PAYS NOBLE TRIBUTE TO NATION’S MARTYR President Roosevelt Pronounces a Brilliant and Heart{elt Eulogy Upon the Life and BANK ROBBERS LW UP LT Secure a Considerable Sum of Money and ANTON, Ohlo, Jan. 27.—President Roosevelt to-night participated i a notable tribute to the memory of the late President McKinley. He was the principal orator at a banquet given under thie auspices of the Canton Republican League in commem- oration of the birthday of McKinley. He pronounced a brilliant and eloquent eu- logy upon the life and works of McKin- ley—a eulogy by many regarded as the most beautiful and heartfelt tribute ever heard to the memory of the distinguished dead. The Interior of the banquet hall was beautifully decorated with flags and flow- ers. The occasion was the most brilliant of the kind ever witnessed in Canton and few banquets ever heid in Ohio equaled it in beautiy, elaborateness and interest. Among the 457 guests assembled about the boards were some of the most dis- tinguished men In the civil, public and political life of the country. At the speaker’s table besides President Roosevelt were seated Judge William R, Day, who acted as toastmaster; Secretary Root, Secretary Cortelyou, General 8. B. M. Young, General Leonard Wood, Luke Wright, Vice-Governor of the Philip- es; Surgeon General Rixey, Captain V. 8. Cowles, the President's naval aid; Colonel Theo Bingham and Charles Em- ory Smith. = At the tables throughout the large au- ditorium were men of State and national prominence. Governor Nash of Ohio, who was expected to be present to re- spond to the toast, “Ohio,” was unable to leave his home on account of illness. Soon after the close of a reception to the President at the Hotel McKinley President Roosevelt and party walked in | a driving rain from the hotel to the ban- quet hall, half a square distant. As the President entered the banquet hall the assemblage rose as one mass and cheered him heartily. The demonstration, the first of the day, was a personal tribute to the President, which he received with pleasure. As soon as the President and party were seated the doors of the balcony and gallery were opened and in a few minutes-they were crowded with handsomely gowned women and men in evening dress. Hundreds who | desired to attend the banquet were unable | to obtain tickets. The menu, admirably served, was all that could be desired. The material part of the programme was not concluded until 10 o'clock. Judge | Day, as toastmaster, in introducing Pres- ident Roosevelt, spoke briefly In part as follows: It is fitting that in this home of McKinley's chaice his fellow countrymen should meet to pay tribute to his memory and 1o remew the lessons of patriotism and Virtue which hig lif= taught. Willlam McKinley's most precious legacy to manking is the example of his life Aot Ahacatier it hbleut implicitly in his country and its institutions. He had supreme faith in the people. He never sought to exalt himself above the peoplé ke served. In his career the youth of the country may learn that the surest foundation of enduring suc- cess is upright character. As the President rose to speak the | audience rose and cheered him enthusi- astically. When he addressed the toast- master as “‘Mr. Justice Day,” a designa- tion applied only to Justices of the United States Supreme Court, his auditors shook the building with applause. Presidept Roosevelt spoke in part as follows: Throughout our history. and fndeed through- out history generally, it has been given to only @ very few thrice-favored men to take so marked a lead In the criscs faced by their veral generations that thereafter each stands 2s the embodiment of the triumphant effort of his generation, President McKinley was one of these men. It was given to President McKinley to take the foremost place in our political life at a time when our country was brought face to face with problems more momentous than any whose solution we have ever attempted. save only in the Revolution and in the Civil' War; and it was under his leadership that the na. tion solved these mighty problems aright, Therefore he shall stand in the eyes of history not merely as the first man of his generation. but as among the greatest figures in our na. tional life, coming second only to the men of the two great crises in which the Unlon was founded and preserved, HIS POWER OF LEADERSHIP. President McKinley's rise to greatness nothing of the sudden, niothing of the un’e‘;:éfe’é or seemingly accidental. Throughout his long term of service in Congress there was a st y Increase allke in his power of leadership and in the recognition of that power both by his associates in public life and by the public 1t self.

Paul Zimmer, an enkineer in Gilstero mill, who lives next door ‘to the bank, was awakened by the report of the first explosion. He went through the alley to the mill and informed the mill employes.

While two of the robbers worked inside the Lank, the other two stood guard. A dozen citl- zens gathered about the bank and open- ed fire on the robbers. The fire was return- ed, one of the robbers on guard shouting to the citizens that they had come to rob the bank and intended to do it. Their work finished, the robbers made a cash into the darkness. Another fusil- lade of bullets were exchanged. but no- | body was hurt, the robters finally get- ting away in a stolen rig. @ il jefeinfeleeiein it @ BOWEN MAKES FAST PROGRESS | {Only Minor Details of Peace Terms Are [ Unsettled. | Special Dispatch to The Call CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET N.

Serman Forelgn office may be desirous that Baron von Sternburg formally con- clude the negotiations which Count Quadt has thus far carried on so satisfactorily. Thus German acquiescence is perhaps ho- ing withheld pending the arrival of Baron von Sternburg. But in administration circles it is belleved that the allled pow- ers have reached an agreement to accept Bowen's proposal. In Cuba, where we were pledged to glve the island” independence, the pledge was kept not merely in letter but in spirit. Finally, in the Philippines, the problem was one of great complexity. There was an 1u- surrectionary party claiming to represent the people of the isiands and putting forth their claim with a certain speciousness which de- celved no small number of excollent men here at home and which afforded to yet others a chance to arouse a factious party spirit against the President.
