ROOSEVELT AT BANKERS,
DINNER STARTS GOSSIP

NEW YORK. Dec. 2O.-Political
circles are buzzing with reports OF a
dinner at the home of Ebert H.
Gary chairman of the board Of the
United states steel corporation, al
which Colonel Roosevelt was the
guest of honor.
The dinner was Friday night Nu-
merous political and social friends Of
the former president were among
the guests. No one could be found
who would discuss the dinner, bat
there was a wild scramble to deter
mine its significance in view of the
fact that most Of the guests were
republicans and that it followed what
is said TO have been an important
conference between the colonel and
progressive leaders here.
George Perkins. chairman of the
Progressive executive committee, ad-
mitted he was present at the dinner
The obvious conclusion drawn by
political followers is that the dinner
was regarded as a boom affair for
Roosevelt as a presidential nominee
in 1916. No one could be found who
would confirm this.
Judge Gary declined to discuss the
dinner. Colonel Roosevelt was quot
ed as saying it was private and of no
political significance,
Following is a resume Of tho
guests:
President George Baker of the
first National bank; Frank A. Van
derlip. National City bank; August
Belmont; c. \. Coffin, head Of the
General Electric company; George B.
Cortelyou. president or the Consoli-
dated Gas company and formerly

The patient was youth OF is years.
Nothing has seemed simpler than
jaundice and the common impression

The cause OF Jaundice IN which the
spleen is at fault are those which
grow slowly. accompanied with OBJ
scure digestive symptoms and appar-
entity with the failure Of the liver TO
act properly. when il is realized that
the blood from the spleen flows di'
