TAFT ISIN CHICAGO
PRESIDENT MAKES IMPORTANT
ADDRESS ON CONSERVATION
AND THE TARIFF.
IRISH CITIZENS HIS HOSTS
Visit of Chief Executive Occasion for
Memorable Observance of St. Pat
rick's Day—Is Honored 2t Recep
tions and Banquets.
Chicago. Mar. IT—With President
Taft as a guest of the city. Si. Pat
rick's day in Chicago will go down in
the annals as one long to be remem
bered by the Irish Fellowship club
which claimed the greater share of
the chief executive's attention after
his arrival at eight o'clock this morn
ing.
President Taft came into the city
on a private car attached to a Penn
sylvania train. He left the car at the
Thirty-third street station where a
great crowd had gathered to greet
him. As the president stepped to the
platform of the car. the celebrated
Taft smile showing, the crowd sent up
a roaring cheer, which caused the
smile to broaden. Old friends rushed
forward to shake the presidential
hand.
The police and soldiers quickly
cleared a pathway for the president
and members of his party, and they
were led to waning automobiles.
Bands Play Irish Airs.
The sons and daughters of old Erin
have been plauning for weeks their
greeting to the president and all
along the line of march to the hotel
the president was greeted by bands
playing Irish airs, waving of the stars
and stripes and green flags and a dis
play of shamrocks.
rise Seventh regim tit. Illinois Na
tional Guard. Chicago's crack Irish reg
inient. acted as the escort from the
station to the Hotel I.a Salle.
The president's flag was waving
from the hotel flag pole ns the Taft
auto drew up at the curb. Secret serv
ice r.’.en were everywhere, and scores
of detectives were in the crowd that
was held back by bluer oats and sol
diers.
Talks on the Tariff.
The president rested in his apart
rner.ts. received visits front personal
friends, state, city and national offi
cials. and at 12: SO was guest at a
luncheon in the hotel, given by E. M
Hines, chairman of the presidential
reception committee. In an address
at the luncheon the president talked
on the tariff.
Shortly before three he again en
tered an automobile and was whirled
to the Auditorium, where he spoke to
a crowd that jammed the great as
sembly ball. The president talked of
conservation of the natural resources
and his hearers were not long in dis
covering that the 'policy of Theodore
Roosevelt on the great national ques
tion is still that of President Taft. The
Ballinger-Pinchot quarrel, which re
sulted in the ousting of the latter and
a congressional probe of the methods
of the former gave the president op
portunity of saying some pointed
things about his plans for the future
and what already has been done
Receptions and Banquet.
Following his speech the president
was hurried to the Hamilton club,
where a reception in his honor was
held.
Then he was whisked back to the
Hotel Er. Salle in the big auto and the
Irish Fellowship club of Chicago gave
a reception for him. This was followed
at sis o'clock by a banquet at the
hotel, given by the Irish Fellowship
club. Here the president delivered
another address
