"Ther* is no chance for juggling with

Every item of our business If spread be

ACTION IN WASHINGTON
Attorney General Moves After
Consultation with President.
IFV^m TITS Trl£run« Bureau.'] ■ : *
Washington, May Following an
earlj morning conference with Attorney
Gerieral "Wiekershiini.-Jt was announced
at the Whfte Hous- that the govern
ment had decided to begin a suit to «>n
join" th» twenty-five /^Western railroads
•which ha ve served' wjitic« on the Tnter
state Commerce -Commigsion of thetr
purpose to increase freight rates to
morrow.
President Taft did n«t hesitate to ap
prove the recommendation of the At
torney General, in whose legal Judgment
he has great confidence. Mr. Wtckers
ham reached a decision to Invoke the
machinery of the federal courts to stay
the proposed increase in rates after a
long conference yesterday afternoon
with "Western shippers.
Before the Cabinet meeting to-day Mr.
Wlckerrham explained in detail to the
President the complaint of the shippers
and his plan tn afford them the relief
they desire. The Attorney General then
left for th«> Capitol to attend thr» Su
preme Court, and it was left to the
President to inform the Cabinet of the
decision, which had been reached.
Soon ; after Mr. "Wlckersha.ni reached
the Capitol be learnefl that Senator La
FoJlette. who has been one of his prin
cipal critics, had been demanding that
the Senate pass a resolution calling oh
the Attorney General to l>cgln proceed
ings immediately to enjoin the proposed
advance in rates. Mr. La Follette was
greatly exercised when unanimous con
sent tvas refused for thr immediate con
{■iflcratlon of his resolution.
Mr. TVickersham had informal con
ferences' With several of the Senate lead
ers and explained just what he was do
ing. When th 6 facts became known
Senators were greatly amused, for at
the very hour that Mr. La Follette im
demanding that the Senate go on rec
ord Instructing: the Department of Jus
tice to proceed against the railroads
rr.f> machinery to enjoin the carriers
was In operation. Apparently Mr. La
Follette did not take the paJns to in
quire about Mr. Wickehi:ham*3 plans,
and it appears that the Attorney General
went ah«ad to do what he conceived to
be his duty without advising the poli
ticians.

CHILD SEIZED AT PRAYER
Believed to Have Been Dragged
to Death from Altar — Mrs.
Wendling Firm.
Louisville, May 31.— Dincoverte? made to
day in the basement of St. John's Catholic
Church, according to the police, reveal *!
ra66t every detail of thft murder of Alma
! Kellncr, eight jt>ars old, who disappeared
on December 8, IW, having probably been
snatched from the altar, where the was
praylns alone.
Burled in the church basement, just un
d*r the sacristy, were found Alma's gaunt
let £iov», her handkerchief and two m^n's
handkerchiefs, covered with blood.
It Is now th* police theory that Alma
was lat<s for th* regular church service*
that Ftie wae discovered alone praying in
the church, and was seized by Jojepn
Wendling, th« parish houee janitor, whr»,
th«? police believe, assaulted and murdered
the child and dragged her body into the
I basement through a hole iri the sacristy.
The police believe that Wendling- tried t«
i burn the bo<3r in the ciiurch furtiaca, and
failing, later threw it into an old cistern
1 under one of the parish houses. Ther<» it
wa« accidentally discovered yest**rday.
A t<;l9jßxaTn from Ke^r Orleans says ft i

murderer. Mrs, Joseph Wendling was pre- !

The most persistent ou*Eti«nlng of Mr*
TTeTidl'nir. <rho Is Charged itr» hiring been
an accessory to th« murder, has failed to
shake th« woman's first declaration that
fin© knew nothing ab»ut the crime. She
adheres to h*r statement that a ring and
pin MHsl in a trunk at her home, both of
which have positively b?en identifies as
th© property of th» rr>urd*red girl, were.
given k«- by a boy, ar . further than her
admission that eh« had seen nothing <">f h<*r

Clothing which her husband ig known to
have worn bears n-aroero-us etalns of blood.

whteh Mrs Wendlin? *tat«d she ha« thrown

in quality to that which was fotmd in th«

Loss of $12,000 That Was to
Have Won Him Fortune.
"I Cruising in the blue waters of <he .Medi

