Cambridge, Mass, Jan Pa large
and enthusiastic meeting was held to-
night in Sanders theatre for the pur-
pose of organizing the athletic asso-
citation of Harvard graduates. W. A.
Bancroft, rs, presided, and addresses
were made by Mr.. Bancroft and Theo-
dore Roosevelt, assistant secretary of
the navy. The latter declared that he
was a thorough believer in athletics as
an important influence in the develop
ment of character. Though he might
be considered a hereto he confessed
also a preference for those sports which
were called rough. 1t did man good,
he said, to buck up against an oppo-
nent and get through him like gen.
tleman always, but working for every
ounce that was in him.
Il don't believe" he continued, in
the doctrine of peace We have seen
the concert of Europe keep peace for
the past two years at the expense of
more blOodshed and misery than has
been caused by all the wars of the lass
half century. Lately we have seen
peaceful acquisition of territory in
China made in circumstances of pro-
found peace" Naughter.)
Mr.. Roosevelt said the softer virtues
were essential to civilization, but in
the last resort the man that had it in
him to give himself heart and soul to
the cause in which he was engaged had
the qualities that would make him the
most useful citizen.

mits Sensational Testimony.

washington, Jan 26.-Rev. f. D..
Bailey. chief of the examiners office,
civil service commission submitted
some sensational testimony at today $
session of the senate civil service in
vestigating committee. 1t was a Sc
quel to the charges he made Monday
of intimidation and in the interference
of the commission with his testimony.
He called attention to the bitter at
tack made on him then by President
Proctor of the commission. He read
a letter he had addressed to Theodore
Roosevelt, the New York police COM
missioner, severely criticizing the COM
mission. This letter said in part:
THE business of the commission is
in the greatest confusion and is be-
coming more and more demoralized for
want of intelligent management
Reuuisitions remain Enacted upon for
months. and many complaints are made
by the departments of delays and an
noyances detrimental to the service. In
such cases temporary appointments
were authorized. and after 80 days
made permanent. although no rule ex-
lists permitting such actions. These
acquisitions probably cover several
hundred places"

Washington, Jan. 26.-Hon. Joseph
McKenna took his seat on the bench of
the supreme court of the United States
today as associate justice. The official
ceremony inducing him into this i'm
portant office consumed less than four
minutes and was simple in the ex-
IRENE. Mr. McKenna had already
taken the general oath of office before
the chief justice, when, at one minute
past u O'Clock, he walked into the court
room, bringing up the rear of the pro-
cession of justices.
He, like all the other members of the
court, wore a long flowing black robe.
The court room was crowded in antici-
patton of the event. When he entered
the chamber the new justice stopped at
Clerk McKenney's desk, where he re-
manned While the other justices took
their respective seats upon the bench.
Chief Justice Fuller announced the
presence of the new justice, saying: 1t
gives me pleasure to announce to the
gentlemen of the bar that Mr.. Joseph
McKenna has been appointed an as
sociate justice of this court"
The clerk handed Mr.. McKenna a
copy of the judicial oath and he read it
in clear, distinct voice, and then was
escorted to his seat on the extreme
left of the chief justice by Marshal
Wright, the court remaining standing.
He was welcomed with a cordial shake
of the hand from Justice White, his
nearest neighbor, and with bows from
the other members of the court, where
upon all took their seats.
With this the ceremony concluded,
and the court. proceeded with the bust
ness before it, the first case being that
dealing with the Texas antitrust laws.

IN THE HOUSE.
The Red Men and Lstter Carriers,
Topics of the Day.


