The policy which resulted in creating the com- | merce of the Pacific slope was subsidizing { lines of communjcation with the Pacific | slope.

No busi- ness man objects to government aid to the commerce of our navigable rivers and no litical party objects’ to large expendi- ures on non-navigabla streams. Improve- ments to rivers and harbors is subsidy to the commerce of rivers and harbors. If | we ever secure the trade of the countries {to which I have réferred, we will first se- cure regular lings of communication with these countries, and if we ever secure.these | ines assistance must be afforded. Who of {jou. owning & steamship, would divert it | from participation in transatlantic com- | merce where there is much to be done, and send it on regular trips to countries where we have Jittls or no commerce? 0 not misunderstand me. I am not mourning the dsteat of any ship subsidy bill, but I shall mourn excoedingly the defeat of a bill, §f any sueh shall ever be introduced. which, if ‘enacted, would in- sure regular lines of American ships, .fiving the American flag, and carrying Amerlean merchonte and commercial {raveiers, with their wares and merchandise, the product of American labor, into those countries to which 1 have referred. Such a bill must offer specia] advantages to ships plying be- tween our ports and countries where our trade is undeveloped.

ME 1S ARMED WITH A .. REVOLVER Man Resides Oyster Bay, Family ai Be Demented. OYSTER BAY, Sept name as Henry Wellbrenner was arrested at Sagamore Hill late last n.ght while mak- ing a persistent demand to see President Roosevelt. The man was armed with a revolver fully loaded. He was taken to the village and placed in the town prison. Shortly after 10 o'clock last night Well- brenner drove to Sagamore Hill in a phaeton buggy. He was stopped by the secrét service operative on duty. Well- brenner said he had 4 personal engage- ment with the president and desired to see him. As it was long after the hours when viejtors are received the officer. declined to permit Kim to go to the house. The man Insisted, but the officer turned him away. Soon after Wellbrenner returned and again fhsisted that he be allowed to see the president if only for a nihute. This time he was ordered away and warned not to return. Insists Upon Seeing FPresident. Just Isefore 11.0'clock the man returned a third time and demanded gf the officer that he should be permittéd to see the president at once. The officer's response was to take the man from his buggy and put him in the stables, where he was placed under the guard of two stable revolver was found in the bugsy. Later Wellbrenner was brought to the jall and locked up. He is five feet six irches high, has a medium siaed dark mous- tache, black eyes and evidently is of Ger- man descent. He resides at Syosset, about five miles inland from Oyster Bay. He was well dressed in a suit of dark material and wore an old-fashioned derby hat. It Is thought by the officers that Wellbrenner was accompanied by two other men, as thelr footprints were found alongside of the buggy trac! in the mud the village for assistance Jolned by two other secret service men. 1a a Dangerous Lunatic. Whils Weilbrenner talked rationally the officers last night it seems evident from his conversation today that he is deménted. He sald that he had received a telephontc communication from the president directing him to call at Sagamore Hill. His buggy was taken to a local livery barn. When asked what bad become of the rig, Well- brenner replied: “Oh, the president has taken care of it; that's all right.” Wellbrenner is regarded by those who have seen him to be a dangerous lunatic. At _Byosset it is learned that the man is the son of « truck farmer and is one of three brothers. He has two sisters. The family is respectable and is held in general esteem. Suffers. a Nervous Attack, Wellbrennet several years ago had a nervous at.ack which rendered him men- tally helpless for a day or two, but his fam- ily supposed that he had been quite re- stored by medical treatment he received at that time. Since then he had manifested no symptoms of mental aberration. He had no soclalist or anarchistic-tendencles #o far as known, never having been interested in any question’ of the kind. He was employed ‘dafly on his father's farm. « ‘ Waltbrennar was arrafgned today before Justice Frankiin on, complaint.of the secref service operatives who placed him under arrest. Weilbrenner's brother, Williafh, was present at the examination. Justice Questions Prisoner. Justice Franklin questioned the' prisoner About his movements last night. His re- plies weré made In a quiet tone of voice, but they indicated apparently beyond a doubt that the man Is crazy. Asked why he went to Sagamore Hill, he replied: “I went to see the president about his daughter, Alice," “Had you an engagement with the presi- dent?” \ “How was that engagement made? “I talked with the president last night,” replied Wellbrenner. “How du you talk with him?" “Oh, I just talked.” “A sort of wireless talk, was 17" “Yes, that is it; a wireless talk.' Wants to Marry President’s Da “Why did you want to see the nmql about Miss Alice?" “I wanted to marry her.' 1d you ever see Miss Roosevelt “Yes, I saw her night before la: “Where ald you see her?" "At my house.” “Did she go over there?" es, she came in & red automobije.” “Who accompanied her?"’ “Her brother, Theodore. Justice Franklin after the examination concluded he would hold Vrellbrenner un- til an Inquiry of lunacy could be held upon his case. The examination then was postponed until § o'clock this afternoon when physiclans who hold certificates en- ttling them Yo make inquiries into the sanity of persons ¢ould be present. The examination of Wellbrenner was con- tinued this afterncon. Dr. G. A. Stewart and Dr. Covings Barnes conducted the ex- amination. Wellbrenner was declared by them to be insane. He will be placed in the custody of Sheriff Johnson of Nassau eounty. ‘Wellbrenner was taken to Mineola, L. I, on An evening train and placed in the cuj tody of the county authorities. President Roosevelt had as guests at Juncheon today Senator Beveridge of In- dlana and one of the latter's constiuents, a Mr. Pittit, and Dr. J. H. Finley, who soon 18 to be installed as president of the College of the City of New York. * Benator Beveridge came to see the presi- dent about some federal appointments In Indiana and” to’ talk with him about the work of the approaching sesslon of con- gress. Dr, Finley's call wi soclal. Later the president received I. N. Stev- ens, & newspaper man of Pueblo, Colo., and Frank Mead, both of whom d sired to discuss with him some western matters. Mr. Mead's misslon related par- ticularly to some Indian affairs. A Among other callers upon the president this afternoon were former Representative Jullus Kihn of San Franctsco, who came to present the president a handsome copy of the address which he delivered in California on his western trip last spring, and Major Liewellyn of New Mexico, wh was an officer in the President's Rough Riders. President and Mrs. Roosevelt today at- tended the funeral of Edwin C. Swan, the widely-known Long island philanthropist. The services were held in Christ Episcopal church and were largely attended.

