Secretary Taft Outlines Administration Policy. Two families of Greek and Italian Gypsies are encamped near the ball ground below the river bridge here. The Gypsies had started from Towanda for Wysox. With them was a six months old child who had been sick. It died on the way to Wysox. The Gypsies then returned to Kast Towanda and the child will be burled here. The child had been taken to the ofllcc of Dr. D. ti. Pratt here yesterday morning but that physician could do nothing for it as it was in the last stages of blood poisoning caused by vaccination. Last evening one of the women of the party of Gypsies with five children came up Main street. The woman was smoking a long, curved pipe. One of the women is a fortune teller and does not seem to be aware of the fact that that profession is under the ban of the law in this state.—Towanda Review. Exceptions to Two of the Stricken by paralysis at the home of his son-in-law, Dr. H. S. Stoker, at Stillwater, G. W. Belles, of New Columbus, died Friday morning after a week's illness. Deceased was a carpenter and at the time of his illness was erecting a barn for Dr. Stoker. On the day he received the stroke he was found sitting in an unused buggy in a semi-conscious opnditlon. He was at once removed to the house and Dr. Wagner summoned. Mr. Belles though conscious at times did not regain his power of speech. He was SO years of age and is survived by his wife, six children, two sisters and Ave brothers.the Corporations. "There are certain classes of our people, such as firemen, most of those employed on railways, the light house and life saving services, who by the very fact of their profession are called upon to exercise those qualities of which this nation would have need should ever It again be called to war. I earnestly hope it never will be tilled again and I will make every effort to see that peace obtains, but one first class way of keeping peace Is to make It evident that you are not afraid to fight. I have a great contempt for the brawler, and not merely contempt but the most active dislike for the man who bullies whomever Is weaker, who wrongs the less fortunate. Japanese Terms.

When he finished his address he wns loudly applauded. He said in part: Chautauqua, N. Y., Aug. 12.—Veiled threats against lawless trusts and a new definition of the Monroe doctrine In which territorial aggrandizement in South America by the United States was distinctly disavowed formed the keynote of President Roosevelt's speech to 10,000 auditors in the vast amphitheatre of the Chautauqua assembly.Portsmouth. N. H„ Aug. 12.—The reply of Ambassador Wit to was presentfid this morning to the Japanese and was neither an acceptance nor a declination of the conditions which Baron Komura lias presented, but an invitation to the Japanese plenipotentiaries to consider the terms piecemeal. Home of the terms are satisfactory to Russia and others must be modified or eliminated If there is to be an agreement at this time. When You Go Driving; Blnghamton, N. Y., Aug. 12.— Hresldent Roosevelt on his return trip from Chautauqua to his Oyster Bay home, passed through three states, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.' At every station where a stop was mfide he was accorded a greeting as affectionate as it was enthusiastic. Along the entire route rain fell heavily, but the storm seemed to have little effect on the determination of the iDeoplo to see the President and if possible to hear him speak. President Roosevelt made brief addresses from the rear platform of his car at Salamanca, Hornellsville, Kim Ira and Waverly. His speech at Salamanca was simply a complimentary address to the people of a city of which he Is very fond and an appeal to the people to conduct themselves always with honesty and decency in private life and relations with a view thereby of bettering the government of the state and of the country. you want th« nicest outlit—tidy buggy and good horse—we have them.

