I do not Intimate that this is Jhe only way to , secure elasticity. I only ray It In one way, ' no element of Inflation, but would afford I a vary respectable cushion against sudden , financial concussions, and few people ask i more. There Is nothing original or novel In the scheme. It is simply, the German ..plan slightly modified to conform to -our present system. ,'. ' t- Banks fa Good Condition.' And yet Important as the element of elasticity may be, It Is not an essential i to our prosperity. During the month of - August, Vkfi, the associated banks of New York hd an average surplus ubove their required reserve of $10,Ou0.uOO. During Au gust. 1903. they had a surplus reserve in their vaults .of 22,000,000. In the meantime the trust "companies la that city Increased the reserve In their vaults $16,000,000. I have good reason to- believe, in fact, I have every positive assurance that banks gen . erally have safeguarded themselves ma terially. Ths, shook that was felt In every central reserve city and promptly com municated" to every, local money center from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast and from the chain of lake3 to the gulf on September 29, 1902, as was then predicted, r has proven a blessing. Wherever that ' shock waa felt a little more care has been ; exercised that It be not repeated In 19u3. 1 am not saying that 'It wUl not be re- peated. . I am making no protection. I am 1 simply saying that during August, 1903, the , banks of New York, and I believe the banks i throughout the country, were In better condition to face the annual demand for r money with whloh to move crops and with . Which to put winter stocks of goods In the stores , and with which to purchase the winter supply of coal tl)an they were twelve "', months ago. ..... In closing this branch of the' esse, as we ii lawyers say, I want to. lay down this I proposition: There exlnt.today no one fnct rtnd not combination of facts the. logical T sequence qt which suggests disaster, if l. disaster comes It wli be psyf hologloal and hot logical. The microbe, If If, exists, .la in the mind,; it Is not elsewhere. . 1 - , Balance of International Trade.

This Is not a political gathering, and we are not expected to have political desires; but we are expected to havo pretty good business sense, and to that business sense I make appeal when I auk, how shall we acquire more - markets? There are three ways suggested. One Is to voluntarily and gratuitously aet our doors more ' or less widely ajar and permit more freedom of importation, In the hope' that other poun fries will set their doors more or less widely sjar and jjlve us greater' freedom, of -exportation, fioine of you gentlemen c are importers, and after this meeting ad journs I wo'uld like to Inquire whether you, C In making your purchases abroad, glvs pref erences to tnose countries wnit-n ravor us with an open door, or do you buy where .1 ou can oDtain tne desired article to the eat advantage?

Consid erable has been eald along this line, but not very much has been actually accomplished. I do not wish to discuss the merits of these methods, but I do wish to suggest a third, and I sincerely believe the only method by which we will ever get our share of the commerce of South American and South African countries and of the is lands lying south of the equator. The policy which resulted In creating the" com merce of the Pacific slope was subsidising lines of communication with the Pad no Slope. When the first transcontinental lines of railway were built there was not suf ficient commerce to pay operating expense, to say nothing of dividends on investments. Few business men and fewer politicians objected to government aid to transconti nental lines during the development period of the commerce along these lines. These railways need no assistance now. No busi ness man objects to government aid to the commerce of our navigable rivers and no folltlcal party objects to large expend! ures on non-navigable streams. Improve ments to rivers snd harbors la subsidy to the commerce of rivers and harbors. If we ever secure the trade of the countries to which I have referred, we will first se cure regular- lines of communication with these countries, and If we ever secure. these lines assistance must be afforded. Who of you, owning a steamship, would aivert it from participation In transatlantic com merce where there Is much to be done, and send it on regular trips to countries where we have tittle or no commerce? Do not misunderstand me. I am not mourning the defeat of any ship Subsidy bill, but I shall mourn exceedingly the defeat of a bill. If any such shall ever he introduced, which. If enacted, would In sure regular lmes of American ships. -.rlylniT tne American nag, ana carrying American rerch -t- and r.oTimerclal travelers, with their wares and merchandise, the product of American labor. Into those countries to which I have referred. Such a bill must offer speclaj advantages to ships plying be tween our rtorts and countries where our trade is undeveloped.

