Washington, Oct. 1S.-Whether the
presidents dinner for Booker T. Wash
ington will have any effect on the south
remains to be seen. but it is very ap-
parent from the vicious and cutting utter
ances of representative southern news
paper this morning that the old-time
prejudice against the negro is still run
ming at full tide, and that Roosevelt. has
mortally offended many influential south
ern people who have been saying they
were ready to lend him cordial aid in his
work Of conciliation. The president be-
lieves that the storm will blow over in a
day, and he may be right, but he has
touched the pride of the south at its ten
derest point, and it is not strange there
Is squirming.
In Washington it is believed that only
southern radicals are taking part in the
denunciation Of the president, and that
as the sign of this element is on the de-
cline, the agitation will be shortlived and
that the Booker Washington dinner will
have a good effect in the south rather
than a bad one. There are scores Of
widely differing opinions regarding the
matter. Every southern man in this city,
more or less vigorously condemned the
presidents at; every northern man in
dorses 1t, and many of the latter demo-
Gratis.
If the incident is to have a practical
political bearing it may be shrewdly
guessed that the negro vote in the north
will be more reliably republican than ever
before. There was no practical politics
in the dinner, however. The president
simply exercised his rights as an Ameri-
can citizen and regarding the table at the
White House as his own. invited accord
ingly. 1t is said that Booker T. Wash

that brilliant intellect which had made
Governor Pillsbury one Of the foremost
citizens of Minnesota; and during the past
two weeks, even while temporarily con-
scious, the governor failed to realize the
seriousness of his illness.
Governor Pillsbury's death was. in re-
atty the result of a combination of dis
eases. The trouble began with an attack
of whooping cough about a month ago.
During a severe spell Of coughing, one
of the veins of his head was strained. 1t
became enlarged and clot of blood
formed. Then Bright's disease, from
which the governor had been a sufferer for
years, became aggravated, and these two
causes, coupled with a weakened heart
action, due largely to the extreme age
of the sick man. finally proved too much
for him to throw off,
The Bright's disease was a trouble of
long standing. 1t first became serious
FIVE years ago, when the governor was so
ill at one time that his recovery was
doubted. He rallied, however, and recov-
cred from the attack; but was never again
entirely well; although, up to a month
ago, he was apparently in better health
than he had been for several years.
Mrs. Pillsbury is bearing up wonderful
ly well under the shock of her husbands
death. The news that he could not re-
cover was broken to her as gently as
possible yesterday morning, and conse-
quently she was prepared, in measure,
for the end. She herself has been far from

John S. Plllsbury is dead.

John S. Pillsbury is dead
The end came at seventeen minutes be-
fore three o'clock this morning, the gov
ernor never regaining consciousness
Around his bedside were all the members
OF his immediate family, but he knew
them not. Even the presence of his wife
failed to awaken him from the coma into
which he fell ten days ago, and from
which he never recovered.
The last person to whom Governor Pills
bury spoke was his son, Alfred, who had
come hurrying back from Europe advised
by cable of his fathers serious Illness
Their greeting was affectionate, but
brief. The governor welcomed his son
and grasped him by the hand. Then he
again relapsed into Inconsistencies; and
after that never spoke an intelligible
word
He had been confined to his bed since
September 20, but it was not until yester-
day morning that all hope Of his recovery
was abandoned. The turn for the worse
developed Wednesday night and from that

Thursday morning DR.. w. A. Jones, the
attending physician, told the family that
he could no longer extend any hopes of his
distinguished patients recovery.
Up to that time Mrs. Pillsbury had clung
to her belief that her husband would gel
well. He had been very low before and
had rallied, and she hoped that he would
do so again. That hope. however, was
destined never to be realized. The gov
enor became weaker and weaker and
finally passed into that last sleep from
which there is no awakening in this world
AT no time did the governor realize that
his condition was serious. The immedi-
ate cause of his death was the enlarge
ment of vein in the head, and it's pres
sure upon the brain. This served to cloud

TUNNEL CAVE-IN
Unknown Number of WOrImen Lose
Their Lives.

New York, Oct. 1S.-Fifty tons Of rock
caved in the rapid transit tunnel at
One Hundred and Sixty-seventh street and
Broadway, to-day, carrying death to an
undetermined number of men who were at
work below the surface. The known dead
are:
Peter O'Hara, aged 65; Daniel Kelle-
her, aged so; Luigi Dahise, agedA: Pat
Foreman Madden was found pinned
down by tons Of broken rock, only the
feet being clear of the mass of debris.
Many of the other workmen were i'm
prisoned in small chamber of the exca-
vation and their fate will not be known
until the rescuers, who are digging toward
them, reach the point where they are en-
tombed. They are 11O feet under ground.
1t was estimated by some of the engineers
that there was air enough in the cave to
keep the imprisoned men alive for several
hours. The engineers decided that the
only way to get to the cave-in was to tun-
mel around the rock which had fallen.

WASHINGTON SURPRISED
Heaviest Blows Seem to Fall Upon
the Ninth Infantry.

Washington, Oct. 1S.-The war depart
ment officials were somewhat dismayed
at the press report of the new setback in
Samar. They had no confirmation from
official sources Of the report, but this was
true Of the last affair of the kind which
happened at Balangiga. The Ninth in
fantry, which suffered there, was the same
organization that engaged in the latest
fight at Bangajon, though in this case the
company attacked is not known.

ington has been a Roosevelt table guest
at Oyster Bay and in New York city on
several occasions. 1t is the presidents
way Of doing things. He is deeply inter-
ested in Booker T. Washington's work and
believes in him as a man. 1t is hinted
that this incident may put quietus ON
numerous plans that have been under way

president to be the guest of leading citi-
zens He Is expected to attend the
Charleston exposition this winter, al
though no promises have yet been made,
and elaborate plans have been under dis
cussion for entertaining him at the most
aristocratic homes of the city. Already
there is faint indication that the Booker
Washington affair may call for radical
revision of these plans.
Washington is said to be the first coll
ored person entertained at the White
House with the possible exception of the
late Senator Bruce of Mississippi. The
latter was often at the White House with
his wife during the winter season, but it
is said he was never at large public din
ner, although he may have been asked to
dine quietly with the President. Fred
erick Douglass often called at the White
House to see the president, but no at
tache of the mansion recalls that he was
ever dined there. Douglass was taken to
his mission of Haiti by United States
warship sailing from Hampton Roads, and
the officers then on the vessel have not
recovered yet from the shock they felt
when hearing of the detail and the service
the ship was put to. Mr.. Blaine was re-
sponsible for the order.

Roosevelt Mckinley was a sphinx. Roose-
welt is a talker. He thinks aloud. If he
were less honest and straightforward he
would get himself into hot water every
ten minutes. The president thinks out
his policies on horseback. Almost every
day he goes riding and there Nis always
someone with him to whom he can talk.
And he talks all the way. With one hand
he holds the reins and the other is busy
gesturing. His voice is clear and strong
and he can be heard for rods. He does all
the talking, and his companion, whoever
1t may be, does all the listening. It ID
