TIE BIBLE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Sentiment favorable to tie daily read
Ing Of q chapter 10 the Bible In the pub
lie schools was expressed In the MARI
land House yesterday when Mr.. Wiitis's
bill, with an amendment requiring the
daily reading, was passed to the third
reading file. The House was inaltentiVe
at the time the bill was reported, and
when Mr.. Fox, Of Baltimore county,
rsslIzsd what had been done, he moved
t, reconsider the vote BY which the bill
had reached the third reading file. Mr..
King, chairman Of the committee on
education, opposed the motion to recon
slider, and made az earnest plea for the
reading OF the Bible in the schools. The
motion WAS lost by large majority.
A bill requiring the reading OF the
Bible 10 the public schools Of Allegsny
county Md. was recently defeated In the
House.

STUDENTS ON JUNEKT.
British Party of University Men to Visit
Madison wis., on Tour of
United States.

LIVERPOOL, June 21.-The first
touring party of university men, made
possible by the benefcence of an anony-
nous philanthropist, left today for Can
ada and the United States. The stu
dents, ten in number, come from Cam
bridge, Durham, Edinburgh, London and
other universities. Oxford was the only
British university which has not been
represented in these educational excur-
siOnS.
The itinerary will include all the larg
er cities of Canada as far west as Win
nipeg, near which city the men will de-
vote four days to actual farm work as a
practical way of obtaining an insight
into the conditions of Canadian agricul-
ture. From Winnipeg the party will
cross the border and visit Madison, Wis,
Chicago, Pfttsburg, Washington, Annap-
oils, Philadelphia, New York, New Ha-
ven and Cambridge, Mass.
The travelling project is development
of the Rhodes scholarship idea and after
the plan had been worked out last year
an appeal for funds to defray the ex
penses involved was issued.

ROOSEVELT JR., GROOM.
Wedding of Ex-President's Son and Miss
Alexander Takes Place in
New York.

NEW YORK, June 21.-In the pres
ence of 1900 persons, Theodore Roose-
welt, Jr, son of the recent President of
the United States, and Miss Eleanor
Butler Alexander daughter of Mrs.
Henry Addison Alexander, were married
Monday afternoon at the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian church. One of the biggest
crowds ever attracted to view a bridal
party stood in the glazing heat outside
the church at Fifth avenue and Fifty
eighth street, and a Gordon of 25O police
men, 100 of them mounted, were kept
busy handling the spectators. Many
were attracted there to get a glimpse
of Col. Roosevelt as he arrived to attend
his sons wedding.
Long before the first of the guests for
whom the 1900 invitations had been is
sued entered the church a mob of curious
people gathered about the sidewalk avn
ings. A hundred policemen under In
spector Walsh and Capt. Lanley formed
line to keep them from grabbing hold
of the dresses of the guests to examine
their texture. Conspicuously peeping
around the shoulders of the police were
milliners and dressmakers with note
books.
The 1900 invitations covered the admis-
sion of nearly twice as many guests. Ten
minutes before the ceremony the church
was crowded almost to suffoca ton. Many
Of the Rough Riders were present in uni
form, having been warmly invited by
Col. Roosevelt.

FIND BODY IN TRUNK
PORTLAND, OREGON, HAS CHASTITY
MURDER MYSTERY.
Man Caught with Victims Wife Is Taken
Into Custody, but Denies Com
uniting Crime

PORTLAND, Ore, June 21.-The
blunder of the murderers in wrongly rout-
ing a trunk sent to the Union depot in
this city, was the means late Monday of
disclosing a CHASTITY murder. The victim
is William A johnson, who, with his
wife and 7-year-old son, arrived here
Monday morning, in company with a man
who went by the name of A. G. Powers.
The party registered at a cheap north
end hotel.
Powers, whose real name is J. P.
Webb, and Mrs. Johnson, were arrested
at an uptown lodging house early today.
They were located through the finding of
the little boy, during the absence of
Powers, or Webb, and the woman.
They were apprehended as they were
returning from an automobile trip to
suburban resort Both the man and
woman though badly intoxicated, denied
all knowledge of the crime. Webb de-
clared he saw johnson last at the Union
depot Monday afternoon waiting for a
train to go to Seattle. He asserted
Johnson was intoxicated at the time.
Nothing important was elected from
either.
An ordinary looking trunk was re-
ceived at the depot late in the day and
ordered checked via the Oregon u
Washington railway to North Puyallup,
a station not on that road. Shortly be-
fore 10 o'clock Monday night the trunk
was taken to the platform. There the
mistake was noticeable and it was sent
back to the baggage room. A little later
one of the baggagemen noticed a pool
of blood which had trickled from the
trunk, broke it open and discovered the

ROOSEVELT AT OFFICE
EX-PRESIDENT NOW ASSOCIATE
EDITOR OF THE OUTLOOK.
Immediately Plunges Into Mountain of
Correspondence Upon Taking
Up New Duties.

