New Warrant Scrved on Embcxzling
Cashier "a Soon as the Writ was

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec. 19.-The
writ Of habeas corpus today which
was granted to Hugh A. Burrelh for
mer cashier of the Peoples State
Bank atBrownstown, Ind, charged
with $4,000 ENFORCEMENT from
that institution, did not bring the
captive moments of liberty for
the first intimation Burrell had that
the writ had been granted was the
fact that a new warrant for his ar
rest was served on him in his cell at
the county jail.
The warrant under which Burrell
had been held was invalid because
1t was issued by Governor Lee Cruce
and failed TO run IN the name Of the
state as provided by statute. and for
that reason the criminal court Of ap-
peals held that the former banker
was improperly held.

sador that the treaty of commerce
and navigation entered into by the
united States and Russia In 1892.
would be abrogated on January 1.
1918. officials of the Russian gov
erhment are now directing atten-
ton to the consideration Of new
treaty.
Agitation in the United States over
the passport question and the tariff
question Is open for froe discussion.
4 Legislative Change Necessary.
1t is pointed out by Russian Off
Gals that the governments hands are
tied by statutes which cannot be
changed outside of the legislative ma
chinery of the Duma, and the coun-
ell OF the empire as constituted in
1905. The whole question in their
opinion seems to be dominated by
Misunderstanding of the treaty Of
1889 which makes no reference to
passports. Article I. of this treaty
provides for the free entry OF all AM
orican citizens on the sole condition
that they observe the international
laws OF the empire.
This stipulation is reproduced in all
relations with other powers. There
has been no question of enfringement
of the treaty. But actually one OF
modification OF the international stat
utes which can lr done only by Leg
islative means.
Question of Registration.
Further. 1t Is urged that as pass
port statute had been originally en-
acted, or II the question of passports
were merely one of relations between
the United States and Russia. this
question might be matter for diplo-
matte negotiations. But the Russian
statutes having reference to the
Jews do not concern American Jews
but all foreign Jews. \ concession to
the United States would mean a con.
cession to all other countries having
Jewish subjects. Russia. say the Of
ficials, has no wish for bargain and
they ask. What can America con-
cede to Russia for the absolutiOn OF
Jewish legislation"
In responsible quarters the opln-
ion is expressed that the political sit
uation in Russia is favorable to the
regulation of Jewish subjects.

no harm In concessions Of the for
Gigs Jews. and milder policy at
home with respect to this race. but

Believed That the Rebel Commoner

MONTERREY, Mex, Dec. 19.--Gen-
himself at the head of even q small
army of instructors after six days
In the country, has caused the govern
ment officials to regard hm with con-
tempt, his effort to start general
rebellion against the Madero admin
istratlon. Since he and his four loyal
followers crossed the Rio Grande,
he has traversed a large portion Of
the state Of Nuevo Leon. lying In the
bundary line of the state of Tamal-
ipas. but according to reports re-
ceived by General Geronimo Trevino,
commander of the government troops
In tho north, he has failed completely
to secure recruits. SO flat does his
plan appear to the general to have
fallen that he has entrusted his cap
ture to a hundred men under Lieu
tenant Col. Manuel Garcia Lugo, and
regards the pursuit of Reyes more In
the light of man hunt than OF a
serious campaign against revoiu-
tionary force.
Whereabouts Unknown.
Juse where Reyes was today Gen.
Trevino did not know tonight. Since
crossing the border he has estab-
lished no headquarters but has spent
his days in the saddle going from
ranch TO ranch in his search for fol-
lowers but coming each day from his
trail are men who are solicited to
report to Travino his movements. The
latest report considered authentic at
army headquarters is that yesterday
he was on the Caracol ranch, not
FAR from the Tamaulipas line.
Capture Seems Certain.
Friday night he spent at Devisadero
ranch. near China, a town two days
horseback ride from Galeana, the
village generally supposed to be his
base. Gen. Garcia Lugo has placed
his detachment along the line from
q point o short distance south of
Linarc to a point not far from China,
and the commanding officer believes
that within q week he will fall into
the hands of some of these men since
TO Gen. Travino there are
no bands of insurrectionists near
enough to come to the aid Of the
rebel leader.
The night Reyes stopped at the
Deviadero ranch he compelled tho
owner to provide supper and rout out
of their beds portion of the house,
hold and give their couches to him.

Prof. Wenley Talks on
Maze of 18th Century

Prof. r. NJ. wenley. of the depart
ment Of philosophy of the University
Of Michigan. delivered the second OF
the series Of lectures on The maze
OF the nineteenth century" In the
Church OF Our Father. Monday after
noon
He spoke of the eighteenth century
as the second OF two great waves
when civilization fell from Romanism
TO our own day, the first being med
iaevalism. In medieval times, man
was rated according to the rank TO
which he belonged, rather than for
his personal individuality. Life had
died out but the institution remained.
until the period OF the Renaissance
when the great object was liberation,
which saw its elimination In the
eighteenth century. In the eighteenth
century we had the Protestant right
OF private judgment gone mad. The
idea, OF freedom was worshiped with
out knowing what II was.
One OF the absurdities OF eighteenth
century thought was 10 be seen In the
clause In the American Declaration OF
Independence which stated that all
men were born free and equal and
possessed certain inalienable rights.
The speaker went on to afiirm that
the individual had no rights except
such as had already been secured him
by the social conditions into which
he was born. We were only now be-
ginning to realize what Aristotle had
taught, that politics was q part OF
ethics. The nineteenth century was
only a fresh start.
DR.. Wenley referred TO the sig
nificance of the English word. science,
which originally meant the exact
sciences, mathematics, physics or
astronomy Within the last hundred
years the term science had become
so comprehensive In its meaning as
TO include even theological investiga-
ton. The modern scientist was be-
coming somewhat q philosopher as
well. Prof. Wenley spoke Of the
enormous accumulation OF new In
formation as a distinguishing charac-
terlstic OF the nineteenth century. The
unfortunate feature OF last century,
however. was the fight between the
orthodox dogmatism OF the evolu-
ZIONIST and the orthodox dogmatism
OF Professionalism.
A great fallacy of the past century
war the belief that nothing was
scientific which did not appeal to the
senses. In the debate the idealist
was denounced equally by both sides.
The basis OF sanity was beginning to
appear, now that It was being recog-
nizcd that the sciences were one. We
were now beginning to realize that
the subject OF evolution is not so
clear as Darwin's immediate sup
porters considered IT, There was such
an immense tract of the unknown In
the realm OF science. concluded the
speaker, that II amounted almost to
faith.
