Besides, there were many competitors behind him who would be sure to pick up Williams, so he might have excused himself on this ground. De Knyff, however, stopped as soon as he saw his helpless rival, picked him up, carried him to the side of the road, where he would be out of danger, and then went to fetch some water. A few minute After an examination he found Wi liams’ wounds were not so dangerous as they appeared at first.

As the head of any firm which | had sold an automobile for the use of | | the Pope or any one else of distinction, | he would have seen to it that the name | of his company was carefully inserted | in every two or three lines of the para-{ | graph announcing the purchase.

Mr. Davis found it ut, terly impossible to proceed further this morning without a new cylinder, and this will not reach this city from the | factory until some time on Tuesday. If possible, a start will be made on Tues- day morning, but it is quite possible that Mr. Davis will be unable to get away before Wednesday morning.

WILL ENTER CABINET S The Retiring Secretary Preparing a Statement in Defense of His Administration. e Spectal Dispatch to The Call. CALL HEADQUARTERS, WEL- LINGTON HOTEL, WASHINGTON, 22 —Formal announcement of ihu Root's appointment as Secretary | of War was made to-day. He notified the President of his acceptance early this morning, and it is expected that he will come on to Washington to confer | | Sutter-street cars from Market-street ferry pass the door. with him about the middle of next week before he starts on his vacation. It is also understood that he will be here to formally relieve Secretary Alger on August 1, though it is probable | that Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn will be left in charge of the War De- partment for a short time to enable Mr. Root to close up his private affairs | before permanently taking hold here. Mr. Root is personally known to most | of the members of the Cabinet, and his appointment is heartily indorsed by all | of them. The President’s personal ac- quaintance with him, however, is Him- ited. He has always had a high regard for his legal ability, however, and con- | siders that he will be an acquisition to | | the Cabinet from a social and political, as well as a legal standpoint. Secretary Alger was one of the first to congratulate Mr. Root upon his ap- pointment. He wrote him terday, urging him to accept the appointment, and wired him this afternoon congratu- lating him and thanking him for doing xpected to make this st day at the \\ Department, as -iklejohn is pected to-night, s understood 1|ut he has decided to remain during the coming week in order to close up a number of impor- | tant matters to which he desires to at- tach his signature before retiring to private life. He is also at work upon a statement in defense of his administra- tion of the War Department, which he purposes giving to the public on the day he becomes a private citizen. Alger is uncertain as to his official plans. I was told by one of hfs close personal friends to-day that it was by | no means certain that he would go into the coming Senatorial contest, and that ve his health and the political situation in Michigan during the coming fall. Senator Burroughs of Michigan said to-day: “I regret exceedingly the re-| tirement of General Alger from the Cabinet. I know of nothing in con- nection with his administration of the| War Department which would reflect upon General Alger’s integrity or pa- triotism. I think he has given to its administration his best thoughts and has conscientiously discharged his duties. It must be, therefore, that he retired for some personal reason of which the public has no right to in- quire.’ Senator Burroughs spoke quite as en- thusiastically of Mr. Root’s appoint- ment as he did regretfully of Mr. Al- ger's retirement. “Mr. Root is a splen- constitutional .lawyer,” he said, “and that is just the kind of a man that the War Department needs at the present time. We are nearing a point | hen it will be necessary to establish | to | civil governments in the colonies take the place of the military. The w('hm\ge will involve many Intricate | legal questions of a constitutional and | | international character, and no one who has not a well-trained legal mind can expect to successfully manage the War Department during this period. I know Mr. Root personally, and consider him in every way thoroughly equipped for the important task which will now | devolve upon him. -1/ ROOT'S CAREER AS AN ATTORNEY NEW YORK, July 22.—Elihu Root is one of the most successful corporation |1awyers in New York.

The securities finally passed nto the hands of the Metropolitan Traction Company, of which Mr. Root is chief counsel. Among the noteworthy cases in which Mr. Root has appeared was that ‘.Allaer& the whisky trust in 1892, when | an attempt was made in Massachusetts to have it declared illegal. appeared in defense of the trust.

Mr. Root was mentioned prominently for Embassador to Great Britain when ‘Jnseph H. Choate was chosen. Mr. Root has never had anything to do with mili- | tary affairs. He is reserved and digni- | fied in his manner, and is an eloquent | and convincing speaker. | DELEGATES ADOPT THE ARBITRATION SCHEME | Ingersoll, who | | | | | tional Peace Congress Con- cludes Its Labors. THE HAGUE, July 22.—The third com- mittee of the International Peace Con- | ference held a session to-day under the | presidency of Leon Bourgeois of the | French delegation and adopted article § | as modified. ~ The article now reads: “In | international disputes involving neither | country's honor nor essential interests, | arising from a divergence of opinion on | points of fact, the signatory powers deem t advisable that parties which are unable to agree by diplomatic means shall insti- tute, so far as circumstances will permit, Mr. Root | and its counsel have given Mr. | The Third Committee of the Interna- | an official inquiry, whose duty {t slmll be | | to facilitate the solution of these disputes | by clearing up the questions of fact by means of an impartial, conscientious ex- amination.” After adopting second reading of the five articles dealing with commissions of inquiry. the commit- | tee adopted, with slight verbal modifica- | tions, articles 36 to 56 of the arbitration sche and then adopted the scheme as a whole, bringing the labors of the com- | mittee to a successful conclusion.

The committee will meet formally on proceedings, and afterward a meeting of the conference will be held for the final acceptance of the arbitration scheme. The entire proceedings are expected to be brought to an end by the latter part of next week. The technical delegates are already leaving. -— Drowned in Chino Valley. ASH FORK, Ariz., July 22—Mrs. B.

SAN JOSE, July 22.—There is a possi- billty that criminal proceedings will be commenced against the Board of Di- rectors that was in charge of the Union Savings Bank when it failed. For some time depositors have not been pleased with the way the settlement has been turning out. Although the old officials assured them they would receive dollar for dollar, it is said the depositors will not get over 40 cents on | the dollar. At a largely attended meeting of de. positors to-day a resolution was intro- duced authorizing the chairman to ap- point a committee of five to investigate the advisability of commencing pro- ceedings against certain members the old board of officials. The resol tion carried unanimously, but there was a hitch in the selecting of the commit- tee. This committee will be named at a meeting to be held next Saturday. The report of the expert on the bank's books showed there was negligence for vears in the institution’s bookkeeping The report virtually states that the system of keeping books was so mixed that the expert was unable to tel) whether there had been any crooked- ness on the part of officials or not. It is said the depositors propose to inves- tigate and they declare if there Is any wrong-doing the guilty ones will be punished. The management committee of the depositors consists of H; A.
