New York. May The members of the
Wiener Maennergesang Verein, the
famous singing society OF the Austrian
capital. called upon Mayor Mcclellan at
the city hall to-day.
The organization is made up OF so many
men OF nigh social standing in Vienna
that It is known IN Austria as The
Milnonaires Chorus. The members of
the society, who are making a tour of the
world. sang TO President Roosevelt n
Washington on Monday The arrange
ments FOR the call on the mayor were
made by Herman Ridder. under whose
escort they travelled from the Savoy
Hotel to their headquarters, downtown,
IN over twenty automobiles. The party
numbered nearly 200.
In order that they SHOULD not be inter-
fered with by curious crowds in entering
and leaving the city hail, the plaza in
front Of the building was roped of by
the police, and it was well that this pre-
caution was taken, for the line Of people
outside the Gordon of police was in some
places a dozen deep. Alighting from their
automobiles the singers marched TO the

ceived by the mayor.
Mayor Mcclellan Greets singers.
In a short speech dealing with the
travels of the members, Mr.. ellis. of the
German Liederkranz Society. presented
the Verein to the mayor. Mr.. Mcclellan
welcomed the members TO this city, and,
after touching on the reputation OF the
famed organization, added:
You have come to this country IN an
artistic mission-that of serving the
cause of music-but AT the same time, TO
my mind, you are serving an even higher
cause. Whenever dlsagreements occur
among nations they may be traced as
rule TO misunderstanding and TO a lack
of knowledge of conditions in the nations.
In the eyes of this country every one
who comes here from other nations helps
10 bring ABOUT a better understanding
between this country and those nations.
and while you are primarily here in the
service Of music. Yet you are also helping
the cause of your fatherland and of mine
by assisting 10 bring about the better
understanding between the two countries

Sing Praise Greetings 10 Mayor.
Herman Schneiderhan. the president Of
the Vienna Society, speaking in German.
thanked the mayor for his words of well
come; said he agreed with the mayor that
such a visit that the society was making
10 the United States could not be but pro-
ductiye Of good, and he expressed the
hope that relations between this country
ana Austria would continue to grow
closer and stronger.
That ended the speech making. ard the
chorus sang praise greeting 10 the
mayor. Il consisted OF only a few lines.
and was all too short for those who
thronged the chamber and the corridors
10 listen 10 the singers, and in response
to the applause, the praise was rendered
a second time.

Washington, April IL without go
ing to Illinois for speech making
purposes, without writing an open
letter to the Interstate commerce
commission, and withou. calling in
eminent railroad men, President
Roosevelt since last Wednesday
night has Gone much to relieve a
part of the uncertainty which mark
ed the recent financial furry.
This Mr.. Roosevelt has done by
letting 1t quietly be known that he
'is not disposed to press congress for
law TO compel Immediate valua-
tion of all railroad properties. The
impression that he has committed
himself to that plan was erroneous
but It had the effect of frightening
many holders OF railroad stocks
which were well watered at the time
oe their issuance. A sweeping ap-
praiscmcnt by the government of the
railroads which floated these stocks
which would have the effect Of
squeezing them dry of water, 1t
was pointed out to the president that
&. would hurt many Innocent persons
and result l., a very serious condi-
tion.
From all sides the president has
had advice to leave the past alone
in his effort to get some scheme of
regulation of capitalization. THIS
he has decided TO do. The presi-
dent does not consider that an ap-
praisement Of all railroads is neces-
sary to regulate future issues Of
stock in the interest of the stock
holers.

ization as at present framed tenta-

Meantime, without any particular
formality, the Interstate Commerce
Commission, in the annual repp-ts
which 1t is empowered to require
from the railroads, can gain all nec-
essary information as to earnings,
cost Of operation, fixed charges etc. j,
to govern its judgment In passing on
proposed stock issues by any road.
President Roosevelt has a speech
prepared, in which to express his
views on the railroad questions. He
has not yet decided upon the time
and place to deliver It.
There Is little doubt that while the
president is now pursuing policy
of silence as the best course until It
is plainly shown how serious the
present situation is, he will soon be
heard from in some way ais to his
future plans.
While Mr.. Roosevelt has repeated

What Others Say.

Cynics have said, more frequently
OF late years than formerly, that
he churches no longer offer suit
able and adeqr,at careers for men
- strength and ambition and an un-
usual intellectual endow nent. It has
been argued that the law and medi-
cine, engineering and Journalism,
business and railroading-all the
'eading secular occupations, In fact
afforded muoh better openings for
zeal and talent and natural mastery
d men and circumstances than the
religious organizations could give.
An object lesson like the death OF
Npnsignore Thorpe is needed, now
and then, tocOrrect this common
error and remind the world that
great opportunities are still found
and used in the ministry OF Christian
churches, The funeral of the dis
tinguished Roman Catholic priest
who had spent busy and useful
life In Cleveland was evidence
enough OF the wide and deep inter
est felt in his career and in the
man himself. II showed that n
strong and jealous priest can be-
come larger figure in the life of
great and cosmopolitan center of
population, trade and industry than
any captain OF commerce or fin
ance.
How many rich and successful men
In northern Ohio would be missed
and mourned as Monsignore Thorpe
mas been? How many such men
possess as much influence as he ex-
erted In molding the character and
shaping the development of Cleye-
land? How many could make good
a claim to equal power and success
In the higher forms of public sery-
ce?
The churchman was no mere pul-
pit voice. no secluded student of
theology. He touched and influenced
the civic life of Cleveland and Ohio
at many points and in many ways.
He warred upon and checked vice
ana lawlessness. He stimulated
good citizenship and often aided In
awakening sound public sentiment
on matters of much Importance
He was wise counselor, a friend
AErtfme of need, parsonage OF
weight and strength and many
ided usefulness.
Monigncfe Thorpe was a fine
eexxample OF the clerical type. His
career illustrated in striking man.
ner the ridh possibilities of the
churchman's high calling. 1t proved
the fal'acy OF the theory that the
world as In any important sense
outgrown or drifted away from or
ganized religion or ceased to count
