The bills are commonplace enough, with a single exception.

This is a bill from the Morse Detective Agency of San Francisco and reads as follows: "SAN FRANCISCO, July 1, 1901. Board of Health to Harry N. Morse, Dr. "To services of operative shadowing Dr. May 29th to June 24th, 1901, 27 days, at $6 per day, $162.

The cause of so large an expense bill in the case of Dr. was owing to his being lame and unable to walk much. He took car money twice each day, also trips to Oakland.

Respectfully yours, N. MORSE." Gage, with a request that a warrant be drawn for the amount. Although the bill itself does not conclusively reveal the identity, of the persons "shadowed" and although official information on this point is not obtainable, it is declared by parties who claim to know that the "Dr. referred to In the bill is certainly Dr. H.

Dr. Joseph H. White, chief of the quarantine division of the 'Marine Hospital service, in charge of the San Francisco bureau. The reason why the names are not given In full is declared; to be because it is the practice of the Morse Agancy to insert In a bill of charges only the initials, as is evidenced by that designation of operatives; and further, because of the possible uncomfortable consequences of placing on public record the fact that the Governor of the State had caused men to be shadowed who were not expected to know they were undergoing that treatment. The fact that such' a bill has been specially approved by the Governor and sent to the State Controller with the request that a warrant be drawn for the amount has caused much comment about the Capitol, it having been the first time, so far as known, that a against the State for "shadowing" has ever found thelight of public record.

Acting Secretary Hackett received a reply to-day from Captain James N. Forsyth to his letter calling that officer's attention to an alleged interview published on the subject of the Sampson-Schley controversy.

Hackett made public a statement Baying that Captain Forsyth, while at Kansas City, had declined to talk with a reporter, and adding: "Captain Forsyth, while coming East, was detained over Sunday at Kansas City, Mo. He declined to talk with a reporter. It seems, however, that he fell into private conversation with some person in the hotel, with no idea that what he said would be repeated in any form. His remarks were distorted, and were used to form the substance of the alleged interview. Captain Forsyth has made such disclaimer, and has so frankly avowed his deep regret at any Indiscretion in the premises, that the department is satisfied there was no Intention on his part of violating the order of the department to refrain from public statements.

FIFTY THOTTSAJXD ACRES OF TIMBER LAND SOLD Hackett replied that the department would order them to "Washington as rapidly as circumstances would permit, and pointed out that to bring them together simultaneously might prove disadvantageous to the service. Admiral Schley submitted to Hackett to-day a letter requesting that all of the witnesses within available distance be ordered to this city without delay. Hackett has observed the admiral's wishes and today several officers, most of whom served on board the Brooklyn, were ordered to report to him.

Murderer Feigns Insanity. GUTHRIE, O. Sept. In the Probate Court this afternoon Frank Bills, the murderer of Farrls Clayton, was bound over to the Grand Jury without bonds. He still feigns insanity.

Pretty Doris Radke, Eive Years of Age, Is Honored by the Knights of This Golden State and Is Sharing? With Them the Pleasures of the Conclave and Hospitalities Offered by the Kentuckians The remainder of the afternoon's programme Included a visit to the Government building and Inspection of exhibits, after which" the President returned- to Mr. Milburn's for dinner, the Invited guests returning to their hotels. The President and McKinley visited the grounds this evening to view the illumination and fireworks. At 2 o'clock the President was entertained at luncheon by the New York State Committee in the New York State building. There were 200 guests, including the members of the diplomatic corps, members of Cabinet, judges, officers and other distinguished men.

Mrs. McKinley was taken to the women's building, where she was entertained by the women managers. A committee representing the States having exhibits in the horticulture build- Ing presented Mrs. McKinley with two baskets of fruit, the choicest of the fine exhibits in that structure. From the Stadium the President proceeded to the Canadian building, where he was met by the Canadian Commissioners, and viewed the Canadian exhibits.

