The society accept- ed the invitation of the citizens of Manassas to hold its meeting on the spot where rude monuments were erected by the hands of Union soldiers after they had received their first bap- | tism of fire and the terrible presence of death in its most cruel forms met their gaze at every turn. Two monuments were erected. One stands on the War- | renton plke, near the Henry farm, | where a gentle slope of green field dot- ted with sturdy trees forms the veil that nature has drawn over the scenes of carnage.

Ride Without Luncheon | s L GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo., April 20.—That President Roosevelt is joying royal sport in his hunt for Rocky Mountain grizzlies is attested by Secretary Loeb, who returned from the camp late to-day after having spent the night with the party. While the only game pulled down thus far is the bear shot by the President andthe bobcat shot by Dr. Alexander Lam- bert there has been plenty of recrea- tion. Every day the dogs have fol- lowed trails that looked promising, showing that there are more bears to be found in the vicinity now being hunted. Secretary Loeb left Glenwood Springs yesterday morning with Elmer Chapman, the courier who brought out the first word from the camp. They . went to Newecastle, procured mounts and rode the twenty-three miles to the Charley Penny Ranch. When about three miles from camp they heard the baying of hounds hot on the trail of game. They waited and soon the entire hunting party rode up. The President and his companions had been in the saddle ten hours without stopping for luncheon, so dinner was served soon after their arrival at camp. Loeb says it was only neces- sary to see them eat to know that the hunters were in the best of health and enjoying themselves. During the dinner and afterward the President and Loeb had a long visit. Naturally the secretary wanted to know all about the bear which the President had killed. It was an inter- esting story, in which all members of the party shared in the telling. The dogs had several times caught up with the bear and had annoved him until he was in a vicious mood. Final- ly, when he was at bay, two or three members of the party, including the President, came up with the dogs. One dog had been killed and several others badly wounded and the bear was play- ing havoc with the others that were tantalizing him. To save the dogs the President had to shoot hurriedly. Every sweep of the bear’s paw bowled over a hound and rather than see more of the pack killed the President took. the chance of shooting between the dogs at the bear. He fired once and hit the ani- mal in the shoulder. Firing again, he killed his game. He takes great pride in the first trophy of the hunt. CHICAGO, April 20. — President Roosevelt, from his snowbound hunt- ing camp In Colorado, has forwarded his approval of tentative plans for his entertainment in Chicago on his return trip to the national capital. Messages were recelved by the Merchants’, Hamilton and Iroquois clubs to-day from Secretary Loeb stating that the nation’s chief executive had accepted the invitation of all three organiza- tions to become their guest during his visit to the city. According to the plan approved, the executive, on his arrival here, will be given a luncheon by the Merchants’ Club. During the afternoon he will be tendered a reception at the Hamilton Club and in the evening he will be the guest of honor of the leading Demo- cratic organization of the city at the Iroquois Club banquet, ——— | WRITES A LETTER THAT GETS HIM INTO TROUBLE Indictment of Former Mississippi Post- master Results From Note He Wrote to President.

Sully case, to-day sent to Judge Hoit of the United States District | Court an opinjon which, if approved ' by the court, will reopen the Sully case entirely and bring up for adjudication several important and almost sensa- tional points. The opinion is given upon the application of two sets of pe- titions—one from Edwin Hawley and Frank H. Ray, who have been Sully’s rustees in bankruptcy; for certain | sums alleged to have been lost through | participation with Sully in alleged cot- ton pools, and the others from credit- ors who are not members of the Cot- ton ExcHange. { Three questions were brought up—! first, whether $1,000,000 paid on Satur- | day, March 18, 1904, was a preference | and so illegal; second, whether the Friday's prices or Saturday’s prices should determine the amount the Sully estate owes, and, third, whether trans- actions on the Cotton Exchange are | gambling transactions. . | The opinion of the referee is that the | case should be reopened. If Judge Holt decides in favor of this it will re- open the whole question, and if the claims are decided it will make an im- mense difference in the amounts due. If it is proved that Cotton Exchange transactions are gambling transactions Sully is solvent and will not owe a cent. | —_—————— CLAIM WEALTH OF INSANE MAY NORFOLK, Va., April 20.—The latest relative of Thomas Yandaw, deceased, who, it recently developed, was largely | interested ‘in a California fortune of | more than $1,500,000, is Antoine Yan- daw of 220 Main street, Chicopee Falls, | Mass., who says he is the brother of | the deceased Norfolk man.

Fairbanks told of their escapades as though they were mere Incidents in a boy's life. When asked what their motive was he replied: “Luke, who was going to leave town, said he wanted to have a devil of a time before he left. He proposed to start four fires in different parts of the town and then to assist in putting them out. He told us that if we ever breathed a word he would shoot our heads off.” ——————————— | TALENTED CALIFORNIAN | IS HONORED AT VASSAR Miss Elizabeth Goodrich of Santa College Paper. POUGHKEEPSIE, N.

PORTLAND, Ore., April 20. — With the arralignment of State Senator George C. Brownell of Oregon City on next Friday, all the more prominent persons indicted for complicity in the land fraud cases in this State will have pleaded. United States District Attorney Francis J. Heney expects to return to San Francisco on that day to remain until such time as the first case is set for trial. In case the Government wins in the Mitchell abatement proceedings it is the present understanding that all the land fraud cases will be pressed to early trial. While it is not known which of the cases will be tried first, it is believed that it will be the one against Senator Mitchell, in which he entered the plea in abatement. This is the case in which it is charged that Senator Mitchell accepted money for practicing before a Government department while an offlcla.k;t the Government in a case in which the Government was directly interested.
