ATHENS. O.. Aug. M.-Jud- Taft today
paid a brief visit to this city. He delivered
an- address- to the veterans while here.
Mr. Taft aaid:
"Mrs. Taft and I are glad to be able
oft our trip to Middle Bass island from Hot
Springs, to enjoy the hopltallty of Athens,
even for so short a period as three hours.
Athens, as the seat of a atate university,

portance In the state. Our. stay Is

It caaana tht there are passing away
from this world to another, 10.000 men a

were made to save her are revived In

Many Distlag-aUhed Veterans. ,
Mr. .Taft, spoke , of men who had tdl
tlngulshed themselves in the civil war.
"Thera was Colonel Nnye. who .lost ' his
leg in the war," he continued. "He was
governor of the state of Ohio, ambassador
to France and finally judge of the superior
court of Cincinnati upon which bench I
had tha honor to be his colleague. He ha
now gone to W. long reward. Then there
are your own General Orosvenor, stljl
active, stili militant, and -many others
whom I cannot now stop toname.
' "What I am specially glad to note In this
reunion la that the veterans of the civil
war welcome association with the veteran
of the Spanish and Philippine war. It is
true that the Bpoanlsh war wa a very
short one, and that the dangers of losses
of men were very ' small In comparison
with those of the civil war. Yet it In
volved the same love of country and the
same spirit of patriotism on the part of
those who entered the army for the pur
pose of fighting that war that led to the
outpouring of the volunteers In the civil
war. . Th same thing la tme of the
Philippine war. "The fact that there were
som of our country men. who opposed
to the Philippine war and who condemned
tb government for attempting to suppress
the rebellion and to produce tranquility,
Is sometimes used to disparage the
patrtotlo feeling and courage of those who
went to thoae far distant Islands to up

try, under the direction of their commander-in-chief.

POLICE ON WILLIAMS' TRACK
Hit Movement on Day of Roberts'
Shooting- Being- Traced.
SEEMS TO ESTABLISH AN ALIBI
OPIeera Abandon Theory that Crime
"Was .Committed by Illahvray

of Wound.
BALTIMORE. Met.. Aug. .-Vllllam
B.. G. Williams, whosa wife was with
Charles B. Roberts when the latter was
shot at Atlantic City, last Wednesday
night, was interviewed by polico detec
tives today. Williams. It was learned,
seemingly sallnfled the officers ' that he
was not in Atlantic City on the day snd
night In question. The dttectlve, It was
said, will visit " Mr. Williams" home at
Long Orepn tonight to verify statements
made by Williams.
Mr. William told the detective that he
slept at Ms Long Green home from noon
last Wednesday and nightly until Friday
morning. His statement wa verified by
his colored butler. It I understood Mr.
William sought the Interview with the de
tectives. Roberts Mar Die.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J.. As. .-Charles
B. Roberts, who was mysteriously shot on
the board walk last Wednesday Mght, is
still in the Atlantic City hospital and is
very weak. The bullet, which penetrated
the liver, it Is feared, caused a wound
which may prove fatal. The pojlce are
firm In the belleJF that the solution of the
mystery surrounding the shooting will fol
low an investigation of the movement of
W. 8. Q. William on the day of th hoot
ing. .
The allegation that Williams had been
in a sanitarium undergoing treatment and
not abroad was made to the police by hi
wife, who wa with Robert In a rolling
chain at the time of the shooting. Accord
ing to the police, she contradlt a state
ment given out from Williams- law offic.
The police of this city have entirely aban
doned th theory that the assailant of the
Baltimore man wa a highwayman. They
are awaiting a report from th Baltimore
authorities,' who are tracing the where
abouts and actions of Mr. Williams on ths
night of the shooting. '
Two disclosures just made by the negro
who was pushing the chair In which Rob
erts and , Mr. William were riding are
considered important by the police.
,- ptegrro Ulvea Information.
When questioned In regard to the conver
sation which passed between Roberts and
Mrs. Williams during the chair ride, Jesse
Jackson, the negro, said:
"I did not bear ar thing except one re
mark of th gentleman. I heard him say
Just beforo th man with a mask came up
to us: "You have broken my heart." I
did not hear what the lady answered."
' In addition to the fact first related by
him In regard to th shooting, Jackson
now says that the masked stranger applied
an epithet to Roberts as he ordered him to
get out of the chair. The negro also In
sists that he heard no demand for money
following th first order, 'Hold up your
handel"
Malcom Woodruff, - chief of-police, aaid
today: i "
: "The highwayman theory haa had lltti
weight' with !u from the first..- The shoot
ing1 occurred -at 10:39 o'clock. Ths wounded
man was taken to th hospital and the
woman back to her hotel. As soon a .
learned that she was not hi wife I asked!
'Where ts her husband?' I sent severs),
messages to' Baltimore before 12 o'clock
that night, asking the police there to let
me know at once whether Willi m wss In
that city. I believed that a quick answer
to that question would go far toward solv
ing the mystery. I snxlously awaited
reply. None came and I have not heard
a word sine from the Baltimore police on
that feature.
Married Life Unhappy,
"Harry Wilson, on of my detectives, Is
now at work on it. Many things that Mrs.
William has told us of her husband art
important a showing their feeling toward
each other. She said that her eighteen years
of married life have been misery to her.
Thre times, she declared, she has hkd her
husband put In a sanitarium. Last Tues
day tie left the sanitarium and went to
Baltimore. According to hi wife' asser
tion, he called her up at th Hotel Brigh
ton .and asked her to com home with the
children. Bh refused, saying she preferred
to remain until Saturday.
"In th conversatlln William became
aware that Robert wa also at the Brigh
ton. AH this Mr. Williams told us. I be
lieve that It is the truth, but I also believe
that if her husband came to Atlantic City
from Baltimore that day she wa not aware
of it."
Further evidence of the desire of the fam
ilies of the principals in the affair to sup
port the "highwayman" theory was given
today by County Prosecutor Goldenberg of
Atlantlo county.

a constant exchange ot salutes. BIrens
screeched a welcome and cannon boomed
from the decks of the Australian pleasure

were constantly . being dipped In answer.

ships resounded over tha placid waters of
the bay and were re-echoed by the sur
rounding hill.

American fleet in this port ha seen little
of the ceremony, as Monday is the day set
