TAFT HAS STRANGLE HOLD.
Senator Curtis Says Kansans are for
Big Fellow.

Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas thinks
three-fourths of the republican voters of his
state are for Secretary Taft for President in
1908. He said SO TO several newspaper men
soon after his arrival in town yesterday Of
course President Roosevelt has the first
call, Senator Curtis says, but Mr.. oose-
welt as third-term possibility does not en-
ter into cyclone cellar gossip.
Senator Curtis remarked that of course
Fairbanks has a following, and Mr.. Cannon
too, but not nearly SO pronounced, he be-
lieves, as the Tart movement. AS for
Hughes, Senator Curtis thinks he is not
sufficiently well known in that part of the
country, and, of course. he is not qualified
to speak for any other section.

tariff in cases where the schedules may be
changed without affecting conditions. We
are protectionists and believe the tariff
should be handled In protective way.
People In Kansas believe in the admin

there should be any objection to the plan

HERR BALLIN ANGRY.
German Steamship Magnate Makes a
Little Speech.

HAMBURG, September 1O.-Herr allin,
president of the Hamburg American st am
ship Company, in a speech to German
bankers who were entertained last night
on board the steamer Deutschland declared
that England had in the Atlantic fight
dropped her principle of the free play of
the forces TO which she owed her bril- liant
economic development and had richly en-
dowed a single company so that it should
only by little excel the German liners.
Everywhere, even in economically poor
countries, he said, an effort was being made
to produce artificially a shipping business
at the cost of the taxpayers 1t had been
forgotten that such hothouse plants could
not flourish in the keen air of free world
competition Herr Ballin expressed the
hope that finally, as in the case of sugar
bountieS, such an unSound policy would
be stopped by an international agreement
Herr Ballins speech was taken as in
dicating an expectation that tine new tur-
blner Lusitania will win a record.

ROD is PICKLING FOR LOEB
PRESIDENT ANGRY ABOUT DIS
COURTESY TO PALMA TEAM.
Private Secretary Went Of Riding
and Left Visitors to Shift for
Themselves.

Special Dispatch to The Star
OYSTER BAY, N. Y. September 1O.-An
investigation will be made today by Presi-
dent Roosevelt into the circumstances sur
rounding the visit here yesterday of the
American riflemen, who, although invited
to Sycamore Hill to meet him, almost
missed doing SO on account of somebody's
blundering.
Gen. James A. Drain, president of the
Rife Association, had been informed by
Secretary Loeb that automobiles would
meet the visitors at the station. and convey
them to the Presidents house. There were
no automobiles to meet them, and after
hours of delay, which completely upset the
Presidents working schedule, the seventeen
sharpshooters had to hire village hacks at
exorbtant prices, and drive to Sycamore
Hill themselves
The only explanation of the unfortunate
occurrence was that it was Loeb's fault.
The secretary had completely forgotten the
visitors and had taken one of the big auto
mobiles to go for ride himself. When he
finally remembered that the rifiemen were
coming, he sent the machine to the depot,
but it did not get there until after the
party had left. Returning from the Presi-
dents house the rifiemen missed their train
and had to wait at the depot for an hour
and half for another.
While they spoke in high terms of the
Presidents greetings, what they said
about Mr.. Loeb must have made mis- ears
tingle. Loeb did 1t, was the opinion of
all.
When the secretary reached his office
this morning he was not in an amiable
frame of mind. He had read the morn
ing papers and his ire was up.
Word had come from Sycamore Hill
that the President himself was wroth
and had demanded an explanation. I'm
der the circumstances, it is said, he par
ticularly regretted the incident, as it
was a reflection upon his hospitality, to
say nothing about the upsetting of his
plan. He had invited the rinemen to
visit him, and had arranged that they be
met and driven to Sagamore Hill in the
same manner as his other visitors have
been treated this summer.
There was nothing discourteous
meant" said Mr.. Loeb when asked about
it. The fact is that so many of the
rifemen were not expected. Had there
been only three or four they would have
been accommodated"
But Mr.. Drain showed a telegram in
which you stated that the visitors would
be met" some one suggested.
Nothing of the kind" said the secre-
tary.
When the announcement of the rifle
mems visit was first made Mr.. Loeb de-
clared then that fully seventeen of these
cl1lr rnCh ntnI *l,x
when they all showed up no one but
Secretary Loeb apparently was surprised.

Race Wednesday.
PLANS OF GERMAN BUILDERS
If Necessary They Will Construct a

PLANS OF GERMAN BUILDERS

NEW YORK, September 1O.-Oficials of
the Cunard line said today that they had re-
ceived no advices from the new steamship
Lusitania since she was reported by wire
less late Sunday emerging from a fog bank
many miles to the westward of Queenstown,
with her great engines driving her along at
twenty-five knots. That the Lusitania will
create new speed record in her maiden
trip to America is confidently believed by
officials Of the Cunard line, who expect to
get word from her when she enters the
wireless zone of Capt Race Wednesday
The Lusitania was handicapped by fogs
during the first part Of her trip, but dis
patches received by the company show that
the steamships machinery was running
smoothly and any time lost by slowing down
in the fog will doubtless be made up later.
The westbound record from Daunts Rocks
to Sandy Hook ightship, which the Lusi-
tainia is striving to beat, is five days, seven
hours and twenty-three minutes, made by
the Lucania Of the Cunard line in 1904. The
Lucania left Queenstown last Sunday thirty
minutes ahead of her new sister, but within
six hours after the Lusitania had left
Queenstown she had passed the Lucania
and taken the lead in the race across the
Atlantic
