CHINAMEN DECORATE GRAVES
Washington Celestials Observe An
nusl Custom Here.
Roast Pork and Baked Chicken Used
with Incense to Coax Evil spirits
from Burial Grounds.

China's Decoration Day, which mas
! been observed annually for thousands Of
years. was celebrated Ia Washington
at the Congressional Cemetery yesterday
by the decoration OF the graves of the
dead with artificial flowers, and the
placing Of roast pork and baked chicken
on the little mounds OF earth. The idea
of the ceremony is TO feed the dead and
tempt the evil spirits, should there be any
about,
The Cinnamon went to the burial
grounds In carriages, taking with them a
large supply of pork. chicken. various
kinds Of sweetmeats, flowers and incense.
one part Of the cemetery has been set
apart for the Chinese. and some atten-
ton was paid to each Of these graves yes
terday. Many Of the graves. according
to the rank and prominence Of the man
in life, were more gorgeously and artis-
ticaily decorated than others. The in
cense was burned during the ceremonies
while the Cinnamon went among the
dead and offered them their favoFite
dishes
Decoration Day among the Chinese was
formerly celebrated on even more exten-
sive scale, wine being taken 70 the ceme-
terry. Boys. however, became aware Of
the custom and took advantage of the
celebration TO partake in the festivities
to such an extent that they would Crafty
their ravenous, youthful appetites Since
this became known among the Chinatown
merchants, the elaborateness of the day
has been greatly modified
While food rests on the graves, more
incense is burned, and the air is fairly
filed with the sweet-seented smoke. Ac-
eording 10 the custom and the belief
among the Celesuals, the evil spirits will
come forward to enjoy the good things to

will follow it away. no one knows where,

The Washington herald., 1907-04-02

President Roosevelt has at last made
his long-expected statement in response
TO the appeals TO speak "a reassuring
word in the hope that it viii put an end
10 the prevailing uncertainty in financial
and railway affairs, which many people
claim is due 10 radical legislation, enacted
and proposed by the national government
and individual States.
In measure the statement is parodoxi-
cal, for il is TO the effect that the Presi-
dent sees no necessity at this time 70
make any public declaration as to his
future course for the reason that he ad-
heres TO all that he has said in the past
and is more firmly than ever convinced
that these beliefs are wise, and that the
policy 1 recommended in my messages at
the opening of each OF the last regular
sessions of Congress must be carried out.
The statement. if it may properly be
called that, was in the form of a letter
which Mr.. Roosevelt wrote and mailed
to the president of the Illinois Manu-
facturers' Association, who headed a del
egation Of that association which called
on Mr.. Roosevelt last week and re-
quested him to make speech at Spring
neld H., that would explain his future
attitude toward railways and other cor
porate interests.
The letter contained a declination Of the
associations invitation to visit Spring
field. the reason given being that the
President could not make any speech that
would contain anything new as TO his
policies,
Sends Comics of SDeeehes
With the letter the President sent copies
Of his speeches and his messages to Con-
gress, the passages in these expressing
his well-known views in regard to govern
ment supervision of railways and inter-
state corporations, being marked. The
passages so designated are intended to
convey that the President to-day adheres
10 what is contained in them as strongly
as he did when these sentimens were
written or spoken.
AZ this time OF uncertainty in financial
affairs, particularly the uncertainty that
affects the financial affairs OF railways. the
most significant thing TO many who have
invested money In railway securities and
who have watched the Presidents atd-
tude closely viii doubtless be the entire
absence in the excerpts from Mr.. Roose-
Felts speeches and messages, to which he
called attention in his letter. Of any ref
erence TO the question OF a Federal in
quiry to ascertain the actual or physical
valuation OF railway properties Double
assurance may be felt by these investors
that the danger of injury to their invest
ments from such an undertaking by the
government is by no means imminent. AS
a matter of fact the President has never
committed himself publicly to the vaIua-
tiOn proposition, and there is no reason
The Washington herald., 1907-04-02
Has Nothing New to Say.

But after carefully considering the invi-
tation from the association, presented
through its delegates last week. the Presi-
dent wrote to C. H. Smith. president Of
the association. saying that it would be
impossible for him to accept the kind
invitation. because he did not feel that he
had anything new to say ct this time in
special address on this special subject
The President enclosed copies OF the two
speeches which he made at Raleigh, n. c.,
on October 19, 1905, and to delegation OF
railway employees in this city on No
vember Il 1895, together with his last
messages TO Congress at the beginning OF
the first and second sessions of the last
Congress.
The Washington herald., 1907-04-02

to believe that he has any present inten-
tiion of doing so. II IS understood that
the President believes that the railways
themselves will voluntarily ascertain and
submit the figures Of the physical valua-
ti0n of their holdings as mere detail
of correct bookkeeping, and that no Fed
egal action will be necessary.
Two Roads Make Valuations.
In support of this view, it is pointed out
that the Great Northern and Northern
aPcihc have made formal statements Of
the physical valuation of their properties
in connection with legal proceedings
pending against them. That other railway
corporations will follow suit appears TO
be the opinion at the White House.
The burden of the residents remarks
10 the Illinois Manufacturers Association.
viewed in connection with the marked pOr-
tions of his speeches and messages, IS that
he will not abandon his policies toward
the railways. 1t can be said authorita-
lively that at the next session Of Congress
he will again ask for power 10 deal with
the question of overcapitallzation. No ac-
ton was taken by Congress when he made
the recommendation originally.
Presidents Position Defined.
Although no signed statement has been
issued by President Roosevelt except his
letter TO the president OF the Illinois Man
ufacturers' Association. the following
may be taken as a clear explanation of the
position which he maintains In regard TO
the railways:
The President has received a great
number OF requests for statement by
him or a speech TO be made by him in
connection with the railroad situation.
Many of these requests come from most
respectable peole, and the President gave
them the utmost weight and most careful
consideration. After thus fully looking
into the matter, the President has come
to the conclusion that there was nothing
new which he had to say at this mo-
ment on the railway situation; that he

Clarence H. Kelsey surrenders.

After evading the police for nine
months, Clarence H. Kelsey, age
twenty-five. who is wanted on the
charge of embezziement. went to police
headquarters yesterday afternoon and
surrendered himself. Kelsey was for
merly employed as a clerk at the Army
and Navy club, in this city, and disan-
peared from there last July, leaving
his accounts about S400 short.
The Washington herald., 1907-04-02
Conclusion of Letter.

The President concluded his letter to
Mr.. Smith as follows:
You will see in the two speeches and
the two messages that I have said about
all that I would say If I spoke now. As
| said TO your body, the other day. / have
already expressed again and again my
carefully thought out beliefs. l am more
fTmy than ever convinced that these be-
liefs are wise and that the policy /
recommended IN my messages at the
opening of each of the last regular ses
sions OF Congress must be carried out.
just at the moment, do not see that I
have much to add TO what I have already
said. and I think that what has occurred
since I wrote the two messages in ques-
tion merely illustrates in striking fashion
the desirability of the course l therein
outlined"

did not deem it either wise OF proper to
say anything with view to any immedi-
ate situation in Wall street. and that as
he should only give expression to the
definite and settled policy to be carried
out wholly without regard to the ext
gencies OF the moment, and as his views
on the policy in question were already
matter OF record. it did not seem neces-
sary at this time TO repeat them.
