No Foreign Entanglements.

While it was hardly necessary for
the State Department to issue for
NAL denial of the report cabled from
Paris that the United States had Off
CHILLY intervened in the Moroccan i'm
broglio, there will, nevertheless, be a
feeling of satisfaction over the fact that
the alleged news has no foundation.
The United States was, of course, a
party to the Algeciras convention, which
settled the status of Morocco, but its
interest was commercial, and not politi-
cal. 1t would be the height of folly for
this government to interfere in any way
with the dispute between Germany and
France over Moroccan territory It
cannot possibly concern US whether
Germany sends one war vessel to Agadir
or a feet.
We may be world power, and it
may be our traditional duty to preserve
watchful care over our sister repub-
lies of Central and South America. We
draw the line, however, at any attempt
at Intervention when two foreign pow
ers begin to squabble over the acquisi-
ton of territory. The wisdom of
avoiding foreign entanglements is still
apparent.

The Virginia Campaign.

The Senatorial campaign in Virginia
has reached the melting point. Repre-
sentative Jones, one of the candidates,
has revived an old charge against Sena-
tor Martin, who seeks reelection, to
the effect that Mr.. Martin received
money from the railroads to lobby GER
tain matters through the legislature.
In order to substantiate his position, he
has produced a number of letters, writ
ten ten years ago by Mr.. J. S. B.
Thompson, well-known railroad official,
in which there is reference to contribu-
tions and in which Mr.. Martins name
is mentioned.
Senator Martin has met the situation
frankly and promptly. He says that he
has never represented a railroad cor
poration or any other corporation or
any person or persons before any legis-
lative body, for compensation or without
compensation The language of denial
could not be more explicit or direct
He explains, however, that the contribu-
tons referred to in the correspondence
were to the Democratic campaign fund
and were received at a time when. the
Democratic State committee was reach
ing out for funds in all directions in
order to be certain to retain control
of the State government. In this he
is confirmed by former State Chairman
Ellyson, who identifies one contribution
of $500 as having been deposited to
the credit of the campaign fund and
was used for legitimate political work.
The entire amount mentioned in the
correspondence is only $500
The newspapers of the State seem in
clined to accept these statements as
full explanation of the affair. The con-
troversy, SO far as it has proceeded, has
produced no result except to prove that
the Democratic organization was not
averse to accepting money from rail-
road corporations This disclosure,
which is hardly in the nature of sur
prise, affects all the Democrats in Viz
ginia. including Mr.. Jones.

WANAMAKER TELLS
STORY OF HIS VISIT
King and Queen Create Fa-
Vorable Impression.

New York, July 12-John wanamaker,
who has been abroad three months, re-
turned to-day on the White Star liner
Oceanic. He said it would take a small
volume to tell what he did and the i'm
pressions of things he saw and the peo-
pie he met
II was favorably impressed with the
King" Mr.. wanamaker said. His vir-
ility and splendid common sense at
tracted me especially. After the lord
mayor had introduced me to the King,
he presented me to Queen Mary. This
occurred at the throne prepared for him
at the Crystal Palace. The Queen
strikes you instantly as a superior per-
son, a fine example OF womanhood, with
the capacity to act as helpmeet to a
sovereign. The acclamations the King
received from the people will never be
forgotten by him or by those who heard
them.
Il find no antipathy to American people
in London. Many Americans are asking
too much and with them the English
people are not too pleased. But you can
hardly tell an American from an Eng
lishman in London, so close have the two
peoples grown together.
II think the English people feel they
are the running mate OF the American
people advocating universal peace. The
makers Of public sentiment IN England
are much gratified with President Taft's
attitude and believe In the sincerity Of
his intention to continue the agitation
until the project Is considered by every
nation"

WOULD STRENGTHEN
EXTRADITION LAWS
Senate Third Degree" Com
mittee Will Recommend.