I should certainly protest as strongly against this nation doing aught that was wrong to any other nation as I would of any individual doing wrong, but let us be strong enough to hold our own." THREE MEN WERE KILLED RATHER HEAVY STORM "The American people are divided Into three parties upon the question I am going to discuss. There Is a considerable number who have the real Imperialistic idea of extending the Influence of America, by purchase and conquest, into the orient, enlarging the powers of the American government for the purpose of controlling the Pacific and getting the largest share possible of the orient trade, yet undeveloped, during the one hundred yeurs. The president and pnrty wore taken for a thirty minute drive through the Chautauqua grounds, escorted by a guard of honor from the Thirteenth Separate company. Through u line of 800 boys and girls the president was escorted to the assembly amphitheater, his way being strewn with (lowers. Train Well Guarded, Terrible Accident Occurred in the Truesdale Mine. M. Wltte formally said thnt the Russian envoys had 110 objection to milking public the demands of the Tokyo government, and he announced to newspaper correspondents It would give him pleasure to make known the reply of the czar's representatives, only that the Japanese plenipotentiaries had insisted that all the proceedings must remain secret. For this reason. he said. Ills answer, which had not been directed by Emperor Nicholas. but formulated by himself, with the assistance of Baron Rosen and his staff, would not be disclosed until such time as Baron Komura should assent. Rain Came Down in Torrents Before President lioopevelt left Lakewood the private cm of Frederick D. Underwood, president of the Erie railroad, was attached to the special train. On board were President Underwood, Second Vice President G. A. Richardson and General Manager J. H. Stuart, who accompanied the train to Jersey City. Every precaution' possible was taken by the Erie officials to Insure to the President a safe journey over their lines. Last Evening. When .the party appeared on the platform Bishop Vincent called for the Chautauqua salute at the close of his brief Introduction of the president to the Chautauqua assembly. Instantly 10,000 white handkerchiefs fluttered In the air. It was an Inspiring sight, and as President Roosevelt stepped forward smilingly the audience rose as one person aad cheered enthusiastically.While John Lovett and Two Foretell- The .Storm Covered the Entire Wy- "There is a second party, and this much the larger, who regard our taking over the islands from Spain after the war with the gravest reluctance and who would have been gratified In the extreme if the assumption of the burden could have been avoided. They have come to the conclusion that, however reluctant they were to uccept the fate thrown upon them, it is their duty to meet the responsibilities imposed upon them with promptness, courage and hope.

Showers • were predicted by the weather bureau for lant evening, and the prediction was more than fulfilled. For several hours during the early part of the evening the sky was overcast with dark clouds and there were ominous mutterings of thunder In the distance. The clouds circled the city a couple of times and dually broke, letting down a tremendous llood of water. The storm was accompanied by the sharpest lightning of the season. So far as known, however, no scriouq damage was done in this section, either by the lightning or the rain, ltaln continued to full more or less heavily throughout the night and it was not until the middle of the morning that the rainclouds passed away. The storm covered the entire valley, but no serious damage has been reported. At Hornellsvllle the President touched effectively upon the horrors of the yellow fever epidemic now raging in New Orleans. His address follows: A serious accident occurred about midnight last night} in the Truesdale mine, of the Lacktwauna Company, located a short distance above Nanticoke. Three men were killed and one injured by a fall of boney coal. John Lovett, of Nanticoke. a miner, and two foreign-speaking laborers, also residents of Nanticoke, were at work in their chamber when the roof caved in. Lovett and the two foreigners were instantly crushed to death. Thomas Watklns, of Warrior Hun. was also at work In the place, when the accident occurred, and he suffered a compound fracture of the right leg. He was placed 011 board the Lackawanna's hospital car. which Was brouKht to the mine from Kingston, and was Immediately taken to the Moses Taylor Hospital, Scranton. Men working in the vicinity of the chamber where the accident occurred discovered the trouble soon after It occurred and they promptly notified the colliery officials, who set rescuing the bodies of the victims at once. Superintendent Davis, of Kingston, was 011 the ground quickly, and he bfought with him Dr. Lake, also of Kingston, who dressed the injuries of Watklns temporarily before he was taken to Scranton. Notwithstanding the disagreeable" •weather many thousands of people were In and about the picturesque Chautauqua grounds who could not gain admission to the assembly amphitheater.It is understood that M. Wltte accepts the conditions which command the evacuation of Manchuria and the taking over by China of all the Russian leases in Manchuria