Some time ago President Roosevelt re-
ceived picture Of peculiar Masonic sig
nificance from Henry L. Redaeld Of Brook
lyn, deputy grand master, F. A. A. NJ It
was presented to him at Oyster Bay and he
acknowledged 1t in the following letter.
My Dear Brother Redie.d: 1 value the
gift of the picture greatly, and l am very
much interested in, and very much touched
by, the story of the circumstances con-
nected with 1t. / wish it were possible that
this story could be sent to every Masonic
lodge In our country. Will you convey to
Inc, committee, and especially to Brothers
Dubey and Mosscrop. my cordial thanks
for their fraternal courtesy?'
The picture had both Masonic and patri-
otlc import. Capt Thomas d. Mosscrop,
Capt. X. A. Dimick and Corporal Edward
A. Dudley were Brooklyn members of the
10th New York Cavalry. All three were
badly wounded in the second battle Of Bull
Run, and all were rescued and placed In
the hands of a confederate surgeon because
they belonged to the Masonic order, an
emblem discovered in the lapel of the coat
OF Capt. Mosscrop being the means of iden-
tlfcation. AT a recent meeting of the So
ciety of the Army of the Potomac at Ma

some of the residents, located the spot
where he and his comrades fell, and it is

VIII the United States and Canada ever
get together? 1t has been the dream of
MANY an American statesman, and there
have been two or three foolhardy attempts
by irresponsible mobs on each side to &C.
complsh the thing by force. We may as
we'll eliminate that notion forever. Forcible
annexation of Canada could only happen IN
case of war between the two great English
speaking nations of the world, and 1t would
be difficult to conceive a greater crime
against civilization and humanity than that.
If Canada shall ever become one with us 1t
will be by means of amicable union, because
in the opinion of the statesmen of the Unit
ed States, Canada and the British empire
such union is better for all concerned.
From the American point of view 1t would
unquestionably be better. but the British
people have not yet come to that view, and
such a proposition would be met with more
violent opposition in Canada than anywhere
else. Yet there is natural grayitation 'that

Department Half Holiday to Begin
Saturday.

Unless the President shall order other
wise, which Is not regarded as at all prob
able, all the eecutive departments in
Washington will close at l o'clock next
Saturday afternoon and will continue to
do so each succeeding Saturday during the
months of July, August and September.
Early in January, 1904 the President and
his cabinet gave careful consideration to
the question Of hours of labor in the gov
ernment departments at Washington, and
as a result orders were issued fixing the
hours of labor from 0 am. to 4:3O p.m.,
with the exception that the hours of labor
on Saturdays during the months of July,
August and September should be from 8
a. m. to 1 pm without any allowance for
luncheon"
The system inaugurated at that time has
been faithfully observed ever since and
there Is no reason to believe that any
change is to be made during the present
summer.
The existing orders governing the hours
of labor are contained in an Identical cir
cular issued by the heads of each executive
department under date of January g. 1901
as follows:
THE act of Congress of March 10, 1888,
provides as follows: That 1t shall
be the duty Of the heads of the several
executive departments, in the interest of
the public service, to require of all clerks
and other employees of whatever grade or
class in their respective departments, not
less than seven hours of labor each day
except Sundays and days declared public
holidays by law or executive order: Pro-
vided, That the heads of the departments
may by special order, stating the reason,
further extend the hours of service of any
clerk or employe in their departments, re-
spectively; but in case of extension it shall
be without additional compensation"
'In order more effectually to comply with
the above provision of law, it is hereby
ordered:
IL On and after Monday, January IL.
1904, the hours of labor for all clerks and
other employees of whatever grade or class
in this department will be from am to
4:30 pm, with an allowance of one-half
hour for luncheon.
'2. The foregoing provision will apply
to all Saturdays except during the months
Of July, August and September During
those months the hours of labor on Satur-
days unless otherwise ordered, will be from

THREATENED CHINESE BOYCOTT.
Another Appeal From the Portland
Chamber of Commerce.

PORTLAND, Ore, June 24.-President w.
d. Wheelwright of the Portland chamber
of commerce said today that the 1nforma-
ton which actuated the sending of a tele-
graphic appeal to President Roosevelt for
more liberal administration of the Chinese
exclusion laws was received yesterday In
cable dispatch from Hongkong, and the
information was deemed of such Importance
that the attention of the government was
called to it. 1t was said that the Chinese
threat OF boycott on American goods was
made in all earneStness, and was already
being carried out. On further consdera-
uon the chamber of commerce today dis
patched another message to President
Roosevelt, as follows:
I'VE supplement our telegram of yesterday
by suggesting respectfully that certificates
issued In China according to law and duly
revised by the American consul be respected
by the immigration authorities in this coun-
try and accepted as final. This is in line
with the recent public utterances of the

reason exists for the belief that Mr..

will cease to be the local prosecut-

that his successor may be named at

day afternoon and the question of
Mr.. Beach's retention was gone
over then more fully than at any
time heretofore. In official quar-
ters the positive statement is made
that no action has been taken, but
that decision will probably be
reached Monday. Such action is
contingent, it is said, upon whether
Mr.. Beach resigns or not.
Denies That He Will Resign.
About ten days ago 1t was stated that
Mr.. Beach contemplated resigning. When
asked about the matter he denied that 1t
was his intention to leave, explaining that
he had given consideration to an offer to
engage in the practice of law in New York
city, but finally decided not to accept the
same. The assertion that he did not intend
to resign was repeated late yesterday.
Rumors have continued in circulation
notwithstanding the failure of United States
Attorney Beach to confirm them, that 1t
was the intention to make a change in the
office. Eigor added to the rumors by
the knowledge that the Attorney General
and even the President were considering
possible successors to Mr.. Beach.
