MORE BULL
BY HERTLINC

COPENHAGEN, March 10
Chancellor Hertling, addressing
the German reichstag yesterday,
declared he did not wish to dis
cuss the enemy's opinions regard
ing the Russian peace treaty, &C
cording to dispatches received
here today.
The chancellor said :ae treaty
did not contain terms disgraceful
to Russia and that II certain
provinces were breaking away
from Russia It was in accordance
with their own wishes.
"If the reichstag adopts the
treaty of peace, the whole east
front will be restored" Hertling
said. But among the entente
allies there is not yet the least
inclination to finish the terrible
war. The responsibility for con-
tinuation of bloodshed will be on
the heads of those wishing to
continue it."

WASHINGTON, d. c., March
19.-Miss Anne Martin, the first
woman candidate for the United
States senate, has large Irish gray
eyes, a clear complexion, a girlish
figure and gentle voice.
In dress and manner she is dis
tinctly feminine.
Her home is in Reno, New.
She was once tennis champion
of Nevada.
She is rather long on education
as this summary will prove:
After her graduation at Leland
Stanford she took a course in art
I'm New York; then went to Cam
bridge, England, the University of
London and Leipzig; thence back
to Nevada to take the chair of
history in the state university.
She's AZ, Admits 1t.
From there she emerged into

Girls! Girls! Judge Has a
Box Seat at Classy Show

Judge L'nck's court room might
have been a scene from musical
comedy Tuesday morning when
fair Pantages theater stars appear
ed en- masse to defend the honor
of one of their companions bull
dog.
The girls filled the small court
room to the overflowing-girls of
styles and compilations. Rich fur
coats, simple blue suits, every style
had its representative, when the
case of John e. Burke against
Charles Anderson came on for
trial.
Burke, complaining witness,
charges that Anderson, who has In
his acts IL chorus girls, was TAX
ing all the best dressing rooms for
the girls. .
Burke alleges he demonstrated
with Anderson about this and that
Anderson knocked him down, and
that one of the chorus girls sicked
her bulldog on him.
Burke showed a scratch upon his
little finger which he alleges was
caused by the vicious brute.
The Times reporter came into
the court room to find 1t so crowd
ed that there was no seats remain
ing, until the Judge took pity on
her and shared his bench.
Everything was set for a SEN
|sation--when the plaintiff and
defendant walked into the room
arm IN arm in friendly fashion
and asked that the suit be dismiss
ed as they had settled 1t.

workhouse and -pardoned by the
president.
For two years she has been in
charge of the lobby work of this
suffrage organization.
Miss Martin Is an announced
candidate for the seat left vacant
by the death of the late Senator
Newlands of Nevada.
Her first claim to the office
rests on the fact that she won the
state for suffrage.
Her announced reason, how
ever, is that 1.-The voting women
of the country should have a voice
and vote in legislative matters"
1t was as a suffrage campaign
er that Miss Martin first achieved
fame. She went to the people of
Nevada by train, by auto, on
horseback and on foot.
When mining camp was so
high up among the hills that there
remained only footpath to it, she
took the path.
She spoke in halls, on street cor
ners. And she got to the people
and won, against the united on
position Of both parties.
She is for government owner
ship of railroads or further
reclamation of desert lands by gov
eminent works, for the abolition
of the long and short haul railroad
rate, and for more intelligent
solution of the problem of season

NEW YORK, March 19.-In its
Investigation Of an alleged wide
spread German spy plot in Ameri-
ca, the department of justice to-
day questioned Edmond Rousellot
di Castellot, who is now in jail for
impersonating a French army Of
ficer.
Nine. Storch, beautiful Turk"
was held on Ellis Island while
federal authorities continued their
probe into her association with en-
envy agents.
Deportation warrants for the
two men and two women were is
sued.
1t is understood they are sus-
pected of completely in spy plots
in Paris, in which Bolo Pasha, now
under sentence Of death, was in
Ivolved.
Mms. Storch is the most pic
turesque of the quartet of two
women and two men seized here
yesterday. She was known here
as a woman of wealth. 1t is prob
able she and others will be sent
back to France to face the music
there.
| Posed on Broadway
| Rousellot di Castellot cut a
lswath on Broadway recently, pos
ling as a distinguished Frenchman.
For while 1t was rumored he
was King Alfonso of Spain in dis
guise. H
After his interrogation by AS
sistant U. S. District Attorney
Knox h was taken back to the
tombs.
Federal officials allege that
Castellot forged passes to guarded
wharves in New York and also
succeeded in getting aboard a
British cruiser, in port here.
Count Robert de Claimont and
Nine. Elizabeth Nix, others ar
rested yesterday, are on Ellis ISL
and with Nine. Storch, Baron
Henri de Deville, fourth of the al
legged conspirators, is sick in bed.
Federal guards are at his bedside.
Ferreted Secrets.
Credit for apprehension of the
band was given to William Hal
stead Canderpool, who is a volun-
teer in secret service work He
met Nine Storch at the Biltmore
hotel here and thru this acquaint
ance he met Baron Deville and
others in the alleged plot. Van
derpool acquired much informa-
ton, some of which was cabled
to allied capitals, where it is being
used in other spy Investigations.
Thru Vanderpool's efforts, it is
understood the U. S. secret
agents learned that Nine. Nix who
knew Count Won Bernstorff, re-
ceived big sums of money which
was spent in mysterious ways.
Nine. Storch, the Turk, is be-
lieved by investigators to have fer
retted out many secrets by ner
beauty and wit. Each of the four,
Nine. Storch, Nine. Nix, Count de
IClaimont and Baron Deville, oc-
cupied handsome suites in different
parts of uptown New York.
Nine. Storch and de Deville
were about to depart for Cuba
when they were seized.
