icabs at the crisis of the struggle and
thereby turned the tide of victory in
favor of the French. he was appointed,
minister of war in the reconstructed
ca abinet
AS war minister Gen. Gallieni devoted
himself with remarkable energy to the
elimination of red tape in the admin
istration of the army. He also dealt
with a heavy hand with officers who
had secured posts through favoritism
or political influence. His first act was
to forbid civilians to write to the gen
erals in the field in regard to military
matters. and his next was to send to
the front number of able-bodied sol
diers who were occupying safe billets
in the rear. Like Gen. Joffre, he was
relentless in forcing the retirement Of
old officers whose activities or abilities
were not equal to the demands of the
war. BY revision of the exempt lists
he added 10000 men to the army.
In February of this year Gen. Gal
iieni took over the direction of the de-
partment of aviation. but shortly after
ward he was taken i'll with kidney
trouble and was compelled to resign
on March 6. Since then he has been
fighting losing battle with death.

a great deal of uneasiness and all those
who were in the capital at the time
recall the feeling of relief and revival
of confidence following the posting of
Gallieni's proclamation in which he de-
clared: Il have received the mission of
defending Paris against the invader:
l shall accomplish that mission to the
end.
At once his organizing ability and
energy were shown. In a few days the
city was surrounded by new field for
|tifications. heavy artillery was posted
at all vantage points, a complete sys-
tenn of telephone and telegraphic COM
munication was established around the
city. The part he played in the battle
of the Marne is partly known; how on
a Sunday, while Won kluck's lightning
like advance was progressing he sent
$4,000 men of the troops of the army
of Paris, in taxi motor-cars, across the
town, out to the spot where Gen. Maui
inoury was assembling his army and
brought his forces up to a strength that
ena bled him to fall upon Won kluck's
flank protection and start the great
victory of the Marine.

PARIS, May 81, S:25 a.m.-Gen. Jo-
seph S. Gallieni, former minister of war,
died at Versailles today.
The death of Gen. Gallieni, while not
unexpected, created a profound impress
sion, as he was idoIzed by the French
people. particularly the poor. who re-
garded him as the savior of Paris dur
ing the critical days of August, 1914.
His funeral will be the occa sion of a
notable military and civil demonstra-
tion.
OF all the French generals in the
European war few had a better filled
life than Gen. Gallieni. who, on the out
break of the great war in August, 1914,
was appointed military governor of the
intrenched camp of Paris. Born of a
military family at st. Beat April "a,

Protracted Detention of Ships.

Ships are detained en- route to or

other neutral countries and mails are
held and delayed for several days. and.

months. even though not routed to
ports of north Europe via British ports

the same practice was followed before
that date. calling forth the protest of
this government January 4. 1916. But
to that protest the memorandum under
acknowledgment makes no reference
and is entirely unresponsive. The gov
ernment of the United States must
again insist with emphasis that the
British and French governments do not
obtain rightful Jurisdiction Of ships by
forcing or inducing them to visit their
ports for the purpose of seizing their
mails. or thereby obtain greater bellig-
erent rights as to such ships than they
could exercise on the high seas; for

Charge of CONFIRMATION.

The principle being plain and definite.
and the present practice of the gov
ernments of Great Britain and France
being clearly, in contravention of the
principle, I will state more in detail
the position of the government of the
United States in regard to the treat
ment OF certain classes of sealed mails
under strict application of the prin-
ciple upon which our governments
seem to be in general accord. The
government of the United States is in
clined to the opinion that the class of
mail matter which includes stocks,
bonds coupons and similar securities
is to be regarded as of the same ma
ture as merchandise or other articles
OF property and subject to the same
exercise of belligerent rights Money
orders. checks. drafts. notes and other
negotiable instruments which may
pass as the equivalent of money are.
1t is considered. also to be classed as
merchandise. Correspondence, includ-
ing shipping documents. money order
lists and papers of that character. even
though relating to enemy supplies
or exports" unless carried on the
same ship as the property referred to,
are. in the opinion of this government,
to be regarded a. genuine correspond
ence," and entitled to unmolested pas

during Transmission to Holland of the
26th day of February by the Dutch
steamship Mecklenburg." The Medan
arrived safely at Rotterdam a day or
two after she left the Downs.
Numerous complaints similar to the
foregoing have been received by this
government, the details of which are
available. but I believe / have cited
sufficient facts to show the unprece-
dented and vexatious nature of the in
reference with mails persisted in by
British and French authorities. Not
only are American commercial interests
injured. but rights of property are vio-
lated and the rules of international
law and customs are palpably disre-
garded. I can only add that this con-
tinuing offense had led to such losses
to American citizens and to a possible
responsibility of the United States to
repair them that this government will
be compelled in the near future to
press claims for full reclamation upon
the attention of his majesty's govern
ment and that of the French republic.

