PRESIDENT DECIDES FOR m,il.!.
Government Cannot Accept Dictati9n
from Any Organization.

Government Cannot Accept Dictati@n
from Any Organization.
President Roosevelt refuses to disnies
Foreman w. A. Miller from the govern
ment printing Office because of the OBJ
iections of labor unions His decision,
which he said was final, was formally
announced Tuesday night at the White
House ut a conference with officials of
she American Federation of Labor. AT
che close of the conference a statement
vas given out to the press quoting the
President as saying to the labor leaders:
''As regards the Miller case, l have
little to add to what I have already said.
In dealing with it 1 ask you to remem-
Der that l am dealing purely with the
relation of the government to it's en-
ployes. l must govern my action by the
laws of the land, which l am sworn to
administer, and which differentiate any
case in which the government of the
United States is a party from all other
cases whatsoever.
''These laws are enacted for the bene-
fit of the whole people, and cannot and
must not be construed as permitting dis
elimination against some Of the peopke
I am President of all the people OF TIE
United States without regard to creetie
color birthplace, occupation or social
conditions. My aim is to do equal and
justice as among them all.
Gin the employment and dismissal OK
men in the government service l can no
more recognize the fact that a man does
or does not belong to a union as being
for or against him than l can recognize
the fact that he is a Protestant or a
Catholic, a Jew or a Gentle, as being for
Or against him.
"In the communications sent me by
various labor organizations protesting
against the retention of Miller in the
government printing office, the grounds
alleged are two-fold: (D That he Is a
hon-union man; .(2) that he is not person
ally fit.
'The question of his personal fitness
Is one to be settled In the routine of adj
ministrative detail, and cannot be al
lowed to conflict with or to complicate
she larger question of governmental dis
elimination for or against him or any
other man because he is or Is not q
member of a union.
''This is the only question now before
me for decision, and as to this my decis-
ion is final"

Slammed by Boys.

Inspired by the condition Of street
which, 1t Is said, the officials had neg
lected says a writer in Youths Com
panion, certain small boys in Maine
city called on each resident Of the
street and offered to clean the side
walk and roadway in front of his
house for one cent a week. Everybody
accepted the offer enthusiastically.
Most Of the boys paid IN advance.
The boys worked hard for two days,
hoeing, sweeping and carrying refuse
to the dump" nearly half mile
away. Then all of a sudden the regu-
lar city teams appeared, and when the
boys got home from school they found
their occupation gone. 1t Is shrewdly
suspected, however, that it was their
activity that shamed the street COM
missioner into coming round, and ev-
cry citizen who patronized the anna
teur brigade feels that he got his
cents worth. Therefore the word
goes out to try the scheme in other
communities With variations, 1t has
indeed been tried elsewhere, and
whether a street cleaning department
is lazy or only forgetful it has gener
ally worked well.

conspiracy to defraud the government.
The authorities have been especially
anxious to obtain indictments against
Barrett, who is held responsible for adj
mission to the mails of the get-rich-Quick
turf schemes. Tyner, it is said, gave
Barrett free hand in arranging and
passing upon these cases.
w. d. Doremuz is also indicted in con-
nection with sales of the Doremus stamp
canceling machines. There are addition
al bills against George w. Beavers and
State Senator George A. Greene of New
York. Harry c. Hallenback. of New
York. whose firm formerly held the con-
tract for supplying money order FORMS is
also among those indicted to-day. He is
charged with conspiracy to defraud, in
connection with John r. Metcalf. former
chief of the money order division, and
his son, Norman r. Metcalf. both of
whom have been previously indicted. An
additional bill was found against August
w. Machen. Other bills were not made
public, pending service by the officers.
General Tyner is paralyzed at his
home in Washington. He has been con-
nected with the postal service for years.
He was Postmaster General in 1S16-77,
afterWard First Assistant Postmaster
General and Assistant Attorney General.
He is nearly so years old and in serious
physical condition. Barrett who is in
dicted jointly with him, is his nephew,
and came from North Carolina. He was
assistant attorney until Dec. 81, when
he resigned. There are two indictments
against Tyner and three against Barrett.
Bond was fixed for Barrett in the sum
of $4,000 and for Tyner for $1,000, fur
nished in both cases by Scranton, Pa,
surety company.
Postmaster General Payne is now
awaiting the report Of Fourth Assistant
Bristow. The next steps will be the trial
of Machen in Washington and Attorney
Johns and Daniel Miller in Cincinnati.

PRESIDENT ESCAPES ASSASSIN.
Crazy Anarchist Attempts to Force
Way Past White House Guards.

Crazy Anarchist Attempts to Force
Way Past White House Guards.
President Roosevelt Monday narrowly
had a narrow escape from death at the
hands of a crazy anarchit who is now
locked up in the government insane asy-
lum. Only after a desperate struggle
was the man, who gave his name as Pc
ter Elliott and his home as Minneapolis,
ovcrpowerCd by the police and removed
from the White House
He had come from Minneapolis to
"take control of the government and it
is believed he had planned to assGSsinate
the President Sunday morning on his
way home from church. Elliott occupied
a seat in the gallery overlooking the pew
in which the President sat and left the
building just before the conclusion Of the
service and took up a position on the
sidewalk a few rods away.
When the President came out arI
walked briskly down the street Elliott
stepped suddenly forward. held out his
hand and said: Roosevelt shake hands
with Elliott"
Without slackening his pace the Presi-
dent raised his hat and held out his hand,
saying. Il am glad to see YOU" and pass
concerted by the Presidents manner and
had not the nerve to put his plan of muir
der into execution.
A little before noon Monday Elliott
entered the ve:tibule of the White House
and demanded to be admitted to see the

crazy and the attendants denied him adj
mission. He attempted to force his way
in and it was only after hard struggle
that he was overpowered and carried to
police van that had been summoned.
He was placed in the van in the custody
of two officers.
Seeming to realize then for the first
time that he was under arrest, Elicit
began the furious struggle with his cap
tors for liberty. He drew a revolver
from the right side pocket of his trous-
ers and attempted to shoot Officer James
Cissell. The officer grabbed his hand
and wrenched the weapon from him.
In the struggle in the van Elliott had
broken glass panel with his head, Sc
yerely cutting his head and face. Officer
Cissen sustained a serious cut on his
right arm The van was hurried to the
emergency hospital, where the injuries
Of both Cissell and Elliott were dressed.
