Morse did all the buying and selling, each of the pocl members instructing Albert Loeb Co. fo accept orders from Mr. Morse for his account wp to the agreed limit. from Morse 10 Carrol! referring to the success #3] operation of the first pool. With two of these letters Morse inclosed checks to Carroll ggeregating over $39,000 and representing Car oil's profits in the first pool. The other mem pers received similar checks. This ended the aperations of the first pool, and al! the members, Each witness told in detail of the tters were introduced sacording to letters and testimony, were highly pleased with the way Morse had handled things. The s nd pool was started early in the sum mer of 1006, and each member, with ..e excep sion of Mr. Gates, agreed to take up. to 20,000 shares of stock. It was wound up disastrously a November 1, 1906, when the members were @bed on to take up the pool stock at an aver

2g price of 6708 a share. What this stock cost the second pool was not divulged, but it is matter 6f history that the price of American Ice stock declined steadily from the time the pool was dissolved until the stock sold at Big in the panic last fall. Its present price is 26. Mr. -Carroil, former boss _ of Tammany Halil ind vice-president of the Fourteenth Street Bank me of the Morse chain, was the first of the “i pool” witnesses called. Carroll, it seemed. after he had “cleaned up” $40.60) in the firs. pool and had taken on 20,(0¥%) shares in the second pocl, needed ready money along in the autumn of 1906, and asked Morse to relieve him of some of his pool stock. This Mr. Morse agreed 10 do, and Carroll sold to Morse 10,000 shares at 40, though the market price of the glock was over oi at the time. Carroll said that Bis brokers, Albert Loeb Co., had advised him 10 “lighten up” a bit. Mr. Guggenheim carried the operation of the second pool a little further along than Carroll hed done. After the members had been called on, on November 1. 1906, to take up the pool stock and the pool had been formally dissolved, Mr. Guggenheim said there was a meeting one night in Mr Gates’s apartments at the Waldori Astoria to discuss what was hest to be done. Wesiey M. Oler, the president of the American lee Securities Company, and Mr. Johnson, the tGmpany’s treasurer, were present. IN THE ICE BUSINESS TO STAY. “What conclusion did you arrive at?” asked Henry IL. Stimson, the United States attorney Who is prosecuting the case. A ripple of laugh ter passed around the ceurtroom when Mr. Guggenheim replied: “We concluded that we were all in the ice business to stay.” At this point Judge Hough asked the witness me questions concerning the pool and its workings. The court referred to the members of the pool as “this association of adventurers,” 2 characterization which created no little mirth in the courtroom. Mr. Stimson asked Mr. Schwab about the profits in the second “Ice pool.” “There were profits” was Mr. Schwab's answer. On his ¥ay out of the courtroom Mr. Schwab stopped &nd conversed for several minutes with Mrs Curtis, wife of Alfred H. Curtis, who was in court. as usual. As Mr. Guggenheim left the Curtroom with Mr. Carroll he put on his hat and wae sharply reprimanded by one of the Geputy marshals. Me.

Duluth, Minn.,, Oct. 19.—Congressman J. R. Mann, of Chicago, who is making an inspec tion of the Michigan, Wisconsin and Minne sota pulpwood industries, in an interview to night said:

“While I am not fully prepared to say so, still it is my belief that the committee in its report will reccommend to Congress a revision of the tariff both on Canadian pulpwood and Canadian print paper. From the ground that we have already gone over it looks to me as though the pulpwood supply of the Northwest at the present rate of consumption will not last many Years. “Canada seems to be our only salvation, and if we cannot arrange matters so that pulp timber can be brought cheaply to this country the price of print paper is going to go sky high.” VACCINATION CHALLENGE Anti Vaccinationist Offers to Share Bed with Smallpox Patient Philadelphia, Oct. 19.—An unusual challenge to test the effectiveness of vaccination was is sued to-day at the opening meeting of the Na tional Anti-Vaccination Conference, which will remain in session three days with representa tives present from state and national organiza tions opposed to compulsory vaccination and other compulsory medical ‘practices.

Dr. Rudolph Straube, of Philadephia, in an address challeged Dr. Samuel Dixon, head of the Pennsylvania Health Department, to spend a night in bed with him with a smallpox patient between them in order to prove his assertion that vaccination is of no benefit in preventing the spread of that disease. Dr. Dixon, Dr. Straube says, has been vaccinated several times, while he has never been inoculateds In the event of Dr. Dixon's refusal to accept the offer, Dr. Straube said, the challenge would be open to Dr. Joseph Neff, of the Health Department of

MR. TAFT SPEAKS IN THREE STATES

CONFIDENT OF ALL THEIR ELECTORAL VOTES.

Successful Trip Through New Jer sey, Delaware and Maryland, Ending at Baltimore. MR. TAFT SPEAKS IN THREE STATES CONFIDENT OF ALL THEIR ELECTORAL VOTES. Successful Trip Through New Jer sey, Delaware and Maryland, Ending at Baltimore. Baltimore, Oct. 19.—Mr. Taft made a rapid trip across New Jersey to-day, spoke to the citizens of Delaware at Wilmington and closed the day with a most gratifying meeting at Baltimore. He entered New Jersey with genu ine regret that the programme arranged for him by the national committee would permit of his spending only one day in the state. He left it with confidence, due to the cordiality and en thusiasm of his audiences, and the assurances of the party leaders, that “New Jersey is all right.” Mr. Taft was assured yesterday at the White House that Maryland was safely Repub lican. After the great meeting at Baltimore this evening, he is doubly convinced that he will receive the electoral vote of this state.

In the quiet hours of the night, the Taft spe cial train was whisked from Washington to Newark, where it arrived at 7:30 o’clock this morning, and Mr. Taft immediately went to the home of ex-Governor Franklin Murphy, where he was entertained at breakfast and had a brief conference with Chairman Hitchcock. Before this conference erded Governor Fort and Sena tor Colby arrived and chatted with the candi date for a few moments, after which Mr. Colby was obliged to depart, as he was to entertain the audience already rapidly gathering at Blaney's Theatre. A delegation of negroes ar rived next, quickly followed by prominent citi zens of New Jersey and New York, including Chief Justice William Gummere, Representa tive Parker and ex-Representative Wiley.

BiG MEETING IN NEWARK. On leaving Mr. Murphy's house for the theatre Mr. Taft received a hearty cheer, and another when he arrived at the place of meeting. An audience of three thousand persons had already gathered, while half as many more were unable tc obtain admission. Mr. Taft was in excellent spirits and made a happy speech on the issues of the campaign. His discussion of the Demo cratic platform included a reference to the con stitution of Oklahoma as “a perfect zoological garden of Bryan ideas,” and he quoted Mr. Bryan's assertion that that instrument was “the greatest work which had ever been struck from the brain of man”

Mr. Taft then proceeded to show that, whil: this constitution weakens the power of the courts by abolishing punishment for indirect contempt. except after conviction by a jury, as is proposed for the entire country by the Demo cratic national platform, it provides at the same time that if an official of a corporation shall refuse to testify before the state corpora tion commission, such commission shall have the power to punish for contempt with a fine and the necessarily following imprisonment, without jury trial, and despite the fact that it is an executive body and not a part of the judi cial system.

Mr. Taft also dealt with unusual force and clarity with the bank guarantee proposition. He narrated the case cited by an Oklahoma banker of a man in that state who had twice failed in business, had accumulated a capital of $10,000, emploved as cashier a man who had been in dicted for embezzlement, and had not only started a bank, but obtained deposits of ever $100,000. He had obtained these deposits, Mr. Taft explained, by the use of social and political “pull” and by pointing out that every strong bank in the state is obliged to guarantee his deposits. The audience gave every evidence of appreciation of his remarks and he was cheered when he finished speaking.

i At Elizabeth Mr. Taft was greeted by an au dience which packed the theatre, and his brief speech was well received. He was introduced by Governor Fort. Mr. Taft had expected the Governor to remain with him as long as he staved in New Jersey, but Mr. Fort was called avay by another speaking engagement. Sena tors Kean and Briggs and ex-Governor Murphy remained with the party until Trentcn was reached.

i Five-minute stops were made at Rahway and New Brunswick, at both of which tremendous crowds had gathered to hear the candidate.

At Trenton Mr. Taft spoke in the Opera House to an audience which was especially enthusias tic. A pretty feature of the meeting was the playing of “The Star Spangled Banner” by the orchestra, while every member of the audience waved tiny flags, with which all had been pro- vided.

Mr. Taft discussed the issues of the campaign generally, expressed the opinion that the duty on certain sorts of pottery would have to be raised, and peinted out how detrimental it would be to business prosperity to intrust the direction of the government to a man whose economic prophecies had proved false and who now advocated remedies for trust evils whith were utterly impracticable, and a bank guaran nie Continued on second page. “GOVERNMENT BY COMMISSION.” ee ey eee WHAT HUGHES DID AND CHANLER WOULD UNDO XI.

Albany, Oct. 19.—Forest fires are raging fiercely in this state and threaten to assume larger proportions than at any time this year, according to reports received from the Adiron dacks to-day by the State Forest, Fish and Game Commission. Rain is badly needed, but the most dangerous element is the high wind which is prevailing. Requests for experienced fire wardens and additional help to combat the flames were received from various points in the mountains.

