all that could be desired, being bright and
"warm, with a pleasant breeze stirring.

As President Roosevelt left the elevator
na started ror his carriage. Tie noticed
cripple of the SDanish War. a dnipmtn
to
the reunion of Spanish War Veterans, sit
ting near the elevator entrance. Walk
ing briskly over to his seat, the President
Bhook his hands and Inquired after his
health. The man was M. M. Mitchell, of
Washington, who served in the Fourth
New Jersey Regiment.
The Chief Executive occupied a carriage
belonging to the police department on his
afternoon drive. Captain Guyman in po
lice uniform, had the reins, and 'as tho
President stepped in ho remarked laugh
ingly: "Captain, this looks as though you
Kero going to lock me up." Washington
Wenue was crowded with people, and the
Mr rang with cheers as tho horses started
IP the avenue at a sharp trot.
The President's party drove out Wood
rard avenue four miles to the boulevard
which encircles the city. This was fol
lowed to its intersection with Jefferson
avenue at the approach to the Belle. Isle
bridge. The intention had been to drive
back by way of Jefferson avenue, but
here tho crowds on watch for the Presi
dent's coming were so great as serious
ly to Impede the progress of tho party,
and the carriages were turned into more
secluded streets.
Two little girls had a narrow escape
from being trampled upon by the horses
attached to the President's carriage. They
had darted out suddenly from the curb
almost under the horses' feet. Captain
Guyman was compelled to throw the ani
mals back on their haunches to keep
them off the children. The occupants of
the President's carriage were brought to
their feet In trembling anticipation of a
tragedy, and It was only by a hair's
breadth that the little ones escaped.
Then it was that the route was
changed to less congested streets. Presi
dent Roosevelt had suggested a change
as soon as be saw the crowded condition
of Jefferson avenue, and the party had
proceeded only about two blocks when
the narrow escape of the two little girls
proved that his fears were well grounded.
Mayor Maybury and Secretary Cortelyou
rode with . the President, and a Secret
Service man sat on the box with Police
Captain Guyman. In the second carriage
were Police Commissioner Bowie, George
M. Gaston, of the committee of the Span
ish War Veterans, and three others. The
third and last carriage contained Con
gressman John B. Corliss, of Detroit; the
President's physician, Dr. Lung, and Sec

MEAT- TRUST PREPARING
PACKING-nOUSE COMBINE SAID TO
HAVE BEEN ARRANGED.
Illg Concern Already Absorbed
Stockyards Next to Come Into a
Large Combination.
OMAHA, Sept. 21. What are presumed
to be preparations for the merging of
packing-houses Interests will begin at the
South Omaha Packing-House tomorrow
in the way of taking inventories of stock
and other properties. One of the largest
companies paid its men In advance last
week, and has sent out a circular in
structing agents to settle claims and take
Inventories during the coming week. The
same work Is under way In one of tho
other large houses, while It was com
pleted In a third during the past week.
A party of men said to bo representatives

yards. MEAT TRUST GATHERING.
Largest of the Padting-Honses Ab
sorbed Stockyards Next.
Recent advices from Boston say that
whllo official Information is lacking, there
Is now no question but that tho Schwarzs
chlld & Sulzberger Co. has been absorbed
by the meat packing combination.
Mr. Sulzberger, who represents $3,800,000
of the 54.SSO.000 capital stock of the
Schwarzfichild & Sulzberger Co., asked
$400 per sharo cash for his company, but
it Is understood that the persuasiveness
of Gustavus Swift resulted In a sale of the
"S. & S." for securities, rather than cash.
The purchase is understood to have been
upon the same basis as that upon which
tho Cudahy business was acquired, name
ly, securities to issue to the extent of 25
times tho net earnings of last year. This
made the purchase price of the Cudahy
Company $21,000,000. based upon $S00,C00 of
net earnings last year. This same basis
would mako tho purchase price of the
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger Co. about
?25,000,000 In securities, as tho "S. & S."
did a net business of $1,053,000 last year.
This figures out a price of JGOO per share
in new securities for tho present 43,800
shares of "S. & S." stock.
As the Swift Interests in Chicago re
cently picked up In Boston 3000 shares of
"S. & S." stock at ?10 per share, there
must be less than 2000 shares of the stock
now in tho hinds of the general public,
as President Sulzberger and Mr. Sam
uel Weil, of New York, own 3S.O00 shares
of the stock.