north of the Llautong peninsula. There is 110 objection to overlord ship by Japan in Korea, which Includes her right to build fortifications for her own safety on the Korean side of the sea of Japan. Russia will concede to its foe the right to take over the leases of Fort Arthur, Dalny and other seaports on the Llautong peninsula and to exploit them dnring the term for which they were acquired from China by Russia in 1805, but It Is held by M. Wltte that these rights are extremely valuable from the money point) of view and must be considered in the question of reimbursement. "My friends, it is a great pleasure to me to be back hore again. I have been more than once to your city before and I know this region of the country well. I am glad to be traveling through it now and to have the chance of greeting you while I am President. In passing through Pennsylvania and New York today and realizing the happiness and prosperity of our people 1 have felt so much that we ought all of us to. realize that there is one portion of our country now which has been overladen by a great disaster. The city of New Orleans is suffering In Its contest with yellow fever and no one who has not been through an epidemic or the threat of an epidemic of that kind can appreciate the full horror that It brings. The national government is now doing whatever it can do to iiolp Now Orleans. As yet that sympathy is limited to the action of the medical branch. We stand ready to help that great city at any time and I know that the sympathy of every other part of the country goes out to the people of New Orleans and of Louisiana, as they battle valiantl/ a jainst the disease." Under the lead of the line pipe organ the chorus and audience sang "The Star Spangled Banner." and then at the request of President Roosevelt "Dixie" was sung amid immense enthusiasm.TENEMENT WAS BURNED "There is a third party which favors giving the island immediate independence. This party may be divided into two classes having different motives. The first class Is anxious to rid the United States of the burden of governing the Filipinos for the benefit of the United States. The second class Is anxious to rid the Philippines of the government of the United States on the ground that the Filipinos can make their own government. This third party has been twice defeated In an election on that Issua. Duty of the United 8tata«. Costly Fire Occurred in Ply- The President's Speech. Mr. Roosevelt said In part mouth This Morning. Today I wish to speak to you on one feature of our national foreign policy and one feature of our national domestic policy.He ran ton seemed to receive the heaviest end of the storm. The downpour of rain in that section, according to the morning newspapers, was as heavy as ever seen there. Some people were fearful that a cloudburst had occurred. Every street Intersectti'r was Hooded and the sewer catchbashis were utterly inadequate to accommodate the flood. The entire street railway system in Scranton was temporarily disabled. On all lines the cars were delayed and in many instances they were derailed, as a result of accumulations of sand and debris on the tracks. The depression which leads to the tunnel under the I). & H. tracks, at Moostc, was tilled with water, the tracks being covered to a depth of allout live feet. A northbound car dashed down the hill into the water. The water soon reached the platform of the car, and the motor man stopped iu time to avoid giving himself and the passengers an unwelcome bath. The car was then backed tip the hill to a dryer region. Later when another car appeared 011 the other side a transfer of the passengers was effected and this was kept up until midnight, us the water from this point hail no outlet. Three wreck crews were ut work, but the efforts of the men were not equal to the task at hand and normal conditions were not restored on some lines at midnight. Large Structure Occupied liy Foreign The Monroe doctrine Is not a part of international law, but It Is the fundamental feature of our entire foreign policy so far as the western hemisphere is concerned, and It has more and more been meeting with recognition, abroad. The reason why It Is meeting with this recognition is because we have not allowed it to become fossilised, but have adapted our construction of It to meet the glowing, changing needs of this hemisphere. Fosstlizatlon, of course, moans death, whether to an individual, a government or a doctrine. 1'anilllcs Whs Completely Destroy- ed. and Two Adjoining Houses Were Slightly Damaged Chinese Railway Conceded, —Lows Will Itoacli "The second party has for its chief exponent President Roosevelt. He believes that It Is the duty of the United States to prepare the Filipinos for self government. This will require a generation and probably longer, ami the form of self government will be left to the individuals who will control the two nations at that time. It follows that the president—and he himself desires me to say this to the Filipinos— feels charged with the duty of proceeding on this policy and maintaining the sovereignty of the United States here as an Instrument of the gradual education and elevation of the whole of the Filipino people to a self governing community." The abandonment to Japan «of the Chinese Eastern railway from Port Arthur to Chnngtu is conceded, but Mr. Wltle