WILL ACCOMPLISH NOTHING Explore Going Again to Antarctic and Expects to Explode Darwin's Theory of Origin of Life on Earth. PARIS, Aug. 31. (Special.) Dr. John Charcot, the celebrate scientist and Antarctic explorer, who counts upon starting for the South Polar regions next week, spoke freely today about his plans and hopes. Incidentally, in speaking of Walter Wellman and the Record-Herald expedition in quest of the North Pole, Dr. Charcot said that Mr. Wellman is an enthusiast who refuses to listen to arguments. His expedition." added he, "is a wild attempt. Even if tie should reach the pole by some extraordinary piece of luck, how would he know when he gets there? The only possible way would be to land and take observations, which would require 12 hours' lapse of time. The observa tions, always difficult, would be practical ly impossible for a balloon expedition." Deductions from the scientific data he gathered on. his last expedition may lead Dr. Charcot in this new venture ;o. dis coveries tending toward a complete revis ing of the whole theory of Darwinism? "I have reached the conclusion from my observations." said Dr. Charcot, "that the southern hemisphere developed life independently of the northern; that, in fact, the two hemispheres were sep aratedif not actually in space, yet vir tually by an impassable zone of molten material for sometime after life had be gun to develop in the cooler regions toward the separate poles. "Forms of life are quite distinct in the southern hemisphere, which Includes Australia, Madagascar and portions of South America and South Africa, where the .flora and fauna are vastly different from those north of the equator. After the earth cooled, animals from the north migrated toward the south, and those from the south to the north. Their meet ing -took place about the latitude of Buenos Ayres, the law of the survival of the fittest caused the southern animals to succumb. "I am convinced that in the South Polar regions new types of animals may be found in fossil remains." "WAITS FOR GOOD WEATHER Wellman Can't Start for Pole Till After Middle of September. HAMMERFEST, Aug. 31. (Special.) Walter WTellman and his companions are still waiting for favorable meteorological conditions before starting for the North Pole. Though up to the present condi tions have not permitted of a start being made, the explorer has still a fortnight before him. After that date the advent of the long Arctic night would seriously interfere with the Buccess of the expedi tion. FRENCH NATURE THEATER Triumph of Love Over Goodness De picted in Real Life. PARTS, Aug. 31. (Special.) A "nature theater" is the very latest for Paris. It has been pitched at Caterets in a pic turesque and romantic spot, and It has successfully given Its first performance. The play was by one of the new genera tion of poets, Maurice Magre, and Is cnHed "Velleda." The plot goes to show that in the earlier centuries of the Chris tion religion and before it had any great hold on the people of Gaul, a dispute arose between Venus, goddess of love, representing the old heathen religion, end a new goddess, Goodness, who had at tracted many disciples. Velleda is a priestess of the Druids, and she falls a victim to the fury of the partisans of both goddesses, for she has accepted the religion of Goodness while still feeling the sovereignty of love. The appearance of Venus at the height of the mount on which the theater in open air is situated was very striking, and very modern French. It. is a sign of the times that the play did not lean toward the Chris tian religion, but rather sought to elimi nate it. WILL NOT BECOME EDITOR Loeb Scorns Story That Roosevelt Will Buy New York Tribune. OYSTER BAT, L. I., Aug. 31. (Special.) President Roosevelt has no intention of taking up a newspaper career when he finishes his term. Secretary Loeb de nounced the report that President was negotiating for control of the New York Tribune as a "fake made out of whole cloth." "No such plans have been thought of," said Mr. Loeb. "Neither would the Presi dent consider It for a moment. The very Idea of a former President conducting a newspaper and critising the acts of his successor is as undignified as it is preposterous." ANARCHY RULES MOROCCO Tribesmen Win Victory and Cut throats Threaten Foreigners. PARIS. Aug. 31. A dispatch to the Matin from Tangier says the situation In Morocco is growing more alarming.

The frauds are estimated at $200,000. IT IS HARDLY FAIRLY BEGUN IXTERMYER'S OPINION ON ANTI-TRUST CAMPAIGN. President's Action Wise, but Crim inal Law Must Act and Tariff Recognized as Involved. PARIS, Aug. 31. (Special.) Samuel TJntermyer, who is now at the Hotel Ritz, In the course of an interview to day said: "I am not an authority on questions pertaining to the stock market, but I consider the condition of the stock market, past, present and future, about the least important question in the United States, either just now or at any other time. Wall street takes it self too seriously, it is not a faithful barometer of conditions. "I consider the President's action thus far to enforce the laws against corporations to be wise and far-seeing. Thus far he has hardly fairly begun. Other growing evils of the trusts have not yet been effectively assailed and never will be until the machinery of the criminal law is set in motion, nor until the tariff is recognized as an in tegral part of the trust question." Paris Wind Takes Straw Hat. PARIS, Aug. 31. (Special.) W. A. Gas line, of Toledo, brother-in-law of the late Senator Hanna, who has been viewing the sights of Paris, tells of an unpleasant experience as follows: "I don't like French hats at all. I made a special point, therefore, to bring over with me an American straw of the latest fashion. Owing to the continued cool weather, I waited and waited for a bright, warm day to' wear it. At last the day came, and I took the boat for St. Cloud, wearing the hat for the first time. The boat had just started when my hat was lifted oft from my head and sailed off into the river. Everybody laughed, of course. Now I am wearing a French hat and waiting patiently until I can get to New York to buy another." "In Amsterdam one day I noticed the population all hurrying In a certain di rection." said Gasline. "and I asked if there was a fire. What do you think they told me? That It was the hour for Amsterdam people to get out and exer cise." ' CANADA TO INSPECT MEAT Law Modeled on That of United States Soon to Be Effective. ' OTTAWA. Aug. 31. (Special.)

