THE MOKXrXG OKEGOXIAX. TUESDAY. JULY 21, 1908. HAS LOST committee will not go to a Southern man, because of the attitude of the Southern ers toward the negro. Although Mr. Bry an thinks highly of Ollie James, of Ken tucky, and his name was prominently considered for the place, the position taken by Mr. James some time ago in fa voring the disfranchisement of the negro made his appointment out of the ques tion.

A dis patch from Tabriz, by courier post to Julfa, affirms that the Shah's cause In Northern Persia is lost. The artillery and ammunition which were abandoned by Rachin Khan, who was commander-in-chief of the troops during his flight from Tabriz, passed Into the hands of the revolutionists, who are now in ull possession of the city. The Shah's palace has been turned into the revolutionary head quarters. The reactionaries, who had taken refuge in the Russian bank and the Russian consul, M. Pohltinoff. have again retired to the consul's country villa outside the city, which is being guarded by a large detachment of Cos sacks. The casualties resulting from the recent bombardment and fighting between the troops and revolutionists were slight. TEHERAN" FEARS AX TJPRISIXG Success of Insurgents at Tabriz En courages Revolutionists. TEHERAN. July 20. The successes of the revolutionaries at Tabriz, con cerning which news is beginning to reach here, have encouraged the local revolutionary leaders and caused ap prehensions of renewed disturbances. Rapid preparations are being made to concentrate the Shah's forces and 1000 horsemen of the nomadic tribes at Bakhtier have arrived on the outskirts of the city. Quarters are being pre pared for them in the vicinity of the Shah's palace which is becoming rap Idly transformed Into a fortress. Guns have been mounted on the walls com manding the city In all directions. A strong party led by Amir Bogatur, which now has the upper hand, has in formