ETHAN ALLEN ON ROOSEVELT. Old-Time Republican Gives Unmerciful Scoring to Party's Candidate for Presidency. Colonel Elhaa Allen a tirominent member iu. muii iriV-iigu. inn oi eiHuiiaiiao iuu chairman of tbe Liberal Republican National Committee ia IS'.

2, a close friend of James Blaine and one of the most active of his supporters tn the presidential campaign of will vote for Juiige Parker, and tn an Interview to-day he gave his reasons for so doing in language quite as "strenuous" as Mr. Koosevclt usually employs when arraigning his political enemies. "I have not taken an active part in this campaign," said Colonel Allen, "for personal reasons, i would like to got out among the people and tell them what I know of -Mr. Roosevelt, and what, as an old-time Republican. I think of his political career.

Now. while I seek no personal notoriety, i do not mind saying that your question is to tbe point, and 1 will give you a straight answer. will not vote for Roosevelt. "1 am a Republican but I have always been an independent citizen that Is. I never could see the virtue of surrendering my conscience to the caprice of a political boss, who, usually, is a acoundrel.

As a rule, 1 have voted ihe Republican ticket, and I am free to do so again whenever my Judgment approves of the candidate, and tbe platform. This year 1 am unable to vote for the Republican candidate for President, and I shall certainly vote for Judge Parker. "1 have no personal against Mr Roosevelt. Personalty, we are friends, so far as I know. I have known him from bis youth up, but never asked a favor of him in my life, so have never been refused.

It is upon his record that I condemn him, and as good citizen will not. give blm my vole, that he may moke a football of my country, as his whims move him. 1 do not believe that, politically speaking, he has an honest hair in his head. In my judgment, there is hardly any length to which be would not go to advance his political ambition. Grant once said: 'I voted for Buchanan because I knew So I may say 1 shall vote for Parker because I know Roosevelt.

To begin wilb. who is this man that be should soar so high? What public service haa he ever rendered to Justify his present attitude before the people? Before an assassin n-ade him President of the United States, no really notable act stood to his credit. He Is an advertised product. like a sarsaparilla or a corn salve. In a political sense he has never traveled In a straight and honest lino, but bis course has been reoe tortuous than an Egyptian labyrinth.

His profession has been that of an office seeker, and be has been equally shrewd and successful in all his political relations. Tarties have not been able to change more quickly than he could. In order that he might be available for some office. No man can pursue this course without running perilously near lo the charge of and having no rlxcd prin ciples. Colonel Allen gave many reasons for his refusal to support the Republican candidate.

Mr. Roosevelt, he declared, bitterly opposed the nomination of James G. Blaine for the presidency; he was vulgarly insolent to the men be had appointed on the Panama Canal Commission in a letter to the members of the commission, first declaring his confidence In their hieb ideals of citizenship and In their devotion to duty, and then telling them he would remove them forthwith if they swerved from the high standard he had In mind. Mr. Roosevelt's Cuban war record was taken tip and his acts at San Juan Hill were ridiculed.

It was charged that be had villified General Winflcld Scott and other dead heroes and had shabbily treated General Miles, Admiral Schley and other living ones. As a "trust buster," Colonel Allen scored the President. In conclusion ho said: "Theodore Roosevelt Is a man of contradictions. "Hp is an independent who is sycophantic to power. "He is a 'Irust buster' who safeguards trusts and will not 'run "He Is a hero who never fought a battle.

"He is a man of truth, whose word is not worth a Continental damn." PATTERNS. PRtXCKriS WRAPPER MM.

A rally of the Prohibition party was held last night at Pentacosllal Church, I'tK-a avenue, near Dean street. Instead of the customary campaign songs, hymca were sung by the audience. Tbe speakers were Hejiry T. Hinsch and Robert E. Neldig.

Prayer was of fered by the Rev. Mr. Davis, after which George II. Warwick was unanimously chosen chairman. Mr.

