THEODORE SHONTS REFUSES HIS
DAUGHTER ALLOWANCE.
WILL NOT REPAIR DUKE ESTATES
But He Has Consented to Give a Sub'
tantlal Dowry Wedding , After All ,
May Not Take Place In May , as Had
Been Announced.
Washington , April 18. The dopar- .
turo of Theodora P. Shouts , former.
chairman of the Pnnnnia canal coinj
mission , with his two daughters for
Now York , where ho Is now head of I
the Metropolitan traction Interests , has
again revived tnllc concerning the en-
'
r pngement of Miss Shouts to the Due
Do Clmnlnes.
Engagement Is Off.
If there ever was an engagement It'
Is now off , as Washington society has
the story , and the reason for this failure -
uro of another international alliance
is said to be the refusal of Mr. Shouts
to grant tne ducal demand for a settle
ment.
It is accepted here as the correct
eralon of the departure of the duke
; 'ithout a bride that Mr. Shonts stood
firmly for the American Idea of ihar-
riago settlements. Ho Is reported to
have told De Chaulnes that he would' '
give his daughter a stylish wedding ,
provide her with a trousseau fit for a
princess and a substantial wedding al
lowance that would keep her in pin I
money for a long time , but to enter'
Into any agreement to settle an income'8 ' ,
on her for life before marriage , this
he would not do.
Duke is Short on Cash.
Personally the head of the Shonts
household wants to see his daughter
happily married , and , if ho hud any
objections to the French nobleman he
was willing to put them aside if Miss
Shonts was patlsfled with the duke.
So , according to some of he wise ones ,
the match will never come off , as the
duke Is reported to "need the money , " , |
for , while ho Is long on lineage and
incumbered estates , ho Is short on
* cash.
May be a Love Match.
To nil appearances the two young
people are really In love. "But what
can a duke and duchess do without
sufficient ments to keep up their end
of the social game ? " asks Washington
society. Still , some believe the young
people may yet decide to marry with
out the settlement and take their
chances on papa's determination not
rehabilitate the De Chaulnes
Tates.

Now York , April 18. While squads
of detectives are scouring the for
eign quarters and arresting all the
armed men they find , the Judicial offi
cers are showing evidence of their In
tention to co-operate with the police
In hi caking up the practice of carryIng -
Ing deadly weapons.
Judge Rosalsky gave a sentence of
three years in Sing Sing to John Keen ,
1 negro , who had been arrested for
disorderly conduct. A pair of brass
knuckles were found on him In all ,
250 men have been locked up.
Maglstrales all o\er the city are

POINTS OF DIFFERENCE.
Public and Private Methods Contrast *
ed Organisation vs. Acnregation.
One contiolllng economic icasou for
opposing public ownership N tint C"-
cry Individual in society prospers Just
lu 1 proportion ns Inilii try gets the best
thcie t is in human capability. On fie
other hand , KONOiii'iient control and

Now the g \ 01 nmen't may compete
with private enterprise in getting ca
pable men , but it lias not thus far
shown , anything of the capacity of a
private eiiterpil.-e to assign the right
man always to the right place. The
agency which In private enterprise
succeeds so generally In eventually
landing In the tight place the right
man la not simply good Intention or
mere Intelligence , but the Intelligence
and Intention which constantly study
the enterprise In hand , which make it
the one affair In life , constantly
thought of mid planned for an Intelli
gence ninl Intention , too , which arc
themselves IH nearly as possible per
manent. That kind of seeking out and
watchfulness few government depart
ments possess. The men In charge of
government departments may bo Intel
ligent and well Inteutloncd , but they
are lu today and out tomorrow. The
thing under them Is not their child.
They never , as a mutter of fact , got
their hands and tholr minds fully Into

