HARMONY IN 10WA THOUGHT UNLIKELY Leaders Fear Proposed Cau cus Will Provoke Only Greater Enmity. CUMMINS IN LEAD FOR SENATE SEAT Republicans, It Is Said, Would Pre fer Seeing Democrat Elected Than to Unite Factions. Jowa Republicans have called a great *harmony caucus,” #0 be held at Des Moines August 25. It will be a remark able gathering, almost without parallel in the politics of the country. Its pur pose will be to get the party leaders to gethor and seek a way out of the com plication. which threatens the Repub lican contre! of the State Legislature gnd State ticket in the coming election, and which menaces even the electoral gicket. mrm—— Present indlcations are that ins ead of producing harmony the conference more likely will widen the breach between the two factions. Doth in and out of the State great concern is felt among party Jeaders about the results of the gath ering. Briefly, the lowa situation may be stated thus: The Republican primary in June named Allison for Senator over Cummins, by a close vote. All coacede that against any other than Allison, Cummins would have won. Allison died two months after he was nominated. Consequently, the instructions which the primary had given to Republican legislators to vote for Allison were nul lified. Unless soine other nominee Is named by the party, the icgislators will be free to support whom they choose. Cummins is a candidate. There will be several others.

Will Knife Opponents. The Cummins partisans all over the State are ready to knife anti-Cummins legislative candidates, and the antiCum mins people propose to defeat Cummins candidates. Either side seems fully will ing to let the Democrats have the Sen ator, rather than to allow the victory to go to the opposing Republican fac tion. ha 3

With Allison gone there is a vacancy. Governor Cummins has the power to ap point for the remainder of the Allison term, or until the Legislature—which meets in January—shall elect. Whether he will do this, or call the Legislature in special session to elect, or allow tne vacancy to continue ad interim, has not been decided.

Some of Cummins’ friends want him to resign as governor, and at once be appointed Senator by his successor, the present Lieutenant Gavernor Garst, who is a strong Cummins supporter. Others want him to leave the vacancy. Others urge that he call the Legislature to

elect. Still others insist that he call the legislature together and get it to adopt an amendment to the present primary law, under which provision shall be made for a second primary when a vacancy occurs, as :n the pres ent case. Then they wculd have the legislature elect to fill the present va cancy, and adjourn. The governor could announce his candidacy for the nomination at the second primary, and there is considered little doubt that he would be named.

Plan is Opposed. But the anti-Cummins element op poses <1his idea. It urges that the ex pense of a second primary shcuid not be saddled on the State. More than this, and much more forcibly, it urges that if a primary be held the nominee of that primary, whether he be of one faction or the other, will be knifed at the polls by his ancient enemies of the other crowd. The Legislature will go Democratic, and Claude R. Porter, swhom the Democrals have nominated to receive their support for Senator, will get the seat vacated by Allison.

The situation is a complex and diffi gult one. As a possible way out of it, th2 big harmony conference has been called. All the Republican members of the Legislature, nominees for the next Legislature, State officers and noniinees for State offices, editors of Republican newspapers and various classes of party leaders, have been invited to attend. They will all accept. Chairman C. F. Franke, of the State central committee, will preside. Against the Caucus. There have been many protests against holding the conference, on the ground that “it surely would do more harm than good. It will have none of the authority of a State convention; ft can only advise, not bind anybody. It ie insisted that the factions will gat to gether and have a good, hard fight, (Continued on Second Page.) WEATHER REPORT.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-—Battling des perately in the light of a sputtering fuse, which was to have fired a charge to blow a Newark, N. J., jeweler's safe to splinters, two of the most desperate and accomplished safe-blowers in the country were captured red-handed to day. George “Humpty” Williams, a noto rious burglar, and his pal, Richard Vaughan, were the men captured in Newark, and their lookout, Martin Tif fany, who fled when the detectives showed themselves, was later caught in his room in Hoboken, in possession of a full kit of burglar tools. Robberies by safe-blowing of the Dia mond Point Pen Company, the IveJohn son Sporting Goods Company, Dunn Co., manufacturers of medals, and Child’s restaurant in New York in the past few months, had yielded thousands of dollars in gold, gems, and cash to the geng, and had puzzled the police. i

A few nights ago the gang tried to en ter the Arnold Ward office building in Newark, but was scared away. Early to day, however, the men returned, and, while eight detectives disguised aa tramps lounged on the benches of a park opposite, Willlan.s and Vaughan entered the building to blow the safe of the jewelry store of J. Wels Sons, while Tiffany stayed on the outside.

The prisoners admitted responsibility for this “job,” but, though they denied it, the police say they also blew open a safe in the office of the IMamond Point Pen Company, in Beekman street, several weeks ago, making a rich haul

1 The men were captured as they were leaving the Aaron Ward Bullding at West Park ahd Broad streets. A kit of burglar tools, including drills, nitro glycerin, jimmies, and faise keys was found on them.

It is charged that the men had just looted the office of a dentist in the Aaron building. Whun they were taken to police headquarters they denied this charge, but besides the Dunn robbery

they admitted blowing several safes in Newark

The Secretary holds that Rossell and Weaver, because of their age and long er experience at the academy, were more guilty than the others, He also holds that actual “hazing,” acording to dictionary definition, did not occur, and that in the absence of a Con gressional definition of the term in the act which requires dismissal as pun ishment therefor, the young men were not guilty technically of anything but violation of regulations. OI REAKED COLUMNS ALARM TREASURY Placing of Monoliths Halted, Pending a Rigid In vestigation. Narrow streaks of discoloration, run ning diagonally in the great granite monolith which has been set in place on the east side of the Treasury Building, have been discovered. This also is the case with the other column delivered, as well as the nine which are at the quarry at Milford, N. H., ready for shipment.

Supervising Architect James K. Tay lor, who held up the work of putting in the monoliths tw: weeks ago, has sent an inspector connected with his office to Milford to make an examination of the nine monoliths there to determine whether the disccloratons are of such a character as wud weaken the strength or enduramnwe ~f the columns.

The columpr yaich is In place and the ane lying in Mitcenth street ready to be hoisted into pos fon have beer test. ed Ly irspectors, says tae supervising architect, and although the discolora tions are visible from the farther side of Fifteenth street, they are not of such a character as would mar their beauty nor have any appieciable effect upon thelr strength. j

The monoliths are being quarried by the Webb Granite Company, of Wor cester, Mass., which has several quar ries in New Hampshire, the largest at Milford. Two weeks ago when the great cclumn was hoisted into position in tie colonnade, one of the inspectors for the Government noticed a peculiar light streak in the ite and reported it, Whereupon Work was stopped immedi

Since that time the work on the gran ite facings behind the colunins has gone on, but not a tap has been done on the mounoliths. There are no defects in the large granite slabs used in the facings.

i

The officials of the granite company explain that because of the great size of the pieces of granite it is next to impossible to make them perfect. The streaks in the monoliths, they say, do not detract from the beauty of the columns and do not weaken their strength.

Supervising Architect Teyor stated ic day that if the reports from the in spector at he quarry are as favorable as the Fegonz on the two huge columns now at Treasury Building, he wiil accept the columns and allcw the work of putting them in piace to proceed.

We belleve that a revenue tariff, approached gradually, according to the plan laid down in our piatform, will equalize the burdens of taxation, and that the administration of an ircome tax will make taxation still more equal. Argument Abandoned. “It will be noticed that the Republican yarty has sbapdoned the eariier argu ments advanced in support of a high tarifi. We hear no more of the ‘infant industries’ that must be tenderly cared for ‘until they can stand upon their feet:' there is no suggestion that the ‘forasigner pay the tariff,’ and nothing gbout the ‘home market.” These catch phrases have had thelr day—tney are worn out and cast aside. The Repub licanr leaders are no longer arrogant and imsolent; they cannot longer defy tariff reform. Their plan now is to seem to yield without really yielding. bd a

+1 submit that the Democratic plat form accurately described the Repub lican position when it refers to ‘the be lated promise’ made by the Republican leaders as ‘a tardy recognition of the righteousness of the Demgcratic posi tion on this question.” The Democratic party, in its platforms and through Its representatives in Congress, has for years pointed out that the tariff sched illes are excessively high and oagnt to be reduced, but the Republicans have, until recently, refused to admit that there was any necessity for reduction. They now confess, through their plat form and througn their Presidential candidate, that the need for revision is 80 great as to justify the party in de claring ‘unequivocally for a revision of the tariff,” and the need is so urgent that the work is to be undertaken at ‘a special session of Copgress Immediately following the inauguration of the next President.’ 1 i

Plan for Relief.

“There is no prospect of relief from a Republican President and Congress. The Democratic party, if intrusted with pow er, can and will reduce the cariff,

“The Democratic platform not only de mands a reduction of the tariff, but it plainly outlines the course to be pur sved in securing the reduction. It be gins by proposing that articles which come into competition with articies con trolled by a trust be placed on the free list, V hat better place to begin? Years ago, Mr, Havemeyer, the head of the Bugar Trust, said that the tariff was the mother of trusts—and her children are many. Secretary Taft, in his notifi cation speech, says that an excessive tagff serves no useful purpose, but of fers a temptation to those who would monopolize the production and the sale of such articles in this country, to profit by the excessive rate.

“Now suppose the manufacturers, who have been favored by legislation, do conspire against the public and enter into a monopoly. What penalty do the Republicans suggest? None whatever. These men are to be consulted about proposed changes, and if the next Re publican tariff is made llke former Re publican tariffs, nothing wiil be done without the unanimous consent of the beneficiaries. “What would be the effect of the rem edy Profosed by the Democratic plat form? imply this: A law gees into ef fect at some fixed date in the future, and if the Democrats pass a law put ting upon the free list articles comin into competition with those controll by a trust, the trust will bave until that date to dissolve. If the frust con siders the law too drastic 't can avoid it by giving up its monopely,

Contradicts Taft. “Secretary Taft calls this remedy ‘ut terly destructive,” and in his anxiety to prevent it overlooks the faot that the Democratic party has other remedies for the trusts If we can succeed in dis solving existing trusts and in preventing the organization of new ones, there will be no trusts against which to use the remedy of which he complains. There is now a law against’ trusts, but it has not been sufficiently enforced tc prevent trusts. The Democrats demand

its enforcement; if its enforcement rids the country of (rusts, then this policy which Mr. Taft so much fears wil be come perfectly harmless. If the [ewo crats secure control or both ri.e Fouse and the Senate, they are pledged tc legislation which will make a private monopoly impossible. If the Republicans retain control of part of the Legislative machinery of the Government and refuse to join in the effort to make a private monopoly impossible, they are not in position to complain of tariff legislatior aimed at trusts. If they refuse to as sist us in exterminating the principle of private monopoly they cannot wel object to legislation necessary to pro tect the people from trust extortion. Dodged Real Issues.

“Mr. Taft did not refer to the plat. form demand that wood pulp, print paper, lumber, timber ,and iGg's be plac. ed upon the free list. Why? Because the President vainly besought Congres: to enact a law embodying part of thi demand. It is absurd to complain o the exhaustion of our forests while wi encourage their destruction by a tarif on the products of foreign forests. Bu such legislation becomes not only folly, but a crime, when it {s remember ed that g handful of men monopoliz the benefits flowing from the tariff or these things, while the whole countr; bears the burden of the tax. a “Surely no one will object to a re duction being made upon articles whic] come into competition with Ameri manufactures which are sold a a more cheaply than at home. The Ameri can manufacturer who sends his good to foreign lands and there, without an protection whatever, competes success fully with the manufacturers of al the world, does not need a high tarif to meet competition in the home mar ket. And there are enough article sold abroad at a low price to assur a large advantage to the American con sumers through the crrying out of thi Taft, however, finds the great M HOOSIER RENAMED FOR CONGRESS ry oA ale id by a mR CLARENCE GILHAMS, Member of Congress From the Twelfth Indiana District, Nominated at Auburn. est alarm in the following clause in our platform:

‘Gradual reduction should be made in such other schedules as may be necessary to restore the tariff to a rev enue basis.’ “He regards this threatened departure trom the protective system as fatal. We are brought face to face with the theo retical difference between the positions of the two ties on the subject of tariff. The mocratic party regards a tariff law as a revenue law, the pro tection it gives being Incidental; the Republican party regards a tariff law as framed primarily for protection, the revenue being incidental. As the effect of a given rate on a particu'ar article {fs the same, whether levied for the purpose of revenue or for the purpose of protection, it may be well to define the difference between a revenue tariff and a protective tariff. “A revenue tariff is so framed as to collect a revenue and you stop when you get enough; a protective tariff may be so framed as to collect but little revenue, and yet lay a heavy burden upon the people—and you never know when to stop. To illustrate: A tariff may be made so righ as to absolutely prohibit importation. If, in such a case, the manufacturers yield to the tempta tion mentioned by Mr. Taft and com bine to take advantage of the duty, the consumers will be heavily taxed, and yet none of the money will reach the Treasury. Points Out Case. “Let us suppose another case: If we import one-tenth of a certain kind of merchandise and produce at home nine tenths and the imported and domestic articles sell at the same price, then the Treasury receives duty on the foreign article and th manufacturers collect nine times as r:uch on the domestic ar ticle as the Treasury collects on the one-tenth imported. It becomes a mat ter of great importance, therefore, to the people at large, whether the tarift is intended to raise a revenue or Is framed in the interest of the manufac turers and for the purpose of protec tion. No one would think of employing in a city, a county, or a State, a tax system under which the bulk of the tax would go to the collectors, and yet the Republican leaders demand the continu. ance of a system under which the pro tected interests recasive far more thar half the money collected from the peo: ple through the operation of a high

Where a com munity has attempted to collect taxes for the rid of an industry, even when the industry was to be located in the community, the highest court in the land has declared such a tax to be lar ceny in the form of law. If a city government cannot rightfully tax all the people to bring an industry into the city, where such benefits as are confer red are more easily seen and more universally enjoyed, who will say that a farmer in the Missouri valley can be rightfully taxed to support an Industry in a distant State? Says It’s Unfair.

