At Weirs, Where a Grand Army Re
Union Is Held, a Crush Nearly
Ends la Disaster Police Unable
to Control the People Anxious to
Get a Glimpse of the President.
Speeches of the Day Are Received
with Great Favor.
By Exclushc Wire from llic AstotiituI Press.
Newbury, N. II., Aug. 2S. President
Itoo jvelt tonight Is the guest of Sec
retary of State Hay, whose summer
liome is situated a few miles from here
along the shores of Lake Sunupec. The
secretary and Ills daughter met the
president upon his arrival and joined
with the assemblage In extending him
a hearty welcome.
The president delivered a brief ad
dress to the townspeople, ,in which ho
thanked them for their greeting. He
then entered Secretary Hay's launch,
Nomad and steamed to the Fells.
New Hampshire's arms were open
today In readiness to receive the presi
dent. Long before ho was awake a
committee representing the governor
boarded the train. The welcome they
extended to him on behalf of the state
was magnified later In day In the smal
ler towns through which the train pas
sed, and at Nashua, Manchester, the
Weirs and Concord.
The day was replete with the mis
carriage of arrangements. At the
"Weirs, where the grand army reunion
was neiu, tne people, in the excess
of their desire to accord the president
u lifting reception came near causing
a crush which might have resulted
disastrously. As It was, the president
was for a time in the midst of a howl
ing, surging mass, and was ail but
carried off his feet. So inadequate was
the police arrangements that the
crowd hud entire control of the situa
tion and much relief was expressed
when the president, after reviewing the
veterans was escorted Into the hotel
for lunhcon. Here again the carefully
laid plans for his entertainment went
astray, luncheon being dually served
through the gallantry of the governor's
staff, who turned In and acted as wait
ers. The president's speech at the park,
where the veterans were gathered, was
most favorably receivd. As in the case
of Bangor, he admonished his hearers
to remain still and not shove. A great
crush occurred at Concord as the train
was pulling out, and for a time it was
feared people would bo hurt.
OVATION AT CONCORD.
The President Addresses the People
at the State Fair.
By Exclusive Wire (lorn The Associated Press.'
Concord, N. H., Aug. 28. The presi
dent's special reached Concord prompt
ly at 3 o'clock and was greeted with a
salute of twenty-one guns. A largo
crowd had gathered at the station and
voiced Its welcome In hearty cheers.
The party drove to the state fair
grounds, which the president entered to
the sound of a second presidential sa
lute. A stranger who attempted to
shako hands with the president was
hustled away by the secret service offi
cials. Arriving at the stage from which ho
was to speak, tho president received the'
geratest ovation of the day.
The president said:
Mr. Mayor. Men and Women of the
Htnto of Now Hampshire:
It is a great pleasure to mo to bo ablo
to como before you this afternoon and
to thank you and to thank the others in
your beautiful stato who liavo greeted
mo cordially today. As the mayor pointed
out, you of Now Hampshire have made
your state you and your forefathers
what it is, because you have not sought
tho mero llfo of ease, becauso you liavo
not shrunk from effort and from toll.

as it is with on Individual. Tho nation
that shirks Its work, the nation that
bocks only for ease, Is a nation which will

Do your work and do it up to tho

time to play, and, If you are worth any
thing, enjoy that too. Now, what Is true
of tho Individual Js true of the nation
Tho heroic times In this natlon'i career
were when It had great work to do, and
Instead of flinching from tho work, did
and It did thut hcrolo work In part be
cause at tho hour'.'of need It showed It
possessed herolo virtues, the heroic vir
tues thut n grea nd generous nation
must show und win show In tho crisis of
Its history: and also because" In addition
to the herolo virtues which can be used
but once in a e'iratlon, It had those
commonplace, hunftlrum, overy-duy vir
tues which save us yeur In und year out,
Hero In this stato the forefnii-Hrs of
your peoplo, as tho mayor Iiuh m came
to a region where only the wrongest und
bravest could have wrought success out
of a griping need, where only those Iron
of heart and sfeel of brain could jiovo
wrested this country from tho wlldorness
and from the savage. Since then, you
who have built so. well upon tho founda
tlon laid deep by your forefathers you
have done it by hurd work. It Is, In the
long run, the man who .counts, Just
exactly as In wnr, though you liavo got
to have the best weapons, yet they uro
useless If tho men behind them don't
handle them well; bo In peace, the best
oyistltutlon, the best legislation, the
greatest natural advantages, wllj avail
nothing If you have, not tho right typo
of citizenship to tako advuntugo of Ihcm.

