Oyster Bay, N. Y.--Ex-President Roosevelt announced Friday for the first time that he will sail from New York for Africa on March 23 at noon. He will take passage on the steamer Hamburg. Mr. Roosevelt said also that he had received so many letters, telegrams and cablegrams that it would be physically impossible for him to an­ swer one-tenth of them. Wearing a Knickerbocker suit he took a vigorous walk through the woods near Saga­ more Hill. Leaves for Africa Marsh 2S. Finally, however, he consented to •ay a few words and made the first public announcement of the date and steamer on which he is to depart for Africa, which is March 2$, by the Steamer Hamburg. It is a happy family at Sagamore HilL Mr. Roosevelt is enjoying an uninterrupted democratic life and in­ tends to continue to enjoy it until starting on his hunting trip. Several bouquets of American Beauty roses, the gift of admiring friends, were sent to Sagamore Hill for Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt from New York. More than anything else Mr. Roose­ velt needs he found is his secretary. A deluge of letters, telegrams and cablegrams poured into Sagamore Hill bringing to the former president the kindly sentiments of friends from all parts of the world. So great is the number of these messages that he asked the press to announce that while he appreciated these and would like to reply to each, it is a physical Impossibility for him to answer even one-tenth of them. Brings Treasured Picture. Mr. Roosevelt brought with him from' Washington . a portrait of his mother's old home in Georgia. It was presented to him by Mrs. Ella D.

One of his last acts before retiring from office was to issue an order sup­ plementing that made by him August 1, 1905, prohibiting the use of influ­ ence to obtain assignments to duty by officers of the navy and marine corps. The order directs that hereafter all requests and recommendations, writ­ ten or verbal, received at the navy de­ partment from or on behalf of such officers of whatever nature--other than those received through regular official channels--are to be filed with or noted on their record.

New York.--The federal grand Jury here, which has been investigating al­ leged libelous publications in con­ nection with the Panama canal pur­ chase, has returned indictments against the Press Publishing Com­ pany, publishers of the New York World, and Caleb Van Hamm, one of the editors of the World. The indictments were filed with Dis­ trict Judge Holt, sitting in the crim­ inal branch of the United States cir­ cuit court. While the Indictments were placed under the seal of the court, it is understood that the return will be made on them Friday. It is un­ derstood the indictments are framed under the federal omnibus statute which authorizes the prosecution for an offense committed on federal terri­ tory not mentioned in the United States revised statutes to be con­ ducted according to the ezlsti^g f|ate law* . The spoils system impels men to make all they can within a limited time. The merit system admonishes them to play fair and so hold their jobs without reference to political in­ terference. One tempts a man to graft while he has the chance. The other prompts him to so conduct him­ self as to retain a good thing. This waives moral considerations--but so do many politicians. 8peaking by the card, Mr. Rocke­ feller's latest gift of a million to Chi­ cago university brings the total of his contributions to the funds of that in­ stitution up to $24,375,365.

Many Die In Quake. -TPI Jerusalem.--This city was shaken Wednesday $§ an earthquake whjcb; it was learned later, destroyed the vil­ lage of Masran, near here. At least 160 persons are dead and how many more are buried In the ruins is not known at this time. Relief parties were at once sent out to the scene and early reports from them indicated that the disaster is greater than at first supposed. They reported that every home in the village was destroyed and that the groans of scores of buried persons, still alive, can be heard from the debris. Soon several had been ex­ tracted from the ruins, but most of them had suffocated. Ten Die in Avalanches.