“As a matter of public policy, is it wise thet the industries that do pay should be compelled to carry upon their backs industries which, according to the arguments made by their representa tives, could not live withoat aid?

HARMONY IN IOWA THOUGHT UNLIKELY (Continued from First Page.) fvonuinuea rom rirst rage.) which will do no good, but make new enmities and animosities.

There will have to be a vote and nom inces for the Legislature will have to declare themselves on one side or the other. If they do, they will be marked for slaughter by the crowd opposed to the position they take. i The, anti-Cummins people seem to want the whole fight dropped till the Legislature is elected. They are beg ging that everybody join to elect the Legislature, and then fight out the Sen atorial matter in that y. But the Cummins people have no confidence in the sincerity of their enemies, They are positive that the Cummins Legislative candidates would be knifed ‘at the polls, in the effort to assure that the anti<Cummins e¢rowd should control the Republican caucus. In such event, they say, the Cummins people would pay it tit for tat, and defeat the anti-Cummins candidates. The Dem ocerats would stand to t in between ‘the fighting factions and win. A People’s Fight. This Iowa fight is peculiar, in that it 1s a people’s fight. Everybody in the State is on one side or the other, and they are all bitter. They have been fighting over Cummins and Cumminsism for ten years, and either crowd would rather see ihe State go Democratic than be def-ated in the local contest. Pressure from the national party has been suggested; but instantly Represent atives H:opburn and Hull, leaders of the anti-Cuninmins faction, served notice on Candidate Taft that if he undertook to influence ie Iowa situation he would be in danger of being punished by the anti-Cummins crowd, and losing the electoral vote, Hitchcock has looked into the mat ter, and held conferences with State Chairman Franke, Senator Dolliver, and others; but he has thus far been afraid to mix in it. The whole thing is mani festly ful: of danger. A big factional fight is on in New York over Hughes. But it isn't like the Iowa fight. It is a struggle of leaders; the masses are not concerned with it, as in Iowa. They haven't much to do with it, except to Bo along as the lead ers finally decide the ine shall go. No Real Bosses. In Iowa it is different. There are no real bosses there, as in the big Eastern States. The people do their own vot ing, and they have gained a dangerous measure of independence about it. Ev erybody who votes is a boss—he bosses his own vote, and doesn’t allow any in terference with the casting of it. That is why the situation, with the intense bitterness that has developed, is so se ous. Amendment to the primary law, so that a new primary can be held, seems the most likely solution. In that event Cummins will be nominated for Sena tor by the primary, with a good ma jority. After that tiie authorities of the national party will be at liberty to step in; Mr, Roosevelt and Mr. Taft can make appeals to the Republicans of the State to act together and not throw away a Senatorship and endanger the ejeione) ote. W nt ere a nomination, however, they will not step in, because it is the of the national party not to in

TYPOTHETA FAVORS TAKING UNIONISTS New York Branch Favors More Liberal View of “Open Shop!” Ideas. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—Presidacut Rob~ ert Schslkenback and Secretary Charles W. Smith, of the New York Typothetas, issued a circular yesterday in reference to the r#cgosed policy of the United Typothetae of America, which was agreed cn at the monthly meeting of the New York Typothetae, and will be sub mitted at the naticnzl convention of the typothetae when it meets in September. This plan embodies a more liberal con struction of the open-shop ideas. This matter is as the most impor tant subject in it® bearing on the future policy of the organization which will come before the convention. ‘The circular says: “We believe that the United Typo thetae of America should remain an as sociation broad enough in its policy to include all printers, whatever their opin fons concerning the expediency or inex pediency of employing union laber or making union contracts. “The United Typothetae of America must always obligate itself and its money to the support and defense of its members who believe in and operate open shops. That attitude must nevel be laid aside, Yet, without forsaking this purpose, it is possible for us fc operate our association on a basis broac enough to include all master printer: who are awake to the value and impor. tance of thorough organization.” The Chicago plan interprets the oper shop in its most liberal sense, and pro vides that the members who have stric! open shops, and do not recognize the union, shall be the only active members Those who recognize and make agree ments with the union, according to thi: plan, are to*be known as ‘sustaining members,” and will have no vite ir shaping the labor policy of the organi gation.

PR It had been expected that the Rose Club's picnic, with Mr. Kern as the leading attraction, would be attended by 25,000 persons. The Rose Democrats, hewever, resented the aprarent indif ference of the anti-Rose men, ar the anti-Rose Democrats naturally were not particularly anxious to have the Rose

The result was that Mr. Kern spoke to an audience of 25, and now the Rose and anti-Democrats are loud in denunciation of each other for allowing the Vice Presidential candidate to re ceive such a frost in a State that the nation’s Pemocracy counts as doubtful. os Jongg BF, BETTER CONDITIONS SHOWN BY REPORTS ___— Statement Prepared by Acting Comptroller Kane Shows Im provement Over Courtry.

PRETTY GIRL SINGS TO HELP OLD BEGGAR Jersey Maid Goes to Assistance of Unsuccessful Seeker for a a a a A NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—As a result of ther disregard for conventions by singing in the street to aid an aged crippled veteran secking alms, Miss ChLarlotte Cole, of Jersey City, is today being complimented by her friends. Miss Cole stood in the doorway of her father's florist shop, and she saw the aged man, wearing a faded Grand Army uniform, supported on crutches as he played a battered violin, in need of tuning. When she questioned him the veteran told her he had not secured a penny all day, and was disheartened. He said t':at the only tunes he could play were old time ballads, which no one wanted to listen to. “You play ‘T'll Give a Penny for Your Thoughts,” said Miss Cole, “and we'li gce if the people don’t remember that there is such a thing as charity.” The aged man played the introdue tory bars, and Miss Cole, in a high snnrano, sang the song.

German Doctor: To one thing, my dear Doctor, just to their temperance. ‘American: But Doctor, we think of your people as heavy drinkers.

German: Ah, but the drink is beer. While other nationalities have their wines, whiskies and vodka: con taining large percentages of alcohol and very little food value, we _stick to our beer with: its nourishing barley and tonical hops and only 314% alcohol. American: You say only 314% alcohol as though that ingredient were not beneficial. German: 1 do not mean it in that sense. We find alcohol has a food and stimulating value when the pro portion is not too great. The danger is in overstimulation, impossible when the percentage is sc small as in beer. American: Perhaps the superiority of your people may be due fo the superiority of your beers. German: Don’t mistake there. We are strong admirers of your Schlitz Beer. It evidences the care used in its brewing. Its full rich flavor brings to you the taste of the barley and the hops, so often lost in the different processes. It has the sparkle and life, too, due to a perfect yeast. The freedom from germs shows. careful sterilization. The fact that it does not cause biliousness proves its perfect iagering or aging as you say. American: That is splendid, Doctor. I have been using Schlitz Beer in my practice, prescribing it where my patients needed an easily digested food which has some tonic value. Especially beneficial, I have founc it, after surgical operations’ where the stomach refused to retain other food. Also in cases where the patient was not inclined to drink enough to flush the system of its waste.

JAL CCNDITIONS “SCORED BY JUSTICE 4 Building Adapted to Needs of a Century Ago, De clares Gould. The crowded and unsanitary condi tions at the jail were never mor? thoroughly scored than by Justice Ash ley M. Gould, of the Supreme bench of the District. It is recalled, that at a meeting of the Brightwood Citizens’ Association last winter Justice Gould was called upon for a speech. Passing over, with slight references, the sub ject of inadequate street car service on some lines, Justice Gould iaunched im meditely into a description of the con ditions in what he termed the most horrible jail in the United Stat.s, tak ing into consideration the slze of the eity. “In other cities,” said the justice in substance, “prisoners would no be sent to any such place. In Baltimore, for {rstance, the courts would simply re fuse to send any man to a place So overcrowded and so reeking in foul odors as the jail which is used by the Capital of this great nation. Here the courts have to send unfortunate crimi nals there because we have nowhere else to place them. Jail Antiquated. “The jail which is doing service for this great city today is adapted to the needs of a century ago. For ar 2ntire century almost there has been no change. 1 want to tell you that the stench which ascends hecavemward at times from the corridors of that place, on account of the lack of proper sanita tion, is indescribable. It is sickening. When the institution is filled, prisoners have to be crowded together almost like animals, they have little facilities for eating, little light, and 1aadequate fa cilities all round. It is a shame that Congress does not relieve the conditions. Plsewhere they would not he tolerated by any State or city. It is through no fault of the warden, for the officials do the best they can with the facilities at hand. This is not much when you con sider that the building was constructed for the needs of a hundred years ago, and Congress has lost sight of the growth of the District since that time.” Caused Much Comment. Justice Gould's impromtu, but impas sioned, speech before the citizens’ as sociation was widely commented upon at the time.

Some of the details of the conditions at the jail, as told by Judge Gould, were almost unbelievable, and were in part unprintable. His hearers forgo t for tae moment their grievance against the street car lines, which is generally a sore point with Brightwood residents, and sat aghast, as Justic Gould unfold ed, bit by bit, the inner side to the prison life in the antiquated jail of the Capital of the United States. NAMES SAWTELLE AS HIS ASSISTANT Health Officer Recommends Ap pointment of Dr. Sawtelle as Deputy Health Officer. Acting Health Officer HA C. McLean today recommended to the Commission ers the appointment of Dr. Henry F. Sawtelle, of 3001 Eleventh street north west, a medical examiner in the Pen sion office, as deputy health officer and chief inspector of the health depart ment, to succeed Dr. Murray Galt Mot ter, who has resigned to enter the Ma~ rine Hospital Service. Dr. Sawtelle is thirty years old and was born in Norfolk, Va. He was edu cated mm the Highland Military Schocl of Worcester, Mass,, from which institu tion he was graduated in 1885. Later he entered the medical school of the Uni versity of Illinois, and after his gradu ation in 1902 removed to Washington. He ‘was appointed to his present po sition in 1904.

WARSAW, Ind, Aug. 22.—All speed records of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago division of the Pennsylva nia railroad were broken yesterday. A special train carrying Prof. I". E. Tur neaure, dean of the engineering depart ment of the University of Wisconsin; ¥rof. C. E. Crandall, of the raflway en gineering department of Cornell Uni versity, and F. M. Graham, the Penn s8ylvania chemist at Altoona, made a test run from Pierceton to Warsaw, a distance of nine miles. The speed was in excess of 100 miles an hour. The object was to determine the im pact of trains with the rails while run ning at different speeds. The train making the record was comnosed of a locomotive, a coach, and a se. The train, In another test, ran ninety-two miles an hour and stopped within 700 feet from where the engineer shut off Steam. ARREST AGED MAN AT PRISON DOOR William McPherson, seventy-six years of age, wanted in this cty for passing an alleged worthless check for $200, and who has been serving a three-vear sentence in a Massachusetts peniten tary on a charge of forgery, will prob ably be brought to Washington this afternoon. McPhersin appeared at the office of Samuel C. Raub, dealer in glassware and bottles, of 318 Eighth street north west, about three years ago, and rep resented that a consignment bottles had been shipped to him. Ra: bp agreed to purchase the consignment, and cash ed a check for $200, which McPherson presented. A few days later, he was arrested in Boston on a similar charge. McPherson was convicted and sen tenced to three years. As he was leav ing the Charles street jail, Boston, yes terday, Detective Parham placed him under arrest. LABOR GETS ITS SHARE. The Peansylvania railroad’s annual re port shows that the total earnings of the lines east of Pittsburg for ex ceeded those of 1906 by $20,000,000. Of this amount $13,000,000 wen: to a larger pay roll. Of the $10,000,000 increase on the Western lines, $6,500,000 went to em loyes. In other words, $19,500,000 of the 000,000 increase in earnin went ‘o an increased pay roll, In the Penr sylvania paid the largest dividend in its history—$22 002,392. Yet that large sum is but $500,000 more than the Increase in wages paid t¢ railroad em ployes last year,

Big Parties Feel Lack of Funds Papers Must Spread News Campaign Material Must Look like News or Editors Will Refuse It—How Franks Help Out. In the absence of campaign funds the managers for both political parties are ‘planning to make the newspapers do their work for them, To an extent never before known, the press agent will be the real campaigner this year. The press agent costs less

an the campaign orator, and gets a vastly bigger audience. Moreover, there is general belief that he is rather a more effective agency for this campaign, There is grave doubt whether the peo ple care to go to political meetings; there is no doubt whatever that they are reading more about public affairs than ever before. Ho wv potent the newspapers have be come in public affairs since the cam paign of 1886, may be judged from the Statement that newspaper circulations in this country have more than doubled in that period, while magazine circula tions have had an even greater increase. With that, the amount of matter print. ed by newspapers or magazines 1s vagtly greater than it used to be, Rural free delivery and other conditions have brought the increased circulation; type setting machines and business prosper ity have made it possible to mage bigger and better papers. Altogether, the press reaches the public as it never did Dbe fore. No Fees, if it is News. The newspapers don't require fees for giving political matter to the public, provided it looks like news. Mr. Bryan worked long and hard in the effort to cut his acceptance speech to such short compass that all the papers would be able to reproduce it complete. He got excellent returns for the effort, Mr. Taft's speech, try as he would, was too long for a vast number of papers, and had to be subjecfed to the unsatisfac tory process of editorial blue-pencilings

It ots an immense amount of money to get literature to the people by pro cess ¢f making and mailing documents, and when they are thus sent out, they don’t get so good attention as if printad in the rewspapers. The newspaper, In short, is the !deal medium; how to make “our stuff” look like “‘news;” how to induce the coid-hearted editor to “use the stuff,” is the problem of this campaign. If the newspapers will t provide the campaign documents, the campaign treasurers will not have to dig up the money te pay for printing and posiage.

