loyalty ali made zeal and alive by
human l1indliness which knew no sec
tions within the republic, nor even the
boundaries of nations, have made
Abraham Lincoln one of the little
number who are enshrined in the uni
versal heart. Our American belongs to
all parties, to all creeds, to all lands,
to all men. For he was the greatest
humanist the world has seen since the
Man of Sorrows walked in the shad-
ows of Gethsemane. We cannot claim
him for ourselves alone-he is too
great for selfishness, even though it be
the fine selfishness of patriotism.
And, after all, what nobler pride can
there be than in the knowledge that
from among us Americans has arisen
one who is and always will be blessed
by all the children of man."
The speech of Mr.. Smith was regard
ed as classic. Among many such
tributes he said: "You cannot think
of Lincoln as any other than a char
acteristic and unmistakable Ameri-
can. He was copied from no model
and founded on no example. He
blended and accentuated the recognize
ed American traits, and stands out
before the world as Dre-eminently the
American of Americans"
He received an ovation at the close.
Senator Beveridge paid him an elo-
quent tribute, and then introduced
Congressman Hepburn, who spoke on
tThe Republican Party" He men
toned President Roosevelt in the class
with Lincoln, Harrison, Mckinley and
Hanna as a typical American, and de-
clared he would be continued as presi-
dent. He was generously applauded.
Congressman Hepburn's speech was
purely political being in praise of the
accomplishments of the party. He de-
clared that the money question is OBJ
solete; that imperialism is no longer
an issue, and the Democrats would
fight for a revision of the tariff in
which he wished them Godspeed.
Congressman Charles B. Lands

The banquet hall was a bower of
hooufv Tho IOn0 70 Wprp almost
buried beneath flowers, over which
there was soft, incandescent glow.
The color scheme throughout was red,
white and blue. Over the speakers
table at which many of the guests of
honor were seated there was an i'm
mense painting of Lincoln. The
speechmaking did not begin until after
10. as the banquet was in twelve
courses. The Hon. John B. Cockrum
introduced Senator Albert J. Beyer-
idge as the POSTMASTER, and he ac-
copied in his usual eloquent style.
Leading up to the introduction OF
Charles Emory Smith of Philadelphia,
the first speaker, whose subject was
abraham Lincoln" he said:
"The world is busy and the world is
old The memory of man is brief and
scanty. Only few of earth's uncount-
able millions live in the mind of the
race And these few live in humani-
tvs heart rather than in it's intellect.
They have been the great lovers of
their fellow man. For nothing lasts
but truth; and human brotherhood is
the greatest truth The highest words
yet spoken are these: Love thy
neighbor as myself The next best
are these: With malice toward
none, with charity for ALL

Baltimore, Feb. 13.-That Baltimore

tial, more modern and far more SYM
metrical needs no further proof than
was made manifest by renewed ex-
preston on the part of Mayor McLane
and the committee of public safety
and by leading citizens that no build
ing permits shall be issued until a
plan of realigning certain thorough
fares whose croolzedness and narrow
ness have long constituted a blemish
as well as embarrassment to munich

There is a grim determination yisi-
bic on all sides that the new Baltimore
shall be distinguished among Ameri-
can cities for both its material sub
stance and it's architectural art. The
mayor and the committee of safety are
resolved that shells of buildings shall
not be run up between freproof struc-
lures, as in the past, and thus serve
as standing invitation to the flames.

FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED
Strange Tragedy in Clay County Being
investigated.

Brazil, Ind, Feb. 13.-Arthur Miller,
a young farmer, was found dead in his
home, having been shot through the
Heart with a shotgun. Indications
point to murder, as it would have been
almost impossible for Miller to have
fired the shotgun himself.
Early in the afternoon Miller drove
with his wife to the home of a neigh
Dor and returned home. When her
husband did not return for her, Mrs.
Miller went home and found him lying
in a pool of blood on the floor and
a terrible wound in his left side. The
generally accepted theory is that he was
killed by an enemy or burglar whom
he had surprised in the house.

