President Took An Important
Part In Friday's Opening.
President Answers Criticism Few
May Day Strikes Money Needed
For Peary's Voyage Engine and
Coach Went Into Creek David Will
cox Shot Himself
President Roosevelt took an Import-
ant part in the tiponlng of Jamestown
exposition and the incidental exercises,
which begun soon after he arrived
at Hampton Roads on Friday. In the
morning the review of the assembled
men-of-war iyjd the reception of the
Hug officers and commanding officers
uf the foreign ships took place. At
half past 10 the president left the May
(lower and was met at the end of the
government pier by the officers of the
exposition and a military escort At
the Bame time he was saluted by the
United States artillery stationed on
the exposition grounds.
An hour later he went to the re
viewing stand on Lee's parade in the
rear of the Auditorium building, where
a program of exercises, Including his
address and that of President Tucker
of the exposition, and the pressing of
the gold button opening the exposition,
took pluce.
In the afternoon there was a
lunch, to the president and his party in
the Auditorium building; review of a
parade of the soldiers and sailors and
the National Guard, and a reception to
the president by the officers and dl
lectors of the Jamestown Exposition
company. .
President Answers Criticism.
In a letter addressed to Honore
Jaxon of Chicago, chairman of the
"Cook County Moyer-Haywopd con
ference," President Rooaevelt replied
to the criticisms of his recent letter
in which he referred to Moyer and
Haywood, officials of the Western Fed
eration of Miners, charged with impli
cation in the murder of former Gov
ernor Stuunenberg of Idaho, as "un
desirable citizens."
The president says he regrets any
bodv of men should bo far foreet their
duty to their country as Oby forma
tion, of societies, and in other ways,
endeavor to influence Justice and
coerce court or Jury; that they, not he,
are trying to influence Justice and he
condemns what he calls their flagrant
Impropriety in the matter.
He says that he indicated no opin
ion as to their guilt of the Steunen
berg murder, but that It was a sim
ple absurdity to suppose that because a
man is on trial he is free from crltl
clsmfcs to his manner of life. He said
he 4ght as well be accused of trying
to influence the suits againBt Harrl-
nian, some of whose friends had also
criticised hla. ,
lie said that Moyer and Haywood
stand us representatives of those who
habitually appear as guilty of incite
ment to or apology for bloodshed and
violence.'
He added that he was profoundly In
different to the condemnation of him
for his criticisms of' the undesirable
types of citizens, regardless of the
power of either labor or capital.
,Make No Reply to President.

letter declaring them to be "undesir
able citizens." The attorneys declare
they cannflt. In the Interests of their
clients, permit them to become in
volved with the president of the Unit
ed States and his friends in a newspa
per controversy. Already, counsel de
clares, has their case suffered from too
much agitation, and they will not,
either for themselves or their clients.
make .any statement regarding the
president's utterances.
Good Outlook For Labor.
The opening of the out-door con-
stopUon season finds New York,
botirNlty and state, without ar-
prehensflm of serious labor troubles.
In the building trades especially pros
perous and reassuring conditions pre
vail. .
There is a large and well met de
mand for both skilled and unskilled
labor, due to the extensive private
construction projects now under way,
and the tunnels, railway terminals and
other undertakings of a public or
quasi-public nature.
This contentment Is generally re
flected .In the manufacturing and In
dustrial centers and beyond a few lo
calized and sporadic strikes the labor
situation Is regarded as brighter than
for many years.
Trouble Over Eight-Hour Day.
Labor's New Year's day, May 1, finds
San- Francisco facing serious labor
troubles. Eleven Unions, Including
every branch of the metal trades, have
called meetings for between now and
next Tuesday night to consider the re
fusal of employers to grant an eight
hour day with nine hours' pay.
A vote will be taken to decide
whether the men shall accept the of
fer of a 'continuance of the nine-hour
day with a 5 per cent Increase of
wages or strike. About . 10,000 men
are Involved
Money Needed For North Pole Dath.
Lack of money about JG0.000 to
finance the expedition may mean the
abandonment of the dash to the North
polo which Commander Robert E.
Peary has planned for this summer.
The Peary Arctic club, of which
Morris K. Jessup Is president, li at
tending largely to refitting the Roose
velt, and It has Issued an appeal for
contributions from the people of the
United States so that a total of J100,-
000 may be raised.
To this gigantic task of discovery
Commander Peary Implicitly believes
his fellow countrymen should lend
their active Interest and support. The
vigor of his robust and hardened
frame, the determination in his
strong face and his absolute confl
deuce that he has been destined to at
tain the goul, all express his convlc-
tion that he will win.
Commander Peary said that if condi
tions were favorable the objects of the
expedition might be accomplished in
one season. But he might remnln
north as long as three years. He was
preparing, he said, for a long and stern
battle.
Cngine and Coach Went Into Creek,
Two trainmen were killed and more
than one hundred passengers had a
thrilling escape from death in a wreck
on the Wabash railroad Sunday when
the engine and one passenger coach of
westbound train No. 27 left the tracks
half a mile west of the Brldgevllle sta
tion and plunged headlong Into Char-
tiers creek, 40 feet below. Scores of
people were saved by a circumstance
which Is now regarded as providential
A new schedule went Into effect on
the road Sunday and to this fact many
owe their lives. By the new schedule
train No. 27 left this city 45 minutes
earlier than formerly and over 50 per
sons missed the train for this reason,
Because the passengers were fewer

