Fifteen hundred "Norwegian americans will take part in coronation king oscar shows displeasure.

Publisher' Press Trondhjem, Norway, June 22. All arrangements are now complete for the formal coronation In the Trondhjem cathedral today of King Haakon the VII as the first Independent ruler of the Norwegian kingdom since the fourteenth century. The last of the visiting delegations arrlven here last night and this little city of 40,000 Inhabitants, whose streets have re-echoed with the shouts of the Viking hordes in centuries long gone by, is crowded with a cosmopolitan assemblage, who have arrived here to do honor to Norway aB it again takes Its place among the nations of the world. Thousands of tourists from all parts of Europe have flocked into the city and many last night were compelled to walk the streets because of lack of accommodations. Americans Prominent Part. Fully 1,500 Norwegian Americans trom New York, Chicago, Milwaukee and various parts of the great northwest, where the descendants of the Norsemen are numbered, are the most (prominent citizens of the United "States, are here and will bear a prominent part in the day's festivities. The American Minister at Stockholm, Mr. Graves, is the special envoy, representing President Roosevelt, but Mr. Pierce, the, new American minister to Norway, is also on hand. In addition every European country save 'Sweden Is represented by a special envoy or delegation. That Sweden is not represented Is due to the personal desire tof King Oscar not to give his sanction to the coronation of a. Norwegian king and this fact has caused hard feelings between the two countries. City Well Decorated. The city Is decorated with flags, bunting and artificial flowers, and following the coronation the new King ". will be saluted by Norwegian, British, German, French and Danish warships, there being eleven men of war in the Trondhjem fiord. Today's ceremony is to be most impressive because of the utter absence of pomp or display. The King and Queen will leave the Stiftsgaard, the royal residence and the .largest wooden dwelling in Norway, and drive in a itate carriage, accompanied by a small guard of honor, about half a mile along the Munke Gaden to the cathedral. There they will be received by representatives of tho municipality, chief officers of the general government and court officials. Twentyseven hundred invited guests wll occupy the auditorium and included in their numbers will be the special envoys, the permanent diplomatic corps at Christiana, government officials, fcnembers of the Norwegian storthing and a delegation of Danish University tnen. 1 The coronation service will last about an hour and will be in charge of Bishop Bang, of Christiana, Bishop Wexelsen, of Trondhjem, and Mr. Mlchelsen, the Norwegian premier.

SENATE III FAVOR OF A LOCK CANAL Roosevelt Is Pleased with flc- . tion and Will. Order the .Digging to Begin, WATSON'S BILL IN SENATE SEVERAL SENATORS SHOW DISPLEASURE OVER MATTER OF VOTING PRESIDENT TRAVELING EXPENSES. Publishers' Press Washington, June 21. The Senate this afternoon decided by a vote of 36 to 331, in favor of a lock canal across the Isthmus of Panama. As the lock type has already been adopted by the House and is strongly approved by the President, the action of the Senate settles the question.. To a senator who at once conveyed the news to the White House the President expressed the greatest gratification over the ceclsion of the Senate. He said that as soon as he has been officially notified he will direct Chairman Shonts, of the canal commission "to cut loose and dig dirt." A Startling Climax. The day was not without another startling climax. It came when discussion was resumed on the provision in the sundry civil bill, appropriating $25,00 annually for the President's traveling expenses. Mr. McLaurin (Miss.) sharply criticized the President and Mr. Bailey (Tex.) declared he had cost more and had been worth less than any of his predecessors, but it remained for Mr. McCumber (No. Dak.) a Republican, to characterize the provision as a further attempt to copy foreign customs by surrounding the President with the gaudy1 trappings of royalty and to build up an army of underlings. The North Dakotan will continue his remarks along this line tomorrow. HIS VISIT TO INDIANA President Roosevelt Will Probably Visit State University and State Normal. Washington, Ind., June 22. (Spl. Col. A. T. Fleet, of Culver Military Academy, saw the President today in company with Representative Brick, and invited him to visit Culver when he goes into the central West next spring. The President said it would probably be impossible for him to accept the invitation. His program, he said, contemplated visits to state educational Institutions only. He remarked that he intended to visit the State Normal school, at Terre Haute, and hoped to be able to go to the Indiana University, at Bloomington. Col. Fleet also saw the Secretary of the Navy today and arranged for the loan of some additional cutters for the academy. Salaries of Postmasiers.

