Saturday; NUMBER 6106. WASHINGTON, FRIDAY EVE NING, SEPTEMBER 25, 1908. PRICE ONE CENZ. DEMOCRATS TO HIT 1904 G.0.P_ FINANCES Managers Plan Broadside Expose of Deals in the Last Campaign.

INCLUDES CHARGE OF JUDGE PARKER May Be Made Public in a Speech by Bryan, or in a Letter to the President. hoe J ind sg NEW YORK, Sept. 25.—The Demo erats are getting together a broadside about the financing of the Republican campaign in 1904. Spite of None of the management will say a word about how the material is to be used. It is known, however, that it will be put forth either in a speech by Mr. Bryan or in an open letter addressed to the President by Bryan.

At any rate, the material relating io the 1904 finances has been gathered at Democratic headquarters, including the speech of Judge Parker charging use of corporation funds against the Re publicans; the indignant denial by Presi dent Roosevelt; the Sidney Webster let ter of E. H. Harriman, and the letter of President Roosevelt to Representa tive Sherman apropos of the Harriman relationsi with the campaign finances.

The understanding is that Haskell will retire nominally of his own volition, very soon. It is expected that he will write a letter to Chairman Mack, say ing that as he is under indictment, and as a man in politics under indictment is presumed to be guilty until he proves himself innocent; and as it would take considerable time to make the proper showing of evidence; therefore, Haskell takes himself out of the national cam paign, with the understanding that af ter election he shall have a full public inquiry to establish his innocence. Af ter election, of course, it will not be so tremendously important to anybody except Mr. Haskell whether the inves tigation comes off.

Mack Going to Chicago. Chairman Mack will go to Chicago Sunday and will not be back in the East till after October 10. He is very wel] pleased with the situation, Ie says. The mystery of where Mr. Bryan is to spend the last two weeks of October in some degree cleared today when it was admitted at Democratic headquarters

that New York, Connecticut, Delaware, Ohio, Maryland, and Indiana are likely to get a good deal of attention. How ever, it was said that no dates have been made, Chairman Mack sald posi tively today that the resignation of Haskell has not heen sent to him, and that he has had no communication with Haskell concerning the charges against the latter.

Mr. Mack was asked if all money for the campaign fund passes through the hands of Treasurer Haskell “It does not,” he said. “Some of it comes to me; more goes to the chair man of the flnance committee, Colonel Moses Wetmore, more goes to the as sistant treasurer, A. G. Doolen, who is an Oklahoma man. But it is all ac counted for on the books of the assist ant treasurer, no matter to whom it goes. These books will make a com plete showing of it in due time.” May Ask Inquiry. There is a good deal of talk that the next session of Congress will not be far advanced before effort will be made in Congress to obtain legislative cog nizance of the charges about corrup tion of legislators by special interests, with a view to having an investigation in charge of some sort of committee empowered to send for bocks and pa pers and to summon witnesses.

Na@body claims to know of any par ticular authority for the reports, but the impression gains ground that some body with a disposition to make some political capital will try to force such an inquiry. 1 The developments of the national scan dal” about Standard Oil corruption through the outgiving of more letters by William R. Hearst last evening at the Independence party convention, have caused more consternation. Hearst has now given out letters from 1889 to 1904, and the question is on a good many trembling lips, whether he has been able to get copies of a large share of the Standard Oil political and public affairs correspondence during that time. He appeais to have a new installment of hot stuff to feed out whenever occa sion demands, and to be willing to make occasions. Mr. Hearst sald the other day that he had plenty of material in confirmation of the charges he had made up to that time, and, naturally, there is wonderment as to" how much and what sort of confirmation he has.

i

Think Haskell Gone. That Treasurer Haskell will go, and

go very shortly, is: accepted at Demo cratic headquarters today. Chairman

Winding up his testimony in the con tempt proceedings before Referee Harp er today, President Samuel Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, charged that the entire proceeding was an attempt to curtail his right of free speech and editorial comment: In answer to questions put to him by his attorney, he sald that he did not believe that the injunction order against him had deprived him of his constitu tional rights, and he did not believe that his right to editorial utterance and free speech had been forfeited because of the institution of the contempt pro ceedings against him. He declared further that in his opinion he was not enjoined from editorially analyzing the decisions of Justices Cla baugh and Gould and to discuss them in he columns of the American Federa tionist. Claims Conspiracy Exists. Answering the repeated objections by Daniel Davenport, counsel for the Buck Stove and Range Company, against the admissibility of evidence, Mr. Ralston, of counsel for Mr, Gompers, declared that it was his intention to show that thie American Federation of Labor and the officers of that body were the vie tims of a cruel war waged against them by three bodies of organized capital and hired lawyers, who worked to injure and destroy every body of organized Jabor, if that were possible. Mr. Ralston charged that the proceed ings were not brought by the prosecu tion to obtain a judgment for contempt, but more for the purpose of obtainin data upon which to base endless lega persecutions. Mr. Ralston made this statement when the testimony offered by him was objected to by Mr. Daven port. He maintained that he had a perfect right te show the existence of a gigantic conspiracy against organized labor. Follows Up Charge. When President Gompers resumed his testimony this morning, he followed uj the bribery charges of yesterday by de claring that while he was ill at the Victoria Hotel, New York—on his death bed, it" was supposed at the time—in October last, Broughton Brandenh.rg, whom he had previously accused of ot fering him =a bribe in the name of Pres ident Van Cleave, of the Manufacturers’ Association, had brought him a letter {on sign as ‘his dying deposition. The first page of the letter, said President Gompers, was filled with flowery rhe toric about his being ready to pass away, and the remainder was to have been filled in after his signature was obtained. Mr. Gompers declared that it was the intention to spread this broadcast after his death as a renunciation of ciganized labor, After looking over the document, he said, he determined to keep it in his possession, with Brandenberg’'s consent if he could obtain it, but to keep it any way, if it cost him his life. And Presi dent Gompers gave the table beside which he sat a lusty thump by way of emphasizing what he sald. “Smother Bryan.” Mr. Gompers read froia a confidential circular, sent out by the Manufacturers’ Association over the signature of Presi dent Van Cleave. The circular says that should Bryan be elected it would tell the country and the world at large that radicalism and revolution would become dominant in the Unitedd States. It called upon the business men of the country to smother Bryan so deep at the polls in November that they will never have 10 do it again.

The entire proceedings were marked by tilts between counsel and the ex change of biting comment, Denies Gompers’ Claim. 3 “i believe Mr. Gompers knew it to be a lie when he made the'statement,” de clared James W. Van Cleave, president of the National Association of Manu facturers, in denying the charges made by President Gompers. In a statement made for publication, Mr. Van Cleave said: “1 have never employed detectives or intermediaries to shadow Mr. Gompers or any other official of the American Federation of Labor. Neither have 1 offered him a bribe af any Kind, nor have I ever had any connection with the men he claims shadowed him and offered him a bribe.

“ILvery reference mada therein to mae or to action on my part is false, and I believe Mr. Gompers knew it to be a lie when he made the statements. seems to be trying to make a cheap martyr of himself. “I never have and never will em any methods that are not square, and above in my a ke this without equivocation. TAFT GETS PLEDGES FROM IOWA LEADERS fe Republican Candidate Also Cheered When He Makes Speech to Labor Men. SAYS HE IS FRIEND OF GOOD UNIONS Denies Being “Father .of Injunc tions.” and Defends His Acts While on the Bench.

severely strained throat, William H. Taft addressed a crowd of 0,000 persons In the public park of Clinton, Iowa, at 8:30 o'clock this morning, and spoke half an hour. His next stop was at Lavenport, and from here he goes to Muscatine and Wapello. This afternoon he will speak at Burlington, Ottowuisa, and Oska loosa, and tonight he will address a big meeting in Des Moines, where he will spend the night. His trip through Iowa today has been a triumph equal to that of yesterday, when Wisconsin was clinched to his caure by the unqualified statement of La Follette that he and all Lis follow ers were in line heart and sou. for the national ticket. At Clintor th:s morn ing he was received by the two {actions in the lowa Senatorial fight and among those on the platform with him were former Representative Lacey, who is rurning as the ‘‘standpat’” candidate for the Senatorial nomination, and Governor Cummins, who !s the radical candidate against Lacey.

Taft was assured by both factions and their leaders that so far as the national ticket is concerned, lowa Republicans mean tc vote solidly and without a break. Met by a Committee. He was received in Clinton oy a com mittee consisting of Governor Cummins, former Representative Lacey, Represen tatives Dawson, Kennedy and Walter I. Smith; National Committeeman Ernst Hart and former Representative George M. Curtis. He was introduced by Cum mins, who said: “lowa is one State that is not doubtful. It is ‘he one State which no extreme of aud: city dares to put in the doubtful cotur.::.” Judge Taft spoke on labor, as the greater part of his audience consisfa of union labor men. He reviewed the arguments for the Republican laber pol icies which he made in his Chicago speech and said: “Instead of being de nounced as labor's foe, I am entitled to the friendship and gratitude of labor, for my decision on the bench expressed those principles on which labor unions have since thriven and grown more use ful in the community at large. T mere ly established the f{acis that the sec ondary boycott, the dragging of a third party into boycott is wrong. It is un American and it is not according to law, and the man who says I am not a friend of labor says what is false.” He was cheered loudly by the union men when he said: “It is true that I put Phelan in jail, but it Is also true that he richly dge served it. He had broken the law, and if such a case came to me again when i was on ithe bench, I should do as I did then. Now, Mr. Bryan has said that am the father of injunctions, and that he is the father of the Roosevelt poli cies.” Brands Bryan’s Statements. “Both these statements I emphatically deny, for neither one is true. You must remember that the Republican party has a record for things done in order to put tke laboring man on a level! with his cnployer. The Democrats have no such record. The Democratic Congress in which Bryan served put no legislation ci: the statute books to help the cause «t labor.” On the train with Taft today there are Cummins and Lacey and Repre sentatives Dawson and Smith. While he is out for “an honest and thorough revision of the tariff,” l.acey is em phatic in his declarations that he and kis following will support Taft. As matter of fact, they are obliged to, fur they cannst turn to Eryvan with any hope of not having the tariff revised, ani Republican revision is more accept ab'e to them than Democratic revision. It was feared at first that, as the Re publican primary for the Senatorial nornnation will be held on election day, and the Republicans will vote on Cum mins and Lacey at the same time they vote on the national ticket, confusion might result and nullify the national votes. Taft to Get Full Vote. This, however, it is said, will not re sult, and Taft will get the full Republi can vote of the State. So far, his tour has been marked by enthusiastic crowds and by declarations that State differ ences will not be allowed to interZere with the strength of the national ticket. His strength has been greatly increased in the Middle West by the earnest sup port of the La Follette and Cummins, leaders of what is calied the radi cal movement. This has put upon him the indelible mark of progressiveness and the vast progre give element of the West, the admir: of Roosevelt, have turned to him as man they want to elect.

