WOMEN FAIL TO AID
GIRL "CUN CARRIER"
Court Sends Her to Prison,
Despite Settlement Work
ers' Appeal.
ODD EXCUSES GIVEN
FOR WEAPONS BY 43
Judge Rosalsky, However, Fines
80 as High as $3.50. and Adds
Jail Sentences.

When Sara Lippman. sixteen years old.
OF No. l9s Seventh avenue, was arraigled
before Judge Swami in General Sessions
Yesterday. charged with carrying a re
volyer. several women settlement workers
begged that she might be discharged.
Her counsel explained that the weapon
found in her possession belonged to
"Buh" Lustig. who was shot and killed in
a gang fight i'm "Humpty' Jackson's sa-
loon. He said that the girl was what v3s
known as gun bagGer" and had been

Forty-three excuses some of them orig
nal and others tnat sounded like Old &C
ouaintances. were given to Judge Rosal-
sky in General Sessions yesterday. when
as many men were on trial for carrying
revolvers aud other weapons in violation
Of the Sullivan law. Excuses. however
were not well received. and thirty-Givs CT
the men were sentenced to pay fines as
nigh as $3.50 each and serve up to six
years and six months in prison. The 1e-
naming eight cases were held over for
investigation.

born Americans Italians headed the list
with eighteen: those born here OF Tor
eign parents were next. with four; China,
Greece and Belgium tied for third place
with two each, while Austria Hungary
Germany, Argentina and Ireland were
represented by one each.
The most common excuse was that the
prisoner had found the weapon and had
taken possession Of II with the intention
of turning II over TO the police at the
first opportunity. The opportunity. now
ever, never seemed to have arrived. One
said that his younger brother had found
a revolver and that he took it to keep the
child from injuring himself. Another
who said he had musical ability, asserted
that he used the lead blackjack he was
found carrying for a drumstick.
William O'Sulivan, when asked how he
happened to be carrying revolver, SAID
that two men had come TO his wfe's
boarding house and had started fight.
He threw them both out of the house and
took a revolver away from one of them.
The fact that spring is coming and II
will soon be time to fish again formed
the excuse of another. who was charged
with carrying a slungshot He explained
that he was going to use the weapon for

cleavage between the King and the

law that the King should consult only
his ministers. To make matters worse,
The Sunday Times alleges that the
King told MIR. Asquith: The Parlia-

Government in Weak Position.

It seems impossible that the govern
ment can hold on much longer. but II
seems equally certain that the Opposi-
tion will fall in the pit that they have
digged for themselves, and that the
campaign will be chiefly fought on the
lines as TO whether Parliament, the
King or the army is to rule. with tho
election outlook for the government
much better than fortnight ago.
Mr.. Asquith's reelection is a fore
gone conclusion. He has represented
East Fife sin e 1856. His last major
ity was 1899 and he will have the same
opponent, Colonel Sprot, this time. No
tice Of the election will probably be
filed to-day and the polling will take
place eight days hence.
Another political sensation of the
first Importance is likely TO be forth
coming to-day. as Lord Morley accord
ing TO general expectation. will In the
course Of the debate in the House Of
Lords announce his retirement from
the government. This will considerably
weaken the ministerial front bench in
the upper chamber. although Lord
Crew IS now back in his place. The
court circular stated at Buckingham
Palace yesterday that Lord Morley had
an audience with the King.

Ovation for Premier.
When Premier Asquith entered the
House he was greeted with a great
ovation from the members on the Min
isterial side. He shortly afterward rose
before the crowded chamber to make
his promised statement on the army
crisis.
The Premier said that after full con-
sideration Field Marshal French and
Adjutant General Ewart had persisted
in their desire to be relieved of their
offices, and in the public interest he
deeply deplored the decision of these
valiant officers. and ! cannot speak too
warmly or gratefully Of the ability. 10y
atty and devotion with which they have
served the state and the army, and
will. | hope, continue TO serve
Premier Asquith added that Sir John
French and Sir John Ewart had asked
him to say they we're in entire accord
with the statement he had made to the
House of Commons on Friday.
In announcing that King George had
signified his approval of mis- assumption
of the War portfolio Premier Asquith
concluded:
Il have taken the law 10 the highest
legal authorities to obtain their opinion,
and all the lawyers are agreed that
must resign from the House of Com
mons. I therefore, in accordance with
the law. retire from the House until my
constituents shall have given their ap
proval OF my acceptance OF this office.
In a brief personal statement Colonel
Seely told the House there was no diff
ference between himself and his col
leagues in the Cabinet on any point OF
policy or principle. He said he had
pressed his resignation because there
appeared. although such was not his in
tention. TO have been a bargain with
the army officers regarding the service
they should render to the crown.
Neither had Sir John French nor Sir
John Ewart The intention Of making
such a bargain.
Colonel Seely said he did not wonder,
however, that the House had resented
the idea that there should have been
such bargain. These two officers had
i'm these peculiarly ironcal circum-
stances felt II to he their duty TO re
sign. and it was clearly the duty of the
Secretary of War to do the same, In
order that it might never appear that a
minister of the crown had made bar
gain with crown servants regarding
what should be done.
Viscount Morley. in replying to a
question put by Lord Curzon in the
House of Lords, admitted that he had
offended against q Cabinet rule. Asked
how it happened that, IF the govern
ment felt compelled to withdraw the
paragraphs and Coloney Secly to re-
sign. we still have the good fortune OF
seeing Vscount Morley still in charge
Of this House" the President of the
Council replied
II will answer that question more or
less satisfactorily tomorrow. perhaps.
The debate following Premier As
quiths withdrawal was tame. Win

who tried to seduce the army. He
quoted from the Unionist leaders
speeches, in which they advised the
army to refuse to serve against Ulster.

