interviewing the Rraaldant

Robert d. Heinl in Leslie's: Each
year the reading public demands more
knowledge regarding the personal at
titude Of the president Of the United
States on great questions. In every
succeeding administration added pres
sure is brought to bear upon the chief
executive Of the nation to secure his
intimate views. No president has had
to face this demand to higher degree
than Mr.. Wilson. 1t is a fact that
to this day the president may not be
quoted without his personal consent.
A bona flde presidential interview Is q
rare thing. Nevertheless marvellous
progress has been made in securing
the personal views Of the chief exec
utive and his advisers.
When the president is personally
consulted. the interviewer knows by
the time he has finished the discussion
what he may safely print. In fact, the
public often gains by the president not
being quoted; for it allows an abso-
lutely free treatment OF the subject,
without involving personalities, presi-
Dental or otherwise. as q source OF
information. President Wilson was
somewhat overwhelmed by the number
of newspaper correspondents which
greeted HIM in Washington There are
upwards Of two hundred special press
men at the national capital and they
represent almost every principal news
paper in the world Mr.. Wilson ap-
peared to be chary about expressing
his views in their presence A great
change was noticed after he had at
tended his first Gridiron dinner. That
! is an exclusive organization Of about
fifty active correspondents which has
made history by its famous dinners
No guest. however high his station, is
immune from its jibes and good ma
tured stunts. President Wilson wa,
made no exception. He took kindl,
| to the idea and realized from the tact
which was used in printing an account
Of the affair the next day in the news
papers OF the country that the Wash
| ingtOn newspaper men were exception
al. 1t did much to break down c
| natural reserve which he had felt II
| their presence.
The press arrangements at the White
House are most pleasant. Presiden
Wilson personally sees the correspond
| ents twice a week. They gather In hi:
Office and ask him all sorts Of questions
| 1t sometimes seems to be a pitiless
| fire, but the utmost good humor pre-
| walls and a thing which impresses the
observer is the informality of the pro-
ceeding. Mr.. Wilson gives and takes
like any Of his inquisitors. He plays
no favorites among the individual cor
respondents, whether the papers the!
represent are big or small.

after the conviction Of the last MAJ,
charged with a part in the conspiracy.
"How closely he followed McManigal
was shown at the time OF the arrest
of that particular dynamiter. McMani-

you want? You know nothing about

'Why, know where you bought

"You do?" demanded the prisoner
YES"

Of the purchase and the make OF the

senior, athletH. banker and railroad
magnate, William Averill Hartman, son
Of the later E. H. Hartman, at 2i still
has his head.
It's really wonder, though, for not
many young men OF his age. with un-
| limited wealth and lots Of popularity,
| find it possible to remain as modest
and unassuming and we'll balanced as
does young Hartman. Though he has
! money enough to keep him in luxury
the remainder Of his days, even if he
should live longer than Methuselah.
he Is ambitious to take his place as a
man of usefulness in the world and
expects to start in at the bottom.
Young Hartman, Of course, will be
railroad man and endeavor to take
the place left vacant on the death of
his father. He doesn't expect to be-
come a great railroad magnate all al
once, however, though he already is a
director Of the Union Pacific railroad.
He knows it will be necessary to ac-
quaint himself with the entire business
Of railrOading before he can direct a
great road. He was working as a chain
bearer on the Oregon Short Line rail-
IrCad at SOS a month when called east to
the bedside Of his dying father. He
also has been engaged in the operat
ing and transportation divisions of 9TH
er roads dominated by the elder Har-
riman.
This son of the late Edward H. Harri-
man is easily the most prominent mem
Der Of the present senior class at Yale
In point Of wealth and inheritance he
ranks second in interest in America to
Vincent Astor. incidentally, it may
be said that he is very popular among
the young women for some of the
same reasons that make him prominent
at Yale. He is a fine, clean, demo-
cratic sort of a chap, and-has bush
els of money!
During his Yale course young Mr..
Hartman has been an exceedingly busy
man. Beginning with his candidacy
for the freshman crew, he has been
conspicuous in athletics. although he
weighs only 100 pounds. This year
he is head coach Of the Yale crew. He
has had many social duties to attend to
and since he became of age has been a
director not only Of the Union Pacific,
but Of the powerful Hartman National
Bank as well. As manager Of the Har-
riman estate he has also had much
to do.
In his present senior year young
Hartman enjoys" room in Con-
necticut hall, in the oldest and most
rlckety Of the buildings Of the campus.
He and his two roommates, George
Arthur Dixon Jr. and Charles Henry
Marshall Jr., both of New York City,
occupy two rooms, in one Of which
there are three iron bedsteads, and the
other is their study.
Hartman pays SO week for his
share Of the rooms. If visitor were
told that the place was occupied by
Hartman he'd be likely to think the
budding flnancier was doing it on a
bet.

Detective Like a MauIclan

In the Interesting People" depart
ment Of the June American Magazine
appears an account Of Malcolm Nc
Claren, perhaps the most famous
shadow" in the detective business
When Ortie McManigal was arrested
McClaren had "shadowed" him so well
that he knew when and where McMan-
igal bought his shoes and even the plot
Of bad dream his wife had had. Fol-
| lowing is an extract from the article:
Perhaps the most successful as well
as the most famous shadow" in the
business Of detecting criminals is NAL
colin McClaren, formerly one of the
most trusted operatives employed by
William ]. Burns and now chief OF
the detectives for the district attorney
of Los Angeles.
McClaren comes pretty near being
the incarnation of Hugo's Javert. He
is as lean as race horse, sinewy, sober
and tireless, and once he is put on the
trail Of man he never leaves it until
the quarry is finally in leash and headed
for prison.
The Burns system Of shadowing is
perhaps the most successful ever de-
veloped by a detective. A man who
knows the subject to be put under sur
veillance is designated to make the
spot" that is, to point out the object
to the shadow" Neither the subject
nor that 'shadow" have ever seen each
other before. Generally the spotter
drops handkerchief or gives some
other sign as the subject comes in view
and then he retires. leaving the "shad-
ow" to his job, often large one.
McClaren was given the "spot" for