Governor Cummins said: “Iowa is going to do the right thing. She will give Taft a majority of 100,000 in November.” Taft spoke on his intentions, if elected President to carry out the policies of Roosevelt as regards the trusts. “Because of my association with the t in the Cabinet and because of my knowledge of trusts,” he said, “I shall be able to carry out the Re. publican policy of keeping the great corporations within the law.

Thirteen States and three Canadian FIND PLOT T0 KILL PRESIDENT ONHUNI French Police Discover An archist Plan on Arrest of Spaniard. BAYONNE, France, Sept. 35. —Evi dence of an anarchist plot against Presi dent Roosevelt, on his forthcoming hunting trip to Africa, was made public today by the police authorities of a half dozen countries who are examining “he anarchist, Canatrava, in an Spanish e suspected effort to connect him with th plot against the life of King Alfonso of Spain. it was disclosed that papers were found on two Italian anarchists arrested at Sessa, Switzerland, Wednesday, con taining confirmation of the Roosevell plot. The sweating process is expected to expose the plan of one of the worst terrorist uprisings ZEurope ever has seen. They are trying to connect his move ments with the mysterious departure of sixteen German anarchists from Berlin to Hungary. and the meeting of 10 Italian anarchists Wednesday at Sessa. Two of this latter group were the ones who had the data concerning Roose velt's trip. They are now in jail at Geneva, and a thorough effort is being made to obtain further evidence against them. The papers found on these two con tained plans of the autumnal trips of nearly all the European leaders, and police officials all over Europe suspect that concerted uprising is well under way. The plot against Alfonso's life was timed for tomorrow, during “his trip to Biarritz, the police say. There is every evidence that the anarchists invited a woman to join the band that had been formed for the purpose of as sassinating the Spanish King As a result of the disclosures made today, the guards In nearly every royal household in Europe have been in MANUFACTURERS WIN PAPER MILL STRIKE NEW YORK, Sept. 25.—After three days of heated conferences, the repre sentatives of the International Paper Company have won over those of the International Paper Makers’ Union.

Accord ing to the officials of the office, whe the parties damaged are always willing to accept compensation from the Dis. trict, the District is placed to consid erable trouble in collecting assessments for benefits.

Trust Head. PRESIDENT AWAITS OFFICIAL NOTICE Loeb Thinks “Voluntary” Retire ment From Republican Campaign Wiil Help Candidates. Thomas Coleman du Pont is out. Although his resignation has not yet been made known by Chairman Hitch cock, Secretary Loeb announced today that the President is expecting to hear that the sillionaire president of the so-called Powder trust, and director of the bureau of campaign speakers of the Republican party, had given up his JDolitical pest. In the same breath Mr. Loeb sald it was the understanding that the resigna tion would be “voluntary.” “You may say,” sald the President's secretary, “that it is stated fron the White House that for several days news of The resfgnation of Mr. du Pont from the bureaw has been expected. believe that covers the ground fully.” in view of this statement, it is thought ‘that news of the resignaticn wiil be received soon. Beginning of Housecleaning. Although ne further comment was made at the White House on the du Pont matter, it is generally accepted that the resignation of Director du Pont is the beginning of the housecleaning that is to be Inaugurated at the instance of the Chief Executive. It comes as an interesting sequel to the Foraker re nunciation, the Bryan-Haskell-Hearst controversy, and as a forerunner of the impending shake-up in both parties. Mr. du Pont was appointed to, the speaker's bureau by Chairman Hitch cock August 4 It is said by Republi can leaders who are close to the Ad miristravion that in the light of recent developments the appoinument never has been particularly pleasing to the President, and it is believed that Chairman Hitchcock was so advised some time ago. No explanation of the delay in the resignation of Mr. du Pont, admittedly expected “for several days,” is made. It has been announced that the Pres ident does not propose to take any no tice ¢f Mr. Kern's attack on the per sonnel of the national committee, which attack was burdened largely with criti ¢ism ¢f Mr. du Pont and National Treasurer George P. Sheldon. Since Mr. du Ponts connection with the national committee, it has been said that he is falilling his promise to ex pend alli his time on the bureay and Elve It "a strietly business administra tion.” Encouraging reports have gone out from New York that the miliionaire director has worked night and day for the success of the Taft-Sherman ticket. and his decapitation is likely to throw a bombshell in the Republican camp. It is undersiood that the President's letter, which called for the elimination of Mr. du Pont as a factor in Republi can councils, went out from the White House in advance of his reply to Mr. Bryan, anent the Haskell charges, and that therefore it was not provoked by the retaliatory comments of Kern and Bryan. “Ready to Lose Leg,” Says Gen. du Pont NEW YORK, Sept. 25. —General du Pont, head of the Republican speakers’ bureau, today was asked about the re port that President Roosevelt has de manded (hat he be retired from that position. He said he had not read the report and had received no mtimation from the President er from Chairman Hitchcock that his resignation was wanted. “1 can’t tell vv a2 1 may do,” he said. “I suppose if 1 saould lose a leg I would quit. may lose a leg.

Reed was arrested yesterday Ly Lieu tenant Judge, aided by Officers A. W. Smith and T. W. Sweene), of the Eighth precinct police station, after the police had laid several bets in Reed's poolroom. Some time ago, Smith and Sw ey, on duty at Fourteenth and U s were detailed by Lieutenant Judge to make an investigation of Reed's estab lishment. On visiting the place it was found that Reed used the front room on the ground floor of 1653 Fourth street as a tailor shop, while in the rear room on the ground floor, the police say, was fecund a complete poowroom and hand book layout, in full operation. A black board, containing entries at several race tracks, slips and checks, and handbooks on the outcome of the pennant race for championship of the National and American baseball leagues were set up in the poolroom, the police say. Last Monday the two officers placed bets that proved “also rans,” for they were informed by Reed that their se lections had not “run in the money.” Keeping the slips, the officers reappear ed at Reed's place on Wednesday, and placed another bet, and worn.

HASKELL 1S OUT SAYS NEW RUMOR 4 RR re Local Democrats Admit Bry an Should Let Gov ernor Resign. Strong rumors was eirculating about Washington today to the effect that Gov. Charles N. Haskell, of Oklahoma, had resigned his position as treasurer of the Democratic committee. In spite of the word from Chicago that Mr. Haskell has just given $20,000 to the Democratic campaign fund, which will ‘buy cocktails” for the Chicago establishment of the party, the rumor seemed well founded.

While neither Democratic headquar ters in the Union Trust building nor Edwin A. Newman, Democratic commit teeman for the District had received any word as to the resignation of Gov

ernor Haskell, there was an air of un certainty about their conversation, that in the present status of the Hears' Haskell-Bryan-Roosevelt episode might easily be taken to mean that they have received private advices to the effect that the governor will get out 'n the im mediate future.

DELINQUENTS PAY PERSONAL TAXES

Collector's Announcement Has Al ready Begun to Bear Fruit in City. The announcement of Charles C. Rogers, Collector of Taxes, of his inten tion to collect delinquent personal taxes by levying, if necessary, upon the property of those in debt to the District has already met with results. Follow ing his declaration to this effect yester day a number of citizens were on hand when the office was opened this morn ing, and all through the day the office force was busily engaged in receiving

rsonal taxes and receipting therefor.

r. Rogers said today that he feels much encouraged at the results thus far shown. Thirty-three taxpayers call ed before the office closed yesterday. eee

The Collector, however, is not depend ing upon delinquents to appear in per son. Six bailiffs were today sworn in as special policemen, and began the work of collection, with instructions te accept no excuses, but. If necessary, to distrain the personal property of those whe refuse to pay. his property, or ag much as may be necessary, will be sold at public auction to pay arrears.

The number of delinquents for 1903, according to the (Collector, is approxi mately 5,90, the amount owed, aggre gating $60,000. In addition there are 10, 000 separate accounts, covering a period from 1902 to 197 inclusive, wi Fon aggre gate approximately $60,000, so that there is owing to the District, in unpaid per sonal taxes, $120,000.

i In the opinion of Collector Rogers, the greater part of this can be col ected, and every effort will be made by him toward that end.

a No Prosecution Likely in Case of Representative Carter, Who Owns Building. *It was stated officially at the Post office Department today that it proba bly would be determined to cancel the lease on the postoffice building at Ard more, Okla, and no attempt would be made to prosecute Representative Charles D. Carter, of Oklahoma, who iz charged with having rented the building to the Government for the past five years in violation of a Federal statute, which prohibits a member of Congress from making any contract with the United States Government. First Assistant Postmaster General Grandfield said that the final determi nation of the case was being withheld, pending a conference with Postmaster General Meyer.

