Democrats Decide to Get
After Republicans to
Stop the Lavish Use of
Money-Doubtful States
CHICAGO, Sept. 8. At the confer
ence of democratic lenders hero today
it was decided that the democratic na
tional committee will invoke the cor
rupt practices act to prevent the lavish
use of money by the republican national
committee in doubtful states. This
move was determined upon after n
lengt hv discussion. It is claimed by
the leaders that the republicans are
arranging to raise a big campaign fund
which they will use mainly in the
doubtful states.
An nrintigement was perfected be
tween Bryan and Samuel (ioiupers by
which fiompors will remain on the
stump throughout the campaign. It is
now understood that. Ciompers will make
an open appeal to the labor vote of
the country to support the democratic
ticket. Under the plan adopted today
other labor leaders aro to join him in
the stumping of the country. Ciompers
also has a plan under way by which
he expects to have literature favoring
the democratic cause distributed in all
labor circles.
Pleased With Reports.
The leaders were greatly pleased with
the reports received from the various
state .chairmen. All these reports were
flattering and optimistic. Bryan apent
much time talking with the leaders and
iinal settlement has been made of many
proposit ions which were lending.
John W. Kern, the vice-presidential
candidate, was prominent in the con
ference and showed that he is taking
an exceedingly active part in the cam
paign. Bryan will speak tomorrow at
l'eoria. III., on the subject of " The
State and the Nation.'
HACKENSCHMIDT DRIFTING
ABOUT MERRY ENGLAND
LONDON", Sept. S. (ie.orge Ilacken
Hchniidt, fat and apparently out of con
dition, ywet claiming a feel as well as
ever, is drifting about England again,
arranging for a series of exhibitions
next month.
Since his let urn to CI r eat Britain
" Hack" has spent considerable time at
Manchester. He he has confided to
friends that his one desire is to secure
another meeting with Frank CJoteh,
who wrested from him his laurels. Only
with a referee upon whom he can de
pend, however, and not in Chicago in
a nay event, is the Russian lion willing
to meet Cioteh.
According to Hackenschmidt 's story,
all he needs is to get back into con
dition to be ready for the hardest kind
of a go. Owing to reports at the time
of his operation at Aix la Chappelle.
English sporting men are inclined to
doubt "Hack's" ability to stand any
great physical strain.
His two paralyzed fingers are appa
rently in good working order and his
knee, although not quite as good as
new, is rapidly regaining strength and
losing its stiffness. At the same time,
it is no secret that his illness at Aix-la-Chappelle
was more serious than
"Hack" is willing to admit.
After finishing his jaunt through Eng
land Hackenschmidt will spend his time
between engagements at a bungalow he
has secured on t he Sussex coast.

Fire Destroys Longworth
Stables and Threatens
Their Residence--Alice
Enjoys It
CINCINNATI, O., Sept. 8. Attired
in her night robe, Alice- Roosevelt Long-
worth was routed from her home here
early today with her husband, Congress
man Nicholas Longworth, also wearing
his nocturnal garb, by a fire which des
troyed the Longworth stables and
threatened to burn the residence.
When the Longworths were wakened
the flames were shooting in the air from
the stables and the smoke had sur
rounded the house nnd entered the halls
so that they thought they were in the
midst of the conflagration. Not wait
ing to don their clothes, they seized
v. halever they could for protection and
rushed into the street.
For half an hour it seemed that the
house certainly was doomed, and the
president 's daughter, though she was
in great danger of catching cold, was
a f ra id to return to the house. She
watched the fire and Longworth tried
to aid in protecting the residence. The
barn is far from the street and there
was onoly one available water plug,
1OD0 feet from the scene, which made
it hard for the firemen to fight the
blaze.
Alice Has Good Time.
