An irOn-bOund cabaret law to pro-
hibit any kind of entertainment ex-
cept music or singing, to be present.
ed by performers dressed in street
clothes who are not to mingle with

son. 1.-The only object Mr.. Gillespie
has in his refusal is the hope Of gam
ing time"
Later Senator Thompson said that
he would probably have Mr. Gillespie
hailed before the bar of the Legis-
lature and ask that he be cited in con-
tempt.
During the wrangle over the Gil
lespie papers Mr.. Gillespie said that
they only showed transfers of S5l4,0OO
TO Pittsburgh, and that $305. 900 of this
was returned. Senator Thompson shut
him off, saying he didn't want any ex-
plantations.
The Thompson committee will not sit
again until Wednesday. The sub-com-
mittee, in charge Of Senator Robert
Lawson, will sit In open sessions, how
ever, and go over the books and papers
OF the Gillespie company that il has in
its possession. The reason for the ad-
journment is that Senator Thompson
wants to be in Albany Monday TO fight
for an extension OF life for the com
mittee. On Tuesday he will appear be
fore the Senate Finance Committee.
which meets in executive session that
day TO consider the appointments OF
Travis Whitney and Charles Hervey as
Public Service Commissioners for the
lst District.
Senator Lawson said last night that
the subcommittee had held executive
sessions all week. Ii had before il
Travis Whitney and other employees of
the Public Service Commission. En-
ployes OF the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company were also called.
Senator Lawson said that the inves-
tigatlon showed that Mr. Whitney had
shown favoritism to the Brooklyn Rapid
transit Company In proceeding
brought by Frederick c. Williams, a
Brooklyn taxpayer, to restrain the com
mission from approving plans for the
Fulton Street 81" from Cumberland
Street 10 Nostrand Avenue.
The Subcommittee, he also explained.

Commission had not acted on the bal

the lnterborough asked be charged as

s5s9, 900 was allowed 10 be so charged.
which meant the lnterborough charged

dual subway system. This will be paid
by the city. Among the items IN the
s5S9.OO0 were the Shonts bonds OF
$4,000 and the Rogers and Gaynor
bonuses. II had been supposed that the
balance OF nearly $1,000 had been
cisapproved by the commission. The
amount asked was spent in admins

MRS. e. VANDERBILT

Refuses Big Offer of Apartment
House Trio.

Three wealthy men failed in an effort
to purchase the mansion occupied by
Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt. 1t is on the
block front in Fifth Avenue, between
Fifty-seventh and Fifty eighth streets,
and was wanted as the site OF an apart
ment house.
According to reports in real estate
circles yesterday, the sum they offered
for the property was so large they
were sure that it would be accepted.
They engaged an architect to prepare
rough plans for twelye-story build
ing for the site. They then Learned
from their brokers that Mrs. Wander
bilt would not sell if the offer had
been twice as large She has said that
she intends TO occupy the house as
long as she lives.
The men were desirous Of erecting a
house OF forty rooms and a dozen or
so baths to the floor

DEFENDS NEW SNOW LAW
Curran Denies Possibility OF Arrest
Before Morning.

Alderman Henry Curran took excep-
tion yesterday TO the statements OF
Frank l.. Dowling, acting President OF
the Board. before the Board Of Est-
mate Friday, when the latter criticised
the proposed ordinance providing a
81 fine for householdcrs who do not
clear their sidewalks "within four
hours after snowstorm."
Bowling said that under the proposed
ordinance every one might be arrested
by morning if snowstorm stopped at
IL o'clock at night.
"The acting president evidently was
unfamiliar not only with the provisions
Of the proposed ordinance said Cur
rnn. but with the provisions OF the
snow and ice ordinances which have
been In force for many years"
Alderman Curran quoted the old
"four hour" ordinance. which said that
the time between 9 y. m. and a. m.
should not be included in the four hour
period.

HUNGRY STUDENTS
RAID SWEETS SHOPS
Feeds" Off the Campus Blast
Professors Dreams of a More
Intellectual College.
IBy telegraph 10 The Tribune J

Poughkeepsie, n. Y, Feb. 26.-When
Vsssar professors got together recent
ly to discuss the reason for pretty
dropping heads and eyelids that just
wouldn't stay open during afternoon
classes, they reached the conclusion
that the girls ate too much for lunch
con. Since something had TO be done
to improve scholarship, they decide /
70 attack the evil at it's base-the field
Of supplies.
The edict went forth. Thereafter
il was announced week ago, luncheon
was TO consist Of one course, with
soup sometimes thrown in for good
measure. Potatoes went first, in the
belief that the absence of spuds woul
increase the list of honor students.
Twas not to be. So all side dishes
vanished next, followed by sweets.
That was the last straw.
Corned beef and cabbage was the
first days menu. When the second
days luncheon loomed the girls faced
salmon salad. The third day offered
slices of meat, olives and cubes o.
cheese. And then-aye! and then
the following day the tables were dec
GRATED with large, lone dish Of
stewed oysters.
The girls decided they had had
enough of brain food. The one and
only topic of conversation at the lunch
con table as long as the luncheon
lasted was the luncheon. Pickles be
gan disappearing from pearby shops
and the proprietors Suddenly saw
visions of much bioated bank accounts
The girls went TO the housekeepers
and protested.
We're starving" they said. We've
got TO have more to eat or---or
The ultimatum was carried out last
week When through with the meals
provided by the college the girls

SEES PACIFIST GOAL
Declares Social Values" Can
Come Only After Defence.
[By relesrarh to The Tribune !

Chicago, Feb 26.-"No nation can re-
tain any social values worth having
unless it develops the warlike strength
necessary for its own defence"
This is the premise upon which ex-
President Theodore Roosevelt dis
cusses war in its sociological aspects
in an article in publication Of the
American Sociological Society. just
published by the University OF Chicago
Press.
The ex-President discusses the ques-
tion under the particular title of $50
cial Values and National Existence"
The former President directs barb
at "the perfectly we'll meaning people,
utterly incapable Of learning any les
son taught by history" who would turn
the United States into an occidental
China. This, he asserts, is being done
despite the fact that every intelligent
Chinaman to-day is seeking to abolish
the old kind Of unprepared China.
"A war can be defined as violence
between nations, as the use of force
between nations" declares Colonel
Roosevelt. at is analogous to vio-
lence between individuals within a ma
tion-using violence in a large sense
as equivalent to the use of force.
When this fact is grasped, the average
citizen will be spared the mental con-
fusion he now suffers because he thinks
of war as in itself wrong. OF course,
whether war is right or wrong depends
upon the purpose for which and the
spirit in which it is wsged.
"lf the college presidents, poll
ticians, automobile manufacturers and
the like who, during the last year or
two, have preached pacifsm in its
most ignobl. and degrading form are
willing 70 think out the subject and
are both sincere and fairly intelligent
they must necessarily condemn q po-
lice force or the posse comitatus just
as much as they condemn armies, and
they must regard the activities Of the
sheriff and the constable as being es-
sentially militaristic, and therefore to
be abolished"