The officials believe that it is impos~ sible to prosecute the Member of Con gress in view of a previous ruling by the Assistant Attorney General for the Postoffice Departmen’, who held that 8 contract made previous to a Repre sentative taking the oath of office was not in violation of the strict letter of the law. a“

Quite indisputatlc evidence of this is ‘Reginald De Koven, musical eritic and compcser, who has written the scores of many well-known operas, but who usefl to be a newspapermen, and who isn’t averse to a hit of well intended publicity. He stood down in the very first row of the deserted National Theater this morning, walking backward and for ward, swining his cane and listening to the orchestra which labored faith fully over the score of his new light opera, “The Golden Butterfly,” which will be produced here, for the first time, next week. “Well,” he remarked,” as he sat down, “how much do you want? 1 used to be a newspaper man myself, and I can give you anything from a ‘stick’ to a coi umn. ‘““After the success of the ‘Merry Widow,” Mr. Smith and I decided that the trend of taste in this country was toward the ‘light opera,” and away from the many, many ‘comic operas.” I would like to have the public understand that ‘The Golden Butterfly’ isn't a comic opera, but truly a ‘light opera.’

“The music and the book are not thrown together haphazard, but there is a homogeneity to the production which distinguishes it from the comic opera of the day. The music comes in naturally.

BOSTON, Mass., Sept 25.—James A. Ten Eyck, jr., an oarsman, stroke of the victorious Syracuse varsity crew this year, who was arrested In Syracu for the Salem police, will be brought here to answer a charge of grand lar cerry.

It is a’eged that last August Ten Eyck, working with several others, swindled Stephen S. Gauss, twenty-one vears old, a clerk in the Salem Savings Bank, out of $1,500. Gauss, to make up the loss, confessed to taking 31.500 of the bank's money, Gauss in his complaint to the Salem police described what they know as a “sucker” pool game. The descriptions of the swindiers led the police to swear out a warrant for Ten Eyck and two others, whose names were not known. The game in which Gauss lost his money was played in Boston jast month. Ten Eyck was traced to Worcester, thence to New York, and with the open ing of the school year at Syracuse the ice learned that he had returned to is studies, When placed under arrest he denied his guilt and claimed that he had no connection with any swindling game. Ten Eyck is the son of James A. Ten Eyck.

“We have made ‘The Golden Butter fly’ a three-act opera. I do not think, nor does Mr. Smith think, that the two act opera is in acocrd with the best ideals of light opera. In the two-act production there is an opportunity for but two finales. In this new opera there are three finales, ana all of them are real finales, fitting in with the progress of the play. “Miss Van Studdiford has surrounded herself with a company of artists. She is trying, you know, to establish a com pany like the Bostenians, which will be able to give the best light operas. She has developed wonderfully since she ap in ‘Red Feather,” and not only has her voice become even more magnificent, but according to Marc Klaw—and according to me, too, of course—'she has become a real actress.’ “One of the hardest problems we had to face wag that of a name. We thought of calling the opera ‘Forget Me Not,’ ‘The Understudy,” ‘Star for a Night,’ etc. But the manager, Mr. Bradley, finally chose ‘The Golden Butterfly,’ after Mr. Smith lad sent in at least seventy-five suggestions. I think it is a very happy name. In the second act there is a butterfly song and a butter fly ballet. J “The plot is a pretty one, and quite dramatic. It revolves about an opera that hag been gtolen by the ‘intendant’ of the Royal Theater in Budapest. 1 was in that city for some time studying, and there are some Hungarian airs In the score—not imitations of Hungarian music, but my own conceptions which have the Hungarian theme and rhythm."

Deputy Comptroller Allevi ates Sting of His Chief's Criticism.

The bank examiners, who have been ‘putting In many an uncomfortable hoor since they assembled in Washington last Monday at the request of Comp troller Lawrence Murs, are feeling a bit better today as a result of a straight from-the-shoulder talk by T. P. Kane, deputy comptroller of the currency.

Mr. Kane did not handle his subordi nates with gicves, and he approved of much of the criticism which was heaped upon them by the Comptroller. He said, however, that the fault of the few was taken by the public at large to be the fault of the entire body of examiners, a fact which he deplored.

Much of the criticism of the exami ners, he said, was due to a class of men in the service who are careless and neg ligent. He divided the examiners into three classes,

i

The Three Classes.

“The first class,” he said, “comprising about one-half of the total number, is composed of men who rank as high in ability and are as capable of rendering and do render as good énd reliable serv ice as any men engaged in their line of work in the Government service or out side of it,

Ee

“One-half of the remainder are men of as good average ability as may be found in any sfmilar occupation; while about one-fourth of the total number are below the standard of the second class.

i

“Many of the examiners of the third class have nad the necessary training and experience to qualify them for bet ter work, but fail in tne performance of their duty through negligence care lessness or lack of due diligence.

BE i _— 50¢ “The resuits of the good work that they do never become a matte: of pub lic information. The superficial work €Xposes itseit. The result is an in creasing lack of confidence on the part of the public in the efficacy and reli

1 ability of bank examinations in gen eral,

Many Charges Unjust.

“While in a number of cases bank examiners have justly deserve( (he criticisms that have been heaped upon them by the press, financial periodicals, and the public in general, in many more Instances they have been uniustly held responsible for conditions asd results absolutely beyond their contri), and in this latter respect administr. tive of ficials have bden held equally account able.

1

“While the superficial w«:k of some examiners in tne past can not be ex cused or defended, examiners, and ad ministrative officials have becn fre quently un’ustly held accountable for conditions existing in banks, resulting in large losses or failures, for whien they were in no way respcensible, and were powerless to correct. Conditions that are due to defective laws ana not to incompetent examinations or to faulty supervision.

“300d judgment on thé part of bank officers cannot be insured nor bank failures be prevented by legislation, bur the known weaknesses in the law ean be co strengthened as to minimize the dangers arising from this cause, aud the standard of efficiency of examina tions can be so improved as to bag the work of all examiners up to that o the first class.” _~ STOP COTTON RUYING

Prof. Pawlow, of Russia, was en gaged for many years in experimental work, trying to learn the workings of digestion, especially the digestive glands. He, with able assistants, operated upon dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and other animals. His methods were seemingly painful, but he gave to science a work, which won the Nobel prize and made for him an undying fame. Science penetrated the secrets of na ture. Prof. Pawlow saw animals digest food. He analyzed juices from every part of the digestive canal and stom ach under all conditions of digestion. He spent years of ceaseless study amid the howling and dying beasts, but he won, and science today looks upon him as a great man. “To do a great right do a little wrong’® Shakespeare said, and Prof. Pawlow obeyed this trite saying.

ENGINEER'S BRAVERY AVERTS BAD WRECK Presence of Mind in Using Emer gency Brakes Saves Many lives ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, N. J. Sept. 25.—Excellent work on the part of the two engineers prevented what it seemed would be a serious accident here. Owing to a displaced switch, a train crowded with passengers from the Sandy Hook boat ran on the same track as an ali-rail train from New York, and a collision seemed inevitable. Both engineers threw on the emer gency Ss, but the momentum was 00 eat to entirely stop the trains, and the engines went on Bo into one another. Most of the passengers were thrown from their seats and several jumped, but none was badly burt. The plots of the engines were smashed, but he quick work of the trainmen pre vented a collision at great speed to make it serious. FOUR ARE INJURED IN TROLLEY CRASH car were inj ire: d in a rear-end street the cu and New York avenue. Running down New York avenue at a high rate of speed, it is said, a LeDroit Park car crashed into a heavier City and Sub urban car, shaking up the passengers considerably. ~All of the injured were on the crowd ed LeDroit Park car.

That proves its superiority. P. G. Naphtha Soap is white—there is no rosin in it. Ordinary naphtha soaps are yellow—they contain rosin. The yellower they are, the more rosin there is in them. Rosin is not especially harmful; nor, on the other hand, is it of any particular value. But it 1s cheap, and that is why most manufac turers of naphtha soaps useit. The way to be sure to get full value for your moaey, when you buy naphtha soap, is to ask for P. G. Naph tha Soap—there is no rosin in it. 5 cents a cake: a all grocers. Clot 2

FOREIGN EXPERTS EAGERLY AWAITED [7 1 gp Arrival Tomorrow Expected to Give Impetus to Phthisis Congress.

MANY STOPPED OVER AT PHILADELPHIA i No Patients Yet Accepted to Prove Theories Advanced by Dr. Detre. The coming of the great body of for eign delegates to the International Congress on Tuberculosis, expected to arrive in Washington tomorrow from the international conference being held in Philadelphia, is being anticipated with great eagerness at the New National Museum. It is thought that the presence of the hundreds of distinguished spe cialists, centering the highest authori ties of the world, in Washington, will increase the attendance at the Con= gress until the halls and corridors will be erowded. coer i REET 00000 ae SE ff During the week comparatively few of the important figures of the congress have come to Washington, the great majority stopping off at Philadelphia to attend the sessions thers, the main business of which 1s to decide on where the next congress shall be held. To morrow these men will arrive in Wash ington by the score, and will give a de ciled impetus to the exhibit.

1 No Volunteers Chosen.

No patients have as vet been selected or accepted as volunteers for the test to prove the theory of diagnosis which is to be made by Dr. D. laszio Detre, of Budapest, next week. Dr. Percy G. Smigh, of the District Tuberculosis Hos pital, stated this morning that he will await the action of a conference, which is to be held either this evening or to morrow, before he takes any action to ward the selection of subjects among the patients at the hospital.

