London, April 21.-The Morning
Post in an editorial on the work of the
coming imperial conference, suggests
that the committee on imperial de-
tense take the opportunity to discuss
how to meet the American naval
menace on the Great Lakes. The
Post declares that 1t does not matter
that these vessels are called training
ships, their presence is violation of
the Rush-Bagot treaty and stand
ing menace to Canadian independ-
ence, 1t says. 1t would be. betfes
from the British standpoint, says the
paper, to let the Americans denounce
the treaty IL they do not wish to
abide by its terms.

BARON ROSEN OFF HOME
Retiring Russian Ambassador to
Join Cars Cabinet.
SUCCESSOR EXPECTED SOON
M. Bakhmetieff May Have Power
to Grant Better Treat
ment for Jews.

Washington Oct Baron Rosen. the
retiring Russian Ambassador, left Wash
ington tonight for New York TO take ship
for Europe on his return to St. Peters
burg, where he is to assume the portfolio
of Minister for Foreign Affairs. The en-
tire staff OF the embassy accompanied the
retiring ambassador as far as New York
to see him off.
NJ. Bakhmetieff Baron Rosen's successor,
is expected in Washington within a fort
night High hopes are entertained by the
Jewish element that the new ambassador
brings with him powers conferred by his
government to open negotiations with the
State Department for a revision of the
old treaty Of 1882 beween Russia and the
United States which will admit Jews Of
American birth or Russian Jews natural
lied I'm America TO full and unrestricted
rights Of travel and residence in Russia.
II is said at the State Department that
there has been no assurance on this point
from the Russian government, which has
insisted that the question was one of
purely internal economy and that nothing
coulc be done to ameliorate the condition
Of Jews of foreign birth seeking to enter
Russia until the Russian Douma had
changed the organic law.
But while this statement is perhaps lit
orally true there is reason to believe that,
dependent on the report which Baron Ro-
sen makes to his government when he re-
turns to 81. Petersburg, his successor in
Washington will be able to enter on negotia-
lions for revision Of the existing treaty,
at least in a preliminary manner. There

Bull Vaughn, daughter of the Norwegian
violinist, ole Bull, was fled to-day with
Judge Hobbs, of the York County Probate
Court.
The bulk OF the estate, which is believed
to be worth $4,000 is bequeathed to sylvea
Bull Vaughn, a minor adopted daughter
of Mrs. Vaughn. Dorothy Shapleigh and
David Miller, two children who had been
under Mrs. Vaughn's care. received the
sum of $4,000 each.
Requests OF $4,000 each were made to

by Mrs. Vaughn against the will OF her
mother, Mrs. ole Bull Under the terms
OF Mrs. Bulls will the bulk OF the estate
was left to Hindu mystics. The court
hearings at Alfred, Me-, disclosed sensa-

SUES HER AUNT'S LEGATEE
Action Recalls Disbarred Law
ver's Lunacy Proceedings.

Papers in an action to Construe a clause
in a will already admitted to probate were
fled yesterday in the office of the County
Clerk. The plaintiff was Ida Reinhardt
niece Of Mrs Louisa Klener, the testator
and the defendant Ferdinand f. Stein
bach. chief legatee under the instrument
Behind the suit lies a story of intrigue
fit for a novel, according to Thomas G.
Larkin. attorney for the plaintiff.
Mrs. Reinhardt, so Larhn's story ram
was finding some trouble taking care Of
her aunt, Mrs Louisa Klener, widow of a
German immigrant, when Henry W. Leon
ard, later disbarred from the New York
bar on the charge Of having forged his
New Jersey certificate, suggested that she
be sent to an insane asylum. -Four
months after she had been committed,
Larkin said yesterday, the hospital au-
thorities Informed Leonard that she was
well enough to be removed.
Instead Of Informing her niece, Leonard
sent Steinbach to the hospital with writ
Of habeas corpus and Mrs. Klener was
paroIed IN his custody On August Is,
1909. the final order discharging her from
the institution was ISSUED, and four days
later Mrs. Klener made will, giving 20
Stcubach tho income from her estate Tor
life and providing that he might distrib-
ME il among those who had been instru-
mental in getting her out Of the asylum.
II was said that Leonard drew the will.
Leonard died about two months ago,
T,arkin said. but. Steinbach had filed the
will I'm Brooklyn. and II had been pro-
bated. Larkin maintained that the clause
leaving the life estate 10 Steinbach Gre
ated a trust and was Invalid on the
ground that the benehciaries under II
we're indefinite.

LINER REFUGE FOR BIRDS
Blown Out to Sea, They Roost on
Incoming Ship.

The Anchor liner Caledonia. which ar
rived here yesterday fro n Glasgow, proved
10 be welcome roost for many weary land
birds driven seward by the stiff north
westerly gales that blew off Nantucket on
Sunday.
II was said that there were four varieties
OF birds blown out to the liner. but the
majority OF them were sparrows. Hunger
and exhaustion made them forget fear, and
birds that were naturally wild and tlmid
picked crumbs from the hands Of passen-
gers.
A child on the forward deck playing with
a toy bear was an attraction for hungry
hawk that had been battling with the gale
for several miles. The half famished bird
swooped down upon the deck and tried 10
make away with the toy bear. Disguised
with its inability to lift IT'S prey, the hawk
flew TO the north and was soon beyond the
range OF human eyes. Many Of the New
England sparrows remained on the Gale
donia until she came of Sandy Hook, and
then few toward the Highlands.
Among the passengers on the Caledonia
were Thomas l.. James, former Postmaster
General: Or. +. y. Downton, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Wordsworth, Quinton Bone and Mr.
and Mrs Tabor Sears

1915 N. Y. u. FORCES DRAW
Hold Porch Against "Sophs,' but
Later Lose Heavyweight Trial.

The shadows Of the grim, gray Palisades
had just fallen over the campus at New
York University last night when sixty stall
wart representatives of the class Of 1915
took possession of the porch Of historic
Butler Hall. Custom had ordained that
they should assemble at this place at the
hour appointed in order that a test might
ice made of their physical prowess and
courage. The test, in the shape Of eighty
sophomores, was not long in making its
appearance.
Hundreds Of the alumni of the university
and the residents at University Heights
occupied the knoll to the south, where they
could get a full view Of the fun when il
started. 1t was not long I'm starting after
the sophomores had surveyed the heights
they were to storm, and their leaders had
held a few whispered conferences.
In an instant the old porch was the scene
Of a merry scramble. First one and then
another would come tumbling down TO the
green below. and then, after regaining his
feet, would go back into the conflict. For
fifteen minutes the battle ragged, and then
a stately senior blew the trumpet, which
halted the carnage.
The official census takers then made their
way over the porch and took count Of those
"freshics" who had weathered the storm.
The count revealed that half the freshman
class had held their ground, and the affair
was pronounced a draw.
Both classes then adjourned TO Ohio
Field where the wrestling bouts took
place. In these the entering class made
fine showing, winning all but the heavy
weight contest. The winners in the varl-
Gus bouts and the time follow:
