By GEORGE DUFRESNE. Special Cable to The American. PARIS, Sept. 13 — When the Cham ber resumes. M. Ferdinand Bulsson will submit a report in the name of the Commission on Universal Suf frage favorable to women having the vote. The Paris Municipal Council haa also voted in favor of votes for! women. In order to ascertain wheth er women would be disposed to use ! the vote g it were given to them a j 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 i votes for women is a matter of sim ple equity, and argues that in those countries where the vote has been i accorded them the moral level has riseri. 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- I ess Fauqueux asserts that the law- does not protect the woman who I works nor the woman who possesses | a fortune. Maternal authority is tnsufficientlv i established, and she thiEJss the time ; has come for legislators io make trodern 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- I trieu, the intrepid aviator, woman i suffrage, though it might be accept- j able in Paris, would be disastrous in | the great industrial centers. “We; would have a revolution fomented by j a ba-nd of petroleuses," she says, i "Have you observed the attitude of i women during strikes?" she asks. “Their violence knows no limit. These j women would constitute the majority i of our sex. As for the others, believe ’ me, their place is with their children, i 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 i her husband to take her wages she | will not be in a position to stop j him.” Mme. Gladys Maxhance, of the 1 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, j make feminism amiable and smiling.! 265 Architects Plan German Embassy Committee Meets With Unexpected Response to Offer of Prize for Washington Building. iccial Cable to The American.

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 would 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 quietly 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, and his errat ic movements have caused some anx iety to the German Embassy. H.G.

Wells is spending this month in caravan ning in Kent, lie 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. Weils, 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 gion. The author labors under no ne cessity to write, for his income from royalties is between $10,000 and $15.- T»ou 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 cant of Jew’s, the maximum allowed in tho higher educational establishments in Russia, by drawing lots, 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 drawn success ful lottery numbers, to finish their education in France or Switzerland. Recently there has been somq feeling displayed both in Geneva University and in Sorbonne, in Paris, against foreign students. * Mr. Shakhoff says that if condi tions there prove unsatisfactory, lie w'ill inquire during his visit to the United States whether he can not send his protege to get an American education. Spurious Antiques Bait for Americans Cottages Along Roads Out of London ‘Planted’ With Alleged Old Furniture. Lady Camovs, Lady Decies and Duchess Chaulnes Rejoice in International Offspring. 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 j 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 I York girl within the past five years or so who has married into the no- I bility and who has given birth to a | child. 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 Decies, who was Helen Vivien Gould, daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. George Jay Gould. Miss Sherman was <>n#* of the bridesmaids when Lord Decies, one of tnc 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. Tho 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 w'as born in August of last year. Miss Shonts and the Due deChaul- nes were married in February, 1908. Six weeks latef* tho Duke died sud denly in Paris, and in the following November the young Duke was born. The birth of a son fully (established tho right of tho widowed Duchess to u. place in exclusive French society. 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 officer who visited the United States during the Spanish-American war, and at the same time spent several days at Camp Thomas in Chickamau 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, 1 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. "I must say,” he added, “that it has always been a puzzle to me why you have not increased the strength of your regular army. You hav»* th< money to do so without feeling the expense at all; you have no anti militarists as w r e have here in Ger many; nay, on tho contrary, your | people are pervaded by a stronger i spirit of patriotism than I have seen in any country outside of Japan, and ! Ptill you are satisfied with maintain ing an army which is a mere handful 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 i and enthusiastic body of men that I I saw at Camp Thomas during the i 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 1 seen such splendid crude ma- | terial for an invincible army; but, be- | lieve me. when I say that, military i training stands for sonything. To j 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. Special Cable to The American. PARIS, Sept. 13.—The automatic soldier, the deadliest instrument of war ever devised, has been patented by a Danish engineer, it is reported.

Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Sept. 13.—About $1,662.- 500 of Jewels, gold and bonds has been stolen during the last eighteen months by the member* of a gigan tic international trust of jewel thieves. Of all these immensely valuable gems few have been recovered, de spite the earnest and sagacloue 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 Tru»L The trust comprises at least six bands of scientific thieves. In the actual robberies, each band work® 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 Pari sians, a third of Englishmen. The Scotland Yard detective* 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-thieving on a whole sale scale, and accordingly the ap pointment of 50 or so trustworthy agents in the hitherto unexploited Cities of far-off continent*, though perhaps expensive for one or two gangs to attempt alone, became a simple propoaition for half a dozen to handle. “A rope of BO 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 $50,000 were stolen from the Credit Foncier d’Algerie Bank, Paris July 23, 1912: Jewels valued at $25,000 wer#stolen 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 were stolen from Senor Cruz, a diamond merchant of Lisbon. November 27. 1912: Gold Ingots, worth $25,000 were stolen during transit between Bremen and Switzer land. March 3, 1918: The Grand Duchess Marie Pavlowna was robbed at St. Petersburg of jewels valued at $200,- 000. June 16. 1913: Jewels valued at $12,500 were stolen from a well- 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.
