WAR PRISONERS.

The treatment of prisoners of war varies as greatly as the interpretations which are made of the rules of war. The disposition to retaliate for acts of a bellfgerent by taking it out on the prisoners is one that has long been in vogue regardless of the improved and constantly improving conditions of civ i1ization.
 Whatever his treatment the position of a prisoner of war cannot be looked upon as an enviable one. He stands in the way of receiving all the out bursts of enTnity that results from the acts or the operations of his country men, even though it is but right that he should expect and receive humane treatment.
 Those were ugly charges which Lord Kitchener made when he declared he was forced to accept as indisputably true the report that 'our prisoners have been stripped and maltreated in various ways and in some cases the evidence goes to prove, that they have been shot in cold blood. Our officers have been wantonly insulted and ire quently struck" And such being the case, it is not surprising that he should add that in view of the posi- ton of Germany as a great military nation, a better standard of military honor and conduct should have been displayed.
 Whether the determination of the British to segregate the German sub marine prisoners for special treatment as an expression of highest moral dis approval of German methods though in conformance with the Hague rules, actuated Germany to put into opera ton such treatment of prisoners as complained of can only be surmised, but it is apparently the old story of retaliation and regrettable as 1t is it has to be looked upon as one of the aeconpaniments of war. General Sher- man certainly knew what he was talk ing about.

FARM FOR lNERRIATES.

The house in concurrence with the senate has rejected, upon unfavorable report, the bill for a farm for inebri- ates. The unfavorable report comes from the disposition to pay due regard to the condition of the states finances and in that respect there is not much cause for surprise except when there is revealed the dispositionu to push through the bill for a revision of the statutes at a recognized cost of $42,- 900 without considering how much more it is likely to cost or that it can be accomplished by competent men at a much lower expenditure. The state is considered in one instance. but not in the other.
 The question of expense has been the one big objection to the bill es- tablishing an inebriate farm and it has been realized that if it failed it would be on that ground as was the case two years ago.
 The suggestion has been made to the legislators. in view of just such a contingency, that it is possible to put this plan of a state farm to a prac- tical test without requiring any such outlay as the bill called for This is the proposal that s5,000 be appropri- ated TOT the necessary expense of fit ting up building which is already available on the property of the Nor wich state hospital for the carrying out of the objects of the inebriate bill under the direction of the hospital authorities. Such would permit of a start being made in the matter and 1t would also furnish a practical demon stration of the value of such an un- 1-s-
 It is a matter which ought not to be cast aside without serious consider atfon since 1t will mean the carrying out of the ideas, which the committee admits it favors. and it at the same time eliminates the expense and no more favorable proposition for deter mining the success or failure of such an institution in Connecticut could be asked.

UNLICENSED DRIVERS.

It is required by the laws of Con necticut that every operator of an au- tomobfle must have license. It was revealed this week at a hearing be- fore the state secretary that there are some at least who are participating in the habit of loaning or renting their autos to drivers who have not been given the right to operate cars.
 This not only reveals a circumven- ton of the law. but it discloses a dan gerous practice which ought not to prevail and it Is a proper view Of the situation which Secretary Burnes takes when he announces that the renting of an auto to those not having an operators license in this state must stop.
 It can be readily understood that there Is an evasion of responsibility when unlicensed drivers are permit ted to operate cars and if 1t is going to be permitted in one case, or in one section. it is simply making a farce out of the requirement. and overcom- ing the whole purpose of the law.
 How general the practice has become is not disclosed. but it was brought to light as the result of an accident occurring under just such circum- stances. It is not sufficient for the owner of the car to think that the person to whom he rents or loans his car is a careful Or skilful driver. There is a statute provision covering just that point and if it is worth anything 1t should be observed and enforced There are accidents enough in which licensed drivers figure without inviting more by disrespecting the law.

he past can be expected to be notice

the past can be expected to be notice able.
 During the past year, even though immigration showed a falling off there were many aliens excluded, the total number being 33.o41, or 2.3 per cent. of the total number of immigrants and non-immigrants applying for admis- sion. There were 15.745 or nearly half who were denied entry because they were likely to become a public charge, 6.537 because they were afflicted with physical or mental defects affecting ability to earn a living. 3,257 because of tuberculosis or contagious diseases, 1,274 because they were afflicted with serious mental defects and 2,7S3 be- cause they were contract laborers.
 That there will be an increased number in most of these classes who will be anxious to come to this coun- try is to be expected but when 1t is stated by Commissioner General Cam inetti that the existing law can and should exclude more of such aliens than 1t does it can be readily under stood that extraordinary vigilance must be exerted from now on. This in particular should apply to the defec- tives, mental and physical, of whom thcre are already too many in this country who never should have been admitted

PRESIDENTS PHILIPPINE STAND

A cabled message which was sent to Governor General Harrison of the Philippines by President Wilson fol- lowing the adjournment of congress has just been made public. It deals with the Philippine question and the efforts which were made for and against new legislation at the recent session and though it attributes the defeat of the Jones bill to the assur- ance of ultimate independence as con- tained in the preamble. the president expresses his confidence that it will pass at the next session and declares that "the bill will have my support until it passes"
 From the very taking over of the Philippines there has been no other thought on the part of this country than that they would ultimately become independent, but it has been resolved with equal positiveness that they should be thoroughly prepared for the self administration of their own af- fairs before they are left to their own guidance. It is a policy which takes into consideration not only our obli- cations to them, but their own vel fare, and with a knowledge on the part of the Filipinos that our inten- tions have not changed there Is little to be obtained by stirring up the cry of independence when they are not in a position to receive it.
 There are too many examples show ing the folly of any such action for while the Philippines are growing and developing and are going to be in time able to take care of themselves, it is impossible to overlook the situation .faH, f1e l-, a licsAon this continent and adjacent islands where self government exists. The Philippines will make greater permanent progress continuing as they are than being thrown over to them selves and allowed to slump back into the conditions which prevail today in Mexico

Campaign Against Egypt.

