i 5 St*'.'' 1 $**:?V', CO-EDS SHUT AWA FRO BO PDPILS Segregation Experiment in Chi cago Schools Stirs Students to Protests. Journal Special Service. Chicago, Feb. 7.One bv one, 700 girls with long, sad faces, filed out of the Engehvood high school yesterday afternoon. Two hundred and fifty long er and sadder masculine faces followed them. In the schoolyard thev collected in groups and 950 voices muttered com- plaimngH "I'll quit school, that's all," said a hoarse masculine voice. "It's a perfect shame we all ought to quit," murmured a soft feminine voice, approvingly. "Why, there won't be a boy left in the school the end of the year laughed a pair ot small, red lips. "Nor a girl, either," protested a pair of downy lips. It was the first day of the experiment of segregation. The idea is not popular with the pupils. Experiment in School. The experiment of segregating the gills is being tried by Principal James E. Armstrong in the hope that it will prove his contention that boys will get more out of their school work if in structed separately. The midyear en trance class has been divided into three sections for the purpose of experimenta tion. One of the sections is composed entirely of bovs, another of girls, and the third is mixed. A the end of the teTm the progress of the sections will be compared, and upon the result of this comparison, possibly, depends the con tinuation of co-education in the Ohi cago high schools. Defends Segregation. In defending segregation, Principal Armstrong declared the most funda mental argument in ite favor is that the girl at 12 years begins to develop more rapidly than the boy, and at the age of 14 is two years more mature than the boy. At that age her habits are more fixed than the boy's and she is better fitted for serious school work," he said. "She studies at home, while the lad plays football. She advances more rap idly in her studies than the boy. The result is the boy becomes discouraged and leaves school, as the work of the school must be adapted to the require ments^ the majority of the pupils, and the girls are in the majority." BONI IS "BROKE SELLS HIS WATCH Count Promptly Sees the Worth of Peace with His 9 Countess. Pans, Feb. 7.Swift retribution of tragic kind, even if it has a comio element, has overtaken Count Boni de Castellane for the wrongs suffered at his hands by 'his American wife. Mondav evening found Count Boni without his watch. It is a heavily leweled chronometer that cost an enor mous sum. Its purchase was one of the earliest of his post marital extrava gances. 3t is learned upon unimpeachable au thority that Count Boni has been obliged to sell outright this watch and articles of personal jewelry in order to provide himself with pocket money for his ordinary requirements. When the (fount and countess parted BO suddenly, the count's personal bank account happened to be exhausted, a not infrequent state of affairs. He was too angry or too proud, or perhaps too much afraid of a rebuff, to appeal to his wife for current spending* money. His determination to keep secrot the fact of his domestic calamity, so long as there remained any hope of patching up a reconciliation, prevented him from tapping the purse of his friends. Owing to a singular indifference, ig norance, or it may be be'cause of subtler njotives, not one of the Paris journals has printed a word or even a hint of the troubles of the Castellanes. Never theless, the world of commerce and finance was apprised by some occult means of the exact situation. In con sequence, Count Bom has been for the last few days besieged by his creditors. On the other hand, he is as closely pur sued by money-lenders, who are eager to speculate on his future bv advancing him almost any amount. These kind persons believe that the countess' self respect will compel her to pay up Boni's present obligations and even to provide for his future. Indeed, manv persons in society are predicting the very same thing. Without the money of the late Jay Gould, Count Boni's political career must end in shameful downfall at the forthcoming elections. EJven his sec retaries vrere paid handsome salaries. I is well known that without the aid of these secretaries, who tire alwavs tTained journalists, the count could never utter a phrase in the chamber, or even get an article in any "journal to maintain his reputation as a expert in foreign politics.