Stockyards Conic Next.
It is understood that after the packing
house consolidation has been completed,
tho same Interests will form a separate
organization to control the stockyards of
the country in the Interest of the packers'
combination.
The packing-house Interests aro today
in conti-ol of all the stockyurds of tho
country with the exception of Chicago
and Kansas City.
Kansas City stockynrds stock has re
cently rallied to 100. It Is believed that
rather than engage in a -protracted war
fare with the packing-house combination
the controlling interests in the Kansas
City yards would be willing to place the
Kansas City company in the stockyards
combination at about $100 per share,
which, it Is said, the Swifts consider an
equitable price for the property.
It Is understood that Chicago stock
yards people place a ..value of $40,000,000
upon their property, which figures out a
price of 150 for tho C per cent preferred
and 250 for the common stock of the Chi
cago Union Junction Railways & Union
Stockyards Company, figuring par for tho
$14,000,000 bonds outstanding.
While the packing-house Interests rec
ognize the valuable property holdings of
tho Chicago company, they do not coin
cide with these figures as an equitable
price for tho absorption of the Chicago
company.
The stock of tho Omaha Stockyards
Company Is expected to go Into the com
bination at about 110, but a large ma
jority of this company's stock is owned
by the packers, and this fact may have
an influence In determining relative val
ues. Omaha stock is now quoted at 105i
bid, 10S asked.
CONTINUED FIR3INESS IN LONDON.
Good "Will of European Banks "Will
Help New York.
LONDON, Sept. 21. The high rates at
New York and large purchases of gold
for America have caused a continued
firmness In the money market, but appre
hensions are acute of a scarcity of gold
on account of the predicted abnormal
shipments to New York. These, however,
are believed to have little foundation. It
is realized hero that, even if Secretary
Shaw's plan for the Issuance of tempor
ary National bank notes Is not acted
upon, the goodwill of the banks of Eng
land, France and Germany will enable
New York to obtain sufficient gold to
carry over the y present American strin
gency without especially Inconveniencing
Europe. The Bank of France has an ex
traordinary accumulation of unemployed
money to spare, and the fact that the
Bank of England's rate of discount re
malnsrat 3 per cent shows that mcney
has not become particularly scarce.
The recovery in New York exchange
rates Is regarded tare as merely manlp-
ulatlon for the purpose of preventing ad
vances In London bank rate. Some $1.
750,000, Which was available Jh the open
market the middle of last week, has dis
appeared and its understood to have been
bought for the New York market There
are many evidences of a desire to obtain
gold without disturbing the London
market.
DUIjIj GBRMAX BOURSE.
Sagar prospect Uncertain Because
of Unfavorable Weather.
BERLIN, Sept. 2L The bourse here
had a dull week. Quotations in nearly
all departments declined until yesterday,
when reports of Friday In New York
caused a sharp reaction. .Early In the
week there was considerable short selling,
but ystcrday the shorts were hurried to
cover. As the settlement approaches It
Is seen that engagements aro larger than
for a long time past, but the settlement
Is expected to pass easily In spite of
dearer money, which Is regarded as only
temporary. Bank stocks yesterday
shared the general riae on decided action
by the bankers' congress at Frankfort
against the bourse law. It Is hoped
thie action of the congress will lead to
an Improvement In tho position of
tho banks.
German Government loans declined
more and more and there were more
heavy sales of imperial 3 per cents and
Prussian consols for several days. Most
foreign securities partook of the general
weakness of the market, but Turks partly
recovered their losses. Iron shares were
depressed until yesterday because of a re
duction. In the price of pig-iron and most
unfavorable annual reports from several
Iron companies, but a partial recovery
was afforded yesterday.
General Industrials were mostly lower
during tho week, but sugar shares were
higher on a rise in tho price of raw
sugar, through American purchases and
uncertain crop prospects. Tho weather
Is remaining cool and wet at tho very
time when warm sunshine Is necessary to
produce saccharine.
Germans "Want More Meat.
MUNICH, Sept. 21. Tho German Social
ist Congress which opened here September
15, adopted resolutions providing for the
inauguration of meetings throughout
Germany to protest against the price of
meat, and to authorize the Deputies to
Interpellate the government regarding tho
scarcity of meat, and the boycott against
foreign meat.
"Will Tolerate Boric Acid.
