Cleveland Writes Another Letter
WASHINGTON, August 15.-The
President has written a personal let
ter to Chairman Wilson on the ont.
come OF the tariff battle. 1t will not
be made public, nor would any refer
ence whatever to it have been allow
ed had not some one of Wilson's
friends inadvertently disclosed the
fact.
The letter was written Monday
morning as soon as the President re.
ceived the bulletin saying the House
had determined to recede from the
disagreement and accept the Senate
bill.
The letter speaks feeIingly of Viii.
sons devotion to tariff reform, and to
his unseIfish sacrifice of his health
and strength to carry out the princi-
pies OF the party. 1t does not discuss
the tariff question except in an indi-
rect way, expressing deep sympathy
and regret for the personal reverse
met by Wilson.

Frank Mckee, the Ohio marble worker who
undertook to hold up the saloon at 247 Mott
street at the point of a revolver on the night Of
Nov. 30. was arraigned yesterday at the bar Of
the General Sessions before Judge Fitzgerald.
There was nothing Of the whooping wild West
erner about him as he stood disconsolate at the
bar, with a very long face and his head done up
in q bandage. There were three indictments
against him for assault in the first degree. each
of them entailing ten years Imprisonment in
State prison. Assistant District Attorney
O'Hare accepted his plea OF guilty to one of the
indictments, charging him with shooting at and
wounding William Hogan, who was taking q
drink In the saloon at the time that Mckee
burst into it and began shooting right and left.
Mr.. O'Hare told Judge Fitzgerald that another
victim of Mckee's pistol, James j. Mackey, who
had been seriously wounded. was still in the hos
pital. Judge Fitzgerald did not impose SEN
tence because Mackey's,l life is still, in danger,
