ROOSEVELT BAN
ON 0DELL men
President Will Not Recognize
Any Friend of the New
York Boss.
journal Special Service.

sOuEual 1poClaA 0erV1Ce,
Washington, Dec. 27.-No New. York
present fight going on for the reorgan-
ization for the party in the empire state
will receive any recognition whatever
from President Roosevelt.
This is the edict that has gone from
the White House. The president con-
siders that Odell has gone out Of his
way to precipitate personal fight
against him, and he is to meet the issue
without hesitation and by employing
every possible legitimate means to down
the Newburgh boss.
The president g attitude as here out
sons who are interested It will be
communicated to New York politicians,
SO that there can be no more doubt
about it than there was that the presi-
dent favored Mr.. Parsons for president
Of the New York county committee and
Mr.. Wadsworth for speaker
The president takes the position that
Odell has made compromise impossible
by an attack upon him and that the
fight is to be waged to finish. The
president has gone into this fight just
as he has into many another-with all
the vim and energy at his command.
AS one of the means Of separating
those who are for Odell from those who
! are against him, 1T has been decided
that none Of the Odell followers or sym
pathizers shall receive any recognition
whatever at the White House,
This policy has been applied in the
case Of Robert. A. Sharkey of Brooklyn
While the president did not tell Michae
/ j. Dady on Saturday that Sharkey
would not be reappointed, the latter!
chances of continuing in office are
about one in a thousand, to use the
words Of a man who has talked with tn,
| president about this case.
If Mr.. Dady came to the White Hous,
in the expectation that the presiden
/ would suggest Sharkey s reappointmen
worth s speakership chances, he wa
disappointed. The president did no
once refer TO the speakership fight dur
/ ing his talk with the Brooklyn poll

CHINESE WOULD
REDRESS WRONGS
Irritation Toward Foreigners
Grows and There Is Talk of
Extending Boycott. i

Picking, Dec. 27.-The most conserva-
tive and best informed foreigners agree
in expressing apprehension at the con-
nese against foreigners which for
months has been spreading thru the
country.
"China for the Chinese summarizes
the objects of the movement, among
the chief promoters of which are male
students educated abroad, and news
papers conducted by Chinese who have
These papers are beginning to gain
great influence.
The anti American boycott has been
followed by discussion of China g
wrongs at the hands Of foreigners gen
orally and determination to redress
them. The hostility first shown against
Americans s., has nov now extended to all for
the result of the boycott in producing
conciliatory orders from President
Roosevelt, but the boycott is nc wise
ended and it is asserted here, continues
seriously to affect American trade In
the Canton and Yange-tse regions.
The Chinese are so satisfied with the
movement that they are talking of the
national armory. The newspapers adj
vocate the boycott of Indian opium
because of the action of the British
assessor of the mixed court at Shang-
hal in ordering the imprisonment of
Chinese women in the municipal Jail
instead of in the Chinese prison, which
caused the recent disturbances at
Shanghai.
One result of the present movement
is to discourage concession hunting.
The government has adopted a policy
of Chinese control of railroads, mines
and similar enterprises, refuses to grant
gain or annul several concessions prev
| iously granted. While many foreigners
sympathize with the object of the agi-
! tation they realize the danger of in
| fammatory speeches and articles in the
newspapers leading to mob uprislngs
| like that at Shanghai and the recent
massacres of American missionaries at
/ Lien-chau.
I Regarding the Shanghai incident the
ministers of the powers have prae-
tically decided that the municipal Off
GERS exceeded their rights under the
treaties and will direct them to re-
cede from their position. There is no
doubt that the aggressive spirit OF
the Chinese has been decidedly In
creased by the late war and the sue
cessful maneuvers Of the Chinese north
ern army in October. Japan 8 victory
has encouraged the Chinese to believe
that they could be equally successful
Foreigners living in cities where, the
government is strong are assured OF
Protection, out the danger of the pres
emit situation lies in the possible fric
ton between foreigners and Chinese
where the officials are weak or 1ndltfer
emit, leading to further outbreaks.

MCCALL ON THE GRILL
New York Life's Head Quizzed About
Hamilton Report.