The greatest interest is being taken in the outcome of the tests by the dis tinguished scientists now at Philadel phia, and the importance of this test, althgugh the theory is not exactly a new one, cannot be overrated. If, as I Dr. Detre claims, the test will deter mine within twenty-four hours the na ture of the tuberculosis baeceill and the degree of virulence, it will be a good step forward in the battle on the dis PS ease, Rivairy Among Exhibitors. The exhibit is not Jacking in its amus ing features despite the deep seriousness of the subject, There is an undereyy rent of rivairy between the different rational and State exhibits, and several times this nivalry has manifesteq itself in petly outbreaks. Sp

jetween the representatives of two small European nations the feeling is so intense that they protested to Dr. Beyer, chairman of the committee on exibition, who had placed their ex hibits beside each other. They now have spacé in opposite ends of the building. There is also considerable rivairy between those in charge of the New York city exhibits and the New York State exhibit, Out in the court yard of the Museum building is a model dairy, set up by the New York State department of agricul ture. IL consists of a small cow parn, with concrete floor, and a small dairy building. Two magnificent bovine speci niens, 1uli-blocaed Holsteins, loaned by the Soldiers’ Home tor the exhibit, are al pasture in a small inclosure near A

luside the miniature cow barn pla cards are posted which are of particular interest to Washington, in view of the recent report of the board of physician: appointea 10 make an investigation o the c—auses of typhoid in the District and which recommended the pasteuriza tion of all milk sold In Washington. These placards read as follows: “Better to keep your food pure thar to try to purify it after it is contami nated.”

“Clean milk is conditioned upon cows free from tuberculosis, cleanliness, anc cold.”

G. P. 0. Exhibit Pleases.

The exhibit of the methods of pre veuling the spread of tuberculosis af the Government Printing Office, unde: the charge of Dr. W. G. Manning, sani tary inspector, is exciting a great deal of favorable comment among the for eign delegations. A number of them have expressed an intention of making an attempt te induce their own countries to install the system used at the print ing office, in their own government of fice s. Dr. Beyer, chairman of the ex hiiition committee, is enthusiastic over the system, which consists of the use of sanitary cuspidors, half filled with a 1-56000 solution ot bichloride of mer cury.

“I am astonishe: at the way in which municipalities, railroad companies, and others put up these signs prohibiting ex pectoration and then provide no means

MORE HOT SHOTS DUE FROM HEARST ow Politicians Now Believe Ed itor Will Keep Busy Un til Election Day.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.—That William R. Hearst is supplied with enough am munition to keep him in the public eye untii election day is the general verdict among politicians here today, after the way he went after leading lights in both the Republican and Democratic partics last night in his speech at the New York State convention of the Indepen: ¢nce party when he made further charges in the political-Standard Cl controversy. The following are his latest allegations:

Gov. C. N. Haskell was not only a Standard Oil Haskell but a Steel trust Haskell. Senator John L. McLaurin, of South Carolina, dickered for Standard Oll sub port to help him fight Tillman, Representative Sibley tipped John D. Archbold off to a Republican United States Senator’ whose friendship could be bought for a loan of $1,000. John DD. Archbold sought support for tha election to the United States Sen ate of Governor Fleming, of West Vir ginia. Supreme ‘Court Judge John P. El*in, of Pennsylvania, asked Standard Oil ald In a county fight. Plays No Favorites. Standard Oil buys both old parties, plays no favorites, ana plays to win, Sensational revelations had been ex pected and the convention was not d's appointed. Mr. Hearst at first reviewed briefly the work that has been going on for the past few weeks. Turning to New York State he de clared that Mr. Hughes throughout his term has served the privileged inter ests like the trained corporation lawyer that he is. Chanler he described as “pocket piece” of Charles Murphy, “rubbed smooth by Murphy's soiled thumb, and a political turnceat.” Among tha letters were “26 Proadway, Dec. 125, 1801. “My Dear Senator: I have your kind favor of yesterday.

Guffey, as a Standard Oil man had given the information to Mr. Hearst to expose Haskell. This was told te James Kerr, who had a conference witha Na tional Chairman Mack in this city. “How should I know?” was Mr. Kerr's answer when asked if he thought the report was true. It was pointed out that Guffey could have taken no more effective means of striking back at Haskell and Bryan to settle old scores for what happened at Denver than to have placed the informa tion at Hearst's disposal. Independent Party Names Its Candidates NEW YORK, Sept. 25.— After a session extending into the early hours of today, the following ticket was named by the State Independence party: Governor, Clarence J. Shearn, of New York; lieutenant governor, Daniel Fin nimore, of St. Lawrence; secrerary pf state, Frank H. Sievens. of Nassau; comptroller, Willard H. Glenn, of Onon daga; attorney general, William A. De Ford, of Albany; Htate treasurer, Dr. William I. Sircvich, of New York; State engineer and survevor, M. J, Cafiero, of Kings; associate justice of the court of appeals, Reuben R. Lyon, of Steuben. Haskell to See Bryan In Chicago Conference CHIMAGO, Sept. 26.—Governor Has kell, of Oklahoma, is on his way to Chicago to meet Candidate Willlam J. Bryan, Chairman Norman E. Mack, and a number of the members of the Demo cratic national committee. It is said he will be given an oppor tunity to disprove the charges that he is connected with Standard Ofl trans actions or asked bluntly to resign as treasurer of tne \committee, Haskell will arrive tonight, and the conference will take place tomorrow in the national committee rooms here. Follett Declares Bryan Wants Haskell Gusted TOLEDO. Ohio, Sept. 25.—A. D. Fol lett, former attorney of the Standard Oil when that corporation was being fought in Ohio, and a prominent Demo cratic State leader, is authority “or the statement that William J. Bry:n has assurred him that in the coursa of the next {ew days he will! ask Governor Haskell to resign the treasurership of the Democratic party and retie from the active campaign unless he can pro duce conclusive proof to the Peerless One that Roosevell and Hearst have been maligning him, Follett knows Haskell well, Follett had a jong private interview with Bryan at Delaware, and Insisted that Haskell be got out of the way at once; that he was hurting the chances of Bryan for election every hour that he remained on, and urged Bryan to take drastic action. Follett said To him: “Colonel, I think *khat your chances are being hurt by the continuance of Haskell ag treasurer of the national committee.” “Follett,¥ Bryan answered, “I, can't ask him to leave the committee now without 2 chance to exonerate himself on the charges filed, but I think that he should withdraw from the committee of his own free will—if he would step ‘out of the way until the charges are thoroughly probed, it would be, per haps, better.” Before the conversation ended, Bryan dictated long telegram to Haskell, telling im what Follett had informed ‘him, and Follett was promised in the interest of harmony and the Democratic party that Haskell would be asked to resign before the close of the week, unless he could explain by an immediate telegram some matters which had been ‘brought to Bryan's attention. Follett then JLffered to furnish Bryan with aifidavits to substantiate his state ‘ments, but Bryan informed him that ‘since being in Ohio enough evidence had come to him direct to demand Has kell’s retirement. Just before returning to his ome, Mr. Follett said: “Bryan promised me that Haskell would be removed fru: the national committee just as soun £3 he could de cide om his successor unless he could prove his innocence of the charges made to Bryan in Chio, and,” he added, “Has kell will never be able to do that. I really think he will resign without being asked to quit the committee. That would be the proper way for him to do.” FOLLETT SAYS BRYAN WANTS HASKELL OUT Democrats Declare Nebras kan Is Worried Over Re sult of Accusations. ee

(Continued from First Page.) Mack is reported to have beén con vinced that tkis move is absolutely necessary. The Democrats are praying that T. Coleman du Pont, head of the Repub lican speakers’ bureau, will be dropped bv the Republicans at the same time that Haskell goes. They say that would be a Republican Roland for a Demo cratic Oliver, and would even things up in most satisfactory fashion, leaving the main issues to be fought out by the President and Mr. Eryan. Wall Street Suggests New Song for Haskell From Wall Street comes the sugges tion that Governor Haskell, of Okla Loma, shall don his poetic robes once more and grind out something that will meke a stirring campalgn sc 1g to be sung to the refrain of “A iatle More Work for the Undertaker.” When, in the early hours of the morn ing William J. Bryan was, for the third time, nominated as the standard-bearer of the Democratic party it was Haskell, “Oklahoma” Haskell, who immediately won the title of poet laureate of the Democratic party, by promulgating a series of songs sung to the popular re frains, “The Star-Spangled Banner,” “There'll Be a Hot Time in the Olid Town Tonight,” “Hail Columbia,” “John Brown's Body,” and other ring ing, swinging airs. He gloritieq the “untrammeled West,” praised “purse Jeffersonian Dem. cracy.” put a crown or Bryan and then wired “touching” extracts from his various efforts to leading Democratic organs, to be used as inspiring rallying cries. Later on Poet Haskell, of Oklahoma, threw “the hooks” into Wall Street, condemning the .nethods of doing bu=t ness there, roasting capitalists and tak ing a fall out of “financial New York,” with which, reports says, ho has, in tines past, been perfectly fapdilar. yall Street forgave him when it was discovered that it was the hero of this topic, but if it forgave it did not forget, and, therefore, the cruel sugsestion of a -new campaign song to the Under taker’ refrain. It is even suggested that Haskell col laborate with Archbold on the verse.

FRIDAY EVENING, SEPT. 25, 1908. Mr. Bryan's Misfortune. 4 It is most unfortunate for Mr. Bryan that he has succeeded in stirring up 2dr. Theodore Roosevelt. There was a considerable period during which Mr. Roosevelt seemed earnestly disposed to keep out of the turbulent activities of this campaign. He seemed rather will ing to sit back and let em go it, so long as they didn't bother his quiet and contemplation.

