“TEDDY” GIVES ADVICE
TO ASSEMBLED PASTORS.
NEW YORK. May lS.-Former Presl
: dent Theodore Roosevelt told about
| 1,000 clergymen yesterday that mate
I rlallsm and paganism wcro a serious
menace to the welfare of the United
States; that men who blow up the
buildings of capitalists at the behest of
labor leaders are murderers, and that,
unless something is done to remedy
present conditions, the results will be
dire.
The clergymen were members of the
Federation of Churches and their
guests. "This materialism and pagan
ism will ruin this country If we are not
careful," he said. "That is our great
est danger today, and it is the first
duty of you gentlemen to got together
and take steps to remedy this condi
tion. You must do it, regardless of
your creeds or your denominations."
Colonel Roosevelt gave the dominies
some advice concerning preaching. He
said it was just as much their duty to:
decry crime committed by working {
people as it was their duty to ex
coriate high financiers and the rich.

the first blow. Both men were held

CHICAGO, May 17,—Rains in Russia
today weakened wheat prices here, j

be highly favorable, and a fresh esti
mate put the United States export sur
plus ns high as 116.000.000 bushels.
Furthermore, there was a forecast of
ahowers tonight in the Dakotas and
Minnesota. For a while selling was
general. Later, however, offerings dried
up and a reaction followed. Opening
prices were % to % lower. July started
at 88% to 88%, a decline of % to %, but
rallied to 88%f<j>%.
Unusual activity was witnessed in
cats. Prices rose sharply on account of
fear as to the effects of dry weather on
the growing grain. Shorts and local
speculators were somewhat strenuous
buyers. July opened the same as last
night to % higher at 32% to 32%, and
advanced to 34',».

after being depressed by wheat for a
time July started unchanged to >4 off

of 1 to 3 points in sympathy with
steady cables, and during the first few j
minutes sold about 3 to 7 points net !
higher, with new crop positions rela- |
lively firm on covering and some buy- j
tug by old crop bulls. Continued dry ;
weather o'er the greater part of the
South probably helped the new crop j
positions also, but there was continued !
liquidation by July longs and fluctua- ;
tions during the early trading was j
somewhat irregular.

PACKERS SEE CHANCE
IN “REASONABLE” CLAUSE.
Will Demand Reargument of
Their Demurrers.
CHICAGO, May 17.—Contending that
he United States Supreme Court's de
:ision in the Standard Oil ease, in
tffect, sustained the objections ad
vanced by the packers to the indict
ments against them, John S. Miller and
Jther attorneys for the beef trust, have
•nnounced that they would demand
Derniission for reargument of their de
murrers in Judge Carpenter's court.
N’otlce to that efTect was served on
United States District Attorney Sims.
The packers were indicted on charges
5f conspirtcy in restraint of trade.
They filed demurrers to the indictments
»nd took other steps to avoid being
wrought to trial on the charges. Judge
Carpenter's decision overruling their
demurrers apparently blocked their last
means of escaping trial. But the rul
ing of the Supreme Court that combina
tions in "reasonable" restraint of trade
nre legal, it is contended, applies to the
beef ca.se and may result tn the dismis
sal of the charges against them.

RAVAGED BY LEAF BEETLE.
CAMBRIDGE. Maes., May 17.—Five
of the historic elms in the Harvard Col

century old, can be saved. The col
lege has ordered 150 red oak saplings,
which will be planted to replace the
elms as fast as these are pulled down.
