ROOSEVELT OVERRULED
By the Directors of the Bureau of
 American Republics.

Washington, April 22.-For the past two weeks the governing board of the bureau of American republics has been trying to select a successor to William C. Fox as chief clerk, he having been promoted to be director. The promo tion in his case was at the instance of President Roosevelt and the ratifica- tiOn of his choice was not accomplished without some difficulty, owing to the belief on the part of the governing board that they alone had the right to fill the oces of tha bureau.
 When it came to the selection of the chief clerk this feeling grew much stronger as it was learned that the president again had a choice for this place in the person of Gordon Cum mings, at present an employe of the census office and a prominent figure in Washington society. Led by the rep of Mexico and Chile an organization was effected which tri- umphed today at a meeting of the governing board when Vim. c. Wells. of the District of Columbia was select ed receiving eight votes as against five votes for MT. Cummings.

The Government Pledges Its Undivided Support
HE CONSENTS TO REMAIN
His Policy With Respect to Morocco Will Remain Unchanged SO That Germany's Supposed Victory Is Still to Be Accomplished.

Paris, April 22.-Yielding to the per- sonal solicitations and representations of President Loubet and the leaders of the government that his retirement would be a serious matter at this time. M. Delcasse today advised Premier Rouvier that he would withdraw his resignation as foreign minister. This was after strong assurances had been made to M. Delcasse that the ministry would support his foreign policy.
 During the conference today between the president and ROuvied and Del casse, the latter said he would retain the portfolio of foreign affairs only in case the entire cabinet approved his foreign policy, which he would carry out according to his own views.
 The authority necessary to carry on negotiations with the powers was in effective if such negotiations led to reservations or divergencies among the members of the cabinet. The purposes of the intended cabinet meeting was to remove every doubt in the mind of the foreign minister concerning the loyalty to support him. Delcasse finally gave as his answer today that he would re- main.
 AS a result of his decision the spe- cial cabinet council which was called to meet this afternoon was abandoned. Delcasse's staying in the cabinet is ex- pected to result in a firmer attitude to- ward Germany than heretofore has

A RELIEVED SITUATION.
France at Last Secures the Removal of
 the TrouhIeeome Fleet.

Paris, April 22.-Of1cials here main tain that the gravity of the Franco Japanese issue over neutrality has been much relieved by the vigorous mea- sures which France has adopted. Elm peror Nicholas orders to Vice Admir- al Rojestvensky to leave French waters are the direct result To have the emperor give decisive order, it is held here. signifies that such an order must be Obeyed, whereas Vice Admiral Ro- jestvensky has exercised his personal discretion as to observing orders en- anating from the Russian admiralty concerning French waters off the coast of Madagascar.
 It is the official application of the or der that the departure of the squadron should occur today. However, it is recognized that delays might occur in getting the emperor's order to Rojestvensky as it took four days for Rojestvensky's last telegram to reach St. Petersburg. This is due to the remote and desolate character of Kamranh Bay Heretofore Kamranh Bay has been an unknown spot, all though an adventurous Frenchman, the Marquis de Munville. has established a small colony there. The marquis uses the colony as base for hunting eXpe- ditions and for carrying on a consid- erable trade with coast points. Except for this primitive settlement Kamranh Bay has no habitation, no telegraph. no customs house and no official establish ment of any kind.

 It is said that some members of the cabinet share the view that a grave fs- sue with Germany might result from too firm insistence on the French Nor roccan policy. and NJ Rouvle- is also credited with the desire not to have the Moroccan issue drift into daneer- ous complications Only the socialists and radicals openly ex5lressed thf- view in the chamber of deputies. but the more influential sentiment was that immediately surrounding Del casse.
 He felt therefore that it was useless to proceed without the strong support of his colleagues representing the Eov- ernment, and if a 5emporIzing poIic, with Germany was desired some one else should assume the responsibility Consequently his offer To resign was interpreted. as a triumph for Germany
 
 is interpreted as a check 10 German designs The feeling over Germany naturally has become more acute as a result of the incident Many deputfes who have been interviewed on the sub ject say that Delcasse's resignation ur this time would be equivalent Co France making an open and humiliat- ing concession to Germany. The cab inets course in giving united support to Delcasse assures him a strong moral backing in continuing the Moroccan policy. He has already opened over lures with the German ambassador de- signed to give Germany ample eNplan- ation- Germany has not ye, shovel an intention to respond 10 these over lures. While continuing this concilia- tory attitude. Delcasse fc now in a po- sition to resist Germany's apparent purpose to secure the complete aband- onment of the French Moroccan pol icy.

Franco-Japanese incident which says: While Japan's anxiety is naturally great over the approach of the Russian squadron, yet Japanese public opinion seems to have given proof of too much emotion and sensitiveness. The facts concerning the presence of the Russian squadron in Kamranh Bay have not been exactly known and nothing indi- cates our intention to disregard the known facts. Nevertheless Japan shows great public enervescence. The Jap anese press comments freely, and pub lie meetings have been organized to denounce our supposed hostile attitude toward Japan It is surprising that such things should occur in a country where one hardly expects to see street opinion substituted for di plomacy."
 The general tone of the press com ment here has been mild with a few unimportant exceptions, such as to- nights issue of the irresponsible Patrie which makes a violent attack upon Japan.

