ROOSEVELT WAS WRONG.
Opinion of Bishop Burgess on Coin
Motto.

NEW YORK, November 16-The Right
Rev Frederick Burgess. Episcopal Bishop
of Long Island, in an inte rview declared
that President Roosevelt did wrong in
eliminating the motto I'm God We Trust"
from the new ten-dollar gold pieces. but
defended him by saying that he was ac-
tuated by the highest motives of rever-
ence.
The Importance of the proposed re-
moval has been greatly exaggerated" he
said. president Roosevelt was actuated
by the highest motives Of reverence, and
yet he was mistaken in supposing that
any harm was caused to the religious of
the country by the jesting on the subject
Everything sacred, from marriage down
ward, is made a subject for humor by the
American people and papers, but 1t ought
not. in my opinion, to influence our chief
magistrate to take from our coins the
name of God, at this time especially, when
our people need to remember God more
than ever in their financial transactions.
1t is pity that question has been
raised. but now that II has been l hope
the inscription which was inspired by a
faithful people al critical time In their
history Will not now be erased when the
republic needs all its religion to face its

MAY PICK CLEVELAND
SUGGESTION MADE BY ANTI
BRYAN DEMOCRATS.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, November 16.-Grover Cleve-
land, as the democratic candidate for
President, was suggested in political cir
cles in Chicago today 1t was urged
that a ticket headed by Mr.. Cleveland,
with Gov. Johnson of Minnesota for Vice
President, could be elected. 1t should
bs- stated. however, the politicians max
ing the suggestion are strongly opposed
to the noHff ition of William J. Bryan
and the Cleveland suggestion is I'm the
way of Bryan antidote.
1t came up in connection with the
week end political gathering which
Chairman Tom Taggart of the democratic
national committee is to- hold at French
Lick Springs, Ind, next Friday. He has
invited not only the other members of
the committee, but several democratic
politicians or statesmen, as they may
prefer to be called.
1t is taken for granted among the
democrats here that the purpose of the
gathering is to see whether or not there
is any good way of heading off the Bryan
boom. While all the members of the
committee have been asked TO attend,
the word brought to Chicago is that
none of the other politicians invited is of
the Bryan persuasion, and the inference
is that they are to use their persuasive
powers on whatever Bryan adherents
there may be among the committee men,
bers to convince them of their error and
their ways.
Might Not Accept.
Ex-Mayor John p Hopkins advocates
the nomination of Mr.. Cleveland as the
only way for the democrats to get out
of the wilderness. His argument is that
Bryan cannot be elected while Cleveland
could, and 1t would be folly to name
ticket that surely would be defeated at
the polls Mr. Hopkins is what is known
as IAN opportunist" in politics, and does
not believe in wasting his ammunition.
How much reason there is 10 believe
that Mr.. Cleveland would consent to
stand as candidate toy nomination
there is nobody in Chicago in position
to say. Mr. Hopkins does not say he is
speaking with any authority. But he is
in close touch with Mr.. Cleveland's near
est friends, both east and west. and the
suggestion is expected to be brought up
at the French Lick gathering.

pleasant" added the Ohio senator.
Senator Foraker said that he and
the President had talked about the finan-
cial and business outlook. the President
bringing up the recommendations he VIII
make on the matter of an emergency cur
rency.
Gen. Corbin is talked of as the republi-
can nominee for Congress from the sixth
Ohio district, now represented by a demo-
crat. When asked about his political am
bitions, he said that he was not making
any efforts to get the nomination, but If
it came to him he would accept and make
the race.
Senator McCumber of North Dakota
said today that the President will recon-
mend federal control of the inspection of
wheat and other grain. He will advise
that the inspection be put under the De
partment of Agriculture. Grain is now
inspected under various state and local
laws and there is much complaint from
farmers.
Kentucky to Remain Republican.
Representative Langley OF the tenth
Kentucky district talked to the Presi-
dent today about politics in that state
Mr.. Langley told the President that while
local issues had much to do with the
recent election result, he was confident
that Kentucky would hereafter remain
in the republican column. The Presi-
dent asked Mr.. Langley's views about the
vacant collectorshtp of internal revenue
in the sixth Kentucky district, and ex
pressed the hope that the republicans of
the state would not get into factonal
wrangles over federal patronage, particu-
larlY so soon after such signal vic
tory.
Some Colored Visitors.
James A. Cobb, the recently appointed
assistant United States attorney of the
District, was presented to the President
today by a delegation of prominent col
ored men. consisting of W. ID. Crum,
collector of customs at Charleston: J. G.
Napier, a prominent attorney of Nash
vile; r. II. Terrell, w. Mckinley and
Clarence White of the District. The Wis
tors wished to thank the President for
his appointment of Cobb. The President
talked for some time with his visitors.
and told some of his friends that he was
striving to secure men of the stamp of
Cobb for federal positions. He desired to
encourage the best class of colored men.
and would do so In every way in his
power.

YALE-PRINcEToN FOOT BALL.
Today's Game Promises to Be the
Greatest Of the Year.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, November 49,
Judging by the number of seekers after
tickets for the contest on Yale field this
afternoon, when Yale and Princeton meet
in what promises to be the greatest foot
ball game of the year. the attendance will
be the largest ever brought together here.
The total seating capacity of the stands
is about $4,000. and several hundred spec
tators will be accommodated along the
side lines Of the gridiron. The city
ordinance against barterng tickets seemed
to be effective, as few sidewalk merchants
were to be seen.
The morning gossip about the game indi-
Gated that Yale men were confident of
winning by such a score as IS to 0, and
the timid ones would only concede a field
goal by Harlan to the Tigers. Betting
was not heavy nor much in evidence in
spite of Yale offers of to 1 on small
bets and 10 to on large sums
Betting on the game became brisk at
noon and Yaie offered good odds, at all
times finding plenty of Princeton money.
The weather was perfect, clear, no wind
and mild.