Two fires were reported as having started

The International Paper Com pany reported that it had suspended operations and sent its men into the woods to fight the fire at Cedar River. They asked for help from the state. The fire warden at Blue Mountain Lake was authorized to obtain all the help necessary. The fires in the vicinity of Lake Placid are especially threatening. A message was received from Lake Placid saying that the fire on Saddle back Mountain threatens the entire side of the lake. Chief Fire Warden Emmons went to the region to assume personal charge. Another telegram received to-night from In dian Lake informed the commission that fires were raging in townships 15, 17, 18, 19 and 34, all covered by timber. The fire wardens were directed to get all the men available to fight the flames. An appeal for help was recelved from Danne mora. Superintendent of Prisons Collins was authorized to wire Warden Cole™at Danne mora to go to Plattsburg and employ a band of men to assist experienced fire fighters in fighting this fire, which is about two miles from Clinton Prison.

Maclk’s Committee Buys at Whole sale and “Fakes” Trade Club Names. The sudden eruption of Bryan and Kern club banners all along Broadway, and to some extent in 23d. street and other side streets, has aroused considerable comment, particularly among busi ness men. These banners are of uniform size, are all strung to poles of a given height and appearance and the manner of their lettering is the same in each case. They purport to repre sent trade clubs which favor the election of the Democratic candidates,

The Tribune learned vesterday that not one of the trade clubs featured above these flags exists, that fifty of these banners were ordered at one time by the Democratic National Com mittee Prom a certain firm, each banner, includ ing its erection, costing $30, and that the club names emblazoned on them were created at headquarters.

Unless the residents of Patchogue submit ‘to vaccination they will be placed in quarantine by the state. It was said at the Health Department that conditions at Patchogue threatened to become worse unless vaccination was made general. Dr. Blauvelt, the assistant sanitary superin tendent of the Health Department of this city, was at Patchogue yesterday making a thorough investigation. He found there were thirty cases and that the local authorities were powerless to enforce vaccination or quarantine. There have been no deaths so far, but it is believed that the more serious type of the disease will <gon be upon the village unless the state stepsin. COURTHOUSE TIED UP.

Mr. Lawrence told him he was compelled to suspend his employes, as there was no money to pay them. Sheriff Hohley told Justice Maddox he had no money to hire help to replace the twenty-seven men and women dismissed by order of Mr. Coler. He suggested calling upon the Police Department for a detail of v0 men to look after the building Sheriff Hobley calsdqd up Mr. Baker and made the request, bul the latter replied that it was not his duty to guard the interior of public buildings. Mr. Hobley then detailed two men from his small staff to courthouse duty. The justices will discuss the situation to-day. “LOVE PIRATES IN OFFICES."

He discussed in de tail the work of his administration, speaking of the important reforms achleved in the Banking, Agricul aral and Labor departments, and the meaning of the Public Service commissions te the people of the state.

Brackett and Assembly man George Whitney met the Governor there and went with him to Ballston. Mr. Brackett said that while there was a tremendous amount cf sentiment against the Governor in Saratoga Springs, the rest of the county would prevent this from doing any especial damage. “Our county chairman tells me,” sald he, “that we shall glve the Governor about 2.200 plurality in the county. That is approximately what he got two years ago. He will not run as well as Taft here, but the Presidential candidats in this state always leads the Governor.” Fort Edward, in Washirgton County, was the next stop. There the Governor addressed a good sized crowd. telling them of, his work in the last two years. He said in part: ww Su TTT El A aa EH TH.

But we have silence—harmonious and symmetrical silence. This silence can be overdone, and I think it is being overdone a little in this case, because tha American people understand the value of public discussion and are going to get to the point and ascertain exactly what the issue may be. Ex-Railroad Commissioner Isaac Baker joined Governor Hughes at this peint and continued with him to Comstock, Mr. Baker's home. From Fort Edward th¢ Governor weni up the Lake George road to Glens Fa'ls, where there was a big meeting at the theatre, preceded by 5 parade around town and a reception at the Hotel Rock well. It was a sort of gala day for Glens Falls, Those who were unable te attend the noonday meeting hung out of the windows of stores, of fices and shops to watch the Governor go past and cheered him until he was out of sight. Men who had known him when he was a hev thronged around him to tell him of their ad miration for him and assure him of their cordial support. Somewhat in contrast with them was Sa. tor James A. Emerson, who voted against the Gowaimor's anti-gambling bills and who is one of the three ‘Republican Senators out of eight who did so to be renominated. He attended the meeting, but did not greet the Governor.

TALKS OF TWO-CENT FARE BILL. Governor Hughes at this place made his first long speech of the day.

Schieren, president oi uk Hughes Alliance, szid last night in reply to an attack on Governor Hughes by the legislative committee of the German-American State Alliance that his knowledge of the German-American peo ple, of whom Mr. Schieren is one, teaches him that “ther cannot be deceived by such insidious misrepresentation.” “The facts are within my knowledge,” said Mr. Schieren. “and I want to say to German-Americans and all other citizens that, if I am entitled to credence, it Is not true that Governor Hughes is an enemy of any personal liberty, or that he has ever approved of legislation attacking any per sonal liberty, or that he has given the slightest reason to fear that he will approve such legisia tion. 1 am glso in a position to state that the personal liberty league movement was launched by lawless interests, with which GermanAmeri cans, as a body, have no sympathy. “One of the Governor's public acts, cited by the committee as the reason for its opposition to Governor Hughes, is his approval of what it de scribes as ‘a more rigorous excise law, full of re striction and injustice.” There is not a single provision making the law more rigorous, as ap plied to law-abiding dealers, or that in any way restricts personal liberty. Before its passage It received the approval of the accredited attorneys who represented the liquor dealers in Albany.”

ATTACKS THE GOVERNOR. Talks About “Holier than “Thou” Soirit— Asks Questions. a busy week Lieutenant Governor Chanler “ad dressed a large audience hers to-night. He devoted bis time mainly to an attack upon Governor Hughes. He sald: “My opponent, when he was on his way home Y., Oct. 18.—In the of

‘from the West after several weeks of arduous’ work, practically called all the people of the state who might vote against him ‘crooks.’ .I thought then that this was but the statement of man who was bending under a heavy strain and whose tem per had broken down, and I was charitably dis posed not to make too much of such a blunder, and to have it charged to temper, not to temperament.

“Since then, however, he has given further evi dence that this condition has become chronic with him, and on Saturday last he wound up his speech by calling me a ‘dodger’ because I would net an ewer a question of his, through which he was trying to Introduce into the campalgn an issue which has been finally disposed of, and is not referred to in either of the party platforms. “I do not believe that this question was asked in good faith. He knows of his own knowledge that I am in favor of the enforcement of all laws, in-, cluding the laws against gambling. He seems to believe, and would apparently like to have the people believe, that the only question in thig cam paign is the question of gambling to which no ref erence has been made by either party platform and that he had a monopoly of that question, and is the only man who could be trusted by the peopls to prevent gambling. “Has it never occurred to him that the people must be in a very bad way if that Is the real situ ation of affairs? If Mr. Hughes were to die under such conditions, what would become of the peopie: and of the state? Would the people be like sheep without a shepherd and would the state necessarily pass out of existence? I think even a man carried away as he seems to be with the idea that every thing dear to mankind hangs upon his election will realize after November 3 that the country will run along much the same as ever, no matter what may happen to him.

“As was well sald by a prominent independent newspaper last week, ‘There have been great gov ernors before Mr. Hughes and there wlil be great governors after him." He has no monopoly of the virtue or the pubiic spirit of this great state, and he has failed utterly to realize that this is a Re public where all men are equal, and not a kingdom where the people desire or will tolerate a master who shall direct thelr private affairs, choose their amusements and limit their personal liberty.

“His whole attitude through this contest has been, perhaps unconsciously, that of a man who is superior not alone to his opponents, but to his associates and aupporters. Why has he failed yet to indorse the platform upon which he was nomi nated at Saratoga or to say one word in favor of his party associates upon his ticket? Is it that he repudiates the platform and the party, or that he does not consider the platform to be bhind ing in any way upon him? Are not his associates fit to be on ihe ticket with him, or {s thelr election a matter of so little importance as compared with his that he has no time to waste in referring to them? Can it be that he has been so completely carried away with his own importance that he has forgotten that there was a platform or that the Republican state ticket has other names upon it?

“I do not regard myself at liberty, as does my opponent, to invent personal issues of my own for the exploitation of any peculiar views which I may hold on various subjects. I trust I have none of the ‘holier than thou’ spirit which pervades the professions of some of our adversaries. I respect the sincere convictions of an honest man, although I may differ from his conclusions, but I detest cant and hypocrisy wherever they are found, whether in high or low places, and I claim only to be the equal in integrity and fair mindedness of the aver age citizen.

