SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10The
disappearnce of Edna Clark, the
Berkeley art student, who dropped
from sight of her relatives and
friends, has culminated in a request
for an investigation of his conduct
by Rev. Payson Young, pastor of the
Anglka Church, St. Mayr the Vir
gin, of this city.
Bishop Nicholas has announced his
intention of appointing a committee
of five parishioners to conduct the
investigation. During the past 48
hours Rev. Mr. Yong has secluded
himself and refused to be interview
ed. While the search for the missing
girl has not relaxed, Rev. Mr. Young
has become the central figure in the
case through the statements made
by Miss Edna Reynolds, friend and
confidant of Edna Clark. The girl
has informed the searchers that Rev.
Young received Miss Young in his
study and that she was informed that
he had been in the babit of kissing
and caressing her. This the Rev. Mr.
Young admitted, explaining that he
deemed it part of bis pastoral duty,
but he has denied that any engage
ment existed between him and the

COUNCIL CREST
GRANT AND A. T. STEWART.
Nomination of the Merchant For 8 so
litary of the Treasury.
It was not unnatural that to the ab
solute absence of political experience
Preaktent Grant should not onlyrtiave
bad much to learn concerning the na
ture and conduct of civil governiueut,
but that be should also have bad much
to unlearn of the mental habits and
the ways of thinking be had acquUwl
in the exerclxe of laifce Indeed, almost
unlimited military command. Tbis
was strikingly illustrated by some re
markable incidents.
As usual, the nominations made by
the president for cabinet offices were
promptly ratified by the senate with
out being referred to ary committee.
But after tbis bad been done It was
remembered and reported to President
Grant that one of the nominees so
confirmed, A. T. Stewart of New York,
whom President Grant bad selected
for the secretaryship of the treasury.
as a person engaged in commerce was
disqualified by one of the oldest laws
on the stutote book In fact the act
of Sept 2, 1730. etitablishliig the treas
ury depnrtoient That tbis law, which
provided that the treasury department
baring the administration of the cus
torn bouses under Its control, should
not have at Its head a merchant or im
porter in active business, was entirely
proper-lodeed, a necessary one bad
! never been questioned. The next mora,
jlng, March 6. I bad occasion to call
upon President Grant for the purpose
of presenting to him a congratulatory
message from certain citizens of St
Louis. I found him alone engaged in
writing something on a half sheet of
note paper. "Mr. President" I said,
"I see you are busy, and I do not wish
to interrupt yon. My business can
wait" "Never mind," be answered,
"I am only writing a message to the
senate." My business was quickly dis
posed of, and I withdrew.
In the course of that day's session of
the senate a message from the presl
dent was brought in in which, after
quoting the statute of Sept 2, 1780,
the president asked that Mr. Stewart
be exempted by joint resolution of the
two bouses of congress from the op
eration of tbe law which stood in Mr.
Stewart's way. There were some signs
of surprise among senators when the
message was read, and Mr. Sherman
at once asked unanimous consent to
introduce a bill In accordance with the
president's wish. But Mr. Sumner ob
jected to th$ Immediate consideration
thereof because of Its great importance.
This stopped further proceedings, and
tbe bill was laid on tbe table, never
to be heard of again. Carl Schurz's

lowing the arrival in the city of the
Republican members of the ways
and means committees of the house
for the tariff hearing, and many other
Republican congressmen to attend
to departmental business postponed
until after elction, the selection wf
the speaker of the 61t congress was
a subject of keen discussion today in
Washington. None of the arrivals
cared to come out openly in opposi
tion to the re-election of Speaker
Cannon, while members who have
been closely associated with Mr.
Cannon during his occupancy of the
chair assert positively that there will
be no opposition to him by the time
the Republicans meet to caucus on
the speakership.