MAURITANIA COMING.
Another Giant Cunarder Sails This
Evening.

NEW YORK, November 16.-Advices
from England as to the departure of
the huge new Cunard steamer Mauretania
from Liverpool this evening on her maiden
transatlantic passage, say that the event
will be attended with an interest fully
as keen as that which marked the Lusi-
tania's first departure for America.
The Mauretania's recent trials establish
the conviction that she will surpass the
Lusitania's achievements, Notwithstanding
the official announcement that she will
not be pushed. The rival shipbuilding
interests on the Tyne and on the Clyde
are intensely interested on this point OF
speed. for the English builders hope to
see the product of the Scotch yards out
sped by a Tyne-side vessel.
The Mauretania will carry about 1900
passengers-a record number for a west
ward passage in mid-November-but even
then all her births will not be filed.
The amount of gold she will bring here
adds more interest to the voyage. The
amount is yet uncertain: but 1t prob
ably will be about s3,Oo0,0O0, mainly in
gold bars.
The Cunard company has insured the
Mauretania for nearly s5,WO,0OO.

by the writings of Emerson and adopted
the Unitarian faith. With this idea ne
entered the Harvard divinity school, and

about his dismissal from that church and
after a similar experience in Cincinnati

and lecturer. For time he edited the
Boston Commonwealth, where he became
dominant figure in the fight against
slavery In 1863 he went to England,

GOEBEL MURDER CASE
WORK OF SELECTING JURY IS
PROGRESSING.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
LEXINGTON. KY, November 16.-The
examination of special W .iremen sum-
moned from Harrison county from which
to select a jury to try Caleb Powers con-
tinues in Scott circuit court at George
town today.
Although sfxtythree out of the first
venire Of 100 men had been summoned
when court opened today, only five men
were in the jury box and these are yet
subject to challenge By both Sides Sixty
two Of the men examined were either
democrats or independents. while only
one was a republican. He was accepted
without questioning by the defense. while
the prosecution examined him closely.
The men in the box this morning were

twenty-seven, farmer, democrat; ]. P.
Hodson. forty-eight, farmer. republican;
]. w. Renake-, fifty-five. farmer demo-
crat; II. Florence forty-seven. farmer.
A stir was caused when several pro-
spective jurors testified that they had
been supplied only short time ago
with the published book of Caleb Powers,
containing his speeches and account of
MS trldl. Inc Information gave rise TO
the suspicion that Harrison county had
been flooded with the Powers publication
by some one desiring to influence the trial
1t was finally lea ned. however. that these
books had been sent out as campaign
literature by the republican state cam
paign committee several weeks before the
recent election.
Two Notable Incidents.
Although in the four trials of Powers
nearly 1,500 men have been examined
as prospective jurors, only one, Joseph
Shad, On being examined declared that
although living in n newspaper-read aiding
community, he had never heard of Caleb
Powers. his trials o. the charges against
him. and this in a case more noted. per
haps, than any other case in America
So much for fame.

w. l.. Whitaker, one of the Jurors Sc
lected yesterday. announced today that
after thinking the matter over he had
decided that his strong political prejudice
would prevent him giving Powers a fair
trial. He was dismissed. r. ]. Mul-
cahy was the only juror qualified at
the morning session. Many ladies were
in the courtroom and showed interest In

GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
Railways and Mines the Bone Of
Contention.
FIGHT LED BY A SOCIALIST
Milwaukee Delegates Reference to
Power of Ballot-Gompers' Salary
Raised to $1,000.

NORFOLK, Va, November 16. - The
American Federation of Labor, by vote
of 154 to 50. today refused to place itself
on record as favoring the government
ownership of railways and mines, the
question having come up on resolution
offered by Herbert Champion Of the
Amalgamated Carpenters to amend the
economic platform adopted at Minnea polls
last year SO as to include railways and
mines in the favorable action taken at
that time on the NATURALIZATION of tele-
graph and telephone properties.
The opponents took the ground that gov
ernment ownership of mines and railways
would prevent all strikes, no matter how
peaceably they might be conducted. and
that with a federal government opposed
to labor it might prove a death blow.
Victor L. Berger of Milwaukee, the social
istic leader. led the fight for the indorse-
ment of government ownership.
Delegate Feeley of Milwaukee declared
that the way to make the government
favorable to labor was by ballot, and that
If this was properly used, men lin power,
some of whose wives now give dog and
monkey dinners at Newport" would be
succeeded by others who might conduct
affairs equally as well.
Officers Salaries Raised.
Another important action by the con-
vention was the increasing Of the salary
of President Samuel Gompers from $1,000
to 5000 per annum; that of Secretary
Morrison from $3.50 to $4,000, and of
Treasurer Lennon from $500 to $500.
Mr.. Berger was the only one to oppose
the 5000 salary for President GOmpers,
declaring that 81 900 was enough, and that
such a great increase might injure the
cause of labor.
The federation with but few dissenting
votes placed itself on record as favoring
a system of government postal savings
banks. and unanimously adopted an ap-
peal by the Porto Rican delegates to
President Roosevelt and Congress for re-
forms in that insular possession with but
one amendment, accepted by the Porto
Ricans, calling for an immediate terri
torial form of government for Porto Rico.