“If my public career as a member of the Board of Supervisors of Dutchess County and as Lieu tenant Governor has not already proved to my fel low citizens that 1 will deal fearlessly, conscien tiously and uprightly with every question of public morals which may come before me as Governor, as well as every other question, then nothing which I could now say as a candidate would so prove. I stand upon my record. “I shall hope, as Governor, to recommend laws which, whether they may be widely advertised as reform measures or not, will result in the many and important reforms which may be needed in the conduct of the state government: laws which will not be unconstitutional upon their face and so de clared almost upon enactment, but will be in con sonance with the letter and spirit of the consti tution and make for the welfare of our great cos mopolitan state, and not merely flatter the preju dices and cater to the desires of a few particular classes, “I repeat here what I said at Barrytown in my speech of acceptance: ‘When we turn to the Re publican platform we find that it evades the Gov ernor’s policies; when we turn to the Republican candidate we find that he evades the Republican platform.”

“The interrogatory method of conducting a polit ical discussion having been inaugurated by the ‘Grand Inquisitor,’ some questions occur to me which it may be well for him 10 answer for the edification of all the voters of the state.

1. Are you In favor of a constitutional amendment providing for the election of United States Senators by the people? 2. Are you in favor of the re-election of United States Senators Platt and Depew? 3. Why Gid vou refuse to appoint a railroad man upon the Public Ffervice commissions? Was it because there was no practical railroad man in the state having the ability, in your opinion, to fill such a position? 4. Are you in favor of the personal {dentification registry law throughout the state, or are you in favor of it only in the Democratite City af New York? 5. Why 414 you conspicuously omit {n your speech of A 20, 1908. rm—— NEW.YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, TUESDAY. OCTOBER acceptance an expression of your approval of the Repub lican state platform? 8. Why dld you not call Mr. Cortelyou, chairman of the Republican Natiomal Committee, and Mr. Bliss, treas urer ot the Republican National Committee, as witnesses in the insurance investigation, and ascertain from them what money thev received from the {insurance companies, and what use they made thereof? 7. Was not your nomination in 1808 and’ your re nomination in 1808, at the instance and dictation of Pres— {dent Roosevelt, a reward for your action in omitting to compel a full disclosure when ft appeared that Mr. Cortel you, chairman of the Republican National Committee, had received large sums of the money of policy holders of life insurance companies? 8. Why did you oppose some limitation upon the amount of salary which might be pald to presidents of life insurance companies, and why was there no limita tion in the insurance law which vou prepared? 9. Is it not a fact that the effect of the insurance law prepared by you is to limit the compensation and salary of clerks, agents and minor employes generally {n life insurance companies, while placing no limitation upon the extravagant sums paid to the higher officials of these companies? 10. During your term as Gevernor how many laws which the courts have declared unconstitutional have vou signed? “After you have answered these questions it will still remain for the people of the state to deter mine whether personal bias and official narrow mindedness shall dominate the activities of this cosmopolitan state, or whether a broad and liberal policy, giving corslderation. to all the diversified interests and elements in this, the Empire State of the Union, shall prevail.” CHANLER LAUDS HEARST. Said Fearful Organization Demo crats Defeated Editor. Lieutenant Governor Chanler, at a dinner he gave for William Randolph Hearst at.Delmonico's on November 12, 1906, spoke in praise of Mr. Hearst, “The New.York American” the next day quoted him as follows: As to the cause of his [Hearst's] defeat there can be little discussion. He was beaten by the votes of Democrats under the organization of those who feared for their own political existence should he be elected, and of those who feared for their own financial existence should he be in a position to expose their actions in the past.

For my part, 1 think the time has come when the Demvcratic party should realize that if it is to be the party of the future it should recognize as Democrats only those who are Democrats all the year round, and who owe their allegiance to the principles of Democracy, and not to those who, by the power which they temporarily express, can be of advantage te those so-called Democrats when they happen to be in power.

i We are men, most of us, with comparatively littie experience in state affairs, and yet upon our shoulders rests a great responsibility, because thig state and the people will look to the admin istration. so far as the administration can be car ried out by principles of the Democratic party, for Democratic guidance. There is only one thing we can do, and that is, realizing that we are for the time leaders, realizing that we are without an official guiding-hand or brain to show us the diffi culties and to lead us out of our difficulties, to stand together, to be united, and when times of doubt and difficulty come, as they must come in the course of the next two years, when we do not. know what to do or where to go for guidance turn back to the principles as enunciated by him during this campaign, and to see how far we can travel together” along the road which he showed us during that eampaign. When we do not. know what to do, let us say to one another, “What ats wouid he have had us do were he lere? SHEARN STABS CHANLER. Makes Bitter Attack at Binghamton —Graces Also Seals. Binghamton, N. Y., Oct. 19.—John Temple Graves, candidate for Vice-President on the Independence party ticket, and <Clarence J. Shearn, candidate for Governcr, spoke to large meetings at Bingham ion and Lestershire, N. Y., to-night. Mr. Shearn mercilessly assailed Chanler. He said in part:

Of course, if Chanler promised to maintain the law against racetrack gamuoling, none ef the re peaters who have been colonized in the racetrack settlements would risk Sing Sing for him. If he pledged himself to remove Jerome, Ryan would drop in a faint and Parker and ‘Billy’ Sheehan would be recalled from the Hoffman House. If he admitted that he would sign a Coney Island b-cent fare bill Brady would pull off McCarren. So Chanler smokes his plpe, and instead of speaking out and acting the part of a man of brains and convictions, says between puffs, “I have no pet laws to enforce.” A man who would resort to cheat to get one nomination and treachery to get another will not hesitate to bargain with racetrack and Wall Street gamblers, with corporation wreckers or grafting politiclans Your silence is confession. I accuse you, Chanler, of a bargain with Con ners to help land him in the Senate. I accuse vou, Chanler, of a bargain with the gamblers not to oppose a return of racetrack gambling. I ac cuse you, Chanler, of a bargain with the: Ryan interests to break down the vitality and efficiency of corporation control through the I'ublic Service commissions. COERCION STOR Y DENIED. Singer Company Manager Says Democratic Tale Is False. For several weeks Chairman Mack of the Dem ocratic Naticnal Committee has, by inuendo, said that heads of large manufacturing enterprises had been coercing their employes to vote for Taft. These rumors have been allowed to spread around Democratic headquarters in the Hoffman House without any procf being offered by the com mittee. Yesterday the committee sent out a trust ed representative to ‘“‘make good” on one of these stories. How groundless all of the rumors have been may be judged from the report made on this one, which was given out at the headquarters last night. It says: The charge that the Singer Sewing Machine Company, through its general manager, superin tendents and foremen, was coercing the employes of {ts immense plant at Elizabethport, N. J., to vote for Mr. Taft, and warning them that if Mr. Bryan were elected a business depression would set in, necessitating the shutting down of the works, was indignantly denied late yesterday by Edward Bennett, general manager of the com pany, at his residence {in Bayonne. Information had reached the Democratic Na tional Committee that the heads of the Singer company were particularly active in Mr. Taft's behalf, and a representative of the press bureau was sent to Mr. Bennett for a statement. He eald: “The charge that our company is engaged in promoting the candidacy of Mr. Taft is a lie, and you cannot state it so too emphatically. IT would like to get proof that any man in our employ, re ardless of how high or low his position may be, s endeavoring to prevail upen our men to vote for Taft, Ervan or any one else; he would be minus a pesition so quick he would not have time to know how it happened. Mr. Bennett gaid he had not registered. PRESIDENT PRAISES PROF. SPINGARN. Washington, Oct. 13H. A.

TAFT IN THREE STATES Sf ee rT tee proposition which would drive every con servative and reputable banker out of business. WILMINGTON'S WARM RECEPTION. It remained for Wilmington to give Mr. Taft the largest and most enthusiastic reception, in proportion to the city's size, he has had to-day or for several days. From the moment he left the train until he reached the platform, opposite the Capitol, he was the centre of a continuous cheer. Every available inch of space in the windows and on the fronts of the buildings along the ten blocks which led to the platform was utilized by men and women who waved flags and handkerchiefs as they cheered the S— candidate. If crowds and enthusiasm count for anything, Delaware's three votes will be cast for Mr. Taft, and all the leaders say thers is not the slightest doubt about their state. At Battimore Mr. Taft attended a meeting held in the Lyric Theatre, under the auspices of the National League of Republican Clubs. It was called to order by ex-Representative Charles Schirm, president of the State League of Re publican Clubs. The crowd which sought admission to the Lyric was so far in excess of its capacity, over fifteen thousand applications for tickets having been received, that an outdcor overflow meeting wag held and a novel ‘arrangement was made for the purpose. A great float was utilized as a platform, and back of the speaker was a sounding board, which conserved his voice and materially added to its efficiency. On this plat form was a great American shield, surrounded with 360 electric lamps, so that the candidate stood in a blaze of light. Conservative Repub licans declare that Maryland will go Republican by from 8,000 to 10,000 votes. They insist that were it not for the Wilson ballot law, drafted and enacted for the purpose of disfranchising the negroes, the Republican majority would be much larger, but that even in the face of this obstacle Mr. Taft's plurality will not fall be low 8,000. Mr. Schirm introduced John Hayes Hammond, president of the national League, who presented Charles J. Bonaparte, Attorney General of the United States, as the presiding officer of the evening. Mr. Bonaparte spoke for about fifteen minutes, and then introduced Mr. Taft, who de voted his attention to the tariff, the restoration of prosperity and the vagaries of his opponent. In his speech Mr. Taft said, in part: I am going to occupy you only long enough to point out that the last thing that you ought to do in order to restore prosperity is to put in power the Democratic party, with Mr. Bryan at its head. 1

He: went around the world, and his Demo cratic friends in this neighborhood said, to use their own expression, “He has become safe and sane from an observation of the nationg of the world.” Mr. Bryan resented that imputation, and he proceeded to demonstrate its injustice by coming home and proposing-—what? He, a eJf fersonian Democrat, proposed a centralization. He said that there was no solution of the rail way problem except that the government should buy all the interstate railways, and that the states should buy the interstate railways, a centralization of power which makes, it seems to me, any patriot and any friend of this coun try tremble at the thought of what power f{t might put in 2a man down in Washington con trolling such an enormous amount of power. Mr. Taft denounced the Bryan scheme of guar

anteeing national bank deposits and gave his labor record to show that instead of being an enemy of labor he had in reality, although only performing his simple duty as a judge: on the bench, formulated the legal basis of labor's rights, on which they now rested in the courts. ME. TAFT'S ITINERARY CHANGED.