Pftlitit.PoWitf In Pocketa iHve .iuwfts * of Persons Living* * Sioux City. ; Washington.--The body of a well- dressed man, a ragged wound in the neck, was found Sunday covered with snow near Alexandria, Va., a short dis­ tance from Washington. In the pock* ets of the clothing were a traveler's check for $300 issued by the Wells- Fargo Express Company at Los An­ geles, Cal., payable to Walter F. Schultz, a card bearing the same name, but with an address of 1314 Douglas street, Sioux City, la., and an­ other card which bears the name of Mrs. Alma Hume Gillette. The police regard the case as one of cold-blooded murder and as one of the most mystifying crimes ever com­ mitted in this section. A motive for the murder is lacking, and the identity of the man supposed to be Schultz is by no means complete. Cards and other papers found in the victim's clothes are believed to have "been placed there by his slayer. The theory that the mm committed suicide is not credited because of the peculiar character of the wound and the fact that no weapon of any sort was found near his body. The police also assert that it is improbable that robbery was the motive, as $28 in cash and a gold watch were found in the pockets of the victim. After working upon all sorts of clews, the Alexandria police are still in doubt as to the man's identity and the manner in which he met his death. One theory is that he was an in­ auguration visitor who was lured away from the city, murdered and his body thrown into a field where it was found, about 400 yards from the Alexandria railroad station. The authorities believe they will es­ tablish the Identity of the victim from a letter, without envelope, evidently belonging to the dead man. It was dated "Sioux City, la., Dec. 30," and signed "Your sister, Ellen Dorothy." POLICE SUPPRESS SOCIALISTS. Efforts at Demonstration In Paris Is Quickly Stopped. . Paris.--The Social Revolutionists, as a protest against the vigorous meas­ ures of the government, tried to organ­ ize a huge hostile demonstration against Premier Clemenceau Sunday afternoon at the unveiling of the mon­ ument erected to Charles Thomas Flo- quet, former prime minister of France. President Fallieres, ex-President Loubet, many officers, senators and deputies w6re present, together with the members of various organizations.

DECISION BY M'PHERSOH PRESIDENT CULLS pOHGRESS HOUSE TO SPEND TWO ikf^NTHS ON TARIFF. Meantime tho Senate May Consider Postal Banks, Statehood and Census Bills. • Washington.--When congress meets on March 15 upon the call issued by the president last Saturday to con­ sider a revision of the tariff, there will be no constitutional restrictions upon the nature of business that may be transacted. It is generally conceded that at least two months wHl be required for the house of representatives to con­ clude consideration of all the sched­ ules involved in this legislation. The house itself will not receive the bill for some weeks as the committee on ways and means will require consider­ able time to report the measure. During this long period the^enate will have nothing to do in respect to the tariff and even after the bill leaves the house it will be in the hands of the committee on finance for some t£me before the senate actually gets possession of it and the debate begins. In view of the extended period of inactivity that would face each house should nothing be considered except the tariff, many senators are consid­ ering the advisability of entering upon other legislation which they believe ought to be passed in time to send it over to the house when that body has disposed of its bill. A postal savings bank law, the change in date of inauguration and New Mexico and Arizona statehood legislation are among the things the senate may take up. The president's veto of the census bill also makes mandatory some action to provide for the enumeration of the thirteenth censtts. Would Exclude Orientals.

REFU8E8 CABIN TO ROOSEVELT. Detroit Man Declines to Surrender Quarters Reserved on Steamer. Detroit, Mich.--Taking the ground that ex-President Roosevelt is now only a private citizen, and therefore not entitled to any more than ordinary consideration, Archibald G. Ellair, a prominent and wealthy stock broker of this city, has declined to yield to the persuasion of the vessel agents who used some strong arguments to induce him tocgive up his stateroom on the Hamburg-American liner because it was needed for the use of' Roosevelt and his party. Mr. Ellafr completed his arrange­ ments some time ago for a trip abroad and by a coincidence happened to hit upon the same vessel of the Ham­ burg-American line upon which the Roosevelt party intends to sail. A day or two ago the steamship peo­ ple were advised that additional rooms were imperatively required for thf ex- president's party. It was found that the quarters allot­ ted to*Mr. Ellair adjoined Roosevelt's,' but he refused to give iip his quarters.

' i _ Indianapolis. -- The resisnaatRSfl of Joseph B. Kealing, United States dis­ trict attorney, who refuses to take part in the government's Panama libel suit, has caused much comment here and there is much speculation concerning his probable successor. It has been Known to a few of his friends that Mr. Kealing did not ap­ prove of the method adopted under in-, structions from President Roosevelt of prosecuting the Indianapolis News and New York World editors, but his resig­ nation came as a surprise to many. Mr. Kealing has held the office of United States district attorney for nearly eight years, and his standing with the department of justice is said to be high.

