President Undisturbed.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2. Some unknown
person hurled a heavy Iron plumb-bob
through a window of one of the cars on
President Roosevelt's special train to
night on the run from Princeton to Wash
ington. The missile, which was thrown
with terrific force, crashed through the
Gothic stained glass transom on a win
dow of the combination car Salvlus, an J
fell at the feet of Major Webb Hayes, a
eon of the late Secretary It. B. Hayes,
who was a guest of the President on the
trip to the Army and Navy football game.
Fragments of broken glass fell on Ma
jor Hayes, who was sitting with his bacic
to the window, reading, but did not in
jure him In any way. Major Hayes
stooped and picked up the Iron missile
which so narrowly had missed his head,
and then re-examined the broken window.
The frame of the window was . broken
where the plumb-bob had struck it, so
great was the force with which It had
been hurled.
The train at that time, about 7:30
o'clock, was running at a comparatively
slow rate. The -weather was heavy and
the dense fog rendered It almost Impos
sible for the engineer to see a train
length ahead of him. Broad street. In
North Philadelphia, had Just been crossed
and the train was in the vicinity of Ox
ford street, when the crash of gla
aroused the occupants of the car. The
car was the first on the train, and it
might have been mistaken very easily
for President Roosevelt's private car.
That, however, was at the rear of the
train.
It was remarked also that Major Hayos,
from a profile view, strongly resembles
tlie President, and that, sitting by the
window, in the position he occupied in
reading, he might have been mistaken
for the' President.
Didn't Throw at President.
Doubt was expressed by officials of the
Pennsylvania who were on the train
whether the missile was intended to be
hurled at the President. They say that
several times recently stones have been
thrown at trains passing through North
Philadelphia, and on one occasion a man
sitting at one of the windows of a car
was severely cut by broken glass, when a
heavy stone crashed through It.
Tho Implement thrown at tne train to
night was a most unusual one to be tn
the hands of a boy who might. In a spirit
of deviltry, throw a stone at a train. It
Is of cast Iron and weighs about three
pounds. Had It struck Major Hayes on
the head, as If certainly -would If It had
passed through Ihe window a foot lower,
he .would have been Injured very serious
ly. If not killed.
The President knew nothing of the inci
dent for some time after It occurred. Ho
made no comment upon It, passing It off
as the wanton act of somo Irresponsible
person. As a measure of precaution, the
curtains at the windows of several of tne
cars were drawn down after the news of
the Incident spread among the passengers
on the train.
Secret Service Will Investigate.
The Secret Service officers, who ac
companied the President, took charge
of the missile, and effort will be made
through the Secret Service Bureau to
apprehend the person who threw it.
A report of the Incident was made
by the train officials to the officials
of the Pennsylvania at Philadelphia.
Assurance was .given that effort would
be made by the railroad to apprehend
the person guilty of the act.
Barring this untoward Incident the
trip of the President from Princeton
1 Washington was not out of the or
t innry. The special train bearing the
President, Mrs. Roosevelt. Secretary
Root. Secretary Taft and Assistant Sec
retary Newberry and their parties, did
not leave Princeton until 6:20 P. M.
The passengers alj were on board the
train at least half an hour before that
time, but tho railroad officers did not
want to take chances of starting the
special train until tho track to Prince
ton Junction was absolutely clear. This
caused a long delay, as tho Jam of
special trains about the station and
yards at Princeton was greater than
ever before known.
The run to Washington was not made
In the best possible time on account
of tho dense fog which prevailed dur
ing a considerable part of the Journey.
The train arrived here at 11:08 o'clock.
The President's carriage was awaiting
him at the station and he and Mrs.
Roosevelt wore driven directly to the
White House.
President Pleased With Game.
The President was Immensely pleased
with tho Army and Navy football
game. He would gjvo no direct ex
pression for publication, but he not
only enjoyed the game as an exhibition
of scientific football, but was gratified
that there was so little of unnecessary
roughness In It
Dr. William T. Rcld. Jr., the head
coach of the Harvard football squad,
was a spectator of today's game at
Princeton. He has made an engage
ment to visit tho President at tho
White House next Monday to discuss
the football situation In the light of
developments of the season Just closed.
The President is anxious to save the
game as an American college sport If
it can be done, but he is convinced that
It will be necessary to modify it so
as to absolutely eliminate unnecessary
danger and to prevent slugging.
Police Kept in tho Dark.
PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 2. Up to a late
hour tonight neither the police nor the
detective department has been notified
that a missile had been thrown through
a car window on the President's special.
If an Investigation of tho occurrence has
begun, it Is being conducted by the Penn
sylvania officials.