A result of the conference this morning be tween Mr. Taft and Chairman Hitchcock will be to eliminate Connecticut from the {itinerary of the candidate, and he will make at most only two long speeches each day of the final week of the campaign, which he will spend in New York State. Two of Mr. Taft's speeches scheduled for Wednesday night of next week in New York City will be abandoned. Dr. Rich ardson said that with the blg Madison Square Garden speech in view it would be necessary to handle Mr. Taft's voice carefully, so as to have him in condition to speak then. The day speeches from the rear of the car will’ be omit ted, leaving only the indoor engagements for Mr. Taft to fill. Dr. Richardson will accom- pany the candidate until the end of the cam paign. The meeting scheduled for Saturday night in Chicago has been abandoned. To-morrow Mr. Taft will speak in Cumber land, Md., and thrcugh West Virginia, on his way to Cincinnati, where he will arrive Wednes day morning for one day's rest. pt t—— SAYC MATT TWITTY OCAPRY AN rRDAQW@ A tee proposition which would drive every con servative and reputable banker out of business. WILMINGTON'S WARM RECEPTION. SAYS TAFT WILL CARRY NEBRASKA. Dr. J. Wesley Hill Declares Republican Vote in West Will Be Large. The Rev. Dr. John Wesley Hill, pastor of the Metropolitan Temple, has just returned from a campaign trip with Mr. Taft in the West. He said that the Taft sentiment there had greatly in creased, especially among the farmers and the 13 boring men.

“The people out Wesc are on flra over this cam paign,” said Dr. Hill; “there's no such thing as apathy with them, and I think you'll ind Mr. Taft rolling up a tremendous vote out there when Elec tion Day comes along.” Dr. HI predicted that Ohio would give Taft 75,000 plurality and that Indiana would give him 40,000. “Taft wii! carry Nebraska,” declared Dr. Hill ‘“‘He is very popular there, as in Wisconsin, Illinots, Minnesota and the Dakotas. To be sure, Mr. Bryan appears to be stronger In Indiana and Ohio than he was In 1900, but even the Democratic leaders out there tacitly admit that Taft will roll up blg votes in those states.” “TAFT AND HUGHES SURE IN ERIE» rH EEN Ee TOY Une Postmaster Frederick Greiner, of Buffalo, the Re publican ieader of Erie County, told State Chair man Woodruff yesterday that Taft and Sherman would carry Erie County by from 8.00 to 10,000.

Service of Accomplishments, Not Promises. Says Secretary. Cleveland, Oct. 1J.—"“The administration of Presi dent Roosevelt will go down in history as an administration of achievement, as one of the most brilliant and prosperous in the history of the na tion, its growth and development an era of un exampled prosperity, not unattended with evils, but evils that have been recognized, curbed and in a large measure redressed, so that the nation is rising out of them on a higher moral plane than ever before.” In these terms Oscar S. Straus, Secretary of Com merce and Labor, told a large audience at Gray's Armory to-night what he thought of the present Washington administration. The speaker continued: “There is much more constructive work to be done to complete the plans of betterment and re form which have been so clearly outlined by the President in his messages and public utterances. The question before tha American people is, Into whose Hands shall these policies of state be Intrust ed? Shall they be intrusted to one whose oratory is always captivating, but whose remedies are worse than the evils he would eradicate, or do they want a man whose years of unsclish service have been full, not of promises, but of accomplishment and patriotic deeds; ona who has justly been called the wise administrator and the great pacificator, whose title rests, not upon phrases, but upon things doae, and well done?”

Earlier in the day Secretary Straus addressed the Business Men's Club, saying the moment Taft is elected fear of what may come will be lifted from the worker and busin:ss man and prosperity will come at once.

i LAWYERS WORKING FOR BECKETT.

All Attorneys in City Asked to Get Their Clients to Vote for Surrogate The committee of two hundred lawyers recently chosen to assist in the election of Charles FH. Beckett as Surrogate met yesterday, and plans for carrying out this work were considered. A circu lar letter, to be sent to the eleven thousand prac tising lawyers in this city, was written and then signed by a hundred and fifty of the most promi nent lawyers of New York.

This letter not only urges all the attorneys to vote for Mr. Beckett, but asks them to use their influence to secure the support of their clients for the Surrogate. The candidate's career on the bench is briefly reviewed in the letter, and strong reasons are given for his election. A committee was appointed ta organize the real estate interests in the legal profession, and another was appointed to raise funds for the campalgn.

“TAFT AND STABILITY.”

Motto of Business Men's Clubs All Over. the Countru. To show better their sertiments, business men al! over the country have been organizing business men’s Taft clubs. They want to prove that the business men themselves consider that prosperity ig unlikely with Bryan as President. In most in stances the committees of these clubs include Dem ocrats, showing that party lines are being forgot ten in the desire to continue sound business con ditions. In Indianapolis, Clacinnati and Chicago clubs have been organized, with memberships running into the thousands. Cleveland, Dayton and several other cities have active clubs, while new ones ure being formed every day throughout Indiana. In Buffalo a committee consisting of 8S. M. Clement, William A. Rogers, John I. Clawson, George B. Montgomery, R. W. Pomeroy, Jacob C. Dold, William H. Faxon, Hobart Weed and Jesse Dann, representing respectively banking, irom, drygoods, lumter, law, meat packing, wholesale grocery, hardware and brokerage, shows how wide spread is the feeling for “Taft ang stability’ in the business community of that active city. Of all the cities in the United States the two in which there is the most noticeable revolt against Bryan by the business men are Baltimore and St. Louis. There the trouble has been not to get men lo serve on the committees, but to keep them down 10 a working size. Seme of the associations connected with the New York Business Men's Taft Club are the Merchant Tailors’, Machinery and Metals, Drug Trades, Ex porters’, Sporting Gools, Leaf Tobacco, Millinery’, Jewellers’, Hatters’, Insurance, Lawyers’, North Side Business Men's, Prooklyn Rusiness Men's, Railroad Men's Exchange, Real Estate Exchange, Wholesale Drygoods, Bankers and Brokers’, Archi tects’, Electrical Trades, Grocers’. Shoe Trade, Piano Trade, Paper Trade, Structural Iron and Steel and Lumber. The Bankers and Brokers' Taft and Sherman Club issued yesterday a request that the men of the financial district ‘ufn out in force for the px rade on October 21 ELECTION INSPECTORS REMOVED. Registered Man Convicted cf Felony and Sen tenced to Penitentiarv The Foard of Elections had a full docket of complaints for hearing last night. Some of them were preferred against elaction officers by Super intendent IL.eary. The fuil beard of election in spectors from the 19th Election District of the 16tn Assembly District was on the carpet on the complaint of Mr. Leary, who charged that they had illegally registered a man after he had admit ted that he had been convicted of a felony and sentenced to the Kings County Penitentiary. The offending inspectors were removed and new ones will be put in their places.

