White House Statement.

The following statement was given
out at the White House:
THE president said In reply to the
delegation that In his judgment moth
ing is more dangerous for business
than uncertainty; that IT has become
evident through a long series of years
that a policy such as the Democratic
party is pursuing is absolutely neces-
sary to satisfy the conscience of the
country and Its perception of the pre-.
vailing conditions of business, and
that 1t Is a great deal better to do
the thing moderately and soberly now
than TO wait until more radical forces
have accumulated.
The president also said that while
he is aware of present depression of
business. there Is abundant evidence
that 1t was merely psychological"

HELD UP HIS TUB

Bathing Apparatus.

This was the message received at
the general passenger Office OF the
Santa Fe this morning when Lord
Persival Chilamondy and his lady. en-
route to Los Angeles. missed their bath
ing apparatus in the hotel where they
were stopping.
All the threadbare Jokes heard on
the stage about the English mobiles
and their fear Of American bathtubs
and their custom of carrying their
''plunges" with them, appeared in real
life in Topeka today. Lord Chilamondy
is carrying his tub-and it weighs 23O
pounds. He is making a trip around
the world-tub and all. He pays an
enormous amount of money for its
charges as excess baggage-but what
bally difference does it make, youah
know?
It seems that the crate bearing this
23O-pound bathroom broke in New
York and the Santa Fe did not receive
the apparatus when the lord and lady
and attendants and baggage trans
ferred at Chicago. Now the English
man is burning up the wires with mes
sages to Topeka pleading for his tub.
Tomorrow night is Saturday night
the Topeka officials are making every
effort to have that porcelain affair with
the Chilamondys before the weekend
event is delayed.
