CHRISTMAS TIMES AT
THE WHITE HOUSE
THOUSANDS OF GIFTS ARE POUR
ING IN TO THE PRESIDENT AND
HIS FAMILY.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, Dec. 22.-During the
past few days there has been an al
most continuous stream of expressmen
and delivery boys calling at the White
House. Every year at this season
thousands of gifts from total strangers
reach the executive mansion. The re-
ceiDt Of these gifts cause no end OF
embarrassment to the president, and
he doubtless would be sincerely graft
fed if appreciative citizens chose some
less substantial method of, remember
ing him at Christmas time. When of
considerable value, the gifts are al.
ways returned to the donors. other
wise they are accepted politely, with
note of acknowledgment. There is
always a large collection of choice
edibles received at Christmas time,
more than would be sufficient for the
needs of the White House occupants
for many weeks. These are always
turned over by the president to those
attaches Of the executive mansion who
have families. In the same way the
countless toys and trihes that are sent
to the Roosevelt children are distrib-
uted among the children's hospitals
and orphans homes in Washington.
The Roosevelts inherit from their
Dutch ancestors a generation for the
spirit and sentiment of Christmas, and
the day is always given up entirely to
festivities. Quentin and Archie, the
two younger children, still hang up
their stockings TO be filled by Santa
Claus. For the other members of the
family the gifts are usually laid out
on the tables in the library, where
they are distributed by the president
himself after breakfast Though the |
presidents eldest daughter now has a |
home OF her own. she and Mr.. Long |
worth will spend Christmas day at the |
White House and join in the general |
festivities. The Christmas dinner will |
be served at 1880 p. m. Beside the |
members of the family there will be a

ENToMBED MINER SAYS HURRY"
But Reseuers May Not Reach Hicks
Within Twenty-four Hours.

Bakersfield, Cal, Dec. Polls nerve
broken at last by twelve days impris-
oRment IN q tunnel formed BY -a-eaEe
in, with five dead men for companions,
Miner Hicks wept last night and beg
ged piteously to be released. The res
cuers, who can hear but can not see
the imprisoned man, expected to
reach him yesterday evening, but the
nature of the ground through which
they are tunneling made rapid progress
dangerous and they were forced to
work leisurely, within sound of the
miners sobs.
The force at the Edison works still
have seven feet to go before Hicks can
be released. The party is now working
on loose dirt and decomposed granite.
Despite their nearness to Hicks the
chances for his delivery seem as far
removed as they were two days ago
The engineers offer no hope of rescue
within twelve hours and perhaps TWEEN
ty-four.
The substance in which the rescuers
are now at work is debris from the
fallen tunnel and it yields to the touch
as easily as sand. Progress is further
delayed by the fear that at the last
minute false jar will release the rock
that threatens Hicks and cheat the
rescuers from the victory for which
they have so long labored.
Two immense rocks are directly
above Hicks. One boulder must be
taken out and the other split. The
miners are now digging just above
him, but they will cross the tunnel
over his head and attempt to reach
him from behind.
Chief Engineer F. c. FinEle report.
ed that a barrier of mixed granite and
earth, seven feet thick, lies between
the rescuers and the tram car, which
is the objective point
If this car is reached in safety"
said Finkle, Hicks will be taken from
his tomb alive"
The stencil from the five dead bodies
just beyond where the men are work
ing has driven more than one stalwart
miner from the relief workers. The
courage of the entombed miner did
not give way until last night. when he
begged piteuusly to be released.
He said he was nearly frozen.

NEW YORK BANKS.