In the 27th Assembly District hearing was given on an objection to the independent nomination of Andrew Robinson for the Assembly. Evidence was given to show that the nominating petition was fatally defective and that soma of those whose names were on the petition did not sign it per sonally. Counsel! for Andrew Robinson has until to-night to answer the charges. The same objection was made to the petition nominating Thomas A. Murphy for Assembly—in dependent nomination—in the Tth Assembly District,

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1908. 3 PLATT SEES VICTORY State Will Give Taft 50,000, Senator Predicts. Senator Thomas C. Platt says that Taft will carry this state by 50,00¢. The vote on Hughes and Chan ler will be very close, the Senator says. Senator Platt is not taking an active interest in the campaign. He went to Owego as usual to register, and will go thera to vote two weeks from to-day, but he is not physically able to hustle for the national ticket. When seen yesterday at his apartment {n West 1ith street he had just returned from his office in the United States Express Build ing at Rector street. “Taft will win,” sald Senator Platt. “It is a hard fight for the Republicans this year, but things are going our.way, and it is safe to predict Taft's elec tion. A prominent Ohio Democrat was in here on Saturday last. He told me that while the Repub lican vote in Ohio would show a large shrinkags as compared with four years ago, Taft would carry the state, along with Indiana, Wisconsin and other so-called close Western states. “The plain thinking American citizen, unless be nighted by too closa affiliation with the Democratic party, will vote for the candidates representing prograss and sanity. Bryan is only one or two removes further from political aberration than he was eight years ago. He has the political rabies in his syatem, and if he were elected President the people never would know when he would run amuck, spreading consternation and ruin in his path. The sensible people vredominate in this ccuntry and they wiil not elect Bryan. “The average American citizen wants to make money. He wants to make it honestly, but he wants to make it. He wants to make it for the sake of his wife and children. He wants to make it so that in his old age he won't be a burden to kis children. He does not care particularly for champagne or automobiles, but he does want a chance to lay by something for a rainy day. He wouldn't get this under Bryan. “At the end of four years Bryan, as President, would be teiling the impoverished people of this country that with another four years he would be able to make good. Bryan has learned a few things in the last twelve years. But he hasn't gotten over wanting everything painted red. It is congenital with him. There is hope for him if he can live about two hundred and fifty years.” i “How large a margin will Taft have in this state?” “Not as large as we could wish for. He will have about 50,600.” “And Hughes?" “I don't. care to make any prophecy about Hughes. 1 think the vote on Hughes and (hanler will be very close. 1 understand that Hughes is confident he will win.” “Ilo you lcok for a business revival in case Taft is elected?” “Certainly,” said Mr. Platt. “There isn't any doubt of it. Just is soon as Taft is elected you will see announcements >f orders for goods pouring into the wholesalers and manufacturers. Factories on half time will’ run full time. Credit will be ex tended, and we shall have another period of uni versal industrial prosperity. The wage earner wants it just as sincerely as the employer. What is good for one is good for the other.” “Who 1s yecur candidate for United States Senator to succeed yourself?” “It isn’t Thomas C. Platt,” said Mr. Platt, with a grim smile. “I said some time ago I would not be au candidate, and I shall not. I shall retire next March-with- my ‘honors thick upon me.” “Are you going to help any one in the race?” “I have a number of friends who will be candi jates, but J am not ready at this time to say whom would like to gee in my place.” Senator Platt gets down to business every day, he same as usual. He is feeble in his legs, but his nind is clear and strong. His apartment in West 1th street is off the beatan track of the politiciana nd he doesn’t see any of them, but his old friends lrop in on him from time to time, keeping him in be re eee ee

THE GORHAM CO Wedding Gifts Silverware Goldware Leather Bronze Mounted Glase Novelties 5 Ave. 362 St. 19 MAIDEN IANE Predicts. MACK HAS ROSY DREAM. Gives All Doubtful States to Bryan with Bie Plurdlities. Chairman Mack of the Democratic National Com mittee returned to the Eastern headquarters at the Hoffman House yesterday with rosy prophecies as to the strength that Bryan would show on Elec tion Day. It is understood that privately Mr. Mack told his friends that the result depended entirely on New York State, but for publication purposes he claimed all the states that have been placed in the doubtful eolumn by any of the es-called authorities.

“l am firmly convinced that William J. Bryan will be elected bv a landslide.” said Mr. Mack. “Within the last two weeks I have caused a careful poli to be made hy captains in hundreds of pre cincts in New York, Indiana and Ohio for the pur pose of obtaining the percentage of Republican loss over four years ago. The results of that poll were amazing. In no instances have the reports made me shown the percentage of Republican loss in this state to be less than 25 per cent, and in Erie County the losses to the Republicans ran as high 83 40 per cefmt. Equally large losses to the Re publicans were shown not only in Ohio and Indi ana, but In the twelve other states which the two parties are contesting. These figures mean only one thing —PRryan’s election by tremendous plural ities. i i

“That these figures are correct and based on a careful poll is shown from the fact that I directed the precinct captains to subniit with their reports the names of the Republicans, with their addresses, who intended to vote for Mr. Bryan.” He added that a postal card poll taken in Indian apolis, Buffalo and Columbus showed there was a change of from 25 to 40 per cent of votes from Roosevelt to Bryan in Indiana, New York and Ohio. “I am confident that New Jersey, New York, Maryland, West Virginia, Indiana, Rhode Island, Ohlo, Nebraska. California. Colorade ang Montan: will be in the Democratic column,” said Mr. Mack. “Illinois is a doubtful state. I hope, however, that because of the large labor vote in that state Mr. Bryan will be able to carry it. “If my theory holds good,” Chairman Mack added, “I am positive that Mr. Bryan wil] carry New York State by 50,000."

aaa ee i ts rm TY Chairman Mack was in a state of exaltation from the receipt of a cable message from Richard Croker, which read: “I contribute 31.000 to Bryan and $600 to Chanler.” j

The campaign managers believe that this will induce the members of the old Croker guard in Tammany Hall to “loosen up.” Iwas glad to receive that contribution,” said Chairman Mack, “because I know that Mr. Croker at least does not expect anything from his con ribution.”

i

Late yesterday afternoon Chairman Mack had a onference with Chairman Conners of the state ‘ommittee and Charles F. Murphy, the leader of fammany Hall.

“I was particularly glad to see Mr. Murphy,” aid Mr. Mack with a smile, “in view of tha $10,000 ontributed by his organization.”

Asked regarding the reports of conditions in this ounty made by Mr. Murphy, Chairman Mack gen ralized by saying: “He talked very favorably, I hought.” Regarding the Socialist vote this year Chairman fack said: ‘I do not think it will be more than {n ast years. My reasons for making this statement re good, but I do not care to discuss them at hig time.” BRYAN MORE DESPERATE. Now Says Republicans Are Prepar ing to Buy the Election.

Chicago, Oct. 19.—The feature of Willlam J. Bryan’s journey through Illinois to-day was the ac cusation, repeatedly made, that the Republican party was preparing to rurchase the election. The statement was first made at Alton. The Democrats, he said, were asking for only $190,000 with which to finish the work of the campaign, while the Repub licans were .asking for $1,000,000. “What do they need the money for now?” he ingfiired, and, an swering his own question. he declared that it was for use on Election Day, ‘as they have used .it year after year.”

2

_ Mr. Bryan arrived here to-night at 8 o'clock and was taken to Pilsen Park, where he addressed a crowd. From Pilsen Purk he was escorted to Arcade Hall, where another big crowd was on hand. “If IT am elected President,” sald Mr. Bryan—"and the more I travel and mingle with the people the more convinced I am that 1 will be elected—if I am elected I intend to have a Secretary of Labor as a member of the (Cabinet. The affairs of the workingmen of this country are too great not to have a representative on the President's advisory board. From this Secretary I should seck advice on legislation of Interest to the workingman.”

Taking up the publication of campaign funds, Mr. Bryan sald: “I asked a large audience whether they were In favor of the Republican method of publishing conirtbutions after the campaign or the Democratic way of publishing them before. asked all in favor of th: Republican way to ho'd up their hands Not one hand was displayed.”

Mrs. Gelshenen was wanted as a witness in the famous Morse-Dodge divorce trial, but went to Europe. She had many dealings with the bank. At another time Mrs. Gelshenen invested $135,000 in a transaction in Ice stock and made a profit of $39,0x). This was in connection with one of the alleged “dummy’” loans made to Davison Brown, a clerk in the office of Prim rose &.Braun, the Morse brokers.

Primrose was called to the National Bank of North America in June, 1907, and told by President Curtis that the bank wanted Primrose Braun to sign a note to the Mercantile for $200,000 with the proviso that the bank would stand behind the loan and pay the interest.

Arthur Braun, Mr. Primrose's partner, agreed to the making of the note. which was duly signed and sent to the Mercantile. “The collat eral behind this loan was three thousand shares of Ice stock. The interest on this note was paid by the National Bank of North America up to October 1. 1907, when payments apparently ceased. It Is understood that the note and ac crued interest since October 1, 1807, have never been paid, and that it is on this note that the Mercantile is suing the receiver of the National Bavk of North America at present.

eee Buffalo, Oct. 18.—The problem of financing the work of the National Woman Suffrage Association cropped up to-day and for a time clogged the machinery of the convention. In executive session President Anna H. Shaw talked strongly to the delegates about their failure to provide the na tional organization with the means to carry on its work. Jt was finally decided to make an effort at the afterncon session to raise at least $5,000 by voluntary subscription. The contributions had reached $3.33 when a messencer handed President Shaw a letter from Mrs. Catherine B. Lewis, of Buffalo, inclosing a check for $1060. President Shaw announced the tenor and contents of the letter, which brought joy. 4

It was so late when the executive session ad journed that part of the programme for this morn ing was temporarily lald aside.

The afternoon session opened with a symposium on “Stock Objections to Woman Suffrage.” Mrs. Mary T. L. Gannett, of Rochester, sald that “women not only want the ballot, but would use it intelligently.” Miss Maude E. Miner, probation officer in the night court of New York City, spoke on the asser tion often made of the evil influence of the im moral vote in the event of the enfranchisement of women. Miss Miner said the percentage of such a vote would be so small that it was not worth considering, and gave figures from the New York courts t5 show that in that city it would be less than 1 per cent. “And even a portion of this vote could be depended on to cast their vote right on moral issues,” she said.

