COUNTESS SEES THE SLUMS Sent to Chicago as Representative of the German Kmpre?s. ClIICACtO, Oct. 30. For three weeks Chicago sociologists have unknowingly entertained a Princess of the blood royal of Germany, residing under a commonplace name in the Young Wom en's Christian Association building and Investigating the slum' conditions of the city. Not until today was the discovery made that simple Frauleln Marie Winkler was no less than a represen tative of her Imperial Highness, tiie Empress of Germany, a Countess, mem ber of the Koyal House of llohenzolltrn and by birth a cousin to the Emperor. The Countess revealed her identi ty under protest. By her statements for the tirst time it is known that the German Government is inquiring spe cifically Into the alleged traffic in white women in this country, as virtual laves. The deportation of women from the Fatherland and ot her countries to America for unlawful purposes so roused the German Km press that the Countess von Wurtemberg has been deputized to represent her in an en deavor to collect statistics in the Unit ed States to control the evil that Is claimed to exist. So thorough have been the Investi gations of the Countess that today she declared she had virtually covered the entire city of Chicago, and next week would be ready to leave for the West, "where Tier plans and those of her so ciety call for an inquiry into the con ditions existing in San Francisco. "1 am not acting In the Interests of any sociological body. I am seeking to tind out for the government that I rep resent whether in this country there Is any regularly organized body which traffics in the sale of white women from Germany. 1 am glad to state, Jiowever, that the majority of the wom en from my country, even the peasant class, are safely taken care of and eventually tind good homes.

Lroy Park, the agent for the Com mission, has been in . Spain for some months, recruiting laborers, and has found many difficulties in obtaininar Spanish laborers, who have shown themselves so well adapted to condi tions In Panama.

Oct. 30. The President is preparing- to redeem his promise to the Philippine people through Secretary Taft that they shall have a Parliament of their own, condt.ioned upon their good behavior for a term of two years, and it is under stood that Secretary Taft himself will proceed to the Philippines next Spring- to witness the installation of the new form of representative government. March 27, 1!5, the Philippine census was published, and consequently two years from that date, March 27, 1107. under the terms of the act of Congress, the President will direct the Philippine Commission to call a general election for the' choice of dele gates to what will be known as the Fili pino Assembly. The body is to take over all legislative powers heretofore exercised by the Philippine Commission in all parts of the Archipelago not inhabited by Moros and non-Christian tribes. As this date draws near the Philippine people are showing signs of agitation, and to the officials here, it is evident that they are expecting some benefits that can not at once "be realized. For instance, the Assembly of Provincial Governors, re cently in session in Manila with ijhe view to arranging the preliminaries for the meeting- of the Philippine Assembly, is re ported to have recommended that the suffrage be widely extended. It is pointed out here that this is not possible for renson that the act of Congress under which the assembly will be convened ex pressly states the qualifications of voters. These in brief are that the voter must be at least 25 years of age, must be able to read and write either Spanish or English, must own a small amount of property, or must have been in the past an ofticehoiuer under the Spanish government. The new assembly will consist of two houses to be known as the Philippine Commission and the Philippine Assembly, the latter to consist of not less than 50 or more than 100 members. It is probable that the present commission will be merged in the Upper House. NKi:i SQLAKK DKAL OX T Alt IFF Ide Suys but for That Philippines Are Thriving. SAX FRANCISCO. Oct. 30. Henry Clay Ide. late Governor-General of the Philip pines, arrived here yesterday on the liner Hongkong Maru, accompanied by his daughter. Miss Marjorie Ide. He has come home after live years' service in the Far East, to attend the marriage of his daughter to Bourke Cockran. The wedding will take place at the Ide home In St. Johnsbury, Vt., shortly after Gov ernor Ide's arrival. Speaking of conditions in the islands, Governor Ide said: "The Philippines are today in better shape than they ever were under Spanish or American rule. The labor on the island is no longer a problem. "What the Philippines do need, however, is a square deal in the matter of the tariff. By annexation we killed the Span ish market for the sugar and tobacco of the Philippines, and by our tariff we barred these products from the United States. Both industries are today in a Mat of prostration. "The policing of the islands is almost entirely in the hands of the natives, and except in Leyte and Samar. where hill tribes make war on the islanders, all is peace in the Philippines." ROOSEVELT TO AID (Continued From First Page.) papers alleging misrepresentation, Mr. Hearst said: ; "Tour elected officers have betrayed you in many cases; your newspapers, like the New Tork World for example, are faithless In this emergency. We must win this election almost unaided. We can win It and will win it if we have con fidence in each other and confidence In our cause." DELIVER SPEECHES IN SNOW Hughes and Hearst on Stump. Roosevelt Persists In Silence. NEW TORK, Oct. 30. Snow failed to chill or rain to dampen the enthusiasm of thousands who turned out today to hear and applaud the heads of the state tickets as they hurried through the western sec tion of the state, stopping wherever pos sible to speak briefly and shake hands with party supporters. Today's speeches were on familiar lines. W. R. Hearst roundly scored the Board of Elections, which decided against Inde pendence League candidates, and pledged freedom from corporation control of of