HILL'S PURSE TOO SLENDER
This Said to Be the Reason Objection
Was Hade to Him.
LONGWORTH SAYS SO IN HOUSE
Debate on Consular BUI Brings Oat
More Complete Details of tha
Famous Diplomat! In
eldest. WASHINGTON, April M. "The objection
to Dr. Hill as ambassador to Berlin was
Imply and solely that his private fortune
would not enable him to represent properly
the dignity of the American nation."
This statement was made today' in the
house. by Mr. Longworth of Ohio, son-in-
law of President Roosevelt, during the con
sideration of the diplomatic appropriation
bill. Mr. Long worth was' making a plea
for the maintenance by the government of
suitable legation buildings at the various
foreign capitals. He referred to the press
dispatches stated that the - German .em
peror had refused to accept Dr. Hill and
to the oftk'lal denial, given to the pub
lished stories. "Nevertheless." said Mr.
Longworth, "there Is no doubt that there
was a foundation for these stories beyond
mere rumor, and It is undoubtedly true
that persons high in authority In Germany
for some time have been saying that Dr.
Hill was not persona grata to the emperor."
These objection, however, he declared,
cpuld not he because Dr. Htllwas not ex
perienced in diplomacy, nor sufficiently
learned In international law nor that he
was not sufficiently able and representa
tive. Thoy were, he asserted, due to the
fact that "because he was not sufficiently
well off to pay the difference between the
amount paid him . as salary and the
amount necessary to maintain his position
as ambassador, he would not be able to
keep up such an establishment as that
of tha present ambassador, but would not
be able to keep up any establishment at
u? ...
Mr. Longworth said without going into
the question as to whether Mr. Tower had
maintained too luxurious an establish
ment that 'everybody would concede that
tha American ambassador to Germany
should at least have a house to live in and
not be compelled to live in a hotel or a
flat- "I- l no excuse," he said, "that we
do not act because financial conditions do
not warrant the exjwrae. An office-holding
aristocrat la bad enough in any. coun
try,' when based on birth and blood, .but
when based on wealth it Is Infinitely worse,
and worse than all In a republic. I would
say that any amour-t ot money was well

SUGGESTED CALENDAR REFORM
Proposed Method of Adjusting Work
Hoars to Length of the
Dar.
While the plan of William Willett for
lengthening our days in summer has ad
vanced in England to the point of the
introduction of a bill. It Is hardly likely
to receive the sanction of Parliament. It
is one of those things which are so simple
and sensible that they are not likely to
be adopted' for - a century at least.- The
essential point of Mr. Wlllott's proposal, It
may be recalled, is to move the- hands of
the. clock ahead twenty minutes .every
Sunday in April and to draw them back,
twenty minutes -every Bunday in Septem
ber. Such a gradual and regular adjust
ment would disturb no one and the re
sult would be that in the long summer
days noon would come at 10:40., banks
would close . at 1:40 instead of 8, by the
sun, and people, who work till would be
released at 4:40, with time for a good out
ing' before dark.. Work would begin! at
the same time, relatively to the sun, as in
winter, and the leisure hours of daylight
would be put together In a 'solid, service
able lump at. the end ot the day. If there
are any objections to this plan except its
novelty, they have not yet .been adduced,
and the advantages seem abvlous enough.
In England, too, a new. scheme for the
reformation of the calendar has been
brought forward by Alexander Philip,
which has several attractive features.
Ilia purpose has been to solve the old
problem of making each day of th month
fall always on the same day of week, and
to that end he has ' cut out New Tear's
day and Leap day, making each a holiday
not counted in the calendar. This leaves
fru days divided into four quarters of
ninety-one days each, and, shortening
some months and lengthening ethers, he
arrives at this symmetrical scheme: - JO,
80, 81; so, SO, 81; 80, 80, 31; 30, SO, 81.
Thus there would be a perpetual calendar,
the week and the month always agreeing,
and the convenience of the reform, to the
business world is obvious. Springfield Re

