A Little Group of Serious
Thinkers.

Mr.. HENRY MCBRIDE:
Dear Sir-Permit me to proffer a
very mild protest to your statement
in to-day's Sun regarding the scarcity
of nudes among painters in the city.
No doubt you are laboring under
nehulous inescience as TO the fact that
many bachelors still keep alive the
female form allurinG on their count
less Canvases. To curtail undue
length to this communication allow
me to illumine your soul by making
you aware that | for one can boast OF
possessing n collection Of over 1000
paintings that portray pleasing fe-
males, celebrate charming girls in
groups of four TO ten, and represent
diverse women in subjects classical.

The experiment OF the Society of
Independent Artists in giving their
lively show this year at the Waldorf
Astoria is meeting with pronounced
success. The public are going in big
ger numbers than ever TO see the
nearly 700 works of art on view this
year. Whether the fact that the In
dependents have gone to tho Waldorf
is accepted as proof of their serious
ness and responsibility or not, the
public is taking this years pictures,
&c. with much gravcr mien than on
the two previous years. The fact that
many pictures have already been sold
will more than solace their owners for
the fact that tho society sticks to its
principle Of mo prizes" and, of course,
mo jury"
One source of this years success is
undoubtedly the fact that the show
has been to some extent planned The

EX-KAISER MAY MOVE
PRESENT HOST DOESN'T WANT
HIM ANY MORE.
Treated With Difference, but Is Too
Nervous to Be Popular With
His Associates.

Amsterdam, Dec 31.--It is an open
secret, according TO the Wageningen
correspondent of the Nieus Van den
Dag, that Count Won Bentinck, at
whose castle in Amerongen former
Emperor William is staying, would
not be displeased with the departure
of his guest
Even in the house of his host the
eX-emperOr has shown him all the hon
ors he formerly claimed. This, the
correspondent reports, is especially
evident at meals, which are taken with
the counts family and to which the
aristocrats of the neighborhood are
sometimes invited. The former ruler
is always regarded and treated as the
chief figure on these occasions.
The former emperor is suffering
from nervousness, it is also pointed
out, which does not make intercourse
with him easy. If he could get a
house of his own, the correspondent
thinks, many persons would consider
it happy solution.
The correspondent adds that it is
believed in the neighborhood that the
Castle de Monte may eventually be
rented to Herr Hohenzollern.

Coblenz, Dec. 31.-Daily telephone

Gently. The long distance telephone
conversations have been i'll connection
with the work of the interallied armis-
tice commission and also in arranging
details concerning the war material
which the Germans are assembling in
the region of COblenZ.
All wires between Berlin and the
American area of occupation except
two were severed Saturday, in accord

the arms surrendered are 100000
rifles, 10000 of which were captured
from the allies.
The heavy artillery includes two
six-inch guns manufactured in 1873,
but used on the front during the lat
ter days of the war. Both guns were
in first-clasS condition.
More than 100000 yards of gray

In a warehouse in Coblenz-Lutzel,
across the Moselle river from this
city, Americans have found $4,000
pounds of shoe leather and machinery
for repairing shoes. A plan is under
consideration to use this repair fac.
tory for remaking shoes for the army
of occupation. The machinery can be
operated by the Americans and the
leather is of good quality, showing
that the Germans had everything nee
eSSary in the line of footwear.

Department Of Justice Seeks Legisla-
ton to Dispose Of the Many kai-
serites Employed as Spies in
the United States. d.

Washington, Dec. 31.-DepOrtation
of most of the 5000 or 1900, enemy
aliens now interned in the United
States will be recommended to con-
gress shortly by the department of JUS
tice.
Special legislation will be required
for the deportation and it was learned
the department will ask also for au-
thOrity to prevent the re-entry Of these
men into this country later.
Some of the interned aliens are. not
considered dangerous now and no eff
fort will be made to deport them. Care
full investigation of the records, how
ever. convince department of justice
officials that the larger proportion of
those interned should not be left in
this country to foment future trouble.
Half Are German Agents.
The department never has an
nounced how many enemy aliens are
held in internment camps in this coun-
try, but the number is understood to
be between 5000 and 1000. Most o.
them are Germans and few are wom-
en-. About half are understood to be
men who served actively at one time
as German agents in the United States,
receiving and executing orders direct
from the German government or its
representatives. These include trained
opagandists, men involved in bomb
plots early in the war and during Amer
ica's neutrality, some who plotted d.
rectly against American shipping and
the transportation of troops over
seas.
Have Lived Here for Years.
There are also many men who were
suspected of gathering information
for transmission to Germany after the
United States entered the war, but
against whom specific proof could not
be obtained.
Many of the prisoners are men with
families in the United States and who
have lived here for number of years.
The internment camps contine not a
few men of large wealth. Precisely
which of these might be considered too
dangerous to remain definitely in the
United States will not be determined
until the department is ready to take
action under the proposed legislation.
Department of justice representa-
tives expect to confer soon with the
department of labor to develop q plan
for administration of the deportations
to be recommended to congress. A bill
providing for deportation of interned
aliens already is pending in the house.
