The tragic death OF President Mckinley
made the first annual message to Congress
after his reelection in 1900 his last one.
gress yesterday was his third, and all will
admit that it fulfills his promise to adhere
TO and carry out the policy of his prede-
cessor, as far as it lies in his power. Pres
ident Mckinley was far from being a slave
Of precedents, and his latest utterances
showed that he was preparing to adapt his
views to coming events. President Roose-
welt has done this in accordance with the
demands of the times and the authoritative
expressions of the Republican party.
The message differs from most of those Of
former years in that it gives the place Of
fairs instead of foreign policies. The
problems growing out of the agsressions of
corporations and the relations between cap
ital and labor are treated in spirit of
frankness and fairness that will command
popular approval without exciting alarm.
entire monetary system is to be deprecated.
but some notifications of 1t are suggested.
1t had been stated that the President
would probably recommend the appoint
ment of a commission of business men to
investigate and report on plan of develop
ing our merchant marine. Instead of that
he recommends that Congress appoint a
commission for that purpose to consist Of
the secretary of the navy. the postmaster
general, the secretary of commerce and
labor, and such members of the Senate
and House as Congress may designate. This
is a good plan and will probably meet with
the approval of Congress.
Other important recommendations are
those relating to the restriction of immigra-
ton. the suppression of naturalization
frauds, the better enforcement of the inter-
state commerce laws more stringent legis-
lation for the punishment Of frauds in the
public service. and better extradition trea-
ties. All of these are matters of public i'm
portance. The President reviews his rec
concentrations relative to irrigation and
forestry, urges liberal support for the army
and navy and makes an exhaustive presen-
tation of the Colombian Panama affair and
the canal question. The message contains
many points for future consideration in de-
tail

LONDON LABOR LEADER
JAMES O'GRADY HEARD BY AN AUDI
ENCE OF wORkINGMEN.
He Is Very Bitter i'm His DenunciatiOn
OF Capital-Messrs. Buchanan, Kidd
and Wilson Also Speak.

James O'Grady, of London, England, fra
ternal delegate from the Amalgamated Fur
nishing Trades of the British Empire to the
Boston convention of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor. spoke last night before a
mass meeting of workingmen of Indianap-
oils in Masonic Hall on the question of
trade unionism and its relation to the wage
Garner and the capitalist According to
Mr.. OGrady, the workingman of to-day is
a victim of industrial slavery, in which
trade unionism is the first step towards
emancipation.
Besides Mr.. OGrady, there were a num-
Der of other speakers at the meeting, in
Guiding Frank Buchanan, of New York,
president of the International Association
of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers of
America, Thomas /. Kidd, of Chicago. pres
ident of the Amalgamated Wood Workers,
and William Wilson. of Indianapolis, secre-
tary of the United Mine Workers. Their
addresses were short, but they all empha-
getting the full measure of his labor, and
the only way that he can hope to obtain
1t is through the trade unions. Edward z.
Barry, president of Central Labor Union,
presided over the meeting.
Mr.. OGrady said that he could not see
the slightest difference between the labos
movement In this country and that In Ireat
Britain. The methods of BOTH he said, are
practically the same. The thing that
seemed to be bothering American trade
unionfsm is the question of jurisdiction.
He, pointed out that the whole basic princf-
pie of society is that there can be no wars
within. and the sooner trade unionism rec
OgniZeS this the better 1t will be for the
progress of organized labor.
Mr.. o Grady was very bitter in his denun-
citation of capitalists, saying that capital
had no conscience, no sentiment, no heart,
and in this respect was like the men who
manipulated it. He said that in England
to-day 5000 men are killed annually In the
struggle for bread, while $4,000 are manned
In England, he declared, the courts were
bluntly against the trade unionists, and IN
ninety nine cases out of one hundred the de-
cisionS are against the unioniSt. Through
the courts, he said, the British trade unions
have received the most vicious blow of their
history He gave for the reason the fact
that English laws are made by the employ
ing classes, and declared stoutly that the
only way the unions could fight injunctions
Is to make the laws themselves. This, he
said, 1t what the English unions are at
tempting to do-to get the majority in the
million wage earnerS are paying an annual
tax over and above their annual dues. They
have already a bill framed which states
that unions are nonliable.
Labor unions cannot remain content,
continued Mr.. O'Grady, with making a
limit to wages and hours Of labor; they
cannot remain content until their labor
comes back to them in its full measure.
He does not favor strikes, but he believes
| that organized labor will win by force OF
intellect rather than by force Of numbers