■ luxurious privHte cars, in fact, treading on
• 1 the soft and even surface of the royal road
• ! to wealth . and ease, werfi a few Of the
1 I pleasant prospects hall before the trusting
: ey^s of Frederic l/ouster, of Harrisburg,
Perm.. by a select -crowd of wire tappers.
• Yesterday Lcuster, his dream of rosy hue
• dfssipat«d by cold hard facts, caused the
: j arrest of one man who, according to his
I plaint, had something to do with the dis
• I appearance of IJC.rtftO that used to be hi*
I own.
Th* ctory recited to the poli<-» by Lou*tcr
is much like the tale told last April by
Henry Wagner, of No. 62 Cooper Squar*,
! a billiard table manufacturer, who had
caused the arrest of a man who paid he
was John Brown. According to the police,
Watpssr had been lured to Bt. Augustine,
j F!a., by *. group 'of real estate men, who
played the races for a paetlme. and in
cidentally pried Wlifßsf and $10, of hi*
! money apart.
nsj man arrested y«st*rdfty gave, his
■ BssM as John Hartrnan, a salesman, Of No.
■IB West 108 th street. He tras standing at
! th« corner of 47th ptT*«t gjpj| pgMMOI aye-
I pm* with fivo other men triisn Lou*t»»
j pointed him out to detectlvms from Head
j quarters. Th* others got away.
Louster told the police that he v.as a
grocer in Harrlsburg-, and made enough
money to fia/bble in real estate. The dol
lsrs continued to roll toto t s4s*t>r*l colters,
' and, as h* wae looking let MMr worlds to
1 BssslMr, Hartman c*m« along— a prop-
I esitior>.
V»*as Louster teterested in helping to en
ibJsssr a, great raal estate d<»al whereby,
with his valuable knowledge ol market
values, hs BssjM reap riches such as
Crasus never even dreamed of? then M ;
Issl ro to Jacksonville? Fla.. wh»re an
enormous deal in choice Southern sMsH
I ras about to b* completed.
Loueter was agreeable, 1m Raid. But be- i
fore going to Jacksonville Hartnan ex- j
plained to Louster it would be nee«t*ary
! Tor them to stop off at Baltimore, where
they -n-ere to m#«t a «roup of capitalist*.
These men of money, according to Hart
nan, were banded together to buy up choice
sections of Florida land, and it was his
MssMM to beat them to It and obtain op
tions on th 9 earn* land.
Having don* this, it ■w-A lJ j b* easy to
dispose of thess options to tbe millionaires i
at a rich advance. As 'Lon'rter had th«
necefesary exp«r!«n« in these matters— and !
the necaesary mon*}-— Hartnan tras wllJtng
to rhare his good fortune.
' While discussing real estate in Baltimore
ft "K-as natural that dM group of capitalists, \
Hart-nan and EOQSMr should turn their con- j
versation to hors* racing, tvyimer <«,-as told i
that OMM c* seme sort of a match race. \
on, and ths mea ef money were reckless '■
Trtth their incr«m*nt, But the man from j
Harrfsburi? had. nothing tn his head but j
ths lure of ths land and paid llttl* attention !
to the details of the ponies.
Just because Louster tras not taken v.lth
th« hor»?s was no reason -why h» should
not act us stakeholder for those tvho had
b^ts dff^-n, howe--er. and consecruently h«
aHoved HsJMHsI to be official guardian of
«ome {25,000 in checks an.4 rtal money..
Louster was delighted with tha trust re-
Vosed. In him, and when the bettors sug
gested that h<s ought to prove his standing
Ml agreed T.ith them, <K*jM -back to Harris
b-jrg and got a cartifled check for $10,000.
Louster -*-as told thai the match race had
be?n called off and that the capitalists had
gone t« Xctv Tork, and it woul4 be all
right if lie "would follow th»m and dis
tribute ti.e, b*ts. H* went to New York
with Hartman and rn«t the rest of the
gang. AH hande retired to a house tn West
53d street, wher« to while away the after
noon the races were played on "advance
Information,' Louster cashed in on a $100
b*t.
Flushed by success, T,ouster grabbed
hook, lin% and sinker, when he was told
that a Me; killing was coming Off. lie Jiur
ried out and eaf,'n«d Mi HMs) chock, and
then placed the lump sum on the horse he
was told to play. T/»uster u'as game, and
mhiim they told him that his horss ran
a good third, he accepted the laeii^t they
pr?sented themselves ar.d looked about for
more.
Tho next thing dlfihed up Or lii 3 con
sumption iraa the information that another
sure thing w»f due, ' and that he would
surely recoup his first losses if he sjsjm to

