DEMOCRATS SAY
' "HO" "TO HEARST
His Committee Promptly Name
Him as Independent
Candidate.
THREE TICKETS IN FIELD
Demand for Surrender of Party Or
ganization Rejected by Demo
crats Hearst Committee
Summons Him to Bun.
NEW YORK. July 31.(Speclal.)-'W. R.
Hearst's demand for the surrender of the
Democratic organization of the state to
his candidacy for Governor has. been re
jected by the Democratic State Commit
tee by a vote of more than four to one.
Realizing the failure of his campaign
for the Democratic nomination. Mr.
Hearst took the Held as an Independent
candidate today and will tight the regular
Democratic ticket. There will be two
Democratic state tickets In the field, as
suming that Mt. Hearst may be classed as
a Democrat.
The Republican leaders were greatly
pleased with this result, and they made
the prediction that the nomination of Mr.
Hearst would insure the return of the
Republicans to power at the next election.
Hearst Committee Cuts Loose.
Realizing that their effort to capture
the Democratic State Committee was
hopeless, the Hearst lieutenants from va
rious parts of the state, who had been
called together In the Hearst headquar
ters in the Gllsey House, made haste to
cut loose from all connection with the reg
ular Democracy. Max V. Ihmsen, who
lor several years has been in the employ
of Mr. Hearst as his campaign manager
and in other capacities, nominated a state
committee and hud himself elected chair
man of It. Judge Samuel Seabury, of the
I'lty Court was the temporary chairman
of the meeting, which assembled In a
small ballroom in the Gilsey House, where
it sweltered through four hours of
speeches, which were mainly devoted to
the popularity of Mr. Hearst. Mr. Ihm
sen took the chair after he had been
elected and conducted the proceedings,
which had been arranged In the most
minute details a week before the commit
tee was called.
Culled by "The Plain People."
The meeting practically nominated Mr.
Hearst by ordering the following message
sent to him In San Francisco:
Ths people of the 8tata of New York, rep
resented tn the state committee of the In
dependence League, appreciate your great
service to the cause of "the plain people"
and your splendid efforts to compel the crim
inal trusts to obey the law, and recognise in
you a leader under whom the control of their
Government must be restored to the people.
To thU end we pledge you our earnest and
loyal support and Insist that you shall serve
the people as the candidate for Governor In
the coming contest.
By way of adding solemnity to the oc
casion, this telegram waa approved by a
rising vote of the meeting.

