"PRISON SHIP" REVIVED.
Old Mode of Furnishing Naughty
Middies at Annapolis.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, November 11.-Al-
though no official announcement has been
made, it is understood from reliable
sources that the Naval Academy authori-
ties will shortly revert to the old Gus
tom of having a prison ship for the in
carceration of the naughty midshipmen.
The prison ship-"guard boat" it will be
officially called - will be the cruiser
Reina Mercedes, one OF the trophies of
the unpleasantness with Spain, captured
at the blockade of Santiago, and now the
station ship at the Naval Academy.
Rooted over from stem to stern. this ves-
sci is well adapted for the purpose. For
many years the old training ship Santee
now derelict and which will shortly be
dismantled, having been sold to Phila-
delphia Junk firm, was used as the prison
ship, but her service in that respect was
discontinued several years ago. Since
then midshipmen reported for minor in
fractions of the regu. .ations of discipline
have been punished by confinement to
the precincts of Bancroft Hall, the dormi-
tory of the student body, for periods ac-
cording to the gravity Of the offense COM
mitted.

NEW YORK, November 1.-According
to tabulations made by socialist leaders
here, the socialist vote in last Tuesdays s

CABINET IS DEFEATED
ON HOME RULE BILL
Division Was a Snap One on
Financial Provisions of
the Measure.

LONDON, November 1.-THE cabinet
was defeated today by a vote of DOS
against 2O6 in the committee on the home
rule bill.
The division was a snap one on the
financial provisions of the measure.
Sir Frederick Banbury, a unionist men,
ber for the city of London. moved an
amendment providing that the total pay
ment from the imperial exchequer to the
Irish parliament should not exceed $l2,
100000. exclusive of the amount received
from Irish taxation and having regard to
the amount saved in the Irish admin stra-
ton by the transfer of certain services to
the control of the Irish government.
House Adjourns.
The house of commons then adjourned.
There has been considerable opposition
by members on the ministerial side of the
house to the financial provisions of the
home rule bill. Some seventy liberal
members have given voice to their OBJ
lection to the Irish parliament being
given control of the customs, as they
argue such control would enable the Irish
parliament to introduce protection.
The followers of William O'Brien only
this morning announced their intention of
withdrawing from the house during the
proceedings of the committee on the
finance clauses of the bill.
The government is considering its po-
sition in view of the adverse vote in COM
mittee. The cabinet does not necessarily
have to resign and is unlikely to do SO in
face of the international crisis.
Revenue From Ireland.
Herbert Samuel, the postmaster gen.
eral. in opposing Sir Frederick anbury's
amendment to the home rule bill, said it
would mean that the total sum payable to
Ireland would be limited to $12,5OO,OO0 a
year. The revenue from Irish taxation
would be S47,OO0,OOO. estimated on the
present basis of Irish revenue, and the
amendment would mean that the sum
handed back to Ireland would be $12, 5OO,- :
600 for services which cost S3O.OOO,OOO a
year.
When the result of the vote was an
nounced the uniOnists present cheered
wildly.
Premier Asquith when he came in quiet
ly announced that the sitting would be
adjourned
Snap divisions during the meetings of
committees of the house of commons are
not unusual, although this is the first ex-
ernment. Arthur ]. Balfour when he
was premier suffered in this way several
times during his last parliament.

LONDON, November 1.-THE British
ambassador to the United States. James
Bryce. will remain at Washington until
all pending negotiations have been
cleared up. These include. It is under
stood, the question Of the Panama canal.
The British foreign office is not yet pre-
pared to issue any statement in regard
to the ambassadors retirement OF as to
the appointment Of his successor, who
will, however. undoubtedly be Sir Cecil
Arthur Spring-Rice. 1t was stated at the
foreign Office today that 1dr. Bryce will
endeavor to leave a clean slate for the
new ambassador
With the exception Of the official West
minister Gazette, the comments of the
evening newspapers on MIR. Bryce's term
Of office at Washington are most unfa-
vorable.
Unable to Forgive.
This is due to the assistance he gave
the Canadian government under Sir Will
frid Laurier in the negotiation of the
reciprocity treaty, for which the unionist
press Is unable to forgive him. The
Westminster Gazette says:
1T is the fashion for unionists to de-