holds that the enormous value of tills railway, growing grouter every year, must be regarded as a big figure from n financial point of view. The concession of the railway from Changtu north to Ilarbin is rejected, and Mr. Witte holds thut it is an integral portion of the Transslberian system, necessary because of the branch line from Chnngtu northeast to KIrln. This he insists Russia must hold. $5,000, About i o'clock this morning, fire started from some unknown cause in a large frame tenement house In the village of Poke Hollow, In Plymouth township, back of Plymouth borough. The blaze caused great excitement. as the burning building was a large structure and there was great danger of the entire row of houses on the street becoming a prey to the flames. The tenement house was owned by Mrs. Cornelius Dwyer, and was occupied by half a dozen foreign families. Nearly all of the occupants were asleep at the time the lire was discovered, und some of them had narrow escapes from being burned to death. The passageway for them to the lower part of the house was cut off and they were obliged to make their way to a place of safety through the second-story windows. There Is no organized Are company ill Poke Hollow, and the only cheek to the flames was that furnished by a bucket brigade. Fortunately it started to rain shortly after the lire broke out, and the rain gave valuable assistance to the lire fighters. The tenement house was completely destroyed, together with its contents. A slnglo dwelling on each side of the tenement. both of which were owned and occupied by foreigners, were slightly damaged by the flames and w'ould probably have been completely destroyed had it not been for the rain and the strenuous efforts of the bucket brigade. In the Interest of Justice It is as necessary to exorcise tlte police power as to ■how charity and helpful generosity, but something can oven now be done toward the end in view. That something, for Instance, this nation has ulready done us regards Cuba and Is now trying to do us regards Santo Domingo. There are few things in our history In which we should take more genuine pride than the way In which we liberated Cuba and then, Instead of Instantly abandoning It to chaos, stayed In direction of the affairs of the Island until we hud put it on the right path and Anally gave it freedom and helped It as it started on tho life of an Independent republic. STRANGEABANDONIHENT Every station on the line of the Erie railroad from Hornellsvllle to this point was thronged with people. At one or two places where the train slowed down, but did not stop, the President waved his hands to the crowds, which broke into cheers as the special passed. At Elmira, where a convention of volunteer firemen Is being held, the President addressed his brief remarks practically to them. A crowd of several thousand persons had assembled at the station, every conceivable point of vantage being taken by the people. Along the t(\ps of some freight cars near the President's special train there waav a solid throng of humanity. A band at the station played patriotic airs as the special came to a stop. The President's remarks follow: Mysterious Case Puzzling Lewisburg Authorities. In blunt terms the Russians reject the Japanese proposal that Sakhalin Island shall become n part of the oriental empire. It Is pointed out in severe terms that Japan at the beginning of the war insisted that she was not bent on conquest ami did not seek any territory not then belonging to her; that she was attempting only to protect her national rights, and hence the taking of Sakhalin island, if insisted upon by the Japanese envoys—which is not conceded by Mr. Witte- must be regarded in the light of a purchase from the Russian empire, involving its valuable Usheries and timber lands. This probably is n side play against the Japanese, demand for reimbursement.Young Man Who Shows No Sign of Primary Education Necessary. Santo Domingo has now made an appeal to us to help It in turn, and not only every principle of wisdom, but every generous Instinct within us, bids us respond to the appeal. The conditions In Santo Domingo have for a number of ycurs grown from bad to worse until recently all society was on the verge of dissolution. Fortunately Just at this time u wise ruler sprang up In Santo Domingo, who, with his colleagues, suw the dangers threatening, their beloved country and appealed to the friendship of their great and powerful neighbor to help them. The Immediate threat came to them In the. shape of foreign Intervention.

About ten days ago a well dressed stranger got off the evening train In WinUeld. He wfis accompanied by u. young man in a new suit of dark blue and a straw hat. The younger of the two was about 20 years old. Proceeding to tile Hyman hotel, the older man, without registering engaged a room for the young man. He paid the bill and remarked that the rates were much lower than in New York city. He then said that he was going away on the night train but that the young man's ulster would be along in the morning and would maka arrangements to stay some time at the hotel. \ DAMAGE SUITS. "My friends and fellow citizens: It Is a very great pleasure to be again in your beautiful city and to have traveled as I have traveled today through this wonderfully fertile country of southern New York, my own state.