Get Trained Assistants.

So the national commitiees are call ing into service a great numbers of trained and experienced newspapermen. The head of the PEepublican literary bureau is a newspaperman, and he Is surrounded by a corps .of the craft, Henry Watterson has been placed in general charge of the work for the Democrats. The chairman of the Dem ocratic national committee iS a news paper publisher, while the executive corps of the Republican committee is composed of working newspapermen to such an extent that it has become some thing akin to a joke. It is pointed cut, in this connection, that Mr. Bryan is an editor and publisher, and spent some years as an employed editorial writer, while Mr. Taft began life as a reporter on a Cincinnati aaily. Hon ors are just about even as between the two parties in their willingness to shunt the burdens of their publicity work off on the newspapers. 4 1

Campaign literature will be prepared in manifold copies, on the mimeograph and in cll sorts of ways. The speeches of distinguished men will be carefully prepared in advance, and sent out to the press for release when they are delivered. This will cause an unusual demand for the really “big men” on

FREEMAN TO MARRY MISS LULU GILBERT ee Washington First Baseman Wins One of Capital's Prettiest Girls. “Jerry” Freeman, the Washington American League baseball club's popu lar first baseman, will be married Mon day evening to Miss Lulu H. Gilbert, of Twelfth and I streets northwest. Freeman's original home was in Or land, California, in the Sacramento val ley, but of recent years he has spent the winter in Oakland, Cal. He began his career as a baseball player on the Pacific coast, but in 1905 went to Min neapolis, whence he came to Washing ton at the beginning of the present season. He is twenty-nine years old. Freeman has shown a steady improve Hast since he joined the Washington club.

Miss Gilbert was born in Waynesboro, Pa., but her parents, Mr. ang Mrs, Wil liam Gilbert, have long made their home in Gettysburg, Pa., which she calls her home town, She is one of the prettiest girls in Washington, and has a wide circle of friends.

The wedding will take place at the parsonage of Lutheran Place Memorial Church, 1107 Eleventh street northwest, with the Rev. J, G. Butler, pastor, of ficlating. The couple will make their home at the Dewey Hotel, 1330 I. street north west. Freeman said this morning he would not take his honeymoon until] after baseball season, for his game has been getting better all along, as has that of the rest of the team, and he did not want to break up the infield by going away at this time BANK OFFICIALS PRACTICE SHOOTING Boston Financial Institution Has Established Target Range in Basement. BOSTON, Aug. 22—Awed by the crime wave that has swept over Mass achusetts with its accompaniment eof murders, burglaries, holdups, and rob beries, the Shawmut National Bank, one of the largest in Boston, has equipped a shooting gallery in the basement of its building, and every employe of the bank is required to take his turn at target practice for half an hour daily. Automatic guns are furnished every employe from messengers to bank cash fer and the employes are sent off in squads for their practice which is under the supervision of the chief watchman of the bank CIR me te ——_pa the stump, and a corresponding diminu ton in the demand for men of minor caliber,

Will Get Big Circulation Governor Hughes’ address at «he Re publican national *ampaign opening at Youngstown will get an immense circu lation with practically no expense to the national committee. To give the same speech anything like the same circulation, through other channels, would cost an immense amount of money; it has been said that it costs §200,.00 to piace a single piece of litera ture in the hands of all the voters in the country atter the article Is printed and the malling lists are obtained. For 15,000,060 addresses the postage of 1 cent ‘would be $150,000.

3 Because they save this postage ex pense, wnieh is a eruel and imevitable exaction on the campaign treasuries, ‘he speeches of members of Congress are most useful. It does not seem to be generally known, but it is a fact, that the ernment furnishes free postage only on these speeches—that is, when they are “extracts from the Cog pressional Reocord”-—the Government Priuiting Office does not print them free of charge as is widely understood. Not by any means. One speech which was delivered during the last Congress cost its author so much morey for printing coples that half iu year's salary was wiped out before he had f!llad the orders for cop.es of it—and he paid no postage, either: his frank carried the copies through the mail. Tricks to All Trades. But ther® are tricks in all trades. The stories which are told about the cost of getiing speeches printed at the big Gov ernment Printing Office would make the eyes stick out of the heads of some of the statesmen who have paid the bills. These things i.ave recently been re formed, it is sal! by people at the big printery. But rn the old days the statesman who was “in bad” at the establishment was pretty certain to discover that get‘ing 7. speech printed was a most extravagant! affair, There were all kinds of schedules and ratings and computatiens, so that the man with a pull could be favored and the man at the other ehd was ‘‘properly soaked.” And he was, too, according to some of the stories. ~The man who gets his speech printed, anyhow, has to pay for it. This year, it is promised, they will all pay alike; which is a real advance. During the latter weeks of the recent session, an immense amount of talking was done for campaign purposes. Gentlemen pre pared speeches by arrangement with the Congressional committees of their par ties, and delivered them on the floor of the House with an audience of about seven people. in order to talk them into the proceedings and thus acquire the franking privilege. Mr. Sulzer, of New York, put an abrupt stop to the SysS tem «f “extending my remarks in the Record,” declaring that he would per mit no mose unanimous consents for this purpose.

Easy Way to Do It. This was the convenient way of man ufacturing campaiesn literature without This was the convenient way of man ufacturing campaign literature without either making the speech or being com pelled to pay the postage. Mr. Sulzer, incensed against the manner in which the rules were enforced against him one day, declared that there would be no more unanimous consents; and for some time he shut out the campaign speeches ‘by permission” from the Record. But the matter became serious; the Democrats as well as the Republi cans were being badly hit; perhaps it was even more serious to the Demo crats, who needed the franking privi lege for campaign uses.' Anyhow, Mr. Sulror subsided, and the business of talking at the stenographers was re sumed. The results of that talk will be handed to the voters under franks during the campaign, to the extent, probably, of tens of millions of copies. LIEUT. HARTLEY SERIDUSLY ILL Police Officer Will Go Un der Operation Next Week. Lieut. James Hartley, of the Police Department, known to many of his friends as “Big Jim” Hartley, is eriti cally ill, and will be operated on at the Georgetown University Hospital next week. Lieutenant Hartley has been ill for months, and three weeks ago he was confined to his bed. He has a robust constitution, however, and he refused to listen to the doctor's advice to rest quietly at home until he regained his strength.

Fer several months the lieutenant has been suffering from orgaaile trouble, and nis great devotion to duty prevented a cure, according to his doctor. As long as he could work, the lieutenant refused to stay at home. Lieutenant Hartley has a wide circle of friends. Because of his unfailing courtesy and good humor, he always was a favorite. Lieutenant Hartley was formerly ia the regular army, and the discipline he learned there has served him ia good stead since. He was a private for eight years in the First, Second, and Third precincts. In 1808 he was appoint ed a sergeant in the First precinct, and in July, 1906, was made a licutenant. RACED WITH DEATH TO SEE MOTHER NEW YORK, Aug. 22—With only twelve minutes to spare in a race across the ocean to catch a train to take her to the deathbed of her mother in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Mrs. 8. Eylar has reached port in the Hamburg-American liner Deutschland. To permit her to make her train con nections Col. John N., Bishop, deputy surveyor, assigned several customs in spectors to hastily inspect and pass the traveler's baggage, but it was a close call, and when Mr, Eylar reached the Lackawanna depot in Hoboken the gate man was shouting the last call of “all aboard.” Mrs. Eylar, who gave her address as 4 Queen Victoria street, London, in coming up the bay explained to the cus toms otificlals that her mother was dy ing in Santo Fe and that she did not expect to be able to reach her alive un less she caught the 10 o'clock train. She showed to Colonel Bishop a telegram received by wireless aboard the ship saying that the doctors did not expect her mother to live more than three days.

Commissioners in No Hurry to Ap point New Superintendent of Street Cleaning. No decision has been reached by th Conmmissioners with regard to the Sp pointment of a superintendent of street cleaning to succeed John T. Twohey, who has resigned to enter upon the practice of law. Commissioner West said today that jit will be some time before the selection of a successor to Mr. Twohey is decided upon, as the lat ter's resignation does not take effect until September 1. “The position is one which requires firmness and executive ability and I wish to consider well before making any recommendations to the Board of Commissioners,” said Commissioner West. “As Mr. Twohey does not resign until September 1, there is no hurry in making the appointment.” It is probable that the position will be given to one of the officials now in the service of the District rnment.

FATHER'S ACTS BAR ALI FROM HOME em mr Deposed Minister Says Tur key Does Not Disapprove His Own Deeds. That Mehmed Ali Bey, deposed Turk ish minister, who has left Washington for parts uoknown, belicvus that his stewardship has been such that he might safely return to Constantinople were it not for his father, Izzet Pasha, is the statement of a close friend who talked with the minister just before his departure, 4 a VE X a Te

gl 3 Mehmed All was asked why he hesi tated to return to his own country, and if any act of his had displeased the Sultan or the younger Turks,

pr “l dar¢ not return, as much as I would like to, because I am the son of Izzet Pasha,” he said, *l do not know what reception the son of a man who is new charged with all manner of things, would recelve, Therefore, I must re main. sumewhere else for a time, al though 1 myself have done nothing that should anger my countrymen.” fo Mehmed Ali Bey qualified this by say i"g that even his father was not guilty any of the things laid at his door. mie charges of graft and of the illus “rious Izzet Pasha's alleged connection ¢ith ‘the Macedonion massacres were Mecifically denied by Mehmed Ali on ‘mehalf of his father.

Recalls Chekib Bey. TAY In connection with Mehmed Ali's sup #os¢!} financial embarrassment when his flsmissal came, it is recalled that Che ford Hy b Bey, predecessor to the departed inister, was also left high and dry fon the shores of temporary want by

a ren is ruler. The Sultan, it appears, takes a Jertigia delight in having his minis rs to Washington wire frantically for Soney. Mehmed Ali Bey had not signed e pay roll for four months before his wificlal head was chopped off. Natural he was just a little peeved when the bills continued to come in and there was no response from Constantinople. Chekib Bey had also failed to connect with the pay check for some months before Mehmed Ali hove in sight to take his job.

Although not generally known, Che kib Bey remained at the legation for more than three months after Mehmed Ali took charge. Conditions were rather crowded at the legation, too, about that time, but as it is a criminal offense even to hint that your guest's departure would be welcome, &ccording to Tur key’'s social code, Chekib remained on the job until he took a notion to leave.

Figures furnished by the Ordnance Department of tine Navy this morning show the real sigiificance of Charley Street's feat, when he caught a ball dropped from the Washington Monu ment yesterday, and should make that young man hesitate when his eyes are opened to the danger he ran.

i The velocity of a body weighing five ounces and faliing 5M feet would be 135 feet per second. The energy of i base ball failing that distance would be what is technically known as 117 foot-pounds which means that the Washington catcher’'s performance yesterday was equivalent to catching a weight of 117 pounds after falling one foot. These figures are computed by ~xperts engaged daily in calculating the direc tion and effect of projectiles and are ab solutely accurate except for possible variation of a fraction of a foot or a pound dependent upon atmospheric con ditions.

Details as to the cause of death were not given.

Mr. Hornblower was born a ater son, N. J., sixty vears ago, the son of tha Rev. William H. ifornblower and Matilda (Butler) Hornblower, Graduate of Yale.

BREASTS OF LOONS MADE INTO A COAT Fowls Difficult to Kill Used by Labrador Indians to Make a Garment.

Anyone who has tried to shoot a loon and has been chagrined at his failure will be interested in a garment on view in the window of the Sorosis Shoe Company's store, 1213 F street. The garment is made of the breasts of 365 loons by a tribe of Indians in the extreme nothern part of Labrador. Those who know how difficult it is to shoot a loon can appreciate the fact that it took these Indians many years, probably more than a hundred, belore they could collect 365 breasts, and it was handed down from generation to generation,

The owner of the unique garment is a well-known traveler and explorer, and was the first white person who ever visited, or was seen by, the tribe of In dians who made it. On her departure the Indians insisted ‘hat this treasure be accepted as a gift by their white vis itor, who, before i it to the Smithsonian Institution, has loaned it to the shoe manufacturers.

