CABINET TO HAVE NO VOICE.
None of Presidents Advisers TO BE
Delegates 90 Convention.

After consideration by President Roose-
Welt and his Cabinet, it has been decided
that Secretary of State Root will not 90
as delegate-at-large to the Republican
national convention at Chicago. In fact.
it has been decided that no member OF
the Cabinet shall go to the convention as
a delegate.
This decision will hold good even should
Gov. Hughes make a special request OF
Secretary Root TO act in that capacity.
and the same will apply TO Secretary Cor
telyou
Should members of the Cabinet go to
Chicago as delegates. il is felt that it
might be misconstrued and prove a source
Of embarrassment to the President and
the members OF his Cabinet Since the
announcement of Gov. Hughes candidacy
for the nomination, President Roosevelt
has insisted that none but men sincerely
in favor Of the nomination OF Gov.
Hughes shall go from New York as dele
gates-at-large
Thus il would not be consistent for
the ranking member of the official family
or any other member, 10 go in such
capacity i'm the interests OF the governor
OF New York while their chief is sup
porting Secretary of War Taft.

The district attorney passed out this tip
to the Democrats:
1T is pretty generally understood that
when the Democrats assemble in Faneun
Hall at an early day for the purpose of
choosing delegates to the national conven-
ton at Denver, there is likelihood Of a
repetition of the scenes OF disorder which
characterized last falls State convention
at Springfield.
''The Democratic deli gates want to bear
in mind that when they meet in Faneuil
Hall they will be in Suffolk County, and
that the laws of the Commonwealth made
it crime for certain kinds of conduct in
any public meeting, convention, or church
gathering.

to instruct my assistant to confer with
the commissioner of police and to act
with him. for the purpose of having the

The same information was conveyed
from the Hughes people in New York

MERRY WIDOW IN MANILA.

"a Novel Display il the Fleming Hard,
s5.i6 ware Co.'S Window.
THE Merry Widow Hat in Manila"
is the label on the unique production
in the Fleming Hardware company's
window, certainly original enough to
attract plenty Of attention.
Manila rope wound in coils makes
the crown and brim of a sailor shape
which is four feet in diameter, and
a larger size with a fanciful colored
weave in its acts as the binding.
A large bulldog collar, heavily stud
ded with spikes takes the place of the
usual hat ribbon, while an immense
carpenters aWl furnishes an admira-
BILE hatpin. The frayed ends Of Ma
Mia rope constitute an automobile
veil, tasty and handsome; the final
touch Of trimming is produced by the
addition of a feather duster as a
pompade.
And Fleming has seen to it that
there is a first class showing Of the
"Chrysolite'' ware as a background
to the unique Manila Merry Widow
hat. @.

Heinrich Ernest Mueller, leader of
the Moderate Radicals said:
sour point Of view is that the dec

element in politics will be suppressed.
The Emperor will take counsel of his
chief advisors, namely the Chancellor
in everything that he undertakes and

withstanding that, demand the enact
ment Of a law providing for RESPONSE

We are satisfied with the crisis. We

cellOr." @
Herr Heumann, leader of the Radi-
Gals said:
The imperial declarations show

before the house itself"
Following Chancellor Won Buelow,
Herr Sydew, secretary of the imperial
treasury in a four hours speech in the
Reichstag, explained and defended the

argued that Germany was we'll able

SOLDIER BOYS WERE
IN TOWN LAST NIGHT
cAvALRYMEN MOVED FROM FORT
YELLOWSTONE TO NEBRASKA

Billings had q visit from the soldier
boys last night. One hundred and
thirty-two men Of the Eighth United
States Cavalry, being men from
Troops 3, r, G and H, in charge Of
Lieutenant Smith, passed through on
their way from Fort Yellowstone, in
the Yellowstone Park, to Fort Robin
son, nea Crawford, Neb. The Eighth
Cavalry has been divided between the
two forts, and the men who are now
going to Fort Robinson, are being
transferred, before the balance of the
Eighth, which is now at Fort Yellow
stone, is moved to Fort Huachuca,
Ariz., on the 28th of the present
month. A majority of the enlisted
men now in the regular service are
young, and they had an enjoyable time
on their outing. They spent two hours
in this city and had a pleasant time
while here.
Six of the troopers were left in Bill
ings last night. They wired and re-
ported for duty and left on the next
train to join their command.

