Ilonnparte The ruling of the Attorney General of the United States is not taken seriously by the boy mayor of Glen Echo He said last night that he would take no cognizance of toe decision until the Su- preme Court has heard the cue or he has been informed by Attorney Peter that he is in the wrong and that in The meantime use town marshal or as soon as one is appointee to succeed Marshal Collins resigned will continue to enforce the regulations as lana heretofore been the case There Is no truth in the rumor that Marshal Collins received an inkling of what the decision of Attorney General Bonaparte was to be and on this ac- count handed in his resignation Sunday evening Marshal Collins went to Phila- delphia yesterday morning unaware of the opinion of the Attorney General in the muchdebated right of the mayor his superior of Glen Echo over the automobiles that have been using Con- duit road for years AutoistN Well Pleased The news of the decision of Mr Bona- parte came as a

he offered no evidence at the pre- liminary hearing before Mayor Garrett Counsel for Mr Lutx are making an ef- fort to interest the automobile enthusiasts of Washington in their tesjt case and to set them to stand together until a final decision is eventually given A meeting of the automobile owners will probably be held today or tomorrow Civil suits are also to be Instituted against the mayor as well as Marshal Collins Mayor Garrett Confident Mayor Garrett said last evening that he considered the opinion of the Attorney General practically the same as the brief filed with Judge Morris at

Not until the Supreme Court of theUnited States has handed Sewn finaldecision or be baa been advised to do aoby the States attorney of Maryland wiltMayor Garrett of Glen Echo refund themoney paid in fine for automobile speeding on Conduit road in which AttorneyGeneral Bonaparte holds that the mayorhas no authority to Impose or collectfines

The Attorney General made known hisopinion yesterday given at the request of

War Taft in reference tothe much debated right of the mayor ofGlen Echo to fine automobittate who havebeen speeding at their pleasure over theC Htuk road in deQance of the townsspeed Unit laws His opinion as fe ttjurisdiction over Conduit sogiven The decision holds that all finesimposed on the automoMUsts are invalidand that persons who have paid fo theirmoney to the officials are entitled to therecovery of the amounts

Garrett Ignores IlonnparteThe ruling of the Attorney General of

the United States is not taken seriouslyby the boy mayor of Glen Echo Hesaid last night that he would take nocognizance of toe decision until the Su-preme Court has heard the cue or hehas been informed by Attorney Peterthat he is in the wrong and that in Themeantime use town marshal or as soonas one is appointee to succeed MarshalCollins resigned will continue to enforcethe regulations as lana heretofore beenthe case

There Is no truth in the rumor thatMarshal Collins received an inkling ofwhat the decision of Attorney GeneralBonaparte was to be and on this ac-count handed in his resignation Sundayevening Marshal Collins went to Phila-delphia yesterday morning unaware ofthe opinion of the Attorney General inthe muchdebated right of the mayorhis superior of Glen Echo over theautomobiles that have been using Con-duit road for years

AutoistN Well PleasedThe news of the decision of Mr Bona-

parte came as a pleasant surprise to theautomobilists of Washington The mem-bers of the Automobile dub were par-ticularly elated and a meeting will prob-ably be held within a few days for thepurpose of deciding just what actionshould be taken In the cue and at thesame time to show their jollification ofthe decision which was altogether to theirinterests

Since Mayor Garrett began imposinglines on violators of the towns speed reg-ulations a baa been collected rhiamount together with all otber fines forall offenses of different character col-lected by Mr Garrett are in the countybank where they were placed from time

as the money was paid inThe appeal of John A Lutz arrested

and fined last week and whose caae wasappealed to the Circuit Court at Rockyule to test the validity of the fine is tobe heard during the fall A test case Isto be made of this particular hearing andit will probably be carried bdfore JudgeHenderson of the Court of Appeals andoaetbly attorneys for the plaintiff saidlast Right the case would ba taken tothe Supreme Court of the United States

Mr Lutz in by G L Bakerand Charles A Douglas Lutz was fined50 at the time and although he had wit-

nesses he offered no evidence at the pre-liminary hearing before Mayor GarrettCounsel for Mr Lutx are making an ef-fort to interest the automobile enthusiastsof Washington in their tesjt case andto set them to stand together until afinal decision is eventually given Ameeting of the automobile owners willprobably be held today or tomorrowCivil suits are also to be Institutedagainst the mayor as well as MarshalCollins

