FIRE CHIEF
LOSES TRIP
Council Will Not Send Official
to New York Convention
at City's Expense
Mr.. KANE PRESIDES
OVER SOLONS MEETING

City Councilman James Kane, Of
the Fourth ward, Democratic minor
ity leader in Council enjoyed the dis
tinction last night O. presiding over
Council in the absence Of President
William p White, whose brother died
this week.
Councilman Kane also is member
of the finance committee and is open
ly opposed to paying the expenses Of
Fire Chief j. Morton Ainscow to the
annual convention of fire chiefs in
New York next month. Consequently
when the question of fire chief at
tending the convention again came up
in Council last night, as acting Presi-
dent Mr.. Kane was in a position to
better handle the proposition. When
the acting president finished with
matter the friends Of Chief Ainscow
were willing to abandon the idea Of
sending hi. to New York.
A lively tilt followed the introduc-
tion by Councilman Williams, chair
man of the fire committee of the fol-
lowing resolution:
adopted the report of the fire COM
mittee relative to the sending of the
chief of the Wilmington Fire De-
partment to the convention in New
York September / to 6; therefore
be ii
Resolved, That City Council ap-
propriate from the miscellaneous ap-
preparation the sum of SIS to pay
the expenses OF Morton Ainscow,
chief of the Wilmington Fire Depart
ment, at the convention.
Mr.. Williams wanted the resolution
adopted but Councilman Slower rose
TO a point of order. He claimed a
resolution similar to this one was
presented and adopted by Council
two weeks ago.
President Pro Tenn Kane agreed
with Mr. Stover that the resolution
was out of order. He explained that
the fire committee has funds of it's
own and can send the chief if It wants
to, and tlen present a voucher for
his bill of expenses.
Mr.. Williams insisted on the adop-
tion of the resolution as read and he
called for the yea and nay vote on it.
Mr.. Kane said he would haze to rule
against the motion and sustain the
point of order, and he expressed the
hope that Mr.. Williams would not
press the situation and compel him
to take this action. He said Coun-
ell cannot transfer funds without
the consent of the finance commit
tee
Councilman Haney said the com
mittee could send the chief to the
convention, make out a voucher and
have it approved.
Mr.. Stover said he is in a position
to know that the ~ity auditor will not
approve any bill for the fire chiefs
expenses to New York. He declared
that there will be a court Injunction
to prevent the chief from going to
the convention if such action becomes
necessary.
Mr.. Williams did not insist further
on the adoption of the resolution.

RUSSIA TO HAVE STATE PAPER
Will Disclose Details of Passport Trou-
BILE With United States.

News has been received from St.
Petersburg that the Russian govern
t is intending to publish a state pa
at the end Of the month on Rus
h-American relations, in which it
II set forth the Russian standpoint
the passport question, rs wei, as the
fcumstances leading to the Russian
american conflict, together with cop
les of notes exchanged between both
governments.
At a meeting held recently at the
Russian ministry Of commerce to de-
eide upon the course to be pursued on
the expiration Of the commercial treaty
with the United States 1t was decided
for the present not to make any altera-
ton In the existing customs duties on
American imports unless such action
should be necessitated by American
discrimination against Russian exports.
One report says that the passport
question cannot be further discussed
because the manner and form in which
the question was raised by the United
States was a serious offense to Russia
as a great power. Under other condi-
tions-that is, had America broached
the subject in a more diplomatic and
considerate Fashionable czar Is report
ed to have said that the question might
have found a different and favorable
solution

MONEY TRUST.

The following letter (from which
the foregoing figures are taken) en-
titled Facts About Banking Con-
centration," was published in the
New York Evening Post of December
7th, from the pen of A. Piatt An
drew, formerly Assistant Secretary
OF the Treasury of the United States.
1t is especially interesting at this
time, when the public mind is con-
centrated on the so called Money
Trust.
An impression seems to have be-
come current that the tendency of
banking in this country is toward
concentration and monopoly. 1t has
been widely voiced in the press, on
the stump, and in the halls of Con-
gress. 1t has been popularity ac-
cepted, and, as frequently happens
with popular bugbears, no one seems
to have taken the trouble to submit
1t to the sober test of facts.
A Tendency Against Concentration.
An examination of the reports OF
the Controller of the Currency for
the current year in connection with
those of earlier years suggests some
conclusions, however, that are widely
at variance with the prevailing
views. The Controllers figures, in
fact, show that, contrary to the pop
ular belief, the actual tendency dur
ing recent years among our banks
has been toward the rapid multiple
cation of their number and an ever
widening diffusion of their capital
and resources.

