MAY LAST NIGHT THROUGH -President Will Join His Family at Southampton, Sail ing Thence To-day. London. June 9. — Theodore Roosevelt's brief visit to England, ending to-morrow morning, though unfortunately coinciding with the period of national mourning, and for that reason shorn of much of th» splendor -which would have accom panied it under happier circumstances, was nevertheless one of the most note worthy foreign visits paid to Great Brit ain's shores in recent years. Nri foreign ruler or man of eminence could have aroused more universal atten tion, received a warmer welcome, or achieved a greater popularity among every class of society. It is true that his i?trirtures on Egyptian affairs occa sioned pol'"'-.*ai resentment in some quar ters, but he left no rancor bel.ind. be cause he was regarded as a privileged guest in whom no unworthy or unfriend ly motive could be suspected, and the frankness of his utterances is taken as a measure of the strength of the friend ship binding the two nations. The death of King Edward compelled the curtailment of public demonstra tions and entertainments projected in his honor. Even at that he was unable to accept half the invitations showered upon him. In characteristic fashion Mr. Roose velt deprived Londoners of the oppor tunity of giving him a send-off. Before the people were aware of his intention he had quietly left the city, not half a dozen persons knowing the time Of the manner of his departure. It appears that Mr. Roosevelt com plained that he had not had time to see a hundredth part of the country. He particularly wanted to walk through a typical English countryside. Accord ingly. Fir Edgard Grey, the Foreign Sec retary, grave him a friendly challenge to tramp through New Forest, a pictu resque and romantic spot near South ampton, full of geological and anti quarian interest. Sir Edward is a keen angler and deeply interested in ornithology, and the two started to-day on a long tramp through the woods. It is believed that the expe dition will be extended into the night and that they will spend the night at an inn. motoring into Southampton in the morning, where Mr. Roosevelt will meet his wife and family, who will go from London to Southampton in a special car. The ex- President had to decline the in vitation of the Mayor of Southampton to a public luncheon in his honor to-mor row He also expressed regret at his inability to lay the cornerstone of the memorial to be erected on the spot whence the Pilgrim Fathers sailed for America. Among Mr. Roosevelt's travelling com panions on the Kaiserin August Victoria will be Baron Henry Speck yon Stern- Lurg. nephew of the late German Am ba«ador at Washington; Mrs. George W. Vanderbilt and Joseph C Grew second secretary of th* embassy at Berlin, and Mrs. Grew. _ BIPLANE HITS SIX WOMEN Two of the Victims, Sitting in Grandstand, May Die. Budapest.

June ».— Permission has bfen refused to « <?• ar Hammentein, the theatrical manager, of New York, to visit Russia it was Mr. Hammerstem'a original intention to e->me to St. F*. t.-rs hurgr to secure Russian dancers. William Hammerstein said at the Victoria Theatre last night that he hadn't heard of his father's exclusion from Russia, and didn't know that he had any intention of going there right away, anyhow However, he said, until he heard something more definite from Paris he couldn't comment upon the news in any particularly enlightening fashiun. and he couldn't tell whether he would take up the matter with the De partment of State. "Of course, my father is a Hebrew," he said, in answer to a question as to his race, it having been suggested that Oscar Hamm^rstein had denied that, "and he's never been at all desirous of denying or concealing it. " New Yorkers are well acquainted with the personality of the whimsical im presario '»scar Hammerstein has been active in the life of the city for many years, and his peruliarities and also bis activities in the world of music and enter tainment are a wH] known story. Ever since h*> came to this country in I^'V; and worked as a cigarmaker he has been making money. Not long after he came over he established a trade journal for the tobacco industry, and in 1868 began to write some comedies H<> went extensively into Harlem r^al estate, is which he mad* money, and he made a. fortune from a patent for moulding cigars. In the late 7<» he took the lease of the old "Windsor Theatre, in the Bowery, and ran it as a German playhouse. To the Gel mania Theatre in 14th street he :- ight Heinrich Conried, a young Ger man actor and afterward his ereat rival In thf- operatic war.

The Harlem Music Hall, the Columbus Thea tre, the Manhattan Music Hal!, which was afterward Koster & Bials; the Olympia. now the New York Theatre: the Victoria, the Republic, afterward Belasco's. were snmp of the theatres he built before his final effort in this line, the Manhattan Opera House in .'{4 th street. He is more than sixty year? old now, but ia still a fighter, and has furnished as much good "copy" to the newspapers through his eccentricities, as any other man in New York.

After annual threats to get out of opera here and in Philadelphia — at one time a lawyer in Philadelphia said that his client.

St. Petersburg. June 9.— Further advices were received here to-day telling of the continuance of the organized search for Jews illegally residing in the province of Smolensk.