ST. PKTERSBURO. Apr; :S. The foreign
office is keenly Interested in Russia's little
frontier war in Persia. It Is the first oc
casion to arise for 'the active application
of Russia's rights, under the Anglo-Russian
agreement, to interfere to preserve order
in northern Persia. The operations them
selves are considered of mlnorf importance
and they will quickly come to an end
soon as the subsidence of the floods permits
tha movoment of the Russian detachments.
Russia counts upon the hearty support ot
Great Britain and no Interference on the
part of any other power.
. The foreign office -has no further news
of fighting. Tho Russian commander tele
graphs that the Persian Inhabitants along
the frontier have abandoned their villages
and fled to the mountains. The Russian
detachment Is still in Persian territory.
TIFLIS, April 18. The situation on the
Persian frontier arising from the activity
of bands of marauding Kurds has not ma
terlally Improved. The Persian bandits.
who retired into their mountain fastnesses
after their first successes against the Rus
slans, again concentrated in force yester
day and renewed their attack, against
Beleusvar. The Russians countered with
energy and their artillery bombarded aev
eral villages in which the brigands had
taken shelter. The Russian commander
has received orders to disperse and entirely
wipe out the brigand bands. Reinforce
ments are being sent Into blm ,from Baku
and Lenkoran. The expedition that went
In from Baku found its flanks to be me
naced by the brigands; It therefore occu
pied points in Persian territory In order
adequately to protect the line of commu
nication. In addition to the losses previ
ously reported the Russians hsve had
seven soldiers killed.
The Russian commander says in a report
that the Persian authorities have lost their
heads entirely and that anarchy reigns in
the district.
Advices received from Tabria are that
the governor of that city has received Im
perative orders from Teheran to hasten
the dispatch of a Persian force Into the
disturbed territory, sending all the regular
troops available.
Lieutenant General Mistchenko, governor
general of Tlflls, has left here for the
Kars district to supervise the precaution
ary measures Russia la taking along tha
Turkish frontier in view of the mobilisa
tion of Turkish troops on the other side
of the line. The people of Tlflls are con
siderably concerned over tms situation,
but higher military officials now profess
confidence that the Turkish measures are
not directed against Russia.
LABORER KILLED BY ENGINE

Conrad Kahler, a laboring man employed
as caretaker for a number ot cattle feeding

knocked down and had both legs cut off
below the knee by a Burlington switch
engine Friday evening about 1:, a short
distance north of the Union Pacific railroad
bridge along the river front. He was
hurried to the Omaha General hospital, but
died as he was being placed on the operating
lame.
The switch engine, which was coupled
head-on to a number of freight cars, was
backing north at a slow rate of speed, when
Kahler was seen to step onto the track In
the path of the engine, presumably to climb
onto the footboard and ride. It Is supposed
that he slipped and fell.
The man told M. H. Houk. in charge of
tha swltchir-c crew, that his nam was
Conrad Kahler and that he lived at Tenth

The only effects found in his clothes was
a silver cased watch of Waltham movement,

