Japan. For any member of our Con-
gress publicly to predict inevitable
war with any country Is an act not
only of great imprudenee but of inn
pudence as we'll, What the natural
effect of Mr.. Mann's speech will be In
the Far East is well stated by the
New York Globe:
IF Manns, Hobsons, and Hearsts
excite fear and distrust of Japan
among Americans, and the Manns,
HobsonS. and Hearsts of Japan con-
temporaneously excite fear and dis
trust of the United States among the
Japanese, it is conceivable that trou-
BILE may some time arrive. The game
of arousing mutual national antipa-
thies Is self-developing one. Mann's
speech will be quoted in Japan by a
Japanese Mann to prove how hostile
is the United States. Then the words
of the Japanese Mann will be tele-
graphed to this country and will be
quoted by our Mann as proof of the
increasing bellicosity of Japan. And

South American Trade.
From the Philadelphia Record
The reason why South American
trade balances have been settled in
London and Paris is that the trade
has been triangular We exported
breadstuffs, provisions and the
products OF mines and forests to Eu-
rope; Europe exported manufactured
goods TO South America, and South
America shipped coffee, rubber, and
in much smaller quantities, hides
wool, sugar and other commodities
generally crude. to this country. AS
South America owed Europe, and We
owed South America, settlement was
most easily effected by our paying in
London and Paris.
But for several years past our ex-
ports of food and raw materials &c
Europe have been either relatively
or absolutely declining, while we have
been rapidly increasing our exports
of manufactured goods to every par
of the world. South America bought
manufactured goods mainly in Eu.
rope, partly because European prices
were below ours, and party because
European capital financed production
in South america.

YONKERS, N. Y, Oct 21.--"How
many carriers are required to support
a lady's hose?'' This question was
put up TO City Judge Beall yesterday
when Miss Edna Smith summoned
Charles Yeganian, an outftter to
court. Miss Smith bought a pair of
corsets at Yeganian's store, but when
she found they had only four gar
ters attached she vainly asked for
her money back. All 1914 model stays
have six hose supporters, she said
Judge Beall tried TO straighten the
tangle, and had about reached the
point of calling expert witnesses as
to the number of garters necessary
to keep a lady's stockings from
wrinkling when Miss Smith became
exasperated, threw the corsets on the
judges desk and left the courtroom,
expressing the hope that Yeganian
and the eorsets would go elsewhere.
Her contempt of court was over

This did not seem to make any differ

alongside from the flagship.
We found out that evening that this
vessel was the Spanish gunboat Cal

the southern part Of the Philippines
for a long time and had not heard
about the war, and, the time OF her
cruise being finished, she was now re-
turning to Manila. The officers and

when the first gun was fired by the

the shot came across the bow Of their

But when the second shot was fred

In THE Everyday Life of Abra-
ham Lincoln Mr.. f. r.. Browne in
cludes an amusing anecdote told by
Admiral Porter about the presidents
short visit to the front in the latter
part of March, 1865. Mr. Lincoln had
changed his quarters from the River
Queen to the Malvern, Admiral Por-
ter's flagship, which was then lying in
the James river. near City Point. Ad
miral Porter says:
The Malvern was a small vessel with
very poor cabin accommodations and
was not at all fitted to receive high
personages. She was captured block
ade runner. / offered the president my
bed, but he positively declined 1t and
chose to sleep In small stateroom
outside the cabin that my secretary
occupied 1t was only 6 feet long by
AZ feet wide. a very tiny place to hold
the president of the United States, but
Mr.. Lincoln seemed pleased with it.
When he came to breakfast the next
morning l asked how he had slept.
II slept WELL" be answered, "but you
can't put a long sword in a short
scabbard. / was too long for that
berth" Then l remembered that he
was over six feet four inches and
that the berth was only six feet! That
day while we were away from the
ship all the carpenters were put to
work They took down the stateroom
partitions and enlarged the room to
eight feet by six and a half feet. A
mattress four feet wide was put In
| the new berth.
| Nothing was said to the president
| about the change in his quarters, but
| the next morning he came out Of the
| room smiling and said, "a miracle
happened last night. l shrank six
inches in length and about foot side
ways. / got somebody else's big pill
low and slept in a better bed than
| had on the River Queen" He enjoyed
| it greatly, but ! think If | had giver

would not have found fault That

Mother Jones Will Return
To Trinidad.

Denver, Colo, March 27 The
Colorado militia has admitted that
holding of military prisoners in
communi ,ado is illegal by the re-
lease and deportation of Mother
Jones on the eve of petition for a
writ of habeas corpus being heard
in the state supreme court.
The 80 year old angel of the coal
camps has been held incommurica-
do in the military bull pen for 9
weeks. There was no charge
against her. The military, how
ever. has long since set aside that
part of the constitution providing
for free speech aud free press, and
she was jailed because she said she
intended to exercise her constitu-
tional rights.
To forestall a reversal of the no.
torious Moyer decision, the militia
released her and deported her to
Denver. She was told that Gov
ernor Ammons wished to see her.
1t was Pa.pable frame up Of the
militia to prevent decision of the
supreme court as to whether citi.
zen of the United States can exer-
else her constitutional rights in
Colorado.
Mother Jones. however, will re-
turn to Trinidad and give the mill
tia another opportunity to take
away her constitutional rights.
The coal operators admitted the
success of the strike when they an
nounnced that they will sue indi-
vidual members and officers of the

900. The operators seem to have
some little doubt that a half dozen
coal miners will be able to pay the
81 900, 900 SO they will ask for bod y
judgements.
The coal operators admit that
the strike has caused them financial
loss and shut down their coal mines
1t is an interesting admission when
one considers that way back in De.
cember these same operators an
nounced that the strike was over
as far as they were concerned
They said that while so per cen
had gone ont, many had returned
and the mines were then running
at full capacity.
They also said that they hae
raiaed SIS, 900, 900 to fight the strike
The union leaders believe this func
has been exhausted and that nov

collect 81 900, 900 from the striker
and officials to enable them to keeI
up their fight.