LAD WHO RAN AWAY IS NOW SAFELY HOME HOWEVER AND SAYS HE LEFT TO SEE SOME OTHER CITIES.

Harmon Thesing, the twelve year old lad who ran away from the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thesing, 216 North Sixteenth street, was returned to his home last evening after a search in which the police assisted, lasting from Tuesday evening up to yesterday afternoon, when he was located in Indianapolis The chief of police in that city Informed Chief Bailey that the bov had been found there and was being held until some one came to take him into custody. Harmon denied last evening that he ran away from home because he did not wish to "speak a piece" at the commencement exercises at St. Andrew's school next Thursday, but that he wandered off because he wanted to see other cities and towns. How Mistake Came About. It was stated in the , Palladium yesterday morning that young Thesing had been caught at Dublin, and that his father had gone there Wednesday evening for the purpose of bringing the boy back. This statement was made on the authority of one of the members of the lad's family and was thought to be authentic. Even the boy's father when he left here Wednesday, evening for Dublin thought he was to find his son at the Miller boarding house there, and had intended to return with him to this city early Thursday morning. Mrs. Thesing was so happy over finding her son at Dublin (a3 she thought) that she telephoned the information to the Palladium : Did Not Like Dublin. It developed yesterday that Harmon after arriving in Dublin Tuesday afternoon and spending the night there had left oh a west bound Interurban car about f : 30 Wednesday afternoon but returned to Dublin an hour later. For some unknown reason he again left that place on a west bound car about 4:30 o'clock and went direct to Indianapolis where the police had been" notified to look for him. Harmon rode his wheel from Richmond to Dublin but finding this method of transportation too wearisome he abandoned it and started out to conquer the world and seek new fields of adventure with the princely sum of $6 in his pocket.

GOVERNOR FOLK PROSECUTORS While In Indianapolis He Comments on Duties of Prosecuting Attorneys. A BINDING OBLIGATION SAYS THEY MAY BECOME - EMBEZZLERS OF POWER CONFERRED ON THEM BY FAILING TO PERFORM DUTIES. Indianapolis, Ind., June 21. (SpL) Governor Joseph W. Folk, of Missouri, has some ideas concerning the duty of prosecutors to ferret out crimes. In speaking of this matter in connection with a controversy that has engaged himself and William Travers Jerome of New York City, Governor Folk, who was in Indianapolis yesterday evening, as the guest of Governor Hanly, said: "I do not know the local conditions in Indiana, and even if I did, it would not be proper for me to comment upon them. Broadly speaking, however, it is the duty of the prosecutor to prosecute for law violations-where he has the evidence. If he has not the evidence, and it can be obtained, it is the duty of the prosecutor to hunt for the evidence. In common crimes, such as robbery, the person robbed generally makes it his business to bring the facts to the prosecutor and start the machinery of justice. In what are known as crimes against the public, however, such as peculations by public officials or bribery, there is usually no one to make the facts known. In the case of bribery every one is concerned with the concealing the facts. Unless the prosecutor investigates 'aggressively every report of corruption, official venality can rarely be uncovered, and the practical effect is to give immunity to this class of crime. "Public officials do not have to embezzle money in order to be dishonest. There is an embezzlement of power as well as an embezzlement of money.' The people confer upon prosecutors certain powers, which he should exercise for the public good. If he fails or declines to enforce the law without just cause, he is the embezzler of the power conferred upon him by the people."

