OUR SENATORS AND THE PRESIDENT
In closest Relations TO One Another.
High Tribute Paid to Scott.

Senators Elkins and Scott called at
the white house Saturday to pay their
respects TO the new President. The
visit, by the wish of President Roose-
welt, became more than mere call,
and as result the future status Of
both the senators at the white house
was settled. During the interview,
the President told both that he de-
sired most earnestly to carry out the
policy of President Mckinley, and said
he would expect their support. Then
he turned to Senator Scott and said:
"Now. Senator. | appreciate fully
and know thoroughly the warm per-
sonal and political relations existing
between you and the late President
Mckinley. appreciate how he relied
on YOU, perhaps next to Mr., HANNA
more than upon anyone else in the
land. knowing all this, Senator,
won't you stand in the same friendly
relations with me that you did with
him? 1t is my sincere desire to have
you do so, and assure you, so far as
political matters are concerned, shall
expect Senator Hanna and yourself,
and other members OF the republican
executive committee, TO be my advis-
ors.n
Senator Elkins assured the President
during the interview, Of his cordial CO.
operation, and congratulated him
upon the early stand he had taken in
support of the late Presidents policy.

church on Water street at 2 p. M
Thursday afternoon of last week to
hold memorial services in honor'of the
nations sacred martyr, the late VIM.
Mckinley.
The meeting was called to order and
opened by singing "Nearer Ny God
To Thee"
Elder Watson recited the Lords
prayer in concert with the audience.
The choir then rendered feelingly

tion and Elder j. E. Morris Of the A.
NJ. E. church read the 9th Psalm.
Prof. Robinson continued the worship
with a feryent prayer for Gods pro-
lection in the nations sorrow.
The choir then very aptly rendered
"God Moves in a Mysterious Way"
after which ElderJ. L. Howard dis
cussed president Mckinley as a
man.
The elder took up tie late Presi-
dents life as a boy, soldier and a
citizen. He discussed at some length
the many admirable traits Of his char.
acter, all Of which showed the gradual
steps that made him the master mind
OF the century.
Elder Jas. H. Watson then ably dis
cussed Mckinley as Christian, be-
ginning at the late Presidents early
life. He told Of the precepts and prin-
clples instituted by his Christian
mother; how these led him early to
embrace Christianity and this Chris
tianity was his guiding star on the
battle field, in the legislative halls, as
governor Of a great state, and as Presi-
dent OF the greatest nation on earth.
The Rev. ]. Z. Morris discussed Nc
Klnley as statesman. Among other
things he held up to prominence his
position on the taiilT, his love for jus.
tice and law while governor, and his
impeachable position on the recent
wars and his noble efforts for the prog.
resS of the laborinp classes.
Prof. Robinson then discussed the
lessons learned from the life Of the
late President. Prof. Robinson brought
out the idea. that all youth should
take advantage of every opportunity
10 embrace an education as Mckinley
did while boy.
He showed that the American youth
should learn patriotism from the life
OF our lat President, who began to
serve his country at the early age of Is.
Hebrew a beautiful lesson of tilial de-
votion from Mckinley; love for his
mother, and forclbly impressed this
idea upon the hearts of his audience.

report on the work of that depart

ground that they contained exhaust

the samples were found to have been

diluted or by the illegal addition of
sugar. The present year shows an
increase of Life samples. but the re-
suit of the analyses, generally. af'
fords no evidence of any falling off
in the practice of diluting beer.
The quantity of tobacco cleared for
home consumption and the average
amount consumed per head were ST.

SO.955.031 pounds and pound 1874
ounces in 1900. and s3,jGl,0s3 pounds

cites are remarkable as showing how
increasingly popular is the practice
of smoking cigarettes. and they also
show that the consumption OF british
made cigars is increasing abroad.
Eleven aGultcrated samples of to-
bacco were found to contain l:coricc
or glycerine.
Legal proceedings were taken in

amounted to e3,76G, in addition to

For diluting o. adulterating beer

The considerable increase in the
number of samples examined for the
home Office was largely due to the
work in progress in connection with
the use of lead compounds in the
manufacture of pottery. The total
samples examined under this head
numbered 1875. of which 81 samples
were fruits submitted by various
firms under home office regulations

BUSINESS FEATURES.

According to Dun, car shortage has
become the chief retarding force in the
commercial field, indicating that they
are fully employed.
The most prominent development in
the business world Of Boston the past
week has been the extraordinary ac-
tiyity in wool. 1t is estimated that the
heaviest weeks business is the history
of the trade has been closed, conserva-
tive authorities placing the aggregate
transactions as close to 20.G00,O00
pounds There has been no speculation,
the buying having been wholly con-
fined TO the mills. some of the largest
have been ready to meet this trade on
about the price basis quoted for some
weeks. There has been no advance
either since the gales werec losed. 1t is
said that profits on the cost of the wool
last spring have been extremely mar
row--in fact that a good portion of the
business has been at cost. In other
departments of trade there has been no
change to speak of. Money is easy.
At Pittsburg the only change in the
iron and steel market is a further
strengthening of conditions. Pig iron
is particularly active and the furnaces
have business ahead to keep running up
to the close of the year. During the
week, Bessener pig iron producers