The Frankfurter Zeitung's cotre- spondent in Jerusalem sends a long account of the Turkish campaign against Egypt. as obtained from an in terview with General von Kressenstein, the German offer in command. The account says in part:
 '"The object of the expedition was a forceful reconnaissance Of the state Of affairs in the Canal district. That was all that was intended, although it was scented itself to inture the canal 1t would not be neglected. The net re- suit has been to show that an expedi- tion across the desert can be carried out successfully.
 "The Turkish plans were gone nor beast suffered hunger or thirst; the sick list was one in a. thousand, although no tents were employed.
 "A sand storm enabled the expedi- tion to approach the canal unobserved, and the forces were preparing to lay their pontoons across the canal before they were attacked by infantry scouts. After remaining for thirty hours in contact with the enemy the expedition voluntarily relinduished its positions and retired to the desert in perfect order. Two machine guns. rendered useless by the sand, were left behind in the enemy's hands
 "The expedition thought it better not to renew their attack, as the num- Der of the enemy's ships had greatly increased. On the return across the desert nothing was seen of the enemy except an aeroplane which hovered over the moving troops during the first two days march. The return was made slowly in order to avoid fatisu- ing the troops.
 "rhe expedition suffered only slight loss, and the fire of the British war ships did it no material damage. The British, however, lost & cruiser in the canal owing to a fortunate shot from the Turkish heavy battery. Another cruiser was put out of the firing line and there was @ severe explosion on a third. What further damage was done could not be judged owing to the great distance.
 "The British officers had great dim- culty in handling their men" Djemal Pasha has issued another proclamation to the population of Sy- ria, in which he says:
 Everyone must be convinced that shall proceed with the conquest of Egypt. The army under my command is being prepared for a decisive stroke, Everything is being conducted with the greatest energy, and the livelesti &C., tivity reigns among the troops. ex- pect Syrians to wait calmly and con- fidently for victory. which is certainly in store. If, however. any persons spread false news. calculated to dis turb the population, they must ex- poet the severest punishment for me"

weeks. and states that the Yale men
 will rival Harvard's team of veterans.
 Amos P. Wilder, secretary Of the
 Yale in China movement, has, of late, written several articles in the univer-
 sity publications in order to interest sion work of the East. The appoint
 ments in which he Is endeavoring to interest the graduating class are of one, two and three year duration. Yan, the Yale college of China, was estab- lished for the highest education Of the youths of Human, and the adjoining provinces, one of the most denseiy populated districts in the world. The institution is 8 school and college, CO., ordinated with an important medical work. The men who go out on the educational side, as teachers, give in- struction to the student body of Al, in everything except the Chinese Ian hands of a native faculty. Most of those who have gone out on tempor- ary appointments have concluded to remain in the service. They have re- turned to the United States at the end of their novitiates, and have en- gagged in advanced study in prepara- tion for some one of the chairs of the permanent faculty. There are four or five such men at work in the univer- sity at the present time. The need at this time is for teachers of science. Up to date 16 Yale men have gone to Yali., Among the men who MT: Wilder has named as those who will take up teaching in China is MT.

Stories of the War
Desperate Fighting in carpathians.

Long trains of Austrian prisoners are arriving daily at Kiev with stories of the desperate fighting in the snow clad forests of the Carpathian passes.
 The appearance of the prisoners Is by no means as bad as had been paint ed. Most of them look healthy and and with the exception of their foot-gear their clothing is in fair con- dition. The Austrian boot reaches only above the ankle and is less effective against dirt and the wear and tear Of campaigning than the Russian high boot. The Russians have assisted the captives by giving them high boots free. Few of these Austrian prisoners appear to have suffered from hunger. According to their own accounts to an Associated Press correspondent. they received three meals daily even when fighting in the Carpathian passes far from the base of supplies.
 The best of relations exist between the Austrian prisoners and their Rus sian captors. During a halt in the procession, the friendly Russian sen tries may be seen trying to converse by signs with their captives, who try to reply in a feeble mixture of Ger man and Russian. Whenever there is an opportunity sentries and prisoners gather together and exchange ciga- rettes and stories of their experience in the trenches.
 Among the Hungarians there is a large percentage Of very young men, from which the inference is drawn that the Hungarian male population is be- ing heavily drawn upon. Out of every thousand prisoners taken in the Car pathians, about fifty are Germans, which bears out the previous stories that there Is a sprinkling of German regiments along the entire fighting line in the Carpathians.
 In addition to the prisoners taken at Przemysl, the Russians appear to have taken some 30,000 Hungarians and Germans in the Carpathian battles during the third week of March.
