new SYSTEM GOING
At COMMERCIAL CLUB

Members and Wis tors entering the
Commercial club quarters these days
quickly become aware of the fact that
a change of some sort has taken
place. The cheerful race or Deacon
Ad Nyc is no longer to be seen, but
instead Jack Keefe new paid secre-
tary, is the presiding genius of the es-
tablishment and he mas a japanese
boy, Morrie, who acts as janitor, por-
ter and general handy man about the
place Attired in a white coat. NIorrie
sells cigars To the members. brings
them cards when they wish to play
gets the billiard tables ready for
them and makes himself generally
useful.
Under the new regime Secretary
Keefe will have all his time to devote
TO the membership campaign for the
club, conducting correspondence, pub
/ city work and to serving with the
committees or single handed in work
for the promotion of the material
interests of the city.
Under the ARRANGEMENTS now in
force the Japanese boy will do the
iauitor work of the club rooms IN the
mornings and will be at the rooms in
the afternoon and evenings to attend
to the wants of the members. Sec
Rotary Jack Keefe is at the rooms
throughout the day save when he ls
busy about the city on work connect
ed with the club but which takes him
away from the rooms.
Though many of the old members
of the club are not yet familiar with
| the new system in vogue. President
| Smythe is of the belief that when they
become accustomed to the change
they will like it better than the old
and will see the benefit OF leaving
the secretary free to do the import
ant work of the club without being
hompered by caring for the club
rooms.

CARDINAL GIBBONS
HONORED BY MANY
NATIONS LEADING MEN
ATTEND CELEBRATION
President Taft, Colonel Roosevelt
Vice President sherman and Car
dinal Speak-Fifth Regiment Ar
mOFy in Baltimore Crowded

Baltimore, Md, June cardinal
Gibbons missed his afternoon walk
yesterday for TIE first time in years,
one Of the very few in the 25 years
he has been the only prince of the
Catholic church in the United States,
he missed that afternoon stroll over
the streets of Baltimore where he lis
tened to banker and beggar, and took
to heart the troubles OF "hs people"
Instead Of the walk that had be-
come a feature Of that part of the
city in which he lived, the cardinal
sat Yesterday afternoon on the tenn
porary stage in the fifth regiment
armory and listened to the great men
of the nation speak in eulogy of his
life. President Taft, Vice President
sherman Chief Justice White. former
President Roosevelt, Ambassador
Bryce of Great Britain, Speaker Clark.
Senator Root of New York, Governor
Cr"thers of Maryland; former Speak
er Cannon and Mayor Presly of Bal
timore, sat with the cardinal and all
of them except the chief justice spoke
in his praise.
Among the 600 guests seated on
the platform behind the president
and the cardinal, We're more than a
score of senators and members of the
house of representatives. Probably
a more distinguished gathering was
never held in this country outside of
Washington, and the wheels of gov
ernment came pretty near to a stop
while those who sat in charge over
them paid honor to the cardinal. The
armory holds $1,000 people. its build
ers say, and it was crowded to the
doors.
The cardinal sat in a red plush
chairAin the center of the stage. To
his right was President Taft, then
came former President Roosevelt and
Chief Justice White. On the cardi-
nails left We're Governor Crothers of
Maryland, Ambassador Bryce, Speak
er Clark and Representative Cannon.
The ovation that greeted Mr.. Roose-
welt as he came up the steps with
Chief Justice White was remarkable.
nut that Whlch greeted the cardinal
as he climbed the stairs with Presi-
dent Taft was far more remarkable.
The cardinal wore the red robe, the
skull cap of red and the deep green
ring of office. Through all the
speeches. he sat smiling, every chang
ing expression Of his wrinklcd and
kindly face ana his bright eyes at
testing to the pleasure this tribute af-
forded him.
He smiled like a boy when Presi-
dent Taft introduced him to Mr..
Roosevelt, he laughed with glee when
the chief justice shook his hand, and
the ghost of grn Pickering over his
face when Speaker Clark. mixing po-
litics with religion, said he had been
a potent force for good among both
Catholics aud republicans"

CONGRESS WILL NOT PASS
BILL To REDUCE WOOL TARIFF

The letter to Secretary Smythe fol-
lows:
90 have gone over the situation in
Washington very carefully and feel
safe IN assuring your woolgrowers
that there will be no legislation af-
fecting the wool tariff passed at the
present session of congress. The bill
introduced by the democrats is look
ed upon as 4 joke for it represents no
/ theory If political ecouomics-as it
affords neither free trade. revenue or
protection.
The bill should not affect the
wool market. for it will never become
n law. Please advise your growers
not to sacrifice their clips, for there
is reason to believe that better prices
! will be received later in the season.

ROOSEVELT DENIES
BALTIMORE STORY
IS NOT PLEDGED TO
SUPPORT TAFT IN 1912
IL is Said That lie Did Not Talk
Politics in Any Form at Cardinal
Gibbons CeIebration-WiH Support
Republican Nominee.

Washington, June Col Roose-
welt today telegraphed flat denial
OF the story that he had pledged to
support Taft in 1912.
Washington, June Tt IS positive
Is stated on the highest authority to-
day that Col. Roosevelt did not
pledge his support 10 President Tart
for denomination at Baltimore as
published II is said that he did not
talk politics in any form. It was Of
ficially denied that Secretary Meyer
brought assurances that Roosevelt
would back Taft at the next national
convention. 1t is understood that
Roosevelt will support the republican
nominee, however.
News Rcceivrd BY Taft.
Washington, June President
in his candidacy for the presidential
nomination in 1912 will receive the
unqualified endorsement of former
President Theodore Roosevelt. which
will be uttered just as cordially as it
was prior to the campaign of 1908.
This is the best political news Mr.
Taft has received in many months,
and it comes to him in a manner
that leaves no doubt as to its authen-
ticity.
The information that Colonel Roose-
welt, under no Circumstances, will al
low his name to be presented to the
republican national convention, was
conveyed to the white house several
days ago, but it did not become
known until last night. That Colonel
Roosevelt feels the Taft administrae
tion should be continued, was brought
out partly as the result of the cordial
greeting between the two men at Car
dinal Gibbons Jubilee in Baltimore.
Whether the Roosevelt approval of
Mr. Tafts candidacy will go far
enough to take the former president
into the campaign as an active stump
speaker is prohlematical, but that
the force of his personality would be
with the president is assured This
fact IS not expected TO prove pleasing
to republicans who have made no Sc
cret of their desire to bring Colonel
Roosevelt forward as a formidable ri
val for the 1912 nomination Many
Of these republicans no doubt will re-
fuse to abandon hope until Colonel
Roosevelt himself is quoted, announc-
ing his position and thus breaking
the silence concerning the adminis-
tration which he has maintained
since landing in New York from his
African hunt.
The information that Colonel Roos-
evelt Will be found aligned with the
president rather than against him,
was brought directly to Mr.. Taft from
Mr. Roosevelt by a mutual friend high
in official life, who was connected
with both the Roosevelt and Taft ad-
min'strations in capacity that en-
abled him to gain and retain the con-
fidenco, in fact the warm personal
friendship of both,
The meeting at Baltimore between
the president and Mr.. Roosevelt was
only incidental to the celebration OF
Cardinal Gibbons jubilee, but it
awakened the political interest OF SEN
ators, congressman and others in Of
ficial life who saw the two men to-
gether,