Captain Frelle, formerly of the steam ship China, who was sent from San Francisco to bring out the Kansas City, and who reported adversely as to her condition, is on the' ground, and if the Birmingham is in first-class shae when lifted on drydock, he will start for the Coast immediately: The City of Birmingham Is a speedy steamer and has been operating between New York and Savannah for a number of years. She is of several tons greater measurement than the Kansas City, but Is shorter and of less beam. Her passen ger accommodations are not as large as the Kansas City's. Theity of Birm ingham was built at Chester, Pa., in 1SS8. Her dimensions are: Length, 301 feet; beam, 42.5 feet; depth of hold. 16.7 feet.

AVGVST EXPORTS, FOREIGN Values Are Greater Than Last Year, But Quantity Is Less. Flour exports, foreign, for the month of August amounted to 31.941 barrels, valued at $123,399. This was less than one-half of the amount dispatched dur ing the same period last year. The lum ber shipments were practically the same. During the month of August, 1906, 12.990, 000 feet of lumber were sent across seas. The value placed on this material was $1S5,439. During the month which closed yesterday the value of the timber car ried was placed at $193,128. The total value of exports for the en tire month amounted to $366,945. In point of value lumber made up the greatest portion of the cargoes. Flour came next and general cargo last. The coastwise lumber fleet is looking a trifle better than for some time. The carriers got away with 4.502,200. mostly consigned to dealers in San Francisco. While this is only about one-third of the amount which was shipped South during the months of February and March, it is better than the California shipments of last year for a corresponding period. YOLA IS STILL HOLDING OUT Owners of British Ship Want 29s for Outward Charter.

Prince Nicholas of Montenegro sorely regrets ever having given his subjects a constitution. The Prince used to sit under a great tree in the market-place at Cettinje and there dispense law and justice, and give directions for the execution of both. That was 14 months ago. Since the constitution was pro mulgated there have been two general elections, four cabinet changes, two rebellions, three fatal riots, a military conspiracy and the end is not yet. Some years ago the Czarina, Maria Alexandrovna. established a female college in Cettinje and sunplied it with money and Russian teachers. In one of the rooms of the college, that of the senior class, hung a picture' of Prince Nicholas in a gilt frame. The girls of this class happen to be the daughters of members of the demo cratic party, which the Prince has de clared was composed of traitors. One day these girls tore the picture down and danced upon the fragments. Then books and furniture fared a similar fate. The government heard of the trouble and sent its Chief of Secret Police to investigate. M. Yanko Angelat, which Is the name of that formidable person age, came. He found 30 seniors ar rayed in their best. They surrounded him with murmurs of pleasure at his uniform, and presented him with a magnificent bouquet of roses. M. An gelat bowed low and held the flowers to his noset Then he began to sneeze, then to cough violently. Then tears rolled down his cheeks and he sat down. The girls hovering near showed their solicitude by advising him to go to the hospital and have the offending member removed, so that in the future J he would mind niR own business. v nen he finally went away; gleeful laughter followed him into the street. He re ported to the Prince for orders. Tao Prince heard his story, buried his face in his handkerchief, and told him there were none.

He said that the King was a man of won derful muscular strength and perfect physical energy. He was an adept at field sports, and few would be able to excel or equal him in physical exercises.

NOT PRESIDENT'S FAULT Senator Says Slump in Stocks Affect ed French Market Prices Held Down by the Uncertainty About Legislation. PARIS, Aug. 31. "Legislation with out investigation, and not the Presi dent or his Administration. Is mainly responsible for the slump in American stocks." Thus spoke Senator Chauncey M. De pew today. Mr. and Mrs. Depew, who arrived in Paris two 'days ago from Carlsbad, left today on the St. Louis from Cherbourg. "An unfortunate feature of the state of the American market," continued Mr. Depew. "Is the bad Impression It Is making in France. American secur ities were just getting a foothold in France and the French people were taking big blocks of stock. Holders of those stocks are unable to under stand the big drops in market values. Many French buyers of American se curities are disposed to think that. If something is the matter with the market prices of stocks, there must be something the matter with underlying conditions In America. "In passing laws regulating passen ger rates per mile, the situations and conditions of different railroads should be taken Into consideration. Some rail roads can afford to carry passengers at 2 cents a mile and some cannot. The actual cost to some companies may be 5 cents a mile, so that, if forced to do business on a 2-cent basis, they will be losing money at a rapid rate on their passenger traffic.

SCORNS MODERN CLOTHES- WOMAN" WEARS NEITHER SHOES XOR STOCKINGS. Loose Gown Her Only Garment on Ocean Liner Closely Watched on Promenade Deck. NEW YORK. Aug. 31. (Special.) There arrived today on the steamship Loralne a young woman who does not believe in nature faking. She frowns upon pads, corsets and all the rest that go to make the female form divine. Even snoes and stockings she views with con tempt. And as for a multiplicity of un dergarments, she regards those things as altogether unnecessary. The Ideal costume, according to this remarkable young woman. Miss Eva Palmer, who, by the way, is a New Yorker, is a loose gown-, nothing more. When she applied for passage aboard the Loraine. she gave a brief synopsis of her views on the clothing question to the ticket agent. "Do you adhere strictly to your be liefs?" he falteringly Inquired. "Certainly," she replied. The ticket agent was stumped. The young woman, however, came to his rescue. . "My attire aboard ship will be perfectly proper,-' she said. "Only I shall wear sandals instead of shoes." This compromise satisfied the ' aent, but Miss Palmer had neglected to tell the agent that stockings were not Included in her costume. As a result, persons who had heard of the Kneipp cure watched Miss Palmer with a great deal of interest whenever she appeared on the promenade deck. See Heidelberg Bank, On Page 4 Second Section.
