A DAY FOR THANKS
PRESIDENT DEsleNATEs NoVEM.
Der 80 AS THE TIME.
BLESSINGS OF THE PAST YEAR
Chief Executive Recommends that the
People consecrate Themselves to
Lives OF Cleanliness, Honor and
Wisdom.

WASHlNGTON-The president has
issued his proclamation naming
Thursday. November 80 next, as day
for thanksgiving.
1t is as follows:
By the president of the United
States of America, a Proclamation
When nearly three centuries ago the
first settlers came to the country
which has now become this great re-
public, they fronted not only hardship
and privation, but terrible risk TO their
lives. In those grim years the Gus
tom grew of setting apart one day in
each year for n special service of
thanksgiving to the Almighty for pre-
serving the people through the chang
ing seasons. The custom has now be-
come national and hallowed by i'm
memorable usage. We live in easier
and more plentiful times than our fore
fathers, the men who with rugged
strength faced the rugged days; and
yet the dangers to national life are
quite as great now as at any previous
time in our history. 1t is eminently fit
ting that once year our people should
set apart a day for praise and thanks
giving to the Giver of good, and, at
the same time, that they express their
thankfulness for the abundant mercies
received, should manfully acknowledge
their shortcomings and pledge
themselves and in good faith to strive
to overcome them. During the past
year we have been blessed with boun-
tiful crops. Our business prosperity
has been great. No other people has
terial well being as ours now stands.
We are not threatened by foes from
without. The foes from whom we
should pray to be delivered are our
own passions, appetites and follies;
and against these there is always need
! that we should war.
Therefore. now set apart Thurs
day, the thirtieth day of this Novem
Der, as day of thanksgiving for the
past and of prayer for the future, anG
! on that day | ask that throughout the
land the people gather in their homes
and places of worship, and in render
ing thanks unto the Most High fol
the manifold blessings of the past year
consecrate themselves to life o
cl anliness, honor and wisdom, 81
that this nation may do it's allotted
work on the earth in a manner worth.
OF those who founded it and of thos,
who preserved It.
In witness whereof | have hereunt'
set my hand and caused the seal Of tn
United States to be affixed.
. Done at the city of Washington
!, this second day of November in tn
year of our Lord one thousand min
hundred and five and of the independ
ence of the United States the one hun
dred and thirteenth.

GREAT DISORDER
RloTINe GOES ON IN MANY RUS
SIAN TOWNS.
SCORES KILLED AND WOUNDED
Anti-Jewish Uprisings Said to Have
Occurred In Many Places-The
Most Serious Disorders are Report
ed from Odessa.

ST. RSBURG-Though Mon
Petersburg and Moscow, flood Of dis
patches from all parts of the empire
report disorders in many cities with
q heavy total of dead and wounded.
The people while celebrating their
new-found freedom were in many in.
stances set upon by Cossacks and POI
lice, while sometimes the spirit OF
mob violence broke forth and the
lower elements of the people gave
themselves to pillage and destruction.
The most serious disorders apparently
occurred at Odessa, where hundreds
of persons are reported to have been
killed or wounded and where the riot
ing is momentarily expected to flare
out into repetition of the slaughter
of last July, and at Kazan, where a
three days reign of terror was ended
only b" the retirement of all Cossacks
to their barracks.
A deplorable feature of the news
from the interior is that anti-Jewish
uprisings have occurred in many
places, especially in south Russia,
where the populace vented it's hatred
of the Jews by sacking their stores
and clubbing the members of the
race, in some cases resorting to the
torch
The attacks on the crowds are re-
ported to be in most cases the work of
Cossacks, who many times were ap-
parently let loose upon the people
| without direction or authority. In st.
Petersburg today, General Trepoff, in
accordance with his announcement of
last night, prevented the resumption
of revolutionary demonstrations by
having the crowds dispersed whenever
and wherever they gathered. KaZan
place and the Nevsky prospect were
several times cleared by Cossacks and
police and the crowds were driven
from the vicinity of the university with
whips and the fats of sabers. Gen
eral Trepoff was aided by the weather
which was cold and rainy and which
kept many persons off the streets.

