at tho commencement exercises e.. tho
graduating class OF IN hospital training
school, held on Monday evening gives
some idea of the extensive work done by
tho hospital. Mr Bush declared that City
Council should give assistance 10 the VIII
mington hospitals so tnat the financial
burdens OF the institutions would not have
TO be borne by few persons. His re-
marks along that line viii probably re-
new the agitation begun sometime ago
when President of Council Banning In
an interview said he thought the hospitals
should receive financial assistance from
tho city.
/ In the course Of h.s remarks Mr.. Bush
In part said;
There have been received into the
wards and private rooms Sl7 patients,
and there have been treated in the dis.
pensary 5.G6, making total OF d,ssS who
have been treated IN the hospital during
the year. The number OF days servic'
was 1900. Of these 500 were given alb
solutoly free, and for which the hospita
did not receive one cent IA return, bu
on the other hand expended for the fre
lpatients Si3125.63. which amount does no
} include whatever was expended In the dis
, ponsary. Tho total cost Of maintainin
teh hospital for the year was $23326.i5.

une-half of the daily service and MOI
\ THAN onc-half Of the cost Of meintenan'

not right to expect the citizens Of Wi

President Charles w. Fairbanks of In

to-day as a possibility for the ambas-
.sadorship at the Court of St. James
TO succeed Whitelaw Reid.
II is reported that President Taft
had written a letter to Fairbanks un-
officially offering him the post. Since
Taft's Inauguration there has been
scarcely any doubt that he would name
a successor to Reid. The social re-
sponsibilities of the British post, il is
generally recognized, demand a man
of wealth.
Fairbanks has been offered several

including the ministry to China. and a
