Dr. Ryan was coriuauy anj unequivocally in ravor of adjourning immediately and without delay to the woods of Virginia, where he wouldn't have to shake hands with so many people. Delay Duo to Lights.

The delay in starting the program was due to (he fact that the lights in the hall went out. Just at that time the storm was at best, and lightning: flashed vividly, lending, in the opinion' of. the hundreds of persons a most aspect to the occasion, particularly when Father Smoulter, by the aid of matches, started a miniature display of his own as he told everybody that the entertainment would start as soon eus candles could be procured from the church. While messengers went for the candles somebody started to whistle I angnten me Corner Where You and for a short time this was the musical pride of the evening, at least until the candles appeared upon the scene to do a little brightening on their own account. No sooner had the candles been properly installed, however, than the electric, lights burst forth In all" their glory, and not all the candles ivere arrayed like one i of these.

Applause greeted the return of the electric power, but the heart of Dr. ft inn went galloping off in dismay. He had hoped that the hall would be dark when he made his appearance, lie wanted to make a speeoh for the good of the church, but he also wanted to dodge the faces of his friends. "You see." he confided to the man from The Tribune Republican, "It's all in the game to be Dut into Mexi can prisons, and, after all one doesn't really mind that sort of thing, but it is awful to try to make a speech before a crowd of people who knew you when you were a kid." Would Like to Beat It. The Red Cross man was looking nattv and handsome In evening dress.

He was modest, far too modest for a man whose name only, a few weeks ago was on the tongue of every person in these hlessed United States. He knows he is famous, and has no false modesty about saying It, but he retains the same old pose of friendliness that made him popular in the good old days. "I want to beat it to the woods of Virginia," he continued. "I feel as if I had shaken hands with people. The llesh of my rignt hand is sore and my knuckles bruised.

Everywhere 1 go, somebody has to say, There's Dr. and 1 tell you, man, it's decidedly an uncomfortable feel ing to nave yourseit spuiteu an while. If 1 could only get clown to Virginia, in the woods, away from all the handshaking and the spotting." Dr. Ryan has shaken hands with so many people since his return from Mexico, that he must believe by this timp that an armless man is the only sort whose friendship is worth cultivation. Despite this fact, the clasp of his hand Is far from being merely mechanical it Is natural and genuinely friendly.

The Trlbune Repuolican man suggested that he wander to Hawaii, but Dr. I'yan shook his head in dubious fashion. Even in Hawaii, thev would spot him, for Dr. Ryan, while in Mexico, assisted between 15, OOOand 0.U00 AmericariSTto gel 'safely out of the country. On one occasion over 300 refuges were sent out of Hu erta's country, and every state in the union except one, was represented among them.

'Somebody knows me wherever I go Dr. Uyan said, somewhat plaintively. "It wouldn't do any good to go. to Hawaii. .1 want to go to the woods of Virginia.

Almost Prefers the Bruises. "Do you know 1 wish those lights hadn't gone up. 1 had been hoping they wouldn't shine again until after 1 nnished talking. tin glad to be here in my own home town, but I think. rather than face a crowd of people who knew me when 1 was a kid, I prefer the Mexican prisons alio 1 wouldn take anotner aose oi that for a million dollars, ana you knew a million dollars is a lot of mnnev.

I've siioken before, but never delivered an address to people I know. talked in Texas, and on the plains onen air talks to the soldiers, you know. But 1 guess 1 can stand it yet 1 wish those lights were out." Father Smoulter introduced Dr. Ryan. The priest said that grit is something to be admired, and that Dr.

Kyan was in possession of a lot of grit. "Our speaker wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth," declared father smoulter, who, by the way, celebrated tho twenty third anniversary of his ordination today. He is a telt made man, but he has now reached the pinnacle of success. We would nave celebrated about him if he cam back dead or alive. He'd make a pretty nice corpse." Oa the Firing Use.

Dr. Ryan's first act, after the introduction, was to place his hand in Ins hip pocket, draw forth a handkerchief and use it upon his face, from which perspiration was freely dripping Once an order had gone forth that he be shot, so" it is said, but ne was calm in the face of death You want to know something of inv experiences in Mexico," he said, "liut I can't tell anything; so 1 will hove to talk instead regarding the preparedness of the United estates army and navy for war."

He is afflicted with palsy to such an extent that he cannot write more than two sentences and, finally, his condition is such that the slightest mental excitement Incident to such an examination as Is proposed by the commission probably would result in a spasm, which would bring about strangulation and be fatal to him." It is txpected that Governor Folk will go to Mr. Rockefeller's country home some time within the next fort and all necessary documents, lnclud lng the minutes of the New Haven and its various subsidiaries involved, and Insist on an examination of the witness.