BERLIN, Sept. 21 The society for the
protection of tho Interests of tho German
chemical industry. In session at Frank
fort, has unanimously passed a resolu
tion against the prohibition of the use of
boric acid for the preservation of meats,
and has appealed to the Bundesrath to
reverse its decision in this connection in
view of the present scarcity and dcar
nees of meat.
SHAW ON SUBTREASURIES
Intlmatcs That He May Recommend
Their Abolition.
CHICAGO. Sept. 21. Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw was interviewed tonight
in regard o a report that the abolition
of the Subtrcasurles has been under con
sideration. "The Secretary of tho Treasury is the
only Cabinet ofllcer who reports directly
to Congress," said Mr. Shaw. "I am cm
powered to make whatever recommenda
tions I may deem advisable, and my forth
coming report may contain certain recom
mendations which I deem necessary for
the public welfare. Should I say what
those recommendations would be, Con
gress might decline to adopt them.
"Tho abolition of the Subtreasurics,"
continued tho Secretary, "would release
$S3,000.000 at "the present time. The remain
der of the $218,774,500 in the Treasuries at
the last report is in circulation now. Wo
have sought to deposit the money as rap
Idly as possible and avoid -contraction of
the market."
"What is to be done before Congress
convenes?"
"I do not know that anything will be
done."
"By tho anticipation of the October in
terest you Tiave acknowledged the neces
sity for some action, and the high rate of
interest prevailing in New York Is the rea
son, is it not?"
"Well, we have put considerable money
in circulation through the banks, and I do
not anticipate any danger. The payment
of the October interest, of course, brought
some relief. There Is no occasion for anx
iety. What Congress will do when It
meets to relieve a contingency that Is con
stantly recurring is something that I can
not foretell."

SMALL CLEW OF VOUW
BELIEVED TO HAVE GONE TO CANARSIE-TO
DIE.
Based on Gauzy Story From Brook
lynPolice Sconringr the Coun
try for Traces of Murderer.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2L The search for
William Hooper Young, the man wanted
for the murder of Mrs. Joseph Pulitzer,
whose mutilated body was found floating
In the abandoned Morris Canal, near Jer
sey City, Thursday morning last, had,
up to a late hour today, been unavailing.
Thq police forces of this and the sur
rounding boroughs have been bending all
energies and running down all clew3
which come to them to locate Young. The
chief development of .the day came from
Brooklyn, and It leads the police to be
lieve that the fugitive has escaped to the
vicinity of Canarsie, L. I. Captain Titus
is inclined to believe that Young, finding
all avenues of final escape shut off, has
fled to this spot on the Long Island coast
to commit suicide. The Captain has or
dered a special force of detectives to Can
arsie to conduct a thorough search of the
neighborhood.
The story of this clew Is that lato Sat
urday night a man supposed to have been
Young was seen in a lodging-house In
Brooklyn. When he" applied for a room he
was forced to be satisfied with a chair.
Soon afterward he became delirious and
roso to his feet, and others in the room
roso simultaneously, and then the strang
er dashed down the back stairs of tho
hotel with somo of the lodgers after him.
Vaulting tho back fence, tho fugitive fled
up the street. The pursuers gaining upqn
hfm, the stranger halted, drew a revolver
and brought tho lodgers to a stand..
Turning again, ho caught sight of a No-strand-avenue
car bound for Fulton street
and raced for It. Before tho lodgers came
up, tho car with the fugitive on board was
blocks away.
The above story was told to Captain Ti
tus early today, and this evening he re
ceived a corroboration of it. This was
that at 3:30 o'clock this morning a man re
sembling Young had been seen in Can
arsie. The Information was that tho man
seemed all worn out and almost exhaust
ed. The Captain added that Police Cap
tain Short, of Canarsie, and all hi3 forco
were scouring the country thereabouts for
the mnn.
Captain Titus said, however, that ho
feared they would succeed, in case the
man was Young, in finding only his dead
body, as he Is of the impression that
Young -would commit suicide. Up to a
lato hour tonight the search at Canarsie
had been fruitless.
YOUNG ONCE IN PORTLAND.
Alleged Nevr York Murderer Was a
Quiet, Unussnmlng: Clerk.
Hooper Young, alleged murderer of Mrs.
Annie Pullitzer, in New York City, was
well known in Portland and other points
on tho Coast about two years ago. For a
time a newspaper man in San Francisco,
later In the employ of one of the leading
business houses of this city, ho finally
went to Seattle and started a newspaper
known as the Saturday Court News,
which was suppressed by the officers on
account of the obscene publications.