If any mini iclli you that lie can ad

moved slowly up through the ngp,
stumbling, halting, rarely by leaps and
bounds, generally by a slow and painful
progression. The mlllcntum H a good
way off. yet, and we are going to succeed
now, If, as t believe, wo shall succeed by
(.bowing eactly the qualities which our
fathers showed when in gicnt crises they
succeeded.
There Is not any more possibility of re
medying all nf the Ills, social, economic,
political, of the body politic by some pat
ent device now than there was such pos
sibility In 1770 or In ISfil. The men who
won In the Revolution and made thin
country take Its place among the nations
or tho earth, did It because they halt In
them courage. If we approach those
problems In a spirit of hysteria, we will
fall, as well wo deserve to fall. If we ap
proach them In a spirit of envy and ran
cor and malice toward our fellows, wo
will not only fall, but we will drag them

It in a spirit, not merely of determination
to solve It, but of hearty desire to solve
It with Justice to all, with malice to
none; to solve It In a spirit of broad kind
liness and charity: In a spirit that will
keep us ever in mind that If we aic to
succeed at all, It must be by each doing
to the best of his capacity his own busi
ness, and yet by each remembering that
In a sense ho Is also his brother's keeper.
. At the conclusion of his remarks, the
president at once re-entered his car
riage and drove to the station, where
he took the train for Newbury, at
which Is the summer home of Secre
tary Hay.
TROOPS IN WEST VIRGINIA.
Everything Is Quiet Now in the
New Biver Coal Feld.
By Kxclushe Wire fioni The As-ociatcil 1'iess.
Thurmond, W. V.a., Aug. 28. Every
thing is quiet in the New River coal
field tonight and hns been quiet
throughout the) day, save a little skirm
ish at Cnperton, in which 20 or more
shots were tired, but no one injured.
Tho entire Second regiment of state
troops arrived here tonight and are
being distributed about various coal
operations, where trouble occurred yes
terday. Three companies of militia will be sta
tioned nt Rush Run, 2 miles west of
here, where yesterday probably 500
shots were IJred ncross tho New River
between strikers nnd guards. The
strikers opened fire on non-union men
going to work and the guards returned
the fire. None of the guards were In
jured and so far as known no strikers
were seriously hurt. The strikers
gathered in the woodlands and rocky
cliffs on the opposite side of the New
River mines and kept up u continual
lire throughout the dny. This led to
the militia being ordered out. Sheriff
Daniel thinks that more serious trouble
will follow soon. He says tho strikers
are becoming more determined and that
it was absolutely impossible for him to
cope with the situation. Almost every
mine on the Kanawha and New River
is being operated on n small scale. In
these fields probably 2,000 miners are at
work and G.OOO or S.000 Idle. Consider
able property already has been destroy
ed and It is believed the sending of
troops win result in bloodshed soon.
The operators are determined and state
emphatically that they have no thought
of conceding a single demand made by
the strikers.

Hcrlin. Aug. 28. The entry of King
A'lctor Emmanuel into the city today
and his drive through the Unter den

hour before the published time, as a
precaution against possible disorder.
Consequently, the great crowds which

brisk trot of a gorgeous cavalcade sur
rounding a six-horse carriage, in which
hat Emperor William and a small man,
In a dark uniform, pulling nt a blonde
moustache. The carriage stopped, and
the crowds ceused cheering In order to

handed the bouquet to a lackey, and
the cavalcade and carriage swept
through the gate and down t'nter den
Linden to the castle, three-quarters of
n mile uwny. The cheers of the people
were spontaneous and cordial. They
seemed so to Generals Corbln and
Young and their party, who had a row
of good windows. The American offi
cers admired the splendidly horsed cav
alry more than anything else.