Miss Caroline Lexow, of New York, and Miss Laura Gregg, of Kansas, also spoke. At the night session addresses were made by leading advocates of woman suffrage from various parts of the country.’ WOMAN RESCUES HORSES. Saves Eighteen from Burning Barn ond. A. Blair's Estate.

B. F. Rhine hart, be brought to trial. The President di rected the Department of Justice to investigate the case without delay. Rhinehardt is charged with abstracting $1,300,000 from the bank's funds over two years ago. The depositors toid the President that they feared the prosecution would be ailowed to rest until indictments growing out of the con viction of the cashier would be cutlawed by thse statute of limitations. They declared the United States District Attorney said he had not pro ceeded because of lack of evidence. Later the Attorney General conferred with the President and announced that the complaints against Mr. Dunkle would be investigated, that course hav N

FOREST FIRE IN THE CITY. Staten Island Volunteers Call on Paid Firemen for Help. The towns of Oakwood and Great Kills, Staten Island, were threatened with destruction last night by a forest fire set, it is believed, by a spark from a locomotive of the Staten Island Railway. The fire started just west of the rallroad tracks and was spread westward by the heavy wind. In some instances the fire reached within twenty feet of houses, the occupants becoming so alarmed that they fled.

I i

The volunteer firemen of Giffords, Great Kllis and Huguenot were soon on the scene, but were unable to cope with the flames. Word was tele phoned to the pald department at Tottenvile, and every man in the department was sent out. The residents of the two villages joined with the fire men, and at 3 o'clock last night they had the fire under control.

The fire could be plainly seen by thousands of commuters on their way home from Manhattan. This is the first big forest fire that has occurred on Staten Island in over twenty vears. i BR DENSE PALL COVERS CITY The murkiest day this city has experienced in many years came vesterday, when a pall of local dust and fog, mingled with much imported smoke froin the forest fires upstate and in New Jersey and New England, settled over the entire harbor, causing considerable delay in waterway trafic.

The present warm wave has been prolonged because of a great area of high pressure. This area, however, has moved up over the St. Lawrence Valley and clearer and cooler weather may now be expected. The temperature took an unusual drop in the afternoon yesterday. The maximum, 74 degrees, was recorded at noon, and at 9:50 p. m. the official mercury had dropped to &d degrees. The humidity varied little throughout the day, fluctuating be tween 32 and 54 per cent. The ferry traffic about the harbor was delaved considerably, but no service was suspended. The fog and smoke extended well out to sea and de layed many incoming steamers. Fair weather and northeast winds are promised for to-dav. KNOWN DEAD FORTY-ONE Feared That Many Others Perished in Michiecan. However.

Alpena, Mich, Oct. 19.—The verified dead in the forest fires in Presque Isle and Alpena counties stands to-night at 41, with several! still missing and a growing probability of severe loss of life in northern Pulaski and Crakow townships, in Presque Isla County, the first indication of which came yesterday with the finding of six bodies in Pulawski, including those of Mrs. Herman Erke and children. Two woodsmen to-day found the skeleton of Mrs. Willlam D. Rose, living near Ocqueoe. The woman's husband was away working. Evidences of back firing bear mute testimony to her hopeless fight for life. At least sixty families were living near the shore of Lake Huron, in the northern half of Pulaski and Crakow townships, and practically nothing has been heard from them since the fires. It is said that the flames swept ‘al! through this district to the water's edge.

At Grand Lake a farmer and wife and four chil dren are known to have taken refuge in a boat, and nothing has been heard from them since. A dozen school children sent home by teachers have not been heard from. Near Posen Mr. and Mrs. Hines are still missing. While fires are still burning throughout the north ern ter of counties, not a single village or town is now Known to be in danger. Some apprehension is felt for Grace Harbor, on the shore of Lake Huron, northwest of here, from which no word has been received since the fires. Along the eight miles of road from Posen to Ha gensville iwenty-eight farmers were wiped out The total number of houses destroyed in Presque Isle, Alpena and Montmorency counties is over three hundred. y i Today's CONCERT In the Auditorium at 2 PB AM.

Austrian Bluejackets Reported Landed—Steamer Seized Berlin, Oct. 19.—The Vienna correspondent of the “Tageblatt” reports a skirmish between an Austrian naval guard and a mob of Montene grins at Antivari. He says that a crowd of Montenegrins threatened the Austrian Consul. A guard for his protection was sent ashore from two Austrian cruisers and a torpedo boat and had a skirmish with the mob, which lasted sev eral hours. The Budapest correspondent of the “Tage blatt” says that an Austrian torpedo boat has seized a British steamer near Cattaro, on the Bay of Antivari, laden with arms and ammuni tion intended for Montenegro.

So much for the brutal murderer, but who brings into court the destitute, fatherless children of the poor workman murdered in cold blood be cause he obeyed the instincts of an almighty Father, who impelled him to seek work to feed his little ones? What play is ever made by them to sway a jury? The murderer is sup ported by the funds of the Labor Trust. The orphans of the victim have ne money to heip them ohtain inetice The Labor Trust leaders proclaim peaceful intent and publicly decry violence. Such bare faced assertions as that of the President of the American Federation of Labor that “Organized Labor is one of the most potent factors for the preservation of peace,” is only interesting as in illustration of the extreme impudence of these leaders with a most terrible record of eriminal procedure behind them. It lately became pub lic that this Trust expended upward of $130, 000.00 to defend its members in the Haywood Moyer trial, securing acquittal by a frightened jury, notwithstanding the fact that the judge who presided at the trial announced afterward that the testimony implicating the members of the Labor Trust in the deeds of violence was in his opinion true.

The Labor Trust shouts for the public ear, and winks in another direction while it finds it necessary to rush to the support of its criminal embers, in order to “keep up the work.” Without certainty of protection the slugger would quickly become discouraged. The victim of the Labor Trust dare not publicly protest even if he lives through the entertainment by the “entertainment committee” and the wives, widows and children have no way to bring their wrongs to the public ear. The poorhouse may take care of some and the streets of some but the suffering. terror and agony put upon the children, wives and widows of independent workingmen is known only to themselves and their God and no one seems to have the human ity or bravery to speak in their defense.

Thousands of individual members of organized labor have hearts as tender as can be found in all human nature but they seem powerless in the iron grasp of impudent and desperate ty rants who hold them bound and who extort from them not only money but “obedience” and bring reproach on the very name of Labor.

Honest Union Men Helpless. Let an honest union man raise his volce in protest at a union meeting and the “men of violent tendencies” cry him down with shouts to “throw dat guy out de window” and if he don’t shut up he may expect to be violently and effectively shut up. Some day let us hope that organized labor will get rid of the present lead ers and conduct the sale of irs prodr t+ labor) in the peaceful legal manner of business men who sell the ordinary products of humanity, and when they cannot sell their bor at a satisfac tory price to one man. do as the farmer does who offers his wheat to snuother buyer and either sells it at the highest vrice the market will warrant or keeps it for a higher market but does not picket the mill. ss<ault other farm ers who prefer to sell ther wheat. or blow up the mill whose owner cauaot at that time buy at the price asked. The man who has saved money with which to purchase wheat or labor should not be maimed. mur cred or his property destroyed be cause he does not feel like parting with that money to buy wheat or labor when he either does not want it or knows the price to be too high to warrant its purchase. Any attempt at coercion should be promptly and effectually punished by the courts and the bullies put where they cannot again tyrannize over inde pendent Americans.

This rapid growth of anarchy and evident pur ose of the Labor Trust to dictate just what persons shall be employed, how long and at what price and how much pay to the managers has taught every man who has saved a dollar and wants to build a house or establish a fae tory, that he had better keep his money in some safe investment, instead of going into some thing where he would be actually forced to buy labor when not needed and to employ men he don’t want.

In other words, the man who has a little money to invest don't propose to have any trust, even the Labor Trust, tell him how or where to pay it out. This widespread attack of the Labor Trust on citizens who would have invest in labor if allowed to invest peaceably. has been one of the strongest ele ments which brought on the panic. Men who bave money to build. don’t like to be harassed to death by continued impudent in terference, and expensive delays by labor union tangles, therefore hundreds of them don't build. So with proposed new factories and other en terprises. Between gogues and attacks on panic came bringing thousands. The demand bY the Labor Trust leaders for an anti-injunction law, is quite in keeping with the purposes of the tyrannous leaders. A care ful investigation of the records of all Federal courts for the past 5 years discloses the facet that only 20 injunctions have issued in labor disputes and in not one of these cases has the superior court reversed or failed to approve. NO other subject handled by our money to the loud mouthed political dema the Labor Trust leaders, the steady industries dried them up and tbe idleness and misery to THANKS F.(OM CZAR FERDINAND. Impudent Pretense. NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1908. NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, ALL TOKIO CHEERING WELCOME TO ADMIRAL. Most Hearty Greetings to Americans —President’s Message. Tokio, Oct. 20.—The reception accorded the American Atlantic fleet by the government and people of Japan is conceded by the American naval officers to be the heartiest and most per fectly carried out of all the welcomes since the warships saired from Hampton Roads. Rear Admiral Sperry said to-day that he was unable to say how it had been accomplished, but that the welcome had been so carefully planned and carried out to the most minute detail that a lasting impression has been stamped on the mind of every American who has witnessed fit. The men of the American and japanese fieets are fraternizing everywhere in Tokio and Yoko hama. Every wish of the American sailors is anticipated, and each bluejacket finds an Eng lish speaking guide among the Japanese sailors. It is impossible to doubt the sincerity of the Japanese. The American officers and sailors are already beginning to understand that the desire on the part of the Japanese for the friendship of America is not founded on opportunism, but finds its source in a sincere wish to show that such friendship, at least on the part of the Japanese, has existed always, and that this visit has merely afforded an opportunity for that ex pression. There can be no doubt that the simultaneous visits of the American exposition commissioners, the Pacific Coast business men and the Atlantic fleet are a part of an organized plan of the Japanese to wipe out all misunderstanding be tween Japan and America.