SHOULD BE LESS IX 11AXK
General Corbln Tells Why lie De
clined to Be Chief.
WASHINGTON. Dec. Z Explanation of
the reason for the declination of General
Corbln to serve as Chief of Staff of the
Army is contained in a letter -written by
him and handed to Secretary Taft during
his recent visit to the Philippine Islands.
In his letter he says that, while he would
deem it a very great honor and a personal
satisfaction to serve as Chief of Staff, he
suggests that the duties of that office
should be performed by an officer of less
rank than the senior general officer,
whose period of office shall extend at least
to the end of the administration by which
he has been appointed As to himself,
he asks that he be given some command
commensurate with the rank of Lieuten
ant-General, and recommends that the of
fice of Chief be reserved for officers hav
ing had long service.
Secretary Taft thinks that the General
Staff Is doing too much administrative
work, and that the Chief of Staff has be
come an administrative officer. He said
further that the General Staff .should de
vote Its entire time and energies to re
search and to advising the Secretary of
War on military affairs.

DAVIS TO BE DISCIPLINED
BERT DECIDES THE UMPIRE IS
TOO COCKY.
President of Coant Le'ngur Visits Lea
Aagclm and Hears the Outpour
lngH of the Pan.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 2. (Special.)
President Bert is back from Los
Angeles where he went to hear Mor
ley's talc of woe. Morley was very
anxious for him to visit the South and
size up the baseball situation for him
self. After receiving a half dozen tel
egrams from the Angel manager. Pres
ident Bert decided to make -the trip.
He was not sorry yesterday that he
visited Los Angeles, for it gave him a
chance to talk wltti the fnns and
thereby size up the Flood-Davis-Smith
scandal In better shape.
"I was really surprised at the feel
ing toward Davis." said Bert. 'I had no
idea that It was so strong. When I
got there 1 expected Morloys frlonds
to come to me and roast Slats. 1 was
prepared tor that, but I took pains to
talk to people who did not like Morley
and all of them Telt pretty sore toward
the umpire.
"About the first one to roast Davis
to me was Jim Jeffrie's, -who used to
take in every game, but he told me
that he would go out to no more as
long as Davis umpired. I was amused
at the way that JeffrloM Illustrated to
me how the players pulled Davis about.
Ho used mc for the subject, and I
thought he would tear me to pieces.
Jeffries though he was handling me
lightly. I presume, but you know I
am not strong and he certainly did
shake me up. Jeffries Is biggor than
he ever was. He told me he weighed
250 pounds and he looks the part.
"From what I could observe Davis
decisions were not so bad, but It was
the way he conducted himself on and
off the field that made him unpopular.
I learned that he had been boasting In
public places what players he intended
to punish, and this was bad policy. I
aloo learned that when Slats made a
bad decision in a game and the fans
roasted ,hlm, he took his hat off and
made a low salaam like a clown. He
should not have done that.
"In regard to the assault, I found
that the 'details had been correctly
reported and. of course, some of the
Los Angeles fans excused It on the
ground of very great provocation, but
1 could not Tim Flood called on me
and made a long statement. He related
how Davis had persecuted him until he
lost control of his temper completely.
He said there had been a long-standing
feud between them and that fine with
out cause brought it to u head.
"I found the feeling so strong against
Davis, though most everybody com
mended my ruling in the case, that I
won't send him back there very soon.
1 have sent Davis a message to call on
me next vcek and will tell him a fow
things. There is no question but what
.he is a fine umpire, but he must cut
out his talk and use more discretion.

