everybody who had read the history
OF our civil war knew that after the
sinking Alabama had run No the
white flag Of surrender and Commo-
dore Winslow Of the Kearsaree had
ordered his seamen to cease firing
and sent boats to the relief of the
enemy's seamen, two treacherous win.
dlctlve shots were fired at the Amer
lean warship; but until President
Roosevelt disclosed his identity the
world was ignorant Of the name of the
"vindictive" barbarian who fred
those "last two shots" in violation
OF the usages Of civilized warfare.
Commodore Winslow was so indig-
nant that he ordered another broad
side to be fired. 1t is due to the
truth Of history to say that nobody
antagonistic to the Confederate cause
regarded such manifestation of
"vindictiveness" as more reprehen-
sible than did the brave and honor
able men who supported that cause.
When we consider the strength Of
hereditary influence. should we not
throw the mantle Of charity over ev-
cry act Of apparent vindictiveness
that Mr.. Roosevelt displaysf He is
not responsible nor justly censurab7

CROP MOVEMENT.

Joined with other causes making
for stringency in the money market
is the approach of the crop-moving
season. But the outlook is not bad.
1t is, indeed, far from discouraging
or disquieting. AS the Wall Street
Journal, by the way, one of the san
est and most conservative papers in
the country, pointed out the other
day, the available resources of the
United States treasury, which may be
employed in case Of necessity, to aid
the money market during the crop
movement, are really larger than
they appear from current reports of
the available cash balance The state
ment Of July 6, shows cash in the
general fund $189, ,294,5O7, and this
exclusive of the reserve fund of
$3.50, 100000 in gold and of the gold
coin and silver dollars held in the
treasury for the redemption of gold
and silver certificates and treasury
notes of 1890.
Subtracting from the $1S9, 1894, ,507
cash in the treasury, the total Of
115,889,868, so-called current iabil-
tiles, actually more than the required
working balance, there remains for
use in assisting the money market
nearly $75,OOO,000.
The Wall Street Journal concludes:
Granting for the sake Of concession
to prejudice due to the manner in
which the treasury department has
heretofore been made up, that $685.
100000 should be reserved for a
working balance in addition to the
so-called current liabilities, it thus
appears that the secretary of the
treasury will be able to deposit $780,
100000 in national banks during the
coming crop movement, if SO much
money should be needed to prevent
stringency in the money market.

PLEA FOR MR.. ROOSEVELT
FROM COL. J. B. BROWNLOW.

Says Hereditary Influences May Ac-
count for His Vindictivs Acts
As An Executive.
The New York Sun publishes a
card from Col. John B. Brownlow,
Of this city, under the caption, ga
Plea for Mr.. Roosevelt" AS is
well known here, Col. Brownlow's
pen has produced some scathing
opinions of the man in the white
house, and this "plea'' is none the
less interesting and characteristic.
Col. Brownlow writes the Sun 40 fol-
lows:
To the Editor Of The Sun--Sir: In
his recent speech at Provincetown,
President Roosevelt said that "his
acts in the prosecution Of trusts
would not be guided by vindictive-
ness. !" l have no doubt that Ill this
particular instance MIR. Roosevelt
spoke sincerely. He believes that all
his acts are free from vindictive and
all other unworthy motives. His ego
tism is such that he thinks he Is the
embodiment Of all the virtues Of the
greatest and best men who ever lived,
and that he is not possessed OF any
of the frailties that characterize Or
dinary mortals.
But If it could be shown that the
president had been guided by win
dictiveness" in any act Of his life,
/ think he should be pardoncd there
for because of heredity. One OF his
uncles by the name of BullOch who
was in the Confederate serv Ice de-
clared when the war ended In 1900
that he so hated the government OF
the United States that he would nev-
er again live under IT," lie expa-
triated himself, going TO London,
where he died after many years OF
residence. His expatriation was en-
tirely voluntary and unnecessary, as
he was of too little consequence to
be molested by the United States au-
thoritieS after the war. His sole IN
spiration was his vindictiveness"
toward all who had differed with bim.
There was justification for Sena-
tor Robert Toombs, of Georgia, ex-
Vice-President John c. Breckenridge
of Kentucky, Governor lsham q. Har-
ris, of Tennessee, and other leaders
of the Confederacy when they lied to
Europe on the surrender of Lee, be-
cause they had reason to believe that
they would be arrested and imprls-
oned if they remained in the states
1t is to the credit of all those seces-
sion leaders that after they had lived
in Europe about one year and the an
prv passions of the conflict had sub
sided they felt that they could safe
" return to their native land. One

ernor of Tennessee in 1861 forced

By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PITTSBURG, Dec. 2s.-Howard Ray,
15-year- old lad, on his way to San
Francisco hoping to find his home and
his parents, whom he left before the
earthquake, told a wonderful story of
adventure as sailor, of being shang-
haied by the crew of British ship
and of being maltreated by United
States consul In Brazil, to whom he
applied for relief, In the police station
here last night when he appeared and
asked for lodging.
When thirteen years old he said he
shipped as cabin boy at San Fran
cisco on the steamship Chile. bound
for Cape Town. As cabin boy and as
ordinary seaman, often performing the
full duties of grown man. he worked
his way on different ships to Sydney.
Melbourne and to many other points.
finally landing at Rio Janeiro. Brazil,
where he was seized with a desire to
return home
He shipped on boat bound for Nor
folk va, and reached that port with
out adventure and was given his pay
for the voyage and his discharge.
walking through the streets of Nor
folk he says he was suddenly seized by
sailors of the British coal steamer
Titalia and carried aboard. where he
was kept prisoner for several days
until the ship sailed. Then he was re-
leased and put to work as sailor.
The ship was short of men and he was
forcibly taken on as recruit. In the
course of time he was again In Rio
Janeiro, where he complained to the
United States consul.
That official, the lad AYERS. gave him
curt treatment. hushed up the fact OF
his having been shanghaied after sew
eral conferences with the British con-
sui. and finally refused to help him TO
get back to the United States because
h +, could not produce proof that he was
an American citizen.
The British consul. the lad says. Sc
cured him a chance to work his way
back to New York. where he arrived a
few days ago. He stole his way to
Altoona on a freight train. he says,
and the authorities at the latter place
gave him transportation to Pittsburg.
He hopes to be given help here and at
other points that will take him to San
Francisco.
whether he will find his parents
there he does not know. He had heard
nothing from them since the earth
quake. Pittsburg authorities will
probably give him some help.

Mrs Prisco's husband has been dead
some months and with four little ones,

night until she was taken Ill. Her pride
prevented her from asking for aid, so
she saved what bits of food she could
obtain for her litic ones while she grad

lack of food.
The last bits Of crusts went for the
children's Christmas dinner and then In
the morning neighbors heard the crying
of the little ones In the unfurnished room
In which the mother and children lived.
They entered and found Mrs. Frisco dy-
ing and the children weak from the lack
of food and cold.
The police removed the mother to q hos
pital and the Children'5 society took
care of the little ones.
When the physicians found that all
hope for the mother was gone the little
ones were sent for and Mrs. Frisco was
assured that they would be cared for
The children were happy again, for they
had plenty Of food and toys and as the
tired mother realized that their suffer-
ings were over, her heart was stnled
and her sacrifice was complete.

lessly facing a situation which Will reach
its climax with the first cod wave.
Although the managers of the relief or

formal conference of the various charity
organizations yesterday that 1t became
known that more than $4,000 strangers
were homeless In this city and that at
least half that number spend nights on
benches and floors wherever shelter is
afforded.
While the tide of the unemployed who
are focking into the city has not been
stemmed, the charity organization mem
bers are making vain attempts to care
for those already here, and the authori-
ties in charge of the charity organiza-
ton headquarters are planning measures
which will make the life of the wanderer

