Hits British Rule in Egypt.
Says If Engand Is In Egypt by Right
She Should Stay, If Not She Should
Get Out.
London, June 1.—The freedom of the
city of London was presented to Theo-
dore Roosevelt, and he accepted the
honor with a literalness that led him
into a frankness of speech that creat
ed a sensation in old Guildhall
The former president gave the moth-
erland some bold advice as to her
duty toward her most troublesome de-
pendency in Africa.
It was, Mr. Roosevelt said, either
right or not right for Great Britain
to be in Egypt and establish order
there. If it was not right she should
get out.
He eulogized British rule in Uganda
and the Sudan. He also declared that
Great Britain had given Egypt the
best government that country has had
in 2000 years, but in certain vital
points it had erred. Timidity and sen-
timentality, he said, might cause more
harm than violence and injustice.
“Sentimentality,” he asserted, “is
the most broken reed upon which
righteousness can lean.”
Mr. Roosevelt denounced the Na-
tionalist party of Egypt as neither de-
girous nor capable of guaranteeing
primary justice. It was trying to bring
murderous chaos upon the land.
Some nation, said the former presi.
dent, must govern Egypt. He hoped
and believed that the English would
decide that the duty was theirs.
As a whole the speech was the most
forcible expression on foreign topics
the distinguished visitor has made dur-
ing his European tour.
He dealt principally with the British
policy in Egypt, which is today one of
the most discussed of Great Britain's
colonial questions.
His outspoken views sent a thrill
through the one thousand auditors
which is likely to be felt outside the
walls of the ancient council hall.
Mr. Roosevelt was driven in state
from Ambassador Reid's home to the
Guildhall, but the weather was not
propitious and comparatively few per-
sons witnessed the procession.
Rain fell throughout the forenoon,
keeping most people indoors and only
a few hundred persons were gathered
in the vicinity of Dorchester house to
witness the departure, or in King
street when Mr. Roosevelt arrived at
the hall.
He occupied the lord mayor's coach,
and this was followed by the coaches
of the sheriffs, who wore their uni
forms of office.
The guests of the city government
at Guildhall included many American
and English business men besides offi-
cials of the city. The latter were in
uniform and had seats on the platform
to which Mr. Roosevelt was escorted.
The parchment conveying the free-
dom of the city was contained in a
beautiful gold casket. The presenta-
tion was made by Sir Joseph Cook-
field Dimsdale, city chamberlain, who,
extending his hand to the city’s guest,
spoke briefly. Sir Joseph dwelt par-
ticularly upon Great Britain's friend-
ship toward the United States.
Following the exercises, Sir John
Knill, lord mayor of London, enter-
tained Mr. Roosevelt at a private
luncheon, at which many prominent
personages were present.
Ruins Crops and Smothers Calf to
Death In Field.
Mount Vernon, N. Y., June 2.—A ter-
rific hailstorm swept over Pleasant-
ville. It aiso struck Patterson, many
miles north of Pleasantville, and did
great damage. At Pleasantville the
hail was as large as marbles and a
southwest gale caused the stones to
drift like snow, so that in places they
lay over a foot deep. The stones fell
for forty-five minutes, pelted cows in
the pastures and they ran mooing to
the shelter of the woodland. At Pat-
terson a new-born calf was buried be-
neath a heap of hailstones #nd was
smothered to death before the farmer
could rescue the animal. All the crops
around Pleasantville were practically
ruined, while the fruit trees were en-
tirely stripped.