The story of a love tragedy of the plains, showing the blind obedience of ‘an Indian girl to the mandate of her parents, was brought East Ly one of the ten young Oklahoma belies sent out by Governor Haskell to aavertise ‘he ‘State. Five of them were part Indian, ‘and, while in Washington, each one of the party unfolded scrae little story of human interest anent the great West. Five years ago, an Osage girl left the wigwam for a college in the East The parting scene was set before a tent, her stoical old father and motlier, with merely a grunt now and then, watching the Indian maid go forth into the strange world beyond. Looking back ward, she Saw them smoking their pipes, their varicolored blankets in dis array about their shoulders, 8» she lell them. Transformed by East. For four years the village saw noth ing of its belle. She was graduated with honors, and turned homeward. Uu der civilization’s touch she had become transformed. Her skin was whiter, she wore silks and satins, high-heeled shoes and a dainty creation known back East as a hat, Thus she returned to the land of her fathers, to the tepee, the peace-pipe, and the snake dance. She intended to go forth again into the better things beyond. Back East someone was will ing to take an Indian girl for a bride, and this some one was tall and hand some—and white, “You marry big brave, Rain Water,” said the cld Osage soon after his daugh ter arfjved. The mother puffed her pipe and dded assent. The girl ged and cried, as all maidens will when love is throttled by parental firmness, But the Indian knows nothing but filial obedience. Two weeks later she married the full-blood Irdian brave, Her finery, the little odds and ends of dainty feminine apparel dear to the eollege girl's heart, were laid away. She t on the moccasins, the blankets, and the gaudy accessories that delight others of her race.

With the taciturnity of hes kind, she adapted herself again to the small life of the quaint Indian reservation. Her husband was glad; for the Indian mald had saved much of her annuity during her college years. He had spent his for firewater, and the trinke’s of the pale face.

It will be one of the greatest things ever put through by this Government.” This stateinent was made by Repre sentative Tdwin Denby of Detroit, Mich., who has just returned from a three months’ stay in Panar:a, where he went as a member of a special commission to arbitrate land claims against the Government, While in the canal zone, Mr. Denby covered almost every inch of the big ditch, and had an excellent opportunity to stud; conditions and learn from the workers themselves many interesting and important details of the undertak ‘ng.

i Mr. Taft's Appeal to the South. The solidity of the South is about the only political relic we have still with us, of the war between the States. There are social problems, indeed, and most serious; but they are the relics of the institution of slavery, primarily; not of the war. The Democratic South alone recalls the schism of the sivties.

Judge Taft is right when he appeals to the South to end this condition. There is no longer excuse for it. Time was when it was fondly hoped that the glorious response of the Southern States to the call of the Spanish war would ~nd the old sectional feeling; but thus far it has not done so.

There is nothjng in present political and economic issues to justify the so lidarity of the South. The South is not solidly opposed to protection; its mar velous industrial development rather ha: inclined it more and ore to pro tection. It stands with the North for the new moral issues iv affairs; for more effective control of great indus trial forces; for properly adjusted pro tection to American industry; for such division of governmental ourdens be tween the State apd Federal govern ments as will male possible effective administration within the Constitution.

i

i

The South ought not to continue a Democratic Gibraltar. Its own interest demands that it assume different and more liberal attitude. Its economie questions—aside from that of races— are the same as those of the rest of the country.

Certainly the last decade should have assured the South that the North sy ipathizes with it in its race problem. “Certainly it should be convinced that the day is past when there is danger of a Republican Congress imposing “negro domination” on the South by process of force buls or legislation to reduce Sou.aern representation. True, in the last session of Congress idiotic counsels prevailed with a few partisan bigots, and induced them to lug in this ancient threat; but nothing care of it, and ‘nothing ever will. If this is what the South fears, can it not realize that it would be safer if it were divided be tween the two parties on (ther ques tions, but always ready to present a solid front on this one?

The truth is that the whole country, and the South especially, would recog nize, ten years hence, that the breaking up of the solid South was a great achievement, if it could be accomplished this year. The Democratic party is hamstrung and hopeless ‘so long as it is tied to this issue of ancient prejudice. It is not fit to be trusted vith rule of the country so long as is so narrowly sectional. The party, the country, and particularly the Soutn, would be better for the dissolution of the anachronistic golidarity which keeps alive an un worthy tradition of sectional opposi tion.

PRS YA

Mrs. Gardner and the Duty on Art That is a rather ugly matter of the evasion of the customs laws with which Mrs. “Jack” Gardner, of Boston, is charged. Tt is justi as much smug gling to bring in objects of art with out paying duty on them as it is to bring in diamonds or seal skin coats. But the incident will not je without its good effect if it brings home to every person attracted by the news of the al leged offense an abiding sense of the foolishness of the law which taxes the importation of articles which we ought to be eager to get into the country. i

Every question has two sides, but this one. The American artist, in whose behalf the law is said to have been framed, is dead against it. The revenue derived from it is inconsider able. The great paintings and sculp tures and art objects of all kinds that are kept out of the country as a result of the tax are numerous and valuable; and as the greatest of art works al ways gravitate sooner or later to the public galleries, the loss is to the whole people. Henry Walters, of Baltimore, had to pay duty on the splendid Massa renti collection which he acquired year or two ago in Italy, in spite of the fact that the Walters Gallery is thrown open to the public during sey eral months of each year.

Paul de Longpre, a Western artist, for some time past has been making an appeal to the National Government to further the cause of art in this eountry by the establishment of a *national 3 i school of the fine arts and a national gallery, and he shows that this eountry is singularly indifferent to the fine arts, compared with the nations of E_rope There may be some valid objection to his scheme; there can be none to the removal of the duties referred to and such a chorus of protest on this sub ject should go up as to make that ag tion by the coming Congress inevitable.

Booker Washington's statement that the negro is probably getting along bet ter today in Mississippi than in aay other’State of the Union will surprise only those who are unacqu-inted “with the kindly feeling toward the reputable negro that exists in the South and which, in tne case of mary individuali~ is not inconsistent with a belief in dis franchisement. If a negro wants a little capital, to start in business tor him self, says Washington, he can gat it more easily in the South than in the North. Therein the famous leader of his race not only speaks with knowledge of the South, but he also suggests the most Liopeful line of effort for the eleva tion of his people. Let them enter busi. ness life, let them feel the responsi bility waich the possession of property brings, and a greater improvement in character will ensue than the exercise of the right of suffrage every day in the year would bring about. It is due to his insistence upon this idea thit Booker Washington's work has been so successful and that the graduates of his irstitute have turned out so well. The meeting of the National Negro Business League, now in progress in Baltimore, serves to emphasize the same theory through the “experiences” re lated by practical men uctailing their success in various lines of business. ‘This is the true “door of hope” for the negro and no reasonable white man ‘would like to see it shut. ee o i i i “Shall the people rule?” asked Mr. Bryan, apparently a bit consciencesmit ten, as he thought of the strenuous use he made of the big stick in running the Denver convention. “They do rule,” replies Mr, Taft, with a little extra emphasis, in view of his recollections of steam-roller activities at Chicago. Honors appear about even.

Wall Street would hoost its own game better if it wouldn't make so much noise about its anxiety to bet at long odds on some particular candidate. The people nowadays have a strong dis position to copper all Wall Street bets,

‘Speaker Cannon is 0 make speeches in the doubtful distrits. West of the Alleghanies, the nub. r of doubtful dis tricts will be about the same as the number in which Camon speaks. The Speaker is not a source of strength out in that regicn. “You can't beat somebody with no body,” said Odell, speaking of the Hughes situation in New York. The opposition to Cummins in Jowa is dis covering how true it is. A man has been arrested, charged with getting the better of a gas meter, if he gets a jury trial, and the evidence is sufficiently convincing to show that his scheme will really work, there can be no doubt of acauittal. The argument that primary laws are a failure becavrse Republican Oregon, under a primary, chose a Democratic Senator, will, of course, seem a bit weak with Democrats. Mr. Joseph Medill Patterson is mere ly continuing the joint debate between his pocketbook and his conscience.

NTN NINA SSNS ANSON ANNNINA NNN THE WASHINGTON TIMES, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1908. Gessip of the Book World; The Authors and Publishers _— a With the somewhat worn but always interesting theme of Russian political intriguing as a background, presenting figures of Nihilists, spies, glittering court officials, the “zar himself, Alexan der McArthur has written an unusually absorbing love story—"The Leveller'— which po trays its incidents in a con vineing and entirely novel style. The book is not so merely melodra matic as a summary of its characters would indicate. It deals with harsh conditions and must needs relate with powerful explanatory weapons the harsh facts that form part of the story. For the rest of it, there is romance that pulses with the ardor of youth and en thusiasm—a moving story of the love of a young Russian aristoerat for a beauti ful Hebrew gill. Some of the love scenes are exquisite In delicacy and poetic prose.

The young man (he becomes in time a diplomat high in imperial councils) finds himself with almost insurmounta ble obstacles rising betwen him and his betrothed. Class hatred, prejudice, am bition, family pride, even the Russian secret service, are all against him. He has to do battle with himself finally, and he fights as a strong man should. The girl is a pupil of Rubinstein, who, by virtue of his influence with princes as the most famous composer of his day, succeeds in keeping her from exile to 8i beria when her brother is discovered as a leader in a plot to assassinate the Czar, In moving Rubinstein through the story, Mr. McArthur has ably given some of the incidents a delightful tone of melody and harmony, especially with a dramatic episode in which the com poser influences the Czar to clemency by a wonderful performance of a mas terpiece on the ruler's own piano, Alti.ough there is death to minor char acters in the story, thanks to the Nihi lists, the great leveller in this romance is love, the mighty leveller of preju dices. The quality of the dreamer and fatal'st, so strong in the personality of all Russians, nally asserts itself, and the difference in race is utterly forgot ‘ten. But only after being long tossed ‘about by the storms of pa n—love and hate—does the lover find tlie haven of his heart's desire. In the working out of the plot, the av thor is anything but commonplace. The tale is told in charming vein, for the lighter incidents, and with strong dra matic power where the action properly demands it. The book is published by C. H. Doscher Co., New York.

John Avscough’s “Marotz.” At every week-end the country-bound male asks himself what novel! he shall take wiih iim to seashore or mountain to amuse his kinsfolk and acquaint ances, and ofien, finding no answer ready to hand, is wont to seize upon the first presentably bound volume that comes within his ken, and, stuffing it into kis grip, to unload it, on his arrival, upon the hungry country sheep who look up unsatisfied by such lean literary fare. To prevent such hit-or-miss book buying is the sole and single aim of this informing paragraph, which herewith begs to call atteailisn to John Ays cough’'s *“‘Marotz,”” a story that com mends itself to the world in general on many counts, for it is serious with out dullness, and combines ace and charm with power and a strong and deep human interest. It is a tale of the present day, containing vivid pic tures of southern Italian and Sicilian life. As a woman with a strong ten dency toward mysiicism who is forced by circumstarces to take an active share in everyday life, Marotz is a character of singular interest. “The Realm of Light” Two Chicago business men are per suaded by an old Hungarian to go with him into the heart of Africa on a voy age of discovery, After months of hardship and thrilling adventure, a mountain is reached by the three travelers, and owing to a singular phenomenon in which the surrounding hot sea recedes every seven years, an ‘entrance is found to the interior of the snountain, and by almost superhuman effort, the four men finally reach its summil, Here they find 2 people, who, for thou ‘sands of years, have lived a life freed from every fcrm of self-seéking the ideal life; a race of giants, physically ard intellectually, who in our year one ha. controlled the solar energy and made 1 subservient to their needs; had construciad telescopes so far superior to what are known that they bring the moon and planets within the range of intelligent reception; had worked out the principles of acoustics to such an extent that without a medium, conver sation could be carried on at great dis tances; had, through their mastery of the problems of the storage of power, annihilated space; and had discovered wonderful methods of lighting and of time keeping, through unseen forces, The book abounds in romance; and food for thought and discussion for him who can read between the lines. Al together the work is destined to pro voke discussion and create a large in terest.

Sir Gilbert Parker's boyish taste in books, if it does not indicate the future authorship of novels like “The Weav ers’ and “The Right of Way,” is at least uncommen. “The books of my boyhood which lured me most,'™ writes Sir Gilbert, “were Shakespeare (eight of whose plays I knew by neart), “Da vid Copperfield,” “The Heart of Mid lothia,” Macaulay's ‘History of Eng iand,”’ “Kinglake's “Eothen,” Carlyles “Fren-h Revolution,” and Webster's Dictionary. You will see that it js an oddly incongruous lot, but I browsed in my own way, and if I did rot under stand all of Carlyle, the drama, the vivid picturesqueness of his style, cap tivated me. Webster's Dictionary and Shakespeare were to me the most al luring of all books, but I must add to ‘the list the Apocrypha, which had all the glamour and none of the perils of forbidden fruit.”

