Roosevelt Is Too Swift.

Washington, June l9.-It developed
today that President Roosevelt's chauf-
feur was overhauled for speeding yester-
day afternoon while carrying the Presi.
dent, his son, Theodore, and two of the
latter's friends along the conduit road
to Great Falls. Two police en-, con-
siderlng that the chauffer was going at
a speed greater than that allowed BY
law, gave chase and overhauled the
automobile. When they learned who
the occupants were they hastily with
drew after the President had cautioned
the chauf'er to slow up little.
The two policemen had pursued the
automobile for half mile, and, on
catching up with it, charged the chauf-
feur with running at the rate of 25 miles
an hour when the police regulations
permit but 15 miles an hour. The
policemen informed the chauffeur that
he would be required to appear in the
Police Court today, when the President,
who was in the rear seat. inquired the
reason, the latter's identity by this
time becoming known. the matter was
dropped.
Because of complaints of reckless rid
ing, Major Sylvester, the Chief of Police,
had cautioned the officers along the
road to watch for offenders. When the
policemen started after the automobile,
the chauffeur. it is thought, probably
concluded it was part Of the programme
for the protection OF the President.

at the forbidding black letters on the
fence and climbed over it.
Halfway down the field was little
clump of pines through which the
stream flowed. Baxter entered the
shadows of the trees, and scarcely had
he cast when his reel whirred merrily
and the line cut the water sharply.
His pulses quickened. Here was fish
ing worth talking about The line
slackened, and he began to reel in
gently.
At that moment the bushes behind
him cracked. and a calm voice said:
Pardon me. but have you a per-
mit?"
Baxter gave 10 heed until he had
landed the trout; then he turned to
find himself face to face with young
woman. She was regarding him stead

a crocl hung from a broad strap across
her shoulder, and she carried an un-

Baxter had momentarily forgotten
words recalled it to his mind. He was
evidently caught redharIed at his
pOaching, and the only thing to do was
to frankly admit 1t. He looked at the
girl before him. She WIS tall, well
formed and undeniably attractive. In
deed she was quite striking as she
stood there calmly awaiting his reply.
You have permit, of course?" she
asked again.
Baxter smiled quietly.

The girl lifted her brows

ward, about year and half ago,

feating the franchise asked by the
Los Angeles telephone company, and
enclosing a check for $4,000 as COM
pensation therefor" is the sworn
statement that has been made to the
district attorney, by witness who
was called to testify in the investi-
cation now in progress and to con-
tinue which a grand jury will prob
ably be called.
The Thatcher letter. says the
Journal, was written on stationery
of the telephone company, enclosed
with the check in an envelope which
inadvertently was left unsealed, and
q messenger boy was called TO carry
it to Rumelin's office.
THE messenger boy. possessed Of
the usual inquisitiveness, opened the
envelope and read the letter. Then
he delivered il to the councilman,
and the check was cashed; Rumelin
retained the money as his personal
reward for having carried through
the plan to defeat the franchise"
This charge is based on the under
standing that, If the allegations be
true that have been lodged with the
district attorney. Rumelin was the

franchise, against the granting of

observing part of the strange cere-
monv of flagellatiOn. At Longs canon
a large party, including a number of
prominent young society women, saw
them 90 through the ceremonies
which precede the flagellation. They
saw several men who had undergone
punishment, and one Mexican
coming out of the hills with his
naked back raw from beating. He
had cut his back between his Shout
ders with the lash.
Old residents tell that when the
services were carried on in years
gone by a lager was tied point in
ward over the heart of some fanatic
on Good Friday. and he then went
through the fagellation process at the
hands of his fellows, carrying huge
cross until he fell from exhaustion

Other stories of physical self-torture
that are almost unbelievable are told,
but il was supposed that of late
years the ceremonies had undergone
such modification that nothing like

the passage of the franchise ordi-
nance met with organized opposition.
According to the evidence, Rumelin
was in charge of the plan to defeat
it before the council.
When the matter was brought to
the attention of the council, the new
company was informed that the bust
ness men of Portland did not want

two systems would entail additional
expense on all houses, and the senti-

Notwithstanding this petition,

records at the city hall show that it