But in an unfortunate moment he was disturbed, and now he is in the thick of the fight, laying about him as nobody else in politics can lay about when occasion demands.

i Mr. Bryan as the head of the Demo eratic party challenged Mr. Roosevelt, and took occasion to indicate that no body was going to be permitted to at tack the fundaments and the essential good faith of Democracy without meet ing resentment, so long as Democracy was under the leadership of Mr. Bryan. Of course, he roused all the fight there was in the Roosevelt blood, and the President’s excoriation of Haskell and Bryan resulted. i p————

g Nobody in polities is consistent with himself for a very long time. If men were consistent there would never be progress. Mr. Roosevelt hasn't always been consistent, and his party hasn't. Mr. Bryan, in fact, seems to be the most consistent man in the land. He has been consistent and uniform in his changeableness. He has not yet vio lated his rule of always having a new paramount issue when ver he appears before the public. In 1896 it was free silver, in 1900 it was imperialism, in 1808 it was Government ownership of the railroads, in July of this yaer it was “shall the people rule?” Now, ap parently, it is “how shall 1 get the votes, and everything else be hanged!”

a

s eT

Mr. Bryan never agreed with him self long enough to accomplish any harm for the country by enacting any of his numerous paramount proposals into law. As likely as not, if elected, he wouldn’t agree with himself long enough to make an effective fight for any of the fantastic proposals he is now espousing. But it is dangerous business to contemplate electing a Pres ident on any such ground as that he “wouldn’t have a chance to do much harm.” He would do too much. A

EE The President has supplemented most effectively the excellent analysis which Governor Hughes presented, of the ree ord of Mr. Bryan. He has made it apparent enough to the whole country that Mr. Bryan has been adapting the means to the end; that election to the Presidency was the end, and that the means would not be criticised so long as they promised to be effi cacious.

ile. ee a t k mi The scandal of Haskell must be ended very soon or it will end this campaign with a scandal. Haskell ought io get out of his position of trust, and permit himself to be investigated and exon erated—if indeed he thinks he has a chance to be exonerated at all—after the election. He is a drag on his party every hour he remains in his present position.

At the International Fisheries Con gress Secretary Straus diselosed his discovery that salt codfish is the basis of American civilization, a disclosure which will arouse discussion throughout the world, and, in particular, will ex cite the envy of such far inland locali ties as have long eked out the pre tense of subsistence without salt cod, because they hadn't heard of it. Salt, dry cod, however, being portable, inde structible, and imperishable, may travel anywhere. As Secretary Straus says, wherever it goes it carries with it a thirst, such as only those can appre .elate whose means permit them prop erly to slake it. The fact that fish is brain food need not be gone into at length, nor do we do more than Mr. Straus in merely cit fing it. That the achievements of the Pilgrim Fathers were, as he says, refer able to the fact that for two seasons after their arrival they were obliged to subsist upon cod, we may cheerfully admit. But his statement that ali Americans are divisible into two classes, namely, those who are descended from the Pilgrim Fathers and those who pre tend to be, appears open to criticism. There ought, we maintain, to be room somewhere in ethnologly for the third class of Americans, namely, those who were born with a spontaneous internal, self-generating thirst—of whicH sort specimens may occasionally be met with in Washington, even while the fisheries congress is in session—and who disclaim the slightest connection between their thirsts and any ances. tral and artificial appetites due to pri salt cod induction. A scientific tracing of ‘thirsts is prob. 8

As a fair conclusion, such a one is entitled to be in a class by himself— or, counting Mr. Straus’ two, why not let him be of the third class?

RE ei “Among the debtors to the Distriet are men of wealth and prominence, and no reasonable excuse can be offered by them for failing to pay their obliga tions.” These are the words of a responsible official of our local government. They are written in connection with a state ment that this year the effort to collect the personal taxes due the District shall exhaust all the resources of the law. They come from the Collector himself, Charles C. Rogers, and are in so far a justification for his appointment. The need for energy in behalf of the District will be plain from these totals of uncollected personal tax accounts: In 1903, 600 accounts, representing $4,983.96. In 1904, 600 accounts, representing $3,880.83. In 1905, 750 accounts, representing $4,086.02. 1906, 1,100 accounts, representing $11.555.01. In 1907, 2,000 accounts, representing $20,672 15. To which must now be added a total of 15,080 accounts for the current year, representing about $863,882. It is time fo hustle. The War Department is preparing to print a new cook book for the troops in garrison and in field service. This announcement should «reate no excite ment, but the direct consequences might follow fast on this latest caper of the department. A book of the kind was issued in 1896 for use of the forces. It was such a good book, with so many toothsome recipes, that there was a considerable demand from civilian sources for it, and there are few left now. It was popu lar with the soldiers. But the disap pearance of the book is not the reason a new one is to be issued. Alas, for the defenders of the flag, who have a tofore led a Lucullan existence! Some of the dietectic experts in the department recently made the horrify ing discovery that the old cook book contained things too rich for common soldiers. It was discovered the pub lication gave some twenty recipes for boiling beans, and a score or more wavs of disguising hardtack, while the metu ods of preparing cofiee had a dangerous tendency to make the rank and file apoplectic. It was set forth at length in this dangerous volume how to.fry bacon so that it could hardly be dis tinguished from porterhouse, and ways were shown to deceive the simple pri vate into thinking tomato soup terra pin or turtle. Alarmed by the Sybaritic tendencies of the army messes, due to the recipes in this terrible publication, the depart ‘ment is now preparing to issue the new covk book, in which stress will be laid particularly on simplifying the methods of preparing the favorite dishes of the warrior. Hereafter beans will be beans, bacon bacon, hardtack will not have any frills on it, and not more than two spoonsful of sugar will be allowed to one cup of coffee. “In one time and two motions,” says a contemporary, “Oyster Bay now re tires into its hole, and Washington shakes off its mothbhalls.” Moths are not so troublesome, down here, Gentle Neighbor, as the bugs which even the summer can't keep from coming from other cities. The Prohibitionists even seem to be a little critical of the drouth. A h0e rrTolloiuOiiasSis even sedin oo we a little critical of the drouth.

Hurry Up Calls Come to G. O. P. Headquarters From Kansas, Indiana, and Ohio. NEW YORK, Bept. .—Kansas, Indi ana, and Ohio are sending hurry calls to the trouble clerk at Republican head quarters, Chairman Hitchcock went West at the end of last week, expecting to spend Monday and Tuesday in Chicago and get back here Wednesday. PEut he con ciuded, after looking into matters in the West, to remain longer, so as to have a session with Mr. Taft in Chicago before coming East again. Word comes from the Windy City that conditions in the Middle West are not what Mr. Hitch cock would like them to be, and that more attention is to be given to the campaign out there. The disposition now is to concede that the Republicans will lose their State ticket in Indiana. They have not given up the Legislative ticket by any means, because the State Is gerrymandered in favor of the Republicans so as to make them much stronger in the Legislative than in the State-wide fight. Governor Hanly did mess up things in most in excusable fashion when he called the special session of the Legislature to exact a county local option act, right in the midst of the Presidential cam paign. No Political Sense. The governor is declared by the pol fticians to be a nice man, who doubt less has the courage of his convictions; but they refuse absolutely to concede that he has any political sense. It is declarea that if the countyop tion law passes, it will weaken the Re publicans with the Illberal element, which wants a township option act; if it falls to pass, the Republicans will be weakened with the temperance peo ple, because the Legislature now in ses sion is Republican, and the presump tion is that the Republican State con vention having declared for the county cption plan, a Republican Legislature should carry out that pledge. There are a few Republicans who op pose the county option idea, and like wise a few Democrats who favor. it So the situation is uncertain and tie outcome doubtful. Senator Hemenway is badly worried about the complexion of the Legislature to be chosen in No vember, and on which he must rely for re-election to the upper house. Await Tide's Turning. The Indiana organization is working hard and the national managers are doing everything possible to help. The Republicans are watching anxiously for evidences of a turning in the tide, it is due, if the experience of former Bryan campaigns is to be repeated this year. There is an {mpression that it has In fact set in the East. New York Republicans had a very bad scare last week about this State. They have been recovering from the panic since Mr. Bryan left the State, and they have had time to take account of stock; but they ars by no means confident yet. Chairman Conners of the Democraiic State committee confidently claims ne will carry the State for both Bryan and the Democratic State ticket. The story that Hill and Murphy both talked te Chairman Mack on the same day, and that M. E. Ingalls came with good Democratic news from Ohio, jollied the Democrats a good deal. But down at the bottom is the solid fect that mighty few people are willing TH -_—_—_—N_—_— —_—_——__ ____~—_—~__—_—_ _—__— T_T TT _ _ YY rr TN fT TTT FF TF HT TH HT HE TH TH HHT TT TF YT haa

BRANDS ROOSEVELT AS A FALSIFIER In Speech Last Night, Creed M. Fulton Made Attack on President. President Roosevelt was charged with untruthfulness and with allowing cor poration contributions to the cambaign fund for his elegtion fcur years ago, in an attack on him made last night by Creed M. Fulton, a Virginia atiorney, addressing the District Democratic Club. Nut only was the President attacked for his alleged defamation of the Demo cratic party, but he was directly ac cused of knowing that Judge Alton BE. Farker's charge that there was corpor ation money in the Republican cam paign fund, was true when he denied it. “Four years ago,” said Fulton, “Judge Parker charged that the great <orpora tions of the country were contributing immense sums to the Republican cam paign fund to elect Mr. Rocsevelt Pres ident. Mr. Roosevelt demanded that Judge Parker produce the proof. He knew when he wrote the letter that Judge Parker could not get conclusive evidence before election day. 1 charge he took advantage cf the man's posi tlon at the time, knowing when he took it that Judge Parker had told the (ruth. “lt was proved that the ~orporations had contributed something like $150,000 to the Republican campaign fund; it de veloped that Mr. Harriman, one of the biggest corporation men in the country, after a conference with Mr. Roosevelt, raised $265,000 and turned it over 10 M~. Cortelyou, Mr. Roosevelt's manager. Did the President kick Mr. Cortelyou out? He picked him up and put him at the head of one of the greatest depart ments of the Government. Hitchcock, who was particeps crimiris to the affair. and Mr. Corielyou’s secretary, was made Assistant Postmaster, General, and he now is at toe head of the Repub liean cambpaien.” CHICAGO, Sept. 25.—Although for two weeks tenants of the Hampden apart ments, Thirty-ninth street and Lengley avenue, have been protesting that the elevators in the building were unsafe, their protests were unable to prevent a fatal accident. 2 Curtis Nefroe, operator of the eleva tor, was killed. He was attempting to shut the door to the cage on the fifth door and his head projected through the opening when the elevator suddenly plunged downward. His head was caugit between the roof of the car and the sill of the door. Death was in stantaneous. THE WASHINGTON TIMES, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1908.

