THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1900. PLAGETABOO TAINTED MONEY Bryan's Penalty for Men Who Grow Rich by Violating Obligation. STANDS FOR INCOME TAX Proposes to Amend Constitution so That Xo Judge Can Misunder stand Says Good Word for Philippine Government. WICHITA. Kan., .Oct.- 9 W. J. Bryan made six speeches here today, being accorded a great reception by members of all parties. Five thousand persons heard him tonight in the Coliseum at Wonderland Park. He de clared that he was more interested in the uccess of the political Ideas which he had been advocating than in fur thering his own candiducy for any office. "The people of this country have for a generation paid too much hom age to men with money," he said. "But a cliangt la now taking place." As evidence of tills he cited the con troversy in & missionary council over the question of accepting a donation from John D. Rockefeller. "Hereto fore toe object has seemed! so good that churches and schools have been glad to accept such funds and ask no questions. The discussion arising re cently indicates that the time is com ing when the unlustly rich man must spend his money himself. I will be glad to ee tiiat diiy. I shall rejoice when it becomes the custom to say to the rich man, who thus tries to ease his conscience and to buy the good will of his fellow men: " 'No, you got your money by vio lating your obligation to be Just and humane to the poor and you may now keep it to learn how poor in the man who has nothing but money.'" Mr. Bryan then elaborated upon his well-known ideas against government by injunction and in favor of arbitra tion of labor disputes. He advocated an Income tax for the support of the general Government. "I propose to stand for such a tax," he said, "until the Constitution Is amended to read so dear that no nine judsres nor any judge can ever change his mind, or resj it any other way." He declared lie had returned from the Philippines more than ever con vinced that the islands should be in dependent, though ho thought the American eolonbil svstem an improve ment over the English system, as bo saw it in Indli. At the Wichita-High School and at the Friends University Mr. Bryan spoke of the progress of the world toward peace and brotherhood. At Mount Carmel Seminary, a Catholic school for girls, be spoke of the higher appreciation of woman which had ob tained vherever the Catholic church had Influence. His night meetinsr closed at 9 o'clock, after which he at tended n mlustrcl performance by the local F.Iks. At 9:41'' be left for' Nevada.- Mo., where he speaks tomorrow.

Fresh outbreaks of Boxers" are reported in North China, in districts wept of Pckln, according to mail advices received here. Mr. Stephensfin, a missionary at Tsoulnlusien, Sophingchua, writes that Boxers have been drilling in the hills near there for months and re cently attacked Tsouinhslen. The Boxers, who were uniformed with odd yellow turbans and sashes and car ried banners Inscribed with various mot tos and armerl with swords, spears and other arms, rushed the city and shouted "Kill the foreigners." The foreign community, two mission aries and four women escaped to the ma gistrate's yamen, where they remained. A German army lieutenant traveling in the district arrived opportunely and he put himself at the head of the Yamen soldiery, of whom ten had rifles, as well as himself and his servant. The lieuten ant and his small arm went to a temple in the early morning and were attacked by the Boxers, of whom 11 were killed, and many wounded and 42 taken prison ers. . HOPE OF ANNEXATION HIGH Koosevelt's Kemarks to Kivicro Gratify Havana People. HAVANA. Oct. 9. President Roose velt's statement at Washington yester day to Nicholas M. Riviero. the . Havana editor, that "the means taken by the Vnited States to prevent disorder in Cuba must always be determined by the ex isting conditions and with reference to our solemn obligations to the people of Cuba." is causing considerable gratifica tion here. This, it is pointed out. is not because the words attributed to the President Indicate any definite change in his intentions, but because he did not say anything about the early restoration of the sovereignty of the Republic of Cuba. The opinion is now absolutely universal in Havana that the early restoration of Cuba's sovereignty is utterly imprac ticable. New National Rank Founded. OREGONIAN N EW3 BUREAU. Wash ington, Oct. 9.

ENFORCE SEPARATION LAW French Cabinet Would Be Ousted If It Did Otherwise. PARIS. Oct. 9. After a session of the Cabinet today It was announced that the Ministers, exclusively discussing questions relating to law providing for the sep aration of state and church, were in com plete accord in regard to the integral en forcement of the law, but decisions' re garding minor details were postponed until Friday. There is ho doubt that any attempt of ttie government to modify the- law at the dictation of the Vatican or hesitation to execute its provisions would result in the Ministers being swept out of power. Many believe that the pressure on the Cabinet is so great -that a reorganization of the gov ernment with M. Clemenceau, now Minister of the Interior, as Premier, will follow the opening of Parliament, unless the Vatican yields. NO JAIL FOR HUMMEL. Lawyer Not Affected by Decision of Court of Appeals.

