DYNAMITE JOHNNY
SEES PLOTS HERE
Soldier of Fortune Says Teutons
in New York Are Thick
as Flies.

Rada,ing peace and cigar smoke, a
feeble little man sat unnoticed in the
lobby Of the Hotel McAlpin yesterday
He was Dynamite Johnny" O'Brien,
hero of thousand adventures, known
in every port in the Spanish Main for
nearly half century as daring gun
runner and soldier of fortune.
"My job now is pilot in Havana Har-
bor," said Johnny. "l'm mighty fond Of
it, for Pm a regular water rat, YOU
know. | am here TO regain my health;
had a second stroke of paralysis not
long ago. But | want to get back TO
Cuba as soon as ] can"
CONDITIONS in Cuba are fine. Presi-
dent Menocal is bird of President.
I guess he'll be reelected. General
Munez, another fine man down there,
probably will oppose him in the coming
election. but every one likes the pres
ent President so much that think they
will elect him again despite his desire
TO look after his five sugar plantations
more closely"
The captain warmed when the sub
ject Of the European war was intro
duced. you got to give those darned
Dutchmen credit for what they are do
ing" said he. They are spending all
kinds OF money right here in New York,
but you folks don't seem to realize
that they are all about you as thick as
flies. France and England don't know
how to spend money, or they haven't
il to spend.
"This Mexican situation Of ours" he
continued, "has but one solution. You
have to go down there and kill all those
Indians. They never will stop fighting
among themselves"

SAYS DENVER WOMEN
SOLD VOTES FOR $50
Representative Stirs st. Louis
Suffragists at Luncheon.

st. Louis, Nov. ga hot wrangle
was brought on at a suffrage luncheon
here to-day when Representative Meek
er, an anti-suffragist and guest of
honor, charged that in a certain suf-
frage city business women sold their
votes for $50 each, while society wom-
ems votes could be bought with a
theatre party or box of gloves.
Instantly several sutfragists were on
their feet demanding TO know what
city was meant.
Meeker replied that it was Denver,
but he refused TO tell who gave him
the information He said there was
an element of danger in giving women
the vote in that they would 80 to
greater length than men in pushing
any movement they favored.
There were replies from all parts
OF the room. some of his hearers re-
torting that this was a proof Of won
ems courage. When he tried TO leave
some of the women blocked his way
making impromptu speeches.
Mrs. Kate O'IIare declared that the
woman who sold her vote for $50
showed more intelligence than the man
who sold his for glass of beer she
said that the opponents OF suffrage IN
New York were of "sleak, we'll
fed tyne like Mr. Meeker." The Rep
resentative replied that he would Ike

have time, and he was permitted TO de-

APOLOGY ASKED
FOR zEALANDIA
Steamer Searched Within
Three-Mile Limit, U. S.
Consul Reports.

Washington, Nov. 22.-Great Britain
will be asked to apologize for the forci-
BILE search of the American steamer
Zealandia by British cruiser at Pro-
greso, Mexico. Contradicting the asser-
ton of the cruisers captain. who said
that the Zealanda was searched n
quarter of mile outside the three
mile limit, the American Consul at
Progreso reported TO the State De-
partment to-day that the port author
tiles and the captain OF the American
battleship Kenucky agreed that the
vessel lay only 2.66 miles from the
shore.
As the Zealandia has sailed for New
York, however, and was not molested
by the British cruiser, there is no ques-
ton of indemnity involved A State
Department official said to-day that the
United States would be satisfied with
apologies in such cases provided they
did not happen too often" The Next
can government is expected TO protest
to Great Britain against the invasion
of territorial waters by warship.
The Department is taking no action
on the Amer can Transatlantic Com
pany's protest against the seizure Of
the Genesee, but will await the decl-
sion of the prize court in the Hooking
case. The steamship company, which
the British government asserts is Ger
narrowed, has offered no proof 20
the contrary to the Department.

Quality of Mercy Strained SIS

"The quality of mercy is exceedingly

husband S.. The court was as little
moved by the knowledge that Mrs.
Lewis is chairman of the speakers

ASSOCIATION of women lawyers, as it
was by her pleading.
Lewis, who lives at All East Eighty
fifth Street, and is an attendance Off

Magistrate Fitch judged him guilty of
contempt. When the fine was imposed
Mrs. Lewis came 10 the rescue and
asked the magistrate to set aside the
conviction.
"Who are you?" asked the court.
I'm his wife, said Mrs. Lewis.

Lewis refused to pay the fine and

Wave of Economy Sweeps
Away Parliar1enfs Quilts
Members of House of Commons Forced to Write with
Ordinary Pens and Furnish Own Matches-War
Costing Britain $4,000 Minute.

come II could pay for the war entirely
out of its yearly savings, but Mr.
Montague knows as well as any man
that the thing is impossible.
"Before the war $4,000, 100000 year
was spent In food by the people of this
country. To get the same amount OF
food this year costs S2,o6O ,OOO, YOU.
Higher prices, therefore. swallow $685.
600 900. or nearly one-half OF our nor,
NAL savings in peace time, II we spend
now as then. Every sixteen persons,
men, women and children, must work
to provide food for a soldier, to say
nothing of arms and ammunition ana
all the material of war;
Great Britain's imports are eHceeu-
ing exports by nearly s5,OOO,oOO day
and consequently depreciating ioreleh
exchange, so that England really pays
about 8 per cent more than the nonii-
nal prices for commodities bought IN
America. Restriction OF imports Is
urged as one of the most obvious prac-
tical methods Of economy.
That government expenses must De
decreased and the gap between exports
and imports narrowed Is generally
agreed on. A revival Of the party OF
protection is noticeable symptom.
Some protectionist papers demand a
high tariff on imports, and one so
framed that the colonies will have
preference, diverting business from
the United States to them. Thus the
British Empire might live on its own
resources as far as foodstuffs are con-
cerned. it is contended. and might
spend its money among its own people
as Germany is doing.
Lord Davenport told the house OF
Lords recently that the imports OF
non-essential things through the porl
OF London alone reached sl25,0oo,oVO
a year. He proposed total prohio'tion
of the import Of Injuries.

tBy Cable to Tbs Tfibuns.l

London, Nov. 22.-The wave Of war
economy that is sweeping over England
engulfed the House of Commons to-
day, when the members were deprived
of their time-honored quilts and forced
10 write with ordinary steel pens, and
were cut off also from the usual sup
ply of free matches in their smoking
rooms. To the food Of angry protests
that echoed through the Parliamentary
halls attendants replied that these
were only the first steps in the direc-
tion of the national economy so urgent
ly demanded in recent speeches in the
House of Commons.
The sword of economy is now hang
ing over the heads of London's police,
who may soon be instructed to use
both sides of the paper when taking
dispositions.
The war is now costing England ST.
900 a minute, according TO "The Even
ing News" which publishes the fol-
lowing statistics to-day:
"The national income before the war
amounted to $4,000 q minute. II,
therefore, we paid for this war out Of
our income we should be left with
$4,000 a minute to live on. But before
the war we spent $4,000 a minute,
saving only $4,000 minute. To pay
for the war we must, therefore, save
another $4,000 a minute or add to the
national debt by that amount.
"By increased taxation or conscrip-
tion we would be compelled TO save an
other $4,000 a minute. At present the
nation is borrowing $4,000 minute,
or nearly half its normal income. If
the nation could follow the advice of
Mr. Montague and live on half its in