Passenger and Freight Statutes Do- dared Confiscatory--Earnings of Roads Are Little or W . Nothing. ' * ICiiisas CIty, Mo., Mar.A notablo decision In favor of the railroads was handed down to-day by Judge McPher- son of the United States district court in the two-cent fare and maximum freight rate cases, involving 18 Mis­ souri lines. The railroads contended that the rates fixed by the statutes of the state were not remunerative but confiscatory and that the enforcement Of the statutes be enjoined. The state brought proceedings to have them en­ forced, "The question," said Judge MePhe?y son in his decision, "Is whether tho traffic wholly within the state of Mis­ souri, generally referred to in the evi­ dence as local traffic, can be carried under the freight rate statute of 1907 and the passenger fare statute of 1907 at such profit as will give a reasonable return after paying expenses upon the investment, or whether such traffic is carried at a loss or less than such reasonable profit. ... The court has reached the conclusion that upon this question the statutory rates fixed by either and both statutes are not re­ munerative." ; Six Per Cent. Not ToO Much. * | "The supreme court during the pres­ ent year in the case of City of New York vs. Consolidated Gas Company of New York decided that six per cent, was fair an,d right to be given to the owners upon the true valuation. My opinion Is that while a gas plant is in some respects different from a rail­ road, a railroad property, properly built and properly managed, should over and above expenses make a re­ turn of six per cent, per annum. And considering all the evidence, the evi­ dence fairly shows that all of these roads were properly and economically built and are being properly and eco­ nomically managed, and that after pay­ ing the expenses for maintenance and operation, there Is less than six per cent, of returns, and not more than three per cent, upon any of them, and as to some of them a deficit, taking the property as above stated within the state of Missouri at its fair valua­ tion. < "It is absolutely necessary that many trains, both passenger and freight, do both a local hnd interstate business. Even the fast trains stopping at but few stations In the state carry state passengers between such stations. And the same is true as to freight trains carrying frei^it both in carload and less than carload lots. "The valuation of the roads has been fixed by the court as shown by the findings of fact. The entire state and interstate earnings of each of the roads within the state is known and fixed to a certainty. The expenses are known and fixed. To apportion these expenses must be done according to one of the two theories, and the cor­ rect theory Is that according to revo- > nue. Deficit or Small Earning*. "These computations show as to the commodities covered by the freight rate statute of 1907, that with two roads, the St Louis & Hannibal and the Bur­ lington, allowing nothing for extra cost, there is a deficit, and with all other companies less than two per cent. But with the extra cost added, the deficit for the two companies is much greater, and the other compan­ ies show a deficit. "The passenger earnings under the two-cent fare law of 1907, allowing nothing few extra cost over Interstate business, give no return whatever to the Rock Island, St. Louis A Hannibal, Kansas City, Clinton & Springfield and the Great Western. The other companies will have the following: The St. Louis & San Francisco, be­ tween three and four per cent.; the Santa Fe, between four and five per cent.; the Kansas City Southern, a small fraction over two per cent.; the Missouri, Kansas ft Texas, between two and three per cent.; the Burling­ ton, between three and four per cent. All this 1B arrived at by allowing no extra cost of service. But to add the extra cost for freight and passenger, there are no earnings over expenses. This Is confiscation under the consti­ tution. "It being a legislative act, and not a judicial one, this court cannot fix rates. If it could, 2^4-cent passenger rates would be fixed for the stronger roads and three for the others. But that is for the legislature, acting Itself with experts, such as the state em­ ployed In these cases, or through a commission with like assistance." Travel Increase 8mall. Judge McPherson also says tai th# decision: "When the statutes In ques­ tion were enacted, it was believed by many that by reducing the fare there would be much more travel. For a month or so this proved to be true. But with the novelty gone, the testi­ mony shows that the increase has been less than three per cent, and more nearly one per cent." He says further as to the abolition of passes that the evidence shows ue passenger revenue is increased by rea­ son thereof less than one per cent. • Real Mean.. •• Pawl--And he stole a kisaf I? \ Rilhy (pouting)--He did and t sla» never forgive him.
