not trading" was the basis for com

has been before ns a sort of tribute
to Colonel Roosevelt."

mony. Mr. Mann added that he was
willing to fight "if others want to
force it on me."

JAPS AT FAULT
IN TIEN TSIN
Disorder Resulted From Their
Seizure of Two
Americans
By Associated Press.
Poking, Friday. March 14.—While
early reports from Tien Tsin sug
gested that American marines wore
to blame for the recent disorders
there, later reports would seem to
show that the Japanese were also
at fault. ■
It is claimed that Japanese mili
tary guards entered the French con
cession and there seized two Amer
icans. and when American officials
inquired of the Japanese police au
thorities if any Americans were be
ing detained they were given a nega
tive answer, according to a rep art.
Later American officials found two
Americans in a police station, one
of them lying almost naked in the
yard, calling for water. The Japa
nese were induced to send the in
jured man to a hospital and an
American consul refused to leave the
| station until the other man. a cor
i poral. had been released. This de
: mand was finally granted. The
American consul was stoned by Ja
panose as he drove away front the
station, it is said.
When the American marines en
tered the Japanese consulate, they
are reported to have attacked a visi
i tor.
j On Thursday evening American
I marines who were entering a mov
! ing picture theater in the I' rench
1 concession were attacked by a crowd
of Japanese armed with sticks,
j They managed to enter the theater.
• the proprietor of which telephoned
; for the French police, who dispers
| ed the Japanese.
The situation at Tien Tsin is said
! to be tense. The matter has been
referred to the French legation
| here.

Senator Penrose returned last
night to Philadelphia from the sea
; shore where he went for rest nfter
i the strenuous closing hours of Con
j press. He was at his offices in the
I Commercial Trust Building tt>-day
- to confer with the advocates of
i charter revision and others inter-
I csted in legislation. Late to-day
j there will be a conference of the
i Philadelphia legislators in favor of
! the Brady bills for reform in the
i registration laws and changing the

I out of the way before the charter
. revision bills shall be put to a vote
in either chamber. Senator Penrose
1 is expected to go to Harrisburg soon.
I but lie may delay his visit to the
i capital until the charter revision
i bills shall come before the comrnit-
I tee. Prominent residents of Dela-
I ware county interested in the re
vision of the State Constitution have
! arranged for a dinner to be held at
the Arcadia, this city, on March 23.
when the matter of proposed
changes in the constitution will be,

Being a Courteous Man,
He "Minded" Her Baby
New York. Manch 17.—When Dr.
( Carl Beck of Bridgeport. Conn., boarded
a New Haven Railroad train for a
| glimpse of the tall buildings and the
I bright lights, he thought he had left dull
' care behind. But when he alighted at
j the Grand Central Terminal he had
i lost blitheness and buoyancy. He car
ried an infant, registered later on the
i blotter at the Twenty-ninth Precinct
Police Station as "name unknown, ad
dress unknown, nativity unknown, age
about one year." The baby had come
to Dr. Beck as a reward of politeness.
.When a tall, dark foreign looking
woman, about thirty-five years old.
i dressed in black, asked him to "mind the
j baby" while she went into the woman's
wash room, he accepted the trust in a
spirit of kindness, but when she failed
I to return he felt aggrieved.
I At the station he met Patrolman Mur
phy. who guided him to the police sta
tion. Then the child was sent to Belle
vue.

ters for the period from July. 1917,
