Development Of Charity.

Mr.. De Forrest spoke on the development
Of charity, declaring that the oldest Of the
charitable organizations has not been in
existence more than twenty-five years.
Charitable effort was divided into three
heads-childhood charity, youthful charity

Duty of Selecting Heads of Subcom-
mittees-Those Who Served
Four Years Ago.

Assuming that Mr.. Charles c. Glover will
accept the appointment to the chairman
ship of the Roosevelt inaugural committee,
interest now centers in the probable selec-
ton of the two vice chairmen, it being I'M
derstood that in view Of the intention to
make the ceremony of March 4. 1905, the
most imposing in the history of presiden-
tial inaugurations two vice chairmen will
be required instead Of one, as formerly.
1t is the desire of the administration to
make the inaugural national and not po-
litical. This desire was manifested to a
degree In the reported selection of Mr..
Glover as chairman. whose republicanism,
though it may be sincere. is not of as long
standing as that of other prominent bust
ness men and financiers whose names
might have been mentioned in connection
with the craftsmanship.
1t is also understood that one or two
new committees will be added d standing

duties of the inaugural committee, of which
Mr. Glover in all probability, will be the
chairman.
In addition to the chairman vice chair
man, treasurer and secretary the inaugural
committee usually consists of about fifty
leading citizens, many of whom are made
chairmen of some subcommittee. Then
there must be vice chairmen and secretaries

COMPLIMENTARY TO AMERICA.
Minister Hill Says Europe Regards Us
With High Respect.

Dr. David J. Hill, United States minister to
Switzerland. who is in this country on leave
Of absence, having Just come from st.
Louis. where he read paper before one OF
the congresses, called at the State Depart
ment today to pay his respects to Acting
Secretary Loomis.
From his quiet post at Basic DR.. Hill was
able to get what he regarded as q sound
and comprehensive estimate Of the feeling
prevailing in most Of the European coun-
tries respecting the United States. and eepe-
cially President Roosevelt. OF the country
at large. he says that America has risen
wonderfully In recent years in the esteem Of
europeans. Americans he said, are now
everywhere treated with the greatest con-
sideration and courtesy. and the term
American as applied to manufactures ana
produce has come to be regarded as q
synonym OF excellence
PRESIDENT Roosevelts personality, accord
Ing to DIR. Hill, has made q profound i'm
preston on Europe. and the minister de-
sired especially to emphasize what he de-
clared to be the fact that the Europeans
looked almost unanimously upon President
Roosevelt as the greatest force making for
peace In the civilized world. They did not
aouot that he would uphold any proper
american right, but they never looked upon
him as wantonly aggressive. but rather as
moving In peaceful and lawful channels to
benefit not only his own country, but man.
kind at large
Europeans fully realize, said DR.. Hill, that
national rights can not be maintained for
any length of time without power behind
them to defend them. Therefore there was no
disposition to criticise the splendid develop
ment OF the American navy, and, in fact,
mat was looked upon rather as the natural
development of great police force to
protect the rapidly growing foreign COM
merce Of America.

Autumn Millinery Opening.

The superb display at Woodward &
Lothrop's of autumn styles in imported
hats, toques and turbans and their own
clever adaptations is a revelation in tire
latest continental modes and the smart
Lothrop milliners Models fresh from the
hands of the most noted artiste-designers
in the French capital proclaim for the fall
the style epoch to be that of the "Direc-
toire, with such notifications as are COM
patible with good taste. The stunning vel
vet hats with sweeping plumes are a de-
lightful picturesque revival of an historical
fashion, and those of felt for the mid
season hats are to be very simply trimmed.
little consideration must be exercised by
the shopper in the selection of these direc-
toire hats. which are decidedly out of keep
ing with tailored costume.
Dainty turbans and stylish toques, whose
incompatible air of smartness denotes the
source of their fashioning, are shown in
the newest effects and combinations of
colors Picture hats are unusually beauti-
full, and the plumes and smaller feathers
used in their decoration are the choicest
obtainable. From the wealth of styles and
the lavish supplies of materials, the selec-
ton of made-to-order" hats may be as
exclusive as the designs of the imported
creations.
While the recent changes made in this
great establishment have not materially
affected the millinery salon, the general
air and spirit of progress pervades even this
department. in which the trend of fashion
duplicates in the newest materials and nov
elites the turning of the leaves and foliage
into the deep, rich colors of the autumn.
The opening will be continued through the
week.

A RUSSIAN PRoTECTIoNIsT.
Minister Of Finance Pays Compliment
to the United States,


Consul Monaghan at Chemnitz Germany,
has transmitted to the State Department
certain utterances of Mr.. White, the Rus
sian minister of finance. as giving a cue
to the future Industrial policy of Russia
He says that Mr. Witte is distinctly a pro-
tectionist, and has asserted in a public
speech that history presents not one soil
tary example of a nation whose productive
powers were developed through the inf1u-
ence of a system of free trade. England is
not excepted. The brilliant example Of the
United States is cited as showing how the
pursuance of protective policy has made a
nation into mighty industrial power"
Russia" says Mr. Witte, presents the
same diversification in industry and re-
sources which characteriZes the United
States. Every resource needed to industry,
whether agricultural, manufacturing or
mining can be found in the domains of
the empire. BY walling Russia in with
high protective tariff he believes that the
country can be made to experience
marvellous development Even the present
protective policy is not radical enough to
satisfy him. He wants to the iron in
dustry fostered by better protection. Rus
STA Is annually importing from s70.O00.00O to
$S0,O00O00 worth of machinery of all kinds,
but especially of agricultural implements.
This import trade is to be cut down. Rus
STA, with its. immense coal and iron de-
posts, is to meet the demand. But this can
not be done In day. and many continental
writer's have great doubts as to the wis
dom of such an absolute protective policy.
Even though the iron production of Rus
STA more than quadrupled in the twenty
years from 1880 to 1900 and in the latter
year amounted to 1,916. 400 TONS it is still
far from the stupendous figures of the
United States or those of Germany. The
iron production of Germany is now about
5000 600 tons and that of the United States
about 13,0OO, 900 tons. Statistics are given
to show that some of Russia's infant in
dustries have already developed to very re-
spectacle proportions.

Land Frauds in Indian Territory.

dispatch from Kansas City, Mo-, last
night says: William M. Stewart, United
States senator from Nevada is here. sena-
tor Stewart is chairman of the Senate COM
mfttee on Indian affairs, and in that capac-
lily has been investigating the land allot-
ment question In the Indian territory. In
speaking of what he had learned, Senator
Stewart said that land frauds In that terri
tory had grown to such proportions that
they would have a bad effect In the fight for
statehood.
1.-THE Indian territory" said he, lis in a
lamentable condition. There is no oppor-
tunity there for actual settlers. Spectators,
or land grabbers, occupy the entire field.
The wealthy halfbreeds and the intermar-
ried whites cooperate with the schemers
from the outside. who would appropriate
everything in sight with view of so COM
plicating matters that they can prevent the
restriction of any part Of the territory
either to the honest Indians or to the white
settlers"
