seven pirls and one hoy were killed and

Fifty sustained slight injuries, which
did not make necessary their removal
to hospitals.
The accident occurred in Clifton avenue.
where the tracks of the North Jersey
Street Railway Company and of
the Delaware, Raeknwnnna and West0
inn Railroad cross at rijrlit nnrrlos. An
express train was flying past the street

Quick as was the tvork of rescue, it
and hardly begun before stens were
taken to place tlie blame for the aeoiIrr.t.
The conductor of the trolley car
was arrested and placed under $2000
bail on a charge of manslaughter. The
police, the County Physician and the
founty Prosecutor started three sen.arito
investigations. Orders wore sent

and were probably fatally Injured.
Kve-v public oflleial in Newark lias
Condemned the crossing where the accident
occurred as the worst kind of a
flvnth trap. It was said for years efforts
have horn made to have t'oe
crossing changed, and it has been repeatedly
urged that the chief danger
was to children goiug and coming
front the High School. In his ju.nual
message, made public last month. Mayor
Doremus called the crossing a
"death tran." and said it was "dangerous
to children on their way to school."
Newark was thrown into dcen antl unlrersnl
mourning by the accident, and
ret no one said it was unexpected.

Policeman Rtueky knew that his
daughter Ednn was one of the passengers

Suit 1 or Ounuijjc* For tl?o Annulmi-iit

rt - -
v/uracus, v eneeueia.?'.tiie .supremo
Court lias rendered its decision in tiie
suit brought by the boil's of Henry
Itudloff, an American citizeu, against
the Venezuelan Government l'or damages
for the annulment of a concession
given in ISHU to build a market in
Caracas. Judgment was given in favor
of ItudlofCs heirs, admitting their
claim for the large amount of STOU.OtK)
to lie paid by the Venezuelan Government.
The United States Legation watched
the case very closely. Secretary Russell
and Naval Attache Johnston attended
the sessions of the court and
followed the arguments.
Tiie decision is interesting. Inasmuch
as the German and llritisli Legations
have maintained that justice for foreigners
does not exist in Venezuela.
Washington, 1). C.?The RndlofT
! claim was one of the largest brought
| by American citizens against the Venezuela
n Government", and had it not
been settled would have come up ''or
adjudication before the mixed commission
provided'for in the protocol
just signed here by Secretary Ila.v and
Mr. ltowen. The decision is a source
of intense satisfaction to the othcials
here.
The contract price of the proposed
market was $700,000. The claim was
for a like amount, and the judgment
of the courc shows that it was granted
In full.
Considerable work had been done by
the American concessionaires toward
the construction of the proposed market
when a chancre of administration
occurred in Venezuela. Then the concession
to liudloff was annulled hecause
of the objection of the Government
to having such an establishment
controlled hy foreigners. Probably not
more than half the amount of the claim
allowed had been expended when the
work on the market was stopped by
the Government's action..

OUSTED A CRIMINOLOGIST
Head of National Education Bureau
Objected to Scientist's Flans.
I)r. ."T:trI)oiia!(l YVuntcil to Experiment on
fcclioat Children itnd 1'roOnitor
Llarrlx IUinoTPil llitn.
Washington, I). C.?Professor W. T.
Harris, the lioad of the Uuited States
Bureau of Education, has a peculiar
controversy on liis hands. It lias grown
out of his action In removing from the
bureau Dr. Arthur MacDonald, who
has for many years been conducting
sonic unique inquiries Into the statistics
of criminology.
In a laboratory in the Deportment of
Education Building, equipped with all
maimer of instruments for the study
of psychology. Dr. MacDonald has
mad,? a large number of special invesations,
which have been published
in reports from time to time. Of '.ate
it lias been his aim to apply some of
the principles which have seemed to
result front his inquiries to the examination
of pupils in public schools. To
this course there has been violent objection.
Dr. Harris, discussing the matter,
admitted that the reason for dropping
the criminologist from the Department
of Education was a difference of opinion
between himself and Dr. MacDonn'd.
He said he bad recommended
that tiie study of education as a preventive
of crime and pauperism he
dropped front his bureau. He gave as
a reason for his action that, if a eer,
tain child should become known as possessing
bodily signs of degeneracy. It
would create a suspicion against that
child atnl work injustice to it.
' Common humanity." continued Dr.
Harris, "makes a child born of criminals
and possessing sitms of jIotni?vi.-t*
an object of tender euro and camr.ilsoration.
That a child who is so un'o"tunnte
as to inherit a hiirh palate or
protruding cars or a distorted form
should he singled out and labeled as a
criminal bt fore he lias done the first
criminal act is in the opinion of most
people a fiendish method of treatlug
the unfortunate. It would not he tolerated
in any civilized comtnunity.
"After tlie child lias made himself
I Icr.own as a criminal liy overt acts all
j a nv? that he may be separated front
j the rest of the community and that lie
! may he placed in a reform school,
j "For n teacher to take an inventory
| c.f bodily peculiarities relating to the
form and size of the skull, the position
and shape of the ears, the height of the
' cavity of tli? palate within the mouth,
is a piece of impertinence that would
not lie tolerated in any community.
"f need not say that it is entirely
contrary to the spirit of our criminal
law to preiudiro and condemn a human
Imhig for the shone that lie has Inherited
and not for the deed which he personally
commits."
TEN KILLED >N HOTEL FIRE.

