 Tonight he had so far recovered that he was able to appear at a big popular banquet given in the auditorium here.
 The banquet was billed to commence at 6 oclock, but 1t was not until 7;45 that the secretary reached the hall. He was somewhat pale but his face was wreathed in smiles. The 2000 seated at the tables, and as many more, who occupied seats in the boxes and balconies, cheered him lus- tily.
 The secretary stated that he was feel ing much better, and that his attack was merely severe fit of indigestion, which undoubtedly has been brought on by the continuous series of banquets which has been rendered him since he left Washing ton.
 Plates were laid for 20OO, while the boxes and galleries were thronged.
 Secretary IaIt cOuiu nol DeSlH nio speech for some moments.
 Precipitation stood on his face but hls voice was strong and he was heard in all parts of the great auditorium. He said:
 Tt has come to be my portion to receive the hospitality from a great many people, from those in the Philippines, from Pan ama Cuba Porto Rico, and to have with Senator Clapp, at my right hand, to run the risk of several winters in Wash ington, but it has remained for me to surrender to the Twin Cities of the north.
 Seriously the condition in which l find myself tonight is my own fault. The fact is, that 1 caught cold and added to my indiscretion by eating too heartily, and am confronted with weakness that I ought not to confess.
 q ought not to be here now, but l had A desire to come and witness this wonder full greeting.
 q had hoped to invite your attention to what has been accomplished in construct ing the Panama canal, and to give you an idea of what we have been doing on the isthmus, but I must plead my condi- ton and simply give you an outline Mr. Taft then sketched the history of the canal idea, told of the difficulties in the way of a sea-level waterway, told of the progress made and passed the work of John Stevens.
 After a few words of excuse for cut ting his address so short, the secretary entered an automobile and returned to the home of J. c. Hill.

JAPANESE PRESS
 IS SENSATIONAL
PATIENCE NOT WlTHcUT LlMiT.' PAPERS POINT OUT DANCER OF KEEPING THE PUBLIC IN sUs- PENSE.

Tokio, June 14.-As was expected the comment this morning of the press re- garding the American incident is sensa- tional. The Nchi Nichi says:
 "Japan's patience has been tried on esv- eral occasions. and she has always shown the power of self-restraint under the most straitened conditions, but her patience Is not without limit"
 The papers insist upon speedy steps being taken to remove all doubt about the San Francisco incidents and points out strongly the danger from keeping the pub lie in suspense longer.
 It is whispered in diplomatic circles that while the San Francisco incident is regret able, it is likely to serve as an occasion for concluding an entente with the Uni- ted States much similar to the one with France.
