REIGN Of TERROR DUE
WHEN PROBE IS FELT
Democrats Getting Ready for
Thorough Inquiry Into
Executive Expenditures.

A reign of terror in the government de-
partments in Washington, such as pre-
vailed during the searching democratic
Congress probe Of 1876. when a cabinet
oficer was impeached and $3oOOOOOO
sliced off the annual appropriation for
running the government. is predicted as
soon as the nine committees on expendi-
lures in the executive departments begin
the exhaustive investigation that has
been planned.
In 1876 there came into power the first
democratic House since the civil war.
The republicans had been In uninterrupt-
ed control and the first thing the demo-
Gratis did, on securing control of the ma
chinery of the lower branch, was to put
the expenditures committees to work, just
as it Is planned to do by this present
House. which, coming into control after
sixteen years in the minority, expects to
find conditions in the government depart
ments out Of which campaign material
for 1912 can be manufactured
Created Holman Rule.
II is also significant and OF intense in
terest that 1876 saw the celebrated Hoi-
man amendment included in the rules OF
the House This amendment, as has
been previously explained in The Star.

ton bills. when the object Of such legis-
lation is retrenchment. and was the one
thing that made possible the thirty-mil-
on-dollar reduction in the cost OF rum

ocratic House of thirty-ive years ago.
After long years of disuse. the Holman
amendment, 50 named because 1t was
framed by the first famous watch dog OF
the Treasury is included in its entirety
in the rules of the present House ana Is
expected to accomplish. relatively speak
ing as much as it did in 1876. IL this
expectation comes true. then the appro-
prictions made by the next regular ses-
sion of Congress--granting that the
House stands firm and does not permit
the Senate to have its way-will be be-

COLLEGE BOYS CAN'T
 MIX WITH ACTRESSES

Cambridge, June 0.-(Special)-By or der of the proctors, Cambridge under graduates with a taste for amateur acting have been forbidden to take part in dra- matic performances in which professional
 actresses appear
 During the past two years at Cam
 bridge several plays have been produced
 by the Amateur Dramatic club and the Footlights club, in which actresses took the feminine parts, thus following the productions of the Oxford University Dramatic society But now the proctors at Cambridge have agreed that to have actresses mixing with undergraduates at rehearsals and upon the stage, is a condi- tion of things against which they must set their faces
 Therefore in future mixed theatrical will not take place without permission of the university au- thorities. The old regime must come back they say, in which smooth-faced and bright-cheeked undergraduates played the feminine parts.
 This order has brought about some in dgnation We can look after ourselves" !" say the undergraduates who have talent as amateur actors. One university, publi- cation, the Gownsman, declares that the order means persistence in the monastic ideal, confining the undergraduates as a race apart

KAISER SUED FOR
 TWENTY MILLIONS

Berlin, June I0.-(Special.)-An action has been commenced in the German, courts by the descendants of the famous Russian General Muennich to recover the sum of 4oooo,ooO roubles ($20,OOoooo) from Emperor William as. King of Prussia. The claim is based upon the gift of the estate to General Muennich by Fredirick the Great as a reward for his share fin bringing about the treaty between Russia and Prussia. The general himself refused to accept the preferred present, but the deeds of gift were later handed to his son. During the banishment of the Muen- nichs, which lasted 20 years, doubts seem to have arisen as to the ownership Of the estate in question, and they do not ap- pear to have been finally allowed by the arbitration decision given by Frederick the 0sreat in favor of the younger Muen- nich in 1765.
 In 1903 the claim of the Muennich fam fly was preached Automatically by the Russian ambassador at Berlin, but the Prussian foreign minister, Haugwitz, re- piled that his government could not admit its validity. Some fifty years later de-
 scendant of the general, who was chief court marshal to the Duke of Oldenburg, managed to interest that prince in the business, and secured a pronouncement from Frederick William ". to the effect that the disputed estate had reverted to the Prussian crown, in virtue of the act of punishment. It is understood, however.

ion that the flying competitions of the present day are far too severe. He does not believe that aviators should give exhibitions before crowds and expresses the view that flying machines that are not properly au point should be pro- tibited. Nor should pilots, who are not sufficiently experienced, be permitted to make the long journey. Bleriot consid- CTS that it is folly to base aeroplane competitors on speed. "At present." he adds. the aeroplane is principally mill tary engine, and should be regarded as such In future"
 On the other side efforts are being made to make use of the aeroplane in practical life and several well-known Journalists here are convinced that 1t has now reached such state of perfection that it should be used as an auxiliary newspaper distributor. To this end a project Is now on foot to establish all airship service for the delivery of news pa,-ers to incoming Atlantic liners and to receive In return the mailed copies of foreign contemporaries. In this way several hours would be gained in dealing with "exchanges' in the big newspaper offices Doubtless the monoplane and her less elegant sister, the biplane, are destined before very long to be harnesed to the regular task of distributing news.

