EDITOR ROOSEVELT
SETTLES DOWN 10 WORK
BEGINS HIS DUTIES ON THE
OUTLOOK.
A Magnificent Workshop Has Been
Prepared.

New York, June 2O-Theodore
Roosevelt began today the life he has
chosen for himself as a private citi-
zen after a single DAY of rest at Saga
more Hill, and took up his work as
a contributing editor of the Outlook.
His sons marriage detained him from
his desk somewhat.
Early this morning he went direct
TO his office and plunged into the
mountain of correspondence that had
accumulated. Two hours later he ap-
peared on the street and was immedi-
ately recognized by the crowds. Be-
fore he had walked half a block west
ward toward Fifth avenue, he was
followed by a throng that blOckaded
the sidewalk. The sun was beating
down with an intensity that made his
top hat uncomfortable. The colonel
plunged for a hatter's at a speed that
made the crowd behind run to keep
up. 1t took the colonel just two min
utes to buy a wide-brimmed straw
hat, with black band. Then he footed
it at the same amazing speed to his
office again.
Editor Roosevelt's business head
quarters hereafter will be on the sew
enth floor of the United Charities
building, at Fourth avenue and
Twenty-secOnd. street, where a suite
of three rooms is especially engaged
for him.
On the entrance to the door appears
the legend in big gilt letters;
"Office of Theodore Roosevelt"
The rooms are magnificently fur

RICHARD GOES TO RENO
Decision Will Be Announc-
ed Today Between Rival
Claims of Goldfield and
Reno-Prospects Strong
ly Favor the Latter
RICHARD GOES TO RENO

San Francisco, June 20.-With the
departure of Rickard for Reno the
question of the location of the cham
pionship battle on July shifted defin-
itely from California to Nevada. When
an interview of Mayor Mccarthy held
yesterday with the governor failed to
produce positive results and the pro-
moters admitted that the last chance
of holding the fight in this state had
gone glimmering and the command
went forth from Rickard for the train
ing camps to pack up their impede
ments for the journey to Nevada.
Both camps obeyed orders and are
now awaiting final instructions from
Rickard, who reached Reno tonight. AS
he expects to hold an immediate con-
ference with respective fight promo
ton committees of Reno and GOldfield,
it is believed the two camps will re-
ceive marching orders early tomorrow
That active preparations are being
made to shift the LangfOrd- kaufman
fight to Nevada was made manifest to-
day when Joe Woodman instructed a
Reno representative to secure training
quarters at Reno for LangfOrd.

HIS NATURAL HEATH.
Rickard Thinks He Was a Fool for
leavinu IL.

Reno, June 20.-On home soil again.
and happy to be there after his
disastrous adventures in California,
Promoter Tex Rickard was given a
rousing welcome by his fellow New
adams, on his arrival in this city late
tonight.
Reno extended wide it's arms to the
man guiding the destinies of the JEFF
fries Johnson fight.
Goldfield, represented by upwards of
a score of prominent business and min
ing men, We'd heroically with its rival
for the battle of the century" in its
long distance reception of the native
son.
Soon after reaching his hotel, Rick
ard went into conference with the
Reno and Goldfield committees to hear
the inducements each will have to Of
fer for the big fight, but no announce
ment of the outcome of the contest for
the match is expected before morning.
According to it's optimistic delega-
tion of boosters, Goldfield's original
bid of $120,000-the guaranteed sale of
5000 tickets at $50 each-has been sup
plemented, it is said, by an offer posi-
lively to safeguard both the promoters
and fighters against any possible loss.
Notwithstanding the Goldfield dele
cations sanguine expectations, all in a
position to hazard a guess on the
termination of the matter, say Reno
has much better chance and is al
most certain to land the prize.
Sid Hester, promoter of the Ketchel-
Langford fight, came up on the train
with Rickard to arrange for staging
the contest for the morning of July 4,
the date of the heavyweight battle
Hester says Rickard interposed no OBJ
lection to the use of the Jeffries-J John
son arena for the proposed middle
weight match, and he does not look
for opposition from any other source.
Tom Flanagan, Johns manager, and
]. NJ. Mclaughlin, the contractor who
will build the Nevada arena, also ac-
companied Rickard to Reno. Sam Ber-
ger, guarding Jeffries' interests, is ex-
pected tomorrow.
In the presence of a dozen or more
newspaper correspondents to whom he
talked enthusiastically of the fight
prospects in his home state, Rickard
said:
IOu II sec lilc WiCn VIC
get to Reno. No more knocking now,
only boosting and everybody glad to
see Nevada get the match. I was a
fool to ever think of taking the big
match to the coast. Never again!"
Rickard estimates his actual loss in
shifting the fight to Nevada at $25,000
and his prospective loss at over a
quarter of a million dollars.