NEW YORK, June 21.-Theodore
Roosevelt began Monday the life he has
chosen for himself as a private citizen
He has his own ideas of what the coun-
try shall do with it's former presidents
and, after single day of rest at Saga
more hill, took up his work as contrib
uting editor of the Outlook. Not even
the fact that his son was married
detained him from his desk earlier in the
day.
Mr.. Roosevelt went direct to his office
from the dispatch boat and Immediately
plunged into a mountain of correspond
ence.
AS he appeared ON the street the sun
was beating down with an intensity that
made a top hat uncomfortable, and the
colonel plunged for a hatter's. AS he
passed the Office of the company that
will bring out mis- book on his hunting
trip, he spied tall protrait Of himself,
framed in red, white and blue. That's
,Iandy, isn't it?" was his comment.
Editor Roosevelt's business headquar-
tiers hereafter will be on the seventh floor
of the United Charities building at
Fourth avenue and Twenty-second
street, where a suite of three rooms has
been specially engaged for him.
On the entrance door appears this leg
end in big gilt letters: Office of Theo-
dore Roosevelt"
The rooms themselves, althou~, bust
nesslile in appearance, are furnished
with a magnificence unusual for an Of
fee building. The suite comprises room
for Mr.. Roosevelt's secretary, room in
which visitors will wait, and Mr.. Roose-
velts own room.
If it should prove that visitors are
too insistent there is an auxiliary exit by
which Editor Roosevelt may escape
through hidden hall to the street.
OYSTER BAY, n. Y, June 21.-Theo-
d0re Roosevelt today is having the first
day of the absolute seclusion he has de-
clared he must have. His only caller
this morning, H. NJ. Hobson, secretary
of the committee of the Hamilton club
of Chicago, was the bearer of a letter
from ex-Judge John H. Batten of Chi
cago, vice president of the club, asking
Col. Roosevelt2tO receive the Chicagoans
before they returned home tomorrow
night Mr.. Roosevelt arranged reception
for them tomorrow morning at his edl-
torial offices in New York.
Later in the summer Col. Roosevelt
will 90 to Chicago as the guest of the
Hamilton club, and will make a speech
there. This probably will be the first
speech he will make.
This morning the colonel took his GUS
tomary walk about his estate. So far as
is known he is to remain at Sycamore
Hill all day.

PRESIDENT HOPES
GET a SETBACK
CUMMINS AND LA TOILETTE FILL
BUSTER AGAINST POSTAL
SAVINGS BANKS BILL.
WILL DELAY FINAL ACTION.
Leaders in Upper House, However, Feel
Certain of Success Before Ses-
sion Closes.
COUNTRY BANKERS ARE ANXIOUS.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 21.-
President Taft's expectation that the Re
publican party in Congress would end in
a love feast was rudely disturbed Mon
day by a flibuster which developed
against the postal savings bill.
Although this measure is decidedly dis
tasteful to the Senate leaders, they had
determined to accept it in the form
passed by the House, preferring it to
that adopted by the Senate. In view Of
the fact that most of the insurgents in
the House had voted for the measure,
it was not believed the members Of this
j faction in the Senate would indicate the
existence of any difference in their own
ranks by Withholding their approval.
This, however, is exactly what they
did Monday.
Cummins and La Toilette Rebel
, Senator Cummns, Senator La Toilette
land other insurgents, Joined by southern
democrats began q series of speeches
Insisting upon the adoption of the Sen
ate bill, with it's Objectionable provisions
for the deposit of all postal savings i'll
the banks of communities where made,
upon the acceptance of indemnity bonds
as security for such deposits.
A lobby of the surety companies
worked industriously in Washington in
support of the attitude of the insurgent
senators and Democrats, and country
banks of the middle west also have been
using their influence in the same direc-
ton. AS indemnity bonds have no de-
posts behind them, the amount of Sc
,curity they offer has, of course, no com
'parison with that obtained from govern
;ment bonds. which under the House bill
must be turned over to the government
before deposits will be allowed.
Country Bankers Are Anxious.
The country bankers fear if the entire
amount Of the postal savings be not
transferred to the local banks, they will
be unable to control the interest on loans
in their communities, or will be cim7
PEELED to borrow from other points at
high rates of interest and thus fail to
gain the profit from loans which they
have made in the past.
The President has made it clear that
he will not accept any change whatever
IN the House bill.
He feels as the insurgents in the
House stood by the administration in the
measure passed by the body it is no
more than just that he should stand by
them in return. He advised Senator
Garter, who has charge of the bill in
the Senate, of his attitude in this mat
ter. Garter has determined to let the
insurgents and Democrats talk. Con
gress is to be kept in session until the

WHEATPITIN TURMOIL.
No Rain in Northwest Causes Chicago
Board of Trade Dealers to
Grow Excited.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 21.-Still no
rain in the northwest. This was the
burden of messages from the Dakotas
and Minnesota today and as a result the
wheat pit of the board of trade here
fairly boiled with excitement. Septem-
Der wheat, which closed yesterday at
941ac, showed opening bids today pang-
ing from 80 cents to 97A, the latter
figure being an advance of 2 3-4c.
In the spring wheat country the
weather forecast was not comforting to
farmers.
1t promised light showers in Minneso-
ia and cloudy" for the Dakotas. A
Minneapolis newspaper is quoted as stat
ing that heavy general rains must fall
within two days or growers will begin to
pillow under their crops.