So great was the velocity of the fall that the prov of the machine was buried in the earth. The bodies of Sehendel and Vose were 3Ightfully mangled.

ONE KILLED IN
 TRAIN WRECK

Albuquerque. N. NJ, June 10-One person was killed and 20 injured yesterday when the westbound California limited on the Atchison, Topeka and SaDta Fe collided with a light engine near Domin- go. 30 miles north of Alhaquerque.
 The dead: ,'
 A. ". Green, Las Vegas, engineer of light engine.
 Railroad officfals attribute the wreck to disobedien0e' of orders by the engineer of the light engine. Both trains were travelling at high speed when the crash occurred, but the solid steel cars of the limited withstood the shock well and while the passengers were badly shaken up, it is not believed any were fatally injured.
 Relief trains were dispatched from AL buquerque and the dead and injured brought here.

ST. WENZEL'S GROWN
 HAS DISAPPEARED

Prague, June 10.-(Special. )-Mystery surrounds the disappearance from the Cathedral here of the Be- hemian kings, the so-called St.. Wen- gels crown, and an extraordinary amount of secrecy is being observed as to exactly what has happened. The crowns together with other jewels and insignia, was kept in the St. Wenzel chapel, which, it is stated, has not been opened since 1858, and of which seven keys exist, all In the hands of high offi- cials. It Is impossible as yet to obtain any precise information as to whether all the articles have been taken away or only the crown, for the matter has only leaked out by devious channels, and the authori- ties at the Cathedral which is now in the hands of workmen engaged in the recon struction and repairs, will take no official cognisance of the many contradictory re- ports which are being circulated.

Madrid, June. 10.--(Special.) )-There has been much publfc excitement in Valencia over the execution of the soldier who killed on-commissioned officer of his regiment.

The population of France continues to dwindle and the statisticians raise the cry of alarm. The latest census re- turns are just as mournful as the pre- eedlng. There Is. however, ray of hope The marriage rate is rising. This is to be attributed directly to the new legis- lation introduced by that excellent priest, the Abbe Lemire, who was specialized in this direction in the chamber. UDfor- tunately. he finds that in serving the cause of a wide humanity he is upsetting narrow prejudices, and he has to pay the penalty in some criticism Of his work and aims by Catholics. Still, the fact remains that marriages have largely in creased since the old vexatious disabili- ties were removed, and the boy and girl can go before the major. and afterwards the cure with a minimum of formalities. The recalcitrant parent who withholds his consent because of the insufficiency of the dot" can now be deied with impunity.
 Yet the birth rate has not improved. Presumably 1t will. In the meantime, treatment for fathers of large families has become one of the questions of the day Unless some change of sentiment arises, France must eventually disap- pear from the map. In place of the mil lion a year excess of births over deaths in Germany, France can show only a few thousands. The only remedy one can see is that other nations will gradually come to follow France In this respect. It is a question of what we might call super civilication;" and we are all tending that way.
 The relative tranquility In the wine- growing districts of the Marne and ths Aube is due to an understanding that the council of state should be given time to tc ,aA higher judicial authority in France. It now appears that the council of state Is proposing to settle differences by admit ting Bar-sur-A -Aube and Bar-sur-Seine in- to the campagne districts. If judgment be given on those lines it will be the triumph of the Aube. But what about the Marne? The council, alive to bad impression such solution would be like ly to provoke, suggests that certain growths of the Marne should hence- forth be known as "Grande Champagne,' to distinguish them from ordinary pre- parations. Solomon could be no wiser. r'''o tr-0 departments should kiss and make friends instanter. Unfortunately,
 Marne is iealously exclusive. The law has fixed its boundaries and 1t will ho 'done out of them. Remember the incendiarism, the pillage, and the vio- fence that immediately followed the sug- gestion of the senate that delimitations should be abrogated. Instead of making peace I should not be surprised if the council made confusion worse con founded"
 The recent disaster at Issy-le -Mouli- neaux which cost the minister of wal his life has given rise to much discus sion among aerial experts, all of whom | agree, however. that the fatal accident was entirely due to the authorities dis | regard of the Aero clubs advice in re- gard to keeping the crowds away from the danger spot and that at every futur;