Britain that the transfer of the islands Of
st. Pierre and Miquelon TO the United
States would be regarded as cause for

The United States has been frank, TO put

as could be devised would be 10 quietly but
firmly intimate TO Great Britain that Can

islands of st. Pierre and Miquelon by the
United States as a cause of war.
Americans can afford to regard this furry
across the border with complacency. The
United States is sufficiently occupied at
present without trying to acquire any more
territory. 1t never has acquired any except
when national interests seemed to make II
necessary, and IT has use for st. Pierre
and Miquelon. The frightened Canadians
should take a soothing potion and go to

CART0ONIST M'CUTCHEON
WILL LECTURE TONIGHT.
WeII-KnOwn Newspaper Artist and
Friend of George AIDE Will APP
pear for Boys Club.

Tonight at the Claypool assembly room
John T. McCutcheon. of Chicago, will de-
liver a lecture on Cartoon Drawing" The
Club and is given for the benefit of that
worthy institution, which is at present
badly in need of funds. Mr.. McCutcheon
is probably the best known newspaper car
toonist in the United States, and at present
is under contract with the Chicago Tribune,
which paper pays him a weekly salary Of
$3.50. He will illustrate his lecture tonight
with rapid cartoon drawing and the au-
dience can in that way get good idea Of
how this kind of work is done.
Mr.. McCutcheon has had varied exper-
fence in newspaper work, and it is nota-
BILE coincidence that he and George AIDE,
boyhood friends and college chums, should
have gained fame almost simultaneously.
In the early days of their newspaper work
on the Chicago Record, before Mr.. AIDE be-
gan to write Fables in Slang" he was the
author of a column printed daily in the
Record under the title, Stories of the
Streets and of the Town" The popularity
of this work was greatly enhanced by the
fact that Mr.. McCutcheon contributed two
or three illustrations for each story.
At the time of Dewey's notable naval
victory at the battle of Manila, Mr.. Nc
Cutcheon was on board the gunboat McCul-
Tough and was in the thick of the fray.
The Chicago Record, quickly realizing the
Importance of having a staff correspondent
on the scene. made of Mr.. McCutch-
cons services and in the line of authorship
he added luster to an already deserved
fame. Shortly thereafter he was Joined by
his old friend, George AIDE, and during their
stay in the Philippines Mr.. AIDE secured the
material which he has since used in two
successful musical comedies. John 7. Nc
Cutcheon Is not the only member of his
family to gain fame In the literary field.
His brother, George Barr McCutcheon, for
merly a Lafayette newspaper man, is the
author of 'Graustark" and other fast sell
ing works of fiction and now lives in Chi
cago with his brother and George AIDE.
During the visit of Prince Henry, of Ger
many, to the United States, McCutcheon
published a series of cartoons with the
prince the central figure which so
pleased the Nations guest that he sought
for and secured the originals. These now
probably adorn the walls of Prince Henry 6
castles across the sea.
Tickets for the lecture tonight can be
secured at Huder's pharmacy, the Column
bia Club, at the Claypool Hotel cigar stand
and the cigar stand at English's Hotel.

CANADIANS FRIGHTENED.

Some Canadian statesmen and editors
seem to be having their periodical scare
about what they regard as the American
peril. They declare that the United States
n growing more and more aggressive and
that the time has come when the safety of
the Dominion requires that this spirit OF
aggression be checked. This feeling has
received an impetus from some recent
events. chief among which are the Panama
ability of our absorbing Canada, and the
talk about the annexation of the little
French islands of st. Pierre and Miquelon.
There Is nothing in any of these matters
60 Justify the charge of American agrees
siveness. The conduct OF this government
principles. looking to the ultimate con-
struction and control OF the canal BY
the treaty with Panama the United States
does not acquire any territory except a
strip necessary for the canal and does moi
wish to acquire more. The treaty stipula-
tion binding the United States to protect
the Independence OF Panama bars us from
ever trying TO absorb the new republic
even If We wished to. and the American
people would doubtless vote by a large ma
5ority that they did not wish to.
Senator Hale's remarks about the possi-
biiity or probability of our absorbing Can
ada were personal and academic Coming
from senator they were indiscreet, but no
weight should be attached to them. The
two French islands referred to lie of the
southern coast OF Newfoundland and are
not worth going after. The talk OF annex

Islands. mostly fishermen. and has found no
echo whatever In the United States.
