Women Declare That Franchise Will Mean Much Toward Moral Uplift of the Republic, By GEORGE DUFRESNE. Special Cable to The American. PARIS, Sept. 13.—When the Cham ber resumes, M. Ferdinand Buisson will submit a report in the name of the Commission on Universal Suf frage favorable to women having the vote. The Paris Municipal Council has also voted in favor of votes for women. In order to ascertain wheth er women would be disposed to use the vote if it were given to them a Paris daily recently organized a sort of symposium on the subject and in vited opinions from prominent wo men. The Duchess d’Uzes considers that votes for women is a matter of sim ple equity, and argues that in those countries where the vote has been accorded them the moral level has risen. Mile. Helene Miropolsky, who is a practicing lawyer, declares that in criminal jurisprudence it is a fla grant injustice that women should not be included on Juries, and Baron ess Fauqueux asserts that the law does not protect the woman who works nor the woman who possesses a fortune. Maternal authority is insufficiently established, and she thitika the time has come for legislators io make modern code. The feminine vote, which would modify the spirit of the code, would have the support of the people and the approval of the di recting classes. In the opinion of Mile. Helene Du* trieu, the intrepid aviator, woman suffrage, thoygh it might be accept able in Paris, would be disastrous in the great industrial centers. “We would have a revolution fomented by a band of petroleuses,” .she says. “Have you observed the attitude of women during strikes?” she asks. “Their violence knows no limit. These women would constitute the majority of our sex. As for the others, believe me, their place is with their children, and your reforms would have no use fulness for them. You will never pre vent an unhappy wife from being beaten,” she says, “and if it pleases her husband to take her wages she will not be in a position to stop him.” Mme. Gladys Maxhance, of the Odeon Theater, says that women have distinct qualities which, united, can give excellent results. She sug gests that women should simply offer to collaborate with men—in a word, make feminism amiable and smiling. 265 Architects Plan German Embassy Committee Meets With Unexpected Response to Offer of Prize for Washington Building. >eclal Cable to The American.

II. S. HIT'S IS HOPELESS, SAYS GERMAN EXPERT Officer Who Visited Chickamauga During Spanish-American War Calls Guard No Protection. By STEVEN BURNETT. Special Cable to The American. BERLIN, Sept. 13.—A high German I officer who visited the United States j during the Spanish-American war, and at the same time spent several I days at Camp Thomas In Chickarnau- ga Park, while about 40,000 troops of the American National Guard were en camped there, the other day express ed his views on the American-Mexi- can imbroglio to me. They were not without interest to my American readers, I think, although they may not agree with him. “You would have no trouble In making Mexico give in Immediately to your demands,” he said, "if you had possessed a regular army worthy the size and importance of your great country, but General Huerta knew’ that you were not prepared to back up your demands with bayonets and that it would be too great a risk for you to try to coerce Mexico by force of arms. *T must say,” he added, “that it has always been a puzzle to jne why you have not increased the strength of your regular army. You have the money to do so without feeling the expense at all; you have no anti militarists as we have here in Ger many; nay, on the contrary, your people are pervaded by a stronger spirit of patriotism than I have seen in any country outside of Japan, and still you are satisfied with maintain ing an army which is a mere handful j of men which would not be able to defend you In case, say, of Japan, trying to attack you before the open ing of the Panama Canal. “You may say that you have your National Guard, but without wanting to hurt the feelings of that patriotic and enthusiastic body of men that I saw at Camp Thomas during the Spanish war, I can not help saying that two or three regiments of Japs would be able to beat them in no time, simply because they lacked dis cipline and training. Let me say this.” he concluded, “that nowhere have I seen such splendid crude ma terial for an invincible army; but, be lieve me, when I say that, military training stands for something. To attempt to oppose a modern-trained : and modernly-armed enemy with your National Guardsmen would be noth- i ing less than criminal.” Automatic Soldier Worked by Wireless Invented by Dane Experts Say It Is Deadliest Instru ment of War Ever Devised, Shoots, Then Disappears. JEWEL THIEVES OS INCOGNITO 81 PERSECUTED ENGLISH HIT IS T8 KBIT 8. S. Crown Prince of Germany, Wife and Three Brothers Wander ing Through Island, Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Sept. 13.