COMMERCIAL CLUB
At an Interesting session of the
Commercial club held In the dub
rooms Monday evening a report, pre
sented by Chairman llramwell of a
special committee appointed from the
board of trustees, reported In favor
of disposing of the (billiard and
dooI tables from the club eoulnment
iand the installation tn thVlr stead of
dining room equipment, where
lluncheons could be served club mem
Jbers and their guests at such times
las was desired. A lively discussion
followed the presentation of the re
(port, and when It came to voting upon
the report there wns a unanimous
ballot In Its favor. The argument
presented was that with weekly
luncheons served In the club rooms
a better spirit could be maintained
and the business of the club could be
furthered through discussion at the
weekly meeting. The report of the
committee was as follows:
"Your committee, appointed a few
days ago to investigate and offer sug
gestions looking to the betterment
of this sp'.endll organisation, beg to
")t.rt as follcvs, to-wlt:
"We recommend that the rooms
now used as a billiard and pool hall
ibe renovated throughout, the billiard
and pool tables sold and dining
tables and such other furniture as
may be necessary bought, and that
a dining room be operated at such
times as may hereafter be determined
by a committee you may appoint. We
specially suggest that at least once
each week luncheon be served, to be
known as the "Commercial Club
Lunch," and that other meals be
served as often as may be found
proper and profitable. That this
said merchants' lunch be made as
good as possible for a minimum
charge of twenty-five cents, but that
at no event shall the price exceed
thirty-five cents per meal. We sug
gest this special meal be of such
quality that strangers who come Into
our city from time to time can be
Invited to participate without embar
rassment to us, but that the member
extending the Invitation may be
proud of the lunch and the visitor
go away filled with good food, and
also filled to overflowing with senti
ment that will speak kindly of us,
Where everybody goes

PRESIDENT'S SPEECH
LIST IS INCREASED
w London, I'onu., Sept. It
l'roslilmit WtUou bus decided to make
a number of pre-election speeches In
addition to :hoc ulrcudy scheduled -
September "o nt St. I .mil and Sep
tember H at Ituit Iniore.
The president reached this decision
after a talk with Homer Cummlnga,
vice-chairman ot the deniocratlo na
tional committee on the train en route
hern yesterday, Cummlnga, who Is
charged with the duty of rounding
up campaign orators, told the presi
dent be should accept a number of
Iiin Itutlond extended him by organ
izations In different parts of the coun
try where the people are waiting to
be told why the democrat administra
tion should lie returned to power.
Where the additional speeches wilt
be made will be left to the judgment
nf the national committee, but the
president has asked that they be con
fined, -.i far us podslble, to the east.
Ills reason for this Is that If he goes
on an extended trip Into the went he
will be compelled to deliver numer
ous platform speeches all of a poli
tical nature and he wishes to avoid
this, believing that the president of
the I'nlted States should not cam
paign for re-election.
Cumtnlntts urged the president to
make one speech In Connecticut and
itxdlevea he may ncqulence. The pre
sident made It clear, however, that
he will deliver no address before par
tisan organisations or at political
gatherings of any kind. He will ac
cept only Invitations extended him
by organisations non-polltbsl In char
acter. Next Monday Chairman Vance Mc
Cormlck and Cuminlngs plan to con
fer with President Wilson at Shadow
Lawn relutlve to this feature or the
campaign. The meeting wss to have
been held yesterday, but the Illness
of the president's sister neeeeaitstlng
his trip here resulted In a postpone
ment. President Wilson retired early
aboard tho yacht Mayflower last night
and was not Informed of the Maine
ren ulu until this morning. He made
no comment.