A UNITED STATES GEOLOGIST
ROUGHLY FORECASTS.
SAYS THEY TRAVEL IN CYCLES
Prof. Haynes , Who Predicted the
Earthquake Which Han Laid Low
Cities in Mexico , Says Next Will
Appear In Colombian U. S.
Washington , April 18. "PIcnso do
not put mo In the class of piophotH , "
said Prof Ohm lea Wlllnrd llnyes of
the United Status geological suivoj ,
who Rome tlmo ago predicted the
earthquake that occui'red In Mexico
yesterday the other day. "But 1 will
not ho sui prised If the next eaithqnako
Hhould occur In the United States of
Colombia. "
"A Wild Prediction. "
"It was a pure guess , " ho said. "It
Is Impossible to pi edict with any ac
curacy : the location and time of the
occurrence of an eatthqiiake , but our
knowledge of the geological structure
of the earth enables us to determine
ofwl
what : regions aic likely to be shaken.
The course of these dlstiu bailees maybe
beef expected to follow a genoial line
of adjustment of the eaith crust along
the ' west slope of the two American
j
continents , the line being somewhat
broken In Cential America.
They Go In Cycles.
"After the San Francisco and Valparaiso
raise quakes I merely made a guess
that the next one would occur in Mexico
Ice as it is in the same belt with the
other two cities that were destroyed.
I believe ' the tlmo when earthquakes
can bo predicted with reasonable cer-
talnty Is In the far future. There are
liable to be more disturbances. They
go In cycles. This Is the reason I be-
lleve that the next one will bo In Co
lombia. "
KUcMUnT PAiiTL bjCETED ;
Twelve Men In the Box , Subject to
Fifteen Peremptory Challenges.
Sun Francisco , April IS. After pro
limlnarles , examinations , adjourn'
meats and other delays occupying in
all twenty-two days , a trial Jury panel ,
subject to the exercise of filteeii peremptory -
emptory challenges ten by the de-
and five by the prosecution
was completed in the Ruef case.
When the trial vvas icbiimed , thirty-
five talesmen out of a drawn venire
ot fifty Issued to complete the panel ,
answered their names In court.
Twenty-six of the thirty-five escaped
serving by satisfying Judge Dunne
that their excuses were valid. Out
of the nine remaining , four tentative
jurors were chosen in the course of
the day , thus filling the box.
The time has now arrived for the
peremptory challenges of the jurors
and much speculation is Indulged In as
tcsi whether the entire panel will be
set aside in the exercise of this prlv
liege or whether as many as half of
the twelve will survive the final scru
tiny of Ruef's prosecutors and do
fenders. It is thought likely that at
least another week will be required for
the permanent filling of the panel
after the peremptory challenges have
been exercised.
MORE POISON FOR METTES
Members of Family Who Survive
Attack Are in Critical Condition.
Chicago , April IS. Three surviving

Frank Metto died last Saturday ;
his wife died April 6. Three other
members of the family were also made
ill i ! and are now In a hospital. Of
those : remaining in the house , three
sons were poisoned by eating oatmea
brought Into the house since the fath
er died. It Is believed an attempt
has been made to poison the family , '
but no clue has yet been found. It ;
is doubtful whether any of those poi i-
soned will recover.

"Second Justice Is hlghur than

(
Answer The Mist pilnclplo of nat
ural justice tot bids inun to bo judges
when ' they aio purtlob to thu Issue.
Al law rests upon this throughout
the civilized woiltl Woiu a Judge
known ' to alt upon n case In which ho
was secretly Interested , he > would bo
dishonored ) und expelled from his high
ofllce. If any Individual loluaod to
submit his dispute with a neighbor
to disinterested parties and Insisted
upon being his own judge , ho would
violate ' ( the first principled of justlie.
If ho resorted to force In defense of
his right to Judge , ho would ho dls-
honoied as a breaker of the law. Thus ,
peace ! ' ' with Justice Is secured through
arbitration , never by one of the par
ties sitting ns judge In his own cause.
Nations being only aggiegutes of In
dividuals , they will not rench justice
In their Judgments until the same
rule holds good , viz- That they , like
Individuals ' , shall not sit OK judgps in
their own cause. What Is unjust for
n'
individuals , Is unjust for nations.
"Third It is neither peace nor Jus-
tlcc < , but righteousness that shall exalt
the nation.
"Answer Righteousness Is simply
doing ] what Is right. What Is Just Is
always ] right ; what Is unjust Is always
wrong ; It being the first principle of
Justice j , that men shall not be judges
In | their own cause , to refuse to sub-
mlt to Judge or arbitrator Is unjust ,
banco not right , for the essence or
righteousness Is Justice. Therefore ,
men who place Justice or righteousness
above peace practically proclaim that
.they will commit Injustice and discard
righteousness by constituting them-
solves solo Judges of their own cause
in violation of law , Justice and right ,
Civilized man has reached the conclu-
slon | that ho meets the claims of jus-
tlco and of right only by upholding
the present Velgn of law What Is
right for each Individual must be
right for the nation. The demand
that Interested parties shall sit In
judgment Is the wickedness that degrades
grades a nation. "