Arthur Frothingham and Annette Reynolds owners of Rocky Glen, claim $10,000 for loss of business. William Metcalf, Milton Ellis and Nelson Gorton, three employes, who were sent to jail because they could not furnish bull, demand $10,000 each. From an authoritative source It Is learned that the Russians deny the right of Japan to take the warships now In neutral harbors and holds that they are not the property of Japan by right of war. it being pointed out that even after the end of the war Japan could not go Into any neutral port and take these warships by force. If they be Russian property, then the Japanese demand for them must recognize their value in money, but it is nowhere hinted by the Russian chief envoy' that the Muscovite empire would In any event surrender these ships to the victorious foe.

Secretary Taft Outlines Administration Policy. Two families of Greek and Italian Gypsies are encamped near the ball ground below the river bridge here. The Gypsies had started from Towanda for Wysox. With them was a six months old child who had been sick. It died on the way to Wysox. The Gypsies then returned to Kast Towanda and the child will be burled here. The child had been taken to the ofllcc of Dr. D. ti. Pratt here yesterday morning but that physician could do nothing for it as it was in the last stages of blood poisoning caused by vaccination. Last evening one of the women of the party of Gypsies with five children came up Main street. The woman was smoking a long, curved pipe. One of the women is a fortune teller and does not seem to be aware of the fact that that profession is under the ban of the law in this state.—Towanda Review.

He was at once removed to the house and Dr. Wagner summoned. Mr. Belles though conscious at times did not regain his power of speech.

I earnestly hope it never will be tilled again and I will make every effort to see that peace obtains, but one first class way of keeping peace Is to make It evident that you are not afraid to fight.

When he finished his address he wns loudly applauded. He said in part: Chautauqua, N. Y., Aug. 12.—Veiled threats against lawless trusts and a new definition of the Monroe doctrine In which territorial aggrandizement in South America by the United States was distinctly disavowed formed the keynote of President Roosevelt's speech to 10,000 auditors in the vast amphitheatre of the Chautauqua assembly.Portsmouth. N. H„ Aug. 12.—The reply of Ambassador Wit to was presentfid this morning to the Japanese and was neither an acceptance nor a declination of the conditions which Baron Komura lias presented, but an invitation to the Japanese plenipotentiaries to consider the terms piecemeal. Home of the terms are satisfactory to Russia and others must be modified or eliminated If there is to be an agreement at this time. When You Go Driving; Blnghamton, N. Y., Aug. 12.— Hresldent Roosevelt on his return trip from Chautauqua to his Oyster Bay home, passed through three states, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.' At every station where a stop was mfide he was accorded a greeting as affectionate as it was enthusiastic. Along the entire route rain fell heavily, but the storm seemed to have little effect on the determination of the iDeoplo to see the President and if possible to hear him speak. President Roosevelt made brief addresses from the rear platform of his car at Salamanca, Hornellsville, Kim Ira and Waverly. His speech at Salamanca was simply a complimentary address to the people of a city of which he Is very fond and an appeal to the people to conduct themselves always with honesty and decency in private life and relations with a view thereby of bettering the government of the state and of the country. you want th« nicest outlit—tidy buggy and good horse—we have them.