ELEVATOR DROPS; OPERATOR KILLED AGNUS CHEERS PKESIDENT. Gen. Felix Agnus, editor and pro prietor of the Baltimore American, in formed the President today that Mary land would give Taft a plurality of at least 25,000, if not reaching the figure of 37,000, whieh it gave McKinley. The President told General Agaus that he was convinced Taft would carry as i

It is still three to one or four to one in the bet ting. There is some Democratic money in the market at these figures; that is, money to bet on genral rsults. Wants Long Odds. Bill Thompson, the boss of South Jer sey, who has money to burn and at times has burned stacks of it in elec tion bets, is reported to have sent a $25,000 credit to town to be bet on gen eral results. But it turned out that he is looking for long odds, and doesn’t yet care to bet at anything like civilized terms. That's the way with the rest of ‘em. They certainly are making a ood deal of noise t sounds like ryan; but they don't make it with their money. The Ohio reports to national Republi can headquarters are the most remark able received of late. The Ohio leaders are worse frightened than they were before the Foraker exposure. All tne proguosticators took it for granted that he Foriker explosion would blow a big rock out of the Taft channel jn Ohio. But now that it is over and the echoes are dying down, the Buckeyes are call Ing for help and declaring that chars has struck their organization. They don’t know where they stand, and can't learn. Many Doubtful Voters. Another thing which points to the West as being still the center of low barometer, is the fact that the returns from the polls of the close States, which are beginning to come in, indicate a tre mendous proportion of doubtful voters. This is true of Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, lowa, Nebraska, Kansas, the Dakotas and Minnesota. So far as pos sible, in making this poll, the effort has been to locate those who will vote either ticket, thnse who are in doubt, and those who will give no expression. Of those who are in doubt, the tendgncy toward one party or the other is indi cated In all cases where it is possible. The authorities have been concerned deeply about the number of doubtful voters reported. It is abnormally and menacingly large. It is =o large that the general opinion aboit headquarters is that the decisions which will control the result of the polling are ver to be reached by the individual voters. That is, it is believed that the turning of the balance one way or the other will be decided by the people who have not yet thrown thelr weight into either scale. Which wav will they go? That is the question. The developments of the cam paign will determine. In any case, ma Jorities in the whole middle Western group are certaln to he scaled down very greatly. Republicans Have Best of It. But one the face of the mathematics the Republicans still have the better of it. It requires a movement little short of revolution to elect Mr. Bryan. If Mr. Taft carries New ‘York he is the prob able winner; almost the certain winner, It is inconceivable that ‘he sentiment of two sections of the country has devel oped so far in digmetrically opposite directions—that Mr. Bryan might lose New York and still save his election at the West. Democratic confidence has to be adis counted a good deal. The Democrats are entitlad to feel cheerful whenever they get in sight of a fighting chance to win. They are there, and they feel good over it. But the figur-s are against them thus far. Everything now is conceded to depend on the developments in the great duel between Bryan and Roosevelt. All the other actors in the managerial drama have been crowded back toward the wings. These two stars are going 10 tak¢ the bludgeons and do a stunt in big stick work which will make the rest of the show forget it's on the stage at all. FALLS THREE STORIES.

K nkovitz “dunned’” Rouse repeatedly and. accord ing to Konkovitz, Rous refused te pay. So Konkovitz got up bright and early ene morning and tied Rous to the bed securely. Then the creditor fastened a piece of heavy twine to one of Rous’ Isrgest teeth and pulied gently. Rous yelled. Then Konkovitz gradaslly ir creased the strain for half an hour, at the end of which time the tooth gave way and came out, roots and all. The vietim’'s jaw was lacerated tadly and his face was swollen. Instead of paving his torturer the $40, Rous has sworn out a warrant charg ing assault and battery. OFFICERS BEGIN SECOND DAY'S RIDE Pleasant Night Spent in Camp in Virginia Woods —Ambu lance Is Following. After comfortable night's camp In the Virginia woods, about seven miles southwest of Herndon, the cavalcade of army officers from the War Department who are out on a practice ride under the leadership of Major General Duvall, started on the second leg of their trip through the Fairfax county hills early this morning. Apparently every one of the thirty-five officers who started out was much refreshed by a night's sleep in the open, As usual, the ambulance of the Fort Myer Field Hospital trailed the proces sion. Today's ride will swing the officers ‘around a big circle, and bring them back to Fairfax Court House, where they will probably pitch camp, prepa ratory to the ride into Washington to morrow morning. A party of enlisted men is preceding the officers and max ing everything comfortable in the tem: porary camps. The officers are not en cumbereq with any baggage whats. ever, all camp paraphernalia being ¢car ried by the enlisted men. General Grant during the early part of the civil war as a lieutenant, occu pled this historic mansion for twenty years, and it is only recently that it has changed hands. “This old Grant mansion is as pic turesque as it is historic. Two acres or more of land belong to the place, and the house itself is surround by pines, cedars, maples, flowers, vines, and shrubbery, where the breezes of sum mer and the keen blasts of winter play hide-and-seek. “Two hundred and fifty feet above the level of the Potemac river, from here MISS TAFT ON A VISIT TO CONNECTICUT FRIEND dr Daughter of Republican Nominee Guest of Miss Eleanor Roelker, at East Greenwich—Roosevelts Entertain at Theater.

Paid to Make a Home.

“Being paid to make a home for a man sounds unusual, doesn't it?” said Miss Lewis to me. “But that is our work and it is the most absorbing, most fascinating work in the world. We have our own staff of mechanics and usually, when we go into a house or an apart ment, we take our little army of build ers. Sometimes it is necessary to tear out a good rt of the interior. We re modeled r. and Mrs. Faversham's home while they were abroad last sum mer, adding a new room. Every con sideration that may contribute to the whole picture has to be taken in mind. Of course, we desi everything and leave the mechanical work to the men, but in many instances it is necessary for Mrs. Muchmore and me to do the actual work ourselves. There are So many things in the ordinary principle of interior decoration that cannot be done by a man, anyway,” Miss Lewis said with a smile.

Mrs. Muchmore shares Miss Lewis’ enthusiasm about her work and about both women there is an air of get-up and-go-at-it. You feel as if you must hustle when in their presence, they are both so wide awake.

wm Is a Science Abroad. “In Europe,” Mrs. Muchmore said “interior decorating among women art isfs is a well established and far ad vanced science. The women artists of the old country have made this worl a wonderful tribute to their usefulnes: and artistic senses. While there are many decoraters in America, they can not compare in number with those o Europe, but they are shoulder to should er with them in everything else. You cannot imagine the extreme satisfactior of working on an apartment, studying out color schemes, selecting furniture decorations, pictures and what not, anc then see the results of your work star ing at you in a perfect blaze of satis faction. It all means untiring work anc late hours, but it pays in the end t« see the lendid, satisfying results.

Miss Nash laughingly told them that while they were given three days in which to make the ride, she could do it in half the time. Miss Nash came to Washington Sunday afternoon, and every could spare has been spent in the saddle.

THE WASHINGTON TIMES, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1908. 7 a BEAUTIFUL HAIR ADVICE TO WOMEN ON RESTING WELL Do Not Eat Heartily When Tired, and Eat Slowly. Women should not eat heartily when they are tired, unless they are seeking for dyspepsia. A good way to over come fatigue is to take oi’ the gown, take out the hairpins, ana take off the shoes. Brush the hair for a few minutes and pin it up loosely, but not in the gsame place where it is usually worn. Wash the face and neck in very hot water and press the cloth, as hot as it can be borne, to the back of the neck and over the eyes. Wher the hot water has relaxed the tense, tired muscles somewhat, dash cold water, with toilet vinegar or cologne In it, over the face and neck. Then lle down for fifteen minutes. Keep the eyes closed and the mind a ‘blank as far as possible. Then drink a cup of hot water or weak tea. Pu on a fresh gown, and, unless the weari ness is unusual, the most rested sensa tion will follow.

It developed today that the presence Is Washington of representatives of both the Swisher and Scherr factions of West Virginia, was not entirely a coin tidence, nor were their conferences with the President solely for the purpose of assuring Mr. Roosevelt that factional differences had been settled by the se lection of W.

