Mrs. Eva W. White of the Elizabeth Peabody House, Boston, opened the discussion of the music settlement school and its relation to general set- tlement work, speaking in_ favor of music in every settlement house re- gardless of ‘the existence of the music settlement schools. “In fifteen years of experience I Mhave found that music has an ability %o create an atmosphere in a settle- ment house that nothing else can achicve,” sald Mrs. White. Music sup- plements so many things that the value of having'music actually in the house rather than in a nearby school is_extremely important. Mrs. Janet D. Schenck of the Neigh- borhood Music School of New York city addressed the meeting. “I mever listen to a concert by children that their music itself doesn’t impress me with its wonderful quality,” she said. “We have no trouble in getting great artists to come to these concerts, to hear the pupils perform individually, even to_train them.” Miss Harriet Rosenthal of the mu- sical guidance bureau suggested that the music school settlsments un= doubtedly were needed for the really talented music students among the poor, but that the social settlement work should certainly have music to offer those who enjoyed music or <could be making it the main thing in their ex- istence. At the boys’ and giris’ clubs session, over which Max Nelson of Union set~ tlem=nt, New York, presided, Misi Sybil Gordon gave a concise state- ment of the organization and purpose of the Girl Scouts, and Henry M.

The bandit leader, however, told me that at 10 o'clock a messen- ger had arrived reporting a move- ment of troops from Lincheng toward Tsaochwang. Commander Wang added: ““If you don't keep_your promises, we won't keep ours. You said troops were withdrawing, and these are train troops coming in.’ “The chieftain suppled a gulde, thus saving much time, but the gulde refused to continue to conduct me after a time.

TIENTSIN, May 14.—Restoration of the authority they formerly enjoyed in the territory they have been raid- ing and not ransom is the principal condition for which the Suchow ban- dits are holding out before they will release their prisoners, according to the latest advices recelved here. J. A. Henley of San Francisco, one of the captives, who arrived at Lin- cheng Saturday, said that during the first few days following the kidnap- ing the prisoners had a hard time, but latterly they have been weli treated. For the first three days the for- elgners were hustled about from place to place, resting in the daytime and making forced marches at night. During these journeys the prisoners were placed at intervals along the long line of their guards to prevent the soldiers firing into the column. Beat Prisoner. Finally, sald Henley, J. B. Powell, American newspaper man of Shang- hai, sank down, exhausted, and re- fused to move. The bandits beat him, but they could not get him to his ‘feet. Then the marauders real- ized that their captives were almost completely played out. They provided the Itallan, Musso, with a sedan chair and ecarried others on their backs from camp to camp. The pres- ent camp, ten miles from Tsaochwang, was reached Thursday. As the treatment they received improved the spirits of the captives rose and their hopes for release were strengthened. Brigands and prisoners began to fraternize. The former passed around candy, which some of the foreigners identified as their property, and followed the example of the latter in using toothbrushes and rubbing eau de cologne on their chins. Before Henley left the robbers’ stronghold he was asked to value some of the loot. A large dlamond ring_belonging to Musso he assessed at $6, while he set 20 cents as the worth of a beautiful pearl. A gold cigarette case he passed over as too trivial to consider. SIXTEEN PRISONERS HELD. By the Asscciated Press. SHANGHAI, May 15.—J. A, Henley of San Francisco, one of the prison- ers captured by the Suchow bandits, who arrived at Linching two daysago from the brigands’ stronghold, was not granted his unconditional release by his captors, but had obtained twenty-four hours “leave of absence” from the robber chief, from whom the American also borrowed $20 and a mule to make his trip, according to Irenoru brought here today. 1of the British-American Tobacco Company staff, who arrived in the midnight express from Tsaochwang, became popular with the bandit, and was. permitted to pass through the lines to visit the relief camps in the foothills, Clad in Pajamas. . The San Franciscan rode down from the brigands’ lair Saturday clad in a pair of pajamas, carrying the $20, and under instructions to return by Sunday night, or the remainder of the captives would be shot. Josset said squads of coolie pack carriers are taking supplies up to the bandits’ headquarters and that all the hostages are well, according- to the last reports when he left Tsaochwang. He added, however, that any hostile movement by the troops would re- sult in the immediate execution of the forelgn prisoners. Officers in com- mand of the troops have reiterated their previous assurances that the soldiers would be withdrawn, but Whether this promise has been kept is not known at Tsaochwang. It now {is pretty definitely estab- lished that fifteen men are being held by the bandits, together with Senora Verea, wife of one of them, who has repeatedly refused to abandon her husband. It also is believed that up- ward af 100 Chinese are held, many of them wealthy and prominent. SOLDIERS ASK ARMS, BY the Associated Pross. HANKOW, China, May 15.—About 1,000 soldiers and ex-b’;flditl fro‘:n Honan, incorporated into an army, are camped seven miles from Hankow, demanding tribute of $160,- 000 and a quantity of ammunition as the piice of their departure.

Reports From New York. Reports from New York state, which was considering a minimum wage law when the Supreme Court decision killed its prospects, were brought by Miss Nelle Schwarz of the New York industrial commission, who said she had been “shocked” to find through surveys in that state that hundreds of girls in northern New York towns and citles were re- celving $7.50 and $8 per week. A common wage in New York city, she reported, was $11 or $12 a week. Life Depends on Salaries. The health and life of American womanhood depend upon the wages, salaries or dividends, whatever her income may be, Miss Mary Anderson, alractor of the women's bureau of the Department of Labor, told the con- ference. Minimum wage laws she de- clared to be “health measures.” ew legislation, based on Justice Sutherland’s suggestion of a law which might make the employer pay for the value of services rendered, was proposed by Dean C. Acheson, at- torney of this city, who said he con- sidered it impracticabls at the pres- ent to attempt any other immediate solution. James Ryan of the National Cath- olic Welfare Council was of the opin- fon that no law could be drafted to suit the purpose and obtain the Su- prems Court approval.

TAKES PEPCD ISSUE NDER ADVISEMENT Chief Justice McCoy to De- cide-Later on Impounding of Excess Charge. Following arguments throughout the day, in connection with the appli- cation of the Public Utilities Commis- sion for the continued impounding by the Potomac Electric Power Company of the difference between the 10-cent rate for electric current, collected from consumers and the rate fixed by the commission, Chief Justice Mc- Coy in the District Supreme Court terday afternoon took it under ad- ement. The company opposed any further impounding of its money but did not ask the court to direct the disposition of the fund of nearly four millions, which kas accumulated since Justice Gould, 1n 1917, enjoined the commission from enforcing its new rate on condition that the company set aside the differ- ence, then 2 cents, to await the final determination of the case involving the valuation of the property of the company on which valuation the new rate was predicated. Stephens Opens Argument. The argument before the chief jus- | tice was opened by Corporation Coun- sel Stephens with a brief outline of the litigation since 1917. The com- mission’s valuation, he stated, had been sustained by Justice Gould after reading the testimony, comprising 6,000 pages, and after a lengthy ar- The Court of Appeals reversed the decision of the lower court, because the commis- sion did not give the company the benefit of the high prices obtaining between 1914 and 1916, when con- sidering reproduction costs. The commission noted an appeal to the United States Supreme Court, which declined to entertain the case, holding that Congress could not im- pose on that tribunal a non-judicial function. The court h:=1d, however, that the local tribunal did have jurisdiction, and thus affirmed the decision of the Court of Appeals, remanding the case for further consideration by the Dis- trict Supreme Court. Mr. Stephens pointed out to the court why, in his opinion, the differ- ence in prices allowed and collected should continue to be impounded. FORMER EDITOR DIES.
