ARIZONA COWBOYS HOPED TO
SEE HIM WITH PRESIDENT
M'klNLEY,
WERE DELAYED TWO HOURS
Special Held on Account
of a. Loose Tire on One of the
Observation-Disclosures the Party Is
Given Rousing Welcome at Phoe-
nix-A Mixed and Wildly Enthusi-
astic Crowd.

Phoenix, A. T., May S-The presi-
Dental party spent an interesting day
In Arizona. The bright sunshine and
invigorating air afforded the party
much relief after the hot and dusty
ride. The two hours in the morning
at the Congress gold mine up in the
clouds of the Blue Tank mountains,
were replete with incidents and were
thoroughly enjoyed. Leaving the rich
mining section in the mountains, 1000
feet above sea level, the train dropped
down into the green Salt River valley,
With its waving alfalfa meadows and
big herds of CATTLE This valley is
called the garden spot of Arizona and
was reclaimed by irrigation.
. While passing through New Mexico
and Arizona, the COW punchers at the
stops along the route inquired vocif-
erously where "Teddy" was. Many
OF the vice presidents rough riders
during the Spanish war were recruited
IN this section and there was much
disappointment that he was not in
the party. On the way to Phoenix, the
tire OF one OF the wheels of the tender
became loose and for the first time
since the long journey began, the tele-
grapher with the train was compelled
to climb a telegraph pole to tap the
wire.
Rousing Welcome at Phoenix.
The accident to the tender delayed
the arrival of the train at Phoenix two
hours and somewhat disarranged the
programme there. Nevertheless, the
party received rousing welcome.
Governor Murphy and the territorial
officers had met the party at the Con-
gress mine and accompanied them
back to Phoenix. At the station the
territorial militia, a company of cow
boys on bronchos and some of the
friendly Pima and Maricopa Indians
joined in the wildly enthusiastic re.
ception. The party was driven to the
Adams hotel for luncheon and after
ward was escorted to the territorial
capitol, where the formal exercises
took place.
A drive afterward gave the presi-
dent a chance to see the interesting
ruins of the ancient Aztec irrigation
system. At the Indian industrial
school, four miles from Phoenix, the
party had glimpse of what is being
done IN the way Of education of the
wards of the nation. A pretty cere-
mony was enacted here for the benefit
OF the president. While an Indian
band played Hail Columbia" beau
tlful Indian maiden in pantomine
pleaded with a man dressed to repre-
sent Uncle Sam" for statehood for
the territory.

first action taken by the American
Ingot Mold company after taking con

Ministers Will Also Inquire What
Method of Payment Is. Proposed.
Numerous Trade Concessions Are
Expected as WeIl-UnabIe to Aqree
on Proposition to Open Entire En-.

HI = " ~OfIutOICCs
Picking, May. S.-The foreign min
listers have decided to address col.
lective note to the Chinese govern
ment informing it that a joint indem-
nifty of 450,000,000 taels would be de-
manded and asking what method of
payment is proposed. A reply is ex-
pected at the end of the week, which
will probably propose to meet the in
demnity by raising the customs tariff.
1t is considered likely that the pow
ers will consent to some such measure
in return for concessions on the part
of China in the shape of a total abol-
ition of the likin, the placing of import
duties on a gold basis, really free
navigation of Chinese waters and the
removal of impediments to navigation
and the tax at Woo Ching.
The ministers were unable to agree
as to the desirability of opening the
whole empire to trade and residence,
some of them holding that it would be
asking China to assume too great a
responsibility and under the present
system of government it would be
impossible to guarantee the safety of
numerous foreigners who would flock
into the interior if the empire were
entirely opened.

Cape Town, May S.-Sir Alfred Mil

dressing mass meeting, said there
was absolutely no reason for the anx-
iety felt in some quarters lest any
change be introduced in South Africa
that would in any way weaken the
imperial policy. Such a change was
impossible. Great Britain had made
up her mind and would carry out the
policy she had laid down.

President and Party Begin Their Tou
OF the Continent,

The train which is to carry President

their long excursion across the cont

from Washington.
The party included Secretary Gage,

White of the American embassy in
London, Commissioner of Pensions
Evans Comptroller Dawes, General

and many ladies of the cabinet circle.
Short speeches made by the President at
the towns and cities all along were full
of instruction and always applicable to
time and place. We quote several ex-
cerpts from them.
"May the young men of the State OF
Virginia prove worthy sons of their noble
ancestors and contribute in the future
as they did in the past to the we'll beir g.
and honor and glory of the republic
Let me assure you, young gentlemen

YANKEES NEED NOT APPLY.

Governor Chandler of Georgia should
familiarize himself with the amount OF
Northern capital invested in his State
before indulging in vulgar mistatements,
as was the case the other day when in
an interview with party of New
Workers and others, who were on trip
through the South to study the educa-
tional resources of the negroes, stopped
at Savannah, the bilious Governor re-
marked that the state was dotted all
over with negro colleges, and that the
South was able to educate the darkies
without any damned Yankee assist
ance."
He did not favor the education of The
negro in the higher arts, because it made
the negro unhappy with his surround
ings. Neither did he favor their employ
ment in factories or offices, because it
tended to the creation of race wars.
He favored teaching them the trades,
but thought agriculture the right field
for them.
Atlanta's welcome to the party did not
him. He added GO You know
made hero out of Sherman
when he went there"

WANTS SOLDIERS NAMES.

Adjutant General Oliphant has issued
circular in relation to the medals pro-
vided for by the last Legislature for the
survivors who answered the first call OF
the President for volunteers during the
war of the rebellion,
These medals will be given to the sur
vivors who enlisted at that time in the
New Jersey Brigade, consisting of the
First, Second, Third and Fourth Regi-
Inents.
In order that the number of medals
required may be ascertained, it is re-
quested that the survivors send their
names to Adjutant General Oliphant,
Trenton, N. j., at the earliest date pos
sible
The medals will be distributed under
orders from the Governor upon presen,
ia ion of discharges to General Donnel
ly. In the event of any survivor having
lost his discharge, certificate of service
may be obtained from the adjutant
general.

TIE important subjects that will be
dealt with by the new Board of Alder
men render the charter election one OF

wise and conservative, and at the same
time, progressive manner. Ii the town

REGULATING SPEED OF AUTOS

The authorities of East Orange are
about to adopt rules and regulations for
the government of the speed and run
ming of automobiles through that city,
and it is expected that the Essex county
freeholders will soon take similar action
This style of vehicle is making its ap-
pearance everywhere, and is under nc
regulations, so that the drivers rush
through city and country at breakneck
speed, making it very dangerous for
both pedestrians and the occupants OF
other vehicles. 1t is not long before an
automobilist becomes SO accustomed to
great speed that he really does not APP
preciate the gait he is travelling or the
danger he is to others 1t is probable
that the speed will be limited to about
eight miles an hour in cities and twelve
miles in the country, and that will be a
snails pace compared with the way
they have been going.