—Four of Em peror William’s sons have invaded England recently. They are in the strictest incognito, which is just as well, else some ultra-jingoes W’ould be crying, “German spies.” Crown Prince William and his vi vacious wife have been traveling for a fortnight as the Count and Countess of Hohenstein of Potsdam. They stayed for some days at Clifton. The Crown Princess also tried the famous waters at Bath. Prince August William and Prince Eitel Frederick have been seen prom enading the streets of Edinburgh, while the youngest son, Joachim, is also somewhere in Scotland. The Kaiser readily gave his sons permission to visit England on the strict understanding, however, that they were to go about as qifietly as possible, just like ordinary private cit izens. This was precisely what his sons wanted, more especially the Crown Prince, who, although appearing anti- British when his countrymen expect him to be so. is really devoted to everything English. Young Prince Joachim, who is the liveliest of the four, positively refused to have any attendants, arid his errat ic movements have caused some anx iety to the German Embassy. H.G. Wells Becomes Ardent Caravanner Novelist Finds He Can Do Better Work in One-Horse Wagon Than House. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Sept. 13.—H. G. Wells Is spending this month in caravan ning in Kent. He has recently be come an ardent member of the Cara van Club, and for the last week or two he and his one-horse caravan have been peregrinating in the neigh borhood of Sevenoaks. Mr. Wells, who all his life has been keen on exercise and all outdoor things, says he finds he does more satisfactory literary work in a cara van than in a study. His next novel, which will appear in the autumn, is to deal with the eternal problem of established reli- I gion. The author labors under no ne cessity to write, for his income from ' royalties is between $10,000 and $15,- 000 a year. For a single column in the daily papers he is paid $160. Special Cable to The American. ST. PETERSBURG. Sept. 13.—N. A. Shakhoff, the famous Moscow mil lionaire, is starting for New York next week on his first visit to the United States. Mr. Shakhoff is famous through out.Russia as the man who brings up and educates the children of people who have got into political trouble. Some months ago, when the political police in St. Petersburg raided the Witmer Academy on the ground that the pupils were reading liberationist literature, the latter were forbidden entrance into any educational institu tion in Russia. Mr. Shakhoff forth with defrayed the travel, board and education fees of any of them who wished to complete their training out side of Russia. Recently the Russian Education Department selected the 5 per cent of Jew’s, the maximum allowed in the higher educational establishments in Russia, by draw’ing lota, instead of. as previously, after an examination. Mr. Shakhoff, who is an Orthodox Rus sian Christian, is now sending many of those -who had gold medal quali fications, but had not draw’n success ful lottery nurhbers, to finish their education in France or Switzerland. Recently there has been some, feeling displayed both in Geneva University and In Sorbonne, in Paris, against foreign students. Mr. Shakhoff says that if condi tions there prove unsatisfactory, he will inquire during his visit to. the United States whether he can not send his protege to get an American education. Daughter of Kaiser Meets Hoi Polloi Shows Independence by Spending Hour in Hotel Tea Room, Un recognized by Crowd. Special Cable to The American. BERLIN, Sept. 13.—Princess Vic- I toria Louise, the Kaiser’s only daugh- ! ter, recently wedded to the Duke of J Brunswick, upset the royal traditions this week by taking seats at the only vacant tea tables at the Hotel Adlon, where they were wedged in between a successful New York lawyer and the representative of a Chicago pack ing interest. Few recognized the pair, nnd for an hour the Princess scanned the crowd, keeping her big husband duly supplied with tea talk. Under the traditions of the Gor man court, members of the royal | family are not to appear in places j where they might come into contact with ordinary mortals. Hitherto I the Princess has strictly obeyed these restrictions, but now’ she is us- 1 serting her Independence. Lady Camovs, Lady Decies and Duchess Chaulnes Rejoice in International Offspring. De Spurious Antiques Bait for Americans Cottages Along Roads Out of London ‘Planted’ With Alleged Old Furniture. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Sept. 13.—Pieces of “an tique” furniture, whose origin only the Bond street dealers know’, are increasing. Business is booming in alleged Jacobean sideboards, old dressers and Georgian corner cup boards. A new scheme has increased the trade. The spurious furniture is | placed in cottages on roads most j frequented by Americans and other ; foreign motorists and tourists. "Unwillingly” the cottagers sell their “heirlooms” for a high price, j If the buyer should pass again he would find precisely similar "an tiques” awaiting a new purchaser. Special Cable to The American. LONDON. Sept. 13.