His Praise of Publication Used to
Promote Sales of Corpora
ton Stock.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-President
Roosevelt to-day withdrew a letter
which he wrote last March extending
to the American .Newsboys' Magazine
his wishes for it's success. The with
drawal of the Presidents letter was
announced in the form of a letter
which the President wrote on the 7th
inst. to Murat Halstead, who was
president of the company which is to
publish the magazine. The letter of
the President to Mr.. Halstead follows
in part:
Dear Mr.. Halstead: an advised that you
0f e
contemplate Withdrawing your connection
with it.
After quoting in full the letter
which he wrote last March to Colonel
E. o. Stealey, then editor Of the
magazine, the President continues:
AS you will note this letter is couched in
general terms, but II has been used to exploit
this company Certain facts have come to me
as to the character OF certain persons inter
ested in the corporation. as well as the meth.
stock. which make me unwilling longer to
permit the use of my name in connection with
tie enterprise. May / ask you to look care
fully into the matter and write me your views /?
will not have any letter OF mine used In
connection with any concern which Is in any
way tainted even though this letter refers
more to a general movement than to any par
ticular scheme.
In response to this letter Halstead
wrote to the President that he intend
ed to withdraw from the company.
To-day the President, in addition to
authorizing the publication of the cor
respondence, took steps to insure the
withdrawal of his letter of March last.

Presidents Executive Order Arbi-
trary and Restrictive.
WASHINGTON, Jan. TO- The
House Committee on Reform in the
Civil Service to-day authorized fav-
orabie report on the resolution intro
duced by Representative Hearst call
ing on the President for "all reports,
documents, papers and orders show
ing the executive action relating to
political activity by letter carriers
mentioned in his last annual message
and the grounds therefor" also direct
ing the Postmaster General to commu-
nicate to the House all facts bearing
upon the dismissal of James c. kal-
Ter, Frank Cunningham, Warren
Tumber and II. w. Aldrich and the
grounds for their dismissal.
Hearst was heard by the committee.
He thought the Presidents executive
order prohibiting political activity
was arbitrary and restrictive 1t
abridged not only the conduct Of car
riers, he said, but also the conduct of
memfers of Congress. Personally, he
liked to talk with the carriers from
his district and in his opinion the suc-
cessful Congressman was the one who
met their demands properly.

DIR. HARPER DECLARES FEW
PERSONS ARE TRUSTWORTHY
Majority of Mankind, He Says, Needs
Urging to Be Held to Its
Duties

CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-Dr. Harper.
president of Chicago University, in
his weekly Junior college chapel lee
ture to-day. said that not more than
20 per cent of his audience was en-
tirely and fully responsible and trust
worthy at all times.
"I do not mean that you are ire
sponsible morally. but that most of
us need some urging-something out
side ourselves-to hold us exactly to
our duties" he said.
DR.. Harper declared that college
did more to build character than II
did to give education.

~HERRIN'S NAME ALARMS.

Tomorrow will probably tell, how
ever, and If the break which Flint's
forces claim will come does come, the
pleasant opportunity to speculate will
have passed into history. Every point
that might have a possible bearing on
the situation is being eagerly seized
by the opposing forces, so closely are
the lines drawn.
Those that are not specially favored
by the railroad were aghast tonight
when the word went out that William
F. Herrin had arrived in the city to
direct the closing engagement of the
fight. A hurried investigation, how
ever disclosed the fact that the Mr..
Herrin that did arrive was not William
F. but William j., a lawyer of San
Francisco. who does not look unlike
the astute railroad manipulation. So
things quieted down to the same old
level

witnessing one Of the most ENJOYABLE
performances which will be seen at the
Grand Opera House this season. The
play to be given is Robert Louis Ste

piece, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde"
This play has stood the test OF time, as
only few of our most successful plays
have done, and this, its sixteenth year,
finds it playing to even larger audiences
than ever before. An entirely new
scenic production has been furnished
for this season. The same plumber OF
people continue to appear in the cast
and each member of the company has
been seIecled with the usual regard for
special fitness for the role he or she
pOrtravs. Every effort has been made
by the management to keep the COM
pany and production up to the standard
of excellence, which has always been
maintained and which has so materi
ally aided in the success of this attrac-
ton Prices %. 80 and so cents: seats
