N 7 ApILPHO Kz:KELER + e — NOTED SCIENTIST WHO HAS VISITED EVERY KNOWN LAND ANI? WHO IS NOW IN SAN FRANCISCO ON HIS FOURTH TRIP AROUND THE WORLD. <+ s R. ADOLPHUS T. KECKELER, one of the most noted scientists of this country, is at the Occi- dental. He is making his fourth tour of the world and sails on Saturday for Japan. The doctor is 65 years of age and pre- sents a most venerable appearance with his snowy white fiowing beard and hair. He is a most magnetic conversationist and can give one moment a vivid de- scription on the moon rising slowly in midsummer on the river Nile and the next minute support the theory that the North American Indians sprang from the Mongolian ra He was a great friend of the scientist Darwin and was associated with him in England in 66-6¢ Dr. Keckeler con- siders Darwin the most painstaking man as a scientist that the world has ever known. In cussing Darwin, Dr.. Keck- eler said yesterday: “Darwin had a wonderful capacity for grasping details and his attention to min- utiae was marvelous. He was frank and genial and a considerate listener. He was free from egotism and would patiently discuss his theories and elucidate dark points with fellow scientists. Mr. Dar- win’s _theories scant support among the sc day, and with but few exceptions he was opposed on every side. I doubt if the world will ever again see a man more particular in his s(}lprltlflc statements than was Mr. Dar- win.

The ques- tions that ordinarily concern us as of prims welght in a tariff matter do not come in here as of primary importance. We cannot choos | what the articles are which Cuba shall ex- | port. Doubtless very many of us would pre- fer, for reasons connected with our own tariff that her inhabifants were engaged In industries from those which they, as a matfer of fact, now follow; just as doubtle: | others of our people would prefer that | market offered by Cuba was ome for other | things than those which she actually demands, the | But we can neither determine the wants nor Cuba.

I am certain that the adoption | of such a measure will be in the interest of | | the productions of our people ag a whole. Above ali, while fully acknowledging the highmindedness and moral sincerity of those of my assoclates with whom on this point I differ, 1 yet feel most strongly that by every consideration of a generous and far-sighted public policy we are bound to | prove to Cuba our friendship with her fin her struggle for the material well being which | must underlie healthy national deveiopment. THE GOSPEL OF HOPE. | You men of Michigan have been mighty in war and mighty in peace. You belong to a country mighty In war and mighty in peace— a country of & great past, whose great present is but an earnest of an even greater future. | The world has never enjoyed more marveious prosperity than that which we\pow enjoy, and this prosperity Is not ephemefal.

In 1898 he made his third visit to Egypt for the purpose of investigating archeo- logical conditions. He intended going to Sitka. Alaska, to take measurements of the Muir glacier, but owing to the cli- matic conditions he has decided to defer the investigation. He made the startling statement yes- terday ‘that in his opinion arts and sciences were first studied in the West and gradually spread East. He says that every day discoveries are being made on the "American continent, especially in Wyoming and Utah, illustrating the fact that learned people iived here many thou- sand years ago. He says another pecu- lar feature is that the potteries that are belng exhumed in Nashville, Tenn., and Wisconsin are very similar to the earth- enware work that is to be found in Egypt. Continuing, he said: “What is puzzling many scientists is the origin of the North American Indian. Are the Indians the beginning of a new race or the end of an old race? This has been the ground for much discussion. In my opinion they are descendants of the Mongolians and in many ways they re- semble them.” Dr. Keckeler is a resident of Cincin- nati, where he has resided for forty vears. He has devoted much of his time to the study of thought, what it is, what its origin was and how it is influenced. At the present time he is engaged in writ- ing a book on “The Tangibllity of Thought.”” In this work he says he will demonstrate and prove some things that will throw an entirely new I i y ght on this fight and overcome, but we feel to the full the pulse of the prosperity which we enjoy.