He next visited the agricultural building, where he was met by such foreign commissioners as have no buildings of their own, but have exhibits in that building-. He next visited the buildings of Honduras, Chile. Mexico, Dominican Republic, Porto Rico and Ecuador, where he was received by the commissioners of the respective countries. The troops then marched past the stand and performed intricate maneuvers for fifteen minutes. President McKinley's speech was frequently interrupted with applause, his words referring to the establishment of reciprocal treaties with other countries, the necessity of the American people building an isthmian canal and a Pacific cable and his reference to the work of Blaine in developing the pan-American Idea, bringing forth especially enthusiastic cheers.

Upon the conclusion of his address a large number of people broke through the lines around the stand and the President held an impromptu reception for fifteen minutes, shaking hands with thousands. The carriages were then brought to the steps of the stand and the President, accompanied by the diplomatic corps and specially Invited guests, was taken to the Stadium. When the President arrived there at 12:15 p. m. the structure was crowded to the last inch of standing room.

The troops stood at attention while the President, accompanied by Colonel Chapln and the officers in command, reviewed them. Cheer after cheer from the vast assemblage greeted the chief executive as he walked from one end of the tribune to the other and back to the reviewing stand. Holds an Impromptu Reception. Our earnest prayer Is that God will graciously vouchsafe prosperity, happiness and peace to all our neighbors and like blessings to all the peoples and powers of earth. Who can tell the new thoughts that have been awakened, the ambitions fired and the high achievements that will be wrought through this exposition? GentlenJen.

let us ever remember that our interest ik in accord, not conflict, and that our real eminence rests In the victories of peace, not those of war. We hope that all who are represented here may be moved to higher and nobler efforts for their own and the world's good and that. out of this city may come, not only greater commerce and trade for us all, but more essential than these, relations of mutual respect, confidence and friendship which will deepen and endure. With praises and thanksgiving." In the furtherance of these objects of national interest and concern, you are performing an Important part. This exposition would have touched the heart of that American statesman whose mind was ever alert and thought ever constant for a larger commerce and truer fraternity of the republics of tho new world.

His broad American spirit Is felt and manifested here. He needs no identification to an assemblage of Americans anywhere, for the name of Blaine is Inseparably-associated with the pan-American movement which finds this practical and substantial expression, and which we all hope will be firmly, advanced by the Pan-American Congress that assembles this autumn In the capital of Mexico. The good work will go on. It cannot be These buildings will disappear, this creation of art and beauty and Industry will perish from sight, but their Influence will remain to "Make it live beyond its too short living If, perchance, some of our tariffs are no longer needed for revenue or to encourage and protect our industries at home, why should they not be employed to extend and promote our markets abroad? Then, too, we have inadequate steamship service. New lines of steamers have already been put In commission between the Pacific Coast ports of the United States and those on the western coasts of Mexico and Central and South America.

These should be followed up with direct steamship lines between the Eastern coast of the United States and South American ports. One of the needs of the times Is direct commercial lines from our vast fields of product to the fields of consumption that we have but barely touched. Next In advantage to having the thing to sell is to have the convenience to carry It to the buyer. We must encourage our merchant marine. We must have more ships.

They must be under the American flag, built and manned and owned by Americans. These will not only be profitable in a commercial sense; they will be messengers of peace and amity wherever they go. We must build the Isthmian canal, which will unite the two oceans and give a Etralght line of water communication with the western, coasts of Central and South America and Mexico. The construction of a Pacific cable cannot be longer postponed. Pays Tribute to Memory of Blaine.

Delivers a Masterly Address at the Pan-American Exposition and Says That the Court of Arbitration Is -the Noblest Forum for. the Settlement of Air International Disputes that this country is in a state of unexampled Prosperity. The figures are almost appalling. They show that we are utilizing our fields and forests and mines and that are furnishing profitable employment to the millions of worklngmen throughout the United States, bringing comfort and happiness to their homes and making it possible to lay by something for old age and disability. That all the people are partldpting In this great prosperity Is seen In every American community and shown by the enormous and unprecedented deposits In our savings banks.

Our duty Is the' care and security of these deposits, and their safe investment demands the highest integrity and the best business capacity of those in charge of these depositories of the people's earnings. We have a vast and Intricate business, built up through years of toll and struggle, In which every part of the country has its stake, which will not permit of either neglect or of undue selfishness. No narrow, sordid policy will subserve it. The greatest skill and wisdom on the part of the manufacturers and producers will be required to hold and increase it. Our industrial enterprises, which have grown to such great proportions, affect the homes and occupations of the people and the welfare of the country.