heard in that house. He termed Mr..
Churchlls charges foul falsehoOds." "

Scheme for Democratic Army.

The trouble with the army over the
Ulster crisis has resulted in free in
terchange Of views between individual
Cabinet ministers and prominent Labor
and Radical members regarding a
workable scheme for democratizing the
army. one of these schemes, which is
commended by one of the ministers
concerned in ascertaining the views OF
government supporters on the subject
contains the following provisions; In
event Of further trouble officers would
be cashiered by the wholesale and their
places filed by a general move-up FOR
Junior officers willing TO serve and by
promotion to the commissioned ranks OF
a large proportion Of rankers. The sys-
tenn Of offering the army is TO be
drasticallv amended, and the govern"
ment will provide subsidies toward re-
ducing the cost Of training and mess
allowances. with the object Of throwing
the army open TO the sons of the middle
and working classes.
The advantage claimed for this
scheme by its authors is that II would
break forever the caste system that
enables the army 10 he at the beck and
call of the Tory party. While the gov
ernment is not committed to any
scheme as yet, the above proposals are
being considered. along with others to
deal with any trouble that may arise.
A Precedent Created.
The decision Of MI Asquith, Prime
Minister and First Lord OF the Treas
urv. 10 become also Secretary for War
creates a precedent, the two offices OF
Premier and War Minister never before
having been held simultaneously by the
game man. Mr. Gladstone, however,
held the office Of Chancellor Of the Ex-
cbeoucr with his Premiership, and Lord
Salisbury. while Prime Minister, occu-

BubOniC Plaque Transmitted by fleaS

The Importance of the flea in the
transmission of bubonic plague is 10Y
generally recognized. The Commission
for the Investigation of the Plague in
India indicated as the result of its work
during l906-97 that transmission Of
plague from one animal to another
could readily be brought about by heas;
and that only in the presence OF heas
did an epizootic among rats or guinea
pigs ensue. Close contact with in
fected animals, including the devouring
of infected carcasses, was occasionally
followed by a case of plague, but no
| spread of the disease occurred. Ami
! mails allowed foreman in animal houses
in which plague had occurred and in
plague-infected native quarters became
infe cted; but no infection resulted, ac-
cording to The Journal of the American
Medical Association, if the simplest
measures were taken to prevent the
access of fleas.

A DANGEROUS
PRACTICE.
RAILROAD COMPANY APPEALS TO
MISSISSIPPI FARMERS IN THE IN.
TEREST OF ITS PATRONS AND
EMPLOYEES.

The killing of live stock, while tres
passing upon the waylands of American
railroads, has for years been gradually
increasing, and more lately to an alarm
ing extent, resulting in an unnecessary
waste and another contribution to the
high cost of living. In Mississippi, the
situation is especially bad, as evidenced
by the fact that, on the waylands of
the Illinois Central and Yazoo & Mis-
sissippi Valley Railroads alone, more
than six thousand head of stock, or "a
per cent of the total for the system, are
annually killed, this while but % per
cent of our total mileage is operated in
your State: Claims paid on this &C.
count have increased to a point where
the resulting expense now amounts to
a tremendous annual drain upon our
gross revenues and, as with the fake
damage suit industry and other evils
from which we have suffered, it is one
of those charges which, in the last
analysis, affects materially the pocket
books of the people themselves.
We have gone to considerable expense,
in the way of fencing, constructing cat
tie guards, etc., in an endeavor to over
com the present situation, but desp tie
every effort it has grown entirely be-
yond our direction and control. 1t is
one of those troubles requiring the at
tention Of our farmer %neighbors to cor
rect, and in the interest of our patrons
and employees, whose safety is menaced
by this grave danger, we appeal for
your cooperation and support.
1t is a well known fact that trains are
frequently der allied by striking an 9TH
erwise harmless cow, and conditions are
now so bad that trainmen in Mississippi
your own home people largely-must
perform their duties under a great strain.
We appeal to you, therefore to dis
continue permitting your cattle to roam
at large and to see to it that private
gates, opening on our waylands, are
kept closed. There already is a Law
f%orbidding this practice, but we are
loath to invoke it, preferring to acquain'
the good people of Mississippi with thu
extreme urgency of the matter, feeling
that your usual fairness and regard fot
the rights and the welfare of other
+ will prompt the immediate adoption o
: necessary corrective measures.