Admiral Sperry will be received at the im perial palace this morning, and to-morrow the admirals and captains of the fleet will be the guests of the Empercr at the palace. Admiral Sperry will convey to the Empercr a message from President Roosevelt. The words of this message have not been given out, but there is reason to believe that it breathes a spirit of friendship and sympathy and expresses the tra ditional friendship between the two nations, and an earnest wish for the strengthening and con tinuance of the friendly relations. It is thought that the Emperor may break his rule and make some statement in terms similar to those used bv President Roosevelt.

courts has been as free from mistake. Humanity is prone to weakness and error, and our courts are human, but fortunately for mankind ‘we find less error and weakness in the handling of restraining orders or “injunctions” in labor cases than in any other department of legal! proce dure, and the most remarkable fact in all this anti-injunction agitation is that thus far pot mem one single case has been shown where an Inno AERSEE SEEN SEI STD Da I x a cent wan has been harmed, Emi Hl cent wan has been harmed. nan has been harme What are Injunctions. “Now what is an injunction” someone asks. When it becomes known that the trust leaders plan to have their sluggers waylay other work men and assault them, or picket and spit on and insult or attack American citizens going to or coming from work, or plan to destroy some ma chinery, blow up a factory, mine or workman's home or do any other act of violence or crime, the courts established by the people and for their protection can issue a “restraining order” or “injunction” ordering these men not to do the acts they intend, until the court ean have time to enquire into the rights in the case.

Every man with his mind set on revenge or violence, and every single inmate of every pen itentiary in this country hates a court injunc tion like a mad dog hates water.

What does the man who fears an injunction have in his mind? 4 Do yon believe he is seeking peace? No citizen who was at home or on the street on a peaceful, lawful mission has ever been troubled by a cowwt order to prevent men from attacking property or persons. It has been

r mon for Labor leaders (7?) and a few pol iticians to say that courts bave “abused” the right to issue injunctions in labor cases. After a careful search of the records Hon. Charles E. Littlefield made open request of President Roosevelt to cite one single injunction wherein peace intending citizens had been harmed and our estimable President was put in the embar rassing position of having stated that “abuses had arisen” because some interested persons had so told him. but on demand for the cases, thev could not be produced.

I now again offer $1000.00 in cash for evi dence of a single case in the past five years in labor disputes where conrt injunctions to pro tect persons and property have been opposed to the public good. No person can produce one. Why therefore, should the Labor Trust leaders so strenuously demand that the courts be stripped of the right to issue injunctions to protect people and property.

These leaders want to be free to order the sluggers to proceed with their work and their dynainiters to blow up Lomes or property be fore the courts can inte¥vene to protect. “That's exactly what is meant by the proposal to pre veni any court from issuing a restralning order without five to seven day's notice. That would give time to the intending criminals to do their work and get into hiding before the court can protect those whom the sluggers intend to harm. The independent workingman’'s home could thus be blown up 2nd he taught the danger of dis obedience of “orders” of the Labor Trust.

It's a pitiable condition, that of workingmen, both union and non-union when they dare dis obey any Labor Trust managers order however impudent or tyrannous. Shall we nourish the further growth of such power centred in the hands of a few misnamed “Taber leaders” now seeking to tell Union men that they must vote for the party pledged to enact any law these trust leaders ask looking to more power, if they will “deliver the labor vote?! Trade on Labor Vote. That trade was a humiliating insult to every liberty-loving workman in America and they are quite justified in the general resentmyent against

it. The political managers of both great parties wish “Pest would keep still.” “He talks too plain.” “He don’t know any more about politics than a rabbit.” But amidst all the word twist ing. pretense, cowardice, side stepping, and boot licking of politics before a National campaign it is refreshing to take a few long deep breaths, wipe the cobwebs out of ones eyes and take a good, keen, close look at exact facts.

Post as President of the National Citizens’ Industrial Association has a duty to parform without fear or favor of any pelitical party or class organization either of Capital or Labor, and when these facts are placed before the 20 to 80 million readers of this article and they realize the danger to their properties and per sonal liberties by voting for class legislation and privilege, that duty will have been done. It may interest you to know that Post was lately elected an Honorary member of ene of the high est grade Trade Unions in America, the Na tional Association of Stationary Engineers in recognition of his services in trying to stamp out the eriminal and tyrannous control of affairs by the present mismamed Labor Leaders and to bring the labor movement to a more gceful and lawful management and therefore back to the respect and esteem of the publie and wipe from the sacred name of “Labor” the odinm and disgrace these trust leaders have smeared upon it. A better time ig coming and every honest American can do his part to bring it about. There's a Reason. C. W. POST, Battle Creek, Mich. $1000 Reward.

Toklo, Oct. 19.—The trip of Rear Admiral Sperry and his officers from Yokohama to Tokio was marked by a continual greeting along the eighteen miles of the route. Each village school turned out in force, every pupil waving an American and Japanese flag and cheering. Reaching Toklo, the train was met by a com mittee of representatives of every department of the government, and the staff of the Ameri can Embassy. After an exchange of formal greetings a procession was formed. A band struck up the national hymn, and ten thousand school children, massed at the aproach to the station, sang the words in English. The chil dren then gave the American cheer and a tiger. The admirals of the American fleet were driven to the Shiba Palace in imperial car riages attended by aids. The twenty-seven cap tains and commanders were taken to the Im perial Hotel. The streets leading to both places were packed hundreds deep with madly cheer ing crowds. The waving flags resembled a sea of red, white and blue. It is said that the return of Admiral] Togo to Tokio after his victory of the Sea of Japan did not arouse as great enthusiasm &s was manl fested to-day. The admirals received official calls this morn ing and returned them, after which they called on Ambassador O'Brien and were his guests at an informal luncheon, only the embassy staff and the naval officers being present. This was followed by- two garden parties, one at the American Embassy and the other at the resi dence of Baron Iwasaki. A dinner was given to-night by the American Ambassador at the Imperial Hotel. Proposing the health of Admiral Sperry and his officers, Ambassador O'Brien said he desired to extend his greeting to everybody present, especially to the brave and tried officers of the Japanese navy. Hse referred to the beginning of relations between the two countries fifty-six years ago and traced the progress of Japan, saying in con clusion: “May I ask you to agree with me in the belief that this memorable visit always will stand as an exalted lesson in the brotherhood of man, and as an evidence that we are free from that pride, arrogance, suspicion and greed to which most wars*in the past may be traced.” Count Komura, Minister of Foreign Affairs, said in closing his speech of welcome that it was the hope of his life and of his country that friendship would continue unbrokenly, and on behalf of himself and the nation he desired to express every hope for the welfare and pros perity of America. Admiral Sperry’s response aroused great en thusiasm. He highly praised the educational achievements of Japan, and said: “This visit of the American fleet will bring the two nations closer together than would a hundred years of ordinary intercourse, because this co-mingling of young men imbued with the same ideas and of a high order of intelligence, gives common ground for sympathy and mutual understand Ing.” The admiral closed his speech with a graceful tribute to the gallant achievements of the Jap anese Navy. MAINE AND ALABAMA IN. First Battleships to Complete Tour of the World Reach Port. Portsmouth, N. H., Oct. 13.—The battleship Maine, the first of the far-flung skirmish line of the round-the-world cruise of the United States Navy to enter home waters, steamed into Portsmouth Navy Yard at 8:15 o'clock this morning. She had completed the circuit of the globe and had meas ured a course of 35,000 miles in 308 days out from Hampton Roads. The Maine will remain at Portsmouth twenty-six days for docking, and will then go on the North Atlantic station as the flagship for a month or two. Following this she-will go out of commission. Delight was expressed on the face of every “Jacky” who tumbled over the side to assist in docking the ship. A machinist’'s mate had pre pared a history of the cruise In the form of a blue covered pamphlet, giving complete data of the battleship’s performances. It appeared that the battleship had steamed a total of 36,111 miles, al though the aggregate distance from pert to port was 33,292 miles. She burned 22,000 tons of coal, and her engines had made approximately 13,000,000 revo lutions. No important accident of any kind hap pened to the machinery. The pamphlet notes that in passing the 23,000 tons of coal more than two hundred and fifty shovels were worn out.