New York, Dec. 27.-fOr three hours
and half the members of the house
cleaning committee Of the ! New eN.u; York
John A. Mccall before them yesterday
while they went over the report made by
Andrew Hamilton, which was brought
to this country from Paris on Saturday
by young John G.. Mccall
Following are the main fractures OF
the report:
First, Hamilton admits that he may
owe the New York Life money, and
that his account with the company is
"open,2 because of his failure to rem
der statement heretofore OF all the
moneys he has received.
Second, he offers to place in escrow
100000 cash from his own private
funds, pending final adjustment of
his account. Any sum which it may be
decided he owes the company is to be
paid to the New York Life out of the
100000 fund.
Not an Accounting.
Third, the Hamilton report is not a
specific financial accounting. He does
not give detailed facts about all mon
eys he has received from the company
or about the payments he has made.
Fourth, Hamilton does not give the
names or reveal the identity Of the per-
sons to whom he made payments.
Fifth, Hamilton asserts that in con-
nection with legislation in the interest
of the New York Life it was neces-
sary for him to make payments to per-
sons who were not lawyers and that
under no circumstances would he re-
veal the names Of those persons. This
| was interpreted as an admission that
payments were made to legislators or
go-betweens who represented members
Of the legislature.
Sixth, the report. consists chiefly of
| immense payments which Hamilton
alleges he made out of the funds given
| him by President Mccall.
Mccall Summoned.
Because of the absence Of details the
house-cleaning committee summoned
Mr.. Mccall to attend it's meeting and
explain if possible the many gaps in
the Hamilton report. .
After the meeting there were two
conflicting reports of the attitude OF
the committee toward Mr.. Mccall and
the Hamilton statement.
One report had it that the committee
was not at all pleased with the Hamil
on the grill for more than three hours
The other report was to the effect that
Mr.. Mccall was not treated in hostile
way by the committee and that it was
very well pleased with Hamilton Z
statement.
Should Hamilton 8 offer to put 800,
900 in escrow as an offset to any claim
which the company may have agains
him, be accepted, it will relieve job,

BODILY Inquiry.

A man familiar with what Hamilton
did as legislative agent Of the New
York Life and who learned today the
contents Of his report, said that the
only way to definitely show who got
the money would be thru "boodle' -
investigation. A "boodle' investiga-
tion, he added, would never be per
mitted by the powers in Albany, be-
cause at least fifty men, some Of them
Of considerable prominence, would be
involved and probably disgraced for
life. -.

THE CONFEDERATE REUNION.

The next annual reunion Of the
United Confederate Veterans will
take place in Louisville, KY, on
Wednesday, Thursday, and Fri
day, June IA, Is and Is, 1905. The
magnificent reception given to the
y. G. w., in that city in 1900, is a
guarantee of most royal recep-
ton to the old vets in 1905. Ac-
tive preparations have been going
on for several months by the pa
triotic and enterprising citizens Of
that wide-awake city to make the
coming reunion a grand and glo-
rious success in every respect, and
there is no doubt that their efforts
will be crowned with success. The
railroads will make a special low
rate for the occasion, and already
the old soldiers from every State
in the Union are making prepara-
tons to attend. Many of the
Camps have already selected their
delegates and clubs are being form
ed in many localities to attend in
a body. The United Daughters OF
the Confederacy and Sons OF the
Confederate Veterans, and other
kindred organization, will be on
hand in full force.

The following clipping is taken
from the Louisiana Planter, OF
date April %, 1905. 1t is an ad-
dress made by Mr.. John Dymond,
before the Louisiana Sugar
Planters Association, which con-
vened in New Orleans on April Is,
relative TO the cane-cutting ma
chine, invented by Mr.. Jules
Gaussiran, who is too well known
in St. Mary to need any introduce
ton. The clipping follows:
Mr.. President, l can say few
words for MIR. Gaussiran's machine.
We experimental with it: in the begin
ming it was not very satisfactory. from
the fact that we did not know how to
hitch it up-did not know just the
points OF difficulty that might arise
and when those were explained to us,
We had no particular trouble at all.
As has already been brought before
this association several times, this
machine OF Mr. Gaussiran's is adapt
ed to the cutting of the canes them
selves, but without any stripping or
topping. We used it for our cane
seed and saved about twenty-five hun
dred tons.with one of his machines,
and saving 'suse sape six or eight

which was done by this machine with |
six mules and two men. His machine |