Reminiscences of Johnson.

reminiscences 01 JOnnsoi. The September Century will contain the first of William H. Crook's rem iriscences of Andrew Johnson ir the White House, announced some months ago. Mr. Crcok was for many years one of the White House staff and his reminisences of the days of Andrew Johnson's Presidency, written in col laboration with Mrs. Margarita Spald ing Gerry. are marked by a sympathetic approcration of the more engaging qulities of a man who is the ene of cur 1'residents least known and, per haps, 12ast understood.

Sir Hubert Parry's “Johann Sebastian Bach, Composer,” is at once a biograpny and a critical and historical study of the achievements of the great eight eenth-century composer, director, and performer upon the organ and piano. The eminence of Sr Hubert Parry him gelf as a composer and as a writer and student of music needs no comment here. For the last Jecade he has been professor of musi: at Oxford. Consid ering the imvportairce of the man who is the subject and the authority of Sir Hubert Parry as a eritie and writer, no student of music can afford te be a stranger to this thorough and compre hensive work. The book is promised for this autumn by G. P. Putnam's Sons. 1

2 Fiehi +n Opium Industrv. Frederic 2. Isham, author of ‘The L.ady of the Mount,” and other novels, writes from Peking, China, concerning the effort to suppress the opium indus try. The movement has really made marked progress in many large inland places, says the novelist, and the peo ple whose interests aie a the

trade, seem to be unselfishly cooperat ing with the authorities; moreover, opium smoking is now generally looked down upon by high-caste Chinamen, and those who used to indulge publicly in the vice now ‘are prone to practice it in secret. There are other favorable indi cations that the use of the drug is be ing steadily curtailed: but, in giving up his oplum, the Chinaman is slowly but surely acquiring the new vice—whisky dr.nking. Cheap wasky Is Deing im ported and consumed to an extent that causes thoughtful men much concern, The Chinaman works hard; he is not lazy; nis food is barely sufficient to sus tain niin. The drug probably was much indulged in, owing to this fact; as its u is beirgz slowly curtailed, whisky seems to be taking its place—and very bad whisky at that. The problem, in consequence, grows complicated; the white man decries the opium in one breath, and offers to furnish the whisky for the yeilow man in the next. The Bobbsg Merrill Com=anv. “The Big Fellow.” Moffatt, Yard Co. announce the publication, early in September, of a novel by Frederick Palmer, entitled, “The Big Fellow.” This is a big story with a big American for its hero—a new character, simple and magnetic, full of boyish unaffectedness, a i=al hero without even wanting to be one. The story recalls, measurably, the author's other fine American novel, “The Vagabond,” but it is maturer, more: fin ished, better in every way. Mr. Palmer is wholly at home in this kind of story, and this is much the best of its kind. or of any kind, that he has given us. The plot carries us eventually to one of eur’island possessions, where Mr. Palmer is perhaps most at home, as everybody knows, and where our Big Fellow accomplishes some of the Big Things that Americans have been do ing there these recent years. It is a love story of a fine, stirring kind. Mrs. Ward, Settlement Worker. It is well known that Mrs. Humphry Ward, whose influence on the American public has deepened since ‘The Test ing of Diana Mallory” has been writ ten, is an ardent settlement worker, and prominently identified with the pro motion of recreation schools. Only re cently Mrs. Ward was hostess at a settlement garden party in London, where the children of the play sehools entertained her guests, the Society of Women Journalists, of which she is president, with exercises, dances, and songs. “I have seen Mrs. Ward,” said one woman who was present at the fete, “on a platform with the iate M. Auguste Sabatier, joining in a discus sion on religious and philosophica] prob lems. f have heard her lecture on Pierre Loti, and address an audience of learned people on Modernism in Italy. But never has she appeared more charming or more womanly than in the company of the tiny members of her Guilds of Plav.”

Popular Summer Novel. Harrison Rhodes’ vivacious story, “The Adventures of Charles Edward” (Little, Brown Co., publishers), is one of the favorite novels selected by vaca tionists te accompany their summer weeks of ‘eisure. As is well known, Mr. Rhodes took most of the incidents from life, and he has an amusing story of the adventure which resulted in the writ ing of the chapter entitled “Lady An gelica’'s Methods.”

i Mr. Rhodes and a party of friends were at 2 luncheon at a small Normandy seaside place. Arter lunch, as a diver sion, Mr. Rhodes and a friend started the petits chevaux table going, playing eroupiers themselves, just for the benefit of their own party. While they were running the game, various French peo ple strolled in from the neighboring villas, and wanted to play, thinking it a great joke that the Americans, with their foreign accent, should play erou piers. The preprietor came along, and ‘started it on a business basis, and did very well. After the fun was over, he offered Mr. Rhodes and his friend a salary of $30 a month and board, if the would stay on at his hotel as regular croupiers. Overemphasized Thrift.

“From the wasteful rich and the im provident poor we can £xpect little good. It is the grest class between the two which gives the nation, its moral backbone. It is this great class sup plemented by the great number of rich who are not wasteful and by the hon est poor who are merely unfortunate. A great nauy of this greatest class are of New England stock.

FOLLOWS HUSBAND AS JAIL WARDEN Only Official Woman Prison Keeper in World Is a Swiss Widow. There is only one official woman jailer in the world, Her name is Jenny Porchet, and she lives in Switzerland. She is governor and warder of ‘the pris on of Aigle, In the Rhone valley. It came about in this way.

Thirty years ago Mme. Porchet mar ried the chief warder of the prison, and goou phoved to be a heipmeet indeed, for being a strongly-built woman, and with preper notions of discipline, she made as good a jailer as her husband, and more than once did his work when he was ill or away.

5. when he died the authorities asked her to take his place permanently, and she accepted. i All the year round the Aigle prison contains from twelve to twenty male prisoners, sentenced to terms of im prisonment ranging from three months to three years, and although the woman jailer has no assistants, she has never had any trouble with the prisoners—ex cept, Indeed, on one occasion many years ago, when a hurly ruffian at tacked her. Mme. Porchet taught him a lesson in good behavior that confined him in the hospital for several weeks. Strict disciplinarian though she is, the woman jailer has the kindliest of hearts. and takes great interest in her *‘guests,” as she calls them. Many a prisoner has been set on the straight path again by her wise and kindly advice. 3 FASHION MAKERS UNCERTAIN AS TO PROPER STYLES FOR NEXT SEASON It is now demi-seagon, that time of the year when even the great creators of fashion themselves are somewhat uncertain about the styles which will be worn. It is well enough to say that sheath gowns will be worn, or directoire, empire, or princess, but it is quite an other thing to decide which one of the ‘#tyles mentioned will appeal to the Women who must wear them. It is, ot course, safe to say that all these ideas will be carried ou: to an extent—but Which will be the predominating note, which will be the favorite of fickle wo man, it {s hard to tell.

Then, again the directoire style made with short skirt is incorrect, and now .that the French women have adopted the penchant of Americans for the -troitteur, it is impossible with certainty to foretell the absolute popularity of a style which does not look well for street wear. For afternoon calls and for those charming little tea parties at Rumple mejer's and the Columbin, nothing could be more attractive than the long sweeping skirt of modified ‘“‘merveil leuse.’

Cf course this time of year brings out many tentative styles, such as the huge hats of velvet and felt and the ve long coats elaborately trimmed wit braid and buttons. They may take, and they may net. It depends very much upon who first adopts them.

Don't let the mosguties get at your face—if you can el it—and don’t gcratch the bites open if you can't. Don’t lot your face get shiny, when a litte alcohol or powder will prevent it, Don't fail to keep yourself trim and dainty.

Ousalitv Par Fyerellawea Philinnine War Act Sachet Parties a Popular Pastime With Girls at the Summer Resorts These are the days when the girls who are in the country and in the mountains are making up parties to get ingredients for sachets. The fields are full of flowers and leaves that make pungent and aromatic linings for the bureau drawers, the closets, and the trunks.

To gather them cost nothing, and to make them up costs little, Seraps of silk and brocade from tie workbag make the prettiest, and if one has ambi tion to perfume every drawer in the bureau, cotton batting and cheap silk aline will make lzyers to go the full length over or under the gontents of the drawer.

i White clover can usually be gotten in large quantities. It shrivels when it is dry, and therefore, three times the amount one needs to fill a sachet should be picked.

It grows on tall thick stems, and the flowers are at the very top. The: are FOUR HOUSEHOLD APRONS ARE ALMOST NECESSARY Yomen who dn a good part of their own work or, at least, overlook the maid's work, should make four hcuse held aprons. These keep the entire frock clean.

They are made of dull blue, gray, or brown gingham and reach tc the edge of the gown. They are buttoned down the back and have wide, deep sleeves put into deep armholes, then gathered at the wrist to a ene-inech turnover cuff fastened with a pearl button.

They are cut V-shape at the neckg, back and front, and finished with a two-inch flat stitched band. There ars four pockets, the two lower ones larg:r than the upper ones and all big enough to hold the things that are needed in cleaning or dusting or washing. i SASHES FOR YOUNG GIRLS. The growigz girl who adores yards of colored ribbon wound arouna ner waist is having her innings this sum mer, for it is the fashion to wear sashes. The old-fashioned kind won't go that spreads out around the waist six inches deep and is tled into a wide set bow at the back. The new kinds are made of liberty satin ribbon, quite soft, and in all the wonderful shades that have been copied or created for this summer. ay are twisted at the back into two loops with long-pointed ends or finished at the left side with a rosette and two ends. Girls from ten to eighteen years old wear these. Little girls of ten and twelve years old have a preity trick this season of loosely twisting two-inch ribbor until it locks like a stick of peppermint candy, then putting it around the waist and finishing at back with a loose knot and several short ends. i

Two or three times a week spread the accumulated scraps upon a tin plate or in a baking pan, and set in a moderate oven until perfectly dry. Soft or ‘soggy’ bits are good for nothing and interfere with the work. If, by chance or intention, the bread is slightly browned, keep it apart from that which remains white. A glass jar for each kind is a good idea. While the dried hits are still warm, lay upon a kneading board and crush to powder with the rolling pin. Do this thoroughly for the “dust,” leaving no gritty particles. Keep in a closed jar in a dry place. It is mvaluable for breading croquettes, fried fish, chops, etc. Roll the article to he breaded, first in beaten egg, then in the bread dust, to which have been added a little salt and pepper.

One set was in a dark shade of green and the design was carried out in tones of wood brown.

GREAT WEIGHT TRIO REAGH HOME TODAY 0] r McGrath, Flanagan, and Rose Return After Vic torious Tour Abroad. ALL IN READINESS TO COMPETE HERE Curtail Foreign Trip to Attend Re ception Planned for Olym pic Victors. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—Three mora of the world champions who scored at the Olympic games got home today, when the White Star liner Celtic warped into her dock, They were Matt J. Mc @Gyath, John J. Flanagan, and Ralph Rose, tlie greatest weight tossers in the worid. In company they had toured Ireland after the victorious American sweep at london, and were received with great enthusiasm everywhere they appeared in the Emerald Isle, They have hurried home in obedience to cablegrams to take part in the great public reception which is to be tendered to them and the rest of the American team Saturday night at the city hall, following a mammoth parade.

The returning trio are in fine nhysical condition, each said, and added that hey were ready at once 0 compete in any games scheduled in and around New Yecrk. They spoke warmly of the public-spirited action of the people of this city in planning a great reception to the Olympian champions, the heavy expense which is to be met by popular subscriptions,

Rose spoke of his wonderful shotput at Queenstown the day before he sailed. “l easily put the sixteen-pcund shot fifty-one feet six inches from a seven foot circle and without any toe board. Had I had the advantage of a tose board I believe, I would have hurled

the shot fifty-three feet.” Rose said he would stay in New York for a month or two, and compete in the national championships and other games held in the East,

REGATTA COURSE STILL UNSETTLED Board Hunting Scheme to Do Away With Trial Heats at Middle States.

DUTLODK 15 DARK FOR SHEEPSHEAD Directors Fear Repetition of Fiasco at Last Fall's Meeting. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—The {all race meeting at Sheepshead bay may not take place this year.

It has practically been determined, ac cording to report, that the meeting, the feature of which was the Futurity, would pe called off at a meeting of the Coney Island Jockey Club, to be held today. The prevatling sertiment of the directors is, it is understood, opposed to dropping any more money over a meeting at the bay. i In view of the fact that the spring meeting at Sheepshead cost the club $150,000, it is said that the m-mbers don't feel like risking another such fiasco—especially as the Kings county grand jury will be sitting next month, and Acting District Attorney Elder is sharpening his hatchet for the oral bet tors and track officials at the bay. 1

In any event all hig stakes wiil be cut out and events will be rum for cheap overnight purses, In this way, some of the directors think, it is re ported, the club migi:t manage to clean up enough to make the meeting profit able.

Attorneys Reassuring.

The attorneys for the Bay track have, however, assured the club directors that if racing affairs are conducted as at Saratogi. and Yonkers there would be no difficulty in running fall meetings without danger of interfereace fron, the authoritics, Andrew Miller, a director of the Coney Island Jockey Club, said in rel erence to.the report:

“I think there will be a meeting. I see no reason why one should not be held. However, 1 have no authen'ic information to glve in regard to tle situation.” Blow to Racing. “I'll tell you one thing,” said one o! the best known turfmen in New York, “if the meeting at Sheepshead is de clared off it will kil] racing here for all time. Then the other tracks will fol low suit and the game will be dead. ‘The only way to keep up racing is to keep on holding rueetings and try to engineer favorable legislaticn between now and the next season. “There is no question that Mr. Elder and the Kings county grand jury have the directors of the Jockey Club badiy worried. None of them want to be in dicted, and a pretty strong tin is on that that is the fate that will be meted out to them if they attempt te carry on a racing meet.” YOUNG OTTO TRIMS THE MONTANA KID J.0S ANGELES, Cal, Aug. 2.—Young Otto, the New Yorker with the big kick, used sixty seconds of his time last might in thumping the “Montana Kid” into slumberiand at Jeffries’ arena.

