universal, It prevailed In all countries. The
Germans, In fact, were the first to break it.
So far as can now be recalled there 1
only one caw where marriage with a for
eigner really did harm to diplomatist of
the modern school. This undoubtedly was
the case with Herr von Radowlts. He and
M. De Nelidoff were both In Constantinople
together. As they were married to sisters
there was naturally a great intimacy be
tween the famille of the German anl. the
Russian embassies.. At that time, . however,
there was considerable opposition in Ger
man and Ru.Hsiar Interest at Constanti
nople and .the Wyhenfctraiwe was . of . the,
opinion that Herr von Radowlts did iuH
show sufficient energy in defending "them
against hi brother-in-law.., Thla Is what led
to Jlerr ven Radowttz' transfer, to Madrid.
The j transfer wa , carried out greatly
against his wilt, and he does not like the
Spanish capital. Frau von Radowtti liken

of the year on the estate of her husband
In Germany and only makes , minimum
stay !n Madrid to dispense the hospitality
of the German1 embassy In the season.
.The Mad . Itl-sK Otto.
The newspapers here have been printing
many Incidents In connection with the
fifty-ninth birthday of the mad King Otto,
who Is Incarcerated In the castle of Fucr
stenried, and whose birthday was cele
brated by the Inhabitant of Bavaria In the
same loyal manner a If he was still upon
the throne of Munich.
The report that King Otto has wasted
to a mere shadow is denied, He passes his
days walking dreamily through the hulls
and the gardens of the castle, staring
blankly Into space "looking for the past,"

WASHINGTON. May 18 Senator Foraker
today Issued a spirited rejoinder to th
stutement mude public In Columbus, O..
yesterday uy Chairman Blown of the re
publican central committee embodying hih
view and thosi of Governor Harris and
othe. statu officials respecting Ohio
choice of a candidate for president. The
senator says It is "dlfliculi to make a
polite answer," to a part of Chairman
Brown's stutement, declaring that "for
rank, dictatorial and offciiHive boWBlcm, it
far exceeds anything I can recall." ..
Ha gives definite notice thut he not .only
resents Chairman Brown's dictation, but
that his choice for the presidency will bo
named by the next convention of Ohio re
publicans and that be will abide by that
Choice. - ' .' ' - , ' -

statement: -"' , '

Jf the republicans of Ohio are- all, or
"overwhelmingly," or even toy a ban? ran-,
fority, in favor of Secretary Tfift, h'a
friends nej not either fear the primaries
or be In a hurry about holding them.
No one nod suffer, certainly not wrong
fully, If we proceed In crder, instead of
trying to rush conclusions by unofficial
announcements and declarations.
So far as the control of the state or
ganisation Is concerned, I have never made
any claim to that. I have always ("apposed
thHt organizations were mere party ma
chines and not the personal property of
any one, not even tlie chairman of .the
state central committee.
As to the rest of Mr. Brown's statement
It Is difficult to. make a polite answer. For
rank, dictatorial and offensive bossism, It
far exceed anything 1 can recull. It
amount to a threat that unless I straight
way declare for Mr. Taft I shall lose the
senatortihip. That may be, but if so the
Taut hi no terrors for me.

Reply from Chnlrmun llronn
TOLEDO, O., May lS-r-Chairman Walter
F. Brown of the state central committee
would not discuss today the possible po
litical effect "of Senator Fornker'a latest
challenge.
He refused to say whether this would be
considered ground for calling a state ccn
veutton, at which Taft would be endorsed
and the senators possibly to criticism.
Of the Foraker allusion to himself,, as a
boss. Mr. Brown would enly say:
"Some time ago I defined a boss to be
one active In pcllllcs, but who fails to do
that which he is directed by the person
applying the term. I have nothing to add
to that detlnit,lon."

COLUMBUS. O.. May 18 Whether the I
j general assembly of the Presbyterian )
I church shall endorse the effort' of, the
I church temperance federation or shall I
I give Its undivided support ' to the Anil- ,
i Saloon ten-rue is a question which 'lll I
i he pressed for settlement before the as
; sembly nt the earliest moment, probably
' next Wednesday. The controversy, whl.-h j
started when the inter-church federation
; In Pennsylvania and the Anti-Saloon :
lb-ague disputed over temperance leglsla- j
1 tlon In that state, cropped out In the j
1 general assembly today when Dr. DavM i
Wills of Oswego, N. Y.. who had been
j appointed chairman of the temperance
j committee, .resigned and Dr. Henry K.
Dosker of Louisville was appointed to suc
ceed him. Dr. Wills refused to discuss
i his reasons for resigning, but It was Jttld
that he did rVt cure to be in the thick
of the fray.
The question as to which movement the
- assembly shall endorse, may not be al
lowed to go to the temperance committee,
' however, although the matter is discussed
In the report of that commltteo. The
present plan Is to bring the matter u: In
; tho assembly Wednesday on overture
from the Presbyteries of Carlisle, Chlcaga,
Mlnnewaukon and Phoenix. Tho effort
, to organize a church temperance federa-
tlon Is unwise.
That these overtures will receive strong
support Is conceded, but none can be
found who la willing to predict the out
come. Tho assembly held but ono session to
day, which was given over to the report
of the commltteo on ministerial rell-f.
Tonight there was an evangelistic rally
at Memorial hull.
Tomorrow the pulpits of most of the
local churches will be occupied by visit

At the session of the assembly today
lyioclerator Roberts look the vexed telnper
unce question by the horns by appointing
Rov. Henry K. Dosker of Louisville as suc
cessor to Rev. David Wills, Jr., of Oswego.
N. Y., who created somewnat of a sensa
tion' today by announcing that he would!
not accept the appointment ns chairman
because of the fight In the committee over
the temperance question. The controversy
Is Involving nearly all the commissioned
now In attendance at the assembly, ' but It
did not get to th floor of the assembly to
day because; of adjournment to Monday
soon after noon. Moderator Roberts, ac
uprding -to a. statement be made after ad
journment, is determined that . the tem
perance question shall be settled at this
meeting. He said: ' i . ,
"I appointed Rev. Dr. Dosker because I
know him to be man who has not taken
cither sid; of the temperance question and
therefore I hope for some definite action
by the committee through htm -an chair

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, May 18-( Special.) Ar
rangements hnve been completed fof the
building and equipment of an automobile
railroad In Oklahoma, and It la given out
that within a shoft time announcement
will be made of the building of one of the
lines In Iowa, arrangements to that end
being now all but completed. DMrlng the
last session of tho legislature a bill was
enacted putting automobile railroads on a
par with lnterurbans and other lines and
authorising them to do business In Iowa.
Since then the Idea of the Kystem has
spread, and according to-p'esent Indications
Des Moines will bo a center for manufac

the Idea, as secretary' and manager.
The Idea of the Inventor Is to ' provide
cheap transportation. . The railroad whT he
built with a cement track and the auto

provide quick,, cheap service. There will -be
no expensive power plant or trolley wire
and poles. Arrangements are being carried
forward to put the line In operation Iw
tween Oelweln and seme of the cltte sur
rounding It. The ystem appeals -because;
of Its cheap construction, since It can be
built for about one-third what It cost to
bulid an ordinary Interurban Una. '