Shot by Mine Pickets.
Wilkes-Barre, #a., June 2.—Pickets,
supposed to be strikers on guard
around the Ewen colliery of the Penn-
gylvania Coal company, near here,
shot and fatally wounded William
Zetto, of Port Griffith, a watchman at
the colliery. Zetto tried to sneak past
the line of pickets and get to his home,
but he was stopped by six of them,
he said, and when they- saw he had
been working he was shot at three
times.
Walks 60 Miles to Parade With G. A. R.
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., june 2.—William
H. Moser, a ninety-six-yvear-old veteran
of the Civil War, who walked thirty
miles from his home in Pine town:
ship, Columbia county, to Danville to
participate in the G. A. R. parade on
Memorial Day. walked back to his
home, and doesn’t seem in the least
upset by his long tramp despite his
great age.
Baby Swallowed Safety Pin.
Chicago, June 1.—Dorothea Clark,
six months old, of 2056 Howe street,
is dead at the German hospital, fol
lowing an operation which was per-
formed in an effort to remove an open
safety pin which the infant swallowed
last Saturday. The pin lodged in the
baby's stomach tube.
New Surveyor of Customs.
Washington, June 2. — Nelson H.
Henry, of New York, was confirmed by
the senate as surveyor of customs in
the district of New York. He succeeds
General James 8. Clarkson. The office
pays $8000 a year.

General Lara's Soldiers Driven From | FLIES FROM ALBANY TO NDW YORK pey sprang from an item in the sun-
the East Coast of Nicaragua—United
States Marines at Scene.
Washington, June 2.—The dispatch
received at the state department from
Captain Gilmer, commanding the Pa-
ducah, at Bluefields, is the only infor
mation received by the government of
the recemt engagement there. This
dispatch, which was dated Wednesday,
stated that General Lara had been de-
feated by the Estrada forces and was
in full retreat with the remnant of his
army numbering about 300 men.
All their efforts met with failure,
and General Estrada's forces succeed-
ed in killing several hundred of Gen-
eral Lara's soldiers, besides captur-
ing over 200 of the government troops.
It was reported by deserters from
General Lara's forces who came into
Blueficlds and surrendered to the in-
surgents, and also by the soldiers cap-
tured by the Estrada forces, that the
government's soldiers were in a starv-
ing condition.
With the exception of these 300
men, the only forces that Madriz has
on the east coast, as understood here,
is a detachment on Bluefields bluff,
about six miles east of Bluefields City,
and a force estimated at not exceeding
1000 men facing General Mena, the
Estrada commander, at Rama. It is
pointed out that General Estrada. with
his victorious army could, without hin-
drance, proceed to Rama. and so join-
ing forces with General Mena, readily
disperse the Madriz army in front of
that city.
The only feasible means of commu-
nication between Bluefields and Rama
is by way of the Escondido river, anc
it is understood that the banana ves-
sels on the river are available for the
transportation of the Estrada army
to that poini. It is also conjectured
that General Lara's course of retreat
will probably be down the coast to
Monkey Point, where he and his men

when his little biplane, which is only |
half as big as Paulhan's famous flyer,
split the air at more than a sixty-mile |

was 54.8 miles an hour. '
The winds were good to Curtiss,
and a finer day for bearding space and |

New Federation Born on Eighth Anni.
versary of Ending of Boer War.
Pretoria, Union of South Africa,
June 2.—The Union of South Africa
was born with the reading of the royal 4
proclamation of the single dominion
constituted by the legislative union
of the British colonies of Cape Col-
ony, Orange River Colony, Natal and
the Transvaal. The reading was at the
assembly house here, where just eight
years ago the Boer leaders signed the
British terms of peace.
Viscount Gladstone was sworn in as
governor general of the Union, Gen-
eral Louis Botha as premier and the
other members of the new ministry.
Each of the four colonies becomes a
province, and each province will have
its own council and send members to
the Union parliament, which will con-
sist of a senate and house of assembly.
Cape Town will be the seat of the
legislature, and Pretoria the seat of
the executive government.
Harmless Missile Caused Commotion
at Gates of Palace In Berlin.
Berlin, June 2.—There was a com-
motion among the royal party return-
ing from the annual joint review of
the Berlin and Potsdam garrisons at
Tempelhof fleld, when+a man who had
followed at a distance hurled a missile
at Crown Prince Frederick William.
The object missed its mark and fell
harmlessly at the feet of a policeman.
Upon investigation is was found to be
an ordinary tin can such as is used
for the preservation of fruit and vege-
tables, and was filled with uncooked
beans.
The party was about to enter the
palace when the incident occurred, and
for a moment it was believed that a
bomb had been thrown.
The police seized the assailant. who
proved to be § Russian named Abra-

