Roosevelt Receives i'm silence.

Oyster Bay, L. l., July 9.-News of
the nomination of Judge Parker was
conveyed to President Roosevelt at
breakfast time to-day by Secretary
Loeb. The President made no comment
on either the nomination of Judge
Parker or any other action of the con-
vention. What he may have to say
concerning the Democratic platform
and candidates probably will be said in
his letter of acceptance of his own
nomination by the Republican Party.
The President passed the day in his
library and about Sycamore Hill with
members of his family. No official WIS.,

Hill IL Delighted.

st. Louis, July 9.-Senator David b.
Hill was seen as soon as the conven-
ton adjourned, and said:
"Of course / am delighted with the
result and the more so because of two
facts. First. that Judge Parker was
named on the first ballot and second.
because with one exception no personal
abuse or vituperation was INDUCED in.
Each State was allowed to put in NOM
nation their favorite son and vote for
him as we had planned. Judge Parker

and will fit the platform which is also
ideal"

MAXI THOROUGH INSPECTION
MIR. Farquhar is a Member of the

Installed System Here

The question of whether Bruins

orerated and has been damaged will
be decided in few days by the very
method that The News suggested to
the mayor and council on Friday morn

been agreed 70 employ Mr. .Earanhar

testing machinery and put the system
through rigid and scientific inyesti-
cation.
MIR Farquhar has been communicat
e with. has stated his terms to the
city. they have been accepted and he
has advised the authorities that he
would be here some date after Sep.
tember Il, today
The News is quite sure that the
city could not have adopted course
based by any better or more substan
tai judgment than is this one. Mr..
4. w Farquhar, who is to come to the
e'sy, ranks among the best authori.
ties on sanitary plumbing and sew
eiage work IN the United States ana
is more than likely that his firm
have engineered and contracted more
sewerage plants in both this country
and in Europe than any other one ia

There is most certainly a great diff
ference between the council special
committee and the city engineer. Both
of them Of course, are Imbued win

RESPECTIVE positions is the correct one
Mr. Farquhar's test of the system will
