Finds Mrs. Taft and Miss Helen
Haven't Arrived Yet Attends
Church Services.
"At home."
This 1b the greeting today at the
White House, as President Taft re
turned shortly after 7 o'clock this
morning to stay for awhile. Con
cluding a 15,000-mile Jaunt, the Pres
ident stepped from his private car at
the Union Station at 6:45 o'clock this
morning, on time to the second.
A breakfast alone, perusal of the
morning newspapers and attendance
at church occupied the President's
time this morning. This afternoon ho
may visit his office desk with Secre
tary Hilles.
Absence of a welcome from Mrs.
.Taft and Miss Helen Taft only
marred the return of the President to
his official residence. They have not
returned from Hot Springs, Va. They
were expected last' night, but no word
has been received at the White House
when they will arrive.
Comes Early. inMorning.
Before .full daylight with the street
lamps still twinkling, the CMof Ex
ecutive rode fronCthe'.Unloih Station
to the White House Irt'the official au
, tompblle., . There ...wra no welcoming
throngs 'at the station, because , of the
"early Jiour of the President's arrival.
Accompanied only by Major Archie
Butt, his chief aide, the President
reached the Executive Mansion about
7:16 o'clock. His first Inquiry was for
Mrs. Taft and his daughter, who had
planned to precede him In the homecoming-.
Secretary Hilles left his Chief at the
Union Station and went to his resi
dence for a family reunion, believing
a similar scene would be enacted at
the White House.
But only the White Houso attendants
were there to welcome him, and at 8
o'clock he had a hearty, but solitary,
breakfast.
Reads the Newspapers.
After the meal President Taft
plunged into a stack of newspapers,
which he took to his room, reading
until time for church at 11 o'clock.
The President heard Rev. F. L.
Marsh, for ten years a Unitarian divine
at Lincoln, Neb., preach at All Saints'
'church, !n the absence of Rev. Ulysses
G. B. Pierce. Mr. Marsh preached on
"Health and Religion "
The presence of Secret Service motor

Just returned from a drive of flftoen
miles. Instead of a wearisome Journdy
of more than 15,000 miles, in thirty
States, making 350 speeches to 6,

peared this morning. He Is In lino
fettle. No traces of the hardships of
flfty-seven days of almost continuous
travel are evident.
The home-coming of the Chief Execu
tive occurred at the conclusion of
"house cleaning."
Smell of paint and turpentine greeted
his nostrils this morning.
"Fresh paint" are the signs warning
him within the Executive Office.
Freshly- laundried curtains and new

SNUB BY CAPTAIN
SCHARGEOFD.A.R.
Women Warned Against As
sailing Mormons, in Pre-
senting,Silver,-.IUsSaid.
Reports of a "snub" by the Navy De
partment to prominent women of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
in their presentation lust Tuesday nt
New York of a sliver platter to the
new battleship Utah is a Htorj which
leaked out today In Washington.
Capt. W. S. Benson, of the Utah,
Is the naval ofilcer who has aroused
the wrath of the Daughters, who may
complain to .Secretary Meyer.
Ungracious acceptance of their sil
ver platter and censoring of their pres
entation speeches aie the grievances
reported against Captain Benson.
The story goes, as related by D. A. R.
women of Washington, that Captain
Benson declined to approve thelt prj
grain of presentation because of re
marks made against Mormon officials
prominent in presentation the day bo
fore of the official State service to the
new battleship.
Captain Benson, it is related, heard
the D. A. R. women Intended mak
ing cauBtlc reference to the Mormons
in their presentation speeches. There
upon he politely suggested, when they
boarded the Utah for their private sec
ond ceremony, ihat It would be In bad
taste to reflect upon those active in
tlie ceremonies the day before.
This Infuriated the D. A. R. ladies.
It is said, and they refused to carry
out their program beyond tendering
their silver platter. Most of them re
fused to go on deck for the ceremonies.
Mrs. C. E. Owen, of Utah, leader cf
the D. A. R. party from that State,
handed the platter to Captain Benson,
saying;
"Here Is our contribution to your
silver service."
"We thank ou, lHdles," Is the brief
reply made by Ca tain Bens m, It Is
said.
Practically all of the women rer.alned
below decks during even this brief ceie
mony, leaving in high dudgeon with
fiigld nods to the Utah's commander.
'I ho day previous: t'p State sllw-r

" Iwon't see a soul until this affair

This message sent through Detective

Mrs. Hose T. McFarland, who after
causing the arrest of her former colored
coachman, William H. Cook, for al
leged blackmail, barricaded tho doors
of her home at 2450 Eighteenth street

Screaming "They're after me!" "They
are killing me!" Roy C. Callahan, half
dressed, escaped from tho Government
Hospital for the Insane, and ran down
Alabama avenue in Anacostia this af
ternoon, terrorizing pedestrians.
This marks tho second escape from
the hospital wilhln twenty-four hours.
John Colvant, a colored man, was re
ported missing shortly beforo midnight,
but was returned a few hours lutcr af
ter wandering through the streeta.
Callahan was captured by Policeman
J. It. Harrover, at Tenth street and
Alabama avenue. He has been an In
mate of the hospital for nearly ten
years. Ho made his escape this morn
ing while on his way to breakfast. He
pleaded with the policeman to save him
from his enemies.
"Callahan Is not dangerous," declared
Dr. Glasscock,, of the Government Hos

form of illusions that he Is being pur
sued and persecuted."
Every week one of the members of
Callahan's family calls for him and
takes him home to spend Sunday. They
failed to come yesterday evening, so it
Is believed Callahan decided to take
matters In his own hands and go home.

