(By Leased Wire to The Times) Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 27 A tumul tuous southern greeting was given to President Taft here today. Whistles and bells all over the city joined In the welcome. The president and his party were delayed on the river during the night. owing to the extremely low stage of the water and the numerous sand bars, and did not reach here until nearly 11 o'clock. When the flotilla with the Steamboat Oleander, bearing the president and his party, 300 yarts in advance of the long column, flanked on each side by the torpedo bouts, the people shouted their greet ing. The mayor, James H. Maolc, in welcoming the president, said: "We remember with much pleasure that while;' you were a, United States cir cuit judge you came often to Mem phis and here dispensed justice with so even a hand as to win the confi dence and good will of all whose good fortune it was to appear in your court." Ho said the attitude of Pres ident Taft towards the xouthern states presaged nothing but good for the south during the Taft administra tion. When the mayor turned to the question of 'river improvement and "fourteen feet through the valley", adherents of the plan for a deep wa terway from the lakes to the gulf gathered near and interrupted the speaker with cheers. President Tart had on previous occasions, .declared himself upon the waterways proposition and today he reiterated his opinions. Following the welcoming exercises the president and other members of his party entered automobiles and joined a, parade through the streets of the city. The president and his escort left the main body of the pro fession temporarily to go to the i Young Men's Christian Associations new building, the dedication of which had been postponed for the president to perform. He spoke of the -great work accomplished throughout the country by the association. BUILDING WELCOME ARCH. Work Commenced on Great Arch Which Will Span Front Street.

Fleet of Small Craft is Scouring the lAUantlc Coast Trying to Had1 Boat of Wrecked Steamer The Twenty Men Could Hardly Survive .Weather Even If Boat Rode Seas Alriglit-Had They Stayed ou Ship Would Have Been Saved. St. John, N. B., Oct. 27 In . the hope that somewhere on the vast reaches of the Bay of Funday, or the Atlantic, beyond it, there is a . little cockle shell of a boat filled to the gunwales with suffering men, a fleet of smacks, tugs, and all the oilier small craft of the nortliern coast Is patrolling every mile of wa ter. . As yet there is no sign of the men wno are souent the score or more who put off the steamer Hestia when she was caught on the treach erous shoals off Grand Meuan yester day morning. It is possible that the two boats that went ashore at Pem broke were from the Hestia. 'There Is little hope here that the men will be saved. After all but one of their boats had been smashed against the side of the wrecked steamer, they sul&fedcd in putting out in the swirling curreuts and bat tering seas and braved the ocean in a fierce northeaster rather than face death on the disintegrating wreck of their vessel. That the small boat, overcrowded with the crew and Scotch boys who wore passengers, could live ht the storm is considered almost, impos sible. For a day and a half no trace of the little lifeboat has been found. If it survived the gale and safely passed through the dangers of the shoals ,the tweuty men in it have faced the hardships of exposure in a northern sea at tae beginning of winter, with scanty clothing, little water, and practically no food. Their predicament, at its best, is grave. The story told by the six men res cued at the point of death by life savers from the wreck of the Hestia is the only clew to the safety of the life boat. These men, who clung to the roll ing steamer as she pounded on the shoaj under the assaults of terrific seas, tell how they watched the over loaded craft struggle for its life as it was pitched about, headed for the open sea, propelled by a steady off' . Th ntenjvhp remained o the Hestia because.oiey could not get off, and probably are' alive' how because of that ,saw their comrades in the open boats slowly creep away, their little craft staggering until the ri3 ing seas no longer showed it and the mist dropped and left their fate an enigma. . ' The survivors say there were more than 20 in the boat. The calling of the roll shows 35 missing. The list is Captain Newman; First Mate D. McNair, Second Mate J. JI. Phelan; Boaswain J. Banlgan; Seamen John Smith, Brenne, Murray, Chelson, and McCangles; Apprentice McDonald, a boy; First Engineer G. Munn; Fourth Engineer D. Best; storekeeper W. W. Warnock; a donkeyman and a sea roan, names unknown; six firemen. four trimmers, chief steward, cook, two boy passengers and three cattle men. . The work of the rescuers will be kept up till the last chance, but there Is no hope in the hearts of the sea farers who know the nothern coast and its waters. , . , Woo Takes First Trip h newspaper men, who were trying to obtain an interview with her.

Doctors Are" SUned to ActionCon- servaUon of the Farmers Child Championed at Illinois ' Medical Meeting as All Important to Na tion. .V i ' ,(By Leased Wire to The Times) Chicago, Oct. 27 The value of the baby on the farm as compared with that of the barnyard animal, which was caustically pointed put at- the meeting of the Illinois Medical As sociation by-Dr. Charles Vr., Carter, of Clinton, Ills., promise's to have big results for the farmer's baby. Ho argued that potentially the suckling child of the country is far more than the calf or the colt, "economically as well as sentimentally, a creature of tremendous value." Other members of the association are disposed to add emphasis to a needed change of rel ative regard for the baby, the colt and the calf. ;"l believe it will prove a,, blessing to the child and to society," Dr. Car ter declared, "if we will but appre ciate the fact that the welfare of the country infant rests the life and the strength and the hope of the nation. His championship of the baby was launched unexpectedly in an address on Infant feeding in country prac tice. "FigUting the infant's life battle," Dr. Carter declared, "will assume a different uspect when we bring our selves to a realization of the fact that the country is the xperuiting ground of our national vitality, that i tis tho fountain head whence flows a continuous stream of young men and women to leaven the masses, to infuse our national life with new en ergy, to counteract in pur cities the degenerating Influences of urban en vironment, and to offset the tendency to national demoralization, and dl virilization, resulting from our pol icy o fabsorbing into our population the overflow from the Old Worlds over-crowded and under-nourished peoples. "There Is an element of unrest among those of country birth that impells a considerable proportion to forsake the rural life of their fathers, and enter upon other vocations. We find, therefore, in every trade, busi ness or profession,- in every field of human endeavor, men : and women who are country born; and it is a mattcrjof common knowledge that a large proportion of those who lead in every walk of life, and whose achievements give distinction to our national character were, born outside of the city. "The cityward trend of the coun try youth, sa deplored by our writ ers, is not- waouy a social uiioivi- tune. It appears to be a perfectly natural movement, which we probab ly could not check 1 fwe would, and which almost certainly we should not forestall if we could. If some, on the one hand, have not the stamina to withstand the enervating effects of the city's congestion and the city's tension, the hope of the nation is. nevertheless, in the others, who bring" it to brain as well as brawn and vigor and vitality this constant infusion of new blood, and constant accession of new fprce from rural sources that we must rely upon, in the words of a former president, 'to prevent any possible deterioration of the American stodft ' "It i sfor these reasons, it seems to me, that we may in the catalog of onr country's natural resources place a high value upon the children born upon our farms an din our villages : the children of the country as dis tinguished from the strictly city born-and sUould regard the feeding of the country infant as a work of far greater moment than the mere saving of an Infant life." .,.1, ,,, ,': Another Woman Claims She Married Miielfir United States In 1895, the year tliat the girl says he deserted her.