His Active Career.

In the forty-five years of his military
career Gallieni had participated in some
of the dramatic episodes of the war of
1870, explored the upper Niger and i'm
posed a French protectorate over the
region: paciied the colony of Indo-
China. deposed Queen Ranavalo of
Madagascar and conquered and de-
veloped the colony. Between times he
had written four notable books on ex
ploration.
Two years after his graduation from
the academy at Saint-Cyr in 1868, Gal
lieni received his baptism of fire as
second lieutenant Of marine infantry at
BaZZeilleS. He was a the side of Com
mandant Lambert. who. with a handful
of men. opposed heroic resistance to
the Bavarians at the house called Les
Dernieres Cartouches-the last car
tridges-after the famous painting of
the scene by Alphonse de Neuvlle'
Named lieutenant after the war. Gal
lieni was first garrisoned at the Rem
nion. Promoted captain in 1878. he
was sent to the banks of the Niger in
mission of stablishing relations
with Abmadou. Sultan of Segou
Though fiercely attacked by the Bam-
baras, Capt. Gallieni pursued his march
and reached Segou to become captive
for eight months Every morning of
that captivity he received notice from
the sultan that he and his companions
were to be decapitated. Enmoved by
this constant menace, he continued his
negotiations with the sultan and in
stead of losing his head finished by Sc
curing from the sultan the grant to
France. to the exclusion of all other
nations. of the commerce of the upper
Niger
He returned to Senegal a lieutenant
colonel and commanderin-chief of the
region of the upper Niger. This ex-
plot also earned for him the gold

eral of division in the French army He
remained there as governor general
until 1905. when he was appointed in

No Longer to Be Tolerated.

The government of the United States,
in view of the improper methods en-
ployed by the British and French au-
thorities in interrupting mails passing
between the United States and other
neutral countries and between the
United States and the enemies of Great
Britain. can no longer tolerate the
wrongs which citizens of the United
states have suffered and continue to
suner through these methods. To sub
nit to lawless practice of this char
acter would open the door to repeated
violations of international law by the
oe!iigerent powers on the ground of
military necessity. of which the violator
would be the sole Judge. Manifestly, a
neutral nation cannot permit its rights
on the high seas to be permitted or de-
MED arbitrarily by the government of
a warning nation. The rights of neu-
trails are as sacred as the rights Of
belligerents and must be as strictly OBJ
served.
The government of the United States,
tional law and the rights Of neutrals
which the British and French govern
ments have SO often proclaimed, and
the disregard of which they have urged
so vigorously against their enemies in
the present war. expects the presl
ent practice of the British and
French authorities in the treatment of
mails from or to the United States to
cease and belligerents rights, as exer-
cised. to conform to the principle gov
erning the passage of mail matter and
to the recognized practice of nations.
Only a radical change in the present
British and French policy. restoring to
the United States it's full rights as a
neutral power. will satisfy this govern
ment."

Coyote Plays
With Katydid

Out at the Glen last Sunday, the
people who were watching the ami

puzzling over a new plaything
large green katydid. He didn't
know quite what to make of it.
The katydid was slowly crawling
over the cement floor of the cage
when the coyote discovered it, and
he Immediately came prancing over
to it. cautiously touching it with
his fore paw. This turned the
katydid over on it's back with it's
long tapering legs waving in the
air. The coyote then put his nose
down on the floor and sort of came
smuggling up to it, but the insect
tickled him on the nose and the
poor coyote jumped away, sneezing
and sputtering, and thoroughly dis
gustedL After this, he walked
around the queer object several
times before deciding to treat 1t as
real plaything, after which he
contentedly lay down and kept it
between his paws for sometime, I'M
til finally in burst of unusual
playfulness, he rolled over ON the
poor thing, and that was the end of