Mayor Garrett ConfidentMayor Garrett said last evening that he

considered the opinion of the AttorneyGeneral practically the same as the brieffiled with Judge Morris at Baltimoresome tim ago when a case was takenbefore him for a derision as to themayors authority Mayor Garrett

at that tIne and the case waseventually thrown out of court

Former Naval Minister of NIpponArrives In New York and LeadsDramatic Demonstration for PeaceFraternizes with Reporters andTells Them That JJpon Their PensDepends Outcome of Situation

Spaefcl ts The WashlngtM RetoldYork July II Admiral the Baron

Gonkay Yamanoto Japans minister ofmarine during her war with Russia beHoves that If war between his countryand the United States results from thepresent Jingo campaign in both lands itwill be the fault of sensational newspa-pers on both sides of the controversy-

In conservation with newspaper men onthe Cunard steamship Carmania on whichhe arrived hi New York today the vet-

eran naval officer saidAmerica is a country which has long

had friendly relations with Japan Thotreaty between the two countries wassigned about the time that I was bornThis old feeling cannot be broken by apassing storm But it depends upon yourpens gentlemen

Then with pause Admiral Yamamotosaid with great deliberation nod earnestneBS

I want to Impress on the editors ofnewspapers that they cannot be too care-ful with what they writ about twocountries I want to impress on themthat they must understand the conditionsof the two countries thoroughly beforethey write

Do Not Understand ConditionsThere are many sensational newspa-

pers in both America and Japan and itis pity that they do not understandconditions before they attempt to write

I want to impress this thoroughlyrepeated the admiral that they mustunderstand conditions in the two coun-tries I want to express the hope thatthe editors of the papers will be verycareful about reporting correctly whatone says Very often things are cxag-

Derated or misquoted sometimes parposely by representatives of the press

Th friendly relations between the twoooutttitktB are of such long standing thatI think this passing storm should bethrown ito the waters of the PaolficOcean

Tearnwt think that thfer 2ae pulingincident san in any TOQT o mg bctwtenthe long standing friendly rotations be-

tween the two countriesTho first thing Yamamoto said as he

shook hands with the reporter whomet him by appointment in the smokingroom of the ship was

Gentlemen I wish you all would doyour best for peace We want peace

A photographer asked him to poseYes said the admiral with a look

of great earnestness but only onone condition And that is thatan promise to do your best for peace

Shout Aloud Pence0Then by eleven of his coun-

trymen Including five of Ids suite hestood in front 0 the camera As theshutters dropped the admiral and oneother Japanese shouted at the top oftheir voices Peacel

And when the excite occasioned bythis singularly dramatic demonstrationhad subsided the Japanese sailor andstatesman with earnestness and

which indicated that he attached theutmost Importance to his words issued histimely warning to the Jingo newspapers

What do you think of the plan to senda fleet of American warships to the Pacine he was asked

I myself have no bad feeling towardthis country said the admiral slowly asthe interpreter translated his words intoEnglish As for the question you askme he continued it is entirely one forthis country It is not for to expressmy feelings

Admiral Evans Vlniti HimSoon after getting ashore Admiral Ya

mamoto met Admiral Evans who willcommand the big fleet which is to goaround the Horn to the Pacific Ocean andtho two officers talked very frankly aboutthe attempts on both sides of the Pacificto stir up hostilities between the twocountries Both said for publication thatthere was no occasion whatever for warnor for talk of war

Admiral Yamamoto and his staffof the suite of Prince

during the latters stay in Englandadmiral is a short elderly man with

Just turning gray He declined toseo any one at Quarantine as he had a-mass of dispatches to go over But his

Capt Kato talked whilethe ship was on her way to her dock

It Is reported in Tokyo Admiral YamamOto was told that on your returnCount Okuma will place you at the headof the Progressive party with a view tooverthrowing the present ministry

Thereupon the admiral laughed loudlyand replied

I have already occupied cabinet posi-tions In my country and I am tired of ItMy place Is now with my sword byside PqlltJcs or political parties no long-er interest me

The object of all this solicitude looksrather sad when she tells you all aboutit She has the gentle ingenuous mantorof the typical Southern childwoman

grows up and an equally ingenuousseircoiupUtcency which is almost amusrag so simple lid unsubtle is it

She is slender lithe and girlish in figand her face is a delicately tinted

too thin and teeth like those which gleambetwaen t4 painted Ifpe of a French dollHer are wide grayblue black