It was past 7 o'clock when the Presi- dent arrived at the Cadillac after re- viewing the parade, and he immediately began preparing for the evening banquet. He drove to the armory over the less traversed streets and arrived there at 9 o'clock. His appearance was the signal for a great outbursg of enthusiasm. He was given three rousing cheers as, es- corted by Mayor Maybury, he led the Presidential party to.their table on the platform. Seated at the President’s left were Mayor Willlam C. Maybury, Secre- tary Cortelyou, General Urell of' Wash- ington and Colonel F. J. Hocker of this city. On his right were General R. A. Alger, Miss Clara Barton, Governor A. T. Bliss and General H, M. Duffield. Among others at the table were Assist- ant Secretaries Loeb and Barnes and Congressman John B. Corliss. Soon after the party was seated Captain Richmond P. Hobson, U. 8. N., arrived at the arm- ory and took his seat at the President’s table. He was given an enthusiastic re- ception as he ascended the platform and greeted the President. The captain did not arrive in the cltK until this evening and came direct to the armory. ' The Presidentlal party was seated at a long table on a platform at the north end of the armory, at which covers were lald for twenty-two. The table was decorated with asters and red carnations and a number of candel- abra shed a soft light over it. The plat- form was cano?led with maple trees. A large picture of the President hung be- tween two American flags, with a row of electric lights over it. The whole scheme of decorations throughout the armory was green and white.

Y., Sept. 22.—If it were not for some difference over the nomina- tion for Lieutenant Governor and less se- rious ones over the nomination for Secre- tary of State, there would be positive apathy here this morning, the day pre- ceding the State Republican Convention. Many delegates are on the ground. The general opinion was that by the time the nominations are to be made there will be but one candidate for Litutenant Gov- ernor—George R. Sheldon. The party platform, as drawn up for presentation to the committee on platform to-morrow, will have the following recom- mendations on the varlous topics to be considered: The Philippines—The following out of the policy of education, with the adoption of free eleciions and the establishment of a Government which shall correspond to the Government of the States of the Un- ion,“but with the continuation of espion- age and military control until the native forces of civilization are in full and easy control, together with free schools, lib- erty of conscience and religion and of speech. Cuba—A recognition of the obligations of good neighboriiness and exceptional ad- vantages for the sale of their products to this country. The anifiyfThe following out of the pol- icy of protection to American industry so long as the wages paid in foreign coun- tries for the same kind of labor are less than enough to maintain a workingman's family in comfort. Protection to the home markets for home products, on the ground that a revision of the tariff will not destroy the trusts. Trusts—A recognition that while every busihess man and corporation will pursue a financial advantage as far as it can be made to go, the Republican party, while not discouraging such effort, will see that it is not carried to unlawful extremes. It will call attention to the Sherman act, designed to reach features of business combinations unlawful and injurious and it will promise to apply such remedy for actual evils as will not interfere at the ! same time with the business development | National Administration—A thorough and strong indorsement of the national | administration and an indorsement of Theodore Roosevelt, complimenting him on his progressive 'ldeas, his ardent pa- triotism and his lofty integrity. Pope Receives Archbishop Guidi. ROME, Sept. 22.—Archbishop Guidi, the | Apostolic Delegate to the Philippine Isl- | ands, and his secretary, Father O'Con- nor, of the English Church of San Syl- vestro, had_an audience of the Pope this morning.