I should certainly protest as strongly against this nation doing aught that was wrong to any other nation as I would of any individual doing wrong, but let us be strong enough to hold our own." THREE MEN WERE KILLED RATHER HEAVY STORM "The American people are divided Into three parties upon the question I am going to discuss. There Is a considerable number who have the real Imperialistic idea of extending the Influence of America, by purchase and conquest, into the orient, enlarging the powers of the American government for the purpose of controlling the Pacific and getting the largest share possible of the orient trade, yet undeveloped, during the one hundred yeurs. The president and pnrty wore taken for a thirty minute drive through the Chautauqua grounds, escorted by a guard of honor from the Thirteenth Separate company. Through u line of 800 boys and girls the president was escorted to the assembly amphitheater, his way being strewn with (lowers. Train Well Guarded, Terrible Accident Occurred in the Truesdale Mine. M. Wltte formally said thnt the Russian envoys had 110 objection to milking public the demands of the Tokyo government, and he announced to newspaper correspondents It would give him pleasure to make known the reply of the czar's representatives, only that the Japanese plenipotentiaries had insisted that all the proceedings must remain secret. For this reason. he said. Ills answer, which had not been directed by Emperor Nicholas. but formulated by himself, with the assistance of Baron Rosen and his staff, would not be disclosed until such time as Baron Komura should assent. Rain Came Down in Torrents Before President lioopevelt left Lakewood the private cm of Frederick D. Underwood, president of the Erie railroad, was attached to the special train. On board were President Underwood, Second Vice President G. A. Richardson and General Manager J. H. Stuart, who accompanied the train to Jersey City. Every precaution' possible was taken by the Erie officials to Insure to the President a safe journey over their lines. Last Evening. When .the party appeared on the platform Bishop Vincent called for the Chautauqua salute at the close of his brief Introduction of the president to the Chautauqua assembly. Instantly 10,000 white handkerchiefs fluttered In the air. It was an Inspiring sight, and as President Roosevelt stepped forward smilingly the audience rose as one person aad cheered enthusiastically.While John Lovett and Two Foretell- The .Storm Covered the Entire Wy- "There is a second party, and this much the larger, who regard our taking over the islands from Spain after the war with the gravest reluctance and who would have been gratified In the extreme if the assumption of the burden could have been avoided. They have come to the conclusion that, however reluctant they were to uccept the fate thrown upon them, it is their duty to meet the responsibilities imposed upon them with promptness, courage and hope.

Showers • were predicted by the weather bureau for lant evening, and the prediction was more than fulfilled. For several hours during the early part of the evening the sky was overcast with dark clouds and there were ominous mutterings of thunder In the distance. The clouds circled the city a couple of times and dually broke, letting down a tremendous llood of water. The storm was accompanied by the sharpest lightning of the season. So far as known, however, no scriouq damage was done in this section, either by the lightning or the rain, ltaln continued to full more or less heavily throughout the night and it was not until the middle of the morning that the rainclouds passed away. The storm covered the entire valley, but no serious damage has been reported. At Hornellsvllle the President touched effectively upon the horrors of the yellow fever epidemic now raging in New Orleans. His address follows: A serious accident occurred about midnight last night} in the Truesdale mine, of the Lacktwauna Company, located a short distance above Nanticoke. Three men were killed and one injured by a fall of boney coal. John Lovett, of Nanticoke. a miner, and two foreign-speaking laborers, also residents of Nanticoke, were at work in their chamber when the roof caved in. Lovett and the two foreigners were instantly crushed to death. Thomas Watklns, of Warrior Hun. was also at work In the place, when the accident occurred, and he suffered a compound fracture of the right leg. He was placed 011 board the Lackawanna's hospital car. which Was brouKht to the mine from Kingston, and was Immediately taken to the Moses Taylor Hospital, Scranton. Men working in the vicinity of the chamber where the accident occurred discovered the trouble soon after It occurred and they promptly notified the colliery officials, who set rescuing the bodies of the victims at once. Superintendent Davis, of Kingston, was 011 the ground quickly, and he bfought with him Dr. Lake, also of Kingston, who dressed the injuries of Watklns temporarily before he was taken to Scranton. Notwithstanding the disagreeable" •weather many thousands of people were In and about the picturesque Chautauqua grounds who could not gain admission to the assembly amphitheater.It is understood that M. Wltte accepts the conditions which command the evacuation of Manchuria and the taking over by China of all the Russian leases in Manchuria north of the Llautong peninsula. There is 110 objection to