The Senate select committee, which
has been investigating the third de-
gree" as applied by police officers to ex-
tort confessions of crime, will probably
recommend to the Senate legislation to
strengthen the extradition laws between
the States The committee is composed
Of Senator Brandegee, chairman; Sena-
tors Borah and Brown, Republicans, and
Senators Stone and Overman, Demo-
Gratis.
The investigation has taken q wide
range Recently the officers OF the
American Federation Of Labor have been
given a hearing on the circumstances
Of the alleged Kidnapping of John j.
McNamara, of Indianapolis, by the
Burns detective agency, in connection
with the dynamiting of the Los Angeles
Times building. A few days ago Samuel
-Gompers was heard, and yesterday Leo
N. Rappaport, Of Indianapolis, attorney
for the structural IRON workers., Of which
McNamara was an officer, was before
the committee. When Gompers asked
that Mr.. Rappaport be given a hearing,
he told the committee that he believed
able to suggest a Federal statute that
would correct the alleged abuses in con-
nection with the taking of McNamara
from Indianapolis to California. But the
attorney, while he was able to recite
many alleged arbitrary and irregular
acts by which Mcnamara was taken
away summarily, admitted that he was
at a loss to suggest a law that would
definitely correct the alleged evil. He
vaguely suggested that If the power to
issue writs OF habeas corpus were con-
ferred upon the Federal courts, It might
AFFORD a solution Of the matter.
Senator Borah admitted that the testi-
mony all showed that McNamara was
abducted. but expressed the opinion
that 1t would require an amendment
to the Federal Constitution to insure
against such acts in the future. The
Senator said that the whole extradition
system was faulty, for under the wording
Of the Constitution, which provides for
the extradition of persons charged with
crime in one State, but who are within
the boundaries Of another State, 1t was
necessary to show that the person want
ed was actually in the State at the time
the crime was committed. In the Nc
Namara case, for example. It is now gen.
orally admitted that he never was IN
California.

LA TOILETTE READY
WITH TARIFF BILL
Will Offer 1t as Reciprocity
Amendment To-day.

Senator La Toilette will introduce in
the Senate to-day the tariff revision bill
which has been tneubating for several
weeks. It represents the last stand of
the Republican insurgents against the
Canadian reciprocity BILL and, like the
amendments that have preceded 1t, will
go down to defeat. The La Toilette
tariff revision measure will, of course.
be offered as an amendment to reci-
procity. Upon this bill the Senator
from wisconsin expects to base his
candidacy for the Presidential nomina-
ton, so far as tariff revision is con-
cerned.
La Toilette last night made public
summary of his amendments, and their
character clearly indicates that there
win be no possibility of compromise leg
islation on the wool schedule between
thu insurgents and the Democrats. The
Democratic wool bill now pending in the
Senate proposes an average ad valorem
duty Of Ass per cent on manufactured
wool products, while the average of the
La Toilette amendments is 66.02 per cent.

AT THE BATHING POOLS.
Rules Regarding Hours which Ba
Out Working People.

Rules Regarding Hours which Bar
Out Working People.
Editor The Washington Herald:
As constant reader Of your paper,
wish to call your attention to a condi-
ton existing at our municipal bathing
beach, which, in my opinion, might well
be remedied for the benefit OF the public
refer to the time limit set for per-
sons who wish to avail themselves of
the privilege of using these swimming
pools.
Last evening, or, to be more specific,
myself at the office of the bathing pools
and requested permission to take a short
swim. was informed that the beach
closed at o'clock sharp, and that no
one was permitted to enter the pools
after $50. 1 was further informed that
If desired to swim after $50 I might
have the privilege of using the Tidal
Basin. Upon inquiry I found that the
only time a woman could use the pools
was between and $50 o'clock on
Wednesday, unless she was able to take
advantage Of the morning hours in
vogue
Now, the question I wish to ask is:
When can a young woman or man take
advantage Of the facilities offered by
these pools If she or he has business
occupation and is unable to reach the
pools prior to $50 O'Clock? I realize
that the appropriation for the purpose
is small, but I fail to see how that has
anything to do with regulating the hours
Of swimming in such a way that work.

fits most, may not be included in these

FISHER ASKSACTION
AT INTERIOR PROBE
Wants "Dick-to- Dick" Let.
ter Settled az Once.

