New York, May 2f. ? Two men
rushed Into the hsllway of the apart

ran Into a room .on the first floor,
where Miss Margaret Rosenthal, aged
16, No.^245 Manhattan avenue, the
telephone operator, was sitting at the
switchboard. >*?
When they saw Miss Rosenthal the
men started to back out, and she de
manded what they wanted. One, she
does not know which, struck her on
the ja% with his fiat and she fell un
conscious. ? (
As Miss Rosenthal recovered two
more men ran In and asked if she had
seen the flrat two. describing them.
She told her experience and the two
said tkie others probably had gone to
the roof and they would follow. De
spite Miss Rosenthal's protests they
ran through the haUway.
Miss Rosenthal -would not let the
Intruders get away. She had a wea

ed to the mea to come down, 'telling
them what ahe would do to them with
the curling Iron, If they did not, but
the men kept at work. Then Miss
Rosenthal called for help, but no one
heard her. The other pair had dis
appeared.
The station of the elevated rail

whistle. Patrolman White responded.
He found Miss Rosenthal a; the foot

Not Going to New York to Welcome
Roosevelt.
Washington. May 26 ? It ipsa defi
nitely announced' tpday that Presi
dent Taft will not be in New York to
take part in the Roosevelt home-com
ing celebration. It is said that the
dignity pI the offlco ?
the United States Is greater than the
personal desire of the man who holds
the office may be to take part in a
public celebration welcoming an old
friend.
Colonel Roosevelt and President
Taft. however, it is said, will meet
shortly after the colonel's arrival.
The former will most likely come to
Washington, although It la probable
that the meeting will take place CJun*
24, in New York City, when the pres
ident and the ex-president will at
tend the meeting of the national
league of republican clubs. |

Washington. May JIT:? President
Taft's traveling expense* and the fact
that already he had overdrawn hit al

Congress, led to acrlnonipus debate
in the house today and a ' refusal to

As reported from the House com
mittee on a'pproprlationa the Item or
$25,000 for the fiscal year begin

"Immediately nvallable'* except for
the protests of Democratic members.
The words "Immediately available"
were- afy iekeRnL Lh?
tlon of Mr. Mann, of IlltatU. the oc
cupant of the chair, In sustaining a
point of order made by Mr. Macon,
of Arkansas, a Democrat.
It was the Western and Southern
trip made by Mr. Taft last fall that
exhausted the white house traveling
fund. During the debate Chairman
Tawney, In charge of the b|Jl. criti
cised Southern Democrats for their
attitude In objecting to an appropri
ation to defray the etp?nsc of a trip
on which they, had been the presi
dent's guests. .
Representative Hard wick. of Geor
gia. drew from Mr. Taivfaey the ad
m lesion that Secretary Cdk*penter had
furnished him with a in I >f names"t>f
Democrats who had aediijjEed the pres
ident's hospitality. tjf connection
with the use of the navies of such
Democrats Mr. Barttett,'-pf Georgia,
charged that "the prsaiijfnt has vio
lated both the rules of kflp|pitallty and
of decent condnct." <v
The president. Mr. Tawney. aald.
had made his trip thrwugh the West

"This trlR." aald Mr. .Tawney, "was
not made fof his own pleasure. Con
gress was In session wfien delgatlon
after delegation from the house, from
the senate and from the different
States visited him, urging him to
make this trip."
At that time, aald Mr.' ..Tawney,
there, was no appropriation to meet
the traveling expenses.
"The president Informed the chair
man of the committee on appropria
tions," explained Mr. Tawnfey. "that
personally he would rather remain at
his summer home after adjournment
than to make the trip and that the
only way he would be able to make
the trip would be through Congress:
giving him an appropriation, .which
we failed to make at the close of the
sixtieth congress. ' Now after the j
preeldent had accepted the Invitation
of members of this house and visited
their 8tatee. afCer Senators and Gov- >