Family and Seems to Be Demented. OYSTER BAT, Sept. J A man giving bis name as Henry Wellbrenner waa arrested at Sagamore Hill late last n.ght while malt ing a persistent demand to see president Roosevelt. ' The man was armed $vilh a revolver fully loaded. He was taken to th village and placed In the town prison. Shortly after 10 o'clock last night Well brenner drove to Sagamore Hill In a phaeton buggy. He was stopped by the secret service operative on duty. Well brenner said ho had a personal engage ment with the president and desired to see him. As it was long after the hours when visitors are received the officer, declined to permit, him to go to the house. The man insisted, but the officer turned him away. Soon after Wellbrenner returned and again insisted that he be allowed to see the president if only for a nlnute. This time he was ordered away and warned not to return. Insists I'poa Seeing; President. Just before 11-o'clock the man returned a third time and demanded qf the officer that he should be permitted to see the president at once. The officer's response was to take the man from his buggy and put him in the otables, where he was placed under tte tuard of two stable nitriT A revolver waa found In the buggy. Later Wellbrenner vat brought to the jail and locked up. ' He Is five' feet six Inches high, has a medium (iaed dark mous tache, black eyes and evidently Is of Ger man descent. lie resides at Syosset, about five miles Inland from Oyster Bay. He waa well dressed In a suit of dark material and wore an old-fashioned derby hat. It Is thought by the officers that Wellbrenner was accompanied by two other men, as their footprints were found in the mud alongside of the buggy tracks. In view of this fact the officer on duty telephoned to the village for assistance and was soon joined by two other secret service men. la a Dangerous Lnnatlo. WhIH Wellbrenner talked rationally to the officers last night it seems evident from his conversation today that he is demented. He said that he had received a telephonic communication fiom the president directing him to call at Sagamore Hill. His buggy waa taken to a local livery barn. When asked what bad become of the rig, Well brenner replied: "Oh, tho president has taken care of It; that's all right." Wellbrenner la regarded by those who have seen him to be a. dangerous lunatlo. , At Syosset it Is learned that the man is the" son of a truck farmer and Is one of three brothers. He has two sisters. The family is respectable and la held in general esteem. Suffer a a Kcrveaa Attack. Wellbrenner several years ago had a nervous at.ack which rendered him men tally helpless for a day or two, but his fam ily supposed that he had been quite re stored by medical treatment he received at that time. Since then he had manifested no symptoms of mental aberration. He had no socialist or anarchistic-tendencies so far as known, never having been interested la any question' of the kind. .

I Justice Franklin questioned the' prisoner about his movements last night. His re plies were made in a quiet tone of voice, but they Indicated apparently beyond a doubt that the man is crazy. Asked why he went to Sagamore Hill, he replied: "I went to see the president about his daughter, Alice," . "Had you an engagement vlth the presi dent?" "Tea." "How waa that. engagement made?", "I talked with the president last night," replied Wellbrenner. "How d.d you talk with him?" "Oh, I Just talked." "A sort of wireless talk, wag It?" "Yes, that la it; a wireless talk." Wants to Marry President's Daughter "Why did you want to see the president about Miss Alice?" "I wanted to marry her." "Did you ever aee Miss Roosevelt?" "Yes, I saw her night before last." "Where did you see her?" 'At my house." "Did ahe go over there?" "Yes, she came In a red automobile." "Who accompanied her?" "Her brother, Theodore." Justice Franklin after the examination concluded he would hold Well brenner un til an inquiry of lunacy could be held upon his case. The examination then was postponed until 6 o'clock this afternoon when physicians who hold certificates en titling them to make Inquiries . Into the sanity of persons Could be present. The examination of Wellbrenner was con tinued this afternoon. Dr. Q. A. Stewart and Dr. Covings Barnes conducted the ex amination. Wellbrenner was declared by them to be insane. He will be placed In the custody of Sheriff Johnson of Nassau county. Wellbrenner was taken to Mlneola, L. I., on an evening train and placed in the cus tody of the county authorities.

' Senator Beverldge came to see the presi dent about some federal appointments In Indiana and to' talk with him about the work of the approaching session of con gress. Pr, Flnley'a call was social. Later the president received I. N. Stev ens, a newspaper man of Pueblo, Colo., and Frank Mead, both of whom de sired to discuss with him some western matters. . Mr. Mead's mission related par ticularly to some Indian affairs. Among other callers upon the president this afternoon were former Representative Julius Kahn of San Francisco, who came to present the president a handsome copy of the addresses which he delivered In California on his western trip last spring, and Major Llewellyn of New Mexico, who was an officer in the President's Rough Riders.