ARRANGING FOR A
CONGRESS OF REPUBLICS

WASHINGTON - The executive
council OF the Bureau of American Re-
publics, representings AL the republics
Of Central, South and North America,
at meeting held in the state depart
ment, arranged for special session to
be held next Wednesday to consider
the expediency of sending out invita-
tions to the American republics and
to fix the time and the place for the
gathering. One conference was held
in Washington, about thirteen years
ago, and the second in Mexico, three
years ago. 1t is possible that the third
congress consequently will be held in
one of the larger republics of South
America, perhaps in Buenos Ayres,
Argentina.

HOW EMPEROR WILLIAM
STOOD WITH RUSSIA

BERLIN-Emperor William wrote
to Emperor Nicholas last winter sug-
costing that he grant Russia consti-
tuition that should include the right
of habeas corpus, upon which the Ger:
man emperor seemingly laid stress. In
succeeding letters Emperor William
followed up the subject, always TAX
ing the view that Emperor Nicholas
would find the labor of ruling Russia
simplified by sharing the responsible.
tiles with elected representatives.
The Russian emperor's manifesto
is received here with uncommon sat
isfaction in government quarters
where it is beliveed Russia. will now
enter upon period of constitutional
development.

RAILWAY AFFAIRS.
Mr.. Hartman discusser the construc-
ton Question.


NEW YORK-E. II. Hartman, pres
ident of the Union Pacific and South
enr Pacific railroads, discussed rail
way affairs as follows:
II think that we are running into
an era of competitive railroad build
ing, just as we have an era OF cempeti'
tive buying. The Union Pacific is
ready. 1t is In the best position OF any
of them. and the Union Pacific does
not fear nor does IL care.

tween the Ur,oH raei6c and the Chi

Is, we have started TO build au old

tried to stop us and we enjoined them.
1t is a small affair"
Speaking of his recent trip to Japan
and China, Mr.. Hartman said:
Japan is getting railroads and go
ing ahead to put them in shape to
bring about further development. The
money that has been collected from the
people is being nsed for their benefit.
THE Japanese are ambitious and be.
sides their railroad building they are
going to develop transportation by
water, and we will have to cooperate
with them or compete with them.
think we had better cooperate. They
are going to get their share OF the
transpacific business and get in their
own bottoms.
THE oriental countries can be di-
vded into two classes. Japan being
at present class by itself on the
principle of the country which helps
it's producers The other class takes
away from and hinders its producers,
and all the other countries are still in
this class. The little | saw In China,

however, convinced me that that coun-
try is going to open itself up as Japan
has already done. China is already
developing the railroad lines it has and
will have more. The Chinese are now
using their railroads instead of tearing
them down. Corea will have to be re-
organized and this will be done by the
Japanese. This means a future for
that country, too.

posal for a plebiscite diminishes the

be intrinsically as valuable as a mon
archial constitution, but he pointed
out that Norway being well estab

cHlLEANs PICK UP VESSEL.
Appropriate Abandoned German Ship
and Refuse to Give II Up.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-The Kos.
mos steamer Nelko arriving from the
south brought the report that the Ger
man ship Steinbeck had been approp-
rated by the Chileans. 1t was report
ed in dispatches some weeks ago that
the Steinbeck had gone ashore at Val
paraiso. 1t appears that the captain
and crew abandoned the vessels when
she seemed to be beyond saving and
after standing by in small boats they
went ashore. party of Chileans went
out to the vessel and took possession.
Subsequently when the Steiubeck
seemed to be safe the crew attempted
to go on board again. Having taken
possession of the ship at some risk to
themselves after she had been aban-
doned, the Chileans refused to give her
up and they were still in possession
when the Neko left Valparaiso. The
Steinbeck has valuable cargo on
board.
