Reception Accorded Him at Bat
Helm Was Well Planned
MAKES SEVERAL SPEECHES
___
Labor Day Was Generally Celebrated
Throughout the State Where the
Train Stopped and Great
Crowds Turned Out.
East Northfleld, Mass., September 1.—
President Roosevelt today concluded his
tour throuah Vermont at Brattleboro and
Is spending the night here at Northfleld.
The reception acorded him at Brattleboro
was among the prettiest, best conducted
and most enthusiastic he has received
In his tour of New England. Upon ar
riving at the station he was met by a
company of Infantry he&ded by a band
and escorted to the common, where he
delivered a brief addresa In which he
spoke of Abraham Lincoln as the man
of the hour In the great civil war.
The President's progress through Brat
tleboro was a continued ovation. On
the line of march his carriage was
stopped 111 front of the leading hotel and j
from the balcony men, women and chil
dren showered loose flowers and bouquets
upon him. Arriving at the common where
he delivered his address the pavilion steps
were strewn with flowers by little girls
who were drawn up on both sides.
Labor Day Celebrated.
Labor Day was generally celebrated
throughout the state wherever the train
stopped, holiday erowdB were out to ex- j
tend the President a welcome. The heat 1
was excessive, but the President seemed I
to suffeer by little from Its effects. His j
remarks on the subject of labor were .
confined mostly to a tribute to the peo- 1
pie of Vermont and he expressed hla
pleasure at being greeted by the repre
sentatives of organized labor, because he
said, the typical American la the man
who works.
The President began the day's Journey !
at Burlington, reaching that city from j
Shelburne, the home of Dr. W. Seward
Webb. After a drive about the city the
presidential train started southward, |
stops being made at Vergennes, Mid- |
dlesbury, Brandon, Proctor, Rutland, j
Ludlow, Bellows FallB, Chester and Brat- !
tleboro and his Vermont trip was ended.
He crossed Into Massachusetts early In
the evening and went to Norfolk to re- ,
main tonight as the guest of William R.
Moody, son of the noted evangelist
Dwight L. Moody at the Northfleld ho- j
tel. The President will go to Round Top :
In the morning to visit Mr. Moody's
Grave.
The President Bpoke at every stop to
day, hut most of his addresses were
Brief. That of greatest Import was the
one delivered at Proctor, the home of ,
Senator Proctor, wherein he defined his
Idea of the Monroe doctrine.
The most unique speech of the day was
that delivered In the auditorium here.
Starts on i our.
Rutland, Vt., September 1.—President
Roosevelt after a stay of thirty-six hours |
on the shores of Lake Champlain as the j
guest of Secretary Leslie M. Shaw and '
of Dr. Seward Webb, resumed his tour
of New England today. He reached Bur
lington from Shelburne farms, Dr. Webb's
home, during the forenoon and, was given
an hour’s drive through this city. Gov
ernor Stlckney and Mayor Hawley acted
as hosts. The drive extended to Green
Mountain cemetery, where the President
viewed the grave of Ethan Allen and
Battery park. He did not speak here
before noon. Crowds cheered the Pres
ident everywhere he wrent and at the sta
tion there was a large gathering to wit
ness his departure. Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw joined the President at
the station. Several stops not scheduled
wej*e made. At Vergennes a very brief
speech was delivered. The President re
ferred to the fact that this was Y»abor
Day and said that the people of Vermont
from the top down had worked hard and
it was that which had made the state
what it is. Other stops were made at
Middlebury and Brandon, at each of
which the President spoke briefly.
Presented With Flower*.
At Brandon three little girls dressed in
American flags cMmbed up on the rear
platform of the president’s car and pre
sented him with a beautiful flower piece
on behalf of the school children of the
town.
A half hour’s stop was made at Proc
tor. the home cf Senator Proctor. The
president delivered an address from tho
steps of the car porch and In the course
of it made some significant utterances
on the subject of the Monroe doctrine.
Also the entire population of town !
heard the President speak. He took I
lunch with Senator Proctor and his son,
F. D. Proctor, speaker of the state house
of representatives.
Rutland was the next stop. Tho spe
cial train reached here at 12:30. He was
greeted by a crowd of 6000 people u^l
from a stand in tho square delivered a
brief address. Tho stop here was of
twenty minutes and the president re
sumed his tour for Bellows Falls.
