Argument Versus Intuition.

Hugo MGnsterberg undoubtedly has got himself
into peck Of trouble with his declaration that
women are unified for jury duty because OF mental
stubbornness' which renders them incapable OK
changing their minds after listening to argument
Women take their newwon privileges seriously, and
are not likely to submit tamely to any such dis
qualification by q psychological investigator
Indeed evidences of the coming storm are already
appearing The "forewoman' Of female jury IN
Chicago declares Indignantly that If women are
less swayed by cold argument than men they
have far superior powers Of intuition. And the
Judge who chose this jury of women called it the
most conscientious that ever heard a case In my
court" chiefly, apparently, because it debated for
two hours "over case that jury Of men would
have tossed off with a laugh in ten minutes"
The issue thus seems to be framed between argu-
ment or appeal to reason, and intuition" 1t
should furnish as great contributions TO human en-
lightenment as its predecessor anent the priority
of the hen or the egg 1t should not be construed
as an evidence Of bias if the fact be recalled that
most states have laws requiring juries TO render
verdicts in accordance with the evidence not in
tuition. But then, they're man-made laws.

Europe's New State.

IT, as is reported, Prince William Of WED has been
selected for the Albanian throne Europe may now
be reckoned to have new state. Nearly year
ago. at the very beginning Of the Balkan revolution,
il was confidently assumed in these columns that
one OF the results would be the creation of an au-
tonomous Albanian state, and that assumption was
confirmed this month"; when the great powers de-
fnitively agreed to such act and delimited the
new principally.
The coast line Of the Albanian state will extend
from the mouth Of the Doyanna River to Cape
Stylos opposite Corfu, something less than two hun
dred miles and the width Of the state from east TO
west will be less than one hundred miles Within
these bounds will be Scutari and the southeastern
end Of the lake OF that name, part Of Lake
ochrida and the town Of Koritza. Dakova, Pris-
rend, Dibra and Prespa Lake lie outside and will

siderable region the south is to be divided between
Albania and Greece photographic lines by an in
ternatonal commission The new state will contain
approximately $4,000 inhabitants
Austria and Italy have been, OF course, seeking
the appointment Of some princeling who would be
subservient to them and would make Albania an
AustroItalian province. That, however, was Rus
sia's scheme when Bulgaria was made autonomous,
in 1878, and Il did not work. There may be like
disappointment In the of Albania; particularly

TRUST THE FUSIONISTS.
Reader Thinks Candidates Should

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
SIR. | am unable 10 fathom the mys-
terious workings OF the minds Of those
fusionists who pray that the fusion cause
shall succeed and yet advise Il course
that would defeat its candidates. IL fu-
sion has any cause distinct from any
other. II is that the administration Of the

form Mcssrs. Mitchell Prendergast and
McAneny were nominated. Can't they be

why should they not accept any indorse-
ment ard help they can get? on the same
ground. there is no reason why District
Attorney Whitman should not accept the
Democratic party's Endorsement, also the
assistance OF the Gaynor nominators. the
independence League. the Prohibitionists
and any others offered him. How would
the defeat OF any OF these men help the
fusion cause? II elected. would they not

sion, and not harmony. This experiment
should never DO repeated IL usurped the
power and authority OF parties and or
ganizations to name candidates for them

The Battle of Lossiemouth.

The ladies Of LOssiemouth deserve triple scold'
ing for their vivacious pranks with Mr. Asquth
First because Mr.. Asquith is man, and an
elderly man at that, and therefore is entitled to
chivalrous regard
Second because even il he is a combination OF
Ananias and Dick Turpin. he is, after all, Prime
Minister of England and therefore is Right Hon
orable man.
Third because there was serious danger of mar