NEW RULE HITS HUTSHAW HAKD
Aasleas to Get Appropriations for
Beatrice sal ralrhary Xehraska
Towns Favored Survey ot
Logan Creek. i
tFrom a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, April 17.-(Speclal Tele
gram.) In all probability the omnibus,
public building Mil will be reported next
week, the committee on public buildings
and grounds of the house having agreed
upon the general provisions of the measure,
fsg ends ot the bill being the only thing
left for them to consider. In the considera
tion of the bill by the subcommittee, of
which Judge Norrls of Nebraska is chair
man, he has been constantly met with the
demand on the part of the Nebraska mem
bore td override the rule laid down by the
subcommittee that in no case should a
member receive more than an appropria
tion for a site and building, for the erection
of a building where a site has been pur
chased or for the purchase of a site. A
number of the Nebraska member, have
Introduced bills providing for the purchase
of a site and the erection of public build
ings at two or more places in their dis
tricts and in consequence of the demands
of l.!s colleagues 2ip Morris Is well nigh
tuckered out resisting trie efforts of his
friends on the Nebraska delegation to
make exceptions In their favor.
Congressman Hlnshaw has been espe
cially persistent In his efforts not only be
fore the subcommittee, but before the full
committee, to secure an appropriation for
the purchase of additional ground upon
wl ich to erect an extension of the Beatrice
postofflce, and he emphatically wants ' a
site snd public building st Palrbury. Ac
cording to the rule of the committee, Mr.
Hinshaw cannot get both propositions, and
in consequence he is pretty warm. It prob
ably will be put up to the congressman to
make his selection ss to which city he
wants to go Into the bill, which will keep
the congressman thinking for a time at
least.
What Nebraska. Gets.
The bill will carry an appropriation of
probably $60,000 for the erection of a public
building at Plattsmoulh, the site having
already been purctased. The reports, how.
ever, from Plattsmoulh are not reassuring,
the record showing that there has been
considerable falling oft in postal receipts
at that place and it is doubtful if PUlts
mouth would have been considered by the
committee had not the government already
purchased a site there.
Judge Boyd will be given an appropriation
for a site at Columbus. This, it is under
stood, is all that the representative of the
Third district has asked for, although he
Introduced a. bill for Fremont. Boyd be
lieves la going slowly as to public buildings,
appreciating that concentrated effort for a
single city is more likely to bring results
than the scattering of effort. He says that
he will take care of Fremont the next time.
In view of the fact that a term of federal
court is held at North Platte, Judge Kinkald
probably will be given an appropriation ot
$100,000 for the purchase of a site and the
erection thereon of a postofflce and court
house in North Platte.
Judge Norrls, member ot the committee,
will be content with an appropriation for
the purchase of a site at McCook. This, he
has told the people, is all they could reas
onably expect at this session.
Isrvey of Logan Creek.
C. G. Elliott of the engineer corps of the
Department of Agriculture, in an interview
had with Judge Boyd today, stated that
there would be quite a party of engineers
leave shortly for Nebraska to begin on
May 1 ihaklng surveys looking to the
straightening of Logan creek, which runs
through the counties of Cedar, Dixon,
Thurston, Cuming, Burt and Dodge. The
work wlli be begun at the source of Logan
creek, near Coleridge, Neb., and will cover
the entire course of the stream to Its mouth
near Hooper, where it empties into the
Elkhorn. This Is a preliminary step to the
reclamation ot lands in tha Logan valley.
The object is to shut out the old channel
of the stream and have It run in a compara
tively straight Una from Coleridge to
Hooper, a distance of about 100 miles. As
the stream now meanders through tortuous
channels, it travels a distance of 100 miles.
It is planned to build levees along the banks
so as to hold the stream within Its channel,
making 1,000,000 acres of the flneat farming
land In all Nebraska out of present pastures
and hay land.
Hallowcll Case Cemlag Vp Again.
The case of Hallowell against the United
States, growing out of the introduction of
liquor on an Indian allotment, which was
argued in the supreme court March 16, by
Thomas U. Sloan for the plaintiff in error,
and Solicitor General Hoyt for the United
Statea and in which the supreme court
later dismissed tha questions certified to
the court for consideration and determina
tion as the law points, now goes back to
the circuit court ot appeals for rectification.
It appears that the aupreme court held
that the questions certified to the supreme
court by the circuit court of appeals was
not In legal form and this dismissal does
not in any wis affect the points raised by
Hallowell, who was convicted of bringing
liquor Into the Omaha reservation.
Hallowell was sentenced to a term in jail,
but la out on ball. Solicitor Hoyt informed
Mr. Sloan today that the question would
be certified In proper form at the May
term of the clroult oourt of appeals, which
will sit In St. Paul next month. -

MORE PAY FOR THE ARMY
Conference Committee Agrees on This
Section of Approprlatloa BUI.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-The army Is
practically assured ot an Increase in pay.
The conference of the senate and house
have reached an agreement on this Item
of the srmy appropriation 1U substantially
along the lines of the senate amendment
which graded the authorized Increases ac
cording to the various branches of the
service. No agreement has been arrived st
on the appropriations for barracks and
quarters which was increased 11,472.590 by
the senate, making the total $4,500,000. The
senate struck out also a provision that
not more than 11,000,000 should be used for
new construction and not more than $100,000
at any one post. The house conferees
take the position that In the form In which
this appropriation has been l-ft by the
senate It would be possible to dlvert prac
tically the entire amount to one section
of the country and build up a great mili
tary post such as has not been the purpose
of congress. So dissatisfied did the house
conferees become at the last session that
they volod to postpone consideration of the
bill for a time. Representative Hull, chair
man of the house cpnferees. has gone to
Iowa, and there will be no further consider
ation of the measure until his return.