Topics of the Day.
washington, Jan. 26.-Without any
preliminary buginess the house today
went into committee of the whole and
resumed consideration Of the Indian
appropriation bill. The pending amend
ment was that to strike out the ap-
preparation for the Carlisle Indian
school.
Mr. Sherman CRep., \. ", in charge
Of the bill, defended the work of the
Carlisle school which, he said, was the
greatest Industrial school in the coun-
try Everything was taught there
which was necessary to make the In
dian a self-supporting citizen any
where in the world. His observation
was that the best Indian schools were
those which were not on the reSerVa-
tions. He said the Carlisle football
eleven had placed 5000 in the treasury
of that college during the past season.
MIR. Cannon CRep., Ills) expressed
the opinion that the Indians were not
progressing. 1t was only in the Indian
Territory that their condition was rela-
lively good. He thought that educa-
tionaI western schools would effect lit
tie.
Mr.. Smith (Arizona) insisted that the
Indians should be given farms which
they could not dispose Of; agricultural
implements and teachers. Then the
Indian would be compelled to rise to
the civilization around him or be
crushed by II. The present system kept
him in helpless, hopeless vagabondage.
after some further remarks by
Messrs. Barrows (Rep., Mass.) and
Callahan COklahoma) the motion to
strike out the appropriation for the
Carlisle Indian school, offered by Mr..
Smith (Arizona), was defeated-29 TO 50.
BY far the most interesting feature
CT the day was the debate on the ques-
ton of reducing the mail carrier serv-
ice in the large cities, owing to the
failure of the senate to attach the esti-
mated deficiency of $4,000 to the
urgent deficiency bill. This subject has
been agitating the metropolitan cities
ever since the order was issued for
cutting down the force on Feb. 1. A
dozen representatives from as many
different cities protested against the

CHICAGO BIRDS WIN.
One of the Greatest Matches Ever
Held In the West.


Chicago. Jan. 26.-Chicago birds de-
feated the eastern representatives yes
terday' in one of the greatest matches
held in the west. The cocks were fur
nished by John Mackin of this city and
Frank Casey of Blackstone, Mass The
latter was accompanied by about a
dozen prominent sporting men from
Boston, who were anxious to back up
birds The main was for $4,000, and
large amounts were wagered on each
battle.
On account of threatened prosecution
by the Illinois Humane society, which
offered a reward for information, the
battles were fought at Antioch. about
40 miles from this city. but in the state.
Twenty-one birds were shown by each
side, of which 10 fell in The weights
were four pounds and six ounces TO
catch weights, alternating heavy and
light birds.
The eastern contingent was well sup
piled with money and bet the western
men to a standstill, both on the main
and each battle.
Casey won the first four without
much trouble. and the score was five
to one after the sixth.
Mackin had fought three Japanese
sent especially by Green of Sacramento.
In each instance they lost without even
putting up a good fight. He then
changed his tactics and refused to
throw any more Japanese, using birds
bred by himself and Groves. With the
score six to two against him. he won
six straight battles. One cock won
twice.
Old-timers said it was the fastest
fighting they ever saw. The birds on
each side were game to the utmost de-
gree. The main lasted six hours.
The eastern men are supposed TO
have lost between $1,000 and $4,000 on
the result.

CURRENCY COMMITTEE.
Refusal to Hear Silver Men Will Not
Go On Record.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The house
committee on banking and currency,
held a brief session today but did not
take action toward reporting any cur
rency bill:
In behalf of the minority Mr.. Cox,
of Tennessee, moved that the official
proceedings embrace the application
for hearing of President Warner, of
the bimetallic union, and Chairman
Towne. of the silver Republican COM
mittee and the refusal of the commit
tee to hear them. The motion was de-
feated by a party vote with the eX-
ception of Chairman Walker. who
voted with the minority. The commit
tee. then adjourned until next Wednes-
day and the Republican members went
into secret session with a view of
reaching. some common understanding
if possible.
At the executive session of the Re
publican members of the house COM
mittee on banking and currency. this
afternoon, the attitude of the members
was polled and the procedure in the
drafting of the currency legislation
mapped out. The Republican members
of the committee decided to meet on
Monday, Wednesday and Friday of
each succeeding week until their work
is completed. A resolution offered by
Mr.. Johnson assigning each one pres
ent five minutes in which to declare
his attitude, whether he thought there
was necessity for banking legisla-
ton, and if so, what essential principle
he favored for Incorporation in the cur
rency measure to be finally framed, was
adopted and the roll then called.
Mr.. Walker favored a revision of the
system which would take the currency
business away from the government
and furnish at once a banking on as
sets. He would not provide any plan
materially differing from this. Mr..
Brossius of Pennsylvania was opposed
to retiring the greenbacks and
degree. Mr.. Johnson of Indiana,
urged the gold standard, re-
tirement of the greenback, eliminating
the currency business from the treas
ury and issuing new circulation
through national banks to take it's
place, the new circulation to be under
national control Mr.. Vanvoorhes of
BrOssius. while Messrs. McCleary of
Minnesota and Mitchell of New York
had views along the lines of Mr.. John
sons policy.
Mr. Spalding of Michigan opposed a
declaration for the gold standard in so
many words. and was not certain that
he was willing to have the greenbacks
Hill of Connecticut favored the none
tary commission bill and practically
agreed with Mr.. johnson.
Mr.. Prince of Illinois opposed the spe-
cific declaration for the gold standard,
and thought the retirement of green
backs should be carefully dealt with,
and favored banking on assets.
Mr.. Capron of Rhode Island approved
of allowing banks to extend circulation
to the par value of their bonds, the in
corporation of banks with stock and
capital and a diminished tax on circu-
lation. This, he believed. would pave
the way for more extensive currency
legislation in the future.

