Chllders' case was taken up first and he
was quickly Indicted. Next to Chllders'
cell Is the one where Kennedy is Im
prisoned, but the grand Jury has not con
sidered h'tr case yet.

Heir's measure Over Attack on For

man War Party-
BERLIN, Nov. lO.-The attitude of
Crown Prince Frederick William during
yesterday's debate In the Reichstag when
he openly demonstrated his pleasure over
the criticisms of Chancellor Von Beth-
mann-Hollweg's policy in the Moroccan
affair with France, Is sharply condemned
today by not only the friends, but the
opponents of the chancellor.
The Berliner Tageblatt, the Vossosche
Zdtung, the Vorwaerts, the Cologne tia
tette and the Frankfurter Zeltung Join In
describing the Incident as a frivolous and
dangerous exhibition. The papers see no
occasion for serious concern when the
beir to the throne so demonstratively
shows his discontent with the policy of
the emperor and his responsible advisors
and express the fear that the impression
hus been given abroad that the futuro
emperor Is heading a new German war
party.
The Vosslche Zeltung wonders why
Ilerr Von Bothmann-Hollwcg did not re
sign after such a domenstratlon. The
einperor had the crown prince attend the
dinner which his majesty gave in honor
of the Imperial chancellor and his wife
Inst' nlghL
Max Strengthen Chancellor.
This stand by the press may result In a
strengthening of the position of tne chan
cellor which was badly shaken when thn
pent-up fury bom of the popular feeling
that Germany had backod down before
British menace was vented In the Reich
stag yesterday.
The chancellor sought to explain that
Germany bad attained th? object which it
had in view when the gunboat Panther
was sent to Agartlr; that the Franco
German ' treaty terminated French hos
tility; and that Germany had concluded
the prolonged negotiations with honor and
advantace.
Opposition Is General.
The response of the house waa a broad
side from the leaders of the conser
vatives, clericahi, liberals and socialists,
who attacked thu Moroccan-Congo agree
ment as humiliating and approved the
action of the secretary of state for the
colonies, Dr. Van Llndeoulst, who re
signed In protest. There had been no
doubt that the chancellor would be ex
posed to a severe gruelling by the oppo
sition, but the action of the conservatives
and clericals was a surprise and a shock.
The chancellor listened In vain for a
word of approval, while from the royal
box sounded applause for the scathing
dissent of Baron Von Ilcrtllng, the cleri
cal; Herr Von lleydebrand. the conser
vative leader, and Heir Bobel, the head
of the socialist party.

LIGHT ON GERMAN STUDENT LIFE
For the Tresrnt o Kffort Is to Ho
Mart to lntrodnr tho Method
In Grnilra Ilelovr the
Seventh.
A campaign was launched by German
teachers at the meeting of that depart
ment of the Nebraska State Teachers' as
sociation Friday afternoon to bring about
a better understanding of the German
language In Nebraska.
Teachers of German throughout the
state will be requested to cultivate the
acquaintance, of the "hoch Deutsch" In
their communities and Becure from them
information and help lit the teaching of
the fatherland tongue.
rrof. Amanda' Heppner of Lincoln,
lectured on the principal German com
munities which she has visited numerous
times, and Illustrated her tnlk with
stereoptlcon views. Student life In Ger
man waa explained, from life In the
graded schools through the college
courses. The hardships of German "frat'
life were detailed.
A little German drama, "Tha Sword of
Damocles," was presented In the German
language by four girls from the Omaha
High1 school.
Resolutions unanimously endorsing the
action of the Germnn American alliance
were adopted as follows:
Itesolatlona Aro Adopted.
Resolved, In views of the fact that the
Nebraska German American Alliance has
officially declared Its desire to co-operate
with us In our work, we recommend that
the German teachers make a speelal ef
fort to become acquainted with the best
tier mans In the communities in which
they are teaching In older to make In
telligent ro-operatlnn possible.
Resolved, That recognising the fart
that Instruction In a modern languaKK
should, as a rule, bn begun before 1 1 c
high school age when the retentlvo
faculty of pupils Is at Its best, and when
their power of Imitation Is most, active,
we favor the recommendation of the Ger
man American Alliance to Introduoe Ger
man into our sclunls as early as cir
cumstances will permit.
- Itesuived, Tnui o,l to the dlfflcuny
01 securing a suincicnt supply 01 ade
quately prepared teachers to reach the
best results, we are of the opinion that,
for the present at least, no effort should
be made to Introduce German Into the
grades below the seventh. .
Heeolvert, That' realizing that for tho
successful teaching of German In thn
grades, a ready command of the spoken
language Is well' night Indexpenslble, and
realising too, that residence In Germany
naturally the most effective way of ac
quiring this accomplishment Is In tncsrt
cases Impossible, it is suugested that the
National German-American Normal
school at Milwaukee, might and does
furnish an approximately adequate equiv
alent for residence abroad.
Unsolved, That we believe that the mod
em languages should be recognized as)
the complete equivalent to Iatln, both In
disciplinary and cultural value, and we
therefore urge upon boards, superintend
ents and principals to give it such recog
nition. Heaolved, That we further recommend
that a copy of these resolutions be fur
nished to the president of the Puperln
tnnds and linclpals association, with the
requost to have said association give
them careful and detailed consideration
at their next meeting, arid to report to
tha officers of this section the result of
their deliberation.
The officers of the German section for
the next year are: President, Frank II.
Relnach, Lincoln High srhool; secretary,
Mhs Abba Doiven, Omaha High school.
