LONDON is PLEASED
BY WILSON'S ADDRESS

LONDON, March 5.--While paying
tribute of admiration to the earnest
and lofty tone of President Woodrow
Wilson's address, the London morn
ing papers express doubt that he will
succeed in translating 1t into prac-
teal politics.
The Daily Telegraph says: 'Presi-
dent Wilson has plueked the string
of pure ideaIism whose sound may be
pleasant In the ears of his country
men. But If Congress Is to join in
the work of reform it will probably
be in response to irresistible move
ments in the nation itself rather than
in Difference to the desires expressed
by the President. Whatever happens,
however, his presidential term is GER
tain to be remarkable and vivid
period in the modern development of
the United States"
The Daily Mail, discussing Presi-
dent Wilson's address, thinks per-
haps it conveys to the average mind
somewhat too black an impression
of modern American conditions, but
says: Zone fact at least clearly APP
pears; the era of free competition is
over in the United States and the
day of government control of indus
try is at hand. There is an old
American parable, Each for himself,
as the elephant said when he danced
among the chickens That principle
may be very salutary and comfort
able for the elephant, but henceforth
the American government will think
mainly of the chickens"
The Daily Chronicle says: "Presi-
dent Wilson's address is a striking
expression of that elevated democ-
racy which too long has been absent
from high politics. When some of the
greatest nations of the world seem to
be making mockery of humanity, his
clarion call should echo far beyond
the shores of his country and bear
fruit. The United States must be
most heartily congratulated on hav-
ing such a true Democrat, such a
fearless statesman at its head"

SAT ON A CELLAR DOOR
WHILE BOYS ATE SWEETS
Cutterman's Fortitude in Cold
Rewarded by Capture.

Pedestrians in Springfield, near
Belmont avenue, were astonished to
see Charles Gutterman, a grocer, at
237 Springfield avenue, complacently
sitting on the cellar door of his
store, apparently intent on stopping
the escape of some one within the
cellar. When asked by some Gu
rious persons why he was sitting on
the door he remarked that he had
trapped three burglars and was
waiting for a limb or the whole tree
of the law to come to his assist
ance.
Five minutes passed, ten minutes,
and still no limb came in his di-
rection. Gutterman had no coat on,
and at this time of the year a coat
is very essential to ones health.
especially If one is in the habit of
sitting on a cellar door, in the front
Of ones store. Customers were i'm
patiently beseeching Gutterman to
get off the door and come in and
wait on them. But did he listen?
He did-not He know that the rob-
bers were of diminutive size or they
would have lifted the door and
tossed him bodily into the street.
What were they after in his cellar
He only kept his canned preserves
there. What did they want with
canned Eureka? They were boys
sure enough. Don't all real boys
just relish preserves?
His deductive mood was inter-
rupted by Sergeant Opel, of the
Fourth precinct, who asked if he
might be of any assistance and sit
on the door if the door must be "sat
on until Gutterman obtained a coat
and other winter apparel, Gutter
man explained the circumstances to
the sergeant and then got off the
door. and as he did so three small
urchins stepped into the sergeant's
welcoming arms

he left the station house.

START PROBE IN
!. ENGINE EXPLOSION
Fireman's Story Causes County
Physician to Investigate
Engineer Henicker's Death.

Spurred into sudden activity, the
Union county authorities today began
"a rigid probe into the death of Au-
= gust Henicker, of 113 Miller street,
TINS city, the Pennsylvania railroad
engineer who was killed by an ex-
ploding locomotive at East Railway
on Monday
=. Henlcker's body was taken from
MS nome to Martins morgue, Eliza
beth, and an inquest was formally
opened by County Physician Thomas
r, Dolan. Coroner Higgins impaneled
a jury.
Prosecutor Swift, however, moved
an adjournment until Monday on
the ground that he wished to have a
statement made by Edward Munley,
the fireman of the wrecked engine,
put into legal shape. An autopsy was
performed on Henicker's body this
afternoon. The Interstate Com
merce Commission will also in
q vestigate the wreck, which jeopar
died the lives of 600 Massachusetts
militiamen. What is left of the en-
p CINE is being guarded until the COM
e missions experts can viaw it.
~ 1t was a talk with Munley that
:. started the investigation. The low
water theory advanced by the chief
~ mechanic of the railroad company
: had been accepted by DR.. Dolan.
= Yesterday, however, he went to the
: st. Elizabeth Hospital and had a
= short talk with. the fireman, and
= Immediately afterward the inquest
was ordered.
- Meanwhile rumors reached the
county physician from other sources,
it is said, that the engine was unit
- for service and had been pressed into
= use merely to help in handling the
extraordinary volume of Inaugural
- ton traffic.
The terrific force of the explosion
ia is considered remarkable by engi-
a neering men. Fragments of the loco
e. motive are said to have been blown
= fifty feet in the air.
= The county authorities had orig
= inally accepted the company's expla-
nation, which was that Henicker and
a. his fireman had allowed the water to
run 50 low in the boiler. Then, when
the engine took on water from be-
tween the tracks at the Railway
watering station, the cold stream, ac-
cording to the company's experts,
caused the blow-up.
Among the witnesses TO be called
on Monday, besides those who saw
, the engine explode, are several ex-
pert mechanicians.
Munley, the fireman, is reported to
be improving steadily at the st.
Elizabeth Hospital.