TORPEDO
PRACTICE
Remarkable Showino Made bu the
Naval Gunners at flfl-
dlnrjton Gove.
MOST SATISFACTORY
RECORDS ARE MADE
Out of 14 Torpedoes Prepared, but
One Failed to Bun Of the 13 That
Did Bun, 12 Hit Between the Tur-
i
rets of tho Battleship Target A
Detailed Report of Bcsults That
Have Never Been Equalled.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Tress.
Washington, Aug. 28. The navy de
partment today received a report of
tho recent experiments conducted by
the torpedo fleet with the moving tar
gets: Forming In exact column, the flotilla
formed two abreast In fiont of Addlngtou
(Cove, when the Decatur turned and
hended for the target in the cove. This
target consists of three platforms sup
ported on casks, about "o feet long in all,
outside of which, one nt each end, are two
yellow flags, representing the two tur
rets of tho .'00 foot battleship. Outside
of these ugnin are two red flags, repre
senting the ends of the same ships.
Steaming bows on for the float, when
1.000 yards away, the secretary pressed
the filing key on the bridge, nnd simul
taneously discharged tho two torpedoes,
ouo on each side. They curved as set,
and one went Immediately under the cen
ter of the float, while tho other passed
just Inside the right hand yellow flag.
Each boat Hied two torpedoes simul
taneously from her port broadside, as her
tubes bore, firing while close to tho De
catur. Of the twelve torpedoes Hied by
them, one from tho Stockton hung by the
tall from the tube, with head In the wa
ter, and finally wrenched the tall off. but
not before It hud been secured. Of nil tiio
other eleven, nil but one passed' Inside
the yellow Hags and that one passed Just
outstJe,tic yellow flag.
All these torpedoes had gyroscopes In
operation except one of the pair from
the Diddle and that one hit the taicet
also, and one of the casks composing It
having to be cut open to get the torpedo
out.
Results Unequalled.
r believe that the results reported above
have never 'been" excelled- before, and I
know of no record equal to them. It is
seen that out of fourteen torpedoes pre
pared, but one failed to run. Out of the
thirteen that did run. twelve hit between
tho turrets of tho battleship target and
the other one under one of tho turrets.
Speed would have made no difference In
the shots, on nccount of the cap mark
tube gyroscope. In consldeilng tho re
sults, tho haste with which we got ready
for tho performance should not bo over
looked. After practice, and leaving boats be
hind to pick up the torpedoes, all of which
were shipped uninjured, the flotilla
formed column nt speed. It had been my
intention to proceed to sea for tactical
work, but I found that tho visitors
seemed Inclined to prefer a spin In the bay
which was accoidlngly taken in column
at full speed.

MR. CARLISLE ADDRESSES
THE BAR ASSOCIATION.
Ex-Secretary of the Treasury Speaks
of the Power to Acquire Territory.
By Kxclmlie Wire from The Associated Press.
Saratoga, N. V Aug. 28. John G.
Carlisle, of New York, former secretory
of the treasury, delivered the annual
address before the Amerlcun Bar asso
ciation today. He spoke upon the
power of the United States to acquire
nnd govern territory, which, he said,
was a question growing out of the ac
quisition of territory from Spain. Un
less the constitution Is changed, which
la hardly probable, said Mr. Carlisle,
the law Is the same, whether the terri
tory Is located In the eastern or west
ern hemisphere. He next touched upon
tho limitation of the power to acquire
territory under the constitution of the
United States and referred to the power
to declare war and to make treaties.
Tho territory acquired by military occu
pation, the speaker declared, is held by
the same until congress can meet and
substitute civil for military govern
ment. Congressional power to govern
acquired territory was dwelt upon at
some length nnd the Porto Rico Inci
dent in regard to imports nnd exports
was alluded to by the speaker.
"Porto Rico and the Philippines can
not be domestic for one purpose, and
foreign for another purpose," he said.
Mr. Carlisle quoted from decisions
handed down by the United States Su
preme court to support his contentions.
In the second on patent, trade-mark
nnd copyright law, today, the principal
nddress was made by L. L. Bond, of
Chicago.
In general session this evening Einlln

THE COAL OUTPUT IS
INCREASING DAILY
A Council of War Is Held at Head
quarters at Which, the Advisability
of Sending the Balance of the
Twelfth Regiment to the Panther
Creek Region Ninth to Succeed
the Twelfth.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
AVilkes-Barre, Pa,, Aug. 28. TheofB
clals at miners' strike headquarters
here have settled down to the belief
that there is no Immediate prospect of
an early settlement of the strike. While
President Mitchell would not say any
thing himself, some of his subordinates
were of the opinion all along that the
return of J. Pierpont Morgan to this
country would bring about a change In
tho situation favorable to the miners.
But the developments of the last few
days have entirely dispelled this optim
istic view and now all that Is heard Is;
"It Is a fight to the finish."
At the offices of the local coal com
panies the information is given out
that the output of coal in the Wyoming
region Is increasing dally. This Us
stoutly denied at strike headquarters.
and the minutes of a meeting of the
employes of the Avondnle mine, held
yesterday, on file at President Mitch
ell's headquarters, show that none of
the hands formerly employed at tho
colliery have returned to work.

cided that the battalion should remain
here for the present.
If It becomes necessary later on to

ment away. It Is understood that tho
Ninth regiment will succeed it here.