The Maine is thc second battleship to complete a circuit of the globe, the Ohio, which was built at San Francisco, having gone first to Manila, thence coming to New York and later returning to San Francisco. The Maine is the first battleship to do it in a practically continuous cruise. Flying her long homeward bound pennant at the ma:n and looking trim as a yacht after her thirty five thousand-mile trip around the world, the bat tleship Alabama, flagship of the special service squadron, commanded by Captain Ten Eyck De Witt Veeder, steamed past Sandy Hook at 3:30 yes terday afternoon, anchoring off Tompkinsville, Staten Island, an hour later. The Alabama, which has completed the voyage in 308 days, is the first of the American fleet of battleships which left Hamp ton Roads on December 18, 1807, to return to this pert,

Captains of harbor craft had planned a noisy reception for the Alabama. They expected her to day, but she crept up the main ship channel yes terday in the haze, almost unnoticed. Captain Veeder, his officers and men are in the bes: of health. When seen on board last night they were enthusiastic over the ship's performance, and they were inclined to resent the report that the Alabama was a cripple. They point with pride to the fact that her last day's run was 293 knots, or at the rate of about twelve knots. The Alabama's starboard high pressure cylin der is cracked, and it is sald that the government has appropriated $637,000 for repairs to the engines, which will furnish employment for quite a large force of men at the navy yard.

E. W. Cooper, an electrician, was the only man who died on the homeward passage. He was buried at Genoa. The scout cruiser Salem gave the Alabama a squadron salute upon her arrival at Tompkinsville.

They did not even have to “show causz” why they had not done so when the case came up vesterday morning in Part I of the Supreme Court, though Miss Coleman argued her case with great vigor. “My client has voted at three national elec tions, your honor,” she said. “But not in New York State,” interrupted the judge. “That doesn't make any difference, if your honor pleases,” argued Portia ‘according to the Constitution of the United States, no law the State of New York can make can deprive her of a right which she previously enjoyed as a citizen of the United States. If this were simply a state election it would be a different matter, but it is a national election. The question is not shall the state rule, but shall the people rule.” “Motion denied,” ruled the judge, and the next case was called. The blue plumes subsided, but will reappear again in due time, the suffragettes say. “We expected this,” said Miss Coleman, “and we are not going to drop the case. We will not stop short of the Supreme Court of the United States Eclectics Forced to Give Up Cherished Idea of Waldorf Club. The first meeting of the Feclectle Club this sea son will be devoted to the business of eating crow, the executive having already agreed upon that course. The greater Eclectic, which was to have occupied the state apartments at the Waldorf, with their $25,000 a year rental and all their opportuni ties for those joys usually denied to feminine club dom, has falled to materialize. Of the three hun dred names which the club hoped to add to its membership during the summer, making a total of five hundred, only fifty have been secured. So, af ter near!y wrecking the club to carry the Wal dorf plan, the greater Eclectic party, under the leadership of the president of the club, Mrs. Doré Lyon, will now move to put the membership back at the old figure of two hundred, In which the fifty new members can easily be included. The club has decided to move from Delmonico’s, where it has been domiciled for many years, but instead of taking the state apartments at the Wal dorf- Astoria, it has secured the Astor gallery for its meetings and the leather room for its luncheons. Due Care for the Pots and Pans—Have a Thorough Overhauling Annually. “Cleanliness as regards cookirg utensils is one of the first requisites of a successful kitchen,” said the lecturer and demonstrator who was beginning her year's course of instruction in cocking. “Utensils are the preliminaries to cooking: therefore a good quarter of an hour may well be devoted tc them.” In brief, the suggestions which followed were: All pans and pots should be cleaned at once or soon after their use, and by no means left over until the next meal or perhaps tne next day. Utensils in general when they are taken from the stove should be filled with boiling water, to which a pinch of soda has been added, except in the case ‘of aluminum, which soda blackens. Then the uten sills should be rinsed well carefully cleaned, dried and set away. The pans, however, which have been used for sweet things—cakes and the like—should be rinsed with ccld water before they are cleaned with boiling water. Frying pans ought never to be cleaned with water, but rather wiped out thor oughly with pieces of soft paper until the paper itself is clean after this rubbing process. If food particles are burned on to the frying pan rub them off with a little salt. Agate or enamelled pans should never be scraped, as nothing breaks into the glaze so quickly as scraping. As for copper pans, continued the demonstrator, unless they can be exceedingly well looked after they must be purchased with great reserve. Given proper treatment, however, they are most satis factory on accofint of their durability. Enamelled pans are constantly growing in favor, but to be of real service they must be of the best quality, otherwise they stain easily and crack even more easily. rthenware fireproof utensils, eof various sizes, steadily gain favor nowadays. When new they should be filled with ccld water and placed on a slow fire gradually increasing the heat. Be ing glazed, they are readily kept clean. Like most utensils, except iron ones, they should never be left on the stove or in the oven empty. Eggs and vegetables ar: especially good when cocked in these dishes, particularly vegetables, as the color of green things is retained in a remarkable way. Moreover, vegetables may be with safety left stand ing in earthenware pans.

Fine wire sieves for straining sauces, purées and similar compounds should be cleansed with a good stiff brush and without soap. A little fine sand, or some of the favorite cleansers, is often a help. The sieves should be dried quickly and thoroughly. Ending her introductory talk, the speaker said: ‘Remember two things—k-ep the bottoms of all your pots and pans as immaenlately clean as the inside. Nothing preves the good housekeeper more than this. And, second, make a thorough over hauling of the kitchen utensils at least once a vear—every six months is better, then discard those which are beyond their usefuln~ss and replenish as you need, for ready utensils go a long way tow ard an effective kitchen regime.” Popular notions are mostly wrong, and the popu lar notions of the business woman are mostly wrong according to an article in the October “Broadway Magazine.” For instance, there is that superstition about her being neat. She is supposed to bring a sense of order into the savage jungle of office life, but it is not so certain that she possesses a sense of order. There is the damaging evidence of her bureau drawer, and there is the “divine disorder” she brings into male existence. But if she is not any more orderly than men, she is at least more patient, according to this authority. This, com bined with her cheapness, makes her valuable for many positions, the telephone exchange desk or the complaint window. Execuilve ability is said to be about as scarce in women as it is in men, and when it is found the chances are about one in three that the possessor will be a widow or a di vorcee. The impression that women cannot Keep secrets is giving way before the army of women stenographsrs employed in confidential positions, it would seem. “When anybody wants to buy any thing of that sort,” says the writer. “it is best to go to a man. The memorable Where do I stand? letter of Mr. Harriman was secured from a male stenographer.” A scientific journal states that anger shortens life. Every time a person gives way to wrath he or she has advanced one step nearer the grave. The physiological reasons are set forth, but the substance is that great anger is highly injurious to the system.

At the same time, a reasonable amount of anger is at once a tonic and a safety valve. It braces up the mind and body; it lets off the superfluous steam, or emotion. Unfortunately, the scientific journal does not state what is “a reasonable amount” of anger. Perhaps it depends on the constitution of the individual. Perhaps the physician of the future will be able to tell one how much anger to take for one's health. The Daughters of.

PHILADELPHIA PIES. A Housewife’s Recipes for Delicious Crusts and Fillings. i Here are some recipes from the budget of a New York woman who is famous among her friends for her pastry. They are really Philadelphia recipes, for she was born and bred near that city and brought her cooking lore from there. Her piecrust is always a success, it is deliciously tender, and it never disagrees with the eater. The following rule will make double crusts for flve large ples: RICH PIECRUST. Take eight large cooking spoonfuls of flour, five cooking spoonfuls of good leaf lard and a generous half teaspoonful of sait. Mix thoroughly with the hands, first cooling the hands with cold water and then wiping them very dry. After the ingre dients are well blended add a little cold water to bind them together—a very little will do. Roll the crust out on a well floured board, handling as little as possible. This housewife doesn’t believe in butter for pie crust. She says she has never been able to make tender crust with butter. GREEN TOMATO PIE. Her green tomato pies are considered a novelty by some New Yorkers. They have just a sug gestion of tartnesg that is very appetizing. Hers is the way the preserves for the pies are made: Take fifteen pounds of nice round green tomatoes, cut out the cores and all blemishes, then slice very thin. To this amount of tomatoes take nine pounds of granulated sugar, one-quarter of a pound of green ginger, washed, peeled and cut very fine, and four lemons, washed and cut In very slices. All the seeds must be taken out one lemons. Put this mixture over the fire with water and cook thirty minutes, or until toes are clear. Take care they do not them up in tightly sealed glass cans until Preserves made after this rule, but with tomatoes substituted for green ones, are for table use. If the red tomatoes are used skins must be removed by scalding, for as toes ripen the skins grow tough. RAISIN PIE. If the mincemeat has given out unexpectedly the family cry for something of the kind, pie makes a satisfactory dessert and can be pared in a very little while. The ingredients for the filling are: One lemon, one egg, one cup of su gar, cne tablespoonful of flour, one-half cup of seeded raisins. Cover the raisins with one cup of cold water and let them soak two hours. Beat the egg until light, add the sugar and beat again; then the julce and grated rind of the lemon, and then the flour. Last, stir in the raisins and the water in which they have been soaking, and cook the mixture in a double beiler until it thickens. This makes filling for ene pie. Bake between two crusts. it 0: i i PINEAPPLE PIE. To make two pies grate one medium sized pine apple.