KAISER RESENTS
POPULAR ADVICE
FEELS THAT HIS RIGHTS HAVE
BEEN TRAMPLED.
PEOPLE DETERMINED
German Taxpayers Announce That
They Will Mot Recede one Step
from the Advantage They Have
Gained.

BERLIN, Nov. 19.-The Emperor's
moods have always been an object of
study from hour to hour by the mem
bers of his household and they have
carefully, almost painfully, watched
during the recent days. The results
of these observations, with a partial
report of the Emperor's conversations
have been transmitted to circles out
side the court sc that the upper burea-
cratic and diplomatic officials are toll
erably we'll informed as to the mon
arch's personal view on the events
which have been SO greatly agitating
the country.
The prevailing feeling among the
members of the Emperor's suite is
one of resentment at the popular out
burst against him, and there Is no
disposition to sympathize with it or
excuse it. The emperor is described
as feeling that he did not, in the
language of the note he authorized To
be published in the Reichsanzeiger go
beyond his oath when he took 9 the
crown to faithfully observe the cor
ss...tution. He simply reafirmed that
pledge to Chancellor Won Buelow while
under criticism. which the Reichsan-
zeiger defines IS exaggerated and In
correct. The Emperor regards his
heredity and constitutional relation to
Prussia and to the states as unchang-
ed.
"A committee Of the party leaders Of
the Reichstag decided today to defer
for a time in favor of important meas
ures, the discussion of ministerial res
possibility and the recent utterances
of the Emperor When the house
takes up the subject Prince Won Bue-
low will give the Reichstag his per-
sonal deductions on his interview Of
Tuesday with the Emperor.
In his address before the Reichstag
today, on the measures to increase the
imperial revenues, the chancellor said
that he believed the existing unfriend-
'ly feeling toward Germany could be
overcome.
With reference to a question OF the
revenues he declared that a borrowing
policy was unworthy of German pro-
sress and industry. but he added that

Or Would Indicate That He Would
Surprise Either Papke or ketchell-
Going to the Coast.

Jack Sullivan Of Anaconda, who
fought 20-rounds to a tie in Billings,
with Eddie McGoorty Of Oshkosh, Wis,
Is aiming a little higher. He now wants
an engagement with the winner Of the
Papke-Ketchell fight Thanksgiving
day.
Jack expects to go to the coast and
to be in San Francisco to attend the
fight, at which time he will probably
formally challenge the winner. And,
II he gets a bout there will be some
Billings money go Oh the Anaconda
lad.
And, it was a different Sullivan who
fought McGoorty in Billings than
fought Ketchell in Butte. Sullivan
had improved wonderfully in the In
terval and no doubt he would be able
to show the winner Of. the coming bout
a good fight. OF course Ketchell has
improved, he has climbed t%healadder,
but Sullivan is cautious, he has the
goods and the punch and he would be
there with bells on.
Eddie McGoorty, against whom Sui
livan fought in Billings, told the sport
ing editor Of The Gazette after the
bout in the Coliseum rink that Sullt-
van was a far more clever man than
he had expected to meet, and said he
could go against the best in his class.
McGoorty ought to be a good Judge,
for he was the best sparring partner
that Papke aver had, and Papke pre-
dicted that some day Eddie would be a
Champ.
Sullivan is sober, possesses more
than the needed brains, has a good
fighting head and wonderful ring gem
eralship, besides being an all round
athlete. We was a member Of the
Olympian team from America in 1907,
and won the wrestling championship
IN the boat going over. His idea Of
meeting either Papke or Ketchell is
explained in a short statement he made
In Butte as follows:
81 will be in San Francisco in time
for the Papke-Ketchell go, and I will
challenge the winner. | believe / am as
good as either of the men who will
contest for the championship on
Thanksgiving day and would like to
have a chance to show. it.