X UDIES AGITATE ROWING QUESTION Sailors Will Make Determin ed Effort to Row in Na tional Regatta. ANNAPOLIS, Aug.22.—The Navy Ath letic Association, sorely disappointed over the failure of ‘he midshipmen to win the intercollegiate regatta at Poughkeepsie in 1907, is quietly but de terminediy working to get the permis sion of the Navy Department for the “middy"” oarsmen to row at Pough keepsie next summer. Every effort will be made to win over the superintendent of the Naval Acad emy to this point of view and to get him to approve a request on the part of the academy's rowing authorities for permission to send two crews to Pougi:keSpsic. The plan at preseat is to send the academy, or varsity, eight oared crew and the ‘“plebe” crew, the latter to compete with the freshman eights of the other colleges. If the Navy Athletic Association suc ceeds in getting the superintendent to approve such a request, it is considered practically certain that the Navy De partment will also approve it. The main difficulty lies in getting the ap probation of the superintendent of the academy. who this year took the posi tion that the midshipmen would lose too much time from their practical work if they went to the regatta. INDEPENDENCE LEAGUE. Twining won easily Yesterday irom Manhattans, scorzs 5-1.

Kraft passed seven men to first base, which caused his undoing. In th: third he passed four, forcing in a run, and an infield hit and an error by Walsh let in two more, while in the fourth he gave two free transpertation, forcing in one run. His best work was in the first inning. With one down Evans and Wood tore off safeties to left and Wynkoop laid down a perfect bunt, fill ing the bases, but Divver and Giebel were easy outs.

In the five Innings Twining had twelve men left on the cushions. Powell pitched splendidly. Not a ball was gotten out of the infleld by Man hattans, and the two hits registered against him were a bunt oy Buckley which Powell thought a foul ball, and a slow roller to shortstop by Kraft. Six fanned the air in the five sessions.

Buckley made a good catch of Powell's foul bunt in the fifth, picking the ball off the backstop. He would have doubled up Erwin at first base if Punt ney had held the ball Three of Twining's batters had Der fect records with the stick yesterday. Wood connected safely three times and negotiated a pass, Wynkoop was franked three times and made a safe bunt, ard Erwin got free transportation once and poled out two safeties.

That makes the reckoning hetween the {wo clubs for the season five games won by Washington and ten by Detroit. It makes the score in games won in Wash ington two for the home folk and six for Detroit. Altogether, considering the relative siandings of the two clubs in the league the showing of Cantillon's men to dats in taking one-third of the wames fro: the pennant winners is not so bad. If they can strike an even b=i. ance with the Tigers, what a time th..2 will be! Washington won yesterday because it was so full of ginger you could see iL oozing out, while Detroit bore a general appearance ot lisyessness and over raining. The two elements which have made Detroit such a success in the American League in the past twe seasons huve been heavy hitting and daring boese running. Yesterday they were up a stump on both ‘hese propositions and the Tiger coat wai mangy in conse quence. Walter Johnson held the man ealers to four hits. Or.v two of these came hunched in an inging. They were a ciean single by Schaele: and a scratch by Crawford in the third inning with two hands mi, after which Cekb ohlig ingly flied 10 Milan, leaving the swai ters marooned. In the seventh round Schmidt led off with a scratchy affair to Shipke, which Le beat out. Coughlin pepped to Freeman, O'Leary filed to Milan, and Willett fanned. Nothing horrific or dangerous to passers-by in that style of Tiger.

it was £0 seldom that Detroit got men on bases that its wild running did not have much of a chance to get started, but a very good reason for not indulg ing thievish propensities was furnisned in the eighth round. Mcintyre opened the session with a clean single to lert, We had been taught to believe that such doings meant a run for Detroit, and sighed accordingly. Schaefer fan ned, and on his third strike, which was a complicated affair, Mcintyre tried to steal. Street made a perlect throw, and McBride made a splendid catch at sec ond, extinguishing the Mcintyre person without taore ado. That lesson went straight to the bottom of the Detroit think-tank, where it wi’ probably fer fem inte a properly suodued spirit to

Y. Strange things happen in baseball, like that pop fly which McBride lost in the sun, and thereby gave a game to Bt Louis. It was through the failure ot Street to held the throw from second on the double steal of home and second by Schmidt and Coughlin in the second inning thar let iu the only Detroit run. As a rule ruch mistakes a slay pers former are fatal, but the asz rabbit feet were on the job, and all the harm done yesterday was to deprive Johnson of the credit of a shut-aut, by The reflection tha: in half his games here this year Ccbb has not hit at all will probably be helpful to some of our pitchers when they face him the re maining games of the season, but it by noe means warrants the assumption that he has gone entirely blind and could not hit a captive balloon with a blunderbuss. d i eight games. On

All this talk about batling brings us down to the main proposition, which is that Walter Johnson pitched as good ball yesterday as you could see in a vear's travel. It was genuinely con sistent, effective pitching. He did not strike out a multitude of the enemy, got out of no sensational dilemmas and he was even a bit wild, but he was pitching winning ball every minute of the time, and It was ne fault of his that Detroit scored, even if he did start the run by giving Schmidt a pass. Schmidt stole home when he should never have done if, and was advanced from first to second when Freeman let Coughlin’s Srounder aribble through his gloved hand. Willett gave a beautiful exhibition for Detroit of how a pitcher should field. He covered first three times on drives to Rossman, and in every instance was letter perfect. He got over to the bag so fast that only one of the plays was anywhere near close, and the other two made to appear ridiculously easy. ide also caught a fly and made four assists. Not because of the number of chances he accepted, but because of the prompt ness with which be discharged his dutie; in covering first and the certainty he gave to that maneuver, we think it was about the best «xhibition of the kina here this vear, nit excepting the clever work of Bert Kecley, Harry White, Nick Altrock, and other fielding pitchers.

Biil Shipke did not Bet a hit yester day. And neither did Cobb or Ganle;. ‘Custom Clyde Milan last got yesterday what has been hanging over his head— or feet—ever siice he broke into fast company. When Willett's fourth bali to him in the eighth inning went beyond Schmidt's reach, Milan tried to stretch the free pass into two bases. Schmidt got the ball and made a splendid throw to O'Leary. Milan was forced to slide and was touched out. He has a useful but dangerous habit of sliding feet first and whirling around with his legs wide open 80 as to present but one foot as an object to to and this has accounted for much of his success in base steal ing. But, it was a dead moral certaintv that sooner or later that foot aimed ac the bag would either become entangled in the dirt, the canvas bag, or the field er's foot, with disastrous results.

With his body turning and the leg consequently having a repressed ten dency twist, striking any obstacles suf ficient to check the movement of the foot would cause the body and leg to continue the roll and thereby twist his ankle. The other players have marveled that he has not snapped his ankle off dong before this, and were congratu 3

Clifford Cox, the an, which will give Pickering an opening in center. Hughey Jennings was chased in, the second inning vesterday for persisti in telling Umpire Egan what he hough of the verdict when Milan was called safe on his steal of thire In the first inning. It was a close Jecision, and Hughey may have had cause for his holler, but when the arbitrator bounced him, Hughey vamoosed without making any great uproar or inauiging in further lLeed remarks. That was wise, for the Tigers can ill-afford to lose Jennings at this time when they are distinctly in need of all the tonic they can get. There is really good ground for that protest about esident Ban Johnson of the American League, assigning only one umpire to the Detroit team. Thnat club is up in the race where one raw decision to the lack of a field um pire, might cost the owners aud players thousands of dollars. Comunon sense would seem to dictate (nat both St. Louis and Detroit should have the dou ble-umpire system as jong &8 the suppiy of um holds out. The failure to have any y here but Egan, ine youngest man on his staff, is only another evie dence of the poor discrimination Johns son has used ever since he has been in the league. He Las reduced the matter of using bulldozing tactics to a science and has gotten away with it, but he has never shown good judzment in the handling of the details of his position.

The presence of Otis Clymer in right is a big help to the Washington club. It was all right to experiment with Edmondson, and, of course, the only way to find out about new players is to try them, but what the ashington fans want now in order to gain confi dence in themselves and the team is Washington well above that .400 mark at the end of the current season. The club as it now stands is highly satis factory and promises mu for the future, but we have been dealing In futures here so long that the average Capital fan has strained his optics from constantly looking so far ahead, and the Foon hereabours want to see the team of 1908 finish with a creditable Jecord, which anything over .400 would

Stocks Decline, But Trade and Industry Show Continuous and Conservative Gains

WILD MANIPULATION INVADES THE NEW YORK MARKET AND DISTURB PRICES. NEW YORK, Aug. 22—The New York stock market was on the jump irom start to finish, not a dull minute passing fn the whole of the day's short session, The market opened on the lines of the rally of vesterday near the closing, led by New York Central. Later the wild est manipulation ensued with the heavi est selling that has been seen in Wall Street for many ag day. Sales of 5,000 to 10,000 shares were frequent, and there was a most interesting display of both attacking and supporting orders. It seemed to the onlooker as though the manipulative-factions had fallen out and were trying to knife one ahother right and left. The market was more unsteady than at any time before, and the greatest excitement prevailed on the floor of the exchange. Things looked bright at e opening, and there were said to be sufficient matched orders to carry the market safely through the day. Stocks Open Higher. New York Central opened at an ad vance of 5% and gained in all 1%. Great Northern preferred started 3% better and gained in all a point.

In ten minutes it dropped back to 763%, but later resumed a slower advance, In Smelters there was an advance of more than 2 points. New York Central jump ed from 1015 to 103%. The Rock Island stocks advanced 1 point each.

Room Traders Frightened.

This peculiar manipulation frightened the room traders, and there was a gen eral scurry to fix up accounts for over Sunday. This gave unusuai activity to the market for the balance of the ses sion, and the general covering of small er holdings strengthened the market about as much as the onslaughts of the attacking bears weakened it. it is the general opinion that a pool of Rock Island officials is heavily short of the market and that the rumors of a receivership for the property origi nated in the headquarters of the com pany. All members of the Rock Island group vigorously deny that they are short of stock. The market clcsed exceedingly active, with some stocks higher, some lower, and the best brokers in a state of mind over the situation that might warrant the use of the word “brainstorm.” No body seems to know what today's sell ing really portended, and it will take BEAT ON HIS WIFE WITH HEEL OF A SHOE James Simmons Resists Offi cer and Goes to Station in Negligee. “You're killing me! Help! Murder! Police!” and like cries of distress, greet ed the ears of Policeman Stroebel, of Substation A, as he was patrolling his beat on horseback late last evening in a lonely section of Sheriden avenue.

The policeman put spurs to his horse and hurried to the scene, Dismounting, he pushed into the house, found James Simons beating his wife, Maggie, with the nail-studded heel of a shoe. Both were intoxicated, said the policeman, and the bed room looked as if it had been hit by a cyclone. 'i'he couple were scantily clothed, and Simons refused to get dressed when placed under arrest, and even went to the station house clad in nothing but a cotton shirt.

When the scrappy couple first caught sight of Policeman §Strobel, the man made a savage rush for him and Stro bel was forced to use his club. It took a good. healthy wallop on the top of the head to subdue the prisoner, who continued his attacks all the way to the nearest station box, a quarter of a mile away. Once on the road, Simons sprang for the officer's throat, and Strobel was forced to hit him again with his club. This last tap sobered the prisoner up considerably.

i In court this morning, Simons said that he and his wife were only fooling with each other, playing a game, and that the caresses he handed her with the heel of the shoe were merely love taps. His little game cost him a $10 fine. The woman was discharged. YACHT JUANITA SURVIVED STORM MILWAUKEE, Aug. 22.—Beaten about by a storm of wind and rain from Mon day night until Wednesday night, the little schooner-rigged yacht Juanita, of Milwaukee, with David Beebe and the dead bedy of his satling companion, Fhillp Thompson, on board, was picked up in mid-lake yesterday by the steamer Helena and was today towed to the harbor here, Thompson had been steadily at the tiller for hours when in the height of the storm he arose to put on a coat. ‘Without a word he dropped to the bot tom of the boat dead. As the Juanita neared the harbor here she sank out of sight. NEW ORE DISCOVERY; RUSH TO RAWHIDE ON RENO, Nev.,, Aug. 22—Discovery of new ore at Rawhide, Nev., has caused a wild second rush to that camp. Wom en and men arc fighting here today for accommedations in tox cars to make the trip across the desert.

