Interest the duel going on between Presi
dent Roosevelt and the Senate, while It
!! the President's tilt with certain
newspaper a "study In vituperation."
u-h as no Anglo-Saxon community ever
tfrre witnessed. It la generally agreed
that the President la entirely wrong- In
giving- way to such language, no matter
w hnt the provocation, for only a loss of
personal dignity and. harm to the pres
tige of hi ofTlee can result.
Several alienists write asserting that
the President is mad and that It is not
to he wondered at, after seven years of
triumph nnd adulation such as no Euro
pean sovereign has received for several
centuries. Politicians are interested be
cause they are waiting to see what atti
tude the American p- ople will adopt to
ward their "Kaiaer."
One editorial insists that ever since he

have been morally cowed by President
Roosevelt.

Roosevelt haa begun preparing for sub
mission to Congress a mass of evidence
upon which he based the statements In
his annual message regarding the secret
service, .which the Perkins resolution
passed yesterday in the House called
upon the " President to produce. The
amount of work necessary to put this
evidence In shape for presentation to
Congress Is so great that it will not he

0 INTENTION TO INSULT IT
Roosevelt Will Surprise Congress by
Mildness of Reply.
WASHINGTON. Dec 18. (Special.)
From an authoritative aource it Is
learned that President Roosevelt has
under contemplation a surprising reply
to Congress as the result of the resolu
tion passed by the House yesterday
calling; upon him to furnish that body
with such Information as he may j?os
sesa In substantiation of his strictures
upon Congress, with respect to the Se
cret Service Inhibition law passed by
the last Congress.
The surprise lies in the understand
ing that the President may disavow
any Intention to Insult Congress or
hurt Its feelings: that he will deny the
Secret Service has been used to spy
upon Congressmen, and will Indulge In
no personalities as to their private
movements. fc
Aa an evidence of the attitude of
Congress pending the settlement of
this controversy, the Senate refused
yesterday to consider a bill providing
for an Inland Waterways Commission
and adjourned without even setting a
date for Its consideration.

Resembled Mage Sliylock In Great
est Crowd in Constantinople
In "500 Years. ,
CONSTANTINOPLE, Turkey. Dec. 18.
(Special.) The scene before the Mosque
of St. Sofia at the opening of the Turkish
Parliament as the Sultan reached the
Tarliament-house after his four-mile Jour
ney by lan3. exceeded anything that had
been Imagined beforehand. Thousands of
persons were clustered on the roofs, pil
lars and buttresses of the ancient church
two mullahs even standing on the sum
mit of the dome. Trees, windows and
the flat roofs of houses were crowded
with spectators. No other such multi
tude has gathered In Constantinople in
600 years, yet throughout the entire day
no disorder whatever was observed.
There was a deadly hush when the
Sultan entered his box and everybody
stood up. Bent and clad in a shabby
overcoat, without a single deooration, the
Sultan bore a remarkable resemblance
to a stage Shylock. and looked rather
like a criminal in the dock than a ruler
blessing hia people.
"DELUXE" AGENT IN HURRY
Mrs. Patton Tells of Mad Haste to
Cover Exjiensc Account.
CHICAGO. Dec. 18. Mrs. James A.
Tatton. victim In the alleged "de luxe"
book frauds for which W. N. Cooper
and Samuel T. Warfleld are now on
trial, has told on the stand the story
of the muddled financial dal from the
time she was first approached by John
3f. McFarland. who has turned stace's
evidence, until she ceased to pay his
supposed expenses on supposed trips
of investigation relating to her book
transactions.
Something of Mrs. Patton's attitude
toward the whole world of book manu
facture was indicated by a remark she
dropped in response to a question as
to the manner of McFarland in "can
vassing." "Oh, always rushed always In mad
haste to close up the deal and get away
for some reason," was the response of
the witness.
"I have come to understand lately
that these bookmen are always in a
hurry to get away to catch a train or
something when they have a deal on.
The main Idea is to hurry the thing
through without giving the customer
time for thought."

Only Man Mentioned for Interior
Department Taft Looking for
Good War Secretary Straus
and Wilson May Stay.
AUGUSTA, Ga., Dee. IS.-Presldent-elect
Taft tonight announced the ap
pointment of Senator Philander C. Knox
as secretary of State In his Cabinet.
The announcement followed the receipt
by Mr. Taft of a telegram conveying the
Information from Mr. Knox that he
would accept the ofTlee. Mr. Taft without
delay announced that the matter waa
settled. He said the offer was made .to
Mr. Knox last Sunday In New Tork and
that since the offer he had not heard
from Mr. Knox until today's telegram.
"I feel that I am to be congratulated
op securing the services of Senator Knox
in my Cabinet," said Mr. Taft. "In
selecting a Secretary of State I wanted
first, a great lawyer, and, second, a man
who would fill the public eye, not only
here but abroad, as a man who stands
out pre-eminently as a great American."
Mr. Taft also feels that from a poli
tical viewpoint the selection of Mr.
Knox Is most happy. He explained that
there was often a feeling that Pennsyl
vania, with ita Republican majorities,
was slighted In the matter of recognition.
That this will not be the case in hia
administration .was Indicated In the an
nouncement by Mr. Taft that he would
Invite Mr. Knox to come to Augusta that
be might consult, him freely with refer
ence to filling other places in his Cabinet.
It was stated at the Capitol that Mr.
Taft' is looking for a man to take the
war portfolio who has had sufficient
experience to work out the reorgani
zation scheme put Into . force by Mr.
Root while he was at the head of that
department.
The position of Secretary of Com
merce and Labor has been mentioned to
very slight extent, and In some quar
ters it is thought possible that Secre
tary Straus, who also is from New
York, will be continued in that post,
for a time at least.
For Secretary of Agriculture it is
practically conceded that James Wilson,
of Iowa, will be continued for a year
or more. The appointment of Frank

