DISCUSS FUTURE OF
THEODORE ROOSEVELT
SENATOR CLARK DECLARES HE
SHOULD BE MADE MANAGER
OF THE PANAMA CANAL
WORK

Clark, of Missouri, opened the de-
preparation bill today with quota
tion from the scriptures, saying,
Saint Paul, the greatest philoso-
pher of all time, in his epist!e to
Timothey said But if any provide
not for his own, and especially those
of his own house, he hath denied the
faith and is worse than an infidel.
Chairman Burton, he said, was
supposed to dominate the committee
on rivers and harbors and If that was
true he could have written his name
on the scanty list of the immortals
by standiny for the deepening of the
channel of the Mississippi river, but,
he added, Mr.. Burton's name was not
there.
: In the course of his speech, Mr..
Clark referred to the presidents pos
sible future in the following words:
Many suggestions have been made
in the public press as TO the career of
President Roosevelt after his term
expires. 1t has been suggested that
he be elected to the senate OF the
United States.
Il am not the adviser Of the people
of New York, but if they are to con-
tinue the unhappy habit of sending
republicans to that body my voice is
for Roosevelt for that position. The
subsequent proc sxllags would be de-
cidedly interesting.
s'Only two ex-presidents have re-
turned to. Congress. John Quincy
Adams served seventeen years in the
house, dying with the harnes on his
back, us no doubt he would have de-
cided to do had he been consulted
about his exit from this world.
''It is truth in history to say that
his fame rests more upon his service
in this house than upon his long pub
lie. service in other positions, extend
ing from the time when, IA years
of age, he was secretary of legation,
to the day when he quit the White
House in high dungeon, refusing to
accompany his victorious opponent,
Andrew Jackson to the White House.
Another suggestion is that Presi-
dent Roosevelt shall be made presi-
dent of Harvard university, certainly
tempting position for man OF
scholarly tastes.
Another suggestion is that Colonel
Roosevelt be made perpetual presi-
dent of The Hague tribunal. That
he would discharge his duties of that
high place goes without saying.
''Still another suggestion is that he
be made manager of the Panama
canal-the most splendid suggestion
of all. An isthmain canal has been
the dream of men since John Balboa
first looked with amazement and de-
light upon the peaceful ocean. The
man who achieves the honor of ac-
complishing that vast work will never
be forgotten. Why Wallace or Shonts
or any man who had any chance to
connect his name with that under
taking would relinquish it for any
financial consideration whatsoever
like the Peace of God, passes all un-
derstanding"

SEA WASHED SITE AWAY.
New York Must Choose New Place al
Jamestown for Building.

NORFOLK, Va, January 4.-Because of
the flashing of the waves New York state
has no site for her building on the grounds
of the jamestown exposition. Enough of
the site that had been selected has washed
away to render what is left of ii inadequate
for the pretentious structure that the en-
pire state viii erect. Another site VIII be
selected.
Clarence Luce. architect of the New York
building, is now in Norfolk and will let the
contract for the construction of the build
ing as soon as a new site has been deter
mined upon. There are several other fine
sites available.
THE original site selected for the building
was the most prominent state building site
On the grounds, being on the water front.
directly opposite the government buildings.
The government objected to its being erect
ed there and the waves Of Hampton roads
roared and sustained the objection.
New Yorks will be the most commodious
and expensive state building on the expo
sition grounds. $4,000 of the S1500o0 ex-
position appropriation made by the state
going into its erection. The new site VIII
also be on the water front.

NO TIDINGS OF RYAN.
Mystery of Recent Disappearance Re-
mains Unsolyed.

The mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of Thomas F. Ryan of the Timers
Union is unsolved At a late hour this af-
ternoon the statement was made that alb
solutely no trace had been found of the
missing man. Mr.. E. ]. Ratigan, a close
friend of Ryan, expressed the fear that he
had been fouIly dealt with, as he knew of
no reason why he should have left the city
SO mysteriously, nor could he give any
theory as to his absence from his family.
Mr. Ratigan said he inserted a special no
tice in The Star yesterday, addressed: R
T. F." the initials Of Ryan, in the hope
that he might learn something of his where
abouts, but as yet there had been no re-
sponse to the advertisement Two of
Ryan's sons called at police headquarters
yesterday and, producing the special notice,
showed it to Detective Pratt with the re-
ouest that he investigate 1.-THE mysterious
publication" This gave rise to the belief
that the missing man had been heard from.

Liquid Measure For nilkmen.

One OF the largest meeting of milkship-
pers ever held in Philadelphia took place
at the Hotel Windsor last Saturday when
representatives of the Philadelphia Milk
Shipper Union and the New Jersey Pro-
tective Association assembled to discuss
the milk situation in New Jersey, Penn
sylvania and Delaware. 1t was decided
that on and after July l next all milk
shipped by members of the organizations
should be sold by liquid measure only.
This action means that the shippers are
to take the long disputed matter into their
own hands and no longer permit the deal
ers to dictate as to the name in which
the dairymen shall dispose of their milk.
During the last few months this question
has attracted attention all over the three
States represented at the meeting, as milk
producers have been up in arms before
their Legislatures in support OF measures
designed to compel the selling OF milk by
quid measure alone. In Pennsylvania
and Delaware such laws have been passed
but in New Jersey the bill passed~by the
Legislature less than a month ago is be-
ing held up for the signature of Governor
Stokes.
Objection to the present method of do
ing business is based oil the fact that the
farmers have been compelled for many
years to sell their milk by dry measure,
while the dealers have been peddling it by
liquid measure Thus they have made IL
quarts on every 100 they receive.
