judges. The fault, he declared, is In the
practice OF judges of the Court of
Special Sessions in dealing with offend
ers before them for the third time. ''1n
such cases" he said. "the law is ex
'plicit There is no alternative. Third
offenders must go TO Jail. When the
Legislators passed that law they in

taken seriously. The Special Session
Judges seem to take it otherwise"
These third offenders, according to
Magistrate Cornell. escape in this man.

law: The District Attorneys office has
for several years usually allowed them
TO plead guilty of second offences and
thus escape with q fine. and when an Of

ends ar p. m.
This attitude of tenderness on the part
of the District Attorney and of the
Judges of Special Sessions toward auto
mobile speeders is impossible to explain.
Certainly they do not soften the rigors
of the law out of regard for public
opinion, and no tenderhearted jury in
tervenes with it's ideas of what the law

UNIFORMITY AND DIVERSITY.

NfI OhHIf AND III LhCiI I.
The movement for uniformity in state
laws appears TO be gaining force. as in
deed ii should do, for there is diversity
in state legislation where there is not
shadow of excuse for diversity. What
purpose. for example. is served by having
different laws in different states regard
ing bills of lading and the other 1nstTu-
ments by which commerce is carried on?
Surely the explanation is not that some
states have progressive views as to legis-
iation Of this kind, while other have
reactionary views. Yet though the agits-
tion for uniform laws has been kept up
for many years. and thirty-eight states
have been induced 10 adopt "A uniform
negotiable instruments law, only eight
have agreed upon warehouse receipts
act and only five upon q sales act
These topics of legislation stand in a
class apart from those of a social or
political nature on which fundamental
differences Of opinion exist in different
parts Of the country IT is not surpris-
ing. for example. that after all the at
tention which has been concentrated
upon the subject only four states have
been brought 10 accept parts" of the
proposed uniform marriage and divorce
law. 1t is hard TO conceive of South
Carolina as ever being of one mind with
South Dakota regarding divorce.
There is another class OF legislation
which is both commercial and, in its
present stage, political, in which uni
formity is as desirable as il is regard
ing the mere instrumentalities of com
merce and as difficult TO obtain as it is
iD regard 10 subjects like divorce and
child labor. Differences in the Tegula-
tive requirements OF different states af
fecting railroad. insurance and indus
trial corporations are as much Of an
obstacle to commerce as are differences
in the laws regarding bills of lading and
negotiable instruments, but while the
temper of the country upon the questions
varies as much as it does in Oklahoma,
Texas and Wisconsin, on the one hand,
aid Connecticut. New Jersey and Rhode
Island on the other it is hard TO see
how uniformity can be obtained. Uni
formity should be the aim in this class
of legislation. but il is not to be for
gotten that there has been a certain
advantage TO the public in the very
diversity that has obtained. The ex-
periments of the more progressive states
have been instructive to others. Even
the federal government probably learned
something regarding railroad regu-
lation from Wisconsin and other pioneers
times teach what to avoid. The coun-
try is indebted. for example, TO Okla

A 5fYsTERI0Us DISEASE.

From the fact that the earliest cases
of pellagra observed in this country were
reported from South Carolina. Texas and
Maryland. it may have been inferred that
this puzzlir malady prevails only in the
South There is now evidence to the
contrary. The superintendent of an asy-
lum for the incurable insane near Peoria.
H., became suspicious in regard 10 the
symptoms which some OF his charges eX-
hibited last year, and invited the surgeon
general of the army 10 investigate the
outbreak. i3rs. J. T. Siler and H J.
Nichols, 10 whom the duty was assigned,
have made an extended report. which ap-
pears in The New York Medical Record -
No fewer than 115 of the 2,150 persons
detained in the asylum were found TO be
more or less seriously afflicted with pei
lagra. Special study was given to 100
patients of whom % died. 10 were fail
ing at last accounts, IL were improving
and 81 had recovered.
II is manifestly impossible that any
such prCpOT sion of cases exists generally
in Illinois. Not only did the victims be-
long 10 the pauper class, but most of
them suffered from other physical disor-
ders. Besides, not one Of the physicians.
attendants or employees of the asylum
was affected. Yet the situati at Peoria
raises the question whether there may
not be many sufferers from the disease
elsewhere in the North Perhaps the
recognition of its character may have
been too tardy To afford trustworthy sta
tistics thus far The discovery made in
one place may lead 10 similar ones in
others. In any case, further observation
OF the extent TO which pellagra prevails
and further Investigation into its causes
are kind OF service urgently demanded
Laboratory tests conducted by Drs.
Siler and Nichols seem 10 indicate that
there are no bacilli Ia the blood which

lsms of another kind (amebm) were
found IN the intestines of patients, but
that any relation exists between these
forms of life and pellagra is doubted by

had an unfavorable influence, Drs. sier

made in Congress on the good faith and

ANOTHER HAGUE REFERENCE.

Continued progress in international
adjudication is indicated in the an
nouncement that the Russo German
dispute over the steamship Anhalt is 10
be submitted TO the tribunal at The
Hague This is q case which had its
origin in the closing days of the Russo
japanese war, though in most of its
details it is just such a case as might
arise in time of peace. and, indeed, the
climax of il did occur long after the
war was ended.
During the war the Russian govern
ment chartered German steamship,
the Anhalt, TO carry a cargo OF muni-
tions Of war to Vladivostok Before
the vessel reached her destination
peace was concluded, and then the Rus
sian government declined to pay the
large price which had been stipulated
on account of the risks of war. The
owner of the vessel persisted in his
claim, however, and carried the case
into the German courts. where he re-
ceived an award of $4,000. There
upon, TO secure payment of that award,
he asked ana obtained from the court
an attachment upon or an impounding
OF some Russian government funds 10
the amount OF s2,000,o00. which Were
lying in n banking house at Berlin.
Against this procedure tine Russian
government protested, as a violation OF
international law; the German govern
nent replied by proposing reference TO
The Hague, and TO that proposition the
Russian government has now agreed.
The case is an apt example OF the
kind of cases which often arise and
which are admirably suited 10 such dis
position. 1t involves neither the intee.
rity nor the honor of either djsputant.
and therefore may properly be referred
10 an impartial alien tribunal More.

legal in character. and therefore is TO
be dealt with not by arbitration in the
ordinary sense of that term. but rather
by strictly Judicial court. There is
