WHY TIE MEN DON'T PROPOSE.
BY Hefen OfdfieIC

There is no denying the fact that men. even
more than women are less inclined to marriage
than formerly. Prudence enters more ana more
into matrimonial calculations Young people
wish to begin where their fathers and mothers
left off and when it is out of the question that
they should do so. hesitate to begin at all. The
laboring classes may be ready and willing to wed
as soon as the man has accumulated the 500 for

Rome, June 25.-The public consis.
tory which was postponed from June

Additional interest is attached to it
because of the condition of His Rever.
ence Pope Leo, for in spite of the re-
assuring news concerning the pope's
health many persons believed that this
would be the last consistory under Lee

venerable pontiff with intense curiosity
and there was redoubled enthusiasm
in the cries of: Long Live Pope Leo
He looked little more waxlike, lit
tie more bowed, his voice somewhat
thinner than usual and it was evident
his attendants were anxious.

WILL SEND IT
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL
FORWARD PETITION REGARD.
ING JEWS TO RUSSIA.


Washington, June 25.-The Presi
dent after mature consideration has
declded to transmit to the Russian
government the petition presented to
MN by the executive council of the
B,Na1 Birth, regarding the treatment
OF the Jews in Russia. The presenta
tlon OF the petition will probably be
through the United States consul at
st. Petersburg.
Changes His Mind.
AT first it was decided that the peti.
ton should not be presented because
1t might be resented by Russia and
might lead to response that will
cause a break in the relations of the
two countries. However, the first con-
clusion has been reconsidered. What
the result will be is problematical.

FORMER oTTuMWAN TENDERS
HIS RESIGNATION.
INDICATES A CHANGE
RcckefeIIer-eouId interests Seem to
Have Control of Colorado Fuel &
Iron co.-ossood Says He Will Re-
tain His Interests in Concern.

The resignation of J. C. Osgood, for
merly OF Ottumwa, from the director
ate Of the Colorado Fuel &c Iron Co.
| and the action of the Rockefeliers ant
their kin in stepping into the places
vacated by the Ottumwan, whose figh1
with John w. Gates for the control
OF the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co., q
few months ago was watched with in
terest all over the country and especi
ally in this city, has been for naught
and that in spite of mis- efforts, the
company has gone over to the control
OF the Rockefeller-Gould interests.
New York, June 25.-J. C. Osgood
presented his resignation as chairman
OF the board of directors of the Colo
rado Fuel & Iron Co., at the monthly
meeting of the directors yesterday The
designations of Directors Cass and Je-
rome were rendered and accepted at
the same time.
Mr.. Osgood is succeeded as chair
man by j. M. McClement, and these
directors were selected: f. T. Gates,
John d. Rockefeller, Jr., and E. Parme-
lee Prentice. The latter is son-in-law
OF the senior John D. Rockefeller and
Mr.. Rockefeller and Mr. Gates were
elected to fill the vacancies in the ex-
ecutive committee Today's changes
in the company are accepted as facts
that the Rockefeller Gould interests
are in complete control.
Reason For Action.
In his letter of resignation Mr.. Os.
good stated that he was led to take
thls step in view of the fact that
large interests in the stock and se-
curltles OF the company had been ac-
quired by those who should have
greater responsibility from this time
in directing the policy and managing
the finances of the company; that he
was in full accord with the interests,
and that he expected to continue to
have an interestsi n -. s..
do everything which he could to ad-
vance its welfare"
The official statement issued after
yesterdays meeting says that the
Temporary difficulty of the company
in failing to meet its obligations on
the 18th inst, was thoroughly investi-
gated by the directors, who adopted
resolutions exonerating the officers
and clerks from all blame, as the
failure was clearly due to misunder-
standing between the New York and
Denver Offices"
Said to be Temporary.
Mr.. Osgood's retirement from the
directory and executive committee is
only temporary, according to the Off
cial statement, and is occasioned by
the absence in Europe of three direc-
tors and the necessity of Mr. Osgood's
presence in the west. The other Col
orado directors retired "to make places
for representatives of the new finan-
cial interests"
Chairman McClement announced
that he would make no change in the
policy of the company. The statement
concludes as follows:
"Mr. Gould and Mr.. Osgood stated
that there is not now, nor has there
ever been, any friction whatever be-
tween them or the interests with
which they are identified

DENIES STORY OF Eight.
Isaac Newton Stevens Declares H,
Was Not Struck,

Chicago, June 25.-Isaac New
ton Stevens, prominent law
yer of Denver, denies the truth of
an account published in several pa
pers last Wednesday of an alleged fist
fight in the governors office between
Mr.. Stevens and Thomas j. O'Donnell,
commissioner for the worlds fair.
The story ran that O'Donnell and Stev-
ems, while in the Office of the govern
or Of Colorado, became angry in dis
pute about the recent dedication exer-
cises and that the commissioner struck
Mr.. Stevens.
This Mr.. Stevens says, is wholly lln-
true. He denies having been struck
by O'Donnell or by anyone else, and
adds that the only foundation for the
story was to have been found in some
hot words exchanged during the con-
versation.

WASHINGTON POLITICIANS SAY
IOWA DEMOCRATS PLAY MA.
TloNAL TUNE.

Washington, D. c., June 25.-Poli-
ticians in Washington, irrespective OF
party regard the platform adopted by
the Iowa democrats as very strong and
very cleverly drawn. An open poll
tician who stands very close to Hanna
said today that had Bryan ran on that
similar platform, McKinley's plurality
would have been very much less than
1t was. Many Washington democratic
politicians say the platform adopted
yesterday or one quite simialr may be
the national platform in 1894.