Warwick said a few words lo regard to Ihe Prohibitionists' platform and thto introduced Henry T. Hinsch. Mr. Hinsch said the Prohibition party stood for the abolition of liquor from the country at large, boon use liquor Is a detriment to the moral and social condition of tbe country. He explained that fifty-one per cent, of the Inmates of the insane asylums of tne country to-day were there as the result ot drinking liquor.

He also showed that per cent, of Ihe criminals of the ccuntry were sent to prison on account of liquor. A very strong argument presented by Mr. Hinsch was that three Presidential asBassius came from saloons Immediately before committing their crimes. He said that $1,400,000,000 was spent annually on liquor, more than it cost tbe country to pay lis entire operating expenses. Mr.

Neldig. wno w-aa connected who tne Sam Parks' case, being president of tho de frauded union, followed. Mr. Neldig showed that the selling of liquor should be prohibited because it was a disgrace to the human race. A few remarks by Mr.

Warwick and tbe Rev. Mr. Davis were followed by the bene diction. ooooQooooeooeoooe Among the Schools, oeoooooooooooo oneoooeooooo'i Manual Training Eigh School. The Halloween party given by the class of February, '03, at W.

I. Stillwnll's, Friday evening last, was a grand success. The class was well represented. Just before supper the lights were lowered and Miss Casey related a ghost story. At a critical moment a ghost and two live chickens appeared on the scene.

The affirmative will be upheld by Grtince and Fredsall and (he negative by Benrdsley and Spencer. As Commercial's team foiled to put in an appearance last Saturday, Manual's basket ball team played two halves with scrub teams from the school.

It was decided tn hold the next meeting at Curtis High School and all future meetings in the main buildings of Manual. INVENTOR HAS A SCHEME That Would Work Wonders, but Requires Millions. All the knotty transportation problems that have troubled men since Chicago first became a port are about to be solved.

Lieutenant Henry Harrison Cleveland has the solution. Ever hear of a ship railway? That's tho thing Lieutenant Cleveland has Invented. From St. Joe to Detroit, he intends building a four-track railway that is Intended to cheat the Canadian Government out of the wheat traffic, fool Jim Hill, put a crimp In the plans of King Edward, make Chicago and St. Joe tho biggest and best places in the world, and make his own name Immortal, Lieutenant Cleveland is not without experience as an inventor.

He designed and tried lo sell a patented whip socket, and a new fanglcd check rein. He says the automobiles have killed olt the whip industry and incidentally destroyed business in whip sockets. He also overs that so many horses have gone to the glue factories that check reins are almost valueless. With tho J1O.OO0.0OO which he expects to pick up somewhere. Lieutenant Cleveland will build an elevated railroad that will make tbe New York Central look like a track at a mine dump.

And Instead of trains this road will be traversed by ships, which, after creeping out of Lake Michigan and drying their hulls in the sun that ripens Michigan peaches, will point their prows toward Detroit and never stop going until they dip again Into the water and start tor Buffalo. Lieutenant Cleveland has been writing from his Chicago address to various of-ficials In Washington and begging their assistance, He has a pocketful of lotters from Ihe secretaries of various government office holders. The usual form of the letters which Lieutenant Cleveland proudly exhibits to prove that his scheme is making headway reads like this: "I beg leave to acknowledge the receipt of your letter. It will be referred to Hon. So and So." Lieutenant Clevelan-my that the officials nt.

Washington wno know of his plan aro keeping still about it to prevent some other nation from building ship railways wherever Journey could be cut In two or wherever national pride compelled some such action ACCOUNTED FOR.

J. Cassldy, William J. Drew and George V. Cooney the Cathedral Club has announced for tbe first of Its large dances this novel plan. Friday week is to be Its date and the Pouch its scene.

"High Life below Stairs" is to be the motto of Ihe night. Esch and every guest will come as "Mary" or as "Jeems." The idea of waiters and waitresses will be carried out faithfully, and it is believed with much merriment and realism. Tbe Pouch ball room and ante rooms will be made into an up to date eating house for the evening. The premises are that all the guests arc maid servants and men servants who are taking advantage of an "evening out." Each girl must come in a priut housemaid's dress with an apron and little French cap. No other costume will be allowed on the floor.