GOLD DUST will sterilize your kitchen things and make them wholesome and sanitary GOLD DUST does more than clean—it sterilizes and leaves your kitchen things sani tarily safe. The ordinary soap-washed utensil 1s not fit to eat from, because soap does not cleanse as thoroughly as it should—does not kill germs of decay which are bound to lurk in oft-used utensils. Besidesits cleansing virtues, GOLD DUST has the merit of doing work quickly, and saving your strength. It will do most of the cleaning without your Ye ECAR assistance and do it, SME too, in a quicker and RAR more thorough manner than will soap or any other cleanser.

Condemnation of Land Wanted by Government Be fore Special Session. SN i

wil

MANY ARE SUMMONED TO APPEAR IN COURT Special Jury Will Be Appointed to Hear Evidence as to Values.

i

Condemration proceedings to Ix the price which the Government shall pay for the properties in the great tract of land bounded by Pennsylvania avenue, Fcurteenth street, the Mall, and Fif teenth street have reached the point where they are now in charge of the Supreme Court of the District of Co lumbia, holding a special session as a District Court, Chief Justice Clabaugh presiding. i

i

The matter will be taken up in court for the first time next Thursday, Octo ber 1. The property owners, the occu pants of the properties, and even the representatives of incumbrances there on, have been summoned to appear in court on that day to answer to the Gov ernment’s petition ‘to have the proper ties condemned. /Citations have been issued to more than 250 persons or es tates to appear. These own, occupy, or have an interest in the properties in cluded in zil of the five squares num bered 226 to 220. inclusive. 1

Official Vindication. The citations give official verification to previous reports that the land is to be used for new buildings for the De partments of State, Justice, and Com merce and Labor. In the proceedings, the Government will be represented by the office of Dis trict Attorney D. W. Baker. A special jury of three men will be appointed to hear the evidence as to values, the court having exclusive power in mak ing the appointments. District Attorney Baker has had a number of names suggested to him for the jury, and will ‘Submit these to the court without mak ing recommendation as to who shall be chosen. A number of the names are those of attorneys interested in the properties on behalf of clients and others are of men supposedly favorable to the Government.

._ a. Lh is a 4 2 dh a SHH er

It is understood that both sides will be represented on the jury, the third man to be an impartial real estate expert. As the case will come up in! a few days, the Government has ap pointed no officlal appraisers to report to it, and the question of whether any will be appointed to examine the prop erty and testify before the court, re mains to be determined during the pro ceedings.

i

i If the condemnation proceedings are held over after the case is called next Thursday, and are not taken up by Chief Justice Clabaugh before the fol lowing Tuesday, when a new term be gine, they will then go before the Dis trict Court of Appeals.

i

Interest Widespread. On account of the large size of the properties in the aggregate and the number of p.rsons invalved, and be cause of the purpose to erect new buildings for three departments, in terest in the proceedings is widespread. Names which have been suggested for service on the specia! jury have not been announced officially, but it is re

Smacked of Fancy Prices. Assistant Secreiary of the Treasury Winthrop had charge of the matter of the proposed sites for new buildings up to a few weeks ago. Two owners had ben invited to submit estimates as to what they believed their properties to be worth, but as the figures sent in by the comparative few who responded, smacked very strongly of fancy prices, it was decided to institute the condem nation proceedings. The Attorney Gen eral of the United States was asked by the Treasury Department to take the necessary action, and he in turn reqeusted the District Attorney to take charge of the matter. The last named official now has entire charge for the

Fur. thermore, to judge by his attitude In the matter, the question of Mr. Chung's succession Joes not seem to be bother ing the minister.

if the Chinese government has taken it imo its head to change its minister al Washington it has done $5, not enly without consulting Mr. Wu in the mat ter, but has not even notified him that he is to go home. “Yes, the usual procedure in such matters to notif y the diplomat in question,” ns sald, “but I have received no notice of a contemplated change in any way. I have seen the papers, of course, and these reports interest me, but one gets used to them after a while.

That was ‘he rea son I came back—bacause I like the place. Washington is such a clean city,” the minister mused, and then, with a twinkle in his eye, “but every body likes his own country best.

GAPITAL GOLFERS WANT WIDER SCOPE 10

May Compete for Famous Robert Lesley Trophy After This Year. BRITTON SELECTED TO ESPOUSE CAUSE Chevy Chase Official Will Present Middle Atlantic's Case to Na tional Association.

4 Et Fag 1

There Is a movement on foot to in crease the scope of the inter-city golf competition for the Robert Lesley cup, and unless present plans go astray, the conditions governing this affair will be changed after this year.

ri at S—————— Ct 400 ho RR A A A RO i. rr Mts uu ...........ccoeeeea 200 b x Iw As golfers generally know, the Lesley trophy of late years has been played for annually between teams represent ing the Philadelphia, Boston, and Met ropolitan Golf Associations, while orig inally only the Quaker City and New York forces were arrayed against each other.

4 i £4 3 R "3 ST et g A) ye I As the matter now stands, the Middle Atlantic Golf Association has become ambitious to get in the game. This or ganization embraces Washington, Bal timore, and Wilmington, localities where the royal sport has taken a strong hold of late. Alexander Britton, of the Chevy Chase Club, of this city, who is also a member of the United States Golf Association executive com mittee, has started to work the project up in the interest of the Middle Atlantic Association, and while nothing can be done to change present conditions for this year's inter-city contest, it seems highly probable that a new arrange ment will be brought about for 1909.

OWS... In discussing the proposed plan Mr. Britton gave it as his opinion that with four teams competing, the annual event could be made more interesting. It would then give three of the four teams a chance for two full days of play. AS it is now, the champion team—that is, the holder of the trophy—stands out the first day, while the other two struggle for the right to challenge the holder. With four teams competing a semi-final round could be run off on the first day with the winners, of course, meeting in the final on the next.

Another angle to the inter-city affair is the revival of the old suggestion, made several years ago, to have all of Pennsylvaniy included in the Philadel phia territory. Pittsburg in Line. X A prominent Pittsburg player, in dis cussing this project at Garden City, said hie had never heard of the Pitts burg section bejng approached on the subject, but he did not hesitate to say that in his opinion the Pittsburg golfers would be glad to co-operate with the Philadelphians, provided the latter so desired. It has been suggested that the best way to bring about such a cem biration would be to form a Pennsyl vania State Golf Association.

Yesterday's Results.

Todav’s Standing. ALEXANDER BRITTON The Gallaudet football team breaks into the season tomorrow when they line up against the strong Central Hign School team. The Gallaudet squad this vear is light, but fast, and Coach Reiter predicts that it will dev:lop into a classy team by the time cool weather sets in. The team is handicapped by the loss of Quarterback O'Donnell, of last year, who sustained an injury to his knee, and the graduation of Sharpe. Sharpe created quite a sensation In the city last season by his aggressive tactics and the school feels his loss severely. The team will be comprised largely of Azst year's players. One new man has shown up who looks good to the caach. He is Aras, and hails from Ohio. Opposed to them the Mutes will have a formidable line of men. Central Is working for the scholastic champion ship this yehr, and has so far developed a husky line. Three promising men have joined the 2nks of the team and if trained right should make svaluabie linemen. They are Sinclair, 170 pounds, who plaved fullback with the Hopkins Prep School, and Bailey, a 180-pound center from Charlotte, N. C. Perkins will also be in the line-up after an absence from the school of three years. Among the other men who have re turned are Captain NrcKeever, McDon old, Kennedy, Spransy, Howard, Lan caster, and Wilson. At a meeting of the team at the school the plays were gone over and fully {illustrated on the blackboard. This, Captain McKeever says, will be a weekly occurrence.

He gave special work to Murphy, Phil bin, and Daly yesterday two of whom will be the regular halfbacks this fall, and then criticised the work of the others during the scrimmage.

No game is scheduled for today, but a double bill is promised for tomerrow, it was a case of the well-known “lucky seventh” for the Columbians. Six runs in the seventh after being held in check for six innings, was more than the elub boys expected. Torney, the first man up for Treasury, with two strikes against him, made a pretty single over second and the small crowd of loyal “money counters” gave him the glad hand. ‘“Baggie’”” Bagget started the trouble for the money counters in the seventh when! he made a clean single over first after being sent to bat for Lay. “Dutch” Kinney's batting was one of the features of the game. A triple, a brace of singles and a long fly was a good day's work. Gallagher pitched another steady game keeping the hits well scattered a issuing a pass in the seven MRA Hester also pitched well until that dis astrous seventh, when five hits, two bases on balls and several bad miscues netted Columbia six runs. Columbia executed two fast double plays, Mullen and Clear figuring in both. Taylor made a beautiful catch of Ble laski's fly over second, capturing the balloon on the dead run fpom deep cen ter. Bielagski made a clever stop of As quith’s wild heave in the third. when he leaped into the air and stopped the ball with his left hand and naiied®Taylor, who tried to stretch his hit to left into to dounle. Nationals’ Victory Over Cleveland Turns an Unexpected Angle on Delehanty’s Case.

How! Due From Naps, Already Disgruntied at Failure to Play Del in Chicago—Tigers Fast Losing Ground.

Delehanty did not play in Cleveland yesterda:, nor did Washington forfeit the game. Score: Nationals, 2; Cleve land, 1, A more dramatic nemesis effect has not been pulled off in the American League since John Arderson, who opined that Cantillon thought him too oid and feebie for major league ball, Jumped the club and came around these parts with the Sox on three occasions and won the game each time.

Shipke was back in the game for a while, and he and Unglaub aiternated "i a the third sack. Pickering was sta oned at right field. Also most everyone in Nap-:own no ticed that George McBride played at short. Every few minutes or so George would break into the limelight whi some heroic stunt which brought ou: groans from the grandstand, whic means cheers had he been in his ncn town, Three times did McBride retir: Goode, that hard-hitting gardener wh may some day learn how to field. One of these occasions fave George a. fine chance to pull off a circus piay when he reached out far and wide and bagged a likely looking single. Thé shortstop also tapped out a single on his own ac count and scored one of he Nationals’ runs, H

i Jerry Freeman, according to reports from the front, also distinguished him sell by some unusual agility. It always seems to surprise correspond: nts around the circuit when Jerry produces results after ambling around in that gurious hop-skip-and-jump fashion of his. It is hard 0 convince the publi: that our first sacker is strong on speed ard as nimble as a gazelle, hence the frequent repetition of this important lesson. Shipke, with all his cat-liks cleverness and quickness, rounded out an infield which seemed to conspire to wreak ven geance on those horrid Naps for instj gating the banishment ot their old pal Delehanty. Walter Johnson has been the siar of 50 many games this season that it is bard to dwell on his good points, and not say the same things all over. He came withir nailing distance of getting his name in the book of records again y.:= terday. The second inning, in ach Cleveland scored its only run, was the only session in which a Nap reached first. The Idahoan fanned nine, and ihe rest were =asy outs. He zllowed but three hits. 4 The Nationals scored in the second. Clymer walked, and singles bv Picker Ing and Freeman sent him across the plate. McBride opened fire in the fifth with a single. Street flied“to Goode. The runner took second on a passed ball, and Milan drove a single behind Lajoie, scoring McBride. e Naps were by no means off the Job. They played a splendid game in the field and even the young hero Goode, whose batting alone has here tofore extenuated his fielding defi ciencies, pulled off one sensational stunt all his own when he bagged Street's “But the best feature of the skir mish from Washington's standpoint was the timely hitting of Cantillon’s eraw. Liebhardt had all his accustomed speed and a full allotment of his puzzliag! benders, but the Nationals connected with pleasing regularity. It will be interesting to note the howl that is sure to come from the Cleveland papers. Each and every one religiously set up a long and loud wall when Cantillon failed to play Delehan.y in the Chicago series and threw tne harpoon into him when he put Del back into the game at St. Louis. Now is an excellent chance to twist said harpoon unmercifuliy. The victory yesterday is also something of a slap at Ban Johnson. Had the Nationals won in the other cities and lost at Cleveland through the absence of our leading hitter, St. Louis, Detroit, and Chicago would have struck up one long and loud anvil chorus. That the Cantillonites should lose in, the other cities and trounce Cleveland is unex pected and puts a new angle on the oa Last year vas considered a gala sea son for fandom because of the unusual ly close race in the American League.

Fm a NEW YORK, Sept. 25.—Today's mar ket lacked the virile force so evident in Yesterday's trading. It was a rather insipid, waiting market, with price changes generally within a slight range and everyone waiting for developments that at least until well into the after noon hag not materialized.

If there has been a distribution of a large amount of clique stock on the higher prices of last week, must also be admitted that the sellers have 1ehabilitated their stock lines on a low er basis, and the natural trend will be 10 advance values against another pe Tioa of liquidation between .now and election day. spr——————— =x ee

o Opening Was Irregular.

At the immediate opening the market was very irregular, Reading, Union Pa cific, and Southern Pacific, the “big 3,” were to the fore as if starting off for another day's movement, but the Hill hares and some other rails, Atchison, Eries, and a few others, were laggards. The three leaders moved up 3% to a pom and then the weight of the Hills and lack of buying in support of the market or covering by shorts brought a reaction, the gains being lost, and in the stocks that barely held their own at the opening there were losses of

i

1 er I i 3. Smelters lost 114, Erie 1%, Great Northern 3¢.

The down turn was followed before the middle of the second hour by an up turn, and then passing into the after oon the trading became less, and the market settled down to a slow, tedious affalr.

There were exceptions. Smelter ral lied very sirongly, and advanced to $5, a okt net gain. Louisville and Nash ville rallied a point, Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western 9 points, and Lead -8. ennsylvania was 7% off, Northwestern and very many stocks on the list

bout noon Great Northern and Northern Pacific surprised the Street and disappointed the bears, who were waiting for a slump. with a decidedly firm tone, which ripened during the next sixty minutes into an advanee on the former of 13 from the low of the morning and a full paint above Thurs day’s closing. Nipper rose from 1331; to 135%, and both stocks showed a dis position to move higher. There was no explanation of this change of front, unless these securities were being taken in hand for the purpose of giving the needed backbone to the whole list. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western slumped back for a loss of 14 Fotay instead of the morning gain of 9. 1

Market Tone Firm. Passing into the second hour of the afternoon there was a better tone all through the list, and most of the stocks showed some improvement. Smelter sold 10 86, and this ex-dividend. Steels were 2; better and the entire market, while dull, presented a firm front to the bears, who waited anxiously for a break. Rock Island, on which a Harriman-Gould war was predicted, acted beautifully, going up 1 to 1% points, despite the antagon istic reports. Everybody seemed to be looking for a reaction of fair propor tions, and as the day waned the chances apneared to grow beautifully less, some shorts hurrying to cover, and some mod erately good buying being discovered here and there.

In order to give Washingtonians a fair chance to carry off some of the prize money the association provided many classes for which local horses should be eligible, but interest among the lovers of the horse in this city has been stirred up to such an extent, that the managers of the show determined to provide extra events peculiarly suited to local ani mals. One of these classes, it is expected, will prove very popular with owners of fast horses. This ig the event for the best speedway stallion, mare, or gelding, to be shown in trot or pace to a four wheeled vehicle on the track. Confor mation, style, and quality will count 25 per cent in judging the horses, and the general way of going, 15, per cent, while “we speed developed will count 60 per Cf. Speedway Champion. Thnis will give the owners of some of the Washington speedway horses an op portunity to have their animals ap praised by men of long experience, and in a way will determine the champion of the speedway, which has always been a debatable question. As there are scores of men who patrenize the speed way, it is certain the entries for this Class will be many. The first prize for this event will be a handsome silver cup offered by a leading merchant of the city. A class for runabout horses exceeding fourteen hands, the first prize in which will be a silver cup, and the second and third ribbons, it is believed will prove popular among society women, while the class for the best saddle horse owned in the District is sure to attract a big list of entries. The conditions of this class provided for horses of any age and height, to he shown at walk, trot, and canter, conformation, quality, and manners to be considered. The first prize will be a silver cup, and the second and third ribbons. More Trophies Offered. The fact that the “managers of the exhibition are providing so many events for which locally-owned horses only are eligible, has argused the interest of business men, and the association has received letters from many of the lead ing merchants, offering to present addi tional prizes in the way of silver tro phiss. The racing program to be run off every afternoon during horse show week, is so liberal that horsemen from many sections have announced their intention of participating. General Townes, who will have charge of this end of the horse show, has spent much of his time at the Benning course getting the track in condition for the races. He reports that the course will be in fine shape for the meeting. The stables of several horse men already are at the track and appli cations for stable room have been re ceived for more than 4% racers. t NO COMPLAINT MADE TO COMMISSIONERS Nothing Known of Any Assessment of Federal Employes for Camnpaien Fund So far as the Civil Service Commis sioners know, there is no foundation for the report that the Federal employes in Atlanta, Ga., or elsewhere have been assessed 15 per cent of their salaries for campaign purposes. No complaints, the commission said today, have been re ceived from Atlanta. Regarding campaign contributions, it was said at the commission, that clerks have a right to contribute to the cam paign fund, if they so desire, but it is a violation of the law for any Federal employe to ask a fellow employe to contribute, or for any member of a campaign committee to solicit a contri bution from a Federal employe in a Government building by word of mouth or by mail. But if a member of a cam paign committee calls at the home of a Federal employe or sends a letter to the home of the employe, soliciting a contribution for election purposes, iv is not a violation of ¢he law. The successful prosecutions by the commission of persons who have violat ed the law by sending letters to Federal employes at their offices, asking for contributions for the campaign, have put A damper on political committees, and not in months has the commission Teceiveq any complaints of this charae ro Be TRUE LOVE DEFEATS PARENT'S STERN HAND Irate Father Arrives in Washington Just Too Late to Prevent Daughter's Marriage. Back of the marriage of Miss Annie Sheffley to John Chinn, of 407 Eleventh street northwest, les a little story of the romantic attachment of youthful lovers, the flight of the young woman from the parental home in Vienna, Va., to meet her husband-to-be in Washing ten, an irate father in hot pursuit, and an ending with “Bless you, my chil dren,” and everybody happy all around. The couple had been lovers from child hood, but the parents frowned on the attachment because of the youth of the ir. The lovers were not deterred by a ttle thing like that, so Miss Sheffley boarded a train unknown to her parents in Vienna, and was soon speeding to ward Washington, where Mr. Chinn anxiously awaited her. Her father, who is one of Vienna's leading business men, followed on the next train, but when he arrived here Tuesday he could not find either his daughter or Mr. Chinn. He finally located them, yesterday, at 940 E street northwest, just as the words that united them were spoken by the Samuel Green.

DR ABRAHAM JACOBI, In the ranks of the tuberculosis fighters of America there is no more distinguished figure than Abraham Jacobi, of New York, the friend and comrade of the late Carl! Schurz. Coming to this country a fugitive from th wrath of the German government, in 1853, he soon made a name for him self as a specialist in diseases of chil dren, and today no physician has a higher place in that line. He and Carl Schurz were together in the retvolu tionary movement in Germany, and while Schurz got away and to America, Dr. Jacobi was caught and thrown into prison charged with high treason. He laughs about that now, ‘but a shade comes over his face when he tainks of his friend who recently crossed to the great beyond. “They got me,” he says,