overlord ship by Japan in Korea, which Includes her right to build fortifications for her own safety on the Korean side of the sea of Japan. Russia will concede to its foe the right to take over the leases of Fort Arthur, Dalny and other seaports on the Llautong peninsula and to exploit them dnring the term for which they were acquired from China by Russia in 1805, but It Is held by M. Wltte that these rights are extremely valuable from the money point) of view and must be considered in the question of reimbursement. "My friends, it is a great pleasure to me to be back hore again. I have been more than once to your city before and I know this region of the country well. I am glad to be traveling through it now and to have the chance of greeting you while I am President. In passing through Pennsylvania and New York today and realizing the happiness and prosperity of our people 1 have felt so much that we ought all of us to. realize that there is one portion of our country now which has been overladen by a great disaster. The city of New Orleans is suffering In Its contest with yellow fever and no one who has not been through an epidemic or the threat of an epidemic of that kind can appreciate the full horror that It brings. The national government is now doing whatever it can do to iiolp Now Orleans. As yet that sympathy is limited to the action of the medical branch. We stand ready to help that great city at any time and I know that the sympathy of every other part of the country goes out to the people of New Orleans and of Louisiana, as they battle valiantl/ a jainst the disease." Under the lead of the line pipe organ the chorus and audience sang "The Star Spangled Banner." and then at the request of President Roosevelt "Dixie" was sung amid immense enthusiasm.TENEMENT WAS BURNED "There is a third party which favors giving the island immediate independence. This party may be divided into two classes having different motives. The first class Is anxious to rid the United States of the burden of governing the Filipinos for the benefit of the United States. The second class Is anxious to rid the Philippines of the government of the United States on the ground that the Filipinos can make their own government. This third party has been twice defeated In an election on that Issua. Duty of the United 8tata«. Costly Fire Occurred in Ply- The President's Speech. Mr. Roosevelt said In part mouth This Morning. Today I wish to speak to you on one feature of our national foreign policy and one feature of our national domestic policy.He ran ton seemed to receive the heaviest end of the storm. The downpour of rain in that section, according to the morning newspapers, was as heavy as ever seen there. Some people were fearful that a cloudburst had occurred. Every street Intersectti'r was Hooded and the sewer catchbashis were utterly inadequate to accommodate the flood. The entire street railway system in Scranton was temporarily disabled. On all lines the cars were delayed and in many instances they were derailed, as a result of accumulations of sand and debris on the tracks. The depression which leads to the tunnel under the I). & H. tracks, at Moostc, was tilled with water, the tracks being covered to a depth of allout live feet. A northbound car dashed down the hill into the water. The water soon reached the platform of the car, and the motor man stopped iu time to avoid giving himself and the passengers an unwelcome bath. The car was then backed tip the hill to a dryer region. Later when another car appeared 011 the other side a transfer of the passengers was effected and this was kept up until midnight, us the water from this point hail no outlet. Three wreck crews were ut work, but the efforts of the men were not equal to the task at hand and normal conditions were not restored on some lines at midnight. Large Structure Occupied liy Foreign The Monroe doctrine Is not a part of international law, but It Is the fundamental feature of our entire foreign policy so far as the western hemisphere is concerned, and It has more and more been meeting with recognition, abroad. The reason why It Is meeting with this recognition is because we have not allowed it to become fossilised, but have adapted our construction of It to meet the glowing, changing needs of this hemisphere. Fosstlizatlon, of course, moans death, whether to an individual, a government or a doctrine. 1'anilllcs Whs Completely Destroy- ed. and Two Adjoining Houses Were Slightly Damaged Chinese Railway Conceded, —Lows Will Itoacli "The second party has for its chief exponent President Roosevelt. He believes that It Is the duty of the United States to prepare the Filipinos for self government. This will require a generation and probably longer, ami the form of self government will be left to the individuals who will control the two nations at that time. It follows that the president—and he himself desires me to say this to the Filipinos— feels charged with the duty of proceeding on this policy and maintaining the sovereignty of the United States here as an Instrument of the gradual education and elevation of the whole of the Filipino people to a self governing community." The abandonment to Japan «of the Chinese Eastern railway from Port Arthur to Chnngtu is conceded, but Mr. Wltle holds that the enormous value of tills railway, growing grouter every year, must be regarded as a big figure from n