As the French customs derive a big revenue from the traffic, it becomes delicate diplomatic matter for the Britisli government to attempt to Interfere with the trade with the Somalis. Danish Princess Thyra Tells Him She Will Not Marry His Son.' SPOILS HIS VACATION TRIP Snubbed at Court and by People, Kaiser Finds I-ast Straw in Princess, Who Believes in So cialism and Equal Rights. BERLIN, July 27. (Special.) The Kaiser has not had -nuch pleasure out of his ' vacation trip this Summer. When he went to Copenhagen he was received with cold politeness by the people, who thus expressed their op position to the Kaiser'- pet scheme for a match between his second son, Prince Adelbert, and Princess Thyra, of Den mark. As if to show her own feelings to ward the young prince, Princess Thyra. who is nothing if not sincere, refused to be one of the party which welcomed the imperial party and later on, while on the way to Freder:cKsburg castle, some 15 miles north of Copenhagen she greatly surprised the Kaiser by buttonholing him and telling him very plainly why she did not think the match would be a happy one. The contents of this unique conver sation have leaked out and it is being told here that the young Danish Prin cess informed the Kaiser that she could never be a good wife to a German Prince, brought up in the conservative air of the Prussian Court. "I am four years older than your son. and our tastes are entirely dif ferent. I love literature and art and Prince Adelbert is fond only of out door sports andcountry life. He shares your conventional ideas about woman's sphere in life, and I am too advanced. inclined to believe in socialism and, greatly interested in social work. I am furthermore a strong believer- In woman's suffrage." This confession was not without ef fect upon the Kaiser, who is said to have been morose and silent the re mainder of the trip, and has probably thanked his lucky star that prevented him getting such a black sheep Into his family. BEEF TRUST INVADES FRANCE Prepares to Erect Big Packing Houses at Several Towns. PARIS. July 27. (Special.) France is to have an American beef trust. This Information comes from the So ciety of French Cattle Breeders, which is naturally opposed to such a scheme, but definite news is wanting. According to a statement bv Marcel Vachcr, president of the Cattle Breed ers Society, land has been bought for building stockyards and packing- nouses at Bonneuil on the Marne. near Paris; at Graville, near Havre, and at VlUenave d Ornon, near Bordeaux. Plans for building have been sanc tioned by the municipalities, but per mission is still required from the pre fects of the respective departments. Monsieur vacher s opinion Is that the American beef packers, damaged by Upton Sinclair's "Jungle" revela tions, want to make a fresh start on European soil, believing that their canned goods, bearing French labels. might sell freely without the stigma of Chicago atachlng to the goods. The beef trust, says M. vacher, aims at supplying meat to France, England, Switzerland and Germany. In the lat ter country meat is scarce and dear. while prices are rapidly advancing In France. RAISULI FINDS AN ADMIRER! French Wqman Says Brigand Ii Noble, Brave, Generous. PARIS, July 27. (Special.)-Raisuli. th Moroccan brigand, has an admirer in Madame du Gast, who met him person ally during her mission to Morocco for the French government. Discussing Raisuli's last dramatic coup. which she described as "a very intelligent move, Madame du Gast paid a tribute to the "noble character of the brigand." I met him," she said, "at his own house at Zinat, four hours from Tangier. Ho strikes me as the type of Moroccan bri gand. He is brave, cruel and active) and, as so few Arabs show any initiative, he has been able to attract numbers of followers to himself. "I was received with great respect by Ralsuli, as, indeed, by all the leading Moors with whom I came into contact. Raisull can exhibit nobility and generos ity. When he captured Mr. Perlcardis, the American merchant, whom he treated extremely well, the prisoner's cook came to him and said he was deprived of a liv ing. Raisull gave him a plot of ground on the beach at Tangier, opposite the Hotel Cecil. Here the man has erected a wooden building and established a res taurant." MRS. FIELD, SPARTAN MOTHER Will Not Coddle Boy and Forms Contrast to Mrs. Drexel. LONDON, July 27. (Special.) Mrs. Marshall Field was one of the American mothers who went down to the cricket match played between