CANDIDATES IN PLENTY

indianapolis, Feb. 13.-The four can
didates for the Republican nomination
for governor--W l.. Taylor of this
city Judge Penfield of Auburn, j.
Frank Hanly of Lafayette and Warren
G. Sayre of Wabash, left here last
night for Evansville to attend the an
nual convention of the Lincoln League
of Indiana. 1t is safe to say, however,
that they did not travel together Up
to this time Taylor and Hanly have
had the field to themselves, but Pen
field and Sayre are preparing to give
them run for their money. Penfield
has very promptly disposed of the ru-
mors that he might withdraw, and not
a few politicians are coming to the
conclusion that he may after all cut
a swath in the race. Sayre is too well
known to need any introduction, but
he is not going TO let the grass grow
under his candidacy.

Hugh TIL. Miller of Columbus has
addressed letters to Republicans
throughout the state asking them as
to the advisability of him becoming
a candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for lieutenant governor. His
letters will very naturally be received
with much interest, as he was regard
cd as one of the most conservative
and best informed members Of the last
legislative body. His record there.
however, is what is liable to cut most
deeply against him, as he showed a
disposition throughout to disregard
party caucuses, especially during the
consideration of the legislative reap
portionment bill. Several party lead
ers who received the letters said that
while they admired Miller personally,
they did not think him a suitable man
for second place on the ticket because
of his record for breaking caucuses.
Miller has been talked of some as a
probable candidate for speaker of the
house in case he should he returned to
the legislature.

mistake of being over confident" he
said "They will not make the same
mistake again, however, as we are
going about things this time in very
systematic way. 1 don't know what
the other candidate have up their
sleeves, but | know this much, that
Hanly is getting a wonderful lot Of
encouragement from every part of the
state, and if things keep on as they
are now, he can't he beaten for the
nomination" Wood says that Hanly
is making a very thorough canvass.

Hitch in Completion
OF Panama Canal
Proceedings.
Attorney General Learns
That Title to Property
Is ClOudGd.
Certain Suits Pending in France Must
Be Settled Before Government
Completes Negotiations.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-There is
a hitch in the completion of the Pan
anna canal negotiations. Just as the
United States Government was about
to pay over SIC 900, 900 to j. p Morgan
& Co., as the fiscal agents of the re-
public of Panama on Thursday, Attor-
ney General Knox halted the proceed
ings by saying the final deal with the
Panama Canal Company would not be
ieornpikted with William Nelson Crom-
well. its counsel. Before this can be
done Cromwell must take trip to
Paris to obtain more authority and
complete certain legal technicalities
which the law officers and this Gov
ernment have suddenly found to be
necessary. Cromwell has been given
until March 25 to perfect the transac-
tion
This new situation, developing as it
did, just as Panama was about to be
paid its SIC, 1000, 900 and as this Govern
ment had announced it's readiness to
pay $40,000,000 to the French company,
has caused great surprise and disap-
pointment to the United States off,
tative of the company, has repeatedly
told the members of the Cabinet while
the treaty was pending that he had
the necessary authority and would be
ready to turn over proper title to the
property as soon as the treaty ratif1-
cations were exchanged. This Govern
ment took Cromwell at his word and
made preparations to pay the canal
company and the new republic
Cromwell who has been in this city
this week in conference with the Gov
ernment officials, denied tonight that
there was any serious drawback in
completing the canal transactions.
While no one would say tonight just
exactly what the hitch was, it was un-
derstood that certain suits against the
new Panama Canal Company have not
yet been cleared up to the satisfaction
of this Government and the title can
not yet be given.

Russia NIL Strike No
!. Deczs1ve Blo7v Before
the End Of IbnL

ST. PETERSBURG, March
5.-Although almost four weeks
have elapsed since the japanese
first attacked Port Arthur, here
the war is considered hardly be-
gun. Heavy land fighting, upon
which the fate of the campaign
depends. is not expected before
the end of April By that time
Russia will have in the field, ex-
elusive Of the large army of men
required to guard the railroads,
four army corps, each with cav
airy division and an artillery bri-
gade. All that has occurred SO
far or is going to occur before
these forces are in the field is
considered, according to the Rus
sian view, to be nothing more
than the prologue to tue real
drama.
The crippling Of the Port Ar
thur fleet was unfortunate, in that
it gave the enemy command Of
the sea at the very outset. 1t is,
however, of relatively small inn
portance from the standpoint OF
the main strategy of the war
whether Port Arthur stands or
falls. But 50 long as Port Ar
thur holds OFT and the fleet is
larbored there it will constitute