about means of telephoning: to Viborg
and telegraphing from there to St. Pe
tersburg. This entails a delay of several
hours.
Rebels Capture Artillery.
The military received a telegram
from Helsingfors this morning from
Major-General Laimlng announcing
that the fortresses and artillery had
opened fire on Commander Island. The
Insurgents seized the artillery, all the
machine guns and took possession of
one of the islands. Some of the tele
graph wires have been out. Major-General
Laimlng announced he was on
Commander Island with four companies
of the garrison and two companies of
sharpshooters sent from Helsingfors.
He dqfs not give the number of casual
ties. Premier Stolypln has also received
frequent messages concerning the mu
tiny. He told a caller that the situation
was critical to an extreme degree. Al
most the entire fortress is-In the hands
of the Insurgents and there were com
paratively few loyal troops In Helsing
fors. The entire disloyal population is
led by the "Red Guard."
REBELS MAY WIN SKATCDEX
Position Favors Them and Rein
forcements Are Cut Off.
HELSINGFORS, July 31. Armed civil
ians ana sailors began rioting at Skatu
den this morning. Troops were hastily
summoned and isolated Sloatuden from
the rest. The buildings where the riot
ers had barricaded themselves were then
fired upon by four cruisers. Rapid-fire
guns were also turned on them. At 5
o'clock this afternoon troops entered Ska-
tuaen ana aisarmea me insurgents.
All day long a small steamer has been
transporting the families to town. Women
and children were In an utterly pitiable
condition.
Sveaborg. at the time of filing this
dispatch, is quiet. The Intentions of the
rebels are not known. The position on
Skatuden Island Is in favor of the muti
neers, who commanded the entire island
until 8 P. M. At this hour the sailors
were yielding. Many of them were de
serting. They were dressed in civilian
clothes. The destroyers In the roadstead
also are quiet. The Cossacks and the
loyal Infantrymen are posted all over
town. Without reinforcements the au
thorities can do nothing.
Captain Koch, an ex-officer of the army
and a Socialist, who was leader of the
November strikes, stopped the St. Peters
burg express yesterday morning. He was
supported by revolutionists. Koch was
Joined by the Rihloakl "red guard," num
bering 85 men. At 10 o'clock the entire
party went to Hikla station and was
tearing up the track, thus cutting off
the approach of Intended reinforcements
reported to be coming from Willman
strand and Viborg.
The town has been relatively quiet.
Many shops did not close before the
usual time. Stray bullets later put a
stop to traffic on the water. A girl was
mortally wounded.
A further cause of the revolt Is said
to be the fact that It was the anniver
sary of a mining disaster caused by the
reckless officers, in which a dozen men
lost their lives.
The Viborg manifesto of the outlawed
Parliament has been distributed among
the Cossacks, who quietly put It In their
pockets.
Numerous RuBSlan revolutionists iave
Suddenly became visible in town. The
cruiser squadron. Including the battle
ship Slava, Is reported to have sailed
from Reval yesterday afternoon.
The telegraph building at Sveaborg te
reported in ruins. The barracks and the
cathedral are badly damaged as a re
sult of the shells from 11-lneh guns. The
number of killed or wounded probably Is
over-estimated.
The revolutionists are expectant, but
the townspeople fear a bombbardment,
should the squadron arrive.
CALL ON RED GUARD TO FIGHT
Revolutionists Demand Civil, ans Go
to Help Soldiers.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1. The fol
lowing dispatch has just been received
direct from Helsingfors. It Is dated
July 31, 2 P. M. :
"A hundred revolutionists, armed and
half uniformed, have Just marched to
the Socialist Club on George street.
They demanded that the Socialist Red
Guard mobilize and Join a movement
to relieve the thousand marines who
are held within a cordon In Skatuden
Barracks by the loyal troops. The
chiefs of the Red Guard are undecided
whether to commence an armed upris
ing or not, as many of the population
are completely out of sympathy with
such a movement.
"The authorities apparently are par
alyzed by the suddenness of the revolt.
They were quite In Ignorance a to
which troops could be depend upon.
"Two officers were killed at Ska
tuden by marines this morning before
a large crowd of civilian sympathiz
ers." DRIVE OUT FOREIGN WORK3IEN.
Russian Strikers Attack Factories to
Gratify Race Prejudice.
TBKATERINOSLAV, ' July 31. For the
first time a distinct anti-foreign senti
ment is manifested among the Russian
workmen here. The recent attacks on
the three foreign manufacturing works
here were followed by an attempt yes
terday of 3000 Russians employed at the
Belgian Glass Works at Tronstantlnovka
to expel the B0 foreigners, chiefly fore
men and engineers. They were only pre
vented from doing so by a detachment
of dragoons. It Is feared that the at
tempt will be renewed.
MANIFESTO AT CRONSTADT.
Copies Smuggled Into Fortress Pre
cautions Are Redoubled.
CRONSTADT, . Aug. 1. (Special.)
Five hundred copies of the Viborg
manifesto were conveyed here by row
"boat and scattered among the soldiers.
As a result, the authorities now have
the harbor patrolled, while the en
trance is kept constantly Illuminated
with searchlights, so that no further
revolutionary literature shall be smug
gled to the troops in that way.

Mutineers Were Denied Brandy.
STOCKHOLM, July 31. The Helsingfors

Both mineowners and the leaders of the
Western Federation of Miners in Nevada

scalo of $4 and $4.50. with $6 and $5.60 for
the more expert classes of laborers. They
made theirstand upon a three-year agree
ment, and this Waa accepted by a vote of
241 to 109. Eight hundred miners did not