—The charm of Yankee girls is Americanizing the blue blood of some of the most aris tocratic families in Europe. Lady Camoys, who was Miss Mil dred Sherman, of New York, is the latest American girl to aid in this movement. She is the mother of a fine baby boy, whose American ances try is spoken by every feature of his face. Lady Camoys is the third New York girl within the past five years or so who has married into the no bility and who has given birth to a chilfj. The two other American peer esses who are the mothers of titled heirs tare the Duchess deChaulnes, formerly Miss Theodora Shonts, daughter of Theodore P. Shonts, the traction magnate, and Lady Defies, w’ho was Helen Vivien Gould, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs, George Jay Gould. Miss Sherman was one of the bridesmaids when Lord Decies, one of the Beresfords, led Miss Gould to the altar in February. 1911, in St. Bartholomew's Church in this city. Lord Camoys, a friend of the bride groom, came to thi* country to attend the wedding and he and Miss Sher man met for the first time. Before long it became apparent to their friends that there was going to be another wedding march. Expecta tions in this direction were fulfilled and in November of the same year the heiress to the millions of Mr. and Mrs. William Watts Sherman was married to the head of one of the most ancient houses of Great Britain. The ceremony, in startling contrast to the pomp and splendor of previous inernational matches, was performed in a tiny room on the third floor of the Sherman mansion, 838 Fifth Ave nue. it was stipulated at the time of the marriage that any issue of the union was to be brought up in the Catholic faith. Lady Camoys’ mother sailed from America in March and was at her daughter’s bedside when her son was born. The marriage of Miss Gould and Lord Decies was an event that will long be remembered by New York Society. The ceremony was perform ed by Bishop Greer in the presence of many members of the nobility and of distinguished American families. A baby girl was born in August of last year. Miss Shonts and the Due deChaul- nos were married in February, 1908. Six weeks later the Duke died sud denly in Paris, and In the following November the young Duke w'as born. The birth of a son fully established the right of the widowed Duchess to a place in exclusive French society.

Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Rept. 13.—About $1,662.-- 500 of Jewels, gold and bonda has been stolen during the last eighteen months by the members of a gigan tic international trust of jewel thlefves. Of all these Immensely valuable gem* few have been recovered, de spite the earnest and sagactoue ef forts of the detectives of seven coun tries. America, England, Russia, Bel gium, France, Holland and Germany. These astounding statements are made on the authority of the highest officials of Scotland Yard, They say that the search for Max Mayer’s $750,000 peArl necklace, stolen in transit by registered mail from Lon don to Paris last July, revealed the existence of this international trust of Jewel thieves. Six Bands In the Trust. The trust comprises at least six bands of scientific thieves. In the actual robberies, each band works by itself, they combine only to dis pose of their spoils. Two of the bands are American, one is composed mainly of Russians, another of Part- elans, a third of Englishmen. The Scotland Yard detectives as sert the bands combined two years ago so that thye might find new markets and so outwit the police of Europe and America, who had learn-' ed where they sold their loot. Said a Scotland Yard inspector to day: "There is no business so profitable as that of Jewel-thlevlng on a whole sale scale, and accordingly the ap pointment of 60 or so trustworthy agents in the hitherto unexplolted cities of far-off continents, though perhaps expensive for one or two gangs to attempt alone, became a simple proposition for half a dozen to handle. “A rope of B0 pearls can be broken up, and through this organization be disposed of In a dozen cities as far apart as Melbourne and Pekin.” Here is a list of the ten successful thefts, involving $1,662,000 committed by the members of the international combine in the last eighteen months: Some Recent Robberies. March 14, 1912: Jewels valued at $25,000 were stolen during transit by train from Paris to Amsterdam. July 12, 1912: Three bonds valued at $60,000 were ■Rolen from tha Credit Fonder d’Algerie Bank, Paris. July 23, 1912: Jewels valued at $25,^00 were Rolen from the Princess of Thurn and Taxis at Ostend. July 31, 1912: At Moscow the Princess Schakowski was robbed of gems valued at over $500,000. August 4, 1912: Jewels valued at $75,000 w’ere stolen from Senor Cruz, a diamond merchant of Lisbon. November 27, 1912: Gold Ingots, W'orth $25,000 were stolen during transit between Bremen and Switzer land. ' March 3, 1913: The Grand Duchess Marie Pavlowna ti a robbed at St. Petersburg of Jewels valued at $200,- 000. June 16. 1913- Jewels valued at $12,500 were stolen from a w’ell- known Paris hotel. July 16. 1913: The theft of the $750,000 necklace during transit by post from Paris to London. The Scotland Yard inspector ha* left out of his reckoning the value of the jewels stolen at American sum mer resorts estimated at $300,000 in 1911—the year the international trus- was organized—somewhat less in 1912 and $500,000 in 1913.