The trail of the "lost $11,000,000," which has figured so prominently in the investigation, Saturday led directly to the man who first uncovered iU expenditure Charles S. Mellen, ex president of the New Haven. In his testimony before Commissioner McCljord, L. S. Miller, president of the New York, Westch ester and Boston, told how Mellen had himself borrowed $9,905,000 of thie $11,000,000, "without the approval, consent or knowledge of the linance committee of tne New Haven." The Intimation was that, as Mellen had borrowed the money, he mut have known what became of it.

in considering this point the witness said that Mellen knew that $2,900,000 of the $11,000,000 had been paid for the Millbrook company, and that therefore this sum might be deducted the money concerning which Mellen testified he knew nothing. Opnoalnff Attorney Clash. Attorney Hines asked the commission for permission file us a part of til record a history of the New A.nrU, Westchester and Boston Kail road. Folk objected. explained the statement was prepared last February and waB free irom prejudice.

Attorney Crim. Mellen's attorney, said if there were anything in the statement which would serve to contradict Mellen's testimony he would object to Its inclusion in the record. Folk wanted to know if the statements were made entirely from Miller's knowledge. Three parts were based on information gathered and one part on 'personal knowledge. Miller Wnereupon oiK saia sucn nearsay evidence was highly improper.

Then Mines tendered the statement for private scrutiny by the commission to determiine the propriety of including it in the record. Commissioner McChord ruled that that could be done or Hlnes could examine the witness orally, the witness to bo permitted to re. fresh his recollection from the statement. Ouestions by Hines brought for. sns'wers tending to show that the Westchester aided the New Haven in relltving the immense passenger tr.f fic of the latter road Into New York.

Mr. Miller said this would be true to a gret.ter extent when a certain mo wav and other rapid transit facilities In New Tork were completed. Cross examining Mr. Miller, Mr. Folk asked: "Isn't It true that the Westchester would have to earn four times as much as it now does In order to make It a paving proposition?" "It would have to earn about four and a half, times as much," answered Mr, Miller.

Many oi the members of the congreattion followed the evicted suffragists to the sidewalk, where a weli dressed woman hit a militant sister in the face, which bled profusely.

The crowd cheered the woman who struck the blow. Only two of the suffragists who caused the disorder were arrested. They also refused to give their names. The growing hostility on the part ot tne pudiic toward tne militant sui fragtsts. was shown by assaults today on several open air meetings.

Speakers were mobbed, stands were torn down and the women were saved by the police from duck.ngs or oeatings. A crowd at Hempstead Heath knocked over the platform from which party of militant suffragists were to speak and scattered them in all directions.

Antilla was indicated tonight when Secretary Daniels issui an olHci.il statement announcing that while no new orders had been given Rear Admiral Badger, there had been no change in the policy the government in reference to its desire tnat the port of Tamptco shall be open to all commerce. The statement was: Daniels' Statement. "The navy department has issued no new orders to Admiral Badger since the Mexican gunboats were reported to be leaving 'Puerto, Mexico.

The uepai tment has at no time contemplated furnishing; a convoy to the Antilla or any other ship, nor have any orders to that effect been issued. "No word whatever has been received whether the warships of other nations have been notified ot the block de at Tamplco, or what their attitude would be toward' such a blockade. There has been no change In the policy of the government in reference to its desire that the port of Tampico shall oe open to all commerce." As to whether "all cumeroe" in this instance includes contraband of war, no official of the government will discuss. That the blockade decree will be carried out was verltied today by Admiral Badger in a report to the navy department from Vera Cruz announcing that the Mexicaan gunbots Zara gosa and Bravo, which left Puerto, Mexico last night, had passed Vera Cruz and were steaming toward Tamplco. The American cruiser Tacoma and gunboat Sacramento are following the Hiterta ships.

Several possibilities were discussed in official quarters tonight as liKely arise in view ot tne. prooleni tnai uen eral Huerta's decisive action has presented. houlo the American govern nienv direct that the order to Admiral tiauyei be construed as to Include delivery of contraband of war, Admiral aiayo at Tampico would be compelled to open tire on iiuertas gunooatg it necessary to' prevent interference wi.n the Antilla.

if tnls were considered overt act of war and a violation of agreement to cease hostilities, It pro Oauiy automatically would end the peace conference at Niagara Falls, iii the opinion of many who are in close touch with the Washington administration, this would mean the beginning of actual hostilities against tne Huerta government and signal the 'advance ot an American army from Vera Crus toward Mexico City.

The only American ships now at Tampico are tha battleship Minnesota, outside the I'anuco river, and the Monitor Ozark In the river, which temporarily serves as Rear Admiral Mayo's nagsnip. These vessels, however, would be more than deqtiate to cope with any situation tliat might arise in view of the proposed 'blockade.

Fearful that events may transpire there posuibly within the next forty eight hours of a nature that would be certain to mediation negotiations, many of the principals of the conference here are filled with apprehension.

The anxiety Is prorolred because of the situation in which the United States has been placed by General Huerta's determination to bottle up the port of Tampico go as to stop the landing of munitions of war for use of the Constitutionalists, from the Cuban ship Antilla, which Is en route from New York.