SHE lNSPECTS STRANGE
CLOSE TO NATURE CLUB.
French Woman Writer Finds Clothes
less Idea Is Chaste.

Marguerite lie Fur, the well known
French writer, recounts in an article
In the next issue of lie Mercure de
France how for the purposes of investi-
cation she recently paid visit to the
Treyabund Society of Men and Wom-
en-, founded three years ago in Berlin
by DR.. Kuster for the exercise of sports
and games in a state of nature.
The Freyabund possesses at Lank-
witz. on the outskirts of the German
capital, large park, securely closed
in from the eyes Of the curious and
containing level fields, shady alleys
and swimming pon6s. Here the men,
bers, who belong about equally to both
sexes, meet together several times Il
week, when the weather is sufficiently
mild.
Nine. lie Eolr states that after long
conversation with the founder, during
which she became convinced of the alb
solute parity Of both the ideals and the
practice of the society, she decided to
accept Dr. Kuster's invitation to see for
herself what it was like. She accord
ingly joined the club and one fine morn
ing journeyed to the park, where the
Freyabund have their air baths. She
describes her own experiences thus:
"I wandered across the sunny lawns
and along the shaded paths, experienc-
ing intense childish pleasure at feeling
myself nearer the flowers, trees and
streams.
Joyous and free like the light where
with l was bathed and penetrated, |
found in myself ussuspected treasures
of sympathy and goodness and had an
intense impression Of participating in
the unity and harmony Of things.
"When, in the evening, l resumed my
clothes it was with real regret The
contact of linen and stuff produced at
first a frankly disagreeable impress
sion"
Since then, says the writer, she has
repeatedly renewed her experience
without a discordant note ever break
ing in.
"Having lost my false shame, feel
myself freed once and for all from the
false ideas which centuries Of conven-
ton had implanted In me, and now l
realize that truth Is essentially chaste,
that the admiration Of beauty may be
devoid of morbidity and, in fact, be-
lieve that thus acquired little Of the
antique and happy naiveness Of the
women of Hellas."
Nine. LIE Fur adds that on none of
these occasions was there the slightest
breach of modesty by anybody.

MUSKRAT HOUSES.

All along the Delaware river you
will see, If you are observant, little
mounds from the size of a bushel
basket up to the size of one ordinary
haycock, which look like heaps of
leaves. These are muskrat houses
built of leaves and sticks and plas-
tered up with mud very much re-
sembling beaver houses, only much
smaller. These little houses are Of
ten occupied by as many as ten or
fifteen rats. They are usually built
around a small bush or tree to hold
them from washing away in high
water. But very often you will see
them standing on a gravel bar out in
the middle of the stream with not a
bush or tree to hold them; and so
well are they built that the water
will rise and flow entirely over them
without carrying them away. Some
old settlers say that when you see
muskrat houses along the river it is
a sure sign of a mild winter. 9th
ers say just the reverse and that it
means cold and long winter. These
little huts are very plentiful along
the river this winter.-Downsville

Mans Provender May Hereafter Be In
Form of Tasteiess Powder.
How soon mankind'S food will be
limited to a tastelesS powder is the
question which scientists are endeavor-
ing to answer The problem is due to
NJ. Effront the distinguished Belgian
chemist, who not being content with
having manufactured a substitute for
meat, composed Of the refuse food OBJ
tained from hotels, ETC., has turned his
attention to the utilization of the nour-
ishing elements which form the basis
of hay and forage.
NJ. Effront's argument is that 1t is
unnecessary that sheep and cattle
should transform these into the com
plex product butchers meat, which is
only of nutrltiVe use to man after 1t
has been digested and split up into its
simple constituents.
Accordingly the investigator hopes to
replace these animals by composing a
chemical food from the simple elements
of pasturage. The composite food has
already been discovered, but whether
ut is palatable has not yet been made
public. At any rate, N. Effront conf
identity predicts that the food problem
|swill finally be solved by cheap, taste
less white powder OF immense nutri-
tive value.