WedrxesdayEvening, PRESIDENT ASKS Pears Present Penalty Menace^ to Navy 40" as a Personnel. "Washington, "Feb. 7.-The president has made public a letter urging upon congress the modification of the law against hazing at the naval academy. Unless congress shall promptly* amend the existing law against hazing, which makes mandatory the dismissal of any midshipman found guilty of any form of hazing, the secretary of the navy may be forced to dismiss thirty-three mid shipmen from the naval academy within the next month, in addition to the eight who have already suffered this penalty and the threejavhose cases are awaiting the action ofrthe department. Secretary Bonaparte, after urging upon individual members of congress the ne cessity for immediate legislation, finally laid the whole matter before the president. It is admitted at the navy depart ment that if the present law is al lowed to Btand the service will suffer severely. Already fourteen midshipmen have been tried, of whom two have been acquitted, eight dismissed, one par doned while under sentence of dis missal, and another, Midshipman Minor Meriwether, Jr., recommended for par don. The cases of Midshipmen Jules James of Virginia and W. T. Boyd. Jr., of Illinois, are before the departme'nt for execution of sentence of dismissal. The investigating board has left with the superintendent of the academy evi dence against thirty-three other mid shipmen. President Boosevelt's letter is ad dressed to Chairmen Hale .and FOBS, spectively, of the senate and house naval committees. The president points out that, in some instances, it is mani festly uniust to subiect a midshipman convicted of hazing to dismissal from the academy, as frequently the punish ment is quite disproportionate to the offense committed. He suggests, fur ther, that it is" an error to try by courtmartial a midshipman accused of hazing. His idea is that the power to deal with such cases ought to be lodged in some administrative officer or body to deal summarily with the cases. The president was induced to take up the subject with the committees of congress by reason of the facts sub mitted to him in the John Paul Miller case. He pardoned young Miller be cause he felt that his dismissal from the academy would be a greater injus tice than the midshipman had commit ted on the man he hazed. The president expressed tlrfe hope that this session of congress will not end without the enactment of legislation remedying the difficulty as he views it. 24th Annual Reduced-Price Sale. The Great Plymouth Clothing House. CITES POLYGAM AGAINST SMOO Continued From First Page* non. The .girl came back to the school and graduated in the class of 1900, said the witness. On further examination conducted by Chairman Burrows, Professor Wolfe said that in southern Utah and New Mexico polygamy is talked with some freedom. He quoted Apostle John Henry Smith as having said concerning the manifesto: "It is a trick to beat the devil at his own game He quoted John Wilson of Logan, a prominent Mormon, as saying: "The manifesto enables the church to exclude men who ought not to have more than one wife and gives to worthy men an oppor tunity to take plural wives." Both of these statements, the witness said, were made in his church. "To the best of my knowledge," said Professor Wolfe, "poylgamous co habitation has increased very materi ally since Utah was admitted as a state.'' Polygamy "Not a Crime.'* On cross-examination Mr. Worthing ton produced the original charges brought against Cluff by Professor Wolfe and other members of the Mexi can expedition. The witness was asked why he had refrained from making the charge that Cluff was living in Mexico with Florence Reynolds. "For several reasons," replied Wolfe. "The chief one was that polyg amy was not a crime in the eyes of the church." When asked concerning some of the proceedings of that trial, particularly concerning intimate details, he said there was a gentleman in the room who was better qualified to answer. "Who?" asked Mr. Worthington. "The senator from Utah," he re plied. After stating that Mr. Smoot had not been a member of the subcommittee making the investigation, Mr. Worth ington asked the witness concerning his habits and whether he had been discharged from his position as a teacher because of drunkenness. He said his resignation had beqn "invol untarily voluntary.'' and explained that he had drunk for twenty years and there had been no change in his habits all those vears, but that ifter refusing to pav tithes he had been asked to re sign on account of having been intoxi cated on a Sundav early in Januarv of this year. He said he knew the conse quence of refusing to pay tithes. Sen ator Hopkins asked if the charge had been true that he was drunk on the Sunday referred to. "No sir if the charge had been made the next day it might have .been true," the witness replied. Seed of Treason Sown. Professor Wolfe said he believed that the "seed 'of treason" was town in the oath of vengeance. In answer to questions by Chairman Burrows he de scribed the interior of the temple. Among the pictures was one of Senator Smoot.