Branding tho productions of the
"Irish PlayorB," which aro to bo pre
sented la Washington this weok, as
"a malignant travesty of Irish life
and religion," the AloyBlus Truth So
ciety, in circulars distributed In all
Catholic churches this morning, de
mands that patronage be withheld
from "a scurrilous misrepresenta
tion." Furthermore, officials of the
Georgetown and Catholic Universi
ties deny that they ever Invited the
"Irish Players" to appear nt the
schools to give lectures on tho life of
Ireland. To the claims of tho play
ers that they hold a telegram of Invi
tation from Mgr. Thomas P. Shahan,
rector of the Catholic University, the
reply Is made by Mgr. Shahao that if
such a telegram J In existence It Is
a forgery. The same statement comes
from Edmund A. WalBh, S. J., direc
tor of dramatics at Georgetown Uni
versity, with reference to a telegram
purported to hare been received from
Georgetown University. Mr. Walsh
said ho investigated the productions,
and is convinced that none of them
is creditable.
Two Plays Condemned.
The ones billed for the first two nights
are not considered so objectionable as
those for the remainder of the week.
.Those most vigorously condemned are
"The Birthright" and "The FiayDoy oi
tho Western World." It is asserted that
the players, when they presented these
shows in Dublin were hissed and vir
tually driven from the stage,
lng meetings for tho purpose of adopt
ing meetings for teh purpose of adopt
ing resolutions condemning tho plays
advertised for this week, and calling
attention to the leception given them In
other cities. . , , .
A special meeting of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians was held at Eagles
Hall, Sixth and B streets northwest,
this afternoon. P. J. Haltlgan, editor
of the National Hibernian, presented
resolutions condemning the plays.
A meeting of the United Irish Socie
ties was held thts morning, and the
matter is to be brought to the atten
tion of the Carroll Institute.
Hefore lravlntr for Rome with Mgr.
Dlomede Falconlo at noon today, Mgr.
Shahan took occasion to condemn the
productions, and to deny ever having
issued them an invitation to appear be
fore tho university which he heads.
Circular Distributed.
Representatives of the Aloyslus Truth
Society were at every Catholic church
this morning to distribute the circular
of condemnation. It reads as follovya:
"The attention of fair-minded
Washingtonlans is called to a most
malignant travesty of Irish life and
religion about to be presented upon
the stags of a local theater by the
Irish Players.' This traveling com
pany la advertised as 'coming from
the Abbey Theater, Dublin.' True,
but they came from Dublin followed
by the hisses and Indignation of an
outraged populace!
"A storm of bitter protest has been
raised In every city In which they
have presented their false and revolt
ing pictures of Irlt-li life. Dublin
peoplo never accepted the plays.
Thev virtually kicked them from the
stage. England, gave them no re
ception. The Pall Mall Gazette
thus denounces the so-called 'Irish
Plays:' 'They are photographs of
bestial deptavlty and Btupldlty '
"A Boston critic says; I never saw
anythlnc so vulgar, vile, and un
natural, so calculated to calumniate,
degrade, and defame a people and
all they hold sacred and dear as tho
plays of tho so-called "Irish Play
ers.' Nothing but hell-lnsplred In
genuity and a satanlc hatred of tho
Irish people and their religion could
suggest, construct, and influence the
production of such plays. On God's
earth the beastly creatures of the
plays never existed.
Calls Characters Vile.
"Among the vicious caricatures,
one In particular Is an open Insult to
every Intelligent theater-goer
"iae Playboy of the Western
World.' It contains blasphemous
references to God and the most sa
cied objects of life. All the char
acters, with the exception of one a
weakling glorify a peasant who had
the daring to kill his father, as ha
thought, and who boasts of It!
"Not nnn nf the characters reveala
a single good quality, and their only
moral motive is tear or ramer
motive Is
Rellly!
"Such are the productions which,
hissed from Dublin, hawked around
England by the "Irish Players" for
the delectation of those who wished
to see irishmen shown unfit for self
government, are now offered to the
people of Washington.
"Will Washington tolerate the HeT"
Manacer L. Stoddard Taylor, mana
ger of the Belasco Theater, where the
plays are to be presented, said.
