The regrets expressed by Dr Shay. Ter over the low estate to which Am erican diplomacy has fallen are real and worthy of appreciation What Dr. Shayler says of the need for high
 ly-trained diplomats is probably bet ter understood now than it has bee1 for a decade or more. Experience, always a costly instructor, has given
 us some lessons on this subject which we will be slow to forget.
 The present administration, with
 that childish confidence in it's omni-
 potence and omniscience from which
 it is slowly and bitterly awakening
 has shattered the corps of foreign rep
 resentatives which was slowly being developed from the old system of pure
 political patronage. This was a seri
 ous error, but candor compels the
 statement that the administration is
 not exclusively to blame. The blame lies primarily in our national conc a.t and our national contempt for the incidental fripperies that go with tn maintenance of foreign relations. Had it been otherwise. had the Am erican people taken diplomacy seri- | iously. with realization that thert are other nations just as smart as w are, there would have been no whole sale expulsion of trained diplomats But most of us have formed ouI ideas of doplimacy from the char acters on the stage and In fiction, ant l insensibly came to the conclusion tha diplomats were ornamental luxuries who lived easy lives in foreign land. at our expense.
 When we considered diplomacy ser
 iously we were proud of our "shir sleeve" brand, making the fatal mis, take of believing, because the repre- sentatives of other lands dressed +
 gaudy trappings and wore medals lix'
 coats of mail, that they possessed nc brains.

compared with a surplus OF s3,77a1 in

power to assert its rights; and we should
lay IL to heart that no nation shall ever

DETECTIVE BUREAU
DIVISIONS REDUCED
Commissioner Woods Announces
Changes Affecting 600 Men
ard Commanders.

Reduction OF the number OF divisions IN
the detective bureau from seventeen 10
nine and patrol duty for the men at
tached 10 them are features of general
shake-up of that branch Of the Police De-
partment announced by Commissioners
Woods Yesterday Six hundred men ana
their commanders are affected. The eight
extra commanders who lose their places
by the change will be assigned 10 Jake
charge Of the clerical work.
The new plan is one fathered by the
Commissioner when he was Fourth Dep
uty under Bingham and abolished when
Waldo was Commissioner. Before Blng-
hams time the detectives had always
been at Headquarters. Since then they
have been assigned to divisions with head
quarters at various precincts. Under the
Woods plan they will be divorced from
the precincts.
Putting the men on patrol, the Com
missioner believes, will make for greatly
increased efficiency. When a crime is
heard from some man reporting from
patrol may be assigned at once to the
case.
In the new arrangement Manhattan VIII
have four divisions. The Bronx, one;
Brooklyn, two, md Queens and Rich
mond, one each. Captain John ]. Cray
brother-in-law OF Charles f. Murphy and
now in charge Of Traffic Squad c. is the
first to be assigned to detective division.
He will to-day take command of the first
branch, embracing the territory south of
18th st. His associate commanders Will
be appointed during the week.

PARKER AT YALE
RAPS ROOSEVELT
Deplores Calm Reception or
Colonels Mine Strike
Statement.

Nav Haven, June I5.-Alton B. Parker
OF New York, created mild sensation
here to-day by giving his address to the
graduating class of the Yale Law schooi
a political >tinge. His topic was Tine
Csuzen and the Constitution" He at
tackled the statement OF ex-Presioeht
ROOSEVELT regarding his attitude on the
oooI mine situation and warned the pros
pectlve lawyers against the IT H. type
of man.
He said in part:
1.-THE country needs a host OF clear
headed active men in the electorate VINO
,,.,, d,scsrn and brand with the iniarH' u
deserves every assault on the constitu-
tional foundation of our government
Something is radically wrong in the
mental process OF the electorate, or else
patriotism is at its last gasp, when with
hardly a whisper of protest retired
Chief Executive may brag to the repre-
sentatives of the people Of his treason
able scheme to intrude on state rights and
otherwise violate the fundamental law by
establishing a military receivership over
coal mines pending a strike, admitting
without a suspicion of decent shame that
he had well considered that his offence
might be Improbable IL committed, I'M
peachable, Of course, only because the
acts planned would have been unconsu-
tutional and lawless
Therefore, 1 call upon you TO stand
ever ready to do battle against every
enemy Of constitutional law and constitu-
tional liberty, because you are young, be-
cause the country needs such service from
you and because as lawyers you will have
a special mission to serve faithfully in the
constitutional army
A good many of his listeners believed
that the speaker was portraying the type
represented by Colonel Roosevelt, as Mr.
Parker sees him, when he said: True
patriotism is the only foundation on
which such a service can rest; not the
oratorical type that loves the flamboyant
peroration and the applause Of the crowd !;
not the functional type that is satisfied
with the high seat at the public feast
not the stipendary sort that is happy
only in public office; not the patent medi-
newer and more nauseous cure for body
polite that needs only watchful care and
the fresh air of real freedom"

Simmons Letter Quoted.

The Simmons letter declared that the
three things which stood in the way OF
prosperity were the Mexican SITUATION
the awaited advance In freight rates ana
continued hostile legislation in Congress
1t said. in part
Especially do we recommend that no
further attempt at legislation In the mat
ter of the control OF business or passing
of antitrust laws should be continued
at this time What the country neeus
now more than anything else Is quie'
time-an absolute rest from the agitation
OF politics and assaults upon business; II
does not make any difference whether IL
is big business or little business.
I'VE therefore strongly recommend ana
earnestly hope that Congress may Dc
convinced that It has done enough law
making for the present, that the country
is absolutely tired and surfeited with po-
ltlcal agitatlons, and that the agitation
now Of the control Of business is exceed
ingly injurious and will serve TO retarn
an Improvement in business which othet-
wise would be very great and rapio'
bringing in the most desirable way the
greatest good to the greatest number.
