Models of Old Masters Are
Urged as Substitutes for

Severely censuring the mothers for al
lowing their children to have such toys
as the Billiken, Mutt, and jeff figures
and the Noah's Ark for the playthings
of their childhood, the Rev. Clayton II.
Ranck, pastor of the Third Reformed
Church of Baltimore, this morning
pleaded with the Mothers Congress for
an expression of real art in the home.
"Our children should be playing with
models of the old masters" said DIR.
Ranck, instead of being allowed to have
such foolish and worthless playthings
as Teddy Bears. Billikens. and the like.
Even the Noah's Ark, with its bits Of
gaudily painted wood, should be thrown
away, and something that Is art SUBJ
stituted."

more about the responsibilities of mar
riage. also declared Mr.. Wood.
That there was no longer any priv.
acy In the home was the complaint
sounded by Patterson Dubois, OF
Philadelphia. A closer home circle
was the remedy suggested. Mr.. Du-
Bois said that without a child in the
home there was no home in the full

the downfall of the nation II the
present tendency toward race suicide
continued.
This afternoon the delegates to the
Congress were received by President
Taft at the White House. and many
afterward made sightseeing trips
about the city. Several amendments
to the constitution and bylaws OF
the congress were adopted at a ses-
sion of the constitutional committee
and TO the declaration of the con-
gress was added the phrase that "the
congress believes that with the aid
of divine power, its purposes will be
accomplished."1 The lack of recogni-
ton OF the deity in the Constitution
has caused much comment hereto

MEXICO CITY. May 1.-Consternation
reigned here today over renewed reports
that the United States will intervene
following the deraiing of an express
train and the shooting of a score. more
or less, of Americans. Spaniards. and
Russians, who were passengers. The
news Of the derailing of the train by
the rebels and the subsequent looting of
dead and injured reached here today.
at the same time as did a report that a
Russian consul, Staiewski. had been
kidnapped. and a Russian subject, Dr.
Pahr Olsen Setter. a wealthy rubber
merchant, had been shot through the
heart and his body robbed.
Later it was learned that Setter had
a checkered career He was born in
Finland. of Swedish parents; was ma
tionalized in the United States; re-
newed allegiance to Sweden in 1907. and
at one time was said to have been a
Portuguese consul here.
The reported kidnapping of the Rus
sian consul, NJ. Stalewski. was refuted.
when StaleWski today returned to Mex
ico City and had a long talk with Min
lister of Foreign Affairs De La Barra-
The Russian minister was with him.
Although the details of the wreck and
the looting of it's passengers are
meager. they are said to be authorita-
tive.
The rebels estimate that a thousand
passengers were in the derailed train,
1t was the regular Saturday excursion
train on the Mexican Central to Cuerna'
vaca, fifty miles south of here. The
wreck occurred at 6 Saturday evening.
A brak eman was shot and killed when
he started back to flag a second train.
The result was a rear-end collision. II
Is reported a number were injured. The
affair has demonstrated the disposition
of the rebels to stir up trouble.
1t appears the rebels pulled up a rail
and signaled the engineer, George Rar'
Sy, an American. to down brakes. He
refused and dashed into the open rail
The rebels then fired into the train
killing Setter and a Coiored porter. The
passengers were then ordered out anc
robbed of all their valuables. In the
meantime. Hardy and Conductor Miller
disappeared. TER whereabouts art
unknown, andrit is believed they are ir
the hands OF the rebels.

Passengers walked from El Parquet tc

SCORE HONDURAN
LOAN DIPLOMACY
Senator Smith, on Foreign Relations Committee, and La
Follette in Magazine, Criticise the Dollar" Policy
- of State Department.
By JUDSoN c. wELLIvER.

Dollar diplomacy has received a bad
back-set in connection with the Hon.
duran loan and the new commercial
treaty between. the United States and
Honduras.
Senator William Alden Smith, Of
Michigan, has declared himself against
dollar diplomacy and ready to fight the
treaty. He has been so aggressive and
disagreeable that, although the Hon
duran treaty was reported out Of the
Foreign Relations Committee, the
people are fearful of calling It up in
executive session lest the opposition be-
come so strong as to be unmanageable.
Meantime the forces are organized
for a hard fight all along the line. Dol
lar diplomacy is going to be aired ~
much detail and at considerable length.
Hondurian Guarantee.
The government of Honduras owes
something like 500, 100000. In the
process of readjusting and scaling
down this debt, a syndicate Of Ameri-
can bankers undertook to fund the
loan and take up between $4,000, 900
and $4,000, 900 of Honduran bonds.
AS a condition of doing this they in
sisted that the customs and general
fiscal affairs of Honduras be subject
ed to certain supervision by the
United States Government.
AS a result treaty was drawn,
which. by providing such supervision,
gives the bankers a reasonable guar
antee of the solvency of the country
hereafter.
This Honduras arrangement is look
ed upon as the perfected flower of
the dollar diplomacy policy, Believers
in dollar diplomacy regard II as a
fine arrangement; opponents of dol
lar diplomacy denounce it as an en-
ployment of the diplomatic service
of the United States to get business
for a private banking syndicate.
Senator Smith Fights
When the treaty was laid before the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee,
Secretary Knox appeared and present
ed his explanation of it. frankly point
irg out the fiscal value that would ac-
crue to American interests. When he
had concluded, Senator Smith delivered
himself of few observations.
LAS | understand 1t, he said, this
ARRANGEMENT practically makes the
United States dominate the customs and
fiscal administration OF Honduras, and
in consideration of that a syndicate or
American financiers is given the Hon
duran loan. ! shall not vote to ap-
prove such an arrangement. l DO not
