Wouldn't Vote.

Uncle" Tom Allen did not vote
today and because he did not is due
directly to the lnqulsitiveness OF the
challengers at the polls.
They tried to make me swear all
over the docket" the veteran stated.
II told them that | had been in Pa
ducah 20 years and days and was
householder with children. This
was as much as would swear 10
and when they tried to make me go
back 10 or 90 years ! quit the game
! told them that I did not care
II voted or not. I left the polls
and did not cast my vote"
The election Is proceeding slowly
and this is admitted even by the
most enthusiastic Democrats. Police
Judge Puryear tied his horse In
front OF the city hall this morning
Just before noon and looked lost.
He stated that II was the slowest
election he had ever seen.

II is the estimate by those init

There is little interest taken.

will not get out. think from indl-
cations that few know an election Is
really in progress
Chief Collins opinion is voiced by
Others OF just as much experience.
The election doubtless will prove a
"hzzle" as far as a strong vote is
concerned.
The Democratic primary is on and

morning friends of the candidates
began work. The railroad shops.
Notwithstanding the fact that Il is
but two days after the monthly pay

force. There was some little talk
about the election but no one seemed
TO want to lose any time in voting.
The police Judge race seems to be the
race which is attracting all the at
tention. and the aldermen. council
men and school trustees have been
forced into the back ground.
Besides the saloons, the courts had
out the nothing doing" sign. In

held Three arrests yesterday for
breach OF peace were made and these

GOREMYK|N TO STICK

of Quitting.

That He Wanted to Supplant Him
With Another.
MANY EXPLANATIONS OFFERED

ST. PETERSBURG, June 9.-The report
of the retirement of the Goremykin minis
try was definitely killed late tonight when
the premier returned to st. Petersburg
from Peterhof, where he went this after
noon for an audience with the emperor, and
made the statement that he did not tender
his resignation and no expectation for the
present of retirement from his position
Since the parliaments passing of the
resolution of lack of confidence, when the
emperor declined to avail himself of
Premier Goremykin's offer to resign, ex
pressed accord with the policy outlined in
his address to parliament. his majesty has
given no intimation of a desire for his
resignation and no immediate develop
ments are expected.
The avoidance thus far of an open rup-
ture and the prospective maintenance OF
the status quo for a month to come while
the lower house of parliament is INDUCING
In oratory instead of action on the agra
rian problem apparently inspired the en-
peror determination to retain NJ. Goremy-
kin In office and continue the policy or
drift.
Motives Advanced
Another motive probably was the diff
Guilty of finding a more available man to
replace Goremykin. Another bureaucrat
would be no more acceptable to parliament.
M. Shipof and Prince SviatopolkM irsky,
who are qualified to mediate between the
throne and parliament, declined the post In
advance, the first named because he be-
l1eved the attempt would be frutless and
the latter on account of ill-health, while
emperor Nicholas is not yet ready to take
the plunge with a ministry chosen from
among the members of parliament.
The political wiseacres had such difficulty
IN picking a supposed successor to NJ Co
remykin that finally they fell back upon
Count Witte, who, according to the latest
rumor, is returning in haste from abroad
to assume the reins he surrendered on the
eve of the convocation of parliament
The Bourse Gazette today made the state
ment that the designations of the ministers
were submitted Friday night but this was
as unquahfedly denied by the ministers,
who said their designations were not in the
premier's hands and that they had not re-
ceived any information they desired.
M. Strive, editor of the Duma, and a
number of the other leaders of the consti-
tutional democrats were questioned with
refersnce to the report that M. Kokovsoff
the finance minister, would be called to
head cabinet which would include the
members of the lower house but said the
constitutional democrats refused absolutely
to accept office or to approve of any such
arrangement.

BOOM IN AUTOMOBILES
CARLOADS OF HORSELESS We
HICLEs FOR WASHINGTON.