is nothing in it which does not rebound

same time a vigilant guardian of the in

ington under the late Lord Pauncefote.
is a dipiomat Of another type. but he
will get a warm welcome, and We feel
sure his great abilities will find ample
scope in his new work"
Cannot Regret Decision.
The Globe says:
Ambassador Bryce will take with him
into his retirement the good wishes Of
all Englishmen and the thanks of some
Americans. but We cannot pretend to re-
gret his decision"
The newspaper proceeds to condemn
Mr.. Bryce's attitude in regard to reci-
procity
The Pail Mall Gazette wishes it were
possible to speak more cordially of Am
bassador Bryce's term of Office. 1t says
I'VE have always insisted on the un-
fairness of attacks on q diplomat who is
not a free agent and must accept his
policy from the ministers at home. 1t Is
possible that no ambassador could have
given a more satisfactory aspect to the
reciprocity treaty or to the Panama
canal business from the iHipciidi Siue.
Relations Not Improved"
AT the same time our relations We're
never improved by the presence at Wash
ington of a politician whose national
sentiments are notoriously lukewarm and
whose instincts are all for peace at any
price. 1t is the greatest illusion in the
world that an aptitude for graceful sur

These remarks allude to the attacks on
Ambassador Bryce at the time of the
publication in May of the letter of Presi-
dent Taft to Theodore Roosevelt. in which
the President used the expression:
Meantime the amount of Canadian
products we would take would produce a
current of business between western Can

POLICE SEEKING CLUES
TO WOMAN'S IDENTITY
Finding of Her Body in Pond
May Develop Double
Murder.

GEORGETOWN, Conn.,, November IL
While the identity of the woman whose
body was found in local millpond Sat
urday, with a dozen stab wounds in it,
remains undisclosed today, the local au-
thorities have taken up an investigation
Of the disappearance of Niccoccia Arnes-
tina and his wife from their home. three
miles west of Ridgefield. late in October.
The theory is that there is a connection
between this and the murder of the un-
known woman.
Home Under Surveillance.
The Arnestinas lived on the Lake Wac
cabuc road. close to the New York state
line. and their house was one of those
that the state police had under suspicion
during recent liquor raids, when about
twenty Italians were arrested.
The authorities at first supposed that
the couple had fed across the New York
state line, because they feared arrest for
illegal liquor selling, but now fear is ex-
pressed that both the Arnestinas have
been murdered and that the body found
in the pond in Georgetown Is that of Mrs.
Arnestina. The features of the murdered
woman are so discolored and distorted
The state police declared today that
neither Arnestina nor his wife gave them
information in regard to the liquor cases.
Another Murder Recalled.
Prosecuting Attorney Beers of Danbury
is much impressed with the theory that
the murdered woman may have had some
connection with Gioviannia Cavaglieri.
the woman who was slain in Stratford
a few weeks ago, but both he and State
Policeman Virelli said today that SO far
no evidence to connect the two crimes
had developed beyond the fact that the
initials &c. c." embroidered upon the
bedspread in which the body Of the mill
pond victim was wrapped. were those OF
the woman killed in Stratford.
The autopsy showed that the body was
in such an advanced stage or decomposi-
tion that death must have occurred at
least ten days prior to Saturday. when
the body was discovered In the water.
and the indications are that it had been
there at least a week.

ORourke! Bless the lad"
But as he breathed this benediction
the iron door swung inwards and he
stumbled across the threshold, half
fainting, hardly conscious that he had
done more than pass from open night
to the night OF ar enclosed space. His
foot caught on some obstruction and
be went to his knees with a cry that
was a cross between a sob and a
groan; and incontinently fell full
length upon an earthen floor. hts head
pillowed on his arm. painting as II bis
heart would break.
In the darkness above him someone
cried aloud. a startled cry. and then
the door vas thrust to with a clang
and rattle OF bolts. A match rasped
loudly and a flicker Of light leaped
from n small hand lamp and revealed
to its bearer the tagged and Quivering
figure or the floor.
Some one sat down beside him with
a low exclamation of solicitude and
gathered his head into her lap, Some
one quite simply EMBODIED his neck
with soft arms and pressed his head
to her bosom. and as IL that we're not

Now the integral madness of all this

Blankly he told himself that he was

And yet, when he looked, II was to

full as young, as young as beautiful.
One glance was enough. O'Rourke
shut his eyes again. "lf I look too
