America still distinguishes be-

be gathered from the warrant charg-

the distinction, which has existed
since Edward rs time, was abolished
in 1927, and again-to make sure, pre-
sunably-in the larceny act of 1851.

Brewster, confident that the stock

ROOSEVELT ON \ TEAR.
The President Sends an Exciting Mes
sage to Congress.

Washington, April 1S.-In a spe-
cial message, delivered to the Con-
srwess today, President Roosevelt de-
clares that the recent trial Of the
beef packers in Chicago was a
miscarriage Of Justice and that the
Interpretation placed by Judge Hum
phrey on the Will Of Congress is such
as to make that will absolutely abor-
tive
The message, which is sensational
in character, is based largely on a let
ter to the President from Attorney
General Moody, in which the Attorney
General reviews the proceedings Of the
case Of the government against the
beef packers. The president says it
is clear that no criticism attaches to
Commissioner Garfield, as what he
did was in pursuance of a duty i'm
posed on him by Congress. He refers
sharply. however, to the decision Of
Judge Humphrey, saying that Con-
gress could not have foreseen such e
decision, and that he can hardly be-
lieve that the ruling of Judge Hum
phrey will be followed by other judges
He declares that such Interpretation
of the law as that placed on it by
Judge Humphrey comes measure
bly, near making the law a farce" and
he recommends that Congress pass a
declaratory Act, stating its real inten-
ton. The president also requests to
confer upon the government by stat
ute the same right of appeal, in GRIM
inal cases, which the defendant now
enjoys, where the merits Of the case
have not been determined.

\ sions Brewster used regarding one
/ S. Jones after reading this tele-
4 gram. But he felt considerably
relieved after he had uttered them. He
fell to reading accounts of the big
prize fight which was to take place In
San Francisco that evening. He revel-
ed in the descriptions Of upper cuts"
and cleft hooks" and learned inclden-
tally that the affair was to be quite
one sided. A local amateur was to
box a champion. Quick to see an op-
portunity and cajoling himself into the
belef that Swearengen Jones could
not object TO such display Of sports
manship. Brewster made Harrison
book several good wagers on the result.
He intimated that he had reason to be-
lieye that the favorite would lose.
Harrison soon placed $1,000 on his
man. The young anancier felt so sure
of the result that he entered the bets
on the profit side Of his ledger the mo-
ment he received Harrison's report.
This done, he telephoned to Miss
Drew. She was not insens1ble to the
significance Of his inquiry if she would
be in that afternoon. She had observ-
ed in him Of late q condition Of un-
easiness, supplemented by moroseness
and occasional periods Of irasciblllty.

Montgomery Brewster to have made
her anxiousiy uncertain of his state Of
mind. She cared, indeed, much more
than she intended to confess at the
outset.
It was nearly half past 5 when he
came, and for once the philosophical
Miss. Drew felt a little irritation. So
certain was she Of his object in coDa-
ing that his tardiness was trife> ruff

that possessed her. 1t was naturally
impossible for him to share all his

did not tell her that Grant & Ripley

found this telegram from Mr.. Jones:

Colonel Drew's dignity relaxed amaz-
insly when he caught sight Of the
Young man. He came forward to meet
him. and his greeting almost carried
Monty off his feet.

the colonel. She's off point or two
