MIR. PHELAN's ADDRESS.
Chairman Phelan's address was as

L,adies and Gentlemen; We come here to-
day te honor a great name in cOuntry's
history The patriotic people Of san Fran
CaE2 fGIpe erected a monument in memory OF
President William Mckinley and We are here
20 unveu g. You will remember the visit OF
the President 20 this city in May 190l-how
he was received By our people with splendid
enthusiasm and how he graci0usly participated
tn entertainments and ceremonials arranged
for him by his Cabinet. His soJourn among
having been prolonged by the illness Of his
wife. the people learned TO love him and ap-
rreciate the virtues and patriotism which sig
naized his life: and. when he departed from
our city YOU all know that he bore toward Il
the most kindly feelings, which he frequently
EXPRESSED.
Within four months after his visit 10 our
coast he was cruelty slain. The citizens Of San
Francisco. shocked beyond expression in their
profound grief and awakened patriotism held
memorial exercises the day OF his funeral

sculpture, but also to awaken the con-
cious spirit to high ideals of public ser
vice and of private life. Therefore,
whenever a new monument of a noble
sort is added to the city we should
rejoice and give honor to those TO
whose liberality and civic patriotism 1t
is due.
For this monument which we have
assembled to dedicate the city is in
debted primarily to a spontaneous i'm
pulse Of the whole people. So dear was
William Mckinley to their hearts, so
near was he to their patriotism and
their pride, that when his death came
so untimely and in fashion so dread
full, the emotions of the mass burst
forth in well nigh universal demand
for the erection of a monument which
would bear witness to their love for
him as a man and to the honor in
which they hold his high service to the
Republic.
ALL CLASSES EAGER TO GIVE.
The intensity cf the feeling prompted
the people to action without waiting for
organization. Contributions for the de-
sired monument poured in from all
sides upon the city authorities and
the newspapers, so that a considerable
sum was donated before even so much
as committee had been appointed TO
take charge of it. After the appoint
ment the contributions increased rap
idly in number and in magnitude. Some
of them were given in sums so large
and with such munificence of liber-
ality that any community might justly
be proud of having citizens capable Of
such splendid giving; but as the con-
tributions came from all classes and as
the laborer gave of his earnings as
generously as the millionaire of his
fortune, it would be invidious to select
any for special praise. Let it suffice
to say that within a space of hardly
more than three months, without re-
sort to any indecorous means of rails
ing money, almost without even the
form of canvassing, there was donated
a sum of more than thirty thousand
dollars by the free, prompt giving of a
patriotic people. That is a record in
which the city and its citizens can have
a juster pride than if the whole sum, or
ten times the sum, had been given by a
single millionaire.
Recognizing the full value of the
spontaneous offerings of the people,
let US not forget to give due honor and
praise to the members of the executive
committee, who organized the work
and carried it forward in a well or
dered way with such efficiency of ac-
tion and such excellence of artistic
judgment as to provide for us the
noble monument we are now to dedi-
ca te.

most marked Of all. The life work
Of Mckinley is most happily

AITKEN'S IDEA.
The departure from the monument,
customarily consisting of modelling of
the figure Of the man himself, was
urged by AitkeH and accepted by the
committee. The only portrayal of Nc
Kinley in the person is a medallion
carved in the front of the pedestal. On
either side are marked the years of his
birth and death. 1s43 and 1901, and be
meath his name is inscribed in the
granite. On another side Of the
pedestal is the inscription: This

ANOTHER HOAX

An attempt to work scheme of the
chain letter variety, with New Castle
as one of the points of operations,
has just come to light. Within tho
past few days number of people liv-
ing in this city, have received letters
from an alleged morality society in
Philadelphia, the avowei object of
which is the suppression of the cigaret
habit. The plan was to have the cor
respondent send to the Philadelphia
people the names of as many cigaret
smokers as he knew. and also send
request to four of his friends to do
the same. These Dei sons were also
to be requested to keep the bail roll
ing, the society" clliring that the
wicked smokers would be sent a mass
of literature bearing on the vice,
which would induce them forthwith
to give up the habit.
The New Castle people who received
the communication did not take to the
plan. and on inquiries being instituted,
1t was found that no society of the
name given was in existence.
The scheme is hoax, pure and
simple, and is evidently plan to Sc.
cure the names of cigaret smokers,
probably with the object of furthering
the sale Of some brand of coffin nails"