President at Rutland.
At Portland, Vt., Senator Proctor in
troduced the President, saying:
“Neighbors and friends: For the third
time, a President of the United States
honors us with his presence and he will
speak from this plaform. I do not ex
pect to have the hon<»r and the pleasure
of Introducing this one three or four
years hence when he Is serving his sec
ond term " (loud applause),
After thanking people for their greet
ing the President said:
“We believe in the Monroe doctrine,
not as a means of uggression at all. It
does not mean that we are aggressive
toward any power. It means merely that
us the biggest power in this continent
we remain steadfastly under the Presi
dency of Monroe, through John Quincy
Adams—the principle that this continent
must be not treated as a subject for po
litical colonisation by any European
power. As I say, that is not an aggres
sive doctrine, It is a doctrine of peace,
A doctrine of defense, a doctrine to se
cure the chance on this continent for
the United States here to develop peace
ably along their own lines. Now, we
have formulated that doctrine. If our
formulation consists simply of state
ments on the stump or on paper, they
are not worth the breath that utters
them, or the paper on which they are
written. Remember that the Monroe
doctrine will be respected as long as we
have a first-class efficient navy and not
very much longer.
A Contemptible Creature.
f‘in private life he who asserts some
thing, says what he is going to do and
dous not back it up, is always a contemp
tible creature, and as a nation the last
lhipg we can afford to do is to take a po
sition which we do not intend to make
N0Sg^£i!s BILL
St Paul, Minn., September t—The an
swer of the Northern Securities company
and President J. J. Hill In the suit In
the United States court to prevent the
consolidation of the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern railroads, was filed In
court In this city this afternoon. It Is
a general denial of the complaint.
This Is the suit brought by Attorney
General W. B. Douglass In tho name of
the state of Minnesota. The principal
answers are those of the Northern Secu
rities company and of President J. J. Hill,
but answers also were filed by attorneys
for the Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern railroad companies, these latter
differing very little from the main an
swers, which follow tho general lines of
of the panswer In the suit brought by
the Federal government, although dif
fering on some important points.
Defendants deny that the Northern Se
curities company has ever conducted any
business In Minnesota, or had any place
of business or owned any property In tho
state and the ! all ways of the property
of the Eastern Railroad company of Mlh
nesota are operated by virtue of a lease
to the Great Northern Railroad company.
They also deny that James J. Hill was,
on November 13, 1901, or that he has ever
been, the owner of or In the possession
or control of, or had on said day, or at
any time, subject to his direction or
disposition, more than a majority, or
more than a portion far less than a ma
jority of the company’s stock of the
Great Northern company.
Never In Minnesota.
They deny tjiat the Northern Pacific
company ever became a corporation of,
or within, the state of Minnesota, or that
it ever became subject to the laws thero
of, except by filing a copy of Its article*?
with the secretary of state and comply- I
lag with the statutes relating to tho ad
mission to the state of railroad compa
nies organised under the laws or ?*ther
states.
They also deny that the Northern Pa
cific company's lines have since the or
ganization of the securities company
been operated subject to the dictation or
control of the officers of that company,
and deny that the board of directors of
the Northern Pacific company when the
bill was filed, or at any time since, have
been the pereone stated In said bill; on
the contrary, the board of directors of
the Bald company was when the bill was
filed, and ever slnoe has been composed
as follows; Edward H. Harrlman, Wil
liam P, Clough, Brayton Ives, D, Willis
James, John 8. Kennedy, Daniel 8. Do
mont, William Rockefeller, Charles
Steele, Samuel Bpencer, James Stillman,
Bben B. Thomas, Hamilton MoTwombly,
all of Now York City, Charles S. Miller,
St. Paul; Samuel Rea of Philadelphia.
They deny that the settled and publlo
policy of the state of Minnesota has been
to prohibit In any way the consolidation
of competing or parallel lines of railroad,
and that until 1674, which was longer
after the land grants mentioned and the
construction of a large proportion of the
railroads of both defendant companies,
there was no law In Minnesota on tho
subject, and they deny that there Is or
ever has been any policy or law In said
state, except Buch policy as Is expressed
In the statutes referred to in the bill;
and as to these statutes, the defendants
say they are In violation if the constitu
tion of the United States, and they fur
ther say that these statutes. If otherwise
of any validity, have no application to
the acts complained of by the plaintiff In
said bills, and are controlled and made
of no effect by other legislation of Minne
sota or of the United States.