'UNCLE JOE" THE SPEAKER
Noted .Legislator. Outlines Policy In
Strong Speech Session Should
Be Short Wl litems Defines
Policy for Democrats.
WASHINGTON, Dec 2. The Republi
can members of tbe 69th Congress met
in caucus today in the hall of the House
of Representatives and renominated all
of -the elective officers of the House who
served during the last session. William
.of the caucus. The principal feature of
tne evening was tne speecn or josepn u.
Cannon. who was for a second - time
unanimously chosen for Speaker. The
nomination of Mr. Cannon and his speech
of acceptance created hearty enthusiasm
among the Republican members, and his
remarks were generally approved. In ac
cepting the nomination Mr. Cannon said
In part:
"It would be a bold man or party that
would do anything by legislation or threat
thereof that would tend to destroy or
check the progress of the people In the
universal and successful achievement in
all branches of industry in the country.
Clothed with full power it is our duty
to seo to it that by wise appropriation
the vast revenues gathered from a willing
people are applied to the public service
to make the same efficient, avoiding
parismony on the one hand and extrava
gance on the other.
"Since 1S6L when our "party came Into
power, the history of the Republican
party has been substantially the history
of the country. Our population has more
than doubled, and our wealth has been
multiplied by five; 11 states have been ad
mitted to the Union: we have today al
most one-half of the world's railways;
tho product of our labor more than
equals one-third of the product of labor
of all the civilized world; by invention and
enterprise, aided by the use of our great
capital, we have harnessed the forces of
nature and made them our servants until
individual effort today accomplishes for
the benefit of all the people many times
more than it did in the early days of the
Republic Since William McKlnley took
the oath of office in JJS7 the expenditure
and revenues of the postal service have
been nearly multiplied by two. This is
the measure of the industry, production,
business and commerce of our people.
Must Xot Restrain Trade.
The changes in the methods of pro
duction and commerce so salutary ana
beneficial. Involving as they do the ex
traordinary use of combined capital,
emphasizes the necessity for prevent
ing agreement in restraint of trade,
and the regulation of commerce among
the states and with foreign nation.
The congress, within the limits of its
Jurisdiction under the constitution has
heretofore enacted legislation touch
ing these subjects. In the fullness of
time It may be, under the law as It now
is and by the operation of competitive
forces, that matters of differences be
tween the corporations, the carrier and
the people they serve, would be ad
Justed in Justico to alL
The consensus of opinion of the peo
ple, however, is that Congress has the
power by amendment to the law to pro
vide better remedies for real abuses
existing so that the producer and con
sumer can find a more speedy and less
expensive remedy than we now have.
In this opinion. I. for one, concur. The
burden 1 upon Congress, and our party,
having power, is primarily responsible.
Let us go forward. But it is our duty
to see that legislation is wise In the
premises. Just to the corporations, the
carrier and to the people. We cannot
oppress one by foolish or unjust legis
lation without bringing dlstaster upon
all. Wo shall bf especially careful
to not unduly interfere with the opera
tion of the competitive forces, for after
all our very civilization rests upon It;
each Individual living in the sweat of
his face, hustling to promote his own
Interest. W may regulate commerce
among the states and as an incident
thereto, we may regulate the competi
tive force. We dare not destroy them.
"A word in conclusion. Our large ma

to business, will enable us tp do our work
and avoid a long session, jms is cer-

vorably -with that of any party In charge
of any government at any time.
Rate Lav Democratic Idea.
Mr. Williams said that the Democratic
party favored free trade for the Phlllo
plne Islands. It did not believe that
these Wands should be retained by this
Government, but It did believe that they
should have all the benefits accruing
under the American flag" as long- aa that
flag floated over them.
Concerning the predominant question of
railroad-rate legislation, he -declared that
juch regulation was In accord with the
general Democratic principle of special
privileges to none and equal opportunity
to all. He congratulated the country on
the fact that the President and his fol
lowers had accepted this Democratic Idea
and declared that, without the aid of the
President, the Democratic party could do
nothing at this time In the way of rate
legislation, while on the other hand the
President and his follower could do
nothing without the aid of the Democrats.
Mr. Williams then spoke with great
emphasis about the prevalence of graft in
the Government service, which, he said,
had lifted its head In the diplomatic serv
ice in Venezuela. In the public land serv
ice, is the Postofflce and Agricultural De
portments and elsewhere. In these cir
cles graft had become worse than in poli
tics. Graft was the result of corrupt
ideas which must necessarily have a
breeding place somewhere, and Mr. Will
iams declared that the principle of pro
tectionism wax the breeding place
Graft and Its Origin.
"It is not a far cry." declared Mr. 1VHL
la nis. "from the position of the man who
thinks that tho laws should be fixed so as
to put money Into his pockets to the posi
tion of the man who wants city fran
chises fixed so as to put money Into his
pocket, and it is not a far reach from
these to the Insurance director who, act
ing aa a trustee, controls trusts funds so
as to make, money out of them for him
self." Mr. Williams said there were a lot of
temporary Issues to be righted, and that
tho abiding Issue of the tariff will remain
so until it Is settled aright. Ha added
that the only right way to settle it was by
divorcing business from the Government,
as business men seeking legislation were
often a source of political corruption.
Plea for Party Harmoay.
Mr. Williams hen ridiculed the Idea,
that there were any such things aa "con
servative Democrats and "radical Demo
crats." "Democrats are conservative," he
continued, "whenever they come to con
serve things American, equitable, equal
and Just, and they are radical whenever
they come to tearing up by the roots
abuses and tho exploitation of the masses
by the chartered Interests. Democrats
may be both conservative and radical, or
they may be neither. It all depends upon
the particular question to be submitted to
them for their Judgment but they are

never consistently either radical or con
servative all of the time."
Mr. Williams pointed out to the mem
bers of the caucus the folly of giving aid
to the enemies of Democracy by dividing
the Democratic forces Into two parties "by
a mere distinction of words, and in con
clusion enjoined upon the members of the
minority the Importance of effective, con
structive party action. Instead of mere
censorship and criticism, though both of
these were at times of the highest im
portance. A resolution was introduced by Mr.
Lloyd, of Missouri, aimed at securing a
united and eggresslve minority and
strongly supplemented the speech of
Mr. Williams. It was finally accepted
after the elimination of a paragraph that
some members thought might be con
strued as a personal reflection. Its ex
act nature was not made public It Is
believed to have related to railroad rate
legislation. The resolution as adopted,
reads:
That it Is hereafter regarded as the doty
of Democrats wbe may be Milsned to tho
variom committees or tbe House of Repre
sentatives to make, minority reports en all
bltls favorably reported te the Hesse, where,
the majority report Is aot la accord with
Democratic teacfalags. It is farther en
joined that, tho Democ-au of the several
committees shall keep ihe minority leider
Informed of the proKrc of tfee committee
aad of all Mils reported to the House, and
the relation of minority members te said
bills. I: Is srfed upon Democratic members
of committees to be present on the fioor of
the Uecse ready to explain the position of
tbe minority on every Mil that majr be pre
sented to the Uocse for Its consideration,
so as to relieve the minority leader of the
necessity of making Inquiry aheet the bill
that should be fully explained by the Demo
crats en the committee.
Nominees for House Offices.
Tbe routine proceedings of the caucus
were without special incident. R. L. Hen
ry, of Texas, was elected chairman for
this Congress, and Messrs. Powers of Mis
sissippi and Robertson of Louisiana sec
retaries. After Mr. Williams bad been
chosen for speaker, and bad made his

kansas: postmaster, Robert L. Douglas,
of South Carolina; chaplain. Rev. Austin
C Roach, of Alabama.
The minority has always been allowed

employes who served in the last Con
gress for the Democrats were named, as
follows: Isaac F- Hill. Ohio: Joseph J.