Mr.. Hepburn said he would agree to
separation of the two measures on
the understanding that not less than
S20.000,00O should be voted at this
session to continue irrigation work

found it impossible to get through the
house a larger bond issue than S2O.-
600, 900. the senator's interested had
consented to accept that sum, pro-
viding the house would put an inde-
pendent bill for that amount. The
bill. as amended, was then passed.

sentative Hamer of Idaho and other
western senators and representatives
today regarding conservation legisla-
tiOn and the proposed issue of certi-
ficates for carrying forward the er-
claamtiOn work in the arid regions
The bill authorizing the executive
withdrawal of power sites is also as
suming satisfactory shape. The pre-
sident declared that the senate bill
met his views every way.
In response to the suggestion of
cOnservationists that the bill might
not he held 10 validate specifically the
Withdrawals already made. the presi-
dent said that he would see to their
valuation highly quick"
The amendment of the bill so as
to exclude mineral entries on lands
withdrawn by executive order meets
the presidents approval.
The president also promised Rep
resentative Hamer to do what he
could to help the dry farming bill, af-
fecting many semi-arid regions where
winter rains and SHOWS make il pos
sible to raise crops of wheat but
where the elevation of the land is
such as to preclude irrigation.

THE WARM WEATHER

In the Trial of Lee O'NeiI Browne for
Bribery.

Chicago, June 20-Fighting each
step of the way and taxing their in
genuity to discredit Representative
Charles A. White, witness against Lee
O'Neil Browne, in the eyes of the jury,
the lawyers for the defense placed
nearly thirty character witnesses on
the stand today in the trial of the
legislative minority leader, charged
with bribery in connection with the
election of Senator William Lorimer.
The strain and heat of the day in
Judge McSurely's court room told on
counsel on both sides. Clashes were
frequent and three times during the
afternoon the spectators were brought
to their feet by dramatic incidents,
in which the judge, the lawyers and
the witnesses took part

nesses were from Ottawa, Brownies
home town. Prominent among these
were Rev. Father Thomas H. Heating,
Marengo Leland, president of the
First National bank of Ottawa; Henry
Mayer, postmaster; Alfred Schock,
vice president of the First National
bank, and T. ]. Mertney, a capitalist
AS Father Heating stepped down
from the witness stand he walked in
side the jury railing instead of using
the passage outside the lawyers
tables.
Judge McSurely precipitated a sem
sation by suddenly hurting a question
at Father Keating: Did you talk to
one of the jurors then?"
Yes" replied the priest, L just said

''Well, it was very improper for you

Body of Murdered Man Found at Port
land Union Depot.

Portland, Ore, June 20.-An uniden-
titled body of a young man was found
at the union depot in trunk tonight.
A pool of blood on the floor gave the
clue. 1t is assumed that he had been
murdered and that it was the intention
to ship the body out of the country.
The body was that of a young man
apparently about 80 years of age. The
head was badly battered, indicating
that the victim had first been shot,
choked and then beaten over the head
with a heavy instrument. The hole in
the head looks like that made by a
steel bullet The only marks on the
clothing were the initials wv. A j. on
the undershirt. The underclothing
was of good quality and made by San
Francisco firm. The hands of the vic
time were those of a man who had
done hard work, but not recently.
