i wired Captain Uleecker,' acting com-
mandairt at I3remerton regarding the
truth of the1 newspaper : reports that
the Bremerton town council had de
clined to approve the revoking of the
licenses of the saloons ana gambling
houses on Front street and that these
places are st 111 In operation. If these
reports be . true, Acting Secretaary
Darling says the Department has been
misled. t .."''.. ,
Some, time ago, because ot evil In
fluences which an Investigation showed
existed directly outside of the Bremer
ton Tard, an order was issued that no
more shops be sent there until ' this
condition was remedi. Althugh pow
erful political Influence was brought
to bear on the Department to revoke
this order, ' Acting Secretary Darling
stood his . ground, and- not until the
Bremerton : authorities officially In
formed him that the licenses for all
saloons and gambling houses on Front
street had been revoked and the places
cloned did he consent that the gunboat
Ranger go there for docking. That
vessel has Just arrived at Bremerton, j
Darling desires that, whenever prac
ticable, the yard at Bremerton shall be
kept busy, bu he is determined that
the American sailors shall not be sub
jected to evil influences such as have
existed just outside thfe gates of. the
Bremerton Tard, . .

nu.n s knowledge of the law has espe
ciEllr" fitted him for the position in
which sp many questions of a legal na.

Hon. B. F. Giltner, Mr. Wrightman's
predecessor in office, has occupied the
position for the past sixteen years, hav
ing served eight years under: Hon. O.
W. McBride, four years under Hon". H.
R. KIncaid, and four years under Hon.
F. I. Dunbar. His work has been en
tirely satisfactory' all along, and the
change was made at his own urgent
request, because of. his advanced age
and the'feellng, on his part,. that the
new duties and responsibilities of the
department, which are manifold and
arduous, -would be more, than he cared
to assume. Mr. Giltner will probably
retire from active-business life. '

people from Southern Washington from
the steps of .the Whitman ... Memorial
building, this afternoon. was voted. by
the T men accompanying the President
the 1 finest .effort he has made - since
crossing the Rocky mountains. He
rose to the loftiest flights of conception
here, iused finer rhetoric and was morel
thoroughly enthused than : in most of
his" Westerr speeches. ? There . were
about 11,000 people from :the outside
points to see the President. Ten ex-r
cursion - trains practically depopulated
the country for-fifty miles around. j
. The feature here was a splendid
parade. In which the military of Fort;
Walla. Walla marched. j
- The President's speeoh today took up J
the educational work being done by j
Whitman) College; j the. educational!
standards of the- country: reminis j

: He was particularly pleased with the
presence, of the Whitman students who
were massed In front of-the speaker's
platform. ;: The students gave the Har
vard yell, and Roosevelt 'asked for its
repetition. The long array of Civil
War veterans also delighted him. Con
federates and Union men marched to
gether. - Today's weather could not
have been more perfect.
,; The President was introduced . by
Mayor Gilbert .Hunt. On the platform
were Senators Ankeny and Foster and
' many prominent people. A significant
j feature was the presence of Governor
I. McBride. In - the carriage containing
I Levi Ankeny. The two are supposed to
!' be sworrt political enemies almost
personal enemies, in fact. Tonight the
i President was entertained by Senator
I Levi Ankeny. at his home. Only a se
I lect party of about two dozen was pres.
: ent. It Included Governor McBride.
An expert in the history of the de
scent of European sovereigns says that

of Italy he met a man who has a bet

himself, and but for their Catholic faith

In St. James Palace instead . of th