The advent of warm weather has wit
messed a boom In the sale Of automobiles,
and many Washingtonians who have not
hitherto owned horseless vehicles are in
vesting In cars for both business and pleas
ure. AS result the splendid suburban
roadways, for which this locality Is noted,
are fairly alive these hot days with the
whizzing autos, whose occupants are bound
for a pleasant outing in the picturesque
places about the capital. The Cook & Stod-
dard Company, with salesrooms at JOS
Connecticut avenue. northwest. report that
two carloads of their line of 1905 cars have
just arrived and two more cars are ex-
pected tomorrow.

company have we had such sales. Our
last carload of Franklins lasted just two
days"
Cook & Stoddard Company sell the Cadil-
lac, the White, locomobies, and the draw
bar pull Baker electric; also the Cadillac de-
livery wagon at prices that range from
low figure to a higher one. All their cars
represent the very latest developments and
improvements in horse1ess vehicles.
The garage of this company at 22d and
P streets is the largest in the District OF
Columbia, and Is convenient and modern
in every particular. The Cook & Stoddard
Company was organized in October, 1904.
and it's officers are Mr. J. M. Stoddard,

dent, and Mr.. r. w. Cook. secretary and
treasurer.
The first establishment opened by the
company was at 1925 Connecticut avenue.
where it had but one store room Business
increased at such a rate that in December
of the same year the firm added the prem
Uses at 1928 Connecticut avenue to its es-
Enlistment. In March, 1905, the adjoining
building number 1924, was added. and in
July Of that year another enlargement OF
the rapidly increasing business was made
by the addition of premises 1922 Connecti-
cut avenue, to the complete establishment
which at that time occupied four store
rooms on that avenue. A store house was
also established on L street, and shop
opened In the rear of 1923 Connecticut ave-
nue..
In October 1905, the company secured
the commodious premises P street. in
which the 5000 square feet of space Is
used for garage purposes. The company
finally gave up numbers 1922 and 1924 Con-
necticut avenue and retained numbers 1026
and 1923. The Cook and Stoddard Com
pany is now putting IN special electrical
charging apparatus. The company is quot
ed In the trade journals as having the fin
est and most modern garage equipment
in the world, and the largest business In
the District. Their extensive patronage
speaks volumes for their business integrity
and thrift.

Each remains; there IN no change,

Her voice each flower waits to hear;
The bees her gentle presence seek,
And even again draw
And think more to hear her speak
Alas the deepening shadows fall.
And silent darkness answers all. D.

The sunshine of her loving care.

HANNA MEMORIAL CHAIR.
The Mission of Ohio Association
Fulfilled.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June e.-After two
years of efficient, faithful service, the
Marcus A. Hanna Memorial Chair Associ-
alton will disorganize. It's mission has
been fulfilled, and the 100000 which it
pledged itself to raise for the establish
ment of chair of political science at
Adelbert College Of Western Reserve Uni
versity in memory of the late Senator
Hanna will have been raised by July l.
At this time the funds will be turned over
to the college and invested Judiciously,
the income being used to pay the salaries
OF teachers employed in the instruction of
political science, to which study Senator
Hanna devoted much of his time during
the last few years of his life. The $4,000
which Andrew Carnegie promised pro-
yided the rest could be raised, will be
asked for within the next week.
The establishment of this memorial had
its inception In the mind of the Rev. John
S. Rutledge of this city, who suggested at
meeting held at Lakewood. a suburb of
Cleveland. few days after the death of
Senator Hanna, that no moro fitting me-
mortal than a chair of political science at
Adelbert could be established. A short
time after Judge Frederick A Henry
James w. Stewart, William G. Oswald
William r. Hopkins and Judge Thomas K
Disette met with the Rev. Rutledge and
formed the Marcus A. Hanna Memorial
Chair Association. At this meeting the
following officers were elected: Judge
Henry, president; Rev. Rutledge and
Elmer Dover, vice presidents; w G. Os-
valid, secretary, and Harris CreeCh
treasurer. John Hay, Myron T. Herrick
Charles Dick. Governor Durbin of Indiana
and John Mitchell, coal miner, were chosen
trustees.
No money has been solicited by the as
ISOLATION, the entire amount being raised
by voluntary subscriptions sent In from
all parts of the country from men of the
greatest political and commercial promi-
nence and many from the common people
Among the contributors were many who
antagonistic to the public policies of the
senator, were more than willing to lend
their moral and financial aid to plan to
perpetuate the memory of the man.

To acquire the property without expense

may be involved in its care and nlainte-

the Mclean house was taken down about
1901, with the idea that 1t should be rebuilt
at the worlds Columbian exposition IN
Chicago. The material from the house was
carefully stored upon the ground, and has
been carefully protected against the eie-
ments. Plans and photographs were taken
so that it may be reproduced to conform
In every particular to the original. For
nearly fifteen years the material has been
preserved, but soon the waste of time and
the destroying hand of the relic hunter
will efface what remains of the house that
stood upon this historic spot unless prompt
action is taken to arrest this disaster.
