New York, Sept. 17-For hours yes
terday New York, Long Island and the
New Jersey coast opposite were swept
by the fercest wind and rainstorm ex-
perienced in many years. Two million
dollars, at rough estimate, will not
cover the damage to property. The
coast is strewn with wrecks of steamers,
schooners, barges, tugs and pilot boats.
As far as known GA persons were killed
in the city or along the coast.
President in Danger.
One of the notable features of the gale
was the fact that for several hours the
life of President Roosevelt was in ex
IRENE danger He was on board the
yacht Sylph with his wife and friends
on his way from Oyster Bay to Ellis
Island. and the little naval craft, not
built to withstand the furies of an ocean
gale, was saved only by the superior sea-
manship of it's commander and crew.
So furious: was the storm that it sunk
stanch. ocean tug within. sight of the
presidents yacht, but the little Sylph,
although nearly capsized several times,
rode out the gale and landed it's passen-
gers in safety in Brooklyn.
= Inspects Ellis Island
The president visited Ellis island and
after inspecting the immigrant station
he told Commissioner Of immigration
Sargent that no country in the world
cared for its prospective citizens as did
the United States officials and employees
on Ellis island. Incidentally he gave the
baby of an alien immigrant SIS, and in
terested himself in the case of an ex-
cluded woman, who will probably be adj
mitted to this country as a result of the
presidents inquiries.
Incidents of the Storm.
Among some of the striking incidents
OF the gale were the following:
The schooner Hattie A. Marsh wrecked
off Delaware Breakwater, Del, and Capt.
Mehaffy and four of the crew drowned.
The ocean-going tug Spartan foun-
dered in Delaware bay. Five of the crew

Canadian Irritation,

The Canadian commissioners en-
phasized their dissatisfaction with the
findings of the majority of the Alaska
boundary commission by walking out
of the court room before the decision
was signed. Their dissatisfaction, of
course, is with Lord Alverstone and
the British government, for the Amer
lean members of the commission In
standing for the American contention,
have done nothing more than the
Canadians have in standing for theirs.
By their course now the Canadian
commissioners are in large measure
neutralizing the, just criticism of our
government in not appointing to the
commission men removed from active
politics. They have, to say the least,
been disrespectful to Lord Alverstone,
who was the one member of the COM
mission whose environment was such
that there was reason to believe that
he would be tolerably free from
prejudice. --'
The net result of the settlement Of
the boundary dispute is a strengthen
ing Of 'Anglo-Anerican relations and
a weakening Of eAnglo7Canadian rela-
tons: The whole has been sort; of
Anglo-American love feast, as a
Canadian correspondent described the
Pilgrim dinner in London last
Wednesday evening, with the Canadi-
ans occupying an obscure back seat
Canadians who attended that dinner
complained because the Canadian
representatives We're, seated SO fa1
from the head Of the table. -. -
We hope that there will be no ;un
toward elation over the decision il

merely trying to get the best the!

very. little Of value in that respect, a

States. Our people have been con

The Moral.

That is a. great grief that has come
to JudgefDaniel Buck of Mankato.zssTo
lose in old age the greater part Of for
tune, and that thru the criminal act
Of a son, is a hard blow.
The reports say that the son was
led to appropriate the moneys belong
ing to his bank as we'll as to his father
because Of the Unsuitable demands
upon him of some Chicago blackmail-
ers. AS the price of immunity from
exposure of something he was
ashamed Of the young man has in the
last twelve years put up 100000. III
OF course blackmail is no excuse for
his offense. The means he took of
satisfying the demands of the black
mailers merely demonstrated his
weakness and selfishness. Rather than
suffer himself, he was willing to risk
the fortune and security of his father
and the good name Of the. bank and
the deposits of it's patrons.
r. Young Mr.. Buck. was confronted by
a. situation which demanded only
strength and courage and possibly
some shame and humiliation. He did
not have the strength or the courage.
He sheltered himself behind others
made his troubles theirs and in the
end met shame and humiliation and
overwhelmed his aged father in the
same mire with himself.
It always pays to be brave.

ranged in the first seventh of their class,
one in seven is i'll Who's Who, as against
one In sixteen for the, rest Of the class,

This ought not TO- surprise. any one. High

to be ADLER as we'll as more diligent.
Mr.. Lowell has gone farther and tried

to the testimony Of conservative New

the big financial combinations, the
situation outside New York is not af-

may be expected In mercantile trading.
there is no reason to look for a period
of general depression. He quoted a
letter from an officer Of one of the
strongest banks in Kansas, saying:
"The stock situation in New York has
been much of a surprise to US in the
west, who deal in tangible things. The
country was never more prosperous
than now and the demand for money
is a very legitimate one, growing out
of, the increase of business and the
general increase in the cost Of COM

is the supreme business virtue and
necessity. at the present time, as 1t