David Willcox Shot Himself.
David Willcox, ex-presldent of the
Delaware & Hudson Railroad com
pany, committed suicide at sea last
Wednesday, while a passenger on the
North Oerman Lloyd steamer Bar
baroBHa. ,
Mr. Willcox, broken in health, sail
ed for Europe some time ago and re
cently, becaTise he had not benefited
physically, cabled his resignation of
the presidency of the railroad, which
was accepted by the directors, who
chose as bis successor Leonor F.
Loree, once president of the Baltimore
& Ohio and later of the Rock Island
railroad. At the time it was stated
that Mr. Willcox's retirement from the
presidency of the Delaware & Hudson
was prompted solely by 111 health.
, Free Love Destroys Colony.
The adoption of free love by a
portion of the members is given as
the cause of the downfall of "Equal
ity," a socialistic colony organized
at Belllngham, Wash., In 1897. For
years the colony has been pointed to
as a successful experiment in collec
tive ownership and production. Judge
Joyner of the Skagit county court, has
Issued an order that its property be
sold to pay the debts. The property
consists of 600 acres of land, sawmill,
printing plant and 20 dwellings. The
colony was established by a national
organization known as the Brother
hood of the Co-Operative Common
wealth, of which many prominent So
cialists were members.

PUBLIC UTILITIESBILL
Hearing Held by Joint Legisla
tive Committee.
Among Important Changes ' la That
Modifying Power of Removal and
Allowing Railroads to Exchange
Passes Transportation For News
paper Advertising.
Albany, April 30. The so-called
public utilities bill, in substantially
the form In which Its Introducers, Sen
Itor Page and Assemblyman Merrltt,
desired It to go before the two houses
for final disposition, came from the
printer late yesterday afternoon; too
late for detailed discussion at the
hearing, or conference, on the subject
held by the assembly railroads com
mittee In Joint session with the senate
committee on Judiciary.
There was, nevertheless, consider
able debate on the bill as originally
Introduced, though In several in-
stances Chairman Merrltt declared
that the assembly committee which
has worked many hours on the bill,
had already made substantially the
changes asked for.
Practically no new objections were
raiffc by the representatives of the
public service corporations who ap
peared before the committee, and most
of their suggestions were of a tech
nical legal character, relating, for in
stance, to provisions for the entry of a
defense by a corporation against
which one of the proposed public ser
vice commissions shall have begun
summary proceedings to enforce Its
orders.
Pierce Criticlsea the BUT.
The chief direct criticism of the bill
as a whole was made by Henry J.
Pierce, chairman of a committee ap
pointed by the trustees of the Buffalo
Chamber of Commerce, who presented
11 specific criticisms based on the or
iginal bill, three of which it appeared
had already been made by the assem
bly committee. The principal objec
tlon was against the absolute power
of removal vested in the hands of the
governor.
Ex-Assemblyman Charles Campbell,
who was leader of the Municipal
Ownership delegation In last year's
assembly, attacked the bill as unin
telligible to- a layman, and said It
ought to have several months consid
eration. O. D. Franz of Buffalo, repre
senting a local organization of the
Brotherhood of Railway Conductors,
objected to the bill on the ground that
It would Inevitably result in injury to
railroad employes.
An Informal discussion was held
with the committee by Charles Mat-
thewson, representing the Consolidat
ed Gas company, William N. Dykeman
the Brooklyn Union -Gas company and
Colonel Timothy P. Williams the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company.
It was announced by Chairman Mer
rltt that so far as the assembly com
mittee was concerned there would be
no more hearings on the bill, but that
anyone who had suggestions to make
after study of the amended bill might
communicate them to the committee.
Discussed at Public Meeting.
The special committee of the Al
bany Chamber of Commerce which has
been studying the public utilities bill
has reported and the trustees of the
organization have adopted a-recommendation
favoring a public meeting
to be held here for the discussion of