' $30,000 MORE EACH YEAR Indiana National Guard Will Profit by Appropriation of Congress for Various States. Indianapolis, Ind., June 21.. (Spl.) The Indiana National Guard will profit to the extent of about $30,000 a year through the passage by Congress of the bill appropriating $2,000,000 a year toward the maintenance of the militia organizations of the various states. Heretofore the appropriation has been $1,000,000. Under the old arrangement the National Guard of Indiana received .between $29,000 and $30,000. This was used in paying the expenses of the annual State encampments of the troops and for such other purposes as the laws directed. But this amount, when added to the $75,000 a year "that is appropriated by the State of Indiana itself, has not been sufficient to enable the officers to accomplish what they believed the Indiana National Guard should do.

TO BE TAKEN INTO COURT., ATTORNEYS FOR OTHER FACTO RY OWNERS AFFECTED CONTEND THAT BOARD HAS NO RIGHT TO CLOSE STREET.

North Fourteenth street from H street to the right of way of the P. C.' C. & St. L. RaHroad, 'is now closed, legally closed, according to City Attorney Gardner, illegally closed according to Attorneys H. U. Johnson, T. J. Study and Jessup & Jessup, who represent the remonstrators. Yesi terday morning the board of public works confirmed resolution closing the street, and in a week or two the board will assess benefits and damages to the property owners affected by tho closing. Attorney T. J. Study, for William' Gartslde, announced yesterday after-' noon, after the action of the board of works, that the court would be asked for a restraining order to prevent tha street from being closed. It is understood that Jessup and Jessup, attorneys for James Jones of the Advance Machine Repair shop, and Henry U. Johnson, attorney for John Evans, of the Quaker City Machine Company, would also ask restraining orders of the court. Mr. Study refused to stajte whether a temporary injunction would be asked for at once, or when the board, in accordance with the law, assessed the benefits and damages. Mr. Rosa Was not Present. The resolution for closing the street, on the petition of the American Seed-J lng Machine Company, which was or-1 dered by the board several weeks ago, was confirmed with the exception of an amendment on the part of Mr. Davenport to reserve the right of the city to control the sewers laid in Fourteenth street. ' When the resolution was confirmed by the board, the Democratic member, Will Rosa, was absent. Mr. Davenport moved that the resolution, with the amendment referred to, be confirmed. President Zeller announced that there were no exceptions to the motion and it was carried. ' The attorneys for the remonstrators still insist that the board of public works has no right to close a public highway, unless some public benefit is thereby derived, and in the case of the closing of North Fourteenth street, they charge that the public will derive no benefit. There is no doubt but that the matter will be fought out In the courts and the American Seeding! Machine company will be prevented from enlarging, their plant at least for some time. The case, if brought into the court, will be a most interesting one, as delicate points of law will be involved. LEEDS MUST PAY HEAVY

GOVERNMENT DETERMINED ,

Secretary Reynolds In Charge of tha.' Customs Bureau Says Foremr Richmond Man Must Pay 60 Percent Duty on $400,000 Pearls. Washington, June 21. (Spl.) Assistant Secretary Reynolds, of the Treasury Department, in charge of the customs bureau, said today that the Government would sue for the additional duties on the pearls imported for William B. Leeds, formerly of Richmond, Ind., about which there is a controversy. Mr. Reynolds declined to express an opinion about the case, which he said was In the hands of the New York authorities. He said, however, that it was similar to others which have been brought bebfore the department, based on the contention of the Treasury officials that the Government is entitled to a duty of 60 per cent on pearls strung in a necklace or set as against 10 per cent, for pearls brought in unset or unmatched or not in the form of a necklace. The Treasury Department will endeavor to prove that the Leeds pearls are the components of a necklace and virtually constitute a necklace, though entered , merely on a string used by Jewelers for bringing in loose gems. The jewels were valued at $400,000. Rev. Smith New Pastor... The Rev. H. R. Smith, formerly of California, but who has been attending the Louisville Seminary of Theology for several years past, has been elected to fill the pastorate of the First Baptist chm-cn In this city.