At 11:45 o'clock Mayor Maybury an- nounced that President Roosevelt would | have to leave. Three parting cheers were | glven for him as he left the platform. The President drove immediately to his special train. REVIEWS BIG PARADE. This afternoon President Roosevelt par- ticipated in and afterward reviewed a military parade which was the greatest | demonstration’ of the sort ever seen in the city, with the exception of the G. A. R. parade during the national encamp- | ment here eleven years ago. Never were such crowds. seen in the streets and never was a man given a greater popular ova- tion in this city than that the President received this afternoon. Escorted by Spanish war veterans, Pres- ident Roosevelt, in an open barouche, | drove over the entirc line of march, | nearly four miles. The streets were roped | off and the street cars and all trafic were | stopped. From the Hotel Cadillac, which | the President left just before 4 o'clock, to the reviewing stand, where he arrived two hours later, the President was given a continuous ~ovation. People were jammed in ten and twenty deep behind | the ropes on the entire line of march. A | great wave of enthusiasm stirred the | shaking, flag-waving multitude and | marked the advance of the President's carriage, rolling on and on along the line of march, to reach a climax at the re- viewing stand. The President stood up in bis carriage, waving his silk hat at arm's length in recognition of the people’s trib- ute. It was nearly 6 o'clock, and dusk was beginning to fall, as he rapidly drove past | the parade from his position in the last | civision to the reviewing stand on Wood- ward avenue, in front of the City Hall. The Presidential party quickly passed into the section which had been reserved for them. Miss Clara Barton and Mrs. Allani V. Capron were among the Presldent’s‘ party on the stand, which also included Governor Bliss, Mayor Maybury, several officers of the Spanish war veterans and about twentv-five others. BRITISH TROOPS IN LINE. The different divisions were formed in company form after the President had driven past, and, when the signal was gliven, the review began. Headed by Gen- cral G. M. Duffield, the chief marshal, and his staff, and Governor Bliss and staft, the soldlers and veterans marched briskly past the reviewing stand for fifty-five minutes. As the twilight grew deeper electric lights were turned on. The first| division was composed exclusively of mil- | itary, ‘the battalion of the Fourteenth | United States Infantry, that is stationed at Fort Wayng; the First Regiment, M. N. G., and the Twenty-First Essex Fu- siliers, from Windsor, Ontario. For the first time a President of the United States reviewed a regiment of British soldiers, the red coats and white helmets of the Canadians being in sharp contrast to the sober blue of the United States troops as they swung past at a smart pace, their splendid band playlng “The British Gren- 2diers.”” They received an especially cor- dial salute from the President, and throughout the afternoon the redcoats were cheered to the echo by the crowds. The second division was composed of uniformed secret societies, the Knights of 8t. John, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fel- Jows, etc. A body of Knights of the Maccabees, mounted and arrayed in an- clent Jewish and Roman costumes, con- stituted the third division. The fourth di- vision was made up of several civil bodies. Then came the veterans of the Civil War, four G. A. R. posts. and they marched sturdily by, saluting their Presi- dent as they passed and being heartily saluted by him in return. The last divi- sion was of Spanish war veterans, a num- ber of them in the khaki uniforms they wore in the war. As Gllbert Wilkes' na- val command Swung past their band struck up “‘Garry Owen,”” a favorite of the President. It was dark when the last body of men had been revieweq and the clock struck seven just as the President entered his carriage to be driven back to the_ Cadillac to prepare for the banquet et 8 o'clock in Light Guard Armory. is estimated that more than 150,000 peo; were jammed in the streets along which the parade passed and thousands more viewed it from windows and housetops. —— Trunks and Valises.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.—The body of Mary Gruner, a dressmaker, 20 years of age, was found in her room in West For- | ty-eighth street this afternoon. The wo- man’s lower lip was badly swollen. The police thought the woman's death re- quired investigation and detectives were assigned to the case. Miss Gruner came to this city about ten days ago from Salt Lake City. In her room were dresses and Jewelry to the value of about $1000. Coroner Jackson, after a superficial ex- amination of the body of Mary Gruner, sald he thought it probable from the posi- tion of her body when found and the con- dition of her mouth and tongue that she had been strangled to death. On the mantel in the woman's room the Coroner found & tray of cigar ashes. There was also found a newspn}:er clipping announc- ing the marriage of Fred T. McGurring ’E\:nd Estelle Crystall at Colorado Springs, olo. A _further search of the woman's effects disclosed a torn store bill, which, on be- ing fitted together, showed that it had been made out to Miss Gruner by Roy Watrous of 67 East Third South street, Salt Lake City., It was for §6 75 for let- tering a box. There was also part of a till from Dr. S. Stiehel of Salt Lake. Further investigation into the death of Miss Gruner satisfles the police that it was due to natural causes, though of a somewhat pecullar nature. Their theory is that the young woman had received news that a love affair had ended unhap- p'ly for her and that in a violent fit of emotion she had burst a blood vessel. Miss Gruner had come from Salt Lake quite recently. @ defrimeteiedefeeeetteiefufieiviiriviiniminiiiiiee i @ TROOPS ARE PREPARING FOR THE MANEUVERS Various Organizations That Are to Take Part Are in Camp at Fort Riley.

MORD FORTS ARE CAPTURED BY AMERICANS Uncle Sam’s Troops Take Strongholds of the Rebels. Twenty-Five of the Enemy Are Killed by the Vic- torious Forces. Captain Pershing of the Fifteenth Infantry Is Operating With Suc- cess on the Island of Mindanao. B b —, MANILA, Sept. 2.—Up to Sunday the force commanded by Captain John Persh- ing of the Fifteenth Infantry, operating against the Moros in the island of Min- Ganao, had met with slight resistance In the Macien country and had captured eral forts and killed twenty-five Moros. There were no American casualties. Captain Pershing’s courier reached Brigadier General Samuel S. Sumner at Camp Vicars to-day. The captain report- ed that he first moved on Goanan, where the troops took three forts. They then pushed on to Bayanbo and captured two forts. From there the column proceeded to Sanir and captured two more forts. From Pantanan to Salir, in the country dominated by the Sultans of Call and Bu- tig and the two Sultans of Maclen, the column was frequently fired upon. Captain Pershing communicated with the Macien Sultans, but they refused to recognize the Americans-and remained obstinate. ‘When the courier departed Captain Pershing had planned to attack Macien to-day.