And Why Not?

1t looks as if we have seen the last
of war. 1t has been too difficult a
problem for Carnegie peace founda-
tions and Hague conferences, but as in
the case of many great evils the rem
edy, when once discovered, seems a
simple thing. The solution was left
to Senator Ashurst, of Prescott, Ariz.,
who, in the Senate yesterday, intro
duced a bill to erect a fence along
the border between the United States
and Mexico, to consist of five strands
of I2-gauge barbed wire fastened to
steel posts, said steel posts to be at
least FIVE feet above ground, buried at
least two feet and held by three wire
stays, the posts 10 be not less than
twenty-five feet apart, and said fence
to be constructed at a cost not to ex-
ceed $3.50 per mile"
Tic object, the Senator announces,
is to prevent incursions of Mcxicans,
rebel and federal, into our territory.

Armament Is Eating Up Enterprise.

One does not have to be a financial
expert or a political economist or pos
sess anv special degree OF financial
knowledge to know that one of the
chief causes OF the current financial
depression in the world is the vast
amount of money that has been burned
up in recent years in the creation of
military armaments. 1t is true that
there has been a great destruction OF
capital in other ways-in the wars
that have devastated the face OF the
alobc, in the too-rapid development of
outlying countries such as Argentina,
Brazil. and Canada. and in a too luXu-
rious living in the more settled ma
tions But certain excuse or neccs-
sity has existed for these other eX-
pcnditurc>. concerning which it is not
necessary now to enter into detail.
There has been no excuse or neces-
>ity ior the craze ior armaments. The
nations have literally gone mad over
building warships and adding to their
armed land forces. Fanatics on the
subject in our own country have held
up ridiculous sPecters OF national dam
ger. such as a supposed invasion of
the United States by Japan, and the
pucketbUoks of the nations have read
lily responded to these childlikc fears.
Moreover. as the recent Liebknccht
disclosures in Germany seemed to
prove, there has been in Europe an
intimate relation existing between man.
ufacturcrS OF military supplies and
army officials. 50 that downright cor
ruption has had its share in the whole
monstrouo business. To such an ex-
tent has this obscssion proceeded that
much more than onc-haif of the total
amount Of money now raised by gov
ernment taxation in the whole world,
or at least among the great nations. is
paid ont in naval and military expend-
iture. The withdrawal of such a vast
volume OF capital from the channels of
trade and commerce has done more
than anything else to cripple internal
tional finance.
1t is, therefore, development whose
interest and Importance it is almost
impossible TO Overestimate that there
has been, during the last four months,
a worldwide revolt against this ex-
pansion of armaments. This has not
taken the form OF refusal by any
national governing body to vote money
lor the care and upkeep of armies and
naNies OF for reasonable addition to
existing military or naval forces: but
it has taken the form of distinct
feeling of restleSsness in every cfvi-
lized nation over the great expendi-
:ures for these purposes, and of the
asking of very serious questions
whether the people in the different
countries can stand any longer the tre-
mendouS burden of taxation which this
necessity has imposed.
in Germany, the other day, the trou-
blcs between the soldiers and the citi-
zcns in the town of Zabern in Alsace
led to a scene of excitement and in
dignatiOn in the Reichstag. the like of
which has not been witnessed in years,
and which eliminated in a vote of
