 Washington. Feb. 19.--The annual ban quet of the Department of the Potomac. Grand Army of tho Republic. was given at the New Willard Hotel tonight Presi- dent Roosevelt, Secretary Wilson and General Terrence. the Commander-in- chief of the Grand Army, were among the guests. si
 There was a wild demonstration of ap- piause when the President arose to speak The President said there was nothing else of which he was quite as proud as of having won the right to claim comradeship with those assem- bled. He would be. he said. but quite poor American if he did not apprectake to the full extent the debt under which America rests to them.
 The war in which he had been engaged, the President said. was mighty small war. but at any rate 1t had given him an idea of what had been done by his comrades and what they mad gons through.
 The President referred to that type of of men which existed tn'the Grand Army regafdless of social condi- tons and declared that we have to apply in the civil life of our nation exactly the principles that obtain in the Grand Army of the Republic. Feeling referencs was made to President Mckinley. and in this connection the President said;
 You wore the blue in the early six- ties, a war against anarchy in one form, a war for liberty; and so now it behooves each of us so to do his duty as citizen that he shall in the most effective way wage war against the spirit of anarchy"

Another Day Goes BY Without Ex-
pectcd Attack OF Hostile Fleet.
,Rockport, Mass. Aug. %. At mid
night thirty-six hours had passed Of the
possible 120 for the naval conflict be-
tween the attacking squadron In charge
of Commander Pillsbury and the de-
Tending squadron commanded by Rear
Admiral Higginson. The coming OF
another day was recorded, but the an
ticipated meeting between the hostile
fleets had not come to pass. After q
Gay which had been on the whole de-
void of any sensations, the night, thick
and cloudy as it was, with the moon
quite obscured, developed so many con-
fusing situations and so many extra
ordinary reports that the Higginson
squadron had just cause for grave un-
easiness. Somehow the feeling grew
that it would not be such a difficult at
tainment after all for three auxiliary
cruisers of the white squadron to slip
in and anchor ct some harbor, pro-
tected as they would be by the inviting
darkness which prevailed. In the early
part of the night the station at the
Isle of Shoals, notified the nearest
mainland point by the use of torches
and the secret code of the navy that
large, strange two-masted craft had
been sighted outside the shoals. Adj
rniral Higginsons wonderful system OF
signals worked to perfection. Almost
in a moment, it seemed, the destroyer
Decatur was was rocketed from Ports
mouth to put in to pursue the mysteri-
Gus conner, and in another moment the
Decatur, with the smoke belching from
her four great stacks, was blowing
furiously through the heavy seas. The
stranger turned and fled at full speed,
and this fact led to the decision that
she may have been one of the attacking
feet passi ag onward on scout duty. AT
a later hour the Decatur had made no
report .-..

Rockport, Mass, Aug. 23.-1n the light
OF the knowledge gained in those hot.
anxious days at Santiago four years
ago. that readiness and watchfulness
are half the battle, the officers and men
Of Admiral Higginson's home defense
squadron are keeping as keen look
out for the appearance of Commander
Pillsbury's supposedly hostile naval
force as they did for Cervera in 1898.
During the early part of last evening
the conditions were ideal for an at
tempt by Pillsbury to carry out his part
of the war problem. A thunderstorm,
which came up about Rockport's supper
time. left behind it heavy pail Of fog
that cnv eloped the town shore and
made it hard to distinguish large OBJ
iects. Shortly after 8 O'Clock the mist
lifted. the moon and the stars came out
and Pillsbury's best chance was gone.
He only has two more nights within
which TO attempt landing. II he has
not established a base ashore by noon
on Monday he will lose the game.

the president was greeted by 10000
workingmen, who presented him with
magnificent floral horseshoe inscribed:
''Workingmen's welcome to our presl-

Father Michael Sullivan made few
remarks of welcome, in which he COM
lnerded the
Honesty and Sincerity
Of purpose of the president in all his
acts. The president responded, and his
remarks were frequently interrupted
by applause. He said:
Father Sullivan: I came here to say
few words myself, but nothing that
can say will in any way have the sig
nificance that the gift from the wage
workers of Hartford has. I should, OF
course be wholly untitled for the posi-

thought and best purpose to trying 10

manifested by them when the president
alluded to the rights of the toiler
aroused the keenest interest. Again
and again during his predatory re-
marks which were based on the after
rcon-tha presentation of a floral horse
shoe by the workingmen-the president
was interrupted by vociferous applause.
Such side remarks as the following:
II do not care how honest a man may
be, if he is timid he is no good,' evoked
loud laughter. Again, in speaking OF
the isthmian canal, he aroused mirth by
saying that one of the problems in coa-

Wall streets estimate at noon yester-
day Of the losses sustained by John w.
Gates and his coterie up to that hour
through their attempt to secure control
of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company.
When Gates plotted his big gamble
his intention was to GUST Chairman
Osgood and the latter's board Of d.
lectors at the; annual meeting on Aug.
20, take over control of the property
and turn 1t into the United States Steel
corporation at q. pretty advance over
the price he and his associates had paid
for control. ~,
All this was calculated to send the
market skyrocketing, and there were
millions in it for the Chicago crowd,
who had loaded UP with 100000 shares Of
the common stock. But this time The

Others in Power Suit. 4
New York, Aug. 2S.-Lawyer George
Alfred Lamb, attorney for Peter Power,
went on the stand yesterday and told
all he knew about the Northern Pacific
merger suit. He named the men who,
with Power as plaintiff and Capt. Hen
ry Stern as go-between, he said, had
hoped to conceal their connection with
the litigation and keep their identity
| hidden. These he named were w.
Bourke Cochran, Camille Weidenfeld.
H. Content & Co. and Edwin r.
Thomas of the firm of Thomas & Post,
Wall street bankers and brokers. The
story of Powers wandering came out
and plan to send him to Europe was
revealed as was his quasi-connection
with tine suit at issue. Lamb said that
he was practically forced by the people
back Of him to send Power away and
that they paid the expenses of his trip
to West Hurley and to Montreal. Peter
Power himself was en- the stand al the
afternoon session. In a measure his
testimony was corroborative of that
given by Lawyer Lamb regarding the
connection of Messrs Cochran and
Weidenfeld with the suit.

Made Immune for Eight Months by
New Discovery.
Indiana polls, Aug. %. - The eastern
Fart OF Indiana has been ravaged by
hog cholera for two months. A remedy
has been discovered by DR.. Frederick
Kelnmer of Wayne county and applied
to more than 400 hogs in the last ten
days, and not hog SO treated has died.
Or. kemmer describes the remedy as
an anti-toxiae made for the cholera
germ. The germ is isolated, dried and
pulverized. A fluid is made of this
powder and it is injected into the hog
to antagonize the poison of the cholera.
I'r. Kemmer says that the hog is then
immune from cholera for eight months,
when the operation ought to be re-
peated. He says that the medicine does
not have any bad effect on the meat.
