Traction Park next Tuesday after
noon was called off yesterday by the
committee in charge. This action
was taken after it became known

using plans belonging to the asso-
citation: It also became known to the
fremen that certain members of the

PORTE OBJECTS
TO AMERICAN DEMANDS BUT
4 WILL YIELD-PATRlE PRINTS
AN INTERVIEW.

PARIS Aug. 13.-The newspaper
Patrie to-day prints an interview with
Nabi Bey, counsellor of the Turkish
embassy in Paris, regarding the
Porte's objections to the demands Of
the United States. He is quoted as
saying: eve consider the demands
unreasonable, and mere pretexts to
aggravate the situation. The priv
ileges. demanded for American mis-
sionaries would not aid them as they
are much scattered These mission
aries injure us as they are elements
of discord. We have positive evil
dence indicating that they work with
the Armenian agitators. AS to the
erection of American. legation or en-
bassy, we, believe the United States
wants thisso as to be on the same foot
ing as the other powers only they
wish to havexa freer hand in Ottoman
affairs
He implied. however, that the Porte
would yield to Americas demands.

passed to-day among the Rockefeller
interests, the Morgan interests and
the other great houses that Mr.. Root,
while publicly protesting, has given
his private consent and will accept af-
ter he is named.
This Information was supplement-
ed by the news that came. privately
to the Republican Congressional Com

cock and Secretary Overstreet that
Root is to be the man, and advised
contests in this State accordingly.
1t was not, however, until the finan-
cial interests canvassed the situation
and went to Root with the demand
that he shall run that. he promised
Back of the selection of Root there
are many reasons. One is that the

We're Growing some.

ss#5 The West Virginian is making new
v friends very rapidly = these days.
Seldom a day passes that we do not
set three or four new subscribers,
but ina three days this week we
added ffty-three names to our sub
gscriptions list. This is indeed most
gratifying, not only from a sentimen-
tai point of view. for we like to have
many friends, but because it encour-
ages the enterprise financially and
makes 1l our paper more valuable to
advertiserss .
It's a rare thing for us to lose
"a subscriber when once he gets the
habit Of reading the West virginian
One dollar is all the West Virginian
costs for three months. That will give

and an w viii also give the full returns OF
the election.

WILL NOT REOPEN.
THE MISSIONER SCHOOL UNDER
DIRECTION OF MISS ROSE
SWEENY HAS CLOSED
INDEFINITELY.

Although it has been known for
some time, no published statement has
been made concerning the fact that
the Westover school will not resume
work at the usual time for the fall
opening. While the school was popu-
lar and successful to a degree, yet it
had many disadvantages which We're
hard to work against. The buildings
were not very well suited TO the work
and the expenses attached to the run
ming of the school were pretty heavy.
That is probably the real reason for
the schools closing. 1t could not be
made pay.
The many friends Of Miss Sweeny
and her popular corps Of teachers are
sorry these people will not conduct
the school again this coming year.

BLACK SHEEP
SAMUEL GATY's FATHER AND
GRANDFATHER WERE MAY.
ORS IN THE WEST YEARS
AGO.
AND HAS BEEN SENTENCED
TO PRISON.

/ NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Grandson
and namesake of Samuel Gaty, mayor
| of st. Louis in the early SOS and son
of w. E. Gaty, mayor of Santa Bar
bara, CAL, for three terms, until his
of twenty-four, who is in receipt of
| $4,000 a year from his fathers es-
tate, is soon to go to the Elmira Re
drmatory. He pleaded guilty to re-
ceiving stolen goods before Judge
Newburger. in General Sessions
| Court yesterday, and was sentenced
With Richard Parker, aged twenty
he was indicted for breaking into the
fiat of John MEG. Reese, No. 545 West
F'ifty-seventh street, on July 5, hold
ing Reece up at the point of a pistol
and robbing him of jewelry valued at
$3.50. Parker pleaded not guilty and
was tried and convicted, although in
his own defense he said he never
had seen ,Gaty before his arrest, and
that the charge was the result of
police conspiracy to send him to
prison. Parker was sent to the same
institution by Judge Newburger yes
terday, and in passing sentence on
both the Judge said:
you. Gaty, I am told. were arrest
ed in st. Louis some years ago, and
understand it cost your family many |
thousands Of dollars to keep you from
going to Jail. 1t was my first inten-
ton to send you both to prison for |
long terms, for 1 understand you have
been living on this man Reece, and
that when you first met him he had |
a legacy of 100000, none of
him he was at the end of his fortune.
But you are young and possibly may
be reclaimed and become honest
Gaty, in the Tombs yesterday, after
being sentenced, said:
Il am not guilty of this charge, but
pleaded guilty to keep Parker from
going to prison, although I do not
know him. AS to robbing this man
Reece, that is all nonsense, as
lived with him for a year or more, and
could have robbed him of thousands l.

lie needed some one to do so.
