five minutes, he went to the registration

the Presidents Envoy.

rotary of War, passed eight and a half
hours in New York Saturday. five with
J. Pierpont Morgan on the latter's
yacht, in the North river. He would
make no statement other than to say
that he came here to register so that he
could vote for Governor Odell.
The belief was general, however, and
was supported by developments follow
ing his arrival that Mr.. Root came here
to communicate a strike untimatum
from President Roosevelt TO Mr.. Nor
gan. It was declared that at no other
time has Mr.. Morgan manifested the
interest in the coal strike that he ex-
hibited after he and Secretary Root had
conferred. He talked earnestly with the
secretary, seemed impatient to see him
about his business, whatever it may
have BEEN and left his yacht in a pour

Union League club men, who were

known At the temporary White House
the officials said there absolutely
nothing to say for the press on the coal
strike situation.
Senator Quay of Pennsylvania saw the
president for an hour Saturday and at the
close of the conference the statement was
made that there was nothing to say" OF
course it was known that the senator
came to discuss the strike situation, but
what information he conveyed or what
suggestions he received can not be stated.
The senator departed Immediately after
the conference for Philadelphia.
Little informa ton as 20 the strike situa-

they have divided the country into dig

New Buildings at Fort Riley.

Junction City, Kan, Oct. 13.-The con-
structing quartermaster at Fort Riley has
received a notice from the department
to have specifications printed and adver-
tise for bids for the construction of two
double sets Of non-eommissioned staff Of
ficers' quarters. The construction of these
buildings will cost about $1,000. They
were included in the list of buildings for
which bids were submitted several weeks
ago. but the contractors proposals were
rejected in only these two instances, on
account of the bids being too much in ex-
cess of the amount set aside by the army
board for their construction. When the
contracts for these quarters are let, g
buildings will have been added to Fort
Riley during the year. At present there
are over 400 laborers employed on build
ings in course of construction at post. and
this number will probably be increased to
about 800 when the work on the contracts

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 13-Much to the
satisfaction of coaches and undergrad
yates, the Harvard varsity eleven showed
some Improvement Saturday and defeated
the University of Maine on Soldiers field,
q to 0. The creditable playing of Harvard
was done in the second half, for the game
opened with about as poor a showing as
seen this season. The Maine boys, al
though much lighter in the line, were able
to hold their opponents for downs, and in
rushing the ball were able to get through
time and again. although the ground gain
ed this way was not many yards at time,
still it showed the weakness of Harvard.