the bill:
As conditions of the meeting it Is
specified:
That two prominent speakers be in
vited to address this meeting, one to
favor the measure, the other to op
pose It; that the chambers of com
merce and boards of trade In the state
be Invited to send representatives to
this conference; that It be understood
that this conference Is called for the
sole purpose of discussing the measure
and that no vote Is to be taken com
mitting the gathering as standing In
favor of. or opposing the bill; that the
Albany Chamber of Commerce is not
to commit Itself at the present time
as either opposing or favoring the
measure."
Among the railroad labor organiza
tions which notified the legislative
committees of opposition to the bill
are II. G. Brooks Lodge No. 169 of Hor
nell and Albany City lodge No. 230 of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Engineers.
Among the amendments to the bill
as originally Introduced the most Im
portant from the layman's viewpoint
Is that modifying the power to remove
public service commissioner, pro
posed by the bill .to be given to the
governor. In the original bill It was
provided that any commissioner might
be removed by the governor, "but In
case of such removal the governor
shall file with the secretary of state a
statement of the reasons for such re
moval and shall report such removal
and the reasons to the legislature at
its next session." The amended bill
provides that:
"The governor may remove any com
missioner for inefficiency, neglect of
duty or misconduct In office, giving to
him a copy of the charges against him
and an opportunity of being publicly
heard in person or by counsel in his
own defense upon not less than 10
days notice. If such commissioner
shull be removed, the governor shall
file In the office of the secretary of
state a complete statement of all
charges made against him and his
findings thereon together with a com
plete record of the proceedings."
The salaries of the commissioners
are Increased from 110,001) to 115,000.
The salaries of the commissioners, sec
retary and counsel for the first dis
trict, which by the first bill were to
have been paid by New York city, are
now to be paid by the state. The sal
ary of other employes In the first dis
trict are to be paid by the city as p.-o
vided in the first bill. By the original
bill all fees collected by the two com
missions were to go to the state. By
this bill all fees collected in the first
district are to go to New York city.
As to free transportation the bill is
so amended as to allow railroads to ex
change passes and the following Is
also added:
"Nor shall anything In this act pre
vent the issuance of passenger trans
portation In exchange for advertising
pace in newspapers at full rates."
UNREASONABLE RESTRICTION
Francis Lynde Stetson Criticlsea the
Public Utilities Bill.
' Niagara Falls, N. Y., April 30. Sen
ator P. H. McCarren of Brooklyn and
Francis Lynde Stetson of New York
wore the principal speakers at the
Board of Trade banquet last night.
Mr. Stetson paid particular attention
to the public utilities bill now before
the legislature.
"At present," said he, "and In quar
ters where we might expect a more
genial view of mankind at work, It
seems to have become easy to assume
that the winning workers are no more
than lucky gamesters, conducting their
play under the astute advice of con
scienceless counsellors."
Such a law, continued Mr. Stetson
would have postponed the industrial
development of Niagara and It must
lead to a check and delay In the Invest
ment of new capital. He claimed that
the intervention proposed by the bill
would place unreasonable restrictions
upon established businesses and oper
ate most seriously to the disadvantage
of the small Investor.
GIRL SUICIDE'S FUNERAL.

Oil City, Pa., April 30. Funeral ser

the Methodist Episcopal church, at
Centerville, this county.
The interment was In a country
graveyard, two miles from the church,
and the procession of mourners In
rigs reached from the church to the
cemetery. Many people drove all
night to be present.
The services were conducted by
Rev. Lloyd Williams, pastor, who
caused a sensation by declaring: "The
world Is better off without Stanford
Whites, Harry Thaws and men of
their stamp. Our daughters in their
homes are safer without them. May
God have mercy on their souls."
