The President Gots to Attend the Firemen’s Convention at Chattanooga. (By the Associated Press.) Washington, D. C., Sept. 6—Smilingly bowing in acknowledgement of the en thusiastic and prolonged cheering of’ an assemblage that fairly crowded the Bal timore and £)hio station here, President Roosevelt tonight began his Southern tour with Chattanooga, Tenn., as the ob jective point. The President was in the city exactly one hour and a half. He arrived over the Pennsylcania Railroad at 6:12 o’clock this evening on a special train of two cars made up at Philadelphia this after noon during the brief stop here en route from Oyster Bay. Secretary of the In terior Hitchcock, Chief Wilkie, of the Secret Service, Assistant Secretary to the President Barnes, and a number of other officials and White House attaches met him at the station. The President appeared a little dis figured as a result of the Pittsfield ac cident, hut apparently had quite recov ered from the shock. He stopped to shake hands with those who pressed about him to congratulate him on his escape. “Poor Craig,” he repeated in expressing his thanks to his well-wish ers. Through a cordon of police the Presi dent was escorted to carriages in waiting, and was quickly driven to the Baltimore and Ohio station. Secretary Hitchcock, Commander Cowles, the President’s brother-in-law, and Secretary Cortelyou rode in the carriage with him. The special train of seven handsome ly equipped coaches was in readiness and the President immediately entered his car, merely lifting his hat in re sponse to the greeting from the crowd. He spent most of the time before his departure in conversation with Civil Service Commissioner Garfield, and with others who entered the car to meet him. To a number he described the accident at Pittsfield. He said it was not the first time he had so providential an es cape and referred to an incident in the battle of San Juan when gunshots struck down two men close beside him. The President told the Pittsfield story to the group in the car with feeling and emphasized it with gestures. He said he felt in normal condition again. The train was just two minutes late *>, when it pulled out of the Baltimore and ' Ohio station at 7:32. It was in charge of Pullman Conductor W. M. Johnson, who has been assigned to the Presidential specials for a long time past. The per sonnel of the President’s party is the same as that on his New England trip, except for the addition of S. B.

In a statement issued by the White House today it was announced that the local committees of the four cities, at which ‘-tops ar~ scheduled on the South ern trip, will bo received at the places they represent, the limited accommoda tions of the trains rendering it impracti cable to take them on board in advance.

Sept. 4.—The Census Bu reau today issued a statement showing the increasing age of the population from decade to decade. The statement gives the results of computing the me dian instead of the average age. The median is an ago that half the population is under it and half is over it. The median age of the total popula tion in 1900 was 22.8 as compared with 21.9 in 1890. The median age of the white population in the last census year was 23.4 and the colored, including negroes, Indians and Mongolians were 19.7, while in IS9O the white population Avas 22.4 and the colored 18.3. The report shows there was an increase in the median age of the white population during each decade of 1810 to 1890 amounting in the 90 years to 7.4 years or an average amount of about five-sixths of a voar in a decade. The mediam age of the colored population increased after 1830, but with less regularity. The me dian age of the colored population in creases in the three years in seventy year period from 1830 to 1000. or only about half as fast as that of the white. But during the last twenty years of the century the increases for the two groups has been substantially the sam«, 1.9 year v s for the colored and 2.1 years for the white. The statement concludes as follows: “Many complex influences have co operated in producing as a resultant this steady change in the age composition of the population. There may be mentioned, the rapid progress of medical and sani tary science which has tended to in crease the average length of lifo, the decrease in the relative number of chil dren born, which as made in the earlier age periods less preponderant numerically in the total population, and the influx especially since 1840 of great numbers of adult immigrants, increasing the num ber in the older age periods. The dif ference between the white and colored populations is doubtless due to the fact that these influences have wrought more powerful upon the white race than upon the colored.” I xv JrT'IVE CENTS.

Taylor Ellysou, of Virginia, and J. M. Hickey, of Wash ington. The meeting of the board was far the purpose of outlining a defense that will be made against the suit of General Jno. C. Underwood, Superintendent and Sec retary of the Association, who has brought an action to recover the sum of $17,000 alleged by him to be due for com mission and salary. In this claim he includes commission on the hundred thousand dollar donation of the late Charles Broadway Rouss toward the* construction of the baMle abbey upon the condition that a similar sum should be raised by the association.

As the matter is a question oi law the board declines to give out for publication what will be its line of de fense. In an interview with your correspond ent this evening, J. Tayior Ellyson, a member of the board, said it would be doubtless gratifying to the friends ot the association to know that not a dollar of the money given for the permanent fund has been used, and that all the funds for the construction of the bat tle abbey and its endowment have been sacredly preserved, and that there is to the credit of Hon. George L. Christian at Richmond, treasurer of the associa tion, more than one hundred thousand dollars- " > ... (By the Associated Pres 3.) Charlotte, N.
