The eCOHm1MlSSiOner VIII Not Deny
Nor Confirm This RunOr.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-A sensational
rumor was current this morning that
Commissioner of Pensions Raum had
rendered his resignation to the President
to take effect Aug 1.
The commissioner himself would nci-
ther deny nor confirm the story, and no
information concerning it could be OBJ
tained at the white house.
Members of the house who heard the
story believed it to be based upon the
statement the President made last week
to personal friend, that Raum's admin
istration of the office had caused him
more anxiety and annoyance than all the
other departments of the government
combined. He added that he had about
arrived at the conclusion that to retain
Raum longer would probably result
more disastrously than to let him 30 at
once.
The republican members of the Raum
committee filed their minority report
today. 1t finds nothing for which the
commissioner can be criticised, unless it
be that he appointed his son appoint
mcnt clerk of the bureau and asserts that
the majority of the committee seemed de-
termined to fasten crime and corruption
upon him, but, having utterly failed OF
evidence, tried to do so by Inference

TIL: COUNTRY CLUB.
The People of Asheyille want
-.---..- .-- Plenty of sports.


The skies are bright for the lovers of
sport i'll Asheville. Gala Week was a
revelation cven to those who have be-
lieved all along that there was good ma
tcrial Lcrc for athletics, but the most
sanguine scarcely believed that there
was such a desire on the part of the pco-
pie generally to witness the contests
and contribute to their success. Their
contributions to the firemen were superb,
their presence at the shooting, racing
and on Montford avenue counted in the
thousands. There was such large fine
time that everybody has been saying to
everybody else, Let's have 'em often"
Frtm the exuberance of good things
has come the Asheville Country club-in
the hands of men with ideas beyond the
walls of their counting rooms-they are
shaping an organization to be run on
business principles that will foster out
door sports and add to the desirabilty
of life in this favored resort.
The scheme is that number of sue
cessful business men control club that
will place at the disposal of interested
patrons race course with suitable
buildings within easy access where gentle
men may speed, stable or train their
horses at their desire, and where
contemplating purchasers may have
an opportunity of testing offered
stocK. In their season will be held
baseball, football, foot racing, tennis,
riding and shooting tournaments,
poultry and bench shows and every
legitimate sport to bring together the
gentry of the country.
A meeting will be called in few
days for organization. The program OF
tomorrow's sports is a good one and
will doubtless attract asgreat acrowd as
that of the best day of last week.

To Stay Till The Difficulties at
Homestead Are Scttled-Striker
Admitted TO Bail.
e EHoMEsTEAD, July 20.-A statement
made by Gen. Snowdcn that the troops
will be kept here till the trouble is set
tied one way or the other has caused a
profound sensation III Homestead. Ex.
cept for the women cursing the militia,
Homestead is in dcathlikc quiet.
MAY God remember you for coming
here to help take bread from my chill
dren," shrieked one woman at Col
Green, the officer in command nearest the
Carnegie property and closr to the
strikers headquarters.
Experiences of this sort, while not
numerous, were not rclished by the SOL
diers. They attribute the outbreaks of
bitterness to the growing dependency
in the strikers ranks. Some even based
the broad prediction on such disagrceable
incidents that the break up of the strike
is already begun.
The strikers on the other hand had a
different explanation of any increased
bad feeling for the troops. 1t was sug-
gested that the announcement by Snow
den that, contrary to widespread ex-
preston, the troops would not be with
drawn till the existing difficulties in
Homestead were settled, had more to do
with the growth of the dislike for the
military than had any alleged dcspon-
dency. The time selected for the an
nouncement that the troops were to be
fixture came in for some rather harsh
comment. The fact was pointed out
that the information was made public
by Gen. Snowden exactly at critical
juncture when it circulated in print the
last day before the one set by Superin-
tendent Potter as the final limit in which
applications for work would be received
from the strikers.
