raees ot Mankind were rpnrmrntnl In i
the delegations that flowed In over four 1
railroads and that marched behind their
bands to the shade of tho big trees nt 1
Mr. Harding's home. They wero guided
here by Senators Medlll McCormlck of
Illinois and William Calder of New York
and John J. Lyons and John A. Stewart,
also of New York. Among the Italian
visiters was Frank Frugone, editor ot
an Italian newspaper of New Yom city,
and Dr. A. Chorna of Cleveland. Chi
cago sent a delegation ot more than
100 foreign born citizens, and there
were nearly as many from St Louts.
Many cities In New England and tho
State of New York wero represented.
Senator McCormlck made the speech
which presented the visitors to the Re

unwarranted and unauthorized meddling
of the Administration in tho affairs of

a broad conception of Amcrlcaalsm,

that hts remarks wero applicable to nil

Tho bomb outrage In Now York
makes some olllclnls fear that a dem
operation may bo made In the event
llmt seats nro again denied tn tho five
Hoclnllst Assemblymen reelected on
Thursday.
Whllo thoro Is uncertainty what
decision will bo reached In dealing
with tho Socialists, there Is no doubt
that many of tho officials have a bad
enso of fr.lght. Speaker Sweet sent
word this afternoon that he would or
Wvn lOfmorrtw to confer with tho
legislative leaders concerning tho pro
cedure In tho Socialist case. Indica
tions are that thcro Is about an even
chnnco that the five Assemblymen
will not bo permitted to enter tho

J, Sheldron Frost, Commissioner of
Public Safety, conferred to-lay with sev
eral oRlclals on the question ot establish
ing military or poiico guards In and
around tho Capitol In the next few days.
Several extra watchmen wero- assigned
to-day to the entrance to the Capitol, the
Governor's ofllce nnd tho Senate and As
sembly chambers.
One suggestion mado to-day "was that
the Ststo troopers, fully armed, be
thrown around tho Capitol. It la en
tirely probable that some wartime regu
lations will bo reestablished. Under that
elystem all persons were compelled' to en
ter aldo entrances and the big front and
rear stairways were closed and guarded
by Stato militiamen. Furthermore, all
persons not known werf, questioned be
fore being allowed to enter the Capitol
and to check at the doorways .all pack
ages and cameras. The omcloJs may
conclude that such extreme measures ao
not necessary now, but'lt( Is a fact ithat
they aro giving serlourf consideration "to
tho whole question nnd havo not deter
mined how far to go.
The Assembly chamber ond. galleries
probably will bo closed to visitors Mbn-,
dny night, when action is being taken on
tho Socialists. All the Capitol except
tho main street corridor through the
centro of the building was closc.d to
night, nnd the big lro"h gates lending
from tho corridors to the several stair
ways were locked and, boltedi while

Monday night what ts to bo done with

unre.d by somo of the lawmakers. ,
The Speaker said that several Assem
blymen had wired lo him asking to bo
excused from attending the Monday
night session, ns they had Important
business nt homo to keep them away.
Mr. Sweet's answer In every caso was a
demand that every Assemblyman bo In

Under the rules of, the Assembly the
Speaker has full authority to coompel

cretion to send a sergaant at arms after

power If It is necessary.

Somewhoro In New York yesterday
detectives heard n wild story. Thcro
was uo way, they snld, of verifying It.
A man who worked In ti restaurant
whero radicals havo been wont to
iiingroghtc Is said to havo relayed the
story. He Is alleged' to havo said that
nluch laughter and sneering occurred
In a certain comer of that restaurant
ilast Thursday night. Kycrybody In
the place Wits, dlscnuslii;; the Wall
street explosion and Its horrlblo toll
of thlriy-fonr deaths. Some diners
shrugged their shoulders, eloquently
lifted their upturned palms and said
that It was "too had."
"Wnlt Viilll Sunday."
Hut over In tho corner, where thero
were twenty men niul women laugh
ing and sneering, some ono said : "Hut
wait untlt Sunday," or something like
that.
So last night l'ollco Commissioner
Knrlght Issued orders to till precinct
coinnmnders to send detectives to all
churches to-day, to station policemen
around nil churches, public buildings,
homes of prominent men nnd city of
llclals. Jt may bo that nothing will
happen or nothing attempted. It may
ho that the Ited that hinted of more
bombs on Sunday was merely talking
for effect or trying to attract atten
tion .to himself (n not uncommon
characteristic of tho average restau
rant. Ited). However, no chances arc
to be taken.

Government property as the police are
