self.
The 2Sth annual banquet Of the New York
chamber Of commerce was held In New York
last week at Delmonico's, and among the
376 guests were the most prominent profess
sional and comercial men OF the country, as
well as distinguished statesmen and poll
ticisns. The following letter was read:
Executive Mansion,
WAsHISaToS, Nov. 10
Alexander Orr, President, Etc:
My Dear Sir: The pleasure which par
ticipation I'm the banquets of the chamber OF
commerce has afforded mo In the past and
the kindly feeling and broad spirit OF enter
prfses which always pervaded those occa-
sions cause me to regret most sincerely that
cannot join the goodly company that will
gather around the chambers hospitable
board tomorrow evening.
Recent events may well cause those who
represent business interests to rejoice at their
escape from the threatened peril. But while
they have greatest reason for rejoicing and
can view with greatest satisfaction the sup
port they have given sound money IN tho
cohtcst recently waged against it. earnestly
nope that in this time of congratulation 1t
will be remembered that constant vigilance
and continued effort are required to main
tain political conditions but that absolute
safety will only be secured when our tlnan-
cial system is protected by Affirmative and
thorough reforms. When our business men
are hahitually alert and watchful and when
they arc active, fully aroused to the impor-
tance Of such Legislative action concerning
our finances as business methods approve
and the welfare OF the entire country requires,
much good may confidently be anticipated,
not only In the accomplishment OF political
results. bu Tin the revival OF hcalthful influ-
ences through an assurance to the people
that business and patriotism are becoming
more and more united.
Very truly.

1t was only after President Hoffman CON

The latest concerning the sale OF the Sea-
board Air Line is that Mr.. Ryan will sue the

likely To- follow the failure of the Holman