Aside from her discomfiture nnd the
unpleasantness of being routed mil of
bed in such fashion, Mrs. Longworth
seemed to enjoy the excitement nnd
gave orders to the firemen. This was
one occasion, however, when lier orders
were utterly ignored. The firemen, who
did not realize that she was the daugh
ter of the president of the Flirted
States, told her to stand back out of
the way. "Better get into the house;
you 're sure tit get wet nnd get your
death of cold," said one fireman, but
Alice would not budge; she remained
on the scene until the fire was safely
confined to Ce stables, when she re
lumed to her apartment. The property
loss by the burning of the stable is es
timated at ,J5,ono.
MUCH MONEY SPENT
IN BOOSTING MEDFORD
At the regular monthly meeting of
the Horticultural society Saturday aft
ernoon Secretary Miller of the Com
mercial club presented a report of the
money spent by the club in advertis
ing the valley during the past three
years. In round numbers it amounted
to $'.'SO0 in 1006, $4100 in 1907 and
1700 so far in H08, this last amount
including the expense of the first edi
turn of the pamphlets. This edition is
now practically exhausted and it will
be necessary to order some more at
once. The grand total for the three
years spent in advertising amounted to
nearly $12,000. This does not include
about $"000 more spent locally in en
tertaining. The report pointed out
that most of the money had been sub
scribed by the business men of Med
ford, while the greatest direct gain
had been to the farmers by the en
hanced value in land. At the present
time there are 20 firms that are giving
$10 a month each. Two firms have
subscribed more than $3.ri0 apiece to
be paid in monthly instalments. ,T. A.
Perry, commenting on Secretary Mil
ler s report, said to the meeting that
money paid into the publicity fund
should be regarded as an investment
rather than a donation. It paid for
itself many times over in the increased
value of all property by bringing in
vestors here.
AMERICA'S JEAN VALJEAN
HAS SKIPPED THE COUNTRY
KANSAS C1TV, Mo., Sept. 8.
Charles W. Anderson, the Jean Valjean
of America, who was pardoned by Pres
ident Roosevelt, was missing today
when his case was called in the police
court on a charge of gambling.
Anderson was arrested Saturday night
in a mker raid. On his statement that
he had Item engaged merely in a friend
ly game, h was released on bond. To
day his wife stated that he had left
town.
Anderson was convicted of a felony
several years ago and sentenced to the
jtenitentinry. He mannged to escape
and successfully concealed his identity.
He reformed and became a respectable
citizen. His old companions found him
out and exposed him. The pardon was
granted by President Roosevelt on the
ground that his reform bad expatiated
the crime he had committed.
Fighter Loses Little Pres-
tige As Result of Yes
terday's Battle-Little
Fighters to Meet Again
YOS ANGELES, Cal., Sept. 8. Al
though Billy Papko is the- hero of the
hour among the fight fans today, Stan
ley Ketchell has not lost as much pres
tige as would naturally be expected
after such a decisive defeat as that
of yesterday, when ho was put out in
the 12th round of the scheduled 25
round bout for the middleweight cham
pionship of the world. The defeated
champion's game showing saved him,
and while he has received a setback in
hia brilliant ring career, his declara
tion that he is not "finished" is gen
erally accepted.
Lucky Punch Did the Work.
Papke declares he beat Ketchell at
his own game with a lucky punch early
in the fight, ami the defeated fighter
swears that he was criminally careless.
The fans agree with him. There is gen
eral satisfaction over the outcome of
(he fight among the heavy bettors
here. Although they made very little
noise about it, most of the plungers
were down heavy on the short ender.
One bet of $50oo "real money" was
posted less than an hour before the
fighters entered the ring.
The financial statement given out by
the Jeffries club shows the receipts of
the fight to have been $IS,S-I0, of
which $(iu"4 went to Papke and $-1430
to Ketchell.
Will Have to Fight Again.
SAX FRANCISCO, Cal., Sept. 8.
The consensus of opinion in prize fight
ing circles here today is that there will
never a final settlement between Abe
Attell and Owen Moran, who fought
to a draw yesterdny, until they meet
in a finish fight. The draw yesterday,
following the same decision on New
Vears' day was a great disappointment
all around. Some of the so-called ex
perts claim that Attell will not try
to put Moran out ns long as he can
keep the question of which is the bet
ter man on a good paying basis. Both
men claim a victory today, and both
score Referee Jack Welsh. After all
discussion the same answer is that At
tell nnd Moran could settle it in short
form in a finish fight, each knowing
he had to win quickly or be worried
by n long contest.