NEW YORK. October 20.-The Financier
says this week:
The official statement of the New York
Associated Banks last week showed
smaller loss Of cash than was estimated
upon the basis of the traceable movements
of money. The exhibit was. however, not
altogether unfavorable. considering the
monetary conditions that prevailed during
the week incident to the unlooked-hbr
drain Of gold to Canada; such conditions
may reasonably be expected to improve
this week as the result OF the satisfaction
of the Canadian demand. The cash loss re-
ported by the statement was So 1874, 800; 1t
was due, as above noted, to shipments OF
81 millions to Canada and to an important
movement to the interior; the total of such
receipts Of gold from Europe and from our

morning to level that promised to renew
the engagements of gold. That a renewal
of the gold movement was counted upon to
relieve the local money market was sug-
gested by the sharp response of the stock
market. and the money market to the &C
ton taken by the Bank of England to de-
feat this inroad upon London money re-
sources. 1t had been assumed that the re-
Punishment already effected of New York
reserves by the import of gold and by the
deposit of government funds was too am
pie to carry the market through the needs
of the autumn and protect the stock mar
ket from disturbance. 1t is evident that
the assumption was shaken by the week s
events in the money market and renewed
resort of foreign gold supplies was hoped
for. The action of the Bank of England
has disappointed that hope and the Interior
consequences not yet clear.

CHICAGO, October 2O.-Lower prices for
wheat at Liverpool were chiefly responsible
for weakness today in the local wheat
market. At the close wheat for December
delivery was off ".
Corn was down y.
Oats showed loss of haA.
Provisions were shade to 2H lower.
The wheat market was weak all day.
Trading was very quiet and prices held
within a narrow range. The news of the
day was almost exclusively in favor of the
bears and with no special demand the market
showed no rallying power. Prices were at
fected by a decline of I'D at Liverpool, ia
vorable weather in the United States, in
creased shipments from India and Aus
tralia and predictions of a liberal increase
in worlds shipments. Local longs were
the chief sellers, and demand came mainly
from shorts. The market closed weak
with prices near the lowest point of the
day. December opened 1saA to Aa3s lower,
at 73A to 1895 sold off to 10 and closed at
73a73h.
to 521 800 bushels Primary receipts were
,0S6.OO0 bushels, against 1,144.OOO bushels
in the same day last year. Minneapolis,
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
I94 cars, against 563 cars last week and S04
cars one year ago.
Trading in corn was dull, and prices were
lower. in sympathy with the weakness of
wheat. An official forecast of colder
weather IN parts or the corn belt increased
the bearish sentiment. The drop in tenn
perature would, it was claimed. facilitate
the curing of the new crop. and would also
put country roads into better shape for the
movement of the grain. Cash houses were
the principal sellers, offerings being taken
by commission houses. The market closed
weak with prices near the lower point of
the day. December opened a shade to II
lower. at 42A to 42a42&. and sold off to AZ.
where it closed Local receipts were $50
cars with 173 of contract grade.
The oats market was influenced almost
entirely by the action of wheat and corn,
sentiment in the pit being bearish all day.
There was considerable selling by longs
and pit leaders. December opened haA
lower. at 1915, sold between 33 and 33A
and closed at 33b . Local receipts were
260 cars.
Provisions were quiet and easy. There
was scattered liquidation by the buyers of
yesterday. the offerings being taken by pit
traders who were evening up trades. A
weak market for live hogs was largely in
fuential in holding down prices. At the
close January pork was off 21a at ID. 72H.
Lard was a shade lower. at S.2OaS. 221a
Ribs were 21a lower at 7.45.
Estimated receipts for Monday are:
Wheat, 10 cars; corn. 292 cars; oats, 35S
cars; hogs, $4,000 head.

LONDON MONEY MARKET.

LONDON. October 2O.-Money was In
good demand and dearer in the market
today. Discounts were frmer. Trading on
the stock exchange had somewhat
steadier tone. so far as British securities
were concerned owing to the idea that the
Bank of England's 9 per cent discount rate
showed no further loss, but foreigners were
weak on continental sales.
Americans were active. They opened be-
low parity and further declined during the
session under offerings at parity for Ameri-
can account and fears of a poor New York
bank statement. The market closed weak
at the lowest quotations of the day.