LUETGERT TRIAL.
Testimony of a Bookbinder Regarded
Important-Prosecu Will Con-
trovert the Stories.

Chicago, Jan. 26.-Otto Klatt, book
binder was the most important witness

came out of one of the houses, which he
believes was Luetgerts, and crossed the
street in front of his rig. klatt says ne
heard a gate slam, ana before ne coulu
see her the woman was almost under
the horses feet2 She reached her hand

l called out TO her look out or III run
over you. She made no reply but went
on across the street Then the witness
said the woman had a package under her
arms and was about his size. Klatt said
enough to identify her either personally
or by photograph. Klatt told q fairly
straight story and his testimony seemed
to impress the jury more than that OF
any other witness yet put ON the stand,
Luetgert himself not excepted.
According to the testimony of the wit
case with adjournment of the court to-
day. the missing wife of Adolph Luetgert
is ubiquitous.

witnesses will be brought in TO testify
that Mrs Luetgert had been elsewhere
since the night of May last.

tomorrow the state will begin its re-
buttal- A score of witnesses will be in
troduced to controvert the stories of
Luetgert's friends. but the prosecution

SEMINOLE BURNING INQUIRY.
No Lynchers Yet Arrested, But
Names Were Obtained.

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 26.-Deputy Unit
ed States Marshal Tilghman returned
tonight from Pottawattomie county,
where he has been for a week invest
igating the recent burning of the two
Seminole Indians. He states that there
is no truth in the report Of the arrest
of some of the lynchers. The names
of a score or more of the mob have
been obtained by the citizens, however,
together with strong evidence. a large
number of warrants will be issued at
once and wholesale arrests will be made
before the week is out.
He says that almost every member of
the mob is a resident of the Indian ter
ritory, and that the arrests viii first
be made there on a charge of kid
mapping and conspiracy, as the muir
der charge will hold only on the Okla
homa side of the line.
United States Marshal Thompson is
daily expecting special instructions
from the department of justice to as
sist the county authorities in prosecut-
ing the members of the mob for muir
der.

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.
Gary Would Like to Put the System
In Operation.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The senate
committee on postoffices and post roads
today had under consideration the ad-
visibility of establishing the scheme of
postal savings banks in the United
States. This discussion was general and
the only conclusion reached was that
Senators Mason and Butler should pre-
pare the bill, which could be used as a
base for future deliberations
A communication was read from
Postmaster General Gary making sug-
gestioDs regarding the details of the leg
islatIon proposed. Among other pro-
visions urged by him was one giving
the largest possible discretion to the
postmaster general in putting the new
system into operation.
Mr.. Gary stated that in his opinion
the tendency is to make the interest
rate too high.
THE downward tendency of interest
rates is unmistakable,' he said. He
thought a rate too low preferable to
one too high, and suggested per cent
as a prudent and reasonable rate. He
also suggested the Importance of pro-
viding certain postoftices or sub-treas-
uries as repositories for the postofice