As a prominent Cathedral Club man puts It. "Mistresses are to be down and out for this night." Nor will any Imitations of "department store ladles" be allowed. Upon reaching the men's dressiug room each roan will be taken in charge by a sturdy board of deputies of the committee and obliged to peel off hia evening coat. Ho will then bo bustled into a white waiter's jacket with a badge and provided with a pad. Thereupon he may Join the especial maid servant he has brought, who meantime haa been thoroughly.

Inspected by tee patronesses, who have majestically concluded to "dispense with a reference." Tho dance orders will be menu cards, cleverly adapted to the fun of the evening. Tho commiuee will serve as head waiters. Tho novelty of the affair is taking like wildfire, and there are already a groat array of subscribers. The patronesses of the night are to be: Mrs. John H.

ion and Department ot the East reviewed the Forty-seventh Regiment last night. The review was taken In the pres. eme of a brilliant gathering that completely filled the large galleries of the handsomt drill hall. The scene throughout was sufficient io arouse the enthusiasm of tin grizzled veterans, and it was ui.t surpris mg lo have II taken up by Ihe audience. The regiment was deserving of tho applause it teceived, as the ceremonies were the first io be given by a local organization thi season, and the regiment was the first to undertake maneuvers under the new.

or revisedi drill regulations. There was also the pleas. Ing feature that what portion of the nen regulations were undertaken were accomplished without any glaring mistakes, and also that there was a large attendance ol guardsmen. The latter presented a fine appearance In full dress state service uniform, with new web belts snd Krag-JorgenseO rifles. Brigadier General Grant was accompanied by five members of his staff, Including Colonel Hashtard, Colonel Smith, Major Weaver, Major Todd and Captain Skerrett.

They were much pleased with the excellent showing made by the organization and complimented) Brevet Brigadier General John G. Eddy, tho commander of (he regiment. General Grant, with the members of hi" staff, was met at the Battery, in Manhattan, by two of tho staff officers of tbe Forty-. seventh snd driven direct to the armory. A detail of guardsmen acting as a guard, escorted the visitors to the room of General Eddv.

where they were welcomed by the officers of the regiment, together with may; nrorainent members of the Veteran Association of the regiment, including General J. V. Meserole. Captain Courtlandt St. John and General McLeer, commander of the Sec.

ond Brigade. The guests arrived on tlma and. promptly at 8:15 o'clock, tbe assembly sounded and Ihe regiment prepared for the opening ceremony of review. In the mean time the galleries filled rapidly and were crowded with a select gathering, when General Grant and his staff, together with mem bers of the veteran organization, were es corted to seats on the reviewing stand. Tha.

appearance of General Grant was the signal for hearty applause, which he recognized by lifting his hat. The regiment was in com mand of General Eddy while tbe First Battalion, composed of Companies A. D) and was commanded by Major Thomas E. Jackson, and the Second Battalion, composed of and was In command of Major Harry B. Baldwin.

The cere monies consisted of review and parade, the. drill under the new regulations being omitted, for the reason that It was considered the regiment was not sufficiently pro ficient, but its formations were made without an error. One of the features of the. new regulations was that, between the front and rear ranks, a distance of forty Inches be maintained at times, whether im Una or In column. Another feature Was that, while passing in review, the order" "eyes right" brought faces around and eyes on tho reviewing stand.

Instead of directly ahead, as In the old drill. The effect was good. During the review, General Grant and his staff were escorted by General Eddy and the regimental staff, while the regimental band played "Sweet. Adeline." Tho drill being omitted, the regimental parado followed, wiih the usual attendant ceremonies, with the exception that the officers of the companies marched abreast snd. saluted, returned In the same manner, and carried their respective companies off tha floor.