While in-Portland he manifested a char
acter far different than has been told of
in other places. He seemed to be a man
that was easily Influenced, however, and
hi3 friends say that It was always possible
for him to be led into anything if the
proper Inducements were offered. While
here ho was a very studious fellow, and
carried a Bible with him all of the time.
He was very fond of discussing religious
topics, and when he wa3 not at work
was to be found reading biblical liter
ature. He hal an aunt who died but a
short time ago. Her 12-year-old daughter,
who survives her. however. Is a cousin of
the alleged murderer. His people here
wero highly respectable people, and
moved in the best circles of society. His
friends seemed to be among the better
classes, and all seem to feel very badly
that he Has got Into such a scrape. "It
is quite possible, though," they say, "for
him to be led Into "anything." "He was
too good a fellow," said another. "Ho
was willing to do anything that he was
asked, and that naturally led him among
evil companions. If he met a man that
treated him well, he could induce him to
do almost anything."
While In Seattle he is reported to have
been a very different sort of a character.
Ho started a small newspaper, which Is
described as follows:
The paper was printed on pink paper.
Its character was fully In keeping with
Its color. It was nothing more nor less
than an obscene blackmailing rag. Its
news was of questionable occurrences be
low the dead line. Its object apparently
was to connect the name of some prom
inent citizen with some disreputable re
sort south of Yesler Way. If a respect
able citizen wn3 seen about the doors of
any gambling-houses or other low resort
below the dead line, the fact was pub
lished In the Court News unless the cit
izen was willing to pay. to have his name
kept out of the paper. At least such was
the general reputation of the sheet.
The paper, as might be Imagined, kept
itself in trouble. On one occasion It was
raided by private citizens, who had been
victims of its peculiar style of Journal
ism. The language used was of ouch a nature
that at last the police were compelled to
take notice of its existence. The late
Chief Meredith, Detective Wappenstein,
Detective Phillips, Detective Barbee and
other officers visited the place of publica
tion and raided the place. All the copies
of the paper were torn up and the forms,
which wero locked up ready for an edi
tion the following day, were pled on the
floor.
The publishers were arrested and tried
for publishing obscene literature. They
were given suspended sentences. They
wanted to continue the publication of a
paper. They wished to change Its name,
but also to - retain the pink paper, by
which the sheet had become known. Per
mission to do so was refused.
DERBY THINKS IT HAS YOUNG.
Man Answering His Description -Arrested
There.
DERBY, Conn.. Sept. 21. The police
have In custody here a man who answers
the description of William Hooper Young,
of New York, who is wanted in that city
for the murder of Mrs. Annie Pulitzer.
The man vigorously resisted arrest, and
when brought to headquarters refused to
give his name or account for his presence
In this vicinity.
At police headquarters the likeness to
Young was striking despite the fact that
a disguise had been attempted. He wore
a new pair of overalls, light slouch hat
and a light coat and vest. The gold

COMBES TRIES TO MEND.
Refers to Recent Utterances
of
French Minister of Marine.
PARIS, Sept. 21. At a political banquet
given at Matha, Department of Charente
inFeriuere, today, Premier Combes en
deavored to efface the damaging effects
of the recent indiscreet utterance of the
Minister of Marine, M. Felletan, and the
Minister of War, General Andre.
After declaring that the government's
religious policy had not violated the con
cordat, which, he said, the Cabinet re
spected, M. Combes strongly protested
against the action of his political oppo
nents, who, he said, animated by a de
sire to besmirch the government foreign
policy, had seized upon the remarks of In
dividual Ministers, delivered by them In
tho fervor of extemporary after-dinner
oratory, and not always correctly report
ed, and had used them as government
utterances. The Premier contended that
such Individual statements could not in
volvo the responsibility of the govern
ment, which, under the parliamentary
system, could only be Involved by the
Premier, who alone was responsible to
tho Chambers and the country. In the
matter of foreign policy, said M. Combes,
only the Minister of Foreign Affairs is
entitled to speak and act in the name of
tho government.
In conclusion, the Premier summarized
Franco's foreign policy as a desire to
strengthen the existing good relations
with foreign countries, and he reiterated
that there had been no change In the gov
ernment's policy since the day he as
sumed office.
The Premier's speech was received with
prolonged and enthusiastic cheering.