They admit the organization of the
securities company and that It was or
ganized for the purpose set forth In Its
articles, and for no other purpose what
ever. They admit that after the forma
tion of the securities company and on
November 22, 1901, that company did re
quest for the Great Northern Pacific to
purchase such of their shares as should
be offered within sixty days from tho
date at |180 per share and pay therefor
In shares of Its own capital stock at
parity. Except as aforesaid they say
that the securities company has not of
fered or sought to purchase any stock
of either of said railroad companies In ex
change for Its own shares.
They say that the securities company
has also purchased for cash a large
amount of the shares of the defendant
railroad companies and of other com
panies.
They deny that James J, Hill waa at
any time tho principal controlling stock
holder of the Great Northern company
and say that while said James J. Hill
was for a short time nominally a director
of the Northern Pacific company, he
never cast any vote as such. The defend
ants deny all manner of unlawful com
bination and confederacy.
good. Bragging and boasting In private
life are almost always the signs of a
weak man, and a nation that Is strong
does not need to have Its public men
boast or brag on Its account. Least of
all does a self-respecting nation allow Its
public representatives to threaten or
menace or Insult another power. Our at
titude toward all powers must be one of
such dignified courtesy and respect as
we Intend that they shall show ub in re
turn. We must be willing to give the |
friendly regard that we exact from them.
We must no more wrong them than we
must submit to wrong-doing ny them.
But when we take a position, let us re
member that our holding it depends upon
ourselves: depends upon our showing that
we have the ability to hold It.”
After speaking of the part Vermont has
played In the country's history through
Admiral Dewey and Clarke the President
continued:
"Shame to us If we assert the Monroe
doctrine, and If our assertion shall bo
called In question show that we have
only made an idle boast; that we are not
prepared to back up our words by
deeds." (Loud applause.)
Aims of Summer Schools.
East Northfleld Mass., September 1.—
In his speech here tonight President
Roosevelt said:
"Here, near the seat of the summer
school for young men founded by Dwight
L. Moody, I naturally speak on a sub
ject suggested to me by the life of Mr.
Moody and by the alms of the summer
school. In such a school It seems to me
there are two texts specially worthy of
emphasis. One is 'Be ye doors of the
word and not hearers only,’ and the
other Is 'Not slothful In business, fervent
In spirit, serving the Lord.'
"A republic of free men Is pre-eminent
ly a community In which there is need
for the actual exercise and practical ap
plication of both the milder and the
stronger virtues. Every good quality,
every virtue and every grace has Its
place and Is of use In the great scheme of
cieation. But It Is a mere truism to say
that at certain times and In certain places
there Is pre-eminent need for a given set
of virtues.
"But virtue by Itself Is not strong
enough, or anything like enough.
Strength must be added to It and the de
termination to use that strength. The
good man who is Ineffective is not able
to make his goodness of much account
to the people as a whole. No matter how
much a man hears the» word, small Is
the credit attached to him If he falls to
be a doer also. In serving the Lord he
must remember that he needs to avoid
sloth In his business as well as to culti
vate fervency of spirit.”
Labor Day at Huntingdon.
Huntington, W. Va., Beptember 1.—
Labor Day was celebrated here today on
the grandest scale In the history of the
city, over BOOO persons marching In the
parade. Governor White delivered an ad
dress in which he advised the laboring
men to Join the state militia, but this
was greeted with a storm of protests
from the union laborers. The governor
undertook to explain the necessity of
sending troops to the New River coal
field, but his explanation received no
applause.
Albert Champion Wins.
Boston, September 1.—Albert Cham
pion beat Harry Kikes and Will Stin
son In a 28 mile motor-paced race at
Charles Klver park today, Up to the
last mile It was an exceedingly close
fight, but at that point both Stinson's
and Bikes’ motors went wrong and the
two rode unpaced. When Champion
finished Bikes managed to pull into
second place Just ahead of Stinson,

TAFT'S REMARKS
START NEW IDEA
PLAN WILL PROBABLY BE SUB
MITTED TO CONGRESS BY
WHICH LABOR SITUATION IN
PHILIPPINES CAN BE HELPED.