WHITMAN TAKES A HAND Judg-s Insists on Knowing Char acter of Report — Fore man Refuses to Divulge It. PART OF JUDGE O'SULLIVAN'S CHARGE TO GRAND JURY. The main object, gentlemen, which I desire you to keep in mind throughout your Investigation is the uncovering not alone of isolated offences but of an or ganization, if any such exists, for a traffic in the bodit;; of women. You should make your Investigations suf ficiently broad to cover not only pres ent condltli ns but also conditions exist ing in the past, within the star ate of limitati''!:.- I chargi you that it la your duty to pur.-ue this inquiry into every channel open to you and to present to the court the facts found by you. If in your in ▼estigation you find facts warranting In dictment, it i.- your duty to present such indictment. If organized traffic In women exists in this city the law is adequate to end it and punish the person.- engaged in it. if such .traffic does not exist, your in vestigation should put an end to sensa tional slanders against the city of New- York. Tho investigation of the so-called white slave" traffi' in this city by the grand jury of which John D. Rockefeller, jr.. is foreman, was marked yesterday by a heated controversy between Mr. Rockefeller and Judge O'Sullivan. of General Besaions, as to the acceptance by the court of a presentment dealing with the subject of the investigation. District Attorney Whitman took part in the discussion, during which Judge O'Sullivan pounded his desk, and at one time refused to permit Mr. Rockefeller ... 1011/ Judge O'Sullivan refused to accept the document offered by Mr. Rockefeller un til he had had an opportunity to ex amine it. and adjourned the grand jury for two weeks, in which interval he in structed the foreman to confer with him. |fr Rockefeller later headed a commit tee of three from the grand jury, which called upon Judge O'Sullivan in his chambers, but refused to display the presentment. It was reported that the grand jury had unanimously \oted, after the scene in court, to refuse to give the presentment to Judge O'Sullivan except in open court, as originally planned. Presentment Kept Secret. What the presentment contains is known only to the jurors. District At torney Whitman -aid last night that he did not know its contents, but believed Judge O'Sullivan had made a grave mis take in refusing to receive the grand jury's report of its findings. He referred to Judge O*Snßlvan's charge last Janu ary, when the grand jury began its in vestigation. In view of his instructions at tftal time quoted above. Judge O'Sullivan'a position caused considerable comment aboul the Criminal Courts Building. Th<- controversy began when the grand jury filed into court and Mr. Rockefeller said that it had finished its investiga tion and sought to be discharged. Then he offered the presentment, or report, of its work. Judge O'Sullivan expressed his surprise. -The work whi.ii the grand jury has been doing Is of such a nature." said the Judge, "that the curt must under stand, before It receives anything in the nature of a presentment, something of the character of that document." He then ordered the grand jury to ad journ for two weeks, and told Mr. Rockefeller, as foreman, .-r a committee of the grand Jury to confer with him or District Attorney Whitman before the acceptance of the presentment. Mr. Whitman Interrupted to say that he would not look at the presentment until it had been filed. No Right to Se« It. Says Whitman. "I have no right to see it before it is filed unless the grand jury instruct me or ask me to see it." he said. "It can be amended or expunged from the rec ord only after it has t*en filed in the manner prescribed by law. My sugges tion would be that it be filed to-day." -But it cannot be filed until it is ac cepted." replied Judge O'Sullivan. 'and I will not accept the document as a presentment until I know Its contents. "While there has been one line of in vestigation submitted to this grand Jury. I understand that it has gone off into' different lines, investigating mat ters of a kindred nature, but whether they are relevant to the question sub mitted the court does not know." •Well. I want to make my position , Uar." said Mr. Whitman. "With all re spect to your honor, the only way that you can examine this presentment, which represents the deliberations of the grand Jury, is to allow the presentment to be filed "I do not. understand that you have a right to P ee it until it has been filed. The. rations of the grand jury are sa cred. When th* 1 presentment is filed, then the court and the District Attorney and the public have the right to know its contents, and U*en I am willing to go over it."

