Nov 97?! ing feasting bepan in New York as parly as 1 o'clock this morning with the opening of the Bowery missions br? ad line with food enough on hand ^ to satisfy the needs of .1,000 hungry k vagrants. The work of the various charitable organizations continued ! throughout the day very close to the program carried out in previous years, notwithstanding that high prices for foodstufTs made the work more expensive than ever. > At least half a dozen diners at ( each of which 1,000 to 3,000 persons were to be served were provided and in addition to this work of the regu- 1 lar philanthropise organizations, it t appears that an unusually large num- ( ber of private benefactors had arranged to help the unfortunate in ' one way or another. 1 In many ordinary households the | dread sceptre of the high cost of living dethroned the traditional turkey, ' the retail price of which had risen ' on the eve of Thanksgiving to 3 5 t cents a pound for the best grades and < 25 to 3 0 cents a pound for cold stor- ' age fowls. Although it had been predicted that the arrivals of poultry which 1 were larger than for several years, would show that the turkey was i holding its own: the total receipts i are said to hover about 25 tons less 1 in turkey arrivals than in other i years. According to retail dealers the 1 shortage is due to the fact that storage warehouses are holding the birds i already killed for the Christmas and New Year trade and the farmers are keeping their stock for another'month so that the turkeys will he fatter and command higher prices. ( The Poor in Chicago. Chicago, Nov. 27.?Regardless of , gloomy weather conditions, Chicago- , ans observed Thanksgiving for liun- , dreds of poor families. The 1.000 prisoners at the Bridewell attended the annual Thanksgiving chapel in the morning and later at a turkey dinner. Patients and inmates at the Cook county hospital, the county Jail, the juvenile home, the Chicago state hospital and other homes and hospitals enjoyed turkey dinners. COL.

London. Nov. 27.?The Thanksliving dinner of the American Society here tonight was noteworthy jecause of pronouncement of the Flritlsh government's indorsement of he Monroe doctrine by Viscount Hallane, lord high chancellor. Three lundred and fifty American men and tvomen with a large number of Brltsh guests were present and they repeatedly cheered Ix>rd Hal^nne. Robert N. Fairbanks, president of the society, proposed "The King," ind Lord TIaldane proposed "Th?j President of the United States." "I recently made a visit to the [Tnited States." Lord Haldane said, 'and came back not only with a vivid recollection of the cordial welcome I received but with a deep sense of the high ideal the British and American nations held in common?the high Ideals of citizenship of the two countries." Referring to President Wilson, he paid: A THINKING MAN. "Before he became President Mr. Wilson was a thinking man and a moralist. In studying his career T rannot fail to he impressed by his letaclied character and find that he lias not ceased to he a thinker and a moralist because he has become the holder of a great office. We see in him the aspirations and ideals of his nation expressed to the world. It is not only expressly declared that the policy of the United States is not one nf conquest or of annexation but the world looks to the United States with its enormous position and possessions. to carry on its traditions without adding to its nossessions. "That is our course also. Nor is it tho ease that when the United States intervenes in any matter it is done for its own advantage. Tt was not tho raso with Cuba, to whom the United States restored independence." MUST GUARD THEM. Speaking of the Monroe doctrine, he said that the United States considered herself responsible for the liberties of the smaller nations of the Western hemisphere. lie eonld see what was in the mind of the President of that time?that the responsibility rested with the United States to cecure good government and fair treatment for those countries. He interpreted President Wilson's policy to mean that the United States was ready to accept the responsibility of insuring good terms for herself in those countries and to those who went there and that the United States should set up high ideals of policy, of justice and of righteousness. "I am not sure that any one should speculate upon the interpretation of that policy," continued the high chancellor, "but I have thought myself at liberty to say what I have. It is true, indeed, that a high spirit and a high aim should be brought into the policy of the United States in its dealing with adlacent countries. and it is because the President has taken the attitude he lias?a step which none can but admire, whatever its consequences may be?that I propose goo.I health to Mr Woodrow Wilson, the President, and Mr. Woodrow Wilson, the man."