ble for his actions.
Pottstown Girl Becomes First June
Bride In Midnight Marriage.
Pottstown, Pa., June 2.—That she
might win the gas range offered by a
gas company to the first June bride,
Miss B. Anne Engle and Harry Wit-
myer, both of Pottstown, were mar
ried at two minutes after 12 o'clock
Wednesday. The ceremony was per
formed by 'Squire Elias H. Gilbert,
whom they routed out of bed to have
the nuptial knot tied.
It was 'Squire Gilbert's first wed-
ding. He was until recently the rep-
resentative of the Fourth legislative
district of Montgomery county, and
resigned to assume the duties of jus-
tice of the peace, his term having
nearly expired.
Lightning Hits Harriman Barn.
Middletown, N. Y., June 2.—Light-
ning struck the barn on the Harriman
estate at Arden, killing Roland Harri
man’s pet saddle horse and severely
shocking fifty other thoroughbreds.
The fear crazed horses were taken out
and the flames extinguished before
heavy damage had been done.

at the toe of the island, there was a |
great scurrying when theshigh riding |
smudge resolved itself into the clean |
lines of a flying machine, and Curtiss |
was made out at the wheel |
it was a few seconds after noon |
when the army gathered him in over
behind Castle William and, as is the |
army's way, invited him to have one |
great big drink. It is not on record
that the army was disappointed. Few
men have showed less elation than
Curtiss did when he stepped out of
the biplane and shook hands with
Major Hoff and Brigadier General
Walter Howe, commanding the depart-
metn of the east. He smiled faintly,
said he was glad he had finished the
job and then turned to watch a de-
tachment of soldiers roll the machine
into the aerodrome.
Firebug's New Scheme.
Charged with having set fire to his
store by means of a chemical com-
pound, the nature of which has caused
a sensation in police and fire circles,
Eugene Frank, twenty-three years of
age, was committed to the county
jail at Paterson, N. J.. by Recorder
Carroll without bail. The latest
freak of the prosphorouslike com
pound with which the contents of the
store at 890 Main street were smeared
has sent Fireman Martin J. O'Rourke
to St. Joseph's hospital. O'Rourke was
placed on guard at the store and when
he picked up some of the compound
it ignited in his hands. The hand was
severely burned and O'Rourke may
lost two of his fingers. The police re-
gard the compound as the most dan-
gerous yet devised for the purpose of
arson, as the application of water only
serves to make it more inflammable.
Taft Resents Criticism.
President Taft sent to Chairman
Tawney, of the house committee on
appropriations, a letter expressing
deep resentment at the criticism pass
ed by Democrats in the house debate
upon the traveling expenses of the
president.
The president's letter follows:
“Washington, D. C., May 27, 1910.
“My Dear Mr. Tawney—I am deeply
grieved over the phase which the dis-
cussion of the appropriation for the
traveling expenses of the president
took. I think it is a legitimate argu-
ment in favor of such an appropriation
that congressmen and many others
press the acceptance of invitations to
visit their sections and districts, be-
cause the urgency of such requests in-
dicates the opinion on the part of the
people that ome of the duties of the
president is to visit the people in their
homes.
“But the intimation or suggestion
that the acceptance by congressmen
of the president's invitation to travel
on the train with him in their respec
tive districts or states was a reason
why they should not vote their free
opinion on the question of such an ap-
propriation is to me a most painful
one. In traveling upon the train they
were not receiving my hospitality—
they were only making a little more
elaborate the cordial welcome which
they as representatives of their dis-
tricts wished to give.
“The feature of the discussion which
was especially distressing to me was
a suggested reflection on southern
hospitality. The iutimation that some-
where in the south board was charged
has no foundation in fact, and I never
heard it intimated until i saw it in
this morning's papers.
“In all my experience, and I have
enjoyed the hospitality of many sec-
tions and countries of the world, I
never had a more cordial, generous,
open and lavish welcome than I had
in the southern states during my trip,
and the slightest hint that puts me in
the attitude of a critic of that hospi
tality gives me great pain.
“Very sincerely yours,
“WILLIAM H. TAFT.”