This statement served as a fire

Big Decline
in Grain;
Pattens Lose
Chicago. May 27.? T!le private set
tlement of Theodofe H. Waterman's
"squoese" In May wheat today caused
a remarkable decline in prices.
The unloading of. eight million
bushels of September wheat by James
A. and Qetuge W. pattgn and mi? an
nouncement of their withdraws I from
brokerage firm of which tkey
have been members for a generation
and also their retirement, at least
temporarily, from business. came co
incidentally. Their retirement is ef
fective July l.
The net decline in prices ranged
from { 1-2 cents In September to
more than 5 cents in May wheat.
Altogether the day in .wheat w$f
one destined to take rank with other
momentous periods of the history of
the Chicago board of trade.
Putten Still Smiling.
James A. Patten left his office to
day wearing a smile. In his automo
bile he had leisure to read head lines
estimating his losses at anywhere be
tween 1640.000 to $1,200,000 for the
day.
Asked if he had anything to say
about the ? market, Ihe speculator]
laughed and said:
"Just say T don't know anything
about the market."
Mr. Patten admitted that he had
eome out second best In a contest
with the bears.
"Not many men could take It like
that" remarked an admiring Junior
partner of the firm. ? I
The staluR of neither the May nor.
the September options, despite to
day's development^ Is understood
with certainty. As to Patten, it Is no't
known whether he and his brother
George have disposed of all of their
September holdings or still have a
considerable amount awaiting a more
steadier rahrket. Tradera are assured
that: Theodore H. Waterman, the Al
bany miller, has carried his deal i
through to n successful conclusion
and forced the leading short Interest i
to settle with him at his own price. I
generally believed to have fceen
around |1.14. Any effort to guage
his profits, however. Is futile.
A. J. Llchstem is said to Have been
the leading short In this option, but
chiefly as agent for a big elevator
concern.
Several cargoes of actual wheat
were delivered to Waterman during
the last ten days In an endeavor to
break the market. The latter bent,
but did not break. That a settlement
had been effected became known to
day when cargo No. l northern wheat
consigned to Chicago for delivery to
Waterman had 1>een diverted to
Bqffalo.
The extreme declines today were
5 7-8 eents in May and 5 cents in Sep-v
tember. The <jlppe, May at 1.05 to
1.05 1-4 and September at 93 cents
was 'rflfhln a small fraction of the
bottom. *

STAT IK TO GKN. CiKKKXK.
Washington. D. C.. May 27. ? To
day being the anniversary 01 the
birth qf Gen Nathaniel Greene, Rep
resentative Thomas, of North Caro- '
Una, called the attention of the I
House 10 a pending bill for the erec- 1
flon of a statue to Greene on the bat-j
tleground of Guilford Courthouse, t
near Greensboro, X. C. * No action
ed. and these must be subject of se
vere criticism.
The direct and ultimate issue re
quiring decision from the committee
was "Is the department of the in
terior In safe hands? Has the con
duct and the associations of Mr. Bal
linger "been such; are his character
and his conceptions such that he ma y
bo safely continued as a trustee of
our vast public domain?"
That Mr. Ballinger does not meet
the required tests, Mr. Brandels
maintained, had been conclusively es
tablished, and If this was true (he de
partment of the interior should be
under other guidance. That he was
subject to far severor criticisms he
firmly believed.
Mr. Brandels continued by giving a
chronological resume of the Alaska
coal land situation and Glavto' con
nection with it. He laid partioular
stress upon the fact that Mr. Ballin
ger,- as commissioner of the genoral
land office, was fully acquainted with
It. He pointed out that the Cun
riatmsntp nrr flncreUrv Ral
linger'a personal and political friends
and that they are powerful and Influ
ential.
"Was It a coincidence." he asked,
"that the investigation by Special
Agent Jones in the summer of 1907
was stopped shortly after Secretary
Ballinger went to Seattle, shortly af
ter the malting of the agreement be
tween the Morgan-Guggenheim syn
dicate and the Cunningham claim
ants?" '
was taken by the House. Mr.
Thomas characterized General Greene
as next to Washington, the most po
tent force in the American struggle
for Independence, and said the statue
would link the people of New Eng
land and the South. The bill already
has passed the 8enate.

The Victor is the greatest musical
instrument the world has ever knowrr..
You can judge of its perfection by tlic fact that Presi
dent Taft, besides making records for the Victor, has ;u
Victor himself. So lias President Diaz qf Mexico, and
His Holiness Pope Pius X.
Ana among the crowned heads of Europe and Asia
who use the. Victor for their royal pleasure may be merf
tioned the King of England, the Emperor of Germany,
the King of Italy, the Quean of Spain, the King of Por
tugal and the Shah of Persia.
With all the money at their command, these rulers
can secure nothing that gives them so much pleasure
as the Victor.
