DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE WILL
 ISSUE HIS SEPTEMBER 17.
Lively day at Rcsemount-L. T. Dur and Calls on Judge Parker With Good News From Michigan-16o Theatrical Visitors Call in Body.

Esopus. N Y. Aug. 31-Judg,e Par ker's lettfr of acceptance will not be issued until after that of President Roosevelt It was the intention at Rosemount until recently to make pub lie the letter about September 10.. but it is now understood that MT Roose- velt's letter will not be issued until September 12. Therefore the letter of the Democratic candidate probably will not be made before September IT.
 Judge Parker was more than un- usually busy today. He entertained number of men whose missions were political. as well as a delegation rep resenting the Theatrical Woman's Par. ker League. The candidate was told that 120 women are members of the league. which. the delegation said. con trols 160 voters in the theatrical pro fessiOn The members propose to turn all of these votes into the Democratic column and as many more as can be reached by their influence. The dele gation was com posed of members of companies now rehearsing in New York, and received a cordial welcome
 Representative Francis Burton liar. riman. of New York. vice chairman of the State Committee on Organization, visited Rosemount today. He was accompanied by Frank NJ. Patterson of New York. the chief organizer of the Parker college clubs. Judge Parker is much interested in this work.

REACTIONS INVOLVED
In the Busting of lron-Summary of
 Unfinished Inquiry.

W R. Dunstan publishes a summary of the present results of an unfinished inquiry into the reactions involved in the trusting of iron. While both liquid water and oxygen are necessary for the formation of rust, the presence of carbonic acid is not essential, all though it may accelarate action. The well known effects of alkalies and ak aline salts in preventing oxidation of iron has been heretofore attributed to the witdrawal of carbonic acid It has been found. however. that the phenomenon is not due to this cause but to the establishment of conditions in which the production of hydrogen peroxide is inhibited When high ly purified iron. containing mere traces of impurity, is left in contact with dry gases (oxygen, carbon dioxide, mixtures of oxygen and carbon diox- idel. rusting does not take place. In the presence of the same gases and water vapor, no rusting occurs so long as a constant temperature (34 deg. in the actual experiments) is maintained: but if the temperature is allowed to fluctuate, liquid water condenses on the surface of the iron and rust is pro. duced. It is thus shown that pure iron is not oXidized in presence of gases and water vapor only. but that the presence of liquid water is necessary Tor rusting to take place Tn another series of experiments pieces of iron were left in contact with water sat- urated with a particular gas and with an atmosphere Ot the same gas above the solution. When hydrogen. carbon dioXide or nitrogen which had been carefully freed from oxygen was en- ployed rusting did not ocur. but if oxy- gen or a mixture of oxygen and car bon diOXide was used. oxidation took place From these results. it is evi. dent that for the formation of rust both oxygen and liquid water are re- quired. In the experiments in which a mixture of oxygen and carbon diox- ide was used. the results observed in dicated that in this case a secondary action proceeds simultaneously.

 Leave For New vork,

Oyster Bay. Aug 31-After a con ference with the President. which ex. tended far into the night and was re- sumed early today. National Chair man Cortelyou and former Secretary Of War Elihu Root left today for New parture they declined to discuss the details of their conference A part of their mission to Sagamore Hill it is said, was to look over the Presidents letter of acceptance.

The PrAsident, it is stated today, is determined not to in terfere in the New York situation and hopes the delegates at the Sara toga convention may be left to make the nomination for themselves.
 Secretary Root said today: T can say nothing more than I have said already 10 the people. l shall not at- tend the convention. I will not be In the State when the convention is held''
 Representative James T. McCleary, of Minnesota, accompanied by his son, arrived here on late afternoon train and visited the President at Saga. more Hill. MT.

 The part of Senator Bailey's speecb which dealt with the personality of Roosevelt pleased his listeners might fly. He said in part
 They tell us that the President is honest. Let us grant it; but let us remember that he is as cratic as he is honest. They tell us that the President IS brave, and so he is; but he is as rash as he is brave. If we were seek ing soldier I would prefer the Presi. dent over almost any other man now in public life But as we are seeking statesmen, I would prefer almost any other man now in public life over the President. He would be one of the best men to lead desperate charge in time of war. but he is one of the worst men 10 administer great move ment in time of peace"
 T do not undervalue the soldier whose courage or ambition carries him to glory or to death. While such men are useful under other forms of government they are useful under ours. They are not so useful, how ever. as those other men who have the firmness and the self-restraint, when clothed with the power to obey the laws. to obey them as they have them written. resolutely refusing to violate their letter under the old and danger ous pretense of preserving their spirit"
