WILL FOLLOW M,I<INLEy,s POLICY.
Mr.. RocseveIt VIII Take the Buffalo
Speech as His Guide.

Associated Press Dispatch.
WASHINGTON. Sept. II. - President
Roosevelt at 3 o'clock to-day, convened his
first Cabinet meeting held in Washington.
At this meeting the President asked the
members OF Mr.. McKinleys Cabinet to re-
tain their respective portfolios throughout
his term, aud announced that his admin
istration would follow the policy outlined
by President Mckinley in his Buffalo
speech.
After the obsequies over the late Presi-
dent the Cabinet, at President Roosevelt's
request, assembled at the residence of Com
mander Cowles. where the President is
staying until after the funeral, principally
for the purpose of informing their new
chief of the state of affairs in their re-
spective departments. The President de-
sired to learn if there were any matters of
moment requiring mis- attention before his
departure tonight for Canton. He was as
sured there was nothing of pressing i'm
portance. The President met his advisers
collectively. as he had previously done in
dividualIy. requesting them all TO retain
their respective positions in his Cabinet.
Mr. Roosevelt expressed the hope and ex-
pectation that every member would serve
throughout his term, for. he said, he ten
dered the appointments If he had just
been elected to the presidency and was
forming original Cabinet. The Presi-
dent, said. however. there was one differ
ence between the present tender and that
OF original offer. namely: Under the
present circumstances they were not at
liberty To decline. Upon being asked by a
member If designations should be formally
presented in the usual manner. the Presi-
dent answered that his action at this meet
ing had precluded the necessity of present.

The discussion turned or the policy OF the
administration. and Mr.. Roosevelt an

late President at the Buffalo Pan-American
Exposition the day before he was shot as
outlining the policies of his own admins

GERMANS DISCUSS ROOSEVELT.

BERLIN, Sept. 1.-THE German press de-
votes considerable attention TO President
ROosevelt's declaration OF policy, express
ing great satisfaction with his adoption of
the utterances of the late President Nc
Kinley as to reciprocity. I'VE hope" says
the Lokal Anzeiger. that he will succeed
in placing the economic relations of the
United States and Europe on a secure ba-
sis and develop the same"
The kleine Journal observes: This dec
laration inaugurates a new era in the eco
nOmic history Of the United States-an era
of tariff concessions TO Europe"
Mr.. ROosevelt's remarks with reference
10 promoting the transportation facilities
with South America are widely commented
upon. They deserve the greatest atten-
tion, says the National Zeitung, since
the commercial interests of the United
States I'm South America are opposed to
those of Germany, which has found i'm
portant and valuable market there"
The Berlin Tageblatt also points out the
danger to Germany of Mr. Roosevelts rec
concentration.
The Vossische Zeitung concludes a long
editorial follows: "All in all, President
Roosevelt favors an extension Of the eco
nOmic powers of the United States in all di-
rections, and OF its political power on the
American continent"
The National Zetung summarizes the
Presidents character as follows He is

Feeding Wheat to stock.

Kansas Experiment Station Bulletin.
The almost unprecedented drought of the
present season, which bids fair TO cut the
corn crop down TO next to nothing, but
which began late enough to allow the pro-
duction of a large crop of wheat, is turn
ing the attention of farmers to the posi-
bility of feeding wheat in place of corn. a
number of considerations must be kept IN
view. The kernels being much smaller than
those of corn, there is much more danger or
their escaping mastication and passing out

animals with smaller mouths there Is leSs

TO the greater consumption OF whole gram

tant disadvantage in feeding. in that II Is

greater than that of corn; it can be best
utilized by feeding it ground or crushed,
and mixed to a certain extent with oats,
corn or kafir corn; it may be fed advan-
tageously to horses, cattle, hogs, sheep or
poultry. In discussing the feeding value of
wheat the grain only has thus far been
in mind In this year of extreme scarcity
of rou6hage. it may not be amiss to inject
a word Of suggestion that wheat straw is
much better than nothing. and that in all

WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.-At the Cab
met meeting this evening President Roose-
welt reaffirmed his declaration that he de-
sired every member of the Cabinet to re-
main with him and feel that their appoint
rnent was just as permanent as though he
had been elected President. This second
announcement. together with the private
statements of senators and other public
men who have just returned from Buffalo,
combine TO show that President Roosevelt
IS earnestly trying to give satisfactory pub
lie assurance that he is following in method
the policy and course so ably mapped out
by his immediate predecessor. 1t is said he
recognized the death of Mckinley was
great commercial shock to the country,
and that II was his duty TO cause healthy
and vigorous reaction as quickly as posi-
BILE He saw that it was essential there be
no disturbance in the cordial relations
which existed between the world of bust
ness and the government.
With the direct announcement that all
the Cabinet officers would remain came the
further special assurance that Secretary
Gage would be retained. and. if it became
necessary for him 70 withdraw for reasons
personal to himself. he would be succeeded
a
tory to the important business interests
which have been so pleased with the treas
ury management given by Secretary Gage.
In addition to this. it was made clear to
important business interests which had
been so prominent and forecful in support
ing Mckinley that President Roosevelt
wanted continuance of their confidence.
and that he expected to merit that by TAX
ing so far as his ability and strength
would permit, to his heart the fulfillment
and promise OF the man they had elected.
1t was recognized in Washington that a
continuance in office of the Mckinley Cab
met might not mean the continuance of the
Mckinley methods and purposes. 1t was not
until the arrival of the senators and other
public men from Buffalo last night and this
morning that Washington realized that
President Roosevelt was already making
rapid progress along the lines of the Nc
Kinley policy and that the terse promise in
the brief speech he made when he took the
oath of office being rapidly fulfilled.