to Jump from Windows.
Cedar Itapids, Iowa. ? Six bodies
were taken from the ruins of
the Clifton Hotel, in this city, which
was destroyed by fire. Four more remained
to he discovered. Two of tIt^
bodies have been identified as those of
\V. A. Mowry and E. <!. Young, fore- ,
man for the Western Union Telegraph
Company in Davenport. The other
bodies are so charred as to make identification
practically impossible.
Throe or four injured persons are in I
a serious condition. About forty in '
nil were hurt, most of them by jumpins
from windows.
The blaze started at 2.30 o'clock a.
m. The hotel, a three-story brick
veneer structure. Is said to have been
a veritable tiro trap. The flames started
In a pile of rubbish in the basement,
presumably ignited by defective electric
light wires.
Escape by the stairway soon was
cut off and there followed a stampede
for the windows, the only means of
exit left. The street below tvas filled
with a crowd scarcely less frantic
than the desperate people In the fast
burning building.
Nearly every oiro In tlie hotel lingered
to the last moment, urged by the people
to wait, in the hope of assistance.
Then n cry would tell that the fire had
reached some one. or the smoke bad
made 1t Impossible to breathe, and one
after another the victims jumped to
the street. In a short space of time
the street, was filled with men and
women bruised, battered. broken
limbed and half crazed. All were in
their night garments.

o make s ue that no conspirators
urkod therein, King Eilward, who
vas accompanied l>y the (Jueeu, the
oynl household and all the otlicers of
date, entered the House of Lords, and
ust as his aiu-slors have done for
tenlurics, opened Paviiauicut Willi the
usiomnry speech from tho Throne.
1'his ceremonial was followed by a
lisetis-sion of the King's speech lu both
louses.
The >-pcech was long and dull, being
hlclly a review of oveius of the past
ear. Its salient points were as lolows:
"The blockade of the Venezuelan
ior.s has 1? d to i. giii.uions for the
idJuMiueul of ail the matters in disU'.ie.
1 rejoice tli.-.i a settlement nas
low been arrived a. which has justiied
the blockiding powers in bringng

"Negotiations have taken place for

"The condition of the European provn<es
of Turkey gives cause for serious
mxiety. 1 have used my best efforts
o impress oil the Sultan and his Minsters
the urgent need of practical,
roll-considered measures of reform."
Tho King intimated that the budget
Miniates of the expenditure would
Heritably lie large, and promised the
ntroduction of bills dealing with tbo
rish land question, London education,
ugr.r bounties and the London docks.
In regard to the Irish measure lie
ahl:
"It will, I trust, complete the series
if measures which have already done
nuch to substitute single ownership
or the costly and unsatisfactory comliiotis
still attaching to the tenure of
grleuluirnl land over a largo portion
if Ireland."
lis the iliscnsc'nn of the sneeoh in

eader, sir Ilenry Cnnwliell-Baniiernan,
said lie desired information on

Germany was strong, but