Tho majors and their staff retired to the left and right. In retiring, the regiment marched "companies front," with "eyes right." The marching was also very creditable, each company maintaining good alignment. Company made a fine showing in this respect, the entire company ot ninety-two belrig present. Following the military exercises in the large hall General Grant and his staff were formally presented to the officers of tho regiment and many other puminent guests in the council of officers room, and later were entertained in another part of the armory. In the meantime tho enliBted men and their friends took up dancing to music furnished by the regimental band- The Thirteenth Regiment is making elaborate planB for the reviews of the regiment bv Controller Grout and Mayor McClellan.

The. first-iiamed review will take place Do-cembe-r 20 and Mayor McClellan will review the regiment January 26. Headquarters night at the Thirteenth, Inst ninht. was a very dull affair. The men are taking more interest in polities, Just, now, than they ore in milltaj-y affairs.

The Thirteenth is expected lo liven up considerably after election is over. The Thirteenth, in common with all armories, will he closed next Tuesday night. The law prescribes that all armories shall he closed election day. As a consequence it will be necessary to move headquarters night to Thursday night. MONTH'S MORTALITY.

speaking of things In their ordinary course. In a country of here can be no patriotism. Thee may be a party spirit, hut public spirit there can be none. As to a spirit of liberty, still less can it exist, or Anything like It. A liberty made up proscrtption, ages, four- fifihs.

perhaps, of the inhabitants of all ranks and fortunes! In what does such liberty differ from the description of tbe most shocking kind of servitude? But, it will be said. In that country some people are free. V. ny, this is the very description of despotism. Partial freedom ia privilege nd prerogative, and not liberty.

Liberty, sucb aa deserves the name, is an honest, equitable, diffusive and Impartial principle. It is a great end enlarged virtue, and not a sordid. sclH-h and illiberal vice. It is the portion of the mass of tbe citliens. and not the taught; license 'of some potent individual or some predominate fnction.

Brief Synopsis of the Issues. have already detained you too long and therefore am obliged to omit calling your attention to other issues which divide the parties. Among those issues are these: Administrative exiravagatice must be checked. "There must be equal opportunity for all and special privilege for none. "This shall remain 'a government of laws, not of "There must be a reform of the tariff.

"This nation will no more hold another people in perpetual bondage than If will tolerate the enslaving of individuals hy Its citizens. "Overwhelming in importance as are these Issues, above them tower the questions: the partnership between the llepub. lican leaders and the trusts continue, with profit to both and hurt to the country? "Shall the trust contributions ot millions to the campaign secure the right to continue the w-rongful taking of many millions a year from the people?" In his speech at Jersey City Judge Parker said: "We are passing through a great contest, and as much as 1 want to win this battle for the Democracy. I don't wont to win it for myself. I do not want to win it by the methods employed by our opponents.

If I did nor believe that at the end of four years as President, of this country I had been able to make some advance for the good of our people, I would not want to be elected."

SECOND CAST IN "PAJJSIFAL." The second performance of Mr.

Savage's "Parsifal" in English at the New York Theater last night revealed the great strength of his company. There was a second conductor, Moritz Grimm, and new singers for Kundry, Parsifal, Amfortas, Gurnemanz and Kllngaor. The effect created was wonder that so good and moving a performance ot such a difficult work could be given. If opera In English is not really acclimated at laBt the fault Is with the public not with Mr. Savage.

This rendering of Wagner's last work was reverent and competent and it carries a far more forcible impression to auditors not of German birth than those at the Metropolitan, because the English text is sung for the most part so that it can be beard. In Mr. Savage's other English opera company they carry a large banner with "Words," "Words," "Words" painted across in large loiters three times. When a new theater is reached the first duty is to tack this banner up to the back of the drop curtain so that no Binger can cross the stage without being reminded ot the fact that his first duty is to sing so that he can be understood. The effect of that, device was audible In the fine enunciation of the singers during the recent engagement in Brooklyu and something like it must have been done for the singers In thiB "Parsifal" company.