Ten to Six on Nelson.
Both Battling Nelson and Joe Cans
went on the road for a workout this
morning preceding their 45 round battle
for the lightweight championship to
morrow. The odds stand 10 to (1, with Nelson
the favorite. Cans will do a little
work in the gymnasium this nfternoon.
They will enter tin ring at 133
pounds tomorrow afternoon nt 2:30
p. in. The Dane says he is better than
lie was the Fourth of July nnd that he
will make short work of Cans. The
negro, however, appears to be in ns
good condition as ever in his life, nnd
seems confident that he will win back
the laurels he lost on Independence
dav.
WEED OIRL LOSES NO
TIME IN CHANGING MIND
CHICO, Cal., Sept. !. The surpris
ing facts of the rapid fire matrimonial
entanglements of Dora Wise. 10, of
Weed, Siskiyou county, who broke an
engagement, was reengaged and mar
ried nnd left her n. w spouse without
giving any reason, nil within the brief
space of 24 hours, became known today.
Miss Wise came here a week ago and
nnnounced that she was on the way to
be married to a mill superintendent of
this city, but was married to a travel
ing man who in she had known only one
day. The girl's parents took her to
Orlando today. There is much specula
tion as to the cause of Miss Wise's re
markablp actions.
MO-UBNBD FOR DEAD 35
YEARS, BUT AT LAST FOUND
CHICAGO, Herd. 8. Relatives of
Otto Mayr, mourned as dead for 3."
years, today received news that he is
not only alive, but prosKrous. In 173

it was thought hi met the same fate.
It was not until Frederick Mayr, a

Wadsworth Places Little
Importance in Stray Shot
WhiGh Narrowly Missed
the President
OYSTER BAY, L. L, Sept. 8. Prior
to his departure fr New York, Major
Wadsworth, the friend of President
Roosevelt, who was riding with the
president Saturday night when a bullet
passed close to the chief executive's
head, said that ho did not place cre
dence in tho report that the shot was
fired by u would-be assassin.
"1 am convinced that the bullet was
fired by persons engaged in target prac
tice on the Emlin Roosevelt farm, and
do not believe it was aimed at the
president," said Majod Wadsworth.
Major Wadsworth said that neither
he nor tho president was much wor
ried by tho incident, but that nt tho
time he did not think it advisable for
the president to mnko a personal in
vestigation nnd advised against his dis
mounting ami trying to find tho ntnn
who fired the shot.
Not Connected With Attempt.
M1XEOLA, L. I., Sept. S. After an
examination of the prisoners, Drs.
Wright and Burns today declared they
were convinced that John Coughlin,
arrested yesterday at Sagamore Hill,
was not connected with the supposed
attempt upon tho life of President
Roosevelt Saturday.
To a representative of tho United
Piths Coughlin said today that his home
is in alpole, Mass., where he lives
with his father, James Coughlin. He
denied any intention to harm the pres
ident and asserted that he was no
where near Oyster Bay Inst Sunday.
The man talks in a shambling fash
ion and evidently is demented. lie ex
plained that he carried a revolver for
his own protection and said he hno no
idea of ever using it except in self
defense. There is no indication that
the revolver has been fired recently,
lie could not clearly repeat tho story
hn told at Sagamore Hill lust night
about wanting to send troopn to Bos
ton to capture yeggmen.
M is probablet hat the man wilt be
confim-d in the Long Island aaylum,
unless hi relatives arrange for his be
ing cared for otherwise. It is believed
he is hilrmlcas.
TWO MEET DEATH
IN BURNING HOTEL
DENVER, Col., Sept. 8. Two men
were burned to death and a dozen per
sons were seriously injured today by a
fire which destroyed the Hotel Bel
mont. The hotel was crowded, having at
least 100 guests. At an early hour it
was discovered that the building was in
flames.