financial point of view. The concession of the railway from Changtu north to Ilarbin is rejected, and Mr. Witte holds thut it is an integral portion of the Transslberian system, necessary because of the branch line from Chnngtu northeast to KIrln. This he insists Russia must hold. $5,000, About i o'clock this morning, fire started from some unknown cause in a large frame tenement house In the village of Poke Hollow, In Plymouth township, back of Plymouth borough. The blaze caused great excitement. as the burning building was a large structure and there was great danger of the entire row of houses on the street becoming a prey to the flames. The tenement house was owned by Mrs. Cornelius Dwyer, and was occupied by half a dozen foreign families. Nearly all of the occupants were asleep at the time the lire was discovered, und some of them had narrow escapes from being burned to death. The passageway for them to the lower part of the house was cut off and they were obliged to make their way to a place of safety through the second-story windows. There Is no organized Are company ill Poke Hollow, and the only cheek to the flames was that furnished by a bucket brigade. Fortunately it started to rain shortly after the lire broke out, and the rain gave valuable assistance to the lire fighters. The tenement house was completely destroyed, together with its contents. A slnglo dwelling on each side of the tenement. both of which were owned and occupied by foreigners, were slightly damaged by the flames and w'ould probably have been completely destroyed had it not been for the rain and the strenuous efforts of the bucket brigade. In the Interest of Justice It is as necessary to exorcise tlte police power as to ■how charity and helpful generosity, but something can oven now be done toward the end in view. That something, for Instance, this nation has ulready done us regards Cuba and Is now trying to do us regards Santo Domingo. There are few things in our history In which we should take more genuine pride than the way In which we liberated Cuba and then, Instead of Instantly abandoning It to chaos, stayed In direction of the affairs of the Island until we hud put it on the right path and Anally gave it freedom and helped It as it started on tho life of an Independent republic. STRANGEABANDONIHENT Every station on the line of the Erie railroad from Hornellsvllle to this point was thronged with people. At one or two places where the train slowed down, but did not stop, the President waved his hands to the crowds, which broke into cheers as the special passed. At Elmira, where a convention of volunteer firemen Is being held, the President addressed his brief remarks practically to them. A crowd of several thousand persons had assembled at the station, every conceivable point of vantage being taken by the people. Along the t(\ps of some freight cars near the President's special train there waav a solid throng of humanity. A band at the station played patriotic airs as the special came to a stop. The President's remarks follow: Mysterious Case Puzzling Lewisburg Authorities. In blunt terms the Russians reject the Japanese proposal that Sakhalin Island shall become n part of the oriental empire. It Is pointed out in severe terms that Japan at the beginning of the war insisted that she was not bent on conquest ami did not seek any territory not then belonging to her; that she was attempting only to protect her national rights, and hence the taking of Sakhalin island, if insisted upon by the Japanese envoys—which is not conceded by Mr. Witte- must be regarded in the light of a purchase from the Russian empire, involving its valuable Usheries and timber lands. This probably is n side play against the Japanese, demand for reimbursement.Young Man Who Shows No Sign of Primary Education Necessary. Santo Domingo has now made an appeal to us to help It in turn, and not only every principle of wisdom, but every generous Instinct within us, bids us respond to the appeal. The conditions In Santo Domingo have for a number of ycurs grown from bad to worse until recently all society was on the verge of dissolution. Fortunately Just at this time u wise ruler sprang up In Santo Domingo, who, with his colleagues, suw the dangers threatening, their beloved country and appealed to the friendship of their great and powerful neighbor to help them.

The younger of the two was about 20 years old. Proceeding to tile Hyman hotel, the older man, without registering engaged a room for the young man.

He then said that he was going away on the night train but that the young man's ulster would be along in the morning and would maka arrangements to stay some time at the hotel. \ DAMAGE SUITS.

William Metcalf, Milton Ellis and Nelson Gorton, three employes, who were sent to jail because they could not furnish bull, demand $10,000 each. From an authoritative source It Is learned that the Russians deny the right of Japan to take the warships now In neutral harbors and holds that they are not the property of Japan by right of war. it being pointed out that even after the end of the war Japan could not go Into any neutral port and take these warships by force. If they be Russian property, then the Japanese demand for them must recognize their value in money, but it is nowhere hinted by the Russian chief envoy' that the Muscovite empire would In any event surrender these ships to the victorious foe.
