DIED ON THE FOURTH.
Three Presidents Have Passed Away
ON the Birthday of the
United states.

Three presidents of the United
States died on the Fourth of July,
two on it's fiftieth anniversary. One
was Thomas Jefferson, who SO years
before had signed the Declaration of
independence, and John Adams, who
at the same time, had, after three
DAYS debate, secured the adoption
of the Declaration. 1t might be taken
for granted that these two repre-
sentative men were warm personal
friends, even if history were silent
upon the subject, which it is not.
When Jefferson was dying on that
day which he had so signally helped
to distinguish, his friend was also
breathing his last. Adams did not
know. of Jefferson's illness, and his
last words were: ''Thomas Jefferson
still survives" as if there was con-
ISOLATION in the thought. But his
friend had already passed from
earth.
President Monroe, whose famous
doctrine has kept his memory
green. also died on the Fourth og
july (1s31). OF him Jefferson said:
eff his soul were turned inside out,
not spot could be found on it,"
That Monroe, like his distinguished
friend and predecessor, should pass
away on the anniversary of the in
dependence of the country he served
so faithfully, is touching coinci-
dence.

BRITISH CABINET
MEETS IN LONDON
POLITICAL HISTORY is BEING MADE
TODAY AND A CRISIS is
NOW AT HAND.
LEADERS ARE GATHERING
Something Is in the Air and Rumors OF
designations OF Departments
Heads Are Rife.
by ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, Sept Id.-The Associated
Press understands that the rumors of the
approaching resignation of the chancellor
OF the exchequer, Mr.. Richie, arc well
founded lie will attend several cabinet
meetings today with the determination
oil resigning. Other minor designations
are likely to occur but Colonial Secretary
chamberlain and Premier Balfour are re-
ported to be standing together and intend
keeping the cabinet by filling the vacan-
cies.
FROM all parts of the country and the
continent British cabinet ministers came
10 London today TO attend the cabinet
meeting. which was regarded as marking
the most important phase in the recent
political history of the United Kingdom.
The Times voiced public sentiment in say
ing It was great OCCASION" more i'm
portant even than the historic meeting
when home rule was uppermost, for the
main issue today is the unity of the en-
pire."
Not since the fatcful day when the
cabinet framed an answer to President
Krugers utimatum has such crowds
gathered around Downing street. From
early morning loiterers assembled here in
the hope of catching glimpse of the
political leaders. However when il was
announced that the cabinet would not
meet until 3 o'clock, the spectators dwin-
died away.
Mr.. Balfour who arrived i'm London
from Scotland yesterday evening, went to
Downing street early. There a number
of treasury officials were closeted all the
morning with Mr.. Balfour's secretaries,
going over the statistics OH which the
cabinet is supposed to base its decision
for or against free trade.
Mr.. Chamberlain, who was the central
figure in today's proceedings, left Bir-
mingham accompanied by his wife. A
large crowd bade them farewell at the
railroad station. On their arrival here
Mrs. Chamberlain went to their London
home and Mr.. Chamberlain proceeded to
the colonial Office.
Upon the arrival of Mr.. Chamberlain at
Downing street he was loudly hootcd. A
crowd of laborers employed near by joined
in this unusual demonstration against the
colonial secretary. Mr.. Chamberlain, who
was accompanied by Gerald Balfour prcs-
dent OF the board OF trade, showed his
customary indifference to this reception.
The police eventually were obliged to form
double lines from Mr.. Balfours house to
the foreign office, so as to enable the cabi-
net ministers to enter the latter place.

HILL IN BAD WRECK
Train Carrying Railway
Officials Runs Into

ny ASSOCIATED PRESS,

La Crosse, Wis, Sept. IA special
train consisting of an engine and two
coaches containing President Hill of the
Northern Securities company; President
Harris, the first and second vice presi-
dent; the chief engineer, Breckenridge,
and other officials of the Burlington. early
last evening ran into two large bouldcrs
which had been washed on the track by
severe rainstorm near Alma and the en-
gine was badly damaged Outside Of a

OF the officials on the train were injured.
A fierce storm was in progress when
the train left this city for St. Paul, and

A similar accident occurred at the
same place about year ago, in which
Trainmaster Purdy lost his life and
others were injured.
Much damage was done to railroads
generally by the storm, numerous wash
outs being reported.
