Is due to a descendant, the Rev. Mi
chael Lee Minch, Lutheran minister,
and to former Secretary of the Treas
ury Shaw and the late John Hay. Mr..
Hay and Mr.. Shaw both interested
themelTes in the matter of claims that
either Robert Morris or Samuel Mere
dith. and not Hillegas, was the first
treasurer, and from the government
archives obtained proof of the cor.
rectness Of the contention of the Rev.
Mr.. Minch and others who defended
the cause OF Hillegas.
Mr.. Hillegas was sugar reflner,
iron manufacturer and merchant in
Philadelphia before the Revolutionary
war. He placed his funds and his
credit ct the disposal of George Wash
ington when that patriot needed as
sistance, and it was but natural that
he should have been given the post OF
treasurer when the infant republic
came into being. Mr. .Hillegas' fad
was historical research, and he was
very fond of music.

veniences, now being installed in the
building is a stock ticker service.
Nothing of that kind has ever been
known before at the Capitol, although
divers Senators and members have been
accused of keeping in pretty close
touch with Wall street.
The Speaker is saying nothing about
his own presidential boom. He still
has his lightning rod up and is con-
ferring on occasion with Congressional
friends who are expected TO help bring
delegates to his support. But he is

FAN BATHS IN TYPHOID FEVER

Fan baths is the latest remedy en-
ployed by the Cincinnati city hospital
physicians in the treatment OF typhoiT
fever. Heretofore the ice plunge was
used. and patient whose temperature
had reached the danger point was
soused in a bath tub filed with brok-
en- ice until his teeth ratified. This
treatment after time was found to-
be too heroic, as the shock was too
severe and pneumonia sometimes de-
veloped. The ice water sponge baths
were substituted, but the fan bath,
the doctors declare, are just the thing.
The patient is sponged off with ice
water first, then a sheet that has been
soaked in ice water is wrapped about
the body and more ice water sprinkled
on the sheet. The current of an cleo
trio fan is then turned on him in such
a way that he gets the most benefit
from the air that is stirred up. Re-
cent experiments have proved this
measure highly successful.

TAFT WAS RUSHED.
The Secretary's brief visit in Wash
ington last week was full of rush and
work. There was lot of War Depart
ment business accumulated on his desk.
The hot weather did not deter him
from plunging into this task and de-
voting what odd moments he could
spare to talking with political callers.
His candidacy has now grown to the
proportions that small politicians and
visitors from many parts of the country
haunt his ante-room whenever he is
at the department. BY the time he
returns from the Philippines, if his
candidacy persists, his Office viii be-
come something of rival with the
White House offices, as far as political
pilgrims are concerned. Men,b. of
the House and senators, who char pion
his cause, as many administration Con-
gressmen undoubtedly are ready to do,
will flock to the War Department fer
inspiration and instruction.
His speeches between now and Sep
TENDER 10, the day when he sails from
Seattle ON the steamship Minnesota for
Yokohama, promise to form an inter
esting chapter in the presidential cam
paign. Having spoken Monday at
Columbus, Ohio, the Secretary will
speak in Oklahoma, at Springfield and
Joplin, Mo-, Denver, Colo, Portland,
Oregon, and at Tacoma and Seattle,
Washington. Nearly all, if not all,
these speeches will be delivered in cen.
ters where there is a disposition among
the people to favor his nomination.
UNCLE JOE SILENT.
Speaker Cannon's visit to Washing
ton was rather picturesque. He came
unannonneed and Unexpectedly. Gen
orally when he visits Washington in
the height of the duh summer season
the Speaker is willing to talk a little
for publication but he was silent this
time. He is one of the committee on
the part of the House that is super
vising the construction of the great new
office building, just south of the Capitol.
This fact always gives him a plausible
errand for visiting the capital city and
when he has come on matters of politics
that he is not DESTROYS of informing
the public about, he generally states
that it is on business connected with
the new Office building.
That structure is now nearing com
pletion and by December will be ready
for occupation by the $500 members of
the National House, numbering $50 and
a few delegates. The offices are of the
most substantial character and will
give the Congressman place to In
vite their friends and also a place
to write letters and conduct their off
cial business. A tunnel, now being con-
structed, will enable the members to
walk underground from the office build

the tariff for the next national eonven-
ton.
The President has a strong personal
reason for injecting revision into the
current midsummer politics. Senator
Foraker has been inveighing against
the revisionists in Ohio and has been
making quite an impression thereby.
Senator Foraker is the object of the
President IS animosity more than any
other man in public life and when the
Senator makes a telling point the Presi-
dent is not likely to rest easy till he
finds way to "get back at him.
Of course, Senator Foraker has been
inveighing chiefly sgainst Secretary
Taft, which further increases the Presi-
dents resentment. Secretary Taft Is
speech was largely in answer to Sen
ator Foraker and for that reason the
President wanted to "touch up'' the
speech so that it would reflect his own
view. The Secretary, of course, spoke
as representative of the administra-
tion, as wen as in his personal capacity.
THE TAFT BOOM.
Unquestionably the President has
been canvassing the situation somewhat
with reference to the Taft presidential
Doom. He may have been doing so on
a very extensive scale That is in
dicated by the class of politicians who
nave been called to see him. The day
before Secretary Taft arrived at
Oyster Bay, the President had as lun-
eheon guests State Chairman Timothy
Woodruff and William Barnes, Jr. a
member of the New York State Com
mlttee. Mr.. Woodruff and Mr.. Barnes
are IN full accord with the President s
political program in New York State
and side with him in his efforts to
nave the Empire State delegation de-
hvered to Secretary Taft, rather than

{Mail Special to the Advertiser


WASHINGTON, D. c., August IS
That the President is engaged in some
important matters at Oyster Bay is
beyond question. just what he is do
ing has not yet reached the public.
There has been series of luncheons
at Sycamore Hill in the last few days,
at which prominent political guests
have been hidden. They are all non
committal on departing and one can
learn nothing authoritatively. The
stock phrase of calling "on routine
business has been overworked.
Some people reason that the Presi-
dent is shaping up his plans for legis-
lation by Congress next winter and
that the bills he wants introduced and
passed to further protect purchasers of
railroad securities and for other pur-
poses have been drawn in the rough
The guests he has been inviting to
Oyster Bay hardly indicate that he is
chiefly engaged on that work at pres
emit, although Secretaries Root and Taft
and Speaker Cannon could well have
been consulted ON those matters. They
usually have been consulted when the
President had railroad or corporation
legislation in hand.
TARIFF REVISION.
1t is known that he has talked with
Secretary Taft about the latter IS speech
on tariff revision to be delivered at
Columbus, Monday, August 10, en- route
to the Philippines and about the Sec
retary's declaration with reference
to his own attitude on several campaign
issues. For that reason the Secretary s
Columbus speech will stand as also ex-
pressive of the President s attitude.
The Republicans who want no agitation
about the tariff for the present disap-
prove of that. They do not want the
President to further disturb business
at this time by getting the business
men aroused over prospective changes
IN the schedules.
1t may be that Speaker Cannon viii
talk soon with the President on that
subject. He has gone to New England
for vacation. The two have had some
lively discussions about tariff. The
speaker is very insistent now, as he
has been all along, that the present or
sixtleth Congress was elected ON the
issue of LET well enough alone'' and
that the administration ought to leave