Hdson, Mrs. Pullen and Dr. David Rdson, a brother of Edson, met in Bdson's home. During the conversation in the dining room Edson Is said to have turned to Mrs. Pulien and ruggested that she leave her home with him and.go to some other state, where they could be happy. Mrs, KEdson was horrified. Mrs, Pullen turned away in dis- gust. Dr. Edsor,”after sharply rebuking his brother, left the room with Mrs, Ed- son, but both returned in a few minutes, when Edeon again turned to Mrs, Pullen and began to ‘entreat her to elope with him. Mrs, Pullen was horrified at suggestion, After further - talk HEdson pulled a revolver from his pocket and pointing it at Mrs. Pullen shouted: ‘“You | must go with ‘me. “If you don't elope with {me I'll see that you g0 with me anyway." | In terror Mrs’ Pullen started to run from the room. She had gone but a few steps when four pistol shots raig out in quick succession. The first tullet tore Mrs. Pul- len’s left cheek and the second entered the right cide of her head. According te Wood, an eye-witness, Edson looked at the woman for a moment and then turned the muzzle of the revolver to his own head, firing two shots almost simultancously. Both entered about the middle of the fore- head and he fell, his head striking and resting on the feet of Mrs. Pullen's body. Mr. Pullen, the husband of the mur- dered woman, Who is a vestryman of St. Michael's church, made a statement to- night in which he branded Edson as a de- faulter and forger and sald he had stolen the funds of 8t.
