LOEB To VISIT ROOSEVELT.
Awaits Coming of Courier to Conduct

Glenwood Springs, Colo, April IT,
Before President Roosevelt penetrates
the wilds SO far that communication
with the outside world will be next
to impossible, Secretary Loeb, with
the aid of courier, daily expected
from the camp, will get on the Presi-
dents trail and visit him in the noun
tains. The visit will be to take up
with the President a number of i'm
portant affairs that have come to the
headquarters since Saturday. There
are a number of commissions to be
signed, as we'll as some departmental
business that has been forwarded for
attention.
Many invitations have come to
Secretary Loeb and members of the
official party staying at the Hotel
Colorado to take excursions into the
surrounding region in order to view
sights of interest. All of these have
been declined or postponed until the
arrival of the first courier from the
President.
Secretary Loeb discredits most of
the stories of the hunt which have
reached him. Several of these stories
have been investigated and Secretary
Loeb concluded that the tale bearer
could not have received reliable in
formation from the Presidents camp.

telegraph line which runs through a
wild mountainous country and then
attached telegraph instrument to the
wire, using stump as a table. An
assistant then posed for a picture,
which it is said, is to show how news
is obtained from the Presidents
camp. There is no telegraph lines
within miles of the original camp of
the party, so far as known to the
Presidents party at Colorado Springs
The hunters intend to roam a large
area covering probably $50 miles be-

Use OF 4 French Port.
(By the Associated Press


Toxic, April lit is calculated
here that the Russian squadron arriv-
ed at Kamranh Bay at noon April IL
and therefore had been occupying the
port forty-eight hours when seen at
noon April IA.
The information received egarding
vessels of the Russian squadron be-
ing seen at Kamranh Bay April Ii
reached Toxic today and was given to
the public through a brief communi-
cation from the Navy Department.
The news was a surprise because it
was generally doubted that France
would permit the use of her ports to
belligerent squadron engaged in often
sive operations. The Japanese gov
eminent is silent on the subject of its
intentions, but it is expected that it
will make immediate representations
to France The response of France is
eagerly awaited, particularly as to
whether France admits the squadron
is within territorial waters. France
denied that the Russian squadron was
within territorial waters when off
Madagascar. If she denies it in this
instance it will give Japan opportunity
to attack the Russian vessels without
violating Frances neutrality. Many
people continue to believe the Russian
squadron will speedily leave KAN.

st. Petersburg, April 17.--11:55 a.
m.-The news that vessels of the Rus
sian squadron have put into Kamranh
Bay. north of Cape Padaran, off the
east coast of Cochin-China, bears out
statements contained in these dis
patches a week ago to the effect that
Admiral Rojestvensky probably would
seek shelter off that part of the
Cochin-China coast, and there coal
and make his final preparations before
embarking on the last stage of his
Journey. No definite information is
obtainable as to the length of the
suuadron's stay at Karranh Bay or
whether the warships have already
sailed the Admiralty even if it knows
being naturally silent on this point.
No confirmation has been received
here of the reported naval engage
ment north of the Natuna Islands
which, according to the British steam
er Telemachus, which has just arrived
at Hong Kong, took place $50 miles
north of the Natuna Islands on April

A high admiral expressed to the
Associated Press today the first con-
viction that Admiral Togo would not
give battle near the Pescadore Islands,

to concentrate his squadron 500

Long before the time appointed for
the distribution of free tickets, the
stairs of Masonic Temple at the south
west corner of Washington street and
Capitol Avenue, were crowded with q
pushing, yelling crowd of children
mostly newsboys, each anxious to be
first to receive a pass. When the dis
tribution began the excitement became
more intense and the efforts of sew
eral policemen to maintain order were
unaVailing.
1t is alleged by a witness that one
of the boys in an endeavor to hasten
the exit of those who had received
passes, shouted "fire!" Immediately
those at the top of the stairs faced
about and madly began to force a way
to the bottom of the steps. ShriekS
and physical encounters followed and
those at the top became so closely
entangled that the mass of boys fell,
clinging to each other in the strug-

Policemen from Central Station re-

crush or were hurt by the subsequent
scramble for air.