The worst offender was Hanna Mara, the Kundry, who has not taken as lntu-h pains as her associates to make her English clear. She Is. however, a singer of notable temperament. Her voice is at its best in the fierce cries and savage staccato exclamations which Wagner requires of his wild woman. Her tones lack tenderness in the seductive passages, but even there she plays with Intelligence even if somewhat grimly.

Francis Macclennan, the Parsifal, is a young American singer with a fine voice which he uses well and he Is going to be heard from. J'arslfnl is a little heavy for him now. but his intentions are always sound and his defects arise from the lack of rower which will come with experi ence. He never annoys one by singing like a German. Franz Kgenleff, the Arafortss, Is German, but he sings like an artist, his tone is good and his EnglU-h capital.

OUley Cranston, fhe Gurnemanz, Is forcible and siroug. though a liitle over-emphatic in gesture occasionally for a part which corresponds io the narrator In en oratorio. The orchestra under Grimm was firm and strong, atrengih and certainty lu lng tbe emphatic points of the new conductor rather lhan snhtlolT. The flower girl scene In the second aet went especially well, much better than at the Metropolitan, and the chorus BlnfciiiK tn the grail scone in very beautiful. After lo-night the performances will begin "I the intermission Ttill be short.

"We feel and know that thRt chart of liberty by which our people have guided their course for more than a century and a quarter has not been lost. If.

under a government of constitutional restraints and regard for law, we have been able, through peace and war. foreign and Intestine, to grow from a population of 3,000.000 to one of 80.000.000. why may we not go on until we have doubled that number? "Why should we now consent to take even the first step which, according to its allocates, is certain to lead us to what they call Sympathy With Friends of Libeity in the Past. "It is within the recollection of great masses 0f our population, as it is within the knowledge of all, that the sympathies of our people tormcrly went out to the small countries of the Old World which were struggling for recognition or independence. We had only fairly emerged Into Independence ourselves when the cause of Greece excited the Interest of our statesmen and commanded the support of our people.

"In their turn, the warmest welcome was always given to the friends of liberty from Poland and Hungary, that accorded to Louis Kossuth being an example which has he-conic both historic and pathetic. We were not then atraid to avow sympathy with the aspirations of Ireland, nor to give the strongest approval to the continental struggles for freedom. France, as a republic, alvrnya excited the highest Interest, and every movement looking to the extension of the areas of popular government with an elected head commanded the national admiration, i But now a different story Is fold.

We hear utterances, or see acts, in which contempt is shown for small coun tries. Instead of treasuring Washington's admonition to be friendly to all nations, but to form alliances with none, the idea now uppermost in some of our diplomacy seems to be that this doctrine Is outworn and obsolete and that because we are 80,000.000 instead of 10.000.000 we should change our political habits and adopt methods and manners Ions since rejected. "But there are other directions in which we have departed widely from our early traditions, and which now menace our people industrially. We all know that, during the last quarter or a century vast changes have taken place in onr Industrial condition chonnes that, have tended to do away with competition, ana nave placed tho leading in dustrles of the country In the control of a few men. We have been warned against this tendency from time lo time by thoughtful and far-seeing men, but the warning has not neen needed.

How Cost of Living Increases, To-day however, most men are able to appreciate that It would have been wise to heed the warning earlier. Now the task of checking the evil is greater. "Th.Hp who have- enjoyed nperlf.1 rniipnns mem uinirectiy to lot the people, too-ethcr with those who have hy combinations obtained pvnetienlly the control of ccrtuln kinds of htiNincss, have a-rown no ntrouir that they feel able to control elections, thus prcventlua interference with the power they enjoy. The effect of that power as wielded lias been to Inn-ease the cost of living; to allt to add to the burden of every one. without correspondinii benefit or any benefit.

"It is conceded I hat during he last Ihree or four years the Increase in the cost of llv. ing has amounted lo one-sixth. Secretary Shaw l-cjnlces in it. And he says the wages of the worklngmea and the income of our people arc greater in proportion. Now, it thut is true, the householders of this country know It.