The accredited delegates from both the

/ But the differences which separate the
two are so varied and so great that
neitner faction sees any hope of effect

struggle now beginning. neither side
seems disposed to take the initiative,
! 1t was this feeling today that brought
the joint conference to a sudden ad-
iournment without even considering
the subject in hand.
After almost an hours bantering as
to whether an adjournment should be
taken, neither seemingly being ready to
take up the wage scale, the adjourn

President Mitchell argued against it,
saying that both the miners and oper.
ators are here and that so far as the
miners were concerned, they were ready
to do business and that unless there
We're some reason for adjournment he
was against the action.
President Frank Robbins. of Penn
sylvania, said he was glad that the
miners were there to do business as
that was more than they were to do
when adjournment had been raken at
the last convention.
However, he said, the operators had

P|EKERTON
Says Official Dishonesty
Prompts Crime.

Chicago, H., Feb. 29.-In an ad.
dress before the Chicago AnthroDolo-
gical society in the Masonic temple
Matthew w. Pinkerton, head of the de-
tective agency, declared that political
corruption and dishonesty in public
places are responsible for large
proportion of the crime and criminals,
"As long" he said, "as the majori-
ty of our public servants are thieves
and blackguards efforts to suppress
crime will prove a dismal failure. One
thieying alderman or official can cor
rupt hundreds. The downfall and
punishment of one man known 70
thousands will have more salutary
effect than the conviction of hun
dred petty thieves.
He who resorts to knavery to Sc.
cure public Office and uses it foi

than the unlettered, half-civlliza"
gamin who picks pocket or snatches

of hunger.

Il do not believe" said the speaker,
that crime Is increasing at an alarm
ing rate, due to universal degeneracy,
and that every healthy boy is a Grim

The most successful foe of crime in
the belief of Mr.. Pinkerton is univer-

PORT ARTHUR
The Cynosure Of Russian
Eyes.
Eyes.

London, March 1.-The Moscow cor
respondent of the London Times states
that interest throughout all Russia is
now fixed on Port Arthur and specula-
ton as to the probable fate of that sup
posedly impregnable fortress takes the
widest range. The publication of
General Stoessel's order to the troops,
while 1t had the effect of arousing en-
thusiasm in Russia has also attracted
attention to the tremendous strategic
power of that fortress and to the cru
cial part 1t plays i'm Russia's plans for
the defeat of the Japanese in Korea.
The failure of the Japanese attempt to
bottle up the fleet in Port Arthur har-
Dor, while 1t evoked sarcastic COM
ment from the Russian press as to the
Japanese cunning and the miscarriage
of the enemys plans, yet now the Rus
sian military authorities are pointing
out that this attempt having been de-
feated, therefore it must follow that
Port Arthur is impregnable and that
the Japanese can never capture 1t.
IL Is stated in high Russian circles
that not only will Port Arthur resist
all attempts to reduce 1t, but that the
Japanese fleet will yet be destroyed by
the combined guns of the fortress and
the feet.

ORDERS RESCINDED

Odessa March 1.-The oraers that

one at Bendery have been rescinded
and the commanders of the three regi-

Webster City, Iowa, Feb. 29.-Judge
]. IL. Richards of this city, has held
squarely against the state board Of
health on the proposition that drug
less healers come within the provision
of the law regarding the practice of
medicine. The decision will affect sew
eIal thousand people In Iowa and the
case will doubtless be appealed to get
a ruling of the supreme court upon It..
The case was against Dr. Edmonds,
indicted for prescribing certain diet
and exercise for his patients. He was
tried at the last term OF court and the
jury disagreed. His counsel demur-
red to the indictment and was sus.
tanned by the court. The case was