Our capacity to produce has developed so enormously and our products have so multiplied that the problem of more markets requires our urgent and immediate attention. Only a broad and enlightened policy will keep what we have. No other policy will get more. In these times of marvelous business energy and gain we ought to be looking to the future, strengthening the weak places in our industrial and commercial that we may be ready for any storm or strain. Commercial "Wars Aire Unprofitable.

By sensible trade arrangements which will not interrupt our home production we shall extend the outlets for our increasing surplus. A system which provides a mutual exchange of commodities is manifestly essential to the continued healthful our export trade. We must not repose in fancied security that we can forever sell everything and buy little or nothing. If such a thing were possible it would not be best for us or for those with whom we deal. We should take from our customers such of their products as we can use without harm to our industries and labor.

Reciprocity Is the natural outgrowth of our wonderful industrial development under the domestic policy now firmly established. What we produce beyond our domestic consumption must have a vent abroad. The excess must be relieved through a foreign outlet and we should sell everywhere we can and buy wherever the buying will enlarge our sales and productions, and thereby make a greater demand for home labor. The period of exclusiveness is past. The expansion of our trade and commerce Is the pressing problem.

Commercial wars are unprofitable. A policy of good will and friendly trade relations will prevent reprisals. Reciprocity trestles are in harmony with the spirit of the times; measures of retaliation are not. BUFFALO. N.

Sept. day at the Pan-American Exposition remained clear, with the temperature sufficiently low to make the day all that could be desired. Flags and bearing words of welcome to the President and expressive of the sentiment which the great lair Is designed to foster, "Peace to Pan-America," were profusely In evidence. A detail of police kept the crowd back from the sidewalk In front of the house of Mr. Milburn on Delaware avenue, where the President Is stopping, but those most eager to catch a glimpse of the President and Mrs.

McKinley indiscriminately invaded the beautiful lawns of the adjoining residences and some even went eo far as to climb upon the verandas. The President and Mrs. McKinley, who unassisted, emerged at 10 o'clock. A creat burst of cheers greeted them, which the President acknowledged by bowing and raising his hat. The President and Mrs.

McKinley entered the first carriage and Mr. Milburn, president of the exposition, and Mrs. "William Hamlin of the board of women managers the second. An escort of twenty mounted police and twenty members of the signal corps surrounded the two carriages and the cavalcade set out at a brisk trot for the Lincoln Parkway entrance to the exposition grounds. The two carriages were followed by a number of carriages and tallyhos, their occupants blowing fanfares.

At I the entrance to the exposition grounds the President was met by detachments of the Vnlted States marines and the Seacoast Artillery and the Sixtyflfth and Seventy-fourth X. G. S. N. Y.

regiments. A President's salute of twenty-one guns was fired. The President was at once escorted to the stand erected in the Esplanade, where probably the greatest crowd ever assembled there greeted him with ringing cheers. The vast assemblage oversowed to the Court of Fountains. In the stand on each side of the President were seated many distinguished men and women, among them representatives of most of the South American republics.

There was almost absojutev quiet when President Milburn arose and Introduced the President, as "Ladles and gentlemen, the President. The great audience then broke out -with a mighty cheer, which continued as President McKinley advanced to the front or the stand. It was some minutes before he was able to proceed. When quiet was restored, the President spoke as follows: "Welcomes Foreign Representatives. President Milburn.

Director General Buchanan. Commissioners, ladies and gentlemen: 1 am glad to be again In the city of Buffalo and exchange greetings with her people, to whose generous hospitality I am not a stranger and with whose good will I have been repeatedly and signally honored. To-day 1 have additional satisfaction in meeting and giving welcome to the foreign representatives assembled here whose presence and participation in this exposition have contributed in so marked a degree to its interest and success. To the commissioners of the Dominion of Canada and the British colonies, the French colonies the republics of Mexico and -of Central and South America, and the commissioners of Cuba and Porto Rico, who share with us In this undertaking, we give the hand of fellowship and felicitate with them upon the triumphs of art. science, education and manufacture which the old has bequeathed to the new century.

