Oyster Bay, July 27.-President
Roosevelt was notified formally to-
day of his nomination for the Presi-
dency by the Republicans. In accord
ance with the Presidents wishes the
ceremony which took place in his
country home at Sycamore Hill was
as simple as possible. Formal notifi-
cation of the action of the convention
was made on behalf of the committee
ry, by Speaker Cannon. The weather
was ideal. The verandah extending
almost around the house was decorat-
ed with American flags hung from
pillar to pillar. Many houses in the
neighborhood were also draped with
the national colors Only three mem
bers of the notification committee
were absent. Among the invited
guests were men prominent in all the
walks of life.
At the close of Speaker Cannon's
address President Roosevelt advanced
to the verandah railing and standing
under a festoon of flags delivered his
speech in response to the notification.
He was warmly applauded. At the
conclusion of his remarks the Presi-
dent held an informal reception and
received congratulations. Those pres
ent numbered 125. Lack of facilities
prevented the accommodation of
greater number

PLAN BLACK HAND CHECK
Wealthy Italians VII DISCUSS
Measures TO-daY.

The Italian business men OF New-York many
of whom are men of considerable wealth, have
decided to take a stand against the backmail-
ers and kidnappers who have been most active
for the last few months The kidnapping Of
Tony Mannino came nearer home to them than
any of the minor outrages which the black
mailers have perpetrated. James Mannino is a
man of wealth and business standing while
those who have been troubled before were bar
bers, tradesrnen and keepers of small saloons
This kidnapping marked step in advance in
the daring of the gangs operations. If they
succeeded in doing away with the Mannno boy
or in getting ransom for his return there is no
telling where they would stop.
Antonio yucca, the ex-coroner. president of
the Italian Chamber of Commerce. has called

ing tomorrow is q regular board meeting. but
the kidnappers and blackmailers' operations will
be thoroughly discussed. Several of the men,

which President yucca favors. is the appoint
ment OF more Italian policemen. The police and
detectives of other nstionalities can make little
progress in cases OF this sort The few Italian
detectives and policemen on the force are well
known by the criminals OF the various settle
ments and Handicapped in their work.
Another plan which will be discussed at the
meeting to-day is to raise fund among the
Italian merchants and others who are interested
TO hire special detectives. These men would be

RETAIL BEEF THE SANE.
.Say Wholesalers Increase Vas
IGNORED When Strike Began.

Small retailers OF beef i'm this city yesterday
declared that they were justified in ignoring
the wholesalers present reduction. inasmuch
as they ignored the wholesalers increase when
the labor troubles began
Yesterday the packers generally sold at a
one-half cent reduction. or a price that ranged
from 8 to 9l5 cents, against 10 to 1O14 cents n
week ago lower even than the price charged
before the strike began. This was 91s cents.
DESPITE this reduction. which in some instances
was as high as ] cent and even IL cents a
pound the retailers maintained the old prices.
Porterhouse steak sold for from % to 2S
cents; rib roasts. at 20 cents; best cuts. up to
% cents: rounds is TO 20 cents. and rumps of
corn beef at 10 cents
Legs of mutton at retail were liza cents;
shoulders q and cents; legs OF spring lamb
IL cents and lamb chops anywhere from II to
22 cents.
The butchers say that when the strikes began
they had TO pay two cents higher, and although
they were thus entitled to raise the price TO
the public four cents a pound. they refused to
raise IL cent.
Last night a number of wholesalers predicted
another drop In the price of meat.
