NOT "D -IITED." Roosevelt "Mad" at Some Charges Against Him-Ananias Club May Enlarge. Washington cor. The State. Washington, Nov. S.--There prom ises some considerable number of new mendbers of the Ananias club unless the present temper of the chief elec tor changes materially. Those whol have visited the White House thel past few days have seen some foam ing at the mouth and some energetic gesticulation, and words have been proceeding from the executive mouth< which were not uttered for publica I tion. The substance of them, though, and their import may be printed without violation of confidence. The matter is that the president is getting mighty tired of this thing of having prominent financiers and rep resentative newspapers say that he is responsible for the panic in New York and the general lack of confi dence in the big financiers and cap tains of industry which has caused this financial unrest and the stor ing up of money in stockings and chimney corners instead of letting it circulate through the business chan nels. Today and yesterday in parti cular the president has been making remarks anent the remarks that are being made about him. He not only ,denies that he is the cause of the fin ancial disturbance, but he very em hatically and profusely denies that he has made the remarks openly a1d widely attributed to him. For in stance, a speech recently made by Edward M. Sheppard fully entitles that distinguished gentleman, in the opinion of the chief elector, to full membership in the famous club, and while Mr. Sheppard has not been for ally elected, it is well known here now that his name is in the hat, with a fairly good prospect of being drawn out. Mr. Sheppard, said: What E. M. Sheppard Said. "For months President Roosevelt has been going up and down the country planting the doctrne of dis content. He has excited jealousy on the part of the masses against the classes, and has weakened confidence in our business structure. He has sowed the wind and we will reap the whirlwind.'' The president says he ain't done no' sich thing. And what's more, he 'don't care who knows that he ain't, SMr. Sheppard further said in that speech last week: "But when a man charged with enormous responsibilities, whose dut.y it is not to speak until he knows, not to make charges util he can make good, when such a man goes over the country, with every ear open to his! words, and charges men of wealth and standing with crimes, saying that al most every captain of industry should e behind the bars, his woi-ds have a~ uch greater effect than if he were a rivate citizen. "And. when he from the White ouse says that he will send from 10 o 50 capitalists to jail, it attacks the very center of our confidence in our institutions.' In full justice to Mr. Roosevelt, he never made any such charge as that' nearly every captain of industry should be behind the bars, and he never threatened from 10 to 50 capi talists with jail. Very few men here abuts doubt that if he were really to try very hard to make convictions he might be able to put some dozen so, at least, of the high- financiers jail, and have them sent from there the penitentiary or the chaingang. Nor is there any reasonable doubt in many people's minds that if he really wanted to "bust'' some trusts he could find plenty of them which have been flagr.antly violati'ng the law. The most he has done has been to talk about what ought to be done, and he has not really gone so far in doing that as he is represented to have gone. o wonder he is mad. "ixing Things" Up. Just a few days ago Mr. Friek, one the great muck-amucks of the steel st, was down here to confer with the president. As a consequence of that visit it was announced that there would be no proceedings against the steel trust, which next to the Stand ard Oil company is about the most powerful corporation in thie coun try, anid it is scarcely a dcubt to any one familiar with its operations at all that it has been as guilty of violating he Sherman law as the Standard has een. But the steel trust is the very gh priest of the god protection. The tandard Oil g'ets no benefit from the tariff and has been built up without e tariff, whereas the steel trust ould never have grown so powerful ut for the exorbitant tariff. More over, the time is coming when cam paign funds will be needed to elect a president of the United States and he steel trust has been too good a ,.;nd in the past to cut off that m"urce et supply. espeerally since :iere is no longler any chanee to get inything from the Standard. No, .he steel trust will not be prosecuted, ind the quasi investigation said to iave been begun by the bureau of orporations will get no further than :he inner sanctuary of the bureau, if lideed it. gets that far. Certai:ly the )resident has no intention of allow ng any of his agents to disclose to :he public what the steel trust has )een doing, and Mr. Frick went hom w-idently reassured. Yet, in spite of ;ueh things as this, the financiers in Wal street and the gTeat newspapers )f the metropolis which Wall street IasS subsidized continue to howl that he'$resident is fighting corporations. President Mellen, Also. Preside-it Mellen of the New York. Tew Haven & Hartford railroad was, lown here yesterday to confer with :he president. He and his associates ant to merge the New York, New Iaven & Hartford with the Boston & Waine, but fearing that the president night want to have something to say ibont this. he got on the train and iame down here -to see him about it. nd President Mellen went away ith the evident assurance that he night go ahead and do pretty much is he liked about this merger. Just lt this time it is pretty safe to do retty much anytbing in violation of :he anti-trust laws. There has oeen too much panic and Hurry and the general campaign in "rew York of laving it all at the door f President Roosevelt is telling. That seems exactly what the campaign neans. Wall street has never want d Roosevelt. They have been forced to support him just exactly as Louis KVI was forced to support such men as Mirabeau to save- himself from the more radical reformers. Wall street hates Roosevelt, but they hope to get rid of him altogether, and so they are eharging him with every little flurry there is which people . dislike. And they are succeeding, for T. R. is; cared. And what's more, he's mad. Zach McGhee. BAN ON COCA COLA REMOVED. The Beverage May Again be Sold at the Canteens. Atlanta. October 31.-Coca cola is again on sale at the army canteens of the Atlantic division of the United States army. A general order issued rom the depart'ment of the Gulf yes terday removes t'he prohibiition ban aon this beverage, which was put on June 1S, 1907.

Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief of the chemistry bureau at the Unitted Sta tes department of agzriculture, has just completed a minute analysis'and test of coca cola, and it was upon his report that the repealing order was issued.
