LET HIM GO
MAYOR KlNsEY ORDERED CHIEF
MORGAN TO RELEASE A
DRUNKEN MAN WITH
OUTyTRIAl.


The police force. or at least part
of it. is considerably worked up over
an act by the mayor. Yesterday af,
ternon Chief Morgan found a man
who gave his name as Frank Brown
near the depot beastly drunk. So
drunk in fact that bystander had to
be called to assist the chief in getting
the fellow to jail.
It is said that the mans home is in
Webster, or near that place, and a
friend who accompanied him init
mated that Brown was a relative OF
the mayor. At any rate Mayor Kin
sey requested Chief Morgan to turn
i,im out last night. or course the
chief complied. Now the officers
claim that they do rot know whom to
arrest and whom to allow to go free
at the risk of displeasing the city
executive.
Joe Riley, minus one arm, was a
plain drunk arrested by Chief Morgan
yesterday Afternoon on Bridge street

J. English was taken in by Morris

ROOTS MISSION
TO RIO JANEIRo.
With South American
Countries.

/. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2s.--In pur.
suance OF his policy to establish
more friendly relations between the
United States and the countries OF
South ana Central America, 1t is an.
nounced that President Roosevelt will
commission Secretary Of State Root
to visit Brazil as the representative
of this country at the Third Interna.
tional Congress of American States.
This conference will be held at Rio
Janeiro at time yet to be selected,
but which is still some months In ad-
vance.
While the Secretary will go to Bra
I'll ostensibly to attend the confer
ence, his mission will be far more i'm
portant than the mere duties involved
as delegate from this country would
suggest. 1t is expected that he will
take the lead in carrying our great
plans OF foreign policy which the
President has conceived and hopes
to have soon under way. Secretary
Root will strive for better relations
between the American state under
the Monroe Doctrine. which. 1t is ex.
pected, he will make more clearly de.
fined and better understood than a,
present.
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Roosevelt to
make clear to these South and Central
American countries exactly what OBJ.
legations are entailed by the Monroe
Doctrine and, what protection is af.
forded. With this understanding, it
is believed. good relations between
the United States and those countries
south of them will be amplified and
great benefits result to all.