Revolver and Aimed at
Him and Others.
FLUSHING, N. T., Dec. 18. The trial
of Thornton J. Hains on the charge of
aiding his brother. Captain Peter C.
Hains, Jr., in the killing of William
E. Annis was adjourned tonight until
Monday, after a day in which the state
developed the strongest testimony so
far' adduced. Two witnesses, Herbert
L. Funke and Arthur Andrews, eye
witnesses to the shooting, swore that
there was an Interval between the first
shot fired by Captain Hains at Annis
and the others that came in fairly rapid
succession.
Both of these club members declared
positively that Thornton Hains aimed
his revolver at those on the float after
the first shot and before the succeed
ing shots were fired. An exhaustive
cross-examination on this point, ma
terial to the prosecution's case, failed
to shake their testimony. Mr. Andrews
stated that after the first shot he saw
the defendant aim his revolver at wit
ness' father.
"There was a shot, then an biterval.
when there were some more shots In
quick succession, then 'a pause and a
last ahot which went through the sail.
I ran when I saw Thornton point his
revolver at my father, and stood under
the dock," said Mr. Andrews.
Graphic Story of Shooting.
Mr, Funke gave a graphic descrip
tion of the shooting of Annis. Stand
ing by with his arms folded, the Cap
tain waited until Annis" boat swept up
beside the float, he said; then, lifting;
the obscuring sail, Hains fired several
shots at the publisher.
Mr. Funke said he saw Captain Hains
on the float as Annis' boat came in.
Thornton Hains was standing about a
yard from the Captai. who seized the
boom of the boat wtti his left hand and
with his right drew his revolver. Cry
ing "Annis," the Captain fired, and al
most immediately Thornton Hains
aimed a revolver at the witness, who
was about seven feet away.
The witness said that Captain

. NEW 0 11 LEANS, La., Dec 18. (Spe
cial.) A letter to the Picayune from
Puerto Cortez, Spanish Honduras, under
date of December 12, says:
"Last night 40 or 50 soldiers, having
filled up on aguardiente and taking
advantage of the absence of the com
mandante, mutinied and started up the
main stroet firing their guns at every
thing in sight They fired into several
houses, but, fortunately, no one was
hit The home of the American agent
of the Central Steamship Company was
perforated by one of the bullets. The
town was terrorized for a time, and
word was immediately dispatched to
the United States gunboat Dubuque,

','In the meantime the American Con
sul, A- W. Brickwood. Jr., walked into
the midst of tho mutineers and warned
them to be careful not to Injure any
American or other foreigner and re
spect foreign property. He talked
so earnestly to them, an& pointed to
the gunboat out In the harbor, that
they sobered up and most of them re
turned to their barracks.
"In tho meantime the commander of
the Dubuqi(fa sent a boatload of Jackics
ashore, but the commanding officer,
learning that the trouble was over, re

some criticism by American residents,
who feared another outbreak and

GLASS WORKERS' STRIKE
Trouble With Manufacturers Over
Wages May Send Them Out.
PITTSBURG., Dec. IS. A strike is
imminent among the window-glass
workers, numbering from 10,000 to
12,000, throughout the country. The
men claim the present rate of wages Is
Insufficient for a decent living, while
the employers assert that they must
have the present csale or shut down
their plants.
It is also claimed by the workers that
the strike situation Is forced on them
by reason of needless cuts In the sell
ing price of glass. by the manufactur
ers. As the men are paid on the basis
of a sliding scale, each cut reduces their
compensation. - The men demand a fixed
wage scale which averages about 25 per
cent higher than the present rate. Ac
cording to reports received here it is
likely the trouble will not be adjusted
by night and a strike wilj-esult.
Indlctlons point to eithfT capitulation
on the part of the Nntlonal Window
Glass Workers' Association or one ' of
the biggest strikes known to the window
glas strade in years. The going Into ef
fect of the new wage scales has been
postponed from December 19 to Decem
ber 22. At Columbus, O., all the window
glass manufacturers in tho country will
meet to take action on the scale.
Manufacturers say that they 'Jiave
many orders in their books at prices now
prevailing and that the new scale would
cause them to lose thousands of dollars.

UNION CITT. Tenn.. Dec. IS. The trial
of the Night Riders for the murder of
Captain Quentin Ranken began today
with a solemn warning to the newspapers
not to publish the evidence lest perspec
tive Juries In loter trials should disqual
ify themselves by reading it. He threat
ened, if this warning was disregarded, to
take steps to enforce his order.- but it
was ignored by the large body of news
paper men present.
The state made material progress, testi
mony covering the detaiia of the murder
of Captain Ranken being presented.
Unkempt, Scowling' Prisoners.
The prisoners, unkempt, scowling and
silent, paid little attention to the pro
ceedings. Only once did they betray
any emotion. One witness who had been
sworn into the bond against his will, tes.
tined that the only, part of the oath he
remembered was that providing they
would kill him if he revealed anything.
At this some of the prisoners grinned.
Ed. Powell was an important witness
for the state. Powell was dragged from
his bed the night of the Ranken murder
and forced to accompany the band to the
Walnut lug Hotel, from which Ranken
and Taylor were taken. Powell said he
recognized Garrett Johnson' and Roy
Ransom as members of the band.

When the Riders took Ranken snd Tay
lor out of the hotel into the woods, they
took rowell along,' too, he said. He
heard them questioning the two men aa
to their title to the land in the Reelfoot
district. Near the spot Where Ranken
was murdered they halted Powell until
the ciime was done. When they asked
him if he recognized any of them and
he said no. they told him to tell Ward,
the hotel proprietor, to come down for
the bodies of his guests.
