An Epoch for India.

In the annual report of the Rash mir Medical mission Dr. A. Neve says this year marks an epoch from which everything will date afresh. " He writes:
 Tt is certainly an epoch fo India, so many of whose gallant princes and troops are in the firing line. In future, things cannot be the same. The spirit in which we Eng fish now meet our Indian fellow sub- iects is that of cooperation, and should lead to closer friendship in future. That the spectacle of Chris tian nations fighting among them selves is modifying goes without say ing. and especially that there should be such barbarities practieed on non combatants: but perhaps the people of this land may thus be brought to see the distinction between real and only nominal Christianity. and the corollary that religion is matter oi the heart, not of hereditary creed and i ceremonies.

TAFT WON'T APOLOGIZE
FOR STEEL TRUST SUIT
Former President Laughs at
Attack Directed Against Him
by George w. Perkins.

Former President william Howard Taft
stopped hurrylng for a train at Bryn
AIawr. early today, long enough to laugh
heartily at the suggestion OF George w.
Perkins that he should apologize for in
stigatlng the suit against the United
States Steel Corporation, which was yes
terday decided against the Government
81 never comment on court decisions"
said the former President when he was
asked what he thought Of the decision.
Mr. Taft, by instinct and training a
jurist, almost invariably adopts this at
titude when questioned about actions of
courts. As to the apology, when he had
finished his laugh, he said:
II do not direct my apologies accord
ing TO Mr.. Perkins opinions. When
owe an apology think I am able to rem
der II when the time comes for it,"
The former President was met at the
door uf the home of T. ~ Ely. of Bryn
Mawr, where he and Mrs. Taft were
guests for the commencement exercises
at Rryn Mawr College. He was about to
hurry 10 the station for a train to Baltl-
more and he had little time to spare.
The statement of Mr.. Perkins was
shown to the former President. lie read
It hastily, chucking at every line, and
finally handed back the paper and started
to laugh. Mr. Perkins statement on the
Steel Trust suit follows:
I'D like you to ask Taft and Wicker
sham what they have to say about II
now. Roosevelt sanctioned the deal in
volving the Tennessee Coal and Iron
Company and refused to bring suit
against the Steel Corporation; but Taft
and Wickersham thought they knew all
about It and brought the Government
action. Roosevelt said there were good
trusts and bad trusts, and that the Steel
Corporation was morally right and an
efficient business organization.
TAFT and Wickersham. however, took
the view that the company had violated
the Sherman law and brought suit. They
brought a lot of other suits, too, and the
financial decentralization of the last five
years the business depression and the
lack of work have been due to their
action. 1t is up to them to explain. II
they can, and apologize The business
depression. the condition whereby thou
sands Of men We're thrown out of work
and the loss in foreign trade are charge
able directly to their business policy"
Attorney General Gregory will probably
take an appeal TO the Supreme Court
from the decision of the United States
District Court for New Jersey refusing
the petition OF the Federal Government to
have the United States Steel Corpora
ton dissolved. The decision was made
public in this city and Trenton simulta-
neously yesterday afternoon.

WOMEN DOCTORS HERE
ASK MEDICAL AID FOR
WAR BRIDES IN EUROPE
Committee Appointed by
Medical Alumnae to Re-
port on Proposal to Send
Delegation of Physicians
to Belligerent Countries.

plea for aid to be given to war
brides" and war babies by American
women doctors was made at the 10th an
nual conference Of the Alumnae Associas
tion of the woman's Medical College,
ed street and North College avenue, to-
day
A committee was appointed, with DR..
Harriet Hartley as chairman, to investi-
gate reports from Europe and to report
upon the advlsability Of sending a dele
gatIon OF members Of the association to
the front to help take care Of wounded
soldiers.
Dr. Eleanor c. Jones urged that in that
delegation there should be number Of
obstetrcians as we'll as surgeons, to care
for those about to become mothers-the
war brides who had been married In
great numbers when the troops left for
the front last summer fall and winter.
Dr. Jones also pointed out that owing
to the fact that doctors in foreign coun-
tries at war had nearly all been called
upon for service in hospital corps at the
front or at hospitals in the interior given
over to the treatment OF wounded
soldiers, there was n dearth OF medical
attention for the women and children.
Dr. NGagda Telkes de Kelenfoeld, a
young Hungarian woman, who has Just
taken her degree. told of her experiences
In Paris last August. She was impris-
oned there for n time on suspicion of be-
ing a spy for Austria Hungary though
her sympathies were all with the French.
She said the marriages of men leaving
for the front were so numerous that Of
fclals were kept busy day and night per-
forming the ceremonies. Or Telkes is
the guest of DR.. NJ T. Miller, of 31S N
SSd street.
DR.. Gertrude Walker said that some
thing should be done toward establishing
a branch of the Womans Medical Col
lege in China, as many women I'm that
country desired to study medicine ande
had no facilities for doing So
The conference also went on record
unanimously for woman suffrage today.

Billy Raffled of and Sold by Winner.

How does a goat know whose goat he
is especially when he changes hands
daily?
After being shifted about from pillar
to post. this goat, whose name Is Billy,
found himself the chief attraction at a
rattle. He knew that he was the subject
of much serious comment and was glad
to butt into temporary popularity The
rattle was held at Sd and Norris streets.
and the Billy was won by Engelbert
Brandt. He celebrated his luck by stand
ing treats to the extent of $40, Then he
took Billy home and proudly showed him
to Mrs Brandt. She told her husband
that they were not running stock farm,
so the goat couldn't butt into the house
hold.
Brandt said him for $2.25 to John sper-
buck. While Billy was thinking matters
over in the yard of Sperbuck, he was seen
by Mrs Alice Bloomer, of Tulip and
Tloga streets. He looked enough like
goat she used to have to be his twin
brother Finally she decided that he was
her goat and complained to Magistrate
Carson. The Judge thought So too.
Sperbuck and Brandt concluded that they
too were goats" Bily's hair Is a little
grayer. but he is content