WASHINGTON, April 17,-Tha attitude
of Emperor William and the Berlin court

president to bs mbasmdor at that capital,
was subject of con merit in the house of
representatives today during the considera
tion of the diplomatic and consular bill.
Mr. Perkins of New York and Mr. Blayden
ot Texas expressed the opinion that the
objections to Mr, Hill were due to no other
csuse than that Mr. Hill wis financially
ut.able to maintain a certain standard of
social representation. Each of them con
demned the practice which they said riad
grown up of selecting men of great wealth

PROCEEDINGS OF THE SENATE
Bill to Limit Injunction Against
Stata Laws Is Passed.
WASHINGTON, April 17. Injunction
against tha enforcement of state lawa can
only be issued by a majority of three fed
eral Judges, who are to pass them If a bill
that passed the senate today becomes a
law. The bill was drafted In the Judiciary
committee from a number ot measures
under consideration. It was reported bv
Senator Overman and its provisions were
explained by him to tl,e senate. A substi
tute by Senator Burkett was disagreed to.
The Overman bill wax onDosed bv Mr. Hay-
burn on the ground trat the great distances

operate to delay the granting of necessary
injunctions. Senator Knox favored the
passage of the' bill and opposed Mr. Hey
burn's srgument. The senate discussed at
length the MU to appropriate the proceeds
from ths sale ot certain public lands for
the reclamation of swamp lands, but made
little progress towards Its passage.
For nearly two hours today the senate
discussed the Flint bill, appropriating all
moneys received from the sale of public

"WELCOME" SIGN MADE OF MEN
I'alqae nnd Remarkable Demonstra
tion of Friendliness by
the Chileans.
The battle fleet correspondent of the Chi
cago Tribune, describing the trip near tha
coast of Chile, says:
Daybreak on tha morning of February 14
showed a lowering sky, Just before 9
o'clock the Chilean coast could be made
out and then the fleet made one or two
turns and twists apparently to kill d little
time. Admiral Simpson took his place st
the head of the column which had been
formed and his three torpedo boata took
up positions on our right flank, tha side
nearest to the city In the harbor, so as to
protect the line from sny Intrusion. Just
before 1 o'clock we could make out tha
people on the high- hills south Of Angeles
Point, fittingly named, for a great ceme
tery sloped up tha hillside.
The place was black with spectators.
Around ths point we . could see the puffs
of a salute, given probably by one of tha
forts cr ships to note ths arrival of Presi
dent Montt. Then we came close to An
geles Point. The beach waa thronged.
There were tents where glmcracks were
being sold and double-decker tram cars
were loaded "to the limit. It seemed as If
all Valparaiso had rome out to that place.
The glasses were turned 'Upon Fort Val
dlvla. Just beyond Point Angeles. It Is a
nsysl station.
Suddenly a midshipman discovered that
there was a sign In English on one of Us
terraces. It said:
"Welcome!
"That's mighty nice to whitewash a lot
of stones In that wsy, Isn't it?" said ga
officer on the bridge.
Three minutes later s young officer sang
out:
A dosen glasses were focused on the sign
at once. Sure enough, atretched upon ths
terrace, there lay a human sign, made up
of sailors or naval cadets In white. It .took
three men's length to make the height of
a single letter. 'Two men' were required
for the top snd bottom of the letter O.
One man was sufficient each fr tha
curved upper and lower part of ths letter.
These men must not have been entirely
comfortable, for they lay there fully an
hour, but the sign was ss Immobile as If It
ware made of stone. That compliment
touched the kindly feeling of everyone on
the ships. It made a sensation. No one
had ever seen anything like that. Thera
was no wsy of answering it to kind, as you
ean in saluting; you could only look at It
In dumb amazement and feel grateful.
