Beverldge notified the Republican leaders today that under no circumstances would lie be bound to vote ajrainat Blackburn' a amendment to Porakr'B Brownavllla resolution, dlsclaimlnff any Intention, to deny tho President's right to discharge the troops. The notification was given immediately after the Senator reached the Capitol from tho "White Mouse. After the Senate met, Beverldge con ferred with Warner of Missouri, who an nounced himself In hearty accord with the Indiana Senator's view. From that time on conferences were frequent on the Republican aide of the chamber. FTom the first the leaders have, felt the necessity of securing unanimous action. and there la aome disturbance over tho prospective break In their ranks.

He announced his opinion that a vote will be reached on Monday and that the Blackburn provision will be tabled by a practically unanimous Republican vote. fUaokburn meanwhile said he was 'stand inar pat." He declined to with draw hint amendment, because he believed the President was entitled to this declar ation of faith and right He' declared that tho amendment Is an abstract dec laration entirely disconnected with the Brownsville affair.

WHERE NO LOVE IS LOST roiUKEK SNAPS WHENEVER HE MEETS ROOSEVELT, J neident at t Wlitte House Friend's Warning to "I'nele Joc"-iBryce Coming Among Friendd. 0UDG0NIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash- inaton. Jan IS. Senator Foraker loves President Roosevelt Just about as much as the devil loves holy "water. The Ohio Senator's fight on the negro troop ques- tlon Is waged partly because of the poli tics there Is In it and partly because Foraker loves a "scrap" and prefers to "scrap" with Roosevelt. A year ago, -while Senator Dick was out of the city, a delegation of Ohio people came to Washington and wanted to meet the President. It was up to Foraker to pre sent them; so he did. As he walked into the White House the President shook hands as if they were tile most intimate friends, and remarked: "Senator, it has been a long time since you have been to see me." "Yes." snapped foraker. "and It's apt to be another Ions; time before I see you again." Forater's feeling toward the President in well known in Washing-ton, as shown by a remark dropped by Senator Culber son in his speech on the Brownsville affair. "I do not care for the President" he said. "My relations with him are about as cordial as those of the Senator from Ohio, Mr. Foraker." A friend of Speaker Cannon's who ex pects to seo Uncle Joe promoted to the White House noted the manner in which Foraker was bidding: for the colored vote and hastened to write the Speaker a note of caution. This is what he sent: "Itr Uncle Joe : Old Fire Alarm Foraker will steal all the nigger delegates if you don't watoh out." James Bryce. the new British Ambas sador tothe United Stfttes, will be among congenial friends in Washington. Some 12 or 15 years ago, while collecting data for a historical work on the United States, Bryce met and became well ac quainted with Theodore Roosevelt and with Henry Cabot Lodfre. both of them recognized historians. They showed him many courtesies and gave htm much valuable data, for all of which he was duly grateful. Bryce now comes to Washington to And Roosevelt in the White House and Mr." Lodge his closest friend In the Senate. Aside from these two. Bryce will find an old friend - in Karon Speck von Sternberg;, the German Ambassador.

PROBLEM 0FBAD BOYS Indifference of Good Citizens to tlie Subject. Brockton (Mass.) Times. , One of the strange things In modern communities Is the indifference of good citizens on the children who go astray. It is easy to understand why they should take no interest in the adult offender. though that is not Justifiable, but the relation of the public to the Juvenile of fender is a very different tiling. Great progress has been made latterly in this matter. The state has taken a new at titude and Is dealing with the Juvenile offender with a view to correcting his defects, and preventing the development of wrong 'inclination and propensities. But the -work cannot be done by court of ficials alone. Their efforts must be sup plemented by those of men and women who will give time and thought to the boyg and cirls who have pone wrong. If they are nesrlected they will become per manent criminals a perpetual .burden to the community. Tlie method vMcn has teen tried with great success elsewhere is to have a Kroui of men and women formed who will give them personal attention to court children, so that every such child shall hav.ft a personal friend who will do all that can be done for him. Sometimes the great need Is the improvement of the home, and the friendly visitor may ac- compiish that, ' Sometimes the , hoy's associates are bad, and must be broken up. Sometimes be Is bad because nobody ever made an appeal to his better na ture, or stimulated his ambition for any thing decent. Bad reading may have demoralized him, and he must be won to better reading. There Is always some cause for it when a boy is bad. It may be an internal or an external one. Some times It can be seen at a glance. More frequently it must be sought for very carefully, by , some one who cares enough for the boy to give the necessary time to the task, and when the cause is found, has the prood sense to discover and apply the remedyy The authorities are doing their part of the work well. Private citizens should co-operate and do their part to solve this problem. CANADA'S SHIPMENT Parliament Cheers cs That Pro visions Go to Kingston. OTTAWA, Ont., Jan. 18.

