WILL GO TO THE COUNTRY

New York. August 2s.-As the Kaiser
Wilhelm II hourly draws nearer to her
pier in New York, public interest in
Mr. Harrimans return grows acute.
Great anxiety as to his health has found
expression in a series of published ap-
precautions of his personality and achieve
ments, such as probably never before
have been accorded a private citizen.
There is manifest disappointment in
Wall street that Mr.. Harriman's sojourn
abroad has not set him up sufficiently
to Immediately resume active direction
of the great interests with which his
name is associated. Tomorrow. the day
that he lands, both the Southern and
the Union Pacific directors are to meet,
but 1t has not even been suggested from
any authoritative source that Mr.. Har-
riman will make any attempt to attend
these meetings, which are expected to
declare dividends and deal with other
matters of Importance.
On the contrary, after a brief recep-
ton at the Erie railroad station, he goes
direct to his new country place at Arden
for further rest.

trusted lieutenants, spoke of his chief
today with a seriousness and warmth
that brought the tears to his eyes.
'Mr. Hartman" said he. has been
pictured as an ogre, huge spider, an
octopus. You don't know what big
hearted, big-souled man he really is. I
call him today the biggest, the brainiest,
the most patriotic American we have
Educated in Wall street. he yet has
none of that provinciality sometimes at
tributed to the born and bred New York
er. He was always in sympathy with
the west and intuitively OWNED its needs
Other men have helped, but Hartman
blazed the trail.
IF / should be asked to name the chief
characteristics that have contributed to
his success I should say: His wizardry
with figures, his faculty for getting in
stantly to the kernel of facts, his judg-
ment of men and his insight into and
faith In the future.
HE has the gift of seizing on the
meaning of a maze of figures in flash.
He knows what he wants definitely and
makes it understood briefly. He makes
changes, but the very men shifted will
tell you that they do better work In
the new positions where he places them.
His enthusiasm is contagious and inspires
his subordinates.

NO MOVEMENT TO
ARREST REYES

Laredo, August 23.-From a reliable
source in Monterey 1t is denied that
there has been any concerted move
ment of federal troops looking to the
arrest of Gen. Bernardo Reyes, gov
ernor of Nuevo Leon. il is also stated
That General Reyes is still visiting in
the neigh borhood of Galeana and that
no endeavor on the part of tile federal
authorities has been made TO in any
way Inconvenience Reyes
II can be stated with certainty tn at
recently there has been ho movement
from Saltillo, Monterey or Monte Mo-
relos to. or in the vinicity of Galeana.
The two former mentioned cities arc OF
the line of the National Railway of
Mexico. Monte MuIelos is on the line
of the Mexican Central or the old Mon
terey and Mexican Gulf railroad, line
running from Monterey to Tampico. No
troops have traversed either of those
ines today.
The source from which this informa-
ton is CLEANED ridicules the story to
the effect that federal troops are en-
deavoring to bring about the arrest or
General Reyes, and points out That snch
actioD would only result in state OF
affairs that has thus far been avoided.
Genel al Reyes is qui ,tly visiting in ND
vicinity of Galeana and is taking no
active part in the political efforts Of
the Reyesitas to orlEg about his can
didacy for the office of vice president.
So popular is the general with his
party that it is feared that any effort
on the part of the federal government
to place him under arrest would inclte
his Jealous partisans to such an extent
that riot and bloodshed would newt
ably result.

Nashville Policemen viii Try Gum
Shoe Sleuthing.

Nashville, August 23.-Believing that an
officer in uniform is handicapped In the
effort to suppress violations of the pro-
hibition law in Nashville, Mayor James
S. Brown has instructed Chief of Police
Henry Curran to order all policemen to
lay aside uniforms until further notice
and report in plain clothes. The men will
also discard their police clubs.
The order goes into effect tomorrow
morning. Among other things the order
says:
Il desire that the policemen be put
upon the same footing as the detective
force in SO far as patrolling the city is
concerned; that is, they will not be con-
fined to the wards to which they were
last detailed but will be allowed to go
where they think they can render the
best service in detecting the violations of
the liquor laws"

Washington, August 2S-In the absence
of Justice McKenna from the city, his
friends here scout the report that he is
preparing to retire from the supreme
court bench. They admit that he is not
in good health, but say that his health
is no worse than it has been for some
time.
If he should retire now Justice Nc
kenna would not be entitled, because of
lack of age, to the full salary of a
judge.
The salary is continued to members
of the court who have attained the age
of 20 years, and have served for ten
years. Mr.. McKenna has served the re-
quisite time, but he lacks almost four
years of being 10 years old.

EASY TO CUT DOWN
SIZE OF THE ARMY

Washington, August 23.-Returning
prosperity is having it's effect on recruit
ing men for the United States in keep
ing up it's standard for the army. Fol-
lowing the panic of 1907 splendid ma
terial was obtainable for the army from
among the ranks of the unemployed. In
the army today are "a $50 men, exclusive
of hospital corps, which number $500 men.
AS the terms of enlistment of the men
expire 1t is no easy matter to induce de-
sirable men to re-en1ist.
1t will not be a hard matter, there
fore, to reduce the size of the standing
army, in accordance with President Tafts
wishes Ostensibly the cause of the re-
duction is the difficulty of obtaining good
men but the reason really Is one of
economy.
Every man reduced means a saving of
$1,000 a year and If the reduction pro-
posed reached 5000 men by July l next the
total annual saving will amount to $4,000
900 per year. President Taft has been
insistent on reductions.
Necessary construction work OF all
kinds has been postponed and the acqui-
sitno Of other needed equipment has
been deferred.