CLOSE GATE New Freight Tariffs on Harri man Lines on De i cemb'er 1. SHUT OUT COMPETITORS Ogden Gateway Will Be Closed and Spiked Down, Lest Gould Should Get Benefit-Jiesult of Chi cago Conference. OMAHA. Neb., Oct. 9. (Special.) New Harriman tariffs to become effective De cember 1 will show 'substantial reduc tions in freight rates, it is said, to Idaho, Oregon and other Northwest points. The reduction, however, will apply only to shipments from and to points on the Union Pacific, as it is reliably stated that the Ogden gateway is to be closed to competing roads. All of the rate clerks in the Union Pacific general offices are now' working on the sheets. The decision to close fhe Ogden gate way was reached at a recent conference in Chicago, at which the Union Pacific freight agents, J. A. Reeves, general freight agent of the Oregon Short Line, and some other officers met with Traffic Director Stubbs of the Harriman system. This gateway has been open to all roads since the time of the segregation of the svstem after the Union Pacific receiver shop. As a Union Pacific man put It today: "This time it is to be closed air-tight and the lid nailed down with spikes that will hold It closed for all time." The closing of the Ogdan gateway means that all westbound freight orig inating at common points destined for points beyond Ogden, if shipped by any route ot"her than the Union Pacific, must pay the local rate from Ogden to the point beyond. The intention is to give the entire benefit of the reduced rates to- the shipper who uses Harrimon tracks for the entire distance. Railroad men say there Is a reason for the move upon the" part of the Harri man lines. They point to the fact that Gould is pushing the construction of his Western Pacific to the Coast and that this road will have close traffic ar rangements with Gould's Rio Grande. For this reason, it is argued, Harriman can seen no reason for adding to the ex chequer of other roads by. giving them the benefit of rates through Ogden.

WANT BETTER TRAIN SERVICE Committee From Lebanon Asks Southern Pacific for Relief. Three days to travel 92 miles by rail to Portland, transact business and return this is the train service furnished Le banon by the Southern IFaclnc, and yes terday a" request was made to General Manager O'Brien by a committee from that city that the schedule be so ar ranged that the round trip can be made to Portland within one day. The mem bers were given some encouragement and believe that a change will be made by the railroad company. The members of the committee from Lebanon which waited upon General Man ager O'Brien yesterday were State Sena tor A. B. Miller. S. M. Garland, B. A. Minrap, G. W. Cruson and N. W. New port. Assistant General Passenger Agent Scott and Superintendent . Buckley took part In the meeting, which was held yes terday afternoon in the general man ager's office The meeting lasted for an hour or more, and the members of the committee discussed every phase of the situation in detail with the officials. General Manager O'Brien gave the assur ance that the change would be made if it were warranted by conditions, and stated that he would take steps to see what could be done to furnish the citizens of Lebanon relief. Lebanon is connected with Albany by a branch line of the Southern Pacific which Is but 14 miles in length. To come from Portland the people of Lebanon leave their home town at 9:35 o'clock on the mixed train. It takes but half an hour to make the run to Albany, where they . must remain until about 3 o'clock in the afternoon to catch the train for Portland. They arrive in Portland in the evening. Then to transact their business and to escape being forced to remain over night at Albany they must stay in Portland until the morning of the second day. As they cannot make prompt connections at Albany upon the return trip, they do not arrive homeuntil 4 o'clock in the after noon. Thus it takes them three days to come 92 miles to Portland and return with a reasonable length of time allowed in which to attend to business. There are two trains a day out of Le banon. Besides the one in the morning there is another at 4:50 o'clock. But If the 4:50 train Is taken, passengers com ing to Portland from Lebanon must re main over night at Albany to catch the morning train. Returning from Portland they could take the afternoon train, but this would necessitate their remaining over at Albany on their way home.

To the Doubting Thomases, the en dorsement of a physician as to the whole someness of Postum Food Coffee may ba comforting. When coffee causes nervousness and dyspepsia. It's time to stop it. And there Is where Postum is a true comforter. It is a warm, palatable and wholesome bev erage and at the same time is a liquid food. Coffee does harm, not because it's well or poorly made not because it's high or low priced but because of the alkaloid drug-rcaffeine, it contains. The habit ual use of coffee, therefore, forms a drug habit. A Buffalo physician said recently, ' "I have used Po-stum Food Coffee in my family and find it to be all that is claimed for it a most wholesome, delicious bev erage. When made and served according to directions it is certainly delightful and refreshing. "I have read carefully Dr. Davenport's analysis ui x-ostum tooa t-onee, as printed on the package, which I most heartily endorse. I have been prescrib ing it to my patients." The doctor is right and there's a rea son. Read th little book, "The Road to Wellville" in packages. 1 00 IT NOW! j J Are you providing against old J age, sickness, accident- or . mis- 'fortune?