NEW YORK.' Sept. 1. Henry Townsend Edson, son of former Mayor Franklin Ed son, shot and Instantly killed Mrs. Fannie Pullen of 673 West End avenue and then shot and killed himself at his apartment today. The murder and suicide appear to have been premeditated and followed a dramatic scene In .which Edson called upon Mrs. Pullen, a close and honored friend of his wife and family, to desert her husband and children and fly with him to another state. Mrs. Pullen, a very band tome woman, it said to 1 have been the daughter of a United States naval officer. On tha body of the man waa found a letter- in which he asked Mrs. Pullen to meet him, and notice personals In a newspaper. Mrs. Pullen lived with her husband, John F. Pullen, an auditor at the Grand Cen tral station, and her two children. Mrs. Edson spent last night with her friend Mrs. Pullen. She was about to go out this morning when' a note came from Edson. asking that' Mrs. Pullen accompany his wlfa to where' he was. Edson, his wife, Mrs. Pullen and Dr. David EJdson, a brother of Edson, met In EdsoiVa home. During the conversation in the dining room Edson Is said to have turned to Mrs. Pullen and suggested that she leaVs her home with him and go to some other state, where they could be happy. . Mrs. Edson waa horrified. Mrs. Pullen turned away In dis gust. Dr. Edson,' after sharply rebuking his brother, left the room with Mrs. Ed son, but both returned In a few minutes, when Edson again turned to Mrs. Pullen and began to -entreat her to elope With him. Mrs. Pullen was horrified at the suggestion. After further - talk Edson pulled a revolver from his pocket and pointing It at Mrs. Pullen shouted: "You must go with me. Tf you don't elope with me I'll see that you go with me anyway." In terror Mrs.' Pullen started to run from the room. She had gone but a few steps when four pistol shots rang out In quick succession. The first Uullct tore Mrs. Pul- len's left cheek and the second entered tha right clde of her head. - According to Wood, an cye-wltneas, Edson looked at the woman for a moment and then turned the muzzle of the revolver to his own head, firing two shots almost simultaneously. Both entered about the middle of the fore head and he fell, his head striking and resting on the feet of Mrs. Pullen's body. Mr. Pullen, the husband of the mur dered woman,' Who is a vestryman of St. Michael's church, made a statement ' to night In which he branded Edson as a de faulter and forger and said he had stolen the funds of ,8L Michael's Episcopal church.

She says: "She had nervous dyspepsia for several years and when an attack came on she would go to a physician and get some relief up to last year when she had the Grip which left her very weak and then her stomach collapsed and refused to re tain anything but the very simplest foods. Soon she coj'.d not eat even those and for seven days she had no nourishment but raw egg and milk and she was told by a physi cian that a change of air and scene might restore her to partial health but she would never again be well and woujd probably die of consumption of the bowels. '"She always complained of terrible dis tress after eating which was soon followed by vomiting yet she was so hungry all the time that ahe would try to eat. One day she read an article about Grape-Nuts and asked her father to get some and he went out and bought a package. She took a tablespoonful moistened with a little milk. The taste was delicious and satisfying and to every one's surprise there was absolutely no ps.li! or trouble In her stomach after eating it. "After a couple of hours she called for some more Grape-Nuts and this time the amount was doubled and toon after eating It she fell Into a sound, natural sleep, sleeping for several hours, something she had not done since her illness without the aid of morphine. She continued to use Grape-Nuts alone for one week Improving rapidly all the time and then began to In crease her diet a( her returning strengtn and appetite made this possible. "Four months from the time' she first commenced the use of Grape-Nuts she be came a comparatively healthy girl quite strong and vigorous, eating, sleeping and working much better than she had done for years. She and all of her friends feel that she owes her life to the scientific food Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum Co., rattle Creek, Mich.

Ho said In regard to the attitude of the next ses sion of congress toward linanclal and cur rency Questions: Every careful student of American af fairs knows that this Is the one great civ ilized country In the world -which experi enced financial panics. When I say finan cial panics I mean a different thing from commercial depression. In a commercial depression men curtail their business and do not care to use capital. In a financial panic, on the other hand, men engaged In legitimate enterprises and with their affrtlrs in perfectly Solvent con dition are unable to obtain at the banks the credit to which they are accustomed and entitled. Through this condition per fectly solvent concrns are driven to the wall. Thoughtful men all over the country realize that our financial system has not yet been perfected. The rMfrlriiliy Is that among financial-experts ther. Is a marked disagreement aa to what should be 1nne. It stems certain that certain phases of the question will come up In congress within the next year. FOR NON-ALCOHOLiclToSPITAL Fraaels K.