NEW YORK LETTER
NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Struggllng
to recover from one of the most in
tense national campaigns in its his
tory, Gotham is to-day heroically en
gaged in getting down to business
after the months of political turmoil
hich have just ended. Hundreds of
the statesmen from every section of
the union who have been decorating
the lobbies of Broadway about each
party, headquarters in town have al
ready made a sweeping exodus to
their home regions. An army of man
agers, clerks, press agents, steno
graphers, messengers and office boys
are to-day looking for jobs where
there is tess excitement and pay
than in the offices from which they
have been pushing various political
propaganda. Real estate agents are
sadly surveying the many empty
suites from which they reaped rich
rentals for short campaign terms.
For all its tardy undertaking, the
campaign of 1908 has finished with a
record outburst here and it will be
weeks before the .smoke of battle
has cleared away.
RUSSIANS AND REFUGE.
Little less than a revolution is
brewing among the hundreds of thou
sands of Russian emigrants over on
the East Side to-day, while the au
thorities in this land of the free tem
porize over the release of Jan Tour
en. If the power of the Czar of all
the Russian finally avails to clutch
and return to Siberia this refugee
who has long languished in the
Tombs prison here the effect will
work serious upheaval among the
army of exiles who have come here
to feel secure of their lives and liber
ties. Already the success of the emis
saries of the Czar in further prolong
ing the imprisonment of their inten
ded victim has sadly shaken the faith
of the extensive Russian population
in this city. Powerful friends of Rus
sian freedom are, however, banding
together to-day to aid the trembling
fugitive, and Uncle Sam will not be
allowed to give him up
fight
without
BEFRIENDNNG BIRDS.
For the sake of the feathered
tribes of America, delegates from ev
ery section of the country have come
to this city to further the work of
the National Association of Audu
bon Societies this week. Of more ul
timate importance than any issue of
the campaign which raged about
them, these experts on bird life de
clare,- is the problem of saving the
country's crops by preserving their
winged protectors. Since it has been
proven that ?800,000,000 might be
saved to the farmers of the land last
year by checking the destruction of
the insect-eating birds, the reason
for expanding this Audubon work is
appealing to people here. Even New
Yorkers have a warm spot in their
hearts for the birds, of whom they
see so few, and the spreading fight
district, where a bitter light was
waged Aitnlnst him, but they point
out that many of the member who
had their opposition to his re-election
as speaker, met with defeat at the
polls.
The election of William H. Taft to
the'White House is regarded by Mr.
Cannon's friends as a harrier to any
Ohio congressman being selected to
rule over the houne. In addition
Congressman Theodore E. Burton
and former Speaker J. Warren KeU
fer, both of Ohio, rat said to nave
scnatoriul ambitious that would in
terfere this winter with a campaign
on their part for speaker.

ARISTOCRATIC AGITATORS.
After weeks af watching the col
lege man and theorist grap the
hands of the masses behind kid
gloves, the .public here is looking
forward with amusement to the out
come of this socialistic freak that has
enlivened all the campaign over on
the East Side. Hunter, Stokes, Stef
fens and a score of gentlemen ama
teurs have appeared with great reg
ularity in the gatherings of the dis
ciples of Debs, and to day it is repor
ted that they will continue to wave
the red rag from time to time among
the defenseless poor of the slums. As
campaign capers, no one here objects
to these activities of the faddish ar
istocrats; for nothing more deadly
than fireworks has been the outcome
of their election exhortations. New
York remembers the day not long
ago, however, when a hundred police
men almost gave their lives to the
bomb that was thrown from one of
young Mr. Hunter's audiences and
these genteel young cranks will here
after be kept well within bounds.
MISPLACED MEN.
With Christy Matthewsaon blos
soming out as a campaign orator and
Mike Donlin making his debut on
the stage, Gotham is today being
treated to a wierd warm-over of the
baseball enthusiasm of the past sea
son. The sight of the blond giant who
adorns the pitcher's box, stammering
on the stump has proven almost as
pitiful as the forensic efforts of the
man who has no peer in right field
or at bat. Except for the enthusiasm
of the irrepressible "fan," the public
here has found these giants as much
a frost off the diamond as they are a
hit in their natural sphere.