In an effort to decide on a plan which
will bring the charitable organizations
together, another meeting will be called
next week, when 1t is expected that a
definite system will be inaugurated for

Special to Tho Herald.
PI ENIX. Ariz., Dec. ga man
named O'Brien, employed in the Scanlon
Indian agency, reports to the Phoenix
authorities that on December he met
and talked with billy" Stiles at VIII
low Springs.
Stiles is q fugitive from Justice, hav-
ing escaped several years ago from the
Torsbstone Jail. where he was held by
the federal authorities pending trials
of himself and others implicated in
train and mail robbery. He was the
chief figure in the gang committing
many deoredations and now is consid-
cred the most desperate outlaw on
either side of the Mexican line.
Former confederates. including Burt
Alvord served prison terms and are
again free. Since escaping from the
Tombstone jail Stiles has committed
various crimes In Mexico and reward
is offered there of $1,000 and $4,000
dead, making this side of the line more
attractive.
O'Brien knows Stiles by sight. but
when he met him he, did not disclose
that fact O'Brien was inspecting gov
ernment brands on Indian cattle In Pa
pago county and came on Stiles camp
accidentally. Stiles gave the name OF
Lopez and was accompanied by nine
well armed, well mounted, desperate
looking Mexicans. One laid his hand
on O'Brien's shoulder and asked If he
was sure he came for no other purpose
than announced. The incident closed
with a negative reply. The only war
rant out for stiles In this country is
held by a United States marshal. The
outlaw recently sent word to the mar
shall naming the conditions of surren-
der, but the officer replied he could not
negotiate with him.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2S.-"The claim
made by Walter ]. Bartnett that he had
no active part in the management OF the
California Safe Deposit and Trust COM
many has No foundation In fact. and is
absolutely untrue" was the statement
mad. today by Assistant District Attor-
ney William Hoff Cook, who has had
charge of the investigation into the al
fairs of the insolvent bank, In wnlch the
money of 1900 depositors is tied up.
..Bartnett, not Brown, as is generally
supposed was the big stick In the
bank" declared the assistant district at
torney. "Bartnett was vice president OF
the company and my investigation mas
disclosed that it was he and not BroWn
who was the active head Of the institu-
tion. There was little done that was not
first passed UP to Bartnett for his ap-
proval.
al have examined a vast mass OF cor
respordence which has not been placed
before the grand jury, relating TO the
affairs OF the bank and the various nnan-
cial propositions Its officials were In
terested in. From this correspondence
q can say that to use simile, Bart
nett was as great trickster in finance
as George y. Collins, the notorious at
torney. was in law.
1.-The correspondence examined by me
shows that Bartnett was day dreamer,
with projects and schemes of various
kinds, constantly in perspective, and that
he did not scruple to misrepresent facts
In order to interest people and to get
control of t-ieir ,oney.
.'Bartnett's attempts to shift all re-
sponsibility for the disappearance OF the
Cotton securities. as we'll as for the fail
ure of the bank, upon Brown, Will not
succeed.
Examination Of the banks correspond
ence has revealed that Bartnett had au-
thority to stop Brown in anything that
he did not approve Of"
Cook reiterated that the stocks be-
longing to the Cotton estate. alleged 10
have been found in the vaults of the
hank. were not part of the missing se-
curities.
'.The rtocks referred to were never lost
or found. We knew where they were
and what they were," said he.
The assistant district attorney We
hemently denied reports that Bartnett
and David S. Walker, president of the
bank. would be given immunity.
'In my opinion Bartnett materially In
1ured his defense III voluntarily testify
ing before the grand jury yesterday"
Said Cook.
.'As for Walker. the evidence against
him is more negative and circumstantial
but there is no intention on the part of
the district attorneys office to give him
immunity, ano his connection and re-
sponsibility will be laid before the grand
jury as soon as 1t is through with Bart