Caught unawares, many of the guests
were unable to find their wav from the
hotel, and many jumped from the upper
stories, receiving serious and in some
cases possibly fatal injuries.
The two men who were burned to
death were probably suffocated by
smoke and rescuers were unable to
reach them, on I v their charred and
blackened bodies being recovered.
I he f iremen succeeded in carrying
a number of women and children down
ladders from the upper stories.
When the larin was given by bellboys
running through the halls there was
t he greatest confusion, and the fact
that all escaped but two is considered
remarkable. It was thought for a time
that at least 2't had been burned to
death.

SCRAP OVER HAMILTON
SITUATION MAY REVOKE
Of BUNKERS HIS OFFER
Railroads, Councilmen, En
gineers and Citizens In
dulge in a Free-for-all
Over Proposed Site
rho city has made two guossos as re
gards tho location of tho bunkers to
ruceivo tho crushed rock from tho quar
ry near Jacksonville, nnd it is up to
them to guess again. Tho first site was
too near the yard of tho Crater Lake
Lumber company to suit Manager Hn
fer, as the dust and cinders from tho
rock nnd engine would dnmago tho fin
ished lumber stored near the proposed
site. A third location will probably
be chosen south of Itanium's new de
pot, but has not been definitely settled
upon.
As soon as Mr. Hafer found that the
bunkers were to bo constructed next to
that portion of his yard In which fin
ished lumber is stored he took the mat
ter up with Superintendent Fields of
the Southern Pacific company, stating
his objections. Mr. Fields advised A.
H, Rosenbnum, tho local agent of the
company, to choose nnother site, which
would not damage any of the patrons of
i he compniiy.
When tho street committee, tho may
or, engineers nnd representatives of
the railroads got together to select a
third sito the trouble began. Several
choico bits of conversation wero al
lowed to float about, and occasionally
it seemed us if some of the pnrties
were about to mnko ft noise liku get
ting busy, But nothing more strenu
ous than words wero Indulged in.
It is probable that the bunkers will
be erected south of the new depot of
the R. R. V. rnilroad. This site is
nearly as convenient ns tho other.
Superintendent Clupman of the War
ron Construction company stnted Tues
day morning that ho would he ready
to stnrt the work of paving Seventh
street as soon ns the bunkers were com
pleted. He stated that there would be
no difficulty in finishing the work by
November 1, as his contract with the
city spocifios.

Says That He Is Tired ol
Being Ignored by Water
Committee -Wants Ac-
' tion on Proposition
Only tho influenco of a number of
prominont citizens of Medford kept
I. L. Hamilton, president of tho Fish
Lake Water companay, from withdraw
ing Luesdny morning his proposition to
sell the city 300 inches of water for
$15,000, Hn has delayed action in the
matter for the present, but has not
hanged his mind in regard to the mat-
tor and will probably take such a step
in the near future unless he receives
more attention from the water commit
too. Mr. Hamilton states that ho has nover
received nny nttention from the com
mit too and has never boon able to ob
tain from them so much as an expres
sion in regard to the proposition which
ho has made to them. Ho is of the
opinion that tho offer of his company
should be either accepted or rejocted
and states that unless some recogni
tion is given the proposition in the
near future that ho will withdraw the
offer.
Never Been Noticed.
"I have never been noticed by the
wntor committee," said Mr. Hamilton,
"since t ho proposition of my company
has been put before them. I am tired
of all this foolishuoss, and unless it Is
either rejected or nccepted in tho near
future 1 will withdraw it. I do not care
what action thoy take in the matter.
I am interested In the growth of this
ity, and my proposition was made to
them to aid the city and not as a busi
ness proposition. They have never no
ticed it in one way or tho other, and
it is time the mnttor be closed. I came
down town this morning with the In
teutiou of withdrawing the offer in
order to close the matter, but wns asked
not to by a number of citizenea.
"This is tho third offer my company
hns made to the city. In overy instance
wo havo boon treated in much the same
manner, and I am gotting tired of it.
Thoy must either reiliect or accept soon
or I will end it mysolf."
