PRINCETON, June 25.-President
Roosevelt and others have sent mes
sages of coincidence to Mrs. Cleve-
land. Among chief events in the life
of Grover Cleveland none is SO well
remembered as his repeal of the Sher-
man silver purchase act, which forced
the government to buy certain
amount of silver monthly. He attrib-
nted the panic of 1898 to the measure
to do Immediately away with 1t. In
1895 he delivered his famous Vene-
zuelean message, which caused Eng
land TO stop encroa ching on territory
OF that country. He took the position
that the Monroe doctrine made the
United States supreme on the western
hemisphere. In both of his elections
to the presidency he opposed thou
sands of Democrats who were for the
free coinage of silver.
He was elected mayor of Buffalo,
and his record was such he received
the nomination for governor. He
made record here, too. which led to
his nomination for the presidency.
