far from being satisfactory" said Rev.
DR.. John Cornell, of the Cathedral Of
ST John the Divine, New York, az the
shoreham last night.
Public offices In New York seem 20
be synonymous with graft and eorrup-
ton" he continued. 81 suppose what ap-
plies to New York applies TO other com
munities in a greater or lesser degree.
Mayor Gaynor, so far, has made fairly
successful executive, and it is supposed
that he has abolished a number OF sine
cures. thus saving to the taxpayers OF
New York thousands Of dollars
But graft fiourishes the same as ever,
and will as long as the first education or
the people at home is neglected. Ihere
should be religious training OF the chill
dren In the public schools, their sense OF
honor and honesty should be developed
| from earliest childhood. Then we might
expect more honest and patriotic gov
ernments.'
DR.. Cornell said that the Guildhail
speech OF Col. Roosevelt was tactless and
uncalled for, 10 say the least.
Imagine a British subject coming TO
| New York and lecturing us on how we
should manage the Philippines or any
other public affair Col. Roosevelt need
not go outside of HIS own country TO seek
reforms; there is lots to be done right
here at home"
| Speaking Of the Cathedral Of st. John
/ the Divine Rev DR.. Cornell said that
the structure when finished would cost
| So, OO0,000, and he somewhat doubted
whether it would be a success, or would
do what IS expected from it.
DR.. Alfred saenger. Of Hamburg. Ger

at the Shoreham. The German savant IS
on his way TO the congress of the Amer
lean Medical Association. which will be
held at St Louis this week. where he
| will read a paper on mental and nervous
diseases.
American medicine in all its branches
is highly regarded by German physicians
and surgeons" said DR.. Saenger. you
| have some well-known specialists IN
your country, many Of whom have not
only studied In the United States. but
have also taken courses in the best med
zeal schools of Europe"
Speaking OF Washington, DR.. Saenger
| said that this city is a beautiful place;
that its palatial buildings, its wide and
clean streets, and shade trees and parks
place Washington at the head Of the
capitals OF the world. Berlin not except
ed. Your Capitol, Treasury Department.
and Library, and other government build
iugs are the most unique in the world for
their grandeur and beauty
Disarmament is a matter Of impOssi-
bility with Germany continued DR..
Saenger. The army is a popular insti-
tuition in our country, and the young man
is anxious to join the cOlOrs. and IL not UP

the military authorities and rejected for
service, he is. indeed. q very sorry young
man.
There is even more desire on the part
OF our young men to join the navy, and,
unless they are physically absolutely per-
feet, they are not accepted in that branch
of the service. The navy is a particular
pride Of our Emperor who is more popu
lar to-day than he ever was. The army
and navy are great schools for our young
men. They learn 10 be men, learn how
TO obey and command.
mot only is the army and navy a
| school, but these agencies Of war are
promoters OF industry and science. II is
/ a very serious question whether the
, quality Of steel to-day would be as fine
as 1t is for all purposes If the war Of
fees had not given this industry their at
tention. The same holds good with wire
. less telegraph, airships, surgery, and
!, many other absolutely necessary objects.
SO far as 1 know, the sentiment Of the
! German nation, we viii never consent to
even partial disarmament Furthermore.
Germany is surrounded by or is between

! her best friends"
0 Discussing the accidents to the Yep

withstanding the many misfertunes they
had encountered. they are the most DTac-
ticable OF all airships in use. and that

: he Is similar in temperament 10 ou'

In which he attacked England's Egyptian
policy the other day. IL was thoughtles!
and unnecessary for him to use tbs
abrupt language he did. He was IN,
guest Of the nation and was under some
obligations. England has performed won

that country for having accomplished