ficeholders. During the day Republican headquarters were considerably surprised by the ap pearance of a Hearst campaign flier which showed the candidate's photograph and gave expression to views of public affairs, paralleled with recent utterances of Pres ident Roosevelt on the same subjects. State Chairman Timothy L.. Woodruff later announced that he would urge the Chief Executive to resent the inference that he and Mr. Hearst were in accord on certain matters, but iat the White House tonight nothing was forthcoming concerning the political situation in New Tork State. It was stated that Secretary Root, in his speech at Utica next Thursday night, might outline the Administration's views on the local issues involved. HEARST ENEMY OF PROSPERITY Huglies Declares Policy of Vilifica cation Makes Him So. OSWEGO, N. Y., Oct. 30. After an all day tour of the Lake counties, Charles E. Hughes, Republican candidate for Gover nor, spoke here tonight to an audience that filled the Richardson Theater. It was his tenth speech of the day, and in it Mr. Hughes took occasion to review prac tically all of the many topics he has dis cussed from time to time since his cam paign began. The day was one of rain, wind and snow, but the outdoor crowds which greeted Mr. Hughes at the towns where his train stopped were as large and demonstrative as any he has had on his up-state trip. . In all his speeches today he spoke of the prosperity enjoyed by the state and nation, and declared that the greatest en emy to such a happy condition is "reck less abuee of our 'business methods." At Niagara Falls today, where Mr. Hughes made one of his principal ad dresses, he said: The American name Is honored t"ne world over for Its ingenuity, its organizing skill, its talent for business enterprises and the diffusion of prosperity throughout our broad land. We have today greater prosperity than we have ever enjoyed, simply because the American Intelligence has had a chance to work and, before all, those who are in a position to embark in new enterprises have known that they can rely, in the event of a discussion of any question in regard to which people differ, on a decision of that question in the light of the American con science and good sense. The man who substitutes vilification for honest criticism, the man who tries to breed bitterness of feeling by distortion of facts, the man who is not content with the evil that exists, bad as ,it is, but wants to make it worse in the interest of a selfish ambi tion, that man is the greatest enemy, of our prosperity. HEARST LEAGUE WINS APPEAL His Candidates Go On Ticket Under Rush Decision. . ALBANY, N. Y.,' Oct. . 30. The Court of Appeals tonight decided that the making of independent nominations by multiple petition was not contrary to the election statute and affirmed "the right of "the In dependent League to make such nomina tions. The court also decided that in the case of judicial nominations the certificate filed first had prior claim and that the In dependence League had a right to desig nate its own candidates. Decisions were handed down at 11:15 tonight, following a special session of the court, which reconvened . at 2:30 P. M. today for the purpose of hearing the ap peals from the appellate division orders in-the New York City nomination cases. As a result of the decisions these candi dates will be placed in the Independence League column on the official ballot: Francis E. Shober, Tammany candidate in the Seventeenth Congressional District; Charles V. Fomes, Tammany candidate in the Ninth Congressional District; Henry M. Goldfogle, Tammany candidate in the Eighteenth Congressional District. Judge Otto Rosalsky's name will also go in the Independence League column, together with the names of three Assemblymen and Senatorial candidates. - Judge Gray read the decision, which was mado by the whole court. PARLEY SAYS HE'S DEMOCRAT Denies Declaring for Hnghea and Says He Will Not Vote. NEW YORK, Oct, 30. James Farley, who has figured prominently in several railroad streetcar strikes in New York and many other cities, issued a formal statement today, in which he denied that he had declared himself as favoring the election of Charles B. Hughes. He says that he always has been a member of the Democratic party, that he never voted for any other party, and that he has little reason to believe that he will ever vote for any other party. This year he will not vote at all, he says, as he failed to register. Farley says this statement is given out because of "the effort to drag me into the campaign to hurt the candidate who knows nothing of me or my business, or of whom I know nothing more than any other newspaper reader may know." ROOT IS ROOSEVELT-S VOICE Will Speak for Administration, but Roosevelt Keeps Silence. WASHINGTON, Oct. 30. No comment was obtainable at the White House on the statement made by Chairman Woodruff that he will advise President Roosevelt to repudiate a campaign document issued by the Independence League in support of Mr. Hearst's candidacy for Governor of New York. The speech to be made by Secretary Root at Utica November 1 will, it is said, represent the Administration's views on the pending issues In the campaign. Tho President and Mr. Root have consulted freely about the position to be taken by the Secretary in his speech. The President has -steadfastly adhered to his determination not to write any let ter or make public any communication bearing on the campaign in New York. He has repeatedly expressed to his callers his sincere desire for the election of Mr. Hughes, but feels that he cannot with pro priety interfere in state elections. HEARST USES THE PARALLEL Roosevelt Asked to Repudiate Ver . sion of His Speeches. NEW YORK, Oct. 30. Timothy L. Woodruff, chairman of the State Repub lican Committee, said today he would ad vise President Roosevelt to repudiate a campaign document issued by the Inde pendence League in support of William R. Hearst's candidacy for Governor. Mr Woodruff objects to the publication in parallel columns of extracts from the speeches of the President and Mr. Hearst as to the' proper -use of wealth. Mr. Woodruff said: "It is