TEDDY" CORDIALLY
WELCOMES PINCHOT
Former Forester and Old Chief Have Lengthy
Conference, but Maintain Silence
AS to Matters Discussed

bott- accompanied Roosevelt and Pin
chot. but they had no share in the dis
-ussion. contenting themselves in en-
loving the beauties of nature and leav-
ing their companions to ramble alone
and converse on the matters Of such
vital interest not only to them, but to
all Americans.
The conference did not end today.
but viii be resumed tomorrow. indicat-
ing that there are certain further facts
which Roosevelt desires to ascertain
which were suggested by Pinchots
conversation.
asked Roosevelt this evening if
lie had anything to say with reference
10 The revelations Of his former subor-
dinate He answered: Il personally
am very much attached to Pinchot. 1
was very glad 10 see him and listened
10 everything ne had to say. as 1 shall
listen 10 any friend of mine on any
side Of any public question. We came
10 no conclusion and shall come to no
conclusion. L shall make no statement
after any other conference I may have"
Beaming as Pinchot appeared to be,
his feelings gave no vent in other
words than the statement: L have
nothing to say"
The refusal of Roosevelt and Pinchot
to talk nevertheless does not prevent
me from saving that Roosevelt is as
deeply interested in all questions re-
Iating TO conservation of American re-
sources as when he was in the White
House. He feels that it is vital for the
present as well as future generations
that the policies he inaugurated in this
connection shall be carried to fruitiOn.
He thought when he retired from the
presidency that such a splendid i'm
petus had been given TO the policies
that they could be regarded as fixed
principles and as such loyalty observed
and carried out. He firmly believes
that the people now realize the impor-
tance OF the things he advocates and
viii insist upon their accomplishment
in every respect.

of the trouble and most of the expense

to discourage or defeat candidates the

WILL FIGHT EXTRADITION
Frank N Hoffstot. the alleged leader
of pool that raised $4,000 fund to
influence legislation in favor of six
Pittsburg banks, will fight extradition
from New York. His local attorney.
w. B. Rogers, gave out letter tonight
to District Attorney Blakeley, in which
he declared the decision to fight extra
dition was based on the following con-
siderationS:
''It is manifest on the face of the
presentment that the object of the in
dictments recommended therein is to
compel Mr.. HoffstOt to appear before
the grand jury and submit to an eX-
animation by them as TO the very trans
actions concerning which they found
indictments. We think in advance of
trial such a proceeding is improper and
our client should not be exposed to
such injustice"
In reply to the counsel for Hoffstot
District Attorney Blakeley said extra
ditiOn proceedings would begin at once.
The papers are now practically ready
TO forward to Governor Edwin S
Stuart.

The papers will not ask for HoffstOt's

SHEEP--Trade was entirely void of life
in the sheep barn this morning; In fact, the
market was a dead one as far as the
volume of business was concerned. There
was nothing doing.
Moderate receipts we're yarded, the big
end OF the run consisting of fat grass
wethers and yearllngs billed from oregon.
Two or three loads of good spring lambs
were included in the run, but there was
nothing of consequence on sale In the way
Of fed shorn lambs.
A couple OF the larger buyers failed 70
appear in the alleys and those who did
SHOW up refused to place bids during early
rounds, even on the best kinds Of killers
The trend OF prices was naturally lower
and the feeling decidedly bearish, but
hardly enough sales were made during the
first few hours to afford anything like q
broad test of values.
The market continued very slow and dull
winding up around quarter lower on
lambs. The decline during the last two
days has been very sharp, especially or
spring lambs, which are 75cQ$lO0 lower
tnan last week, while old sheep are around

gain over last week and year ago.
The trade in beef steers was without any
very new or interesting features. There
seemed to be a fair demand for desirable
killers, but still II was not sufficiently ac-
tive to induce overly free buying. The cat
tie. however, kept changing hands and
prices on the more desirable kinds were
just about steady, with others slow to pos
sibly little easier.
Cows and heifers generally commanded

sirable grades was In q good healthy con-

AutoiStS to Run

Plan is Made for Pleasant Trip to
the Races on the Fourth
of July.

Members of the Omaha Automobile club
are planning a club run to Tekamah for
July 4. On that day the famous Te-
kamah races will open and many have
signifed their intention to join in the run.
Tekamah is just the right distance from
Omaha to make an ideal run, being about
forty-seven miles overland, which makes
less than century for the round trip. The
road between Omaha and Tekamah is not
only picturesque, but is a splendid drive
kept in good condition In the old bicycle
days it was the favorite century run for
the bicyclists.
with the reorganization of the automobile
club, several runs are planned, and the
members thought the run to the races
would be an ideal one to start the sum
mer's touring.
