ROOSEVELT IN CHICAGO.
Enthusiastic Reception Accorded the
New York Governor.

Chicago. April Ex-Governor Theodore
Roosevelt of New York, who is to be
the guest of honor of the Hamilton
club at its annual Appomattox day
banquet tomorrow, arrived in Chicago
this afternoon. The train bearing the
governor was met at the suburban sta
ton of Englewood by a reception COM
mittee, who was, however, lost in an
immense and enthusiastic crowd that
had gathered. The governor was forced
to come to the platform of his car and
say a few words.
From the moment Governor Roosevelt
left his car at the Lake Shore depot,
where he was met by an escort of
eight rough riders, to the doors of his
hotel, he was surrounded and followed
by crowds who cheered him every time
he moved, and shook his hand till the
governor was forced to desist from
sheer exhaustion.
This evening Governor Roosevelt was
given a dinner at the Union Lea que
club. Here again he was given a varrn
welcome, and in return the governor
made short speech.
short time before Governor Roose-
welt had dropped the remark that he
was a cog in a political machine him
self, but the sort of a cog that breaks
away when the machine does not GO
right. In his speech he began by adj
vising the seventy men sitting around
the tables to stay out altogether ather
than cast conscience votes.
Political life is just like the roof
tree of house." he said. There is
happiness and peace in. politics. / sup
pose / get as much happiness out of it
as any one, but as for peace"-and the
governor paused. He also spoke ssr-
castically of so-called ''reformers."

PRIVATE GUNN's LETTER.
Utah Artilleryman Describes Hot
Times About Manila.

Writing from Manila on Feb. % TO his
parents in this city, Private Thomas S.
Gum tells how the insurgents COM
menced hostilities on the night of Feb.
4. 1t happened that the section of the
Utah battery to which Priye Gum be-
lOnged was not called into action until
the next morning, but in going to the
post of duty, a distance of about a
mile. the bullets from the Fflipinos flew
all around the boys thick and fast. That
noon, when Private Gum and his squat
were going back to the gun from din
ne-, Corporal Isaac Russell was driven
up to the hospital wounded. He had
met three natives on the same road
traversed by Private Gums squad and
had been cut behind the ear with a
dagger. Since then about 1000 of these
knives have been captured by the Utah
volunteers
Later Private Gums squad was en-
gagged in the hazardous undertaking OF
carrying ammunition and food to the
gunners on the firing line. Each time
the danger seemed greater, but the
boys passed through the storms of
Mauser bullets unscathed.
Speaking of the effectiveness of the
shells from the Utah guns, the writer
states that whenever a charge of
shrapnel or canister was touched off
it demolished the trenches of the insur-
gents and sent death and destruction to
them, beyond calculation.

CONDITIONS In FRANCE.
Premier Dupuy Declares Them to Be
Satisfactory.

Paris April 9.-Premier Dupuy, in the
course of an important speech to his con-
stituents today, at LIE Puy. said the sit
uation both at home and abroad was en-
inently satisfactory.
He referred apDroyingly to the recent
agreements with Italy and Great Britain,
and said France was Now free for in
dustrial and commercial development and
u large field of colonizing."
Reverting to home affairs. he said:
The agitations are only on the surface.
Beneath are calm industry and security
The end of the Dreyfus affair appears to
be in sight, and the complication will be
unraFeled by the court of cessation. the
judgment of which will be acknowledged
by all.
THE government. however attaches i'm
portance to reiterating it's determination
to repress all policies which call the ma
tional army in question. AS soon as the
court of cessation has given judgment
the government will take the necessary
measures to determine responsibilities
and will act accordingly, If that should be
necessary, but those acts and the punish
meft of individual faults will not affect
the army, which is our hope for the flu
ture, and the Indispensable guardian of
the constitution and law.
IF certain people think otherwise let
us leave them to their despicable folly,
and for ourselves continue to look toward
the army, full of gratitude and conf
dence."

NOT FIT FOR SERVICE.
Hardly rs Per Cent of the Fourth
Infantry Are Veterans.


Correspondence of the Associated Press }
On board the United States army
transport Grant, Singapore. March T.
The officers of the detachment of
troops which the Grant is hurrying to
enforce the American army at Manila
make no secret of the fact that their
men are not fit for immediate service.
Hardly % per cent of the Fourth in
fantry and the battalion of the Seven
teenth on board the Grant are veterans.
The others are recruits. all of whom
were enlisted within two months of
sailing from New York and some of
whom We're taken in during the last
day or two. Their drill has been limit
ed to what the small deck space of a
crowded transport Will allow and dur
ing the first month of the voyage il
amounted to little more than setting
up exercises.
Save for recurrence of Cuban fever,
which frequently attacks even veter-
ans, the physical condition of the
troops is excellent.

Resolved, That we declare our