Secretary OF the Interior Fisher yes
terday clearly exposed the purpose Of
the Democrats in the House to play poll
tics with the so-called "Dlck-to-Dick' let
ter incident. He Unexpectedly appeared
before the House Committee on Expendi-
lures in the Interior Department, which
is investigating the alleged Controller
Bay grab, and asked that the committee
proceed to inquire at once into the cir
cumstances surrounding the Dick-to-Dick
letter.
He urged that Miss L. NJ Abbott, who
declares that she saw the letter in the
files of the Interior Department, be. called
to the witness stand. Secretary Fisher
declared he was only too willing to have
the entire matter cleared up Immediately.
The committee, however, declined his re-
quest and by so doing clearly indicated
its intention to drag things out in an
effort to make political capital.
II am very much interested in this
matter" said the Secretary, "and
would appreciate sincerely any informa-
ton which the committee might be able
to give me as to whether or not condi-
tions now obtaining in Controller Pay
jeopardize in any way the interests of
the public. There Is also one other mat
ter in which I am vitally interested.
That is the story of Miss or Mrs. Abbott
as to the disappearance of a certain
document or paper concerned in this
case from the files of my department, be-
cause If any one has been concerned in
the disappearance of anything from my
department l certainly ought to know
about it. Now, I think It would be well
to have this matter settled at once, and
would suggest that Miss or Mrs. Abbott
be allowed to tell her story and the
Of the letter be thrashed
out at once.
Il wish to assure the committee of
my cordial cooperation. absolutely with
put limitation. and without the slightest
desire to protect anybody or anything.
so far in my investigation of this
matter, have been unable to see that
the interests of the public have been in
any way Jeopardized, no matter what
the method of Procedure may have been"
Chairman Graham, of the committee,
denied Secretary Fishers request that
Miss Abbott be placed on the stand at
once. She would, he said. be heard when
her testimony would fit IN logically with
the rest.

DANTE ORDERED
TOSHOW STATEMENT
Defendant in Woman's Suit
Must Verify Income.

At to-morrow's hearing in the case Of
Mrs. Rose Keeling Hutchins against
William ]. Dante, trustee of the estate
Of Stilson Hutchins, for an increase OF
her $1,000 monthly allowance, Mr.. Dante
will produce a complete statement OF
Stilson Hutchins' income and expenses
last year. Auditor Dent, before whom
the hearings take place, yesterday gave
orders to Mr.. Dante to that effect.
Mrs. Hutchins finished her testimony
yesterday and expressed a desire to go
at once to the bedside of her sick hus-
band. Mr.. Dante failed to submit item
penditures of the Hutchins estate, and
Auditor Dent refused to receive a state
ment prepared by Dante showing an es-
innate of the income aud expenses Of
the estate for the ensuing year. Audi
tor Dent said he and not the trustee
would make an estimate of the net in
come Of the estate, which, according to
Mr.. Dante's figures, is 1000, while Mrs
Hutchins expects to show 1t to be about
S12O,OOO
Mrs. Hutchins denied using large sums
admitted paying an obligation Of $500
for Stewart Keeling, her brother, which
money was a part of 5000 obtained by
her by mortgaging the Hutchins resi-
dence, 1908 Massachusetts, avenue north
west, which is her property.
The 5000 obtained from the mortgage
was partly used for household expenses
and possibly some dressmakers' bills
Mrs. Hutchins said she took 5000 to
New London for her summer expenses.
Trustee Dante IN his testimony opposed
the petition of Mrs. Hutehins for an in
crease OF monthly allowance.
The hearing will be continued this
morning at 1o:30 o'clock.