Chadwick pending the hearing of her application to the circuit court of appeals, as was previously announced il would be done on this date. At the conclusion of the conference between former Judge Wing and Mrs. Chadwick at the county jail. the latter said that it had been decided not to offer bail until after the final hearing of bank ruptcy proceedings against her. This hearing will take place before Referee Remington on May ?.
 Mrs. Chadwick declared she was pre- pared to give the required 2,000 surety at any time. Her attorneys, however, she said believed it best to delay securing her release until after the bankruptcy hearing is completed. Mrs. Chadwick said today that at this hearing she would give all information that would in any way aid her at tOrneyS

NEvER TOUCHED JuLY.

Chicago, April 22.-Wheat for May | sold here today at 99 I-2 q bushel. a l sheer decline of II 1-2 from the clos | ing quotations on Thursday the last ! previous session of the board of trade. Excitement seldom paralleIed accom- 1 panied the sensational slump. The cause of the break was an apparent | abandonment of the supposed gigantic effort of John w. Gates and, other Wall street men to corner the trade in May
 wheat.
 Today as on Thursday, millions of | bushels of May wheat were thrown on
 the market. As a result the price of
 the May option started downward in- stantly when the gong sounded for the beginning of business. The wild down.
 ward plunge continued throughout the day with the exception of one or two slight rallies. During the last mom- ents of trading one of the few upturns occurred and the final figure was sI a bushel
 Under support from Armour and company, the July option in wheat ex- perienced only a small loss, the net decline for the day being 5-S. Corn oats and provisions were wholly un- disturbed by the furry of the closing prices today being practically identi- cal with the latest quotations of Thurs day.
 It seemed to most traders to be evi- dent from the start that the Gates CO., terie had withdrawn the support from May wheat. The opening quotations on May were off 1 to cents at 1OS to 1Og July was a shade lower to an eighth and a quarter higher at S7 3-S to S7 5-S. Within five minutes May sold tn wheat was offered for sale but the on- ly buyers appeared to be traders with special lines to cover Houses that have heretofore been presumably operating for the sOcalled Wall street crowd were heavy sellers today from the outset
 At the same time the July option was in active demand from Armour This condition of affairs was coincident with report that the representatives of Gates and Armour at a secret meet ing had made a joint agreement to hquidate the May holdings and switch into the July option, thus forming the basis for a deal in July wheat by means of which any possible loss from the at tempted squeeze" in May might be offset.
 With startling rapidity the price of May kept tumbling headIong, giving hardly so much as breathing time to the traders who had been caught on the wrong side of the market The scenes in the pit were among the wild est ever witnessed on the floor, traders shouting themselves frantic in an ef- fort to make or break prices. The low est point of the day was reached a few minutes before the close, the price touching 9S 1-2, a clean drop of Il 1-2 cents from Thursdays final quotations The clang of the bell at the close busi- ness, however. caught the market at the additionally magic ideal s1 a bushel. The close for July was firm at SC 3-4 and 7-S.
 July corn opened unchanged to a shade higher at 475s @% to 47A, sold off 47@s and closed at 47%.

Japan'S Note to France
 Was not a Protest
A SIMPLE NOTIFICATION
That the Russian Second Pacific Squadron Was Where It Ought Not to Belt Has Moved and the InCi- dent Has Ended.

London, April 22-Baron Hayashi, the Japanese minister to Great Britain said to the Associated Press today: ''I do not think the Japanese note to the French government could be term ed a protest. It simply calls the atten- tion of France to Vice Admiral Ro- jestvensky's stay in Kamranh Bay. Un- fortunately the discussion of the mat ter occupied considerable time before French government secured riddance of unwelcome guests and serious in jury might have been done.
 Japan knows that the French gov crnment was not an active party to the harboring of the Russian Pacific squadron, but the inactivity of France had reached a serious stage and We would have been perfectly justified in attacking the Russian squadron in Kamranh Bay The three mile rule under which France defends her in activity was within the distance recog- nized as shore waters when three miles was the maximum range of guns. The range of big guns today is twenty

Glenwood Springs. Colo, April 22.- Camp Roosevelt was today transferred from the east to the west divide. Pres ident Roosevelt and party, according to a report received here tonight, were up early and taking their tents on their backs, started for the Will Gregor ranch which is just 20 miles from New Castle.
 They have pitched their camp on the banks of the West Divide creek and will remain there until some time next week. On account of the distance from town President Roosevelt will in all probability decline the invitation to at tend church in New Castle tomorrow.

Sensational IunbIing Down
 of the May Option
WILD SCENES IN CHICAGO
The Wall Street Crowd Represented by Gates Got out From Under and There Was a Fall of Il I-2 Cents. Hay now Stands at SI.

Chicago, April 22.-One of the most celebrated deals ever known on the Chicago board of trade came to a cli- max today. daring effort by John w. Gates and associates to control all of the wheat available in America for delivery during the month of May was apparently ended today with a whole sale sacrifice of prospective profits to escape possible huge losses on exist ing investments. Incidentally the re- suit was one of the widest sessions ever witnessed in the Chicago wheat pit. At one time prices showed a loss of II 1-2 cents a busheI for the day. the price of options being driven down in sensational series of rushes to 9S 12c per bushel. The closing quota tion was s1 as against SIPS less than six weeks ago.
 The general opinion tonight Is to the effect that Gates and his friends emerged from the battle with little if any actual loss. Gossip insists that they effected an alliance with Armour and other leading traders whereby the Gates party, while obliged summarily to liQuidate May wheat on an enor- nous scale today were nevertheless protected by their prior operations and by their allies in both May and later options. Another view of the situation according to some observers, is that the grouping of astute spectators in- cluding the redoubtable Gates has cleared the road for a still more gi- gantic corner in wheat for delivery during July. Tonight it was estimat- ed that five million bushels of the May delivery were unloaded here and at