fathers and sons at Evelyn's School in Buckinghamshire, the fashionable preparatory school for Eton. Mrs. Field is known as the "Spartan Mother." She does not believe in coddling or spoiling her son and the boy's allow ance of pocket money is exactly the same as that of the poorest boy in the school. Young Field is a very manly, self-reliant boy, with absolutely no airs or graces. and he is by far the mos,t popular boy in the school. A striking contrast was the way in which Mrs. A. J. Drexel. of Philadelphia. managed her offspring. When little Drexel had a toothache. Mrs. Drexel whisked him away from the school. Later on the boy had a cold. Down came Mrs. Drexel again and whisked him off to the Sunny South. The other boys of course drew unfavorable comparisons and accused Drexel of suffering from a swelled head' because he was so fond of talking about royalty. Young Drexel has now been whisked away from Evelyn s for good. Mrs. Mar shall Field has taken a very large and beautiful house In Hertfordshire on a long lease. It Is an old house known as Danes- bury and Mrs. Field is spending a very large sum in alterations. EXPECTS AMERICA-JAPAN WAR , i Prince Henry's Opinion Confirmed by Reports From Japan. BERLIN, July 27. (Special.) Prince Henry of Prussia, who is a great ad mirer of Americans, believes that a great war between Yankees and Japs must come very soon, probably before the American squadron reaches the Pa cific. Officially, of course, his lips are sealed, but privately he has discussed the matter quite freely. The brother of the Kaiser thinks, as do many others with him, that Amer leans are too prone to believe in the smooth words of the Japanese, and German consular reports from Japan seem to prove that Japan is pre paring to strike a blow before the Atlantic fleet reaches San Francisco. A little more civilized at least on the surface than are Mongolians, the Japanese have lost none of the old time cunning and are not to be trusted. The general feeling here in Germany is that the war must come and it is feared, too. that America will come out second best, which would be a calamity to the whole white race. SOUGHT REVENGE ON MORGAX Why Italian Customs Officer Searched Millionaire's Yacht. PARIS. July 27. (Special.) The inspec tion of Pierpont Morgan's yacht by the officials of the Italian customs at Venice has caused great amusement throughout Europe, although the millionaire himseir was much annoyed by It. What is not so well known Is that tna incident arises out of a duel between Mr. Morgan and the Italian custome dating some years back. Up to now Mr. Morgan has all through had the laugh on his side. When the famous Ascoli cope was of fered to Mr. Morgan, it having escaped the eagle eye of the customs and art commission, Mr. Morgan bought it. He then, as is well known, made a parcel oi it and returned it without Insuring it or even registering it to Ascoli. The King decorated him, but tne cus toms people and the art commissioners were excessively angry and vowed to have revenge which they have been try- ing to effect ever since, but wltnout any more satisfactory result to them than the failure Just recorded. GREAT VIOLINISTS IN COURT Brothers Ysaye Accused of Assault Ing Belgian Conductor. BRUSSELS. July 27. (Special.) Eugene Ysaye, the great violinist, and his brother Theo, the composer, were defendants in a prosecution for alleged assault, heard in the Antwerp courts. The prosecutor was a conductor on a train which took the two musicians from Antwerp to Brus sels after they had given a concert. The conductor's story was that, when he asked' the Ysayes to show their tickets, they abused him in violent lan guage and finally boxed his ears so hard that he has been deaf ever since. The brothers Ysaye denied that they assaulted the man, who, they say. came to them in the middle of the night and woke them out of their first sleep. All thev did. under that great provocation. was to call him a bore and a fool. They are now awaiting the judge's decision. MUCH MONEY IN GUN-RUNNING Americans Sell Rifles to Moors and , Savage Tribes. LONDON. July Z7. (Special.) Many ad venturous Americans are engaged In the business of gun-running, perhaps the most profitable and the most risky of all in dustries. It has lately had a boom In Morocco, where a demand for modern rifles has arisen. The north coast of Africa is one of the chief centers of the trade, the other im portant areas for gun-running being the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.
