New York, Sept. 30.-John D. Rookie
Teller, Jr., will be present at the open
ing of his Bible class tomorrow. The
rumors of his retirement from the
Standard Oil company are unfounded.
The stories Of a rupture between
father and son which have been talked
of by members Of his Bible class are
based on the fact that Mr.. Rockefeller
has not visited his father since last
spring, tho he has been in constant
communication with him. ,@..
A careful investigation, however,
does not bear out the fact that father
and son have had, any disagreement be-
yond occasional little friendly. argu
| ments relative to the wise distribution
| of charitable requests.
When young Mr.. Rockefeller was IL
Paris last spring, it is said, he wa
very much impressed by. the benevolen
bequ of Baron Rothschild for i'm
proved dwellings for the poor, and hi
went to New York with the idea strong
in his mind that his fathers millions

While no official announcement has

no chairs for them and the ambassador

what seemed an interminable time until

BY w. W., JERMANE.

Washington, Sept. 3O.-The president
has returned to Washington for half a
month of strenuous work prior to his
southern trip. Important matters have
been postponed at Oyster Bay until his
return to the capital and these matters
will now crowd in upon the executive
officer in a fast and fairly furious
fashion.
A matter that will receive early at
tention is the proposed Beavers compro,,
mise. The former superintendent Of
salaries and allowances in the postof-
fee department has signifed a desire to
plead guilty to one or more counts in
the Indictments against him, and serve
q sentence Of three years in prison, pro
vided the other indictments are dis
missed.
Beavers has arranged with his wife
so that she will look after his business
during his period of enforced retire
ment, and all that remains to be done to
complete the transaction is securing the
president s consent.
Protest from Druggists.
A wagon load of protests and petit
tions from wholesale and retail drug
associations and patent medicine manu-
facturers of the country will await the
president $ early consideration. These
have been called forth by an order OF
the internal revenue bureau that after
Dec. l all medicines containing high
percentage of alcohol may not be solo
unless the selling agencies, in this case
drug stores, first take out a retail deal

The retail profit in these medicines
is great, sometimes as much as 400 pei
cent, and in addition to being unwil

do not want to be made the mark fol-
prohibition cranks in all the small
cities and towns Of the country.
