FIRST WHITE MAN WHO

i
Prarerbook Fonnd Indicating Father
DeSmet'a Visit Antedates that
uf Coulter.
LANDER, Wyo., June 10. (Special.)
Willie excavating under ah old barn here
yesterday Kev. Father Moore unearthed a
Catholic prayerbook, In a splendid state of
preservation, bearing on the cover the let
ters "met," which were later deciphered
as the last three letters of the name Father
DeSmet, the Jesuit priest who visited Wy
oming and mingled with the Indians far in
advance of the coming of any other white
man. The rolle also establishes the fact
that Father DeSmet's viBit to Wyoming
antedates that of Coulter, the discoverer of
the Yellowstone National park. The dis
covery is regarded as of great vtlue, for
the historians of the country have been at
loggerheads over the question as to who
was the first white man to come to Wy
oming. The book will be treated to a
preparation for the purpose of preserving
It, and will then be sent to the Smith
sonian Institution.
WASHINGTON. June 10. -President Tnfl
yesterday declined to receive IteprcFentatiw
Francis Burton Harrison, democrat, of
New York, who called at the White House
In company with two other representatives
to Introduce) a number of Jewish rabbts,
who took up with the president the ques
tion of the exoulslon of Jews from KiiKsla.
The president received the delegation and
chatted with Its various members for fif
teen minutes or mor-, Representative tlold
foRlo of New York acted as spokesman
for the party and so adroitly had the sit
uation been handled by Secretary Norton
(hat none of the culler; knew of the Inci
dent until liepreseiilatlve Hanlon re
turned to the capltol and there stated that
ho had been rebuffed by the president.
Mr. Taft based his refural to see Mr.
Harrison on statements attributed by news
papers to the representative In connection
with his resolution In the house calling
upon Attorney General WIekersham for
full Information as to the connection of
his office with tho Halllnger-PInchot ep-lucde.
Mr. Harrison, nccoriilnj; to the White
House version of the matter, charged the
president and the attorney general with
having wilfully attempted to mislead con
gress In the bank-dating of the attornej
general's summary of the Ulavls charges.
White House Version.
Secretary Norton was at first unwilllnpr
to discuss the Incident. Later, when he
was Informed of the statements made' by
Mr. Harrison, he told the story. He said
the president had no purpose of publicly
humiliating the congressman, and that
nothing would have been said regarding
the affair if Mr. Harrison had not made
the matter public.
IV r. Norton said that during the conprres
clonal receiving hour he noticed the party
of rabbin awaiting admission to the presi
dent's office. He Informed the president of
their presence. Mr. Taft anounced that he
would be glad to receive every member of
the delegation but Mr. Harrison. '
Secretary Norton thereupon . Invited Mr.
Harrison into his office. Meantime he hart
the party shown Into the president's office.
When the two were alone the secretary
told Mr.' Harrison the president would not
see him.
Mr. Harrison asked If others In the party
knew that the president hod barred him,
and Mr. Norton replied that no one knew
but they two.
Mr. Norton asserted the president him
self had no previous knowledge that Mr.
Harrison was to be one of his callers to
day. The engagement had been made In
the routine way some ten days ago through
the secretary's office.
Harrison Makes Statement.
Representative Harrison tonight made the
following statement:
"It Is unfortunate for the president that
he cannot sti.nd criticism; It Is unfortunate
for the country thathe cannot stand the
truth. My newspaper statement at which
he takes offenso was merely an exposi
tion of the scandalous fact that the presi
dent had sen, to the senate of. the United
Btates -n official document In the Ball-
Inger-Plnchot controversy of which . the
date .had been wilfully falslslfled by being
pie-dated. My resolution of Inquiry drew
out tills Information In a written con
fession by the attorney general.
"It Is of no concern to me that I am
not welcome- at the White House, but it
Is of concern to every American citizen
that a statement of the truth about the
president may mane u impossioie ior a
representative to discharge his duties.
"I 'went to the White House today not
as a maner oi pleasure, put in the ex
pectation of a public duty. 1 went by ap
pointment made by the presidential office
on May 31 to present a delegation of dis
tinguished Hebrews on an important public
mission.
After a delay of forty minutes, at the
very door of the president's office 1 was
told that the piesldent.would not receive
me. It is not surprising that he did not
care, to face any one who was instru
mental In bringing to light the desperate
attempt to bolster t lie administration
rase In the Ilalilnger-Pinrhot matter by
manipulating public documents. If every
ono who Is Justly criticising the Taft ad
ministration is to bn birred from the!
White House it will become a lonely
place."
Representative (loldfoslc stated tonight,
as had Representative Kellllur that had
ho known Mr. Harrison was not to be
received nt the White House he also would
have refused tc go In.

ST. LOUIS, Mo., .June 10. Surgery as tho j
proper remedy ror appenaicms in ns eariy
stages was advocated by Dr. H. C. Deaver
of Philadelphia before the convention of
the American Medical association this aft
ernoon. That appendicitis attacks children
more frequently than has been recognized
was the tneory navancea Dy me pnyaiciun.
The "insurgents" were defeated at the
annual election of officers, when Dr. John
B. Murphy of Chicago wajt chosen president
for the term beginning In 1911. George It.
Simmons, also of Chicago, who last Tues
day resigned, was again elected secretary.
Dr. G. F. Frank Lydwton, the leader of the
."insurgents," was not present. Simmons
has served continuously since 1898.
Los Antselea was selected for the next
convention In 1811. The house of delegates
today began an Investigation Into a report

tle raiment, before members of the section
on surgery. .
It was Dr. A. H. Chase of Texas who,
during the election of officers, placed Sim

doing so criticized the Insurgents.
"It is bad policy to change secretaries at
the suggestion of the enemy," he said. "We
can't afford to have these malcontent's pub
llsh all over the country that they caused
reforms In our organization."
After this speech Simmons arose and said
he would accept If It was the wish of the
i convention. A rising vote followed. Ir,
Murphy's only opponent was Dr. Abram