NEW BEDFORD, Mr=s.,, Aug. 22— John D. Archbold, jr., sun of John D. Rockefeller's partner in Standard Oil, is being sought today by officers in a $10,000 jamage suit begun by the parents of ten-year-old Gilmina De Mello, who was killed by Archbold's automobile, and for whose burial he is said to have refused to pay. j Little Gilmina De Mello died July 27 in St. Luke's Hospital here, where she had been taken by Archbold after the accident. Young Archbold hired special nurses for the child, whose parents are poor Portuguese, and for three days him self waited at her bedside. He agreed to pay all charges at the hospital, but when the $228 bill for the burial came in, James Williams, the undertaker, says Archbold balked at an item of $38 for a burial lot.

The action of young Archbold ang his willingness to pay all the other ex penses only on condition that the par ents of the dead child should sign off all claims to damages against him, has aroused great indignation, and Charles Cummings, a prominent lawyer of Fall River, cffered to act for the De Mello's without pay, and started the suit for $10,000 damages.

NEGRO IS ACCUSED OF HOUSEBREAKING Harold E. Frazier, colored, twenty years old, was locked up at the Tenth precinct station this morning on a charge of housebreaking.

QUAKERS CONTINUE WINNING STREAK NOTTINGHAM, Aug. 22. —Play was resumed here yesterday in the cricket match between the Philadelphia and Nottinghamshire elevens. Wet grounds created delay, but the Philadelphians resumed their innings, and before lunch had taken the score to 103 for seven wickets. The bowlers had difficulty in holding the ball, and the batsmen scored freely, especially Wood, who made 14 runs in a single over. Wood and Graves added 28 to the score in twenty-five minutes. Wood scored 41 before he was dis missed, and the whole side went out with 140, only one run more than had been compiled by the home team. The home team started their second innings well by close play and knocked out 117 runs with the loss of only two wickets. A couple of showers handgi capped the visitors in their bowling. Neither King nor Sayden, who shared the attack, were abie to get a foot hold. The home team took full ad vantage of this situation, and, after the loss cf one wicket for seven runs, the batsmen took control and lost the second wicket just before the close of play. Open. High. Low.Clos. CEREALS MARKET DULL AND SHADY Prices Remain Firm and Trading Js in Narrow Limits. CHICAGO, Aug. 2.—The grain market today was steady, dull, and prices a shade lower. Trading was within nar row limits, both as to prices and sales. Attention for the moment seems fo be centered in the ew York stock market and the cotton pool. Wheat opened firm at about last night's close, influenced by the low tem peratures ‘n the Northwest. Early buy ing advanced prices ¥ec. Then a flood of wheat was thrown on the market, causing a decline of %c from top prices. On the decline the market recelved fair support. j There was little news from the har vest centers today, but such bulletins as arrived here were favorable. The semewhat lu rious report of the Second National nk on the crops, criticising ‘he figures of the Census Bu reau, had no perceptible effect upon the market. It is taken to mean here that the wise ones in banking circles want to issue a sort of veiled warning against speculation, and have put it into the crop and trade report. The general condition of the specula tive grain market is good, and brokers are not worrying over the situation. Most of them would like to see more business, but they think that will come when the talent have gotten their bear ings in stocks and cotton. Wheat— Sept. ..cevensee. BH Dee.

There are many thousand persons in Washington who are unable to leave the clly for a vacation, even so short a one as a week, and yet they are enjoying themselves to their own complete satis faction.

How do they do it? They take a trip down to Chesapeake Beach every few days, take a dip in the invigorating salt water, and relax themselves for a day. They find that this is much more bene ficial than a week or two weeks of worry and bustle incident to starting off on a vacation. At the beach there is everything that can possibly tempt one to forget the troubles and cares of every day life. If you can't forget your troubles at Chesapeake Beach you are in a truly sorry condition.

There are many new attractions there. Minster’'s Orchestra is giving regular concerts which cannot be excelled, and it is a pleasure to sit on the boardwalk looking out over Chesapeake bay and listen to the music. Dancing is free in the pavilion near by, and anyone who likes crabbing can indulge in that sport to his heart's content. Trains leave ‘he District line station this afternoon at 2:00 3:00, and 5:40. Those who find it impossible to get out of town for extended summer out ings have compensation in the delight ful week-end trips to Old Point Com fort, made via the Norfolk ana Wash ington steamers. The economy of these outings is especially attractive, cne ticket covering all boat and hotel ex nses at the Chamberlin, Old Point. he price varies with the time limit, lowest priced tickets covering the round trip and a full day's accommodations at the Chemberlin, while the higher rate tickets rmii two and three days at the hotel. Chevy Chase Lake never has experi enced a more successful season than the present one. Catering as the resort does to the better element of the fam ilv clientele, its constantly increasing popularity speaks well for the measure of success management has at tained in attracting crowds of the de sired character. Dancing Is one of the features that nave helped to make the Jamestown moonlight trips popular this season. The experience is novel for a great many, the Jamestown being the first excursion boat on the river to provide a deck especially for dancing. he floor is maintained in perfect condition an the orchestra provides the best o musie. In California the elaborate system of canals for the Imperial valley was he gun in the fall of 1801. On July 1 of the following year the first water for crop raising was turned into the ditches, and 1,000 acres were irrigated. Now there are over 100 times that many acres un der irrigation and cultivation, and the permanent -water supply is ample and assured. The Washington-Sunset Route oper ates three excursions a week the year round to California. Take a dip in salt water and enjoy the boating. crabbing, and fishing at Colonial Beach it's the faworite amusement resort with everybody. Spend a day. a week or a month and you'll benefit hy the air, the pleasures, and the scenery. The trip up and down the river in the big, well-appointed steamer St. Johns is a treat 4 itself. The accommodations are the best. Hotel rates are reasonable and service is ex THE WASHINGTON TIMES, SATURDAY. AUGUST 22. 1908. EXCURSIONS. TRADE AND INDUSTRY CONTINUE TO SHOW CONSERVATIVE IM PROVEMENT. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—~Trade and In dustrials continue to expand, improve ment being of a conservative nature thai promises permanency. There is little disposition to anticipate the fu ture, but current distribution is larger, and mercantile collections are more prompt. Jobbing houses are busier, re tail buyers providing for known require ments in fall lines, although the orders are of moderate size, precluding the pos sibility of overstocked shelves. There is some complaint among wholesale dry goods jobbers that the big auction sales detracted from regu lar business, but the general situation was greatly improved by the distribu tion of those accumulations, and many retailers have remained to supplement their purchases. Reports from the West and Southwest continue to show the ef fect of bountiful harvests, large ship men's of manufactured goods going to the agricultural districts. Iron and Steel Lead, In manufacturing lines, the iron and steel Yndustry is steadily adding to out put, and shoe shops are receiving sub stantial contracts, although producers are handicapped by the persistent strength of hides and leather, Railway earnings thus far available for August were 15.5 per cent smaller than a year ago, but the last fortnightly statement of idle freight cars showed a decrease of 27,000. Immigration in July was al most 70,000 less than in the same month year, and foreign commerce de creased $35,000,000 as to imports, and $25,000,000 as to exports. For the latest week at this port alone there was a loss of $3,816,531 in imports, but the decline in exports was onl $54,401 as compared with the same wee in 1907. Money on call has ruled very easy, but failed Yo stimulate speculation in securities, which show little net change for the week. Bank exchanges at New York were 7.2 per cent less than in the same week last year, and at other leading cities the decrease was 13.1 per cent. Sales at Concessions. A few special sales of pig iron have ben made at eoncessions from former quot~tions, some merchant furnaces seeking all the business offered, but the general level of price is not materi ally altered and there is a distinet im provement in demand. Mos! recorded fransactions are for this year’s delivery, each week bringing a little larger con BUTCHERS APPEAL FOR POLICE AID Say Packers Are Importing Men Under False Pretenses. Alleging that the Washington Pack ers’ Association is bringing men to this city under false pretenses, to fill the places of the striking butchers, mem bers of the Butchers’ Union today called upon the police with the request that some action be taken. In the face of the methods pursued, however, the local police force are powerless to act unless there is some new development. The butchers were told, however, that each individual brought here could bring charges of false pretenses against the agents in his home town.

Adolph Kaufman, of Kansas City, Mo,. told the police sorrowfully of how he hgd been duped into coming to Washington by a Kansas City agent, who exacted a fee of $10 from him, and assured him that the work here was in a new plant just constructed. He'told the agent he was a union man, and was informed that that was what was wanted, that there were not enough men in Washington to obtain a full working force, Kaufman was out of work at the time, having been tempo rarily furloughed. It is claimed by the strikers that hun dreds of men have been fooled into coming to Washington, and found themselves here without means, the conditions imposed u them stipulat ing that if they did not work for a longer period. than thirty days they would have to pay their own fare.

WINDOW IS BROKEN BY NIGHT MARAUDER Detectives Seek Clue to Person Who Put Hole Through $500 Plate. A large plate-glass window on the G street side of Woodward Lothrop's store was broken in two places by some person unknqwn to the authorities last night. Ther? is a hole driven through the glass about the size of a quarter. The window cost $500. Central Office Detectives Baur and Cornwell were assigned to the case. The two cracks in the glass show that the window was evidently smashed in tentionally, but the detectives have been unable to get any trace of the mis creant. BRYAN WILL SPEAK TO LABORING MEN CHICAGO, Aug. 22.—W. J. Bryan will make his anti-injunction speech on La bor Day here under the auspices of the Injunction Reform League, just organ ized by labor leaders who are connected with the Chicago Federation of Labor. The object of the organization is to in augurate a campaign on the injunction question, and to oppose the use of the injunction in labor disputes. Member ship in the league will not be confined to members of labor unions or to any nartv ACCUSED KIDNAPER FREED BY CHILD CHICAGO, Aug. 22.—The man arrested in Milwaukee suspected of being E. J. Blair, the alle kidnaper of thirteen vear-old Veronica Cassidy, was released today owing to the failure of Veronica to identify him as the man who forcibly took her to Cincinnati. The child was taken to Milwaukee in company with her mother and three Chicago detectives. She declared the prisoner was not the man who took Per away. sumption at steel mills and some reduc tion of stocks in furnace yards. One of the best devslopments of late was the inquiry for steel cars, which is tonsiqereq an indication that ine rail ways will soon n buying equipment of various kinds, rge rail orders are known to be pending, but thus far the actual business is for export. Railway repair shops are resuming, which calls for material and suppiles. Extremely quiet conditions prevail in the priuiary markets for cotton goods. Most of the jobbing buyers who attend ed the auctions have returned home, and the retail buy ers operate most con servatively, hile it is known that these dealers are carrying light stocks, they are not dis to anticipate, Ex port trade is also dull, inquiries from India ard Red Sea points being at much lower prices than are quoted. Woolen Goods Quiet. On some lines of med's wear woolens initial purchases have been completed and many wholesale ciothiers have re turned home. Some divisions have sodd well, but, on the whole, results are not satisfactory, Worsted machin is mell occupied, but output of woolens promises to be curtailed unless supple mentary orders appear shortly. Footwear factories in New England report a steadlly improving demand from Western wholesalers, although conl tracts are chiefly for v»rompt delivery and buyers are disposed 10 operate col servatively. Eastern manufacturers arc about to send out salesmen with spring samples, and supplementary contracts for rall and winter deliveries will xlso be sought. Lecther is quiet as a rule, but certain varieties are strong and active, heavy weight sole being scarce and sold we'l alead. Farr: Staples Fluctuate. Erratic fluctuations continue in the markets for farm staples, and the re sults are largely based on speculation. Liquidation of a long line ¢f wheat at Chicago caused a sharp decline early in the weex, but support was quickly given and the loss was regained, with a net advance for the week. Harvesting of spring wheat proceeds under favor able conditions, and receipts at primary markets increase, but as an offset there is a good foreign demand and strong Liverpool <ables. The coarse grain markets aiso show net gains, corn prices practically precluding exporte. Liabilities of commercial failures thus far reported for August amounted to $15,140,862, of which §i1,619,082 were in manufacturing, $3,336,819 in trading, and $184,951 in other dommercial lines. Fail ures this week numbered 233 in the United States against 173 last year, and 24 ir. Canada compared with 16 a year ago. SUPERVISOR BLAGK GEIS BETTER PLAGE Washington Teacher Goes to Indiana to Fill Chair in University. W. W. Black, who, for two years, has been connected with the District schools and has been the supervising principal of the thirg division for some time, will shortly leave Washington, to take yp his duties as professor of the science and art of teaching, school of pedagogy, University of Indiana, at Bloomington, Ind. Mr. Black has already resigned his position in Washington, much to the regret of school officials, as he has been regarded as one of the best princi pals in the service.

