Mr.. Roosevelt,
Wall Street.
(By Alexander

G3y Alexander l. !, in the Janu-
ary-Mare3i i+orum.)
Mr. Roosevelt was considered to have
placed himself distinctly as the say
Ing went, under the ban of Wall street.
SO frankly was this situation recognize
ed that at the time it contributed much
to his personal popularity in the west,
where Wall street is not in favor. The
reason for this Wall street attitude was
no mystery. The presidents action
during 1902, when he instituted suit a.
gninst the Northern Securities combine
alton, was generally described as a step
for which the great financial interests
never would forgive him. In case of
such larger financiers as publicly ex-
pressed hostility to the president, there
is no doubt that the upsetting of a
scheme of theirs, by which an awkward
financial dilemma was to be escaped,
sharpened the feeling Of antagonism.
Even among investors of less import
ance there was a curiously widespread
theory that the Northern Securities
litigation had destroyed the upward
movement in the markets and had par
aIyzed public confidence. This, may
say In passing, was mere nonsense. III
Judgment must be passed on the ac-
tual bearing of the Northern Securi-
ties suit upon the investment situa-
ton, it will freely be conceded by IN
telli-ent and unbiased critics that Its
effect was altogether wholesome. lt
checked a movement which, by the
common judgment not only OF expert
enced critics, but OF every judicial body
that has reviewed the Northern Secur-
tiles litigation, contained elements Oh
serious danger. But this does not ex-
plain the complete reversal IN wan
streets attitude toward Mr.. Roosevelt
before election day.
The explanation seems to be That n
ritation over the breakdown OF the
market has spent its force with the
recovery in prices, an dthat when Mr..
Roosevelt became the candidate OF ms
party. political preferences and pra1n-
dices resumed their sway and the IL
nancial community in general returned
to it's attitude OF 1896 and 1900. 1t is
also quite possible that when Mr..
roosevelt became the inevitable candi-
date of his party, Wall street s'lrre.-
dered itself to the spell of the personpl
popularity which swept the country az
a whole before 1t. There is no loud.
that this was the actual result. But IL
does not guarantee that tickle wal:

yancing in 1885 and 1892. and cursed

GRAVES ARE UNDlsTuRBED.
Porter Finds Thorn in Cemetery Where
Jones is Buried.

Washington, Feb. 16.-Ambassador
Porter already has justified the faith
he expressed to the state department in
his ability to find some trace of the
remains Of John Paul Jones. He has
cabled the state department as follows:
Sunk shaft, found rows of graves
undisturbed at depth of seventeen
feet"
This refers to the preliminary exam
ination which the ambassador has been
making of the ground which once
formed the site of the cemetery to
which the remains Of John Jaul Jones
were traced.
Mr.. Porter, who himself was civil
engineer, has projected a plan for
searching the cemetery site for the re-
mains of John Paul Jones by means
of a system of shafts and lateral drifts
and tunnels whereby the inquiry can
be prosecuted without involving the
heavy expense of purchasing and de-
molshing the houses now on the site
of the cemetery.

FOSTER DISAPPOINTED.
Statement on Action of Senate in
Amending Arbitration Treaties.

Statement on Action of Senate in
Amending Arbitration Treaties.
Washington, Feb. Id. Hon. John
w. Foster, the president of the nations
al arbitration conference, which has
been conducting an active propaganda
in behalf of arbitration in internation
al disputes, last night made state
ment bearing on the action of the
senate iii amending the arbitration
treaties between the United States
and eight European governments.
MI. Foster said he was greatly dis
appointed with the resulted so far at
tanned in the effort to commit the Uni
ted States to the principle OF arbitra-
ton He had labored to secure the
approval of the treaties before the sem
ate without amendment, because he
considered the word agreement" in
article of the conventions as having
the same significance in international
law as the word treaty" But when
this matter was brought into doubt he
regarded the senate as justified in
making this clear, as he never con-
templated the president would have
the power under the treaties to make
an agreement to submit a case TO The
Hague court without the advice of tn"
Coordinate branch of the treaty MAX
ing power. The matter is now
in the hands of the president, and
Mr.. Foster said he had great conf
dence that the statesman who had
shown himself the most ardent friend
OF arbitration and thus rendered the
cause of arbitration the greatest ser
vice of any man of his generation,
would find a way to reconcile the eX-
listing differences and save the Uni
ted States from becoming the most
backward of the nations in the cause
of international peace.
Mr.. Foster said he was authorized to
give out the following telegram from
Andrew Carnegie
You can truly say that I am forced
to see that the senate only did its
duty. could not have done otherwise
than vote with the majority, tho with
such reluctance as Senators Lodge,
Spooner, Cullom and others expressed.
The absentees from voting are as sig
nificant as the overwhelming vote. /
know the president and secretary of
state are Just as clear in their convic-
tons as the senate is The senate
might adopt a rule to give specific
treaties submitted instant considera-
ton. and then foreign powers would
not have to wait"

LIVES ON A HOUSE BOAT.
Heir of Noted California Millionaire
Has Free and Easy Existence.

Portland. Ore. Feb l4-One of the
coolest little homes in Portland is a
houseboat occupied by r.. Sutro a son
OF the late Adolph Sutro. one time
mayor of san Francisco. 1t is moored
on the west side of the Willamette
river ut a point almost directly oppo
site the town of Sellwood.
Few cottages on shore are more ele-
gantiy furnished than this home on the
water Each of its five rooms is pro-
vided with household conveniences of
the latest make. Rara works of art
adorn the walls. A piano and library
are in the living rooms, and the occu-
pants pass away the hours with music
and their favorite authors.
Mr.. Sutro is not "batching:" the
houseboat is in command" of a
housekeeper. Only one glance at the
interior will suffice to show that Il
feminine hand is at the helm"
One thing in particular is attractive
about this little floating palace-the
the walls and ceilings are lined with
newspaper matrices. A person would
not know what material was used
without giving 1t critical inspection
for the paper has been so heavily
closely resemble the Dashboard looking
stuff that is picked up around a press
room The matrices We're laid by the
hand of a mechanic and it is a difficult
matter to detect the point at which the
pieces are joined together. Three col
ors have been used, dark red, pale blue
and pea green.
Back on the hill but a few yards
distance is a spring of water Plans
are now being made to have it piped to
the house, and in a couple of weeks the
labor saving water works system will
be in operation.
"Why am I living in a houseboat at
Portland?" repeated Mr.. Sutro in re-
Spouse to question. ut is because I
like the free, easy, open air life. What
could be more charming than our sur
roundings here? | enjoy the scenery
the trees and the hills and the water
SO near. 1 have been here since last
July and every morning during the
summer months take Il plunge in the
river before breakfast. / have always
lived in a big city, but do you know
that fellow feels twice as we'll out
on a place of this description?

PokEs FUN AT AMERICA.
Russian Paper Makes Sarcastic Com
ment on Senate's Treaty Action.

st. Petersburg. Feb. 16.-The Novoe
Vremya in a sarcastic editorial on the
action of the United States in con-
nection with the arbitration treaties
pokes fun at the alleged attempt of the
United States to take the leadership in
the worlds diplomacy. The editorial
reviews the plan for preserving the
administrative entity of China, the
proposed naval demonstration in Tur-
kish waters, the establishment Of the
republic of Panama and the proposition
to hold a second peace conference at
The Hague concluding with the corn
ucopia or arbitration treaties,' the
whole idea of which, the paper says.
Finally met the fate which always
overtakes new fad Thereupon it is
not to be wondered at that the senate
declines to yield to a scheme which
placed the settlement of future dis
putes entirely in the hands of Presi-
deint Roosevelt"
