DEWEY CALLS ON PRESIDENT.
Does Not Discuss with Him, How
ever, the Schley Case-Prepared
for Hard Work on Case.

Washington, Nov. Admiral Dewey
called upon President Roosevelt Sat-
urday, but did not discuss with him the
Schley court of inquiry, except to tell
the president that the pubic sessions
of the court would be concluded in
few days.
''When we begin to sift the testimony"
said the admiral, "our real work will be-
gin. I told Secretary Long when he asked
me to become president of the court that
I would rather go through another bat
tie in Manila bay. The hardest part of this
work will be wading through the mass of
testimony and reaching our conclusions
I have two able associates, however, and
realize that we are on trial before the
country as well as Admiral Schley Two
ADLER, better men, could not have been Sc
cured than Admirals Benham and Ram
sey."
Admiral Dewey said that the court
probably would take up each charge in
the precept, review the testimony, and
give the facts as they found them and
give such an opinion as they called for.
He did not know that this would be
done as he had not discussed the case
with his associates, but it had occurred
to him that this would be good plan.
He felt, he said, that the American peo-
pie would want the courts reasons in
detail and were entitled to know them.

A recent estimate places the NUM-

in the world at 1924, of which eS4

be exact in such statement, mas
much as the wild survivors can not be
rounded up and counted. In the dense
ly wooded region between the Sas-
katchewan and Peace rivers, in British
Columbia, are several hundred buffa-
10; there twenty or so, perhaps, in
the desert Panhandle region of north
west Texas, and in the Yellowstone

President Mckinley because we so loved
and honored him; and the manner of his
death should awaken in the breasts of our
people a keen anxiety for the country, and
at the same time resolute purpose not to
be driven by any calamity from the path
of strong, orderly, popular liberty which
as nation we have thus far safely trod.
''Yet in spite of this great disaster, it is
nevertheless true that no people on earth
have such abundant cause for thanksgiving
as we have. The past year in particular
has been one of peace and plenty. We
have prospered in things material and have

Has Treaty with Him,


London, Nov. 4.-The first official
statement of any kind made for a
month. in relation to the Nicaragua
canal has been obtained by the press.
1t confirms the fact that Lord Paunce-
fote, the British ambassador to the
United States, who landed in New
York Saturday, has with him the
draft of new treaty, abrogating the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, which is in
every particular satisfactory to Lord
Salisbury's cabinet. Since represen-
tative of the press interviewed Lord
Pauncefote in London not one word
officially authorized has been given
out here with reference to the canal.
The editorials which have appeared
in England have been based entirely
upon dispatches from the United
States. This is explained by the
rather astonishing announcement
that all negotiations up to the pres
ent day have been entirely unofficial
from strictly diplomatic point of
view, and that on pourparlers only
depend the hopes generally shared for
successful bridging over of the
diplomatic difficulty. These pourpar-
lers, however, have been particularly
searching.
The state department does not re-
quire to see copy of the important
document Lord Pauncefote carries in
order to learn it's terms, though, Off
cially, negotiations will emily COM
mence when the ambassador reaches
Washington. Until that time the ex-
act conditions of the new convention
are withheld.
Though it is admitted that Great
Britain has agreed to put the Clayton
Bulwer treaty to one side and to ac-
quiesce in the construction of the
canal by and under the control of the
United States, this concession from
Lord Lansdowne's original contention
has not been granted without some
real or fancied advantage to Great
Britain. 1t would not be fair to saw
that a quid pro quo constituted the
main feature of the protracted pour
parlers, but that it will directly or in
directly result, is firmly established in
the minds of the members of the cab
met.
Never Objected to Canal.
One of the most responsible officials
connected with these and the earlier
negotiations, said:
1--WE never really objected to the con-
struction of the canal. but we did and do