ROOSEVELT'S ADVICE
rnntlnurd from flr»t page
"Either you have <>r you have not the
right to remain In Egypt and establish
and keep order. If you have not the
right and have not the desire to keep
order then by all means get out. But
'f. as I hope, you feel that your duty to
civilized mankind and your fealty to
your own great traditions alike bid you
to utay, then make the fact and the
name agree and show that you are
ready to meet in very deed the respon
sibility which la yours.
"When a people treats assassination
as the cornerstone If self-government it
forfeits all rights to be treated as worthy
of government. Some nation must
govern Egypt, and I hope and believe
that the English nation will decide that
the duty is theirs."
Mr. Roosevelt dwelt on the baleful in
fluence of the Nationalist party in
Egypt, which had shown In connection
with the murder of the Premier that it
was neither desirous nor •'apabl*! of
guaranteeing Justice. Nor >i»'l England
shown enough of its strength. "You
! Ik. . c tried to do too much," he sai<), "in
i the interests of th«» Egyptians them
selves. Thos- who'havo to do with un
civilised p«?"p!e«.. especially fanatical
peoplef. must remembsr that In euch a
situation as that which faces you in
Egypt weakness, timidity ard senti
mentality may caus^ infinitely "more
harm than violence and injustice. Sen
timentaJlty is the most broken r*ed en
which rhjrntaMMßMM can lean."
With reference M th* Soudan, Mr.
Rocsavelt said h- felt as he. did about
the Panama Canal. Although it rnjght
not pay. it was Great Britain's duty to
stay there. In his opinion the Soudan
would pay. anyway. It was not worth
trhil* to belong to a. b** nation . unless
that nation was ready to shoulder a big
task.
H* prefac*i his remaxka on Egypt
with the statement that he spoks as an
unprejudiced outsider, as an American
ar.d a real democrat whose first duty
•rafl to war against violence, injustice
and wrongdoing wherever found. He
proffered his advice only in accordance
with th* principles on which he. had
acted as President in dealing with tha
Philippines, and he declared that th*.
present condition of affairs -in Egypt
was a grave mena.ee to the British Em
pire and to civilization.
As a whole, the speech constituted the
most forcible expression on foreign
topics that the ex-Pre*id»nt hap made
on his European trip.
The Guildhall has been the scene of
many stirring events since its erection, j
early in the fifteenth century. It was ,
there that the trials of Anne Aske-*\ the
Earl ef Surrey and Lady Jane Gr«: were
held, but no audience of modern times
has listened more intently to the pro- j
ceedingE therein than that which gath- j
er*d to-day to hear Mr Roosevelt.
Mr. Roosevelt vas driven in state
from Ambassador Reid's home to Tho '
I Guildhall, but ths tveather was not pro
pitious .and comparatively few persona
witnessed the procession. Rain fell [
throughout ths morning, JWspllH most \
people indoors, and only a Mw hundred '
persons wm gathered . at Dorchester '.

at the hall. He occupied the Lord
Mayor's coach, and this xvas foiiowsd by.

Guildhall included many American and i
English business men besides the offi
cials of the city. Th* latter wfj% in tinl- j
form and occupied seats on the platform
to which Mr. Roosevelt was escorted.
The parchment conveying to Mr.
Roosevelt the freedom of the city was
contained in a beautiful gold casket. '
The presentation was made hy Sir Jo-
s«pn. Cookfield t>iinsdale, the City Cham
berlain, who, extending his han3 to the
! city's guest, spoke briefly. Sir JUssptl
dwelt particularly on Great Britain's
friendship for the Vnited States.
Following the exercises Sir John
Knill. the Lord Mayor of London, enter
tained Mr. Roosevelt at a private lunch
eon. at which many prominent persons '
were present.
Tho casket presented to Mr. Roosevelt
was oblong in form, the. front and re
verse side being divided into four panels,
bolng enamel painted views of the Guild
hall, tho .Mansion liouse, -.-St. Paul's j
Cathedral and the Tower Bridge. - The j
centre showed the full blason of the
city arms in enamel, with an ornamental
shield below containing the Inscription.

arms of England, the. United States, y»o j
city shield and the. Union Jack. Tho 1