Washington, September 1. — It la the
opinion of the war department that
Governor Taft's remarks at the board of
trade banquet In Manila yesterday re
specting the employment of labor on
plantations will form the basis of a sug
gestion to congress at the next session,
that the act extending the Chinese exclu
sion lawB to the Philippines be made. It
is contemplated to remove the Ironclad
restriction which now exists and clothe
the Philippine commission with power to
regulate the entrance of Chinese labor.
The commission Itself already has given
some attention to this subject, and It is
believed that Professor Jenks' Investiga
tions into the labor problem In the Straits
Settlement and elsewhere In the orient
meet with Its approval.
The proposed regulation, It is sard, will
look to a wisely regulated system of ad
missions of Chinese as plantation labor
ers under sufficient bonds In each case,
under proper systems of Identification
and a condition that they shall leave the
Philippines after certain specified periods
of time. Such regulations as exist In
Hawaii for the proper care of the cool
ies would be Incorporated. Governor
Taft's representations on this subject
yesterday were In answer to pressing de
mands from the American chambers of
commerce and employers of labor In the
Philippines for relief from the conditions
which, it is alleged, has hurt trade.

Guns in Fine Shape lo Meet
Naval Attack
OFFICERS BUSY WITH PUNS
Mott Interesting and Important Fea
ture of Maneuvers Will Be Dem
onstration Touching Outbreak of
Hostilities In Southern Waters.
Washington, September 1.—TBe guns In
the Long Island forts are In fine shape to
meet the attacking movement of the
navy, according to reports received at the
war department from General Crbzler,
chief of army ordnance, who has been
making a tour of the army defenses to
observe the preliminary target practice
and the workings of the guns. In a letter
received at the par department the gen
eral states the guns at Fort Wright
functioned In an especially gratifying
manner. The big 12-inch guns were fired
with both practice and full charges and
gave a good account of themselves. The
three 6-Inch guns were given some Inter
esting practice work at ranges of from
8000 to 4000 yards firing at a moving tar
get. Each of them fired thirty-three
rounds with great rapidity and the target
was entirely destroyed. In one of the
carriages a leak developed, but the acci
dent was not thought serious enough to
stop the firing. From Fort Wright Gen
eral Crosier proceeded to Fort Adams
and thence to Newport to observe the
work at those points.
Naval Officers to Work.
Even while the combined maneuvers
are In progress at the eastern end of
Long Island sound, a body of naval offi
cers Is steadily at work planning the de
tails for the winter naval operations at
Culebra Islands. The problems there
presented differs essentially from those
now being practically determined on the
New England coast. It is true that there
will be a search problem such as preced
ed the Joint maneuvers now going on,
but tn the West Indian waters the chase
will bo on a much grander scale, for
probably the combined command made
up of the fleets from the North Atlantic,
the European and the South Atlanta sta
tions will engage in the pursuit of the
flying foe.
But the most interesting and Important
feature of the work will be the practical
demonstration of certain meortes that
have been evolved by the naval general
board touching initial operations In caBe
of an outbreak of hostilities in southern
waters. Culebra Island lies on the ex
treme edge of the farthest circle of de
fense and It Is regarded as the most feas
ible base for the operations of a United
States defensive fleet.
Place Not Fortified.
The place Is not fortified as yet and
ma y not be taken over by the army and
fortified for several years. So the prob
lem presented Is the rapid occupation
and fortification of the Island by the
naval acting single handed on the theory
that the army in the throes of organiza
tion cannot meet the emergency. The
Dixie, the Panther, and another com
bined transport and cruiser will be laden
with all of the material and guns needed
for the Island and kept In waiting at the
Norfolk navy ayrd, ready for the word.
That word may come upon the departure
from Europe of the European squadron
and the effort will be made to reacn
Culebra to land guns and marines and
generally place the Island In condition
to resist a naval assault without the as
sistance of a defensive fleet.
If It is shown that this plan will work,
then It would appear that a hostile fleet
could not pass Culebra Into the Caribbean
of gulf without Incurring the danger of
having Its communications cut oft by
even a small United States fleet with
submarine* and a monitor or two which
could find safe refuge In case of need
In the defense of Culebra. When this
problem Is worked out the fleets will be
combined and enter upon am extensive