Chase, a well known portrait painter, has been commissioned by President Roosevelt to paint his por trait for presentation to King Edward fft Great Britain. Mr. Chase, when vis ited at the art club, would not deny that-Jie is to paint a picture*of Pret denf Roosevelt for that purpose, but said he had not yet received W offi- ^^^^1^0^^ ITMU. tTablets. Cial C0mnus_I0n, ftk* E1. included speeches by Bourke ochran (N. Y.), Mr. Mann (111.), Mr. Williams (Miss.) and Mr. Hepburn (Iowa). Mr. Cockran announced his position in favor of the bill. While he did not consider it a panacea for all evils, it was a most wholesome manifestation of a unanimous public determination to deal with the rate evil. It was the only means by which public owner ship could be stopped and checked the most plausible argument of the social ist. Mr. Cockran had been speaking but a feffv minutes when he had a full audi ence on the floor and the galleries were also occupied to their capacity. Favoritism Corrupt. Mr. Cockran gave Bimple analyses of favoritism and discrimination to show its inherent injuries. Favoritism was always granted corruptly. "Sir," he continued, "the history of railroad management in this coun try is the history of favoritism, of corruption and fraud." In spite of this he would not say the railroads had not rendered enormous service, but they had not been as effi cient as thej^hould be. His next assertion was that railway influences dominated both political Earties.e Illustrating this, he showed ow th representatives of wealth ig nored the courts and dominated state administrations. The very court which had dropped the proceedings against H. H. Rogers had the next day issued a most vigorous information against striking pi inters. The Hill Merger Case. In this connection he reviewed the Northern Securities decision, which, he said, declared criminals and conspira tors those responsible for that combina tion. Harriman and Morgan, he said, quarreled over the control of several railways in the. northwest which threat ened to interfere with their plunder. The president directed an action against them. The court declared a conspiracy. W hat was the result?" he asked. "It was to reduce the control of these fhey noperties from two to one. When came to distribute the stocks Har riman had been eliminated, Morgan was supreme. A more perfect conspiracy was perfected thru the decision of the court itself, and the stock, which was selling at $100 to $102 when the de cision was pending, sold for $160 after it was announced, thus enriching the conspirators, who walked out of court iust $240,000,000 richer for having been convicted." Morgan and Debs. The fact that no criminal proceed ings had been begun was dwelt on at some length, and the jail sentence of Debs and the conviction of two sena tors for "mere indiscretions" con trasted. Compliments were paid to Bockefel ler, "at once the richest and most de spised of our whole population." The most effective feature of the bill, he maintained, was the popular disposition back of it, the next was its publicity feature. Universal applause greeted Mr. Cock ran's conclusion, and after the informal congratulatory reception to him had concluded Mr. Mann (111.) took the floor. Mr. Mann's Speech. Tersely stating the need of the ship per for railroads, the need of railroads for the shipper and the difficulty of their coming to an equitable under standing, Mr. Mann pointed out the necessity-for an intervening agency. "That is the proposition in the pending measure," continued Mr. Mann. "It is proposed to give to the interstate commerce commission, to a limited degree, the rate-making power. This will not prevent the carrier in the face of competition from lowering its rates, in order to save its share of the business. "The Hepburn-Dolliver bill now pending before us is immeasurably su perior to the old Nelson-Corliss bill, the Cooper-Quarles bill or the Esch Townsend bill of the last session. Those bills proposed to give to the commission the general power to fix absolute railroad rates which could not be changed, except upon filing a new petition and having a new hearing before the commission. The bill per mits the commission at any time, of its own motion to change its order it per mits a rehearing^ of the case at anv time, it provides that the rate fixed by the commission shall not be abso lute rate, but only the maximum rate and it provides that this rate shall be compulsory only for the term of three years. This will give the power to cor rect the evils which are complained of, but will not give the power to continue the property invested in railroads or to paravyize the business interests of the countrv and prevent the location and establishment of new industries along the lines of the railroads. As to Differentials. "It will not give the commission the power to determine differentials, the power to say whether grain from the northwest shall be shipped for ex port by way of the gulf ports or the north Atlantic ports, the power to de stroy the law of competition, the power to rum one citv or one locality for the benefit of another citv or an other locality. The former bills were intended to" destroy railroad competi tion. The pending bill invites compe tition and it preserves all the competi tive forces which tend to increase the economy of transportation and reduce the cost thereof. The railroad officials fear that it is dangerous. Let us admit it. There is some danger. No one can tell how dan gerous it might become if fully exer cised. But no new legislation is ever ty is that the pending measure is con- the shipping community and does not permit the Confiscation of the railroad properties. The present bill is a com promise measure. It probably does not 'meet the full views of* anyone^. ^t 8om Bad Points. *ri "Some things about the bill are ob jectionable. The provision fixing a pen-* alty of $5,000 for each distinct viola tion of an order of the commission might penalize a road t?6^the extent of millions of: dollars a day. The propo sition is so unconscionable that the court must hold it unconstitutional.