BOY CURED OF TETANUS Philadelphia Physicians Use Ger man Discovery. [ By T°!erraph to Th*> Tribune ] Philadelphia. June 9.— Cured of tetanus by a new treatment used for the first time in this city. John Smith, twelve years old. was discharged from the West Philadelphia Homoeopathic Hospital to day. He was admitted to the hospital eight weeks ago. and at that time it wa3 thought he could live only a few hours. The treatment used in effecting the cure is the discovery of a German physi cian. It consists of injections of mag nesium sulphate in conjunction with the antitoxin treatment. These injections are made into the spinal column, where the fluid reaches the nerve centre, re lieving the violent spasms which usually cause death, ln the case of Smith forty drops of magnesium sulphate were in- Jected at a time, the dose being gradu ally decreased. Drs. Charles Fox and William C. Pien c took • harge <>f the case and ad ministered the magnesium sulphate. CONNAUGHT FOR CANADA King Georges Uncle to Succeed Earl Grey as Governor General. London. June 9—ln9 — In accordance with the wish of the late King Edward, the Duke of Connaught will succeed Earl Grey as the Governor General of Can ada, probably next spring. Earl Grey sailed from Canada to-day. The duke is first to make a visit t« South Africa for the purpose of opening the new Parliament. The Duke of Connaught. brother of Kins: Edward, has been frequently mentioned as Ear! Grey's probable successor. The ap pointment has been greatly desired by Ca nadians on account of th* great social in fluence of the duke. Then. too. the Con servatives have looked on the possible ap pointment as a distinct tightening of the bond between the Dominion and the em pire. It had been said, however, that a man who had declined a throne would hardly care for a mere governor generalship. In 1&99 he and his son, Prince Arthur, re nounced their claims to the throne of Saxe- Coburg and Goths in favor of the Duke of Albany. In July of last ear the Duke of Connaught retired from the inspector gen eralship of the Mediterranean forces on the ground of "the ineffective nature of the work and the useless expense to the nation Involved therein." After this retirement the duke and his family, consisting of the duehfßß and their children. Prince Arthur and Princess Pa tricia, went to East Africa on a shooting expedition. The duke is sixty years old and baa seen more than forty >ears of service in the British army. FARMER BOY SUICIDE OVER LOVE. Amsterdam. N V .

HARRISON Refuses to See Nsw York Con gressman, Who Calls at White House. OTHERS IN PARTY RECEIVED Cause of Rebuff Harrison 3 Attack on President and Attorney General in Glavis Case. [From The Tribune Bureao-I Washington. June 9.— President Taft severely snubbed Representative Francis Burton Harrison to-day, although no ons would have been the wiser had not Mr. Harrison imagined he had a grievance and told his troubles to representatives of the press. The reason for the »nub was Mr. Harrison's attack on the Presi dent and the Attorney General in con nection with the opinion on the Glavt3 charges which Mr. kersham submit ted to the President on September 11, but the completed text of which he wrote up at his convenience and dated as of the day when it was delivered. The occasion of the incident was the appearance at the White House si a delegation of prominent Hebrews, ac companied by Representatives Gold fogle. Keliher and Harrison. The President received the delegation and the first named Representatives, but . when the time came for the visitors to enter the President's ro< .1 Mr Harri son was sent for by the secretary to the j President, who explained that because of the bad faith Mr. Harrison exhibited m cennection with the Wickersham opinion the President did not care to receive him. Mr. Norton suggested, however, . that Mr. Harrison could remain in the secretary's office for a few minutes, and ■ 1 then rejoin his friends, and no one would ever know of the incident. To this Mr. Harrison assented. When Mr. Harrison returned to the Capitol, however, he de cided to make the incident public A3 I Representative Goldfogle. who made the ; presentations, and Representative Keii her. who accompanied the delegation, are ■ loth Democrats, there can be no sug gestion of partisan discrimination in con nection with the affair. Mr. Harrison's Accusation. At the time when the Attorney Gen eral sent to the Ballinger-Pinchot in vestigating committee the explanation of the date of his opinion on the Glavta charges. Mr. Harrison, it will be recalled, gave t/> the pres3 a statement la which he characterized the explanation a.- "a confession" and charged the President and the Attorney General with furnish ing to Congress "misleading informa tion." as a member of Congress with numer ous dealings with the government Mr.. Harrison knew, of course, that it is a practice of everyday occurrence for the law officers of the government to furnish opinions verbally, cr in the rough, to re duce them to writing at. their conveni ence, and then to file or print the writ ten opinion as of the date when it was rendered, so that, in the estimation of the President, there was no excuse for the manifest attempt of the New York i Representative to mislead the public ! and impugn the good faith of the Execu tive and the Attorney General. The appointment for the presentation of the delegation # of Hebrews was made by A' ting ' Secretary Forster £ some days ago, and when the Presi dent approved the engagement he was not advised that Mr. Harrison expected to accompany Messrs. Keliher and Goldfogle to the White House. The ; President is entirely tolerant of ordinary efforts to make partisan campaign ma ' terial, but when such attempts go to the length of that made by Representa- I tive Harrison, and seek to take ad ; vantage of the natural ignorance of tha : public of methods of long standing in i the transaction of public business to ere ' ate a false and misleading impression regarding the good faith of the Execu- I tive and a member of his Cabinet. Mr. Taft believes the bounds of decency have 1 been passed, and that those who stoop to such expedients deserve no considera tion at the White House. As is well known, members of Congress constantly make speeches, materially re vise them and then cause the- to b« ! printed as of the day on which they were first delivered, and even members of the Supreme Court not infrequently, after i reading their opinions in court, retain j their notes for further revision, although it has never been suggested that they i should bear the date on which they are ! finally completed.
