Double Charge Against Banker.
Vice President Griffin of the Colum

Paris, March 23.—In spite of minor
delays the adjustment of the strike of
the French telegraphers and postmen
that has disorganized the business
life of France for a week or more is
considered virtually in sight. Many
of the employes have returned to
work.
A meeting.attended by 5,000 strik
ers was held, when it was decided
that the recommendations of the
strike committee in the matter of a
settlement constituted a surrender to
the government, because the resigna
tion of M. Simyan, under secretary of
posts and telegraphs, has not been
secured. Consequently another com
mittee was appointed to see Premier
Clemenceau.
It is the general opinion that the
strikers wifl emerge victorious and
that the government has saved its dig
nity in refusing to oust M. Simyan.
This official, however, already has
been practically eliminated. He had
no share in the recent negotiations
and in the future Minister of Public
Works Barthou will treat directly with
deputations from the employes' asso
ciations. Furthermore, the govern
ment agrees to regard the whole af
fair as a "wave of folly" and to wipe
the indiscretions off the slate in
other words, to punish no one.
The newspapers of Paris are review
ing the strike movement as if it was
over. The socialist papers claim a
victory, the government organs are
gratified at the end of an unfortunate
misunderstanding, while the inde
pendent-conservative press says the
incident furnishes an eloquent lesson
of the dangerous state of socialism to
wards which France is drifting.
FIRST GUN IN TARIFF DEBATE
Chairman Payne Opens Discuesfon of
Pending Bill.
Washington, March 23.—The first
gun in the tariff debate was fired in
the house of representatives by Mr.
Payne (N. Y.), the majority leader
and chairman of the committee on
ways and means. Before he began
his remarks an agreement was reached
under which, while the bill is under
consideration, the daily sessions shall
start at 11 o'clock instead of noon.
In opening Mr. Payne declared that
the country was overwhelmingly in
favor of a protective tariff. It is an
American policy, he said, and it
seemed to be acquiesced in by the
great majority of the American peo
ple. He did not believe, he added,
that there was a man within the
sound of voice that would rise in
his seat and say that he was in favor
of tearing down every customhouse in
the United States from turret to foun-

Finest Vessels Afloat.
New York, March 23.—-Out
Crowd on the Pier.
TIM long pier to which the Ham
burg was moored was jammed this
morning with persons gathered to see
the Roosevelt party sail. They made
the pier ring with their cheers for the
voyager from the time of his arrival
from New York city until the Ham
burg sailed. He was mightily pleased
with the reception and showed hiB
gratification by his smiles and the
frequency with which he lifted his hat
in response to greetings. To a re
quest for a formal statement of his
plans Mr. Roosevelt returned a smii
Ing denial. "It has all been printed
over and over again," he said, "and I
have nothing to say."
Among the most enthusiastic of the
cheering crowd when the Hamburg
moved slowly away from her pier
was a small boy, who had crowded to
the very limit permitted by the au
tborlties of the steamship line. His
last cry, "Goodbye, Teddy take carr
of yourself!" brought a smile even to
the face of the ex-president, who
teemed then a little tired of smiling
Two Fine Ships Carry Party.
The Hamburg is due at Naples on
April 3. Mr. Roosevelt and his party
will remain in the Italian city twe
days, sailing thence on the Admiral
of the German East African line on
April 5. The Hamburg is one of the
finest vessels of the Hamburg-Amer
lean line and is the favorite ship of
the German emperor. The Admiral is
her equal in all the comforts and con
veniences needed for the hot trip
through the Suez canal, down th
Red sea and along the moist and
sticky coast of East Africa. The Ad
miral is due at Mombasa, where the
Roosevelt party will disembark, on
April 22.
On his arrival at Mombasa Mr
Roosevelt and his party will go direct
to the estate of Sir Alfred Pease, a
member of the well known English
Quaker family, which is situated at
Killlma Thekl, Kaplti plains, British
East African Protectorate, and remain
there for three months during the
heavy rains.
Will Visit American la Afries.
Afterward the Roosevelt party will
go to Nairobi and pay a visit to the
estate of Philip MacMillan, who is
head of an American company that
has a concession of 100 square miles
In the district. They will cross Lakt
Victoria early in December to enter
Uganda when the dry season com
mences in order to do the thirty
seven days' march to Oondokoro in
fine weather.
It is expected that the Roosevelt
expedition will complete its trip
through the dark continent in th«
spring of next year, reaching Cairo
about April 1,1910.

RACING LAW KNOCKED OUT
Kentucky Court Declares Statute Un
constitutional.
Covington, Ky., March H.—Judge
Harbeson, In Kenton county circuit
court, rendered his decision in the
noted case of the Latonla Jockey club
against the Kentucky racing commis
sion, holding the law establishing the
commission as unconstitutional. The
effect of the decision is to place La
tonia racing back to its former basis.
Judge Harbeson held that the law
creating the Kentucky racing commis
sion gave that body power to regulate
running races: that trotting and run
ning races came under the same legal
category and that, therefore, the law
was class legislation and was uncon
stitutional. The court, in other words
held that the law to be valid must
give the racing commission specific
authority over both trotting and run
ning race*.
