Save the Trees!

To the Editor of The Star:
I have read with a great deal of In
terest the editorials and protests In The
Star of October @ and also In your issue
of the It'll against destroying the many
hundred valuable trees in the Botanical
Gardens.
AS one Of the oldest residents of this
city, having lived here for sixty years,
and as a taxpayer for over fifty years, /
heartily indorse every word you have
said Other sites can be found for the
Grant statue. but this wanton vandalism
and destruction of the trees is something
which should not be for one moment
countenanced, for some of them can never
be replaced and II others were planted
in their stead it would take generation
to have them grow to be like those that
are proposed to be destroyed. I certainly
desire to enter my word Of protest, and
q very strong word, too. and trust that
the matter can be suspended until Con-
gress meets, and then that a law can be
formed by our legislators in the Capitol
which will protect the trees in our beau
tful city from wanton destruction.

Davis, or this city. defines his position

assertion that De wants the Illinois delc.
CATION to the national convention ..for
trading purposes 20 be "f4r-fetched and
absolutely untrue"
The letter from Mr.. Cannon was called
forth by newspaper article hv Mr.
Davis reciting the circumstances of Lin
coins nomination for President IN 1861
the efforts OF William II. Seward. Of New

Illinois; Lincoln's fear OF a divided dele

Of a solid Lincoln delegation The letter
in part follows:
My interest in the premises is the in
terest Of a citizen and Republican. I
have no personal desire to be the Repub-
lican candidate for the Presidency in 1903.
and if I am in the race at all it is be-
cause Of the action Of friends in Illinois
and elsewhere in the country
Certain newspapers claim that my de-
sire is Tor delegation that can be used

her tussle with the biggest November
seas that ever have vexed a liner. am
bilious 10 DO a startling stunt. The
Cunarder Mauretania finished al u:i3
o'clock this uerning in a dense FOG of
Sandy Hook Ightship. her maiden trip
from Daunts Rock. outside Queenstown.
Her time was FIVE days. nve hours. and
ten minutes, and her average hourly
speed was =Z knots
she broke only one record. that for
the best days run. covering on the
nautical day. ending az noon on Thurs
day. 6e4 miles. thus aclipsing by $ knots
The best single days run OF her sister.

as carrier OF gold. bringing S12.s5S. rs
chiefly in the form OF American eagles
and double eagles Tt was brought down
TO the steamship 81 Liverpool in six
specially guarded cars a part Of the
consignment IS in gold bars from South
Africa
No liner ever had worse luck on a first
trip. The tempests began buffeting her
when she was half a day out from
Queenstown On Monday she pitched and
rolled enough to make many Of her 5S
first and second cabin passengers dread
TO report for dinner.
Only One Record Smashed.
As the hours went on. and the en-
thusiasts on the ship began 10 suspect
that she would not break any records al
an, feeling OF gloom took the place OF
the hope that had been high on the first
day of the trip. II was not until the
splendid performance OF Thursday was
posted that CheerfUlucss came back 10
the cabin sports again.
Il was impossible to keep up steam suf-
fcient TO send the big ship through the
smashing seas. On her trial trips her
propeIlers averaged about $50 revolutions.
On this trip the average was below 100
Her big days run demonstrated that she
has the power to 60 and can go when the
obsUucting seas are not too violent
She lay or the lightship in a thick fog
until late in the afternoon. Then she was
brought up through Ambrose Channel.
not reaching her dock until after dark.
AAS ot~e-liiSi IV'leI al -delSS went aground
during the fog on the Hook in the morn

Among the Mauretania's passengers
were William J. White, Of this city. who
was 50 pleased with the work of the en-
gine force that he gave Pritchard $50 TO
give 70 the stokers as Christmas presents
on their return to Liverpool.