Btssell Will Appear To- nijht and Tell of Work In In- x dia Yesterday's Sessions. B. C. Millikin led the devotional ses sion yesterday morning at the Inter national Missionary 1 nstitute at the Kirst Presbyterian Church, after which the delegates held Conference In two sections. Misa Ethel D. Hubbard of the A. B. C. r. M. Young People's Department, and Miss Ella D. MacLaurin represent ing the American Baptist Missionary Union, led the meeting on junior work, and Rev. E. I. Soper, secretary of the Young People's Missionary Movement, on senior and intermediate work, the suhject being "The Missionary Com mittee in the Young People's Society." At the 10:30 session Mr. Millikin spoke for a half hour on "The Object and Method of Mission Study." . The conference then separated into three study classes as follows: Class on "Home Missions," led by Rev. hZ. E. cwvers, D.u taking Ion its textbook, "Aliens or Americans." Class on "For- eiirn JAIsslonR." led by Miss Hubbard, ' t 1 1 1 k for its textbook. "The Christian Conquest.of India." Class on "Method," led by Mr. Millikin. took up the best ways of conducting mission study classes. Miss MacLaurin delivered an inspira- tlonal address at 11:30. She declared that a person with a very little ability, by putting forth effort, ean accomplish a great deal. Rev. e. v. Soper spoke at the 2 O'clock session on "How to Make Young People'a Missionary MeetingB Success ful.' Hg broufrht out that while the church may have a pastor who preaches good missionary sermons at frequent intervals, they still need the missionary meetings conducted by themselves. Me said that the appeal of a young person to young people ac complishes much more than the sermon of the preacher. He satd. too. that the lareest Ifood comes to those who take part In the meetings. In regard to getting Information about missions for the meetings the del egates present were told to apply to the headquarters of the home and for eign boards. It was also suggested that charts, pictures and curios hold the attention of those present at a mis sionary meeting: as nothing else will, but that too many of these should not be brought forward at once. Dr. E. E. Chivers delivered the prin cipal address at the evening- services. He pointed to the fact that the Sunday School was one of the pillars of the church, and that missionary effort was of the cardinal principles of Christian ity. Dr. Chivers' sermon was enlivened by little anecdotes, 'and he gave exam ples of cases where Christian men over came great difficulties to preach the word of God. Preceding Dr. Chivers' sermon. Rev. E. I. SopeR. declared himself in1 favor of graded Sunday Schools, and said that it would be but a short time till missiona ry work was added to the regular Sun day Bcliool curiculum. It has been necessary to make some changes in the programme of the meet ings today, owing to the fact that Rev. 1 1 . G. Bidsell of India could not be present to deliver his address at ' the meeting of the conference last Thurs day night. He will speak tonight1 on "India." Me will also deliver an .In spirational address at the morning ses- sion, beginning at 11:30. Cloakmakers Out on Strike. NEW YORK, Jan. 18.

Harper's Weekly. For some time past extensive experi ments have been conducted in Europe, and more especially in France, in an en deavor to ascertain the most practical and - economical method of preventing dust being raised from streets and road ways. Three processes have been given exhaustive trials oiling, watering with deliquescent salts, and tarring. The most successful of all the experiments were those made with coal tar, the cost of this application In France amounting to about 2.5 to 3 cents per square yard, but this cost is reduced to a mtch smaller figure when it is considered that the application saves wear on the roadbed amounting to at least 2 cents per square yard per an num.

James Roscoe Ray. chancellor of Syracuse University, in an address tonight attacked the argu ments in favor of the poor and chari table movements which had been ad vanced a few moments before by J. C. Phelps Stokes and Rose Pastor Stokes, his wife. "What is all this cry that is being made about the poor wage earner?" asked Dr. Day. 'The wage-earners get enough for what they do, and a great many of them R-et more. I know the poor.. I lived among them and studied them. I know that they are the chief support of upwards of 10.000 saloons In this city. I know that they are the chief causes of Intemperance and shlftlesenees and the blame is put on the hard-harted corporations. We should cease some of the philanthropy which we practice and. help the poor to learn their duty and make them help themselves. "I believe that there is not a greater piece of despotism that rules than that by labor unions. It is a hindrance in itself to the advancement of men." The various addresses were given at the annual dinner of the Syracuse Alumni Association. HOfiSE VERSUS AUTO CAR Latter Has Over S3 Per Cent Mar. gin of Econom y . H. B. Haines In Review of Reviews. ' Leave the man who buys the $10,000 or 512.000 automobile out of the question, for the Item of cost does not figure with him, and take the typical American car costing from to 14505. The machine would probably be pur chased by & man of comfortable income, who, if he lived in the city, would not own "a team of horses, but If his home was in the country would have a stable. The first-class American car seats from five to seven people. Tt has an engine of from 22 to 40 horsepower, and is cap able of a speed varying from 5 to 45 miles an hour. The average depreciation of an American car seems to be about 60 per cent in two years. The car that costs about S2600 is by far the most popular, and I shall take that as a basis. Gasoline will cost, say, 20 cents a. gallon and will give lO miles to each gallon. This would make our gas- oline cost us J120, Three hundred dollars additional must be added for tires. This sum may be too hlKh or far too low. de pending on luck and manaaement. A. man with a car of this type would prob- aolp Jteep a chauffeur, pay him 12.' a week. who would make most of the adjustments " and repairs on " the car. The yearly expense would figure about as follows; Depreciation on car . $ ASO Tlren . . .. 300 Gawlln - 120 Oils, carbide and other supplies........

But in order to get to a really satisfactory comparison, we must examine the utility of the two. and the amount of ground each can cover. A team of horses averaging; 20 miles a day would be doing1 phenomenal work. This would rive them a mileage annually of 7300 miles. The range of an automobile would be GO miles a day, or Z1.900 miles a, season, presuming that both were driven every day. This la three times the work of the horses, at about double the cost, still leaving the automobile a, 33 1-3 per cent margin of economy. Next let us consider the man in more eoiISO l GOING!!
