President Mckinley Calls on President
Dole and President Dole Calls on
President McKinley-How Nice.

Washington, Jan. 26.--President Dole
of Hawaii arrived here at 2:20 D. M,
and in behalf of the government was
welcomed by Secretary Sherman and
Assistant Secretary Adee. The presi-
dental party was belated by storms
along the way and it was three hours
after the schedule time when the train
swung into the B. & o. depot. A crowd
of several hundred assembled on North
Capitol street and three pIatoons of
mounted policemen We're on hand as an
escort
AS the train came to a stop Sherman
and Adee stepped on the rear platform
and We're met by Assistant Secretary
Cridler. who conducted them inside for
the first greetings to President and Mrs.
Dole and their party. There was a brief
and informal exchange and then the
party filed out to waiting carriages and
proceeded to the Arlington. where the
Hawaiian executive will be the nations
guest. There was no military display,
democratic simplicity being observed at
Mr.. Dole's request.
The Arlington was reached about 80
o'clock. Secretary Sherman. with Mrs.
Dole on his arm, escorted the party to
their rooms, and then took his official
leave. Mr. Porter. private secretary to
the president, accompanied by Colonel
Bingham, was notified by telephone of
the arrival. and soon appeared bearing
the congratulations of President Nc
kinley, and requesting to be informed
when ii would be most convenient for
the president of the Hawaiian republic
to receive him in person. 1t was ar
ranged that soon after the arrival of
their baggage. President Dole would
notify President Mckinley of their read
mess to receive him. Later in the day
President Mckinley made formal call
on Mr.. Dole. which did not last over Is
minutes. At Ais President Dole re-
turned the visit of President Mckinley.
He drove over TO the white house in a
magnificently appointed carriage in COM
pany with Minister Hatch and Assistant
Secretary Cridler. There President Nc
kinley was in waiting in the library and
gave his guest a greeting.
After a few words of general conver-
sation the two presidents retired to a
couch in one corner of the room and
spent about five minutes in consultation
1t was said that this talk was purely
unofficial and personal Then the party
was escorted down stairs and returned
TO the hotel.

very hoarse and ii was with difficulty he
could be heard above a whisper. Only
the circumstances of the case, he said,
could induce him to attempt to say any
thing to-day. The question presented
was one far greater than the simple one
of a delivery more or less in Chicago or
New York. The statements of the gen.
tleman from New York fQuigg), said
he. were absolutely false and unfounded.
That gentleman. he said, had been hav-
ing himself interviewed. charging that
he (Loud) was responsible for the exist
ing predicament: that he 1oud) had de-
fled congress and the postoffice. and had
forced the department to cut off the
carriers.
Such criticism said Mr. Loud. 'is
beneath my contempt The charge is
made that the postoffice appropriation
bill this year carried s16o.ooO below the
estimates. / know the officials of the
postoffice department back that charge,
but assert that 1t is false
Then you allege falsehood against
the officials of the department. inter-
rupted Mr.. Quigg.
Let him take it who can bear it, re-
sponded Mr.. Loud.
Mr.. Loud proceeded to affirm that the
postoffice officials had contrary to law
appointed 2S9 additional carriers and
created a prospective deficiency of $780,
600. He said further that in the face
dental expenses, s107 900 had been spent
in six months. More than $4,000 of the
reported deficiency, he said. belonged in
that account. He urged the members
not to be so carried away by passion
over the possible loss of carrier or
two as to yield the last vestige of their
power Of circumscribing the acts of the
executive branches of the government.
The perpetuity of the legislative branch
OF the government was involved. he said
He appealed to the members to let the
whole question come regularly in it's
time. when, he said. he would be ready
to discuss the whole subject. Mean
while, he declared. the service could not
possibly suffer until June.
The conference report on the urgency
deficiency bill was submitted and
agreed to-
Several minor provisions in the Indian
bill were ruled out on points of order
In all, 10 pages of the bill were disposed
of to-day. At 5:32 p. m. the house ad-
journed.

A CORRECTION.
Mr.. Levy Finds the Facts DO Not Justify
His Former Statement.

New York, Jan. 26.--In these dis
patches on the night of Jan. is a state
ment was made that more than so un-
faithful employees of the Adams En-
press company, in this city, had been
discovered in recent peculations
amounting to a sum between $4,000 and
$4,000. This allegation grew out of a
conversation between a reporter and
Attorney Abraham Levy. who gave as
his best impression at that time the
numbers and amounts above stated
Being prompted by the exact facts, Mr.
Levy, in fairness to interests involved
and to himself. desires the statement
to be made that there were not at that
time mentioned pecdlations in the num-
Der indicated nor to the extent stated.
The information sent on the date
named indicated that peculations were
conducted Systematically among the
employees of the express company, and
this statement Mr.. Levy feels is equally
fair to himself to say, was not war
ranted by the utterances of his at the
time.