earnestly hoped that President Roosevelt, who has to a degree long main tained a portion that he could not inter, fere in looU politics, will -take up th'3 matter and denounce the author of the illusion. It was expected all along that some suoh effort would be made by Hear.it to influence voters. "My attention was called to the Hearst publication yesterday, and I made an investigation which disclosed the facts re gardingthepublieation of theparallel views of the 1'j esidentand Mr. Hearst. I fount it to be a serious matter, and will urge upon the President the advisabil ity of breaking his rule of silence iu lo cal political matters and replying to this insinuation. I ant aware that the Presi dent is not inclined to interfere in state politics, but in view of this publication. I would strongly urge that the President repudiate the statement." . The publication referred to by Mr. Woodruff quotes President Roosevelt's speech at Oyster Bay, September 8. 1906, when he is reported as saying that the multi-milliona.ire is not a harm, but a good to the community if he appreciates that he is only a trustee for that wealth and us s it for causes of good. From a speech by the President at Washington on July 6 last he is quoted as saying that very wealthy men may sometimes play a useful part in life, but that they rarely are as useful as lives which are expended in different fields from those of money getting. Against this. Mr. Hearst is quoted in a parallel column as saying there should be as much as possible an equal distribution of wealth, that he believed in organiza tions that tend to distribute wealth; that its distribution is as important as its cre ation, and that one law-defying million aire will do more than any other single thing to regulate trust inequalities. NEVER SOLD A SEX'ATORSHIP Sinoot Says Snow Was Guiltless and Thus Answers Kearns. SALE LAKE CITY, Oct. 30. The extent to which National political issues are overshadowed by the Mormon question lo cally was shown last night, when a large crowd at a Republican rally in the Salt Lake Theater interrupted the speech of Congressman Charles E. Littlefield to call for Senator Reed Smoot. Smoot was ex pected to reply to the challenge of ex Senator Thomas Kearns to debate as to whether Sutherland was correct in assert ing that Kearns had bought the Senator ship from the late President Snow, of the Mormon Church. Smoot denied that Sutherland had made the charge attributed to him, added that the challenge was based on the willful falsehood, and concluded: "1 know President Snow never sold the Senatorship to Senator Kearns, and, if he agrees with me on that point, there is no controversy between us, as far as that is concerned." Littlefield discussed his own labor rec ord, the tariff and other National ques tions. I MESACK OF THIS BIG STICK. Senator Whytc Say Country May Be Partial to SM.iaHni. BALTIMORE, Oct. 31. The last big meeting of the Democratic Congres sional committee was held in this city in Lyric Hall last night. The speak ers included United .States Senator William P. Whyte, of this city, who said in part: "The elasticity of the executive and legislative authority in widening and extending the police and other powers of the Federal Government is disturb ing the peace of all peaceful men. The domineering influence of the Federal Government lias become oppressive at home and abroad. Our colonial policy over possessions acquired by the sword is at war with the fundamental prin ciple for which the Revolutionary he roes shed their blood. On tile one hand the wielder of the "big stick" not only over the heads of the plain peo ple, but over the ermine of the judi ciary, is driving the country into im perialism and on the other hand ora tors of a high order of eloquence and some of the smallest type are leading the electors into the dangerous bogs of communism and socialism." Taft Speaks in Illinois. DECATUR, 111., Oct. 30. Secretary of War Taft arrived this afternoon and went to the Christian Temple, where a large audience awaited him.

Anarchy reigns in Morocco. Trade has almost ceased and, communication has been com pletely cut off between many of the im portant towns.

Amos Boreum, "Uncle Amos" to President Roosevelt and others, died at Oyster Bay Monday. He was nearly SO years old, and for the Catarrh of the Stomach A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effectual Cure for It. COSTS NOTHING TO TRY. Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat ing sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or watery risings, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing, headaches, fickle appetite, ner vousness and a general played out, lan guid feeling. There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue and if the interior of the' stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condition. The cure for this common and obsti nate trouble is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly, digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mu cous surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy digestipn is the one necessary tiling to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Harlanson, the safe est and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Dias tase Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gold en Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a patent medicine, can be used with perfect safety and as surance that healthy appetite and thor ough digestion will follow their regular use after meals. Mr. R. S. Workman, Chicago. 111., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition re sulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes inflamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward into the throat reaches the stomach, thus producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach with out cure, but today I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot find appropriate words to express my good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use." Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest preparation as well as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion.