Expositions are the timekeepers of progress. They record the world's advancement. They stimulate the energy, enterprise and intellect of the people and quicken human genius. They FO into the home. They broaden and brighten the daily life of the people.

They open mightv rtorehouses of information to the student. Every exposition, great or small, has helped to some onward' step. Comparison of ideas is always educational, and as such instructs the brain and hand of man. Friendly rivalry follows, which Is the 6pur to industrial improvement, the Inspiration to use future Invention and to high endeavor in all departments of human activity. It exacts a study of the wants, comforts and even the whims of the people and recognizes the efficacy of high quality and new prices to win their favor.

The quest of trade is an Incentive to men of business to devise, invent. Improve and economize In the cost of production. Business life, whether among ourselves or with other people, is ever a sharp struggle for success. It will be none the less so In the future. Without competition we would be clinging to the clumsy and antiquated processes of farming and manufacture, and the methods of business of long ago, and the twentieth century tu-ould be no further advanced than the eighteenth century.

But though commercial competitors we are, commercial enemies we must rot be. The Pan-American Exposition has done its work thoroughly, presenting in its exhibits evidences of the highest skill and illustrating the progress of the human family in the Western hemisphere. This portion of the earth has no cause for humiliation for the part it has performed in the march of civilization. It has not accomplished everything; far from It. It has simply done Its best and without vanity or boastfulness, and recognizing the manifold achievements of ethers, it Invites the friendly rivalry of all the powers in the peaceful pursuits of trade end commerce and will co-operate with all in advancing the highest and best interests of huTnanlty.

The wisdom and energy of all the netiens "are none too great for the world's work. The success of art, science, industry end invention Is an International asset and a common glory. i The Telegraph ESEaces Distances. After all. how near one to the other is every part of the world.

Modern inventions have brought Into relation widely separated peoples and made them better acquainted. Geographic and political divisions will continue to exist, but distances have been effaced. Swift ehips and fast trains are becoming cosmopolitan. They Invade the fields which a few years ago were impenetrable. The world's products are exchanged as never before and with ever-increasing transportation facilities come increasing knowledge and trade.

Prices are fixed with mathematical precision by supply and demand. The world's selling prices are reg'ilated by market and crop reports. We travel greater distances In a shorter space of time and more ease than was ever dreamed of by the fathers. Isolation is no longer possible or drslrable. The same important news Is read, thouph In different languages, the same day In all Christendom.

The telegraph keeps us advised of what Is occurring everywhere, and the press foreshadows, with more or less accuracy, the plans and purposes of the nations. Market prices of products and of securities are known hourly in every commercial mart, and the Im-estments of the people extend beyond their own national boundaries Into the remotest parts of the earth. Vast transactions are conducted and international exchanges are made by the tick of the cable. Every event of Jnterert is Immediately bulletined. The quick gathering and transmission of newe.

like rapid transit, are of recent origin and are only made possible by the genius of the inventor and the courage of the investor. It took a special.messenger of the Government, with every facility known at the time of the rapid travel, nineteen days to go from the city of Washington to New Orleans with a message to General Jackson that the war with England had ceased end a treaty of peace had been signed. How different now. We reached General In Porto Rleo by cable and he was able through the military telegraph to stop his army on the firing line with the messaire that the United States and Spain had signed a protocol suspending hostilities. knew almost Instantly of the first ehots fired at Santiago, and the subsequent rurrender of the Spanish forces was known at Washington within less than an hour of its consummation.

The first ship of Cervera's fleet had hardly emerged from that historic harbor when the fact was flashed to our capita! and the swift destruction that followed announced Immediately through the wonderful medium of telegraphy. So accustomed are we to safe and easy communication with distant lands that Its temporary Interruption even tn ordinary times results' in loss and We shall never forget the days of anxious waiting and awful suspense when no Information was oennltted to be sent from Peking and the diplomatic representatives of the nations In China, cut off from all communication Inside and outside of the walled capital, were surrounded by an angry and mispuided mob that threatened their lives; nor the Joy that thrilled the world when a single message from the Government of the -Lnlted States brought through our Minister the first news of the safety of the besieged diplomats.
