He feels better than he has in several years, but is still following the advice of his physicians, who instruct him not to be too active for a while. Since lCav- ing the hospital the colonel has seen only a few visitors. He has spent his time resting and taking occasional walks.

TREASON NOT PROVED.
Philadelphia, Tagebiatt Officers \
 Guilty by Courts Order.

Philadelphia, March 27.-On the ground that no evidence had been presented to make out a case, Judge Oliver B. Dickinson in the United States district court late yesterday directed the jury to render a verdict of not guilty in the trial of Louis Werner and Martin DarkoN. editors of the Philadelphia Tageblatt. who were charged with treason in the publication of certain articles, head lines. and alleged news dispatches in the German newspaper.
 Werner and DarkoW, along with Peter Schaefer, president; Paul Vo- gel. treasurer. and Herman Lemlle, business manager of the Philadel- phia Tageblatt Publishing associa- tion, will be tried at the June term of court on charges of violating the espionage act. The indictme ent charges them with making and con- vcying false reports to promote the success of tho enemy, Wilfully Ob- structing recruiting and enlistment and conspiracy to make false reports
 The court in directing the defend ants to be acquitted of the treason charge, said that not only intent must be shown in adherinG to the enemy, put an overt act must De proved III giving aid and comfort to the enemy There was nothing in the case beyond the fact of publication of the alleged sCditious articles, the court said.
 Judge Dickinson made his ruling after William A. Gray. counsel for the defense, had moved that the court take the case from the jury on the ground that no evidence had been produced to connect the defendants with alleged Urea sonable acts. This was strenuOusly opposed by District Attorney Kane who said the publica tions in the Tageblatt were a direct attack on the progress of the war, as it affected the United States.
 "'To turn the case over to you for consideration would be sheer weak ness on my part said Judge Dicl1in- son in his address to the jury. "The evidence has not been sufficient or of essential importance in the case to warrant it being considered by yOu,' continued the judge. "T will, therefore, direct you to return q verdict of not guilty.

DAYLIGHT SAYING HERE
Court Will Sit Earlier and Policemen Will Probably Go to Work An Hour Later.


Under the new daylight saving reg ulation the police departmc cnt will be affected. The idea, of patrol service is to cover the city as far as possible during the period of darkness.

The schedule will practical ly be the same as at present, although the clocks will not indicate ii. The schedule for the day men will also be affected. So far as they are con- cerned they will probably follow tho clock, responding for duty according tt, the present details Chiet RaWl ings and the police commission have not worked out all the details.
 Police court will follow the new plan. The city charter provides that the court will open at S:30 every morning excepting Sundays and as tho clock will be advanced tho off, cials will in reality be present at 7:30.
 The firemen will follow the new daylight order.

 during the season Of 1907-08.
 Debussy's place in the musical world has been unique one owing lto, the radically individual lines on @xfhich his musical structures Were

U. S. WAR COST
UP s2Oo,OOO,OOO
The Total Cost Now Is Only
$685. 81, 342

Seventeen months of war have
cost the United States government
SIT 1893, 6S1 ,342-$1, 900, coo, 900 a month
This rate has increased so rapidly
However, that August expenses ran
up to $1,S05, 513,222, or nearly $780,
100000 more than the highest previ-
GUS record set in July.
These figures from the Treasury
show that less than one and half
years OF modern warfare have cost
the United States more than four
times the combined Union and Con-
fedeTate OUTLAWS for three years of
the civil war, calculated at $780,
100000 for the Union and $500 ,000,-
900 for the Confederates.
The report also shows double the
rate of increase in expenditures es-
timated by the government in June,
then set at S100,000,0O0 more each
month. II this rate continues. ex-
penses for the year ending next
June 80 will be much more than the
S24 100000 estimated. and the
country may be called on, to absorb
more than the $4,000, 900 600 of lib
erty bonds now tentatively planned
The Treasury report also shows
further that of the $17,339 .0O0, 900
cost of the war to date. $1O,989 Off,
0G0 has been spent for the ordinary
war purposes, and s6,245, 1854, 900 has
gone as financial aid to the allies.
This will be repaid eventually, and
and consequently may be deducted
il calculating the net war expenses
to the United States government.
Only s5.031, 47S,000 has been gath
cred by the government from taxes,
customs and other minor sources of
revenue since the war started, and
s12 800 100000 from liberty loans
and sale of certificates Of indebted
ness, which are to be converted In
TO liberty bond This indicates that
only 20 per cent of war expenses to
date have been drawn directly from
the pockets of the people, and that
n per cent has come from popular
borrowings which will necessitate
heavy tax levies long after the war