VALUES IN DISTRICT LARGER BY FOURTH Assessment for Next Three YearsIncludes Service Pipes of Gas Companies. ~The fact *aat real estate values are increasing in Washington and the Dis triet of Columbia is emphasized by an estimate made by the Board of Asses sors that the increase for the next three years will be at least 10 per cent above the present total valuation, In the business sections of the city, according to the figures of the board, property has ‘nereassed in value more than 25 per cent during the last three years, and in the residence portions the increase has been about 10 per cent. The Board of Assessors has just com pleted the triennial assessment for 1908. The totals have not been reached, but the members of the board say that these will show the increases mentioned. A feature of the assessment is the in clusion of the service pipes of the gas companies. The Washington Gas Light Company {is assessed $756,000 and the Georgetown Gas Light Comply $33,600, The assessors learned last year that the pipes were not assessed, and they de cided that ve assessmeht should be made for the rext triennial period. District Assessor W. P. Richards says the new assessment includes about 150,000 pieces of land in the city and 95,000 in the rest of the District. The totaling of the assessments and the compiling of the work will take several months. As the result of a growing demand for houses in the Columbia Heights section, there remains but one house unsold in the block of seven built by Richard H. Bailey, on Thirteenth street. The sixth has just been sold Stone Fairfax. It is numbered 2910 Thirteenth street, and has three stories and a cellar. It is of brick, trimmed with white stone, containing ten roms and two tiled bath reome. It is finished throughout in hardwood and heated by hot-water system. The decorations and cabinet mantels add to the attractiveness of the house. The purchaser paid $7,500 for the property, and will occupy it as a home. The real estate corporation of Bess Phelps has sold for Robert H. Shinn to John W. Fulmer the residence at 1341 T street northwest. The house con tains ten roms and a modern bath, heated by a furnace. The lot is 13 by 100 feet, to a paved alley. The price was $6,500. Mr. Fulmer will occupy the house as his residence. The same firm has sold for M. M. Tooker her residence at 2127 Fifteenth street northwest. The house has seven rooms and a tiled bath, and is finished in oak throughout. The price was $5,600. The house was designed by Albert H. Beers and was recently buiit by Ha Wardman.« The purchaser is LIL. Shere, an out-of-town capitalist, who will retain the property as an invest ment, E. Owen Peed has purchased, through the same firm, the house at 810 D street southwest, SPpasite the Pennsyl vania railroad freight yards.

That Governdf Hughes was accepted and given the President's indorsement for renomination, and because of condi tions foreign to New York internal poli tics, is the explanation made on a very high Administration authority for the determinadicon that he shall be renomi. nated. It is said that the canvass of the ecle ments for and against Hughes in New York did not result in such a prepon= derance of demand, or in such a show= ing of strength, as would, by themselves, have dictated forcing the governor upon the reluciant party leaders of the State, On the other hand, it was indicated that there was very little to choose in strength, within New York State, as between Hughes and some other goog man. The factor which decided for Hughes is declared to have been cutside senti ment. That is, the fear that if Hughes were rejected, the progressives and in dependents of the rest of the country would take offense at it, and knowing that the President had n the head of the determining council, would as sume that the rejection meant that such policies as those for which Hughes has stood were not to be countenanced by the party leadership hereafter. A t “moral vote’ throughout the whole country was conceived to be de voted to Hughes, and to refuse indorse ment of him would menace the party with the loss of a large and widely scat tered vote which ardently admired him for his anti-gambling fight. The church vote was believed to be largely involved in this situation, and thus the decision to take Hughes again, even though it means a difficuit and complex fight in New York, was en forced by consideration of Hughes’ strength nationally.

UNION OF CHURCHES ENGLISHMAN'S PLEA 10: Lord Halifax's Letter Pub lished in Reply to Denial of Episcopalians. MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug. 22.—The Rev. F. H. Fairbanks, pastor of St. Patrick's Church, and consultor of the Milwaukee archdiocese, has received a letter from Lord Halifax, president of the English Church Union, that favors church union. Both favor reunion through Rome, and hold Rome as the center of Christian unity. The letter from Lord Halifax, which was printed in a recent issue of The Living Church, in part, is as follows: “The difficulties in the way of re union are enormous, and from a human point of view almost insurmountable. Of course, there is no real difficulty as to questions of discipline. The point is, can such explanations be given of disputed matters of doctrine as may make reunion possible, without either side being asked to assent to contradic tion of what has been authoritatively taught? It seems to me such explana tions are possible, and that many of our differences are really due to mis understandings.” The letter is published in reply to the statements of leading local Episcopal jans that there is no organized move ment in the Anglican church for a union with Rome. IZZET PASHA SAFE; TO LIVE IN LONDON Former Turkish Official Declares He Always Wanted a Con stitution. LONDON, Aug. 22.—Izzet Pasha, the former Turkish official and adviser of the Su'tan, who flad for his life after the constitution was proclaimed, arrived here last Saturday. “Here 1 intend to remain,” he said. “England is now my home; my coun iry.” Izzet's account of the Youn Turks’ coup tells nothing, but he was impres sively earnest in his declaration that both the Suitan and himself always desired a constitution. Despite the fulfillment of their desire, Izzet rushed to England. He feared to land at Genoa, lest his women folks’ dresses should betray his identity, there being one or two men in that city whom he feared. He sent his family to a place of safe ty, which he does not mention, and then made straight for London. ITALIAN STRIKERS FIGHT WITH HINDOOS

PUTS GOLD TOOTH IN LION'S MOUTH NEW YORK, Aug, 22.—A dentist put a good tooth in a lion's mouth yes terday at the Bostock arena in Dream land, Coney Island. A South African lion named Vendredi had lost its main molar and refused to eat, It pecame thin and sickly, and Dr. A. 8, McDougall, a dentist at Coney Is land, said that to save the lion from dying of starvation he would insert a bridge. Twenty-two pennyweights of gold were required, and the operation cost Mr. Bostock $150. The lion was tied and an iron bar was lashed far back between the jaws. The dentist then inserted the bridge and made it fast. The lion trained to break away, but its fasten bes were (eQ strong, “Her eyes look as if she might have been crying.” “She has; she is mourning her hus band's loss.” “Why, I didn't know he was dead!” “He isn't, but he played with the poker bunch last night and lost the money that was to have purchased her a sheath gown.” —Fxchange.

COMMUTERS PROTEST AGAINST STATION

Alexandrians Want Their Original Plan for the Pennsylvania Railroad Carried Off

Protest is made by the residents of Alexandnia, Va., to the recent order of the Commissioners suspending their former order requiring the Pennsylva nia railroad to select a site for a sub station beiween Four-and-a-half and Seventh street southwest, It is the in tention to right the Proposes plan to establish the station at Fourteenth and Water streets, and the Virginia com rmuters have enlisted Senator Martin and Representative Carlin in their cause.

Converts.

Scott Nesbit and Mr. Richards, repre senting the commuters, have waited upon Commissioner West and submitted a number of arguments against the lo cation of the station at the latter site. One of ghe principal objections is the absence of street car facilities in that neighborhood “Why did he buy that seccnd hand fire-escape? He paid a good price for it and it's nothing but junk.” “Not to him. He thinks maybe he can induce somebody to build a theater or an office bullding to fit it."—Ex change.

AN OPTIMIST Baltimore Ohib Excursion Mr. William Shakespeare, late of Avon, may have been pretty long on human emotions and far from a seed when it came to nolding the locking glass up to nature, But when he cas ually mentioned that there isn’t any thing in a name he fell down hard. Just takes the instance of the Wright brothers who have invented the mest wonderful flying machine that ever graced the firmament. According to Orville Wright himself, who aeroplaned into Washington yesterday on the heels of sixty-seven stories that he was com ing the day before, or last week, or maybe next month, that machine was made possible because he and ius broth er, Wilbur, got in right—and got in right, right at ‘he beginning “You see,” said Mr. Wright as he crossed his legs and hung them gently over a chair in the lobby of the St James last night, “about the first thing we saw when we started to look inte ‘aerial navigation was that there wus not enough attention to the art of fi, ing and that too much study had been given to the motive power.

“While we had to dig around for some time trying to find literature on the ‘subject of airships, when we decided to go into that field, we at last did find many books and saw, through reading them, that all the failures—and all the books, of course, were records of fail ures—were caused by the fact that the ability to fly had been made a minor matter, the question of the development of power being put first. Learns to Fly First. “So we decided that we would learn to fly first of all. We took our. machine ‘down to Kilidevil Hill in the Carolinas, and there, in mapy experiments, we ‘were able to glide closer to the earth than any one had previousiy done. By that is meant that our flight from the ‘starting point to the place of landing was made at a very small angle.” Mr. Wright, one can see by merely looking, is not the horribly reserved person one might expect after reading the voluminous reports te that effect ‘which have appeared at various times during the past few moaths. He is a quick-spoken man, about medium ‘height, weighing about 14 pounds, just ‘about enough for a good aeronaut, who ought not to be heavy. He has a r of blue eyes that are full of the quick ness of knowledge and interest, and while not a ready talker, he is a good one if he is interested in the subject under discussion. “We never tried to keep our flights secret,” he said. ‘““The newspaper men who came down to Killdevel hill were the ones who made our movements mysterions. We would have been glad to have them come out if they had de sired. but they didn’t de it. We were usually able to spot those who did try to come throug disguised-—disguised because they thought we would want te stop them. One Dressed as Hunter. “We encountered one man whe came out dressed as a hunter with a real suit of hunter's clothes and a New York accent that sounded like the middle of Farty-seconé street on a hot summer day. This man, we werz sure, was a newspaper man. He seemed te be too blase about the airship. He al Health Officer W. C. Woodward de sires to have it understood that Pound master Samuel Einstein is not engaged in the business of impounding cats. A statement was published recently to the effect that the dog catchers are engaged in separating feline pets from their loving owners, and ruthlessly ¢ragging them to the pounl, thers to suffer an igznominious deat.. Dr. Woodward denies the allegation. Cats, he declares, are impoundcd only upon request of ‘their owners. Commis sioner Macfarland recommended recent ly that cats be impounded, but this was overruled by his colleagues, Commis sioners West and Morrow.

i Mrs. West, it may be mentioned in passing, is president of the Washing ton Cat Club. “So you don’t like modern methods of handling a eampaign>”

OKLAHOMA BANKS KEEPING CHARTERS Treasury Official Denies Story That State Law Makes Many T. P. Kane, Acting Comptroller of the Currency, today contradicted a widely spread report that many national banks in Oklahoma were surrendering their national charters and enrolling under the State banking system, because Of the opinion rendered by the Attorney General recently, that they could not lawfully avail themselves of the new State and guaranty law in that State. “There are about 310 national banks in the State of Oklahoma,” said Mr. Kane, “Only fifty-seven jave entered into the aranty scheme. On August 8 these fty-seven banks were notified that they must withdraw from the agree ment. 0 far, replies have been re celved irom thirty-three of them, Twenty-seven have informed the Comp trolier that they have notified the State banking board of their desire to with draw fromsihe guaranty agreement.” TOO MUCH SYSTEM. Watch for a city—Randle Highlands THE WASHINGTON TIMES, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1908. Terrible Hains Tragedy ways wanted to lave the vicinity ef the camp, but never did. He got off much conversation about hunting. which isn’t good at the time of year we were flying, and generally showed that he wasn't a true nimrod. We learned afterward that he told other people that he was a Fou ntativé of a New York newspaper, we never saw anything in his paper about what he saw.” The Magazine Section Of Tomorrow’s Times The Carolina mosquite is about the only Ung that has balked the Wrights so far hey have found how to fly; they have found that a big engine with a lack of flying ability is about as use less as a Congressman in hot weather and they have dene other things which the reporter doesn't know, but about ‘which he will try to find out later, but they have not heen able to invent a aeroplanetic Mbaquite killer that will effectually and irrevocably eradicate these pests. Mosquitoes Bother Them. “They were so thick down there” continued Mr. Wright, “that we would be able to see them on the side of our house several miles away—or was it vards? But at any rate, they were very had and very vicious. There was no possible way to get rid of them except Oy the suffocating method in which you either suffocate the mosquito or yourself and don't much care which.”

Mr, Wright hopes to fiy in a few days, although he doesn’t yet know how few that wiil be’ He says he is willing to take the $25,000 the Government wants to give some aeroplanist samoleona non grata. Mr. Wright thinks that there is a great future in the aeroplane and be eves that they will eventually occupy higher place, sp=aking practically, fignratively and typewritively, than will the dirigible balloon. Pupils of Baldwin Fast Become Experts The dirigible school of Fort Myer, of which Capt. Thomas 8. Baldwin is chief instructor, pulled off three illustrations of the dirigibility of balloons yesterday evening, Litouenants Lahm, Selfridge and Foulols petween them making three flights of varying speed and duration. General Allen, who saw the pupils in these latest of all schools mexe their sky journey, was well pleased, while Orville Wright, who happened to be about when the flitting was under way, said the Baldwin machine looked good and flew well.

According to Prof. Baldwin, at Present chief demonstrator in aeronautics, the officers will need but little more instruc tion by him. Last night, they at one time left the vicinity of the parade ground and sailed ldly away. In one flight, they were up seven minutes and in another they made a speed of almost sixteen miles an hour That according to the captain, is going so much that his presence is hardly needed more. 1

At 8 o'clock tonight, in the rooms of the National Press Club, the Washing ton writers who have been ‘‘doing” the balloon stories, will give a banquet to Captain Baldwin. Guests of honor will include Captain Baldwin, General Allen, Major Squier, Captain Wallace, Lieuten ant Lahin, Lieutenant Foulois and Lieu tenant Selfridge; Augustus Post, secre tary of the Aero Club of America; Or ville Wright, Prof. Albert Zahm, of the Catholic University; Lincoln Beachy and others prominent in aeronautics who ere in Washington, ATTORNEYS GENERAL CLOSE CONVENTION DENVER, Col, Aug. 22.—No place for the next convention of the National As sociation of Attorneys General, members of which are leaving Denver today, has yet bean decided on.
