Boy Stowaway on Presidents Car.
At Albion, the homo Of Representative
Gardner, several thousand people were
waiting for the Presidents arrival on the
conclusion of his speech. As the train
was leaving. a boy about eight years old
climbed on the car and was not seen
until after the train had left the station.
He was crying bitterly, and refused 20
leave the train. saying he had come 10
see the President. He was shown 10 the
Presidents room, and Mr.. Roosevelt
shook hands with him and asked him
his name He said il was Herbert Lynch
and that he lived IN Albion. Protesting
that he did not wish 10 leave the Presi-
dent, he was left at the next station 10
be sent back 10 Albion by the next train
The President asked that the station
agent inform him by telegraph OF the
boys safe return TO his mother.

PRESIDENTS SPEECH PLEASEs.
Wall Street Appreciates Effort 10
Restore Confidence in Railways.

New York. May 3l.-On the whole. Wall
street seemed well pleased to-day with
President RooscveIrs indianapolis speech.
That an effort had been made 20 restore
confidence In railway securities was ac-
knowledged and appreciated. For many
weeks Wall street has felt the lack of
public interest in the market.
What was probably criticised more than
anything else in the speech was the idea
of having the Interstate Commerce Com
mission undertake the physical valuation
Of the railroads. Bankers as well az rail-
way officials were agreed that any effort
az this time 10 revalue the roads would
have disastrous effect on the attitude
Of investors toward outstanding securi-
ties It was pointed out In that connec-
tion that experts could not agree on plac-
ing a fair valuation upon such property.
Any attempt 20 value the railroads would
practically be a revaluati0n, 10 was
pointed out and the uncertainty that
would result from the execution Of such a
plan would disturb the confidence Of in
ycstOrs.