aa the miners and mine-owners Joined in
a ratification which closed tonight with
a public demonstration.
But She Missed Her Train.
CHICAGO, July 31. Passengers on a
southbound Halsted-street car were panic
stricken today when a woman pushed the
niotorman from the front platform and
ran the car at high speed for six blocks.
No stops were made for passengers, and
the car collided with coal wagons and
other vehicles along the route.
The woman who caused the excitement
was Mrs. S. H. Chldester, of Evergreen
Park. 14 miles southwest of Chicago. She
wanted to catch a Grand Trunk train at
the Halsted and Forty-ninth street sta
tion. The conductor and several men pas
sensers finally overpowered her. but she
convinced the police that she was not in
sane and was released.
B0IYF0R01
President Prepares Republican
Bill of Fare.
DICK SAYS ALL LIKE IT
Predicts Indorsement of Administra
tion and Standpat Platform.
Revision in 190 7 Would
Mean Defeat in 1008.
OTSTER BAT, July 31. Senator Charles
Dick, of Ohio, and Elmer Dover, secre
tary of the RepuBlican national commit
tee, made a Joint pilgrimage to Saga
more Hill today. President Roosevelt
discussed with them for two hours the
political "situation in Ohio. Aside frem
the advantage of the dslcussion, the sim
ple fact that Mr. Dick waa a guest at
Sagamore Hill and came away bearing
the President's expression of enthusias
tic ' desire for harmony and success in
the coming Congressional campaign Is re
garded ag a political occurrence which
will ,have decided weight in the Repub
lican situation In Ohio. It has been
said in Ohio that Senators Foraker and
Dick do not stand for the Roosevelt ad
ministration and this report bade fair to
cause at least a degree of trouble. It
has now been "nailed to the mast," If
these words from Senator Dick have
meaning: .
Ohio Will Indorse Roosevelt.
"It Is safe to make one prediction, that
President Roosevelt's administration and
the work of Congress will receive sin
cere and enthusiastic endorsement In the
Ohio Republican platform."
Mr. Dick has for many years made the
first draft of the state platform and this
was one of the particular topics of his
talk with the President today.
Besides the strong endorsement of the
President, with whom the Ohio platform
Is to be featured, there Is to be a "stand
pat" declaration regarding the tariff. Mr.
Dick expressed himself freely on this
point. He remarked:
Revision Bad Politics Now.
It -would be practically Impossible for the
Sixtieth Congress to revise the tariff. Besides
it would be decidedly bad polltloal sense.
There has never been an exception to the
occurrence that when a political party in con
trol of Congress undertook to revise the tariff
two years preceding a. national election It
failed to elect Its candidates in that election.
The present tariff law. known as the Dinglry
law, has produced In this country unparalleled
prosperity.
We must at the proper time, however, recog
nize and deal with the sentiment which de
mands a revision of certain schedule. The
Republican policy has always been and the
expressions of the leading advocates of the
protective tariff idea. Including McKlnlev. Its
greatest champion, have been for prudent re
vision, when needed, of such a tariff schedule
as shall take account of changing condition
sooner or later.
Learned Need of Harmony.
Mr. Dick then gave his reasons for
saying that the Republican political out
look in Ohio at the present moment Is
decidedly better than it was a year ago.
Herrick, he said, was defeated for re
election as Governor largely if not en
tirely on the temperance question. This
question is not now a factor. Tho defeat
of Herrick had a salutary effect on Ohio
Republicans. It had undoutedly brought
them to a realization that they could
not be split up by dissensions and win j
at election time.

DOWN 'GOME-FARES
Pennsylvania Road Leads Way
in Reduction.
IT IS TWO AND HALF CENTS
Maximum Cut From S and 3 1 -Cents
Betweep Atlantic Coast
and Chicago and Iioulsville.
Mileage Books 2 Cents.
PHILADELPHIA. July 31. Impor
tant changes In passenger rates were
announced today by Fourth Vice-President
John B. Thayer, of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad, after a meeting of the
board of directors. Th company has
decided to reduce the maximum one
way fares from 3H and S cents to 2M
cents a mile. This action will Involve
a r'eadjustmenc of all through fares
from the South, and, owing to the vast
amount of work entailed by reason of
the change, the new rate will not be
come operative for some time, probably
November 1.
It is assumed that the connecting
lines which reach New York by way of
Cincinnati and Louisville will meet the
Pennsylvania Railroad's reduction by
a readjustment of fares, so that all
Southern passenger traffic, whether by
way of Washington, Cincinnati or
Louisville, will be on an equal basis.
The company will also on September
1 place on sale 1000-mile tickets, valid
only on Its lines east of Pittsburg and
Erie, at the flat price of $20. These
mileage tickets will be transferable.
No change is to be made in the price
of the interchangeable mileage tickets
now sold by the company, which are
not transferable, and upon which a de
posit of $10 above the regular price is
required. It Is estimated that 50.030
interchangeable mileage books are
presented daily on the various reads,
and of this number 65 per cent are
used on the lines of the Pennsylvania
Railroad.
Concerning the reduction In one-way
fares, the company's announcement,
made through Vice-President Thayer,
says:
This reduction of fares has been the sub
ject of serious consideration for a year past.
The company has expended larsre sum to build
relief lines upon which freight trains should
be moved, that this class of traffic might be
diverted from the present main lines, and
thus secure less liability to delay to the com
pny'a largely Increased passenger service. The
