President R%oosevelt's address, which
followed Immediately after the unveil-

administration toward the great prop,
lem of federal control of the railroads
and other great public utility corpora

Measure Concerning Pensions Of

Paris, May 31.-French commerce

as the result of a general stryke of the
sailors belonging to the naval reserves.

ports in France.
Entire Maritime Population.
The naval reserve numbers about
III, 900 men, and comprises almost the
entire maritime population devoted to
the s%ea-faring life.
Pension Bill the Cause.
The strike was ordered because the
members of the union regard the gov

from s40.SO to $3.50 in case of sea-
men and $156 to 5000 for captains as
inadequate.

DIES UNEXPECTEDLY.
President of Denver Water Company
Succumbs to ApopIexy.

Denver, Colo, May 31.-Walter S.
Cheesman, president of the Denver
Union Water company, and n of the
foremost capitalists and citizens OF
Denver, died Unexpectedly at 1875 this
morning. He suffered a stroke of par
alysis last Wednesday, but death was
not anticipated by his physicians Or
friends.
Cheesman was born at Hampstead
Harbor, L. l., June 81, 1888, and came
to Denver in 1860, establishing the
drug business. He had been identified
with many of the largest enterprises
Of Colorado and accumulated great
wealth, being the largest owner of
real estate in the business district Of
this city.

the nation to restrain the wrongs COM
mitted by the man of great wealth
who does evil is not only to neglect
the interests of the man Of means
who acts h%onorably by his fellows.
I Crimes of Cunning.
The power of the nation must be
exerted to stop crimes of cunning no
less than crimes of violence. There
can be no halt in the course we have
deliberately elected to pursue, the
policy of asserting the right of the ma.
ton, so far as it has the power, to
supervise and control the business use
of wealth, especially in its corporate
form.
A Most Important Feature.
Today l wish to say a word to you
about the first and most important
feature of this task, the control of the
common carriers doing an interstate
business; a control absolutely vested
in the nation, while in so far as the
common carriers also transport the
mails, it is, in my opinion, probable
that whether their business Is or Is
not interstate it is to the same extent
subject to federal control, under that
clause of the constitution granting to
the national government power to es-
tablish post roads, and therefore by
necessary implication, power to take
all action necessary in order to keep
them at the highest point of efficiency.
Advance Step in Right Direction.
Every federal law dealing with cor
porations or with railroads that has
been put upon the statute books dur
ing the last six years has been a step
in advance in the right direction. All
action taken by the administration
under these and ~pre-existing laws has
been just and proper. Every suit I'M
dertaken during that period has been
a suit not merely warranted, but re-
quired, by the facts; a suit in the in
terest of the people as a whole, and,
in the ling run, particularly in the
interests of stockholders as well as in
the interest of business men of prop
erty generally.
The One Course to Pursue.