Much of this statement was brought out by questions from Mr. Mbrgan. Mr. Daniel asked Mr. Patterson if he knew of any other senator who would vote for the treaty, but Mr. Patterson did not reply. Instead he referred to the charge made that he had deserted his party and that was in the habit making party changes. He admitted i democratic party nhe lef ha in 1892 rather than support Mr. Cleve land. this connection, he referred to* Mr. ^"roan's course in his own state and Mr. Tillman interrupted with the re mark that "he had eaten as much crow in submitting to party dictation as any man living." "Did you like it?" asked Mr. Spooner, and Mr. Tillman replied, "No, but I took it." The digression caused a general laugh, which continued as Mr.t Patter Son remarkeeds that he, too, had eaten cro tough than tha taken by Mr. Tillman. Had Bolted Nominations. Mr. Patterson said he had bolted some party nominations at home and expected to do so again. Discussing the democratic caucus binding resolutions, he asked: "Is it persuasive or coercive?" and answer ing his own inquiry, he declared it to be cruel. "It may Tbe refined," he went on, "but it is cruel. It strips senators of every element of independ ence and is liable to forC% them to dis grace their high offices or into obliv- ion." He declared that such a course brought the senate^own to the level of an ordinary political meeting. He had always believed that in public of fice men were more important that platforms. He had thought that the democratic party might learn valuable lessons from the republican party in dealing with the membership of the party. He especially commended that party for not having "whole states bound and gagged by the unit rule in national conventions.'" "The democratic party has been out of power for many yearns. Will my democratic friends not concede that its arbitrary methods are responsible for that fact?" Mr. Patterson declared that the doc trine that even states have a right to direct the votes of their senators has been abandoned. He indorsed the change of view, holding that the free dom of senators could not otherwise be maintained. S, True to Convictions. He declared that the caucus rule did not provide for the conscience of the senate, and said that a senator should be true to his own convictions, consti tuting himself a monitor of which he should stand in awe. He appealed for relief from the "cruelty and injustice and indefensible character of the cau cus action." He said that, the caucus was equiva lent to declaring that senators were dishonestrand that senators who could not be Secured thru reason should be reached thru fear. He said thatra sen ator who stands in fear of being weak ened at the' pollsJiecauae Of "haying vio lated ^cri 4et-ra,iffi fit/his moral forces weakened.,,, b Deploring the use, ofc such terms as "White House demands" and "insur gent republicans" when independence was shown he repeated that it was the duty of every senator, regardless of party, to vote his solemn convictions. As to the qualification that a senator should be 30 years old, Mr. Patterson quoted Judge Story that 30 years was not too long for due maturity, and said that "tried integrity"-was one qualification. Taunts and Summonses. He spoke of "taunts" having passed back and forth across the chamber, as to coercive measures, and also spoke of summonses of senators to the White House. I don't hesitate to say that the senator or member who surrenders his own convictions in the hope of patron age and that the president who prom ises it are, to say the least, to be con demned," he said, adding that such a course was nothing less than bribery. Such a course was immoral and inde fensive^ and was the same as securing votes for venial considerations. Quoting the different sections of the preamble to his resolution, Mr. Pat terson commented upon them. Refer ring to one of these sections, he said, there is neither constitutional nor sta tutory authority for twenty-five or thirty senators o' attempt to coerce the vote of one of their colleagues. Such a course is calculated to deprive a state of its proper representation in the senate, he declared, and asked "who is willing to be impaled by the public contempt for submitting to such dictation?" He declared that in thus voting a senator becomes a representa tive of other states rather than his own. Has No Regrets. He concluded substantially as fol lows: I have no regrets for the course --I have pursued and shall con tinue to pursue it. is true I may not be admitted to the councils of my party in the esnate, but realizing that I am excluded because I am striving to perform my duty as I have sworn to execute it, 1 will bear the exclusion in perfect equanimity, simply saying to my democratic friends that I expect to meet them in the next democratic convention, where I hope we will nom inate a candidate for president who will be equally as (brave as Mr. Roose velt in fighting the fight of the peo ple.

Berlin, Feb. 7.While government circles maintain an outwardly hopeful attitude regarding the conference at Algeciras, the indications are that much concern is felt about the outcome. Even a failure to reach an agreement on the police question is regarded as probable, "bis inference is drawn from the fact that, the inspired press have begun dis cussing the probable results of a failure to reach an agreement. These papers assert that a failure would not involve the danger of war, so far as Germany is concerned, and thev argue that France would never go to war on ac count of Morocco. These papers inter pret the warning of the Havas agency against "excessive optimism" as prov ing the pacific intentions of the Paris government. The result of a failure to reach an agreement would be, according to Ger man inspired utterances, that Moroccan affairs would continue to be regulated under the arrangement of 18fa0. But moie critical observers point out that the controversy of 1905 originated, de spite that arrangement, and that the conference's being due to German in itiative, its failure would involve se rious damage to German prestige. The Hamburger Nachrichten says a failure of the conference would inten sify the friction between Germany and France and compromise Germany's po sition. Kaiser Calls Officers Home.

"The state treasury," said he, "has a surplus on hand sufficient to justify a radical change in its tax laws.
