St. Paul, Oct. 23.According to St. Paul and Minneapolis bankers the time has passed when conditions such as are reported from New York can have any immediate effect upon the financial situation in the Northwest.

Long, the nature writer, was asked if he had anything to say about President Roosevelt's recent bear hunt in the Louisiana canebrakes. "Oh, yes, a little to say and a lot to think," was his reply. "It's a fine specimen of Mr. Roosevelt's brand of nature study. He went into the cane brakes, according to accounts, with six or eight professional hunters, two sur geons, sixty odd dogs, unnumbered camp followers, camera men and a few dispatch bearers to carry out ac counts of his heroism to a breathless world. "There was hullaballoo enough to scare any bear from here to Texas. Some of them are probably running yet. Bears are timid, you know they hate noise and excitement. It's a wonder that he got one bear that he ever saw a fresh tiack. All the able bodied bears skidooed at the first up roar so dear to the president's heart. Those that remained were cubs or in valids that lacked either the sense or the strength to get out. "If there Is a real hunter down there now, a man that knows how to go into the woods quietly and hunt, he would probably get all the bears he wanted. But he would have to leave tho brass band and the applauding gal lery behind and that Mr. Roosevelt cannot do. Hence his one poor she bear."

New York, Oct. 23.The Knicker bocker Trust company, the second largest trust company in New York city, with deposits amounting to about $60,000,000, closed its doors at 12:30 p. m. following a steady run ol* per sons who called to withdraw their deposits. The company officials de clared that the suspension of payment was only temporary. The closing of the doors of the In stitution was attended with sensa tional scenes at its maiu banking room and the Harlem bianch. Depositors who crowded the rooms clamoring for their money were insistent that they be permitted to withdraw even a few dollars and when this request was re fused many refused to leave the build ing. Police assistance was necessary to preserve order. At the main office, Fifth avenue and Thirty-fourth street, after the doors were closed the crowd surged its way inward. The police forced them back to the street again and from that time a guard was kept in front of the entrance. The stock market was very weak and declined sharply in spite of early efforts made to support prices.

UNABLE TO MEET DEMANDS Reason Knickerbocker Trust Company Suspended Payment. New York, Occ. 23.Following a persistent run at the main and branch offices of the Knickerbocker Trust company the officials of the company at 12.30 p. m. decided to refuse fur ther payment to depositors because of inability to secure currency in suffi cient amount. The Knickerbocker Trust company has deposits of over $60,000,000 and assets of more than $65,000,000. About 300 depositors were in the main office of the Knickerbocker Trust company awaiting their turn to withdraw their deposits when Second Vice President Joseph P. Brown came out of his office and announced to the depositors that payments on checks had been suspended temporarily be cause of the inability of the company to obtain currency fast enough to meet the demands. At Mr. Brown's announcement there was a rush of de positors to the telephones and the acquaintances of the officers of the trust company appealed to them to be allowed to withdraw small amounts. These appeals were refused. An attempt was made to close the doors against the depositors who were waiting outside the office, but they made a dash for the doors and forced their way past the men on guard and into the office. Police were then sta tioned at the doors. A detail of police was required to clear the Harlem branch of the Knickerbocker Trust company. The crowd insisted on having their money and refused to leave the banking room until forced out by the police. Officers of the Knickerbocker Trust company said that the company had paid out between $7,000,000 and $8,- 000,000 to depositors during the day. ASSISTS SEVERAL BANKS.

POLICIES TO BE CONTINUED President Again Refers to Stock Mar ket Troubles. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 23.President Roosevelt, in his speech at the Audi torium here, said: "There has been trouble in the stock market in the high financial World during the past few months. The statement has frequently been made that the policies for which I stand, legislative and executive, are responsible for that trouble. NgW, gentlemen, these policies of mine can e jummed up in one .brief sentence. mg^immmmmmamm**mmammmmmm*mjW They represent Ihe effort to punish successful dishonesty. I doubl if these policies have had any material effect in bringing about the present trouble, but if they have it will not alter in the slightest degree my determination that for the remaining sli^on months of my term these policies shall be persevered in unswervingly. "If to arouse that type of civic man hood in our nation It were necessary to suffer any temporary commercial depression I should consider the cost but small. All we have done has been to unearth the wrongdoing. It was not the fact that It was unearthed that did the damage. All I did was to turn on the light. I am responsible for turning on the light, but I am not responsible for what the light showed It is impossible to cut out a cancer without making the patient feel for a few days rather sicker than he felt before.

Our responsi bility was great, as the state never had so much money on hand as now. Counting the general fund, the canal fund, that of the inheritance tax, the forest preserve money and all the smaller sums we have in charge as officials about $18,000,000 deposited in state depositories all over the state, about $9,000,000 being in institutions in this city." WHEAT DOWN THREE CENTS Other Grain and Provisions Depressed in Sympathy. Chicago, Oct. 23.The wheat mar ket opened very weak, with prices down nearly 2 cents.

The Chicago stock market was also weak, National Biscuit being off 1% and Chicago Subway being down 2%. IN ALL DIRECTIONS. Balloons in Cup Race Scattered by Variable Winds.

GREETED BY IMMENSECROWD City Filled With Visitors From a Ra dius of One Hundred Miles and the Chief Executive Is Accorded One Continuous Ovation. Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 23.Never be fore in its history was Nashville so elaborately decorated as it is to give welcome to President Roosevelt. Bun ting, flags, banners and pictures of the president are almost on every house in the up town section of the city, which is crowded with people from a radius of 100 miles, and the reception he is being accorded is of the old fashioned kind. When the special train bearing the president and his party arrived it was greeted with the booming of cannon, ringing of bells, blowing of whistles and the cheering of thousands of per sons who had gathered to do honor to the president. Tho president was met at the depot by a reception com mittee, who were introduced by Gov ernor Patterson, after which Mr. Roosevelt and tho-^e accompanying him were escorted from the train to their carriages. The parade was then foiined, the chief executive's carriage heading the procession. As the procession proceeded through the decorated streets the president re ceived one continued ovation from the thousands that lined the sidewalks. One feature of the parade that was particularly pleasing to Mr. Roosevelt was the presence of the company of gray and grizzled Confederate veter ans in line. It was a compliment which he deeply appreciated. On Sixth avenue, near the state capitol, the parade was brought to a full stop in order to enable the presi dent to view the tomb of President James K. Polk, after which the march to Rynian auditorium was continued. Greeted by Immense Audience. As the president entered the audi torium an immense audience arose and gave him a welcome that he will not soon forget. Governor Patterson, in a brief address, then welcomed the president, who responded. President Roosevelt, at the conclu sion of his address, immediately left the auditorium in an automobile for The Hermitage, the home of President Andrew Jackson, twelve miles from this city, followed by a long line of carriages and automobiles containing citizens. On the arrival of the party at The Hermitage mansion the president and party were shown abo^t the building and grounds and then proceeded to the tomb of President Jackson, where President Roosevelt and others made brief addresses. Mr. Roosevelt and those accom panying the official party then began the journey to the president's train at The Hermitage station, the road pass ing the Tennessee Soldiers' home. At this point the Confederate veterans received the president in line and requested that he favor them with his autograph in a register specially pre pared for the occasion. His signature was written in this book with a quill designed and made at their instance for this feature of the programme. On leaving the Soldiers' home the president and party proceeded to Her mitage station, where they boarded their special train and left immediate ly for Chattanooga. Trust Conference Opens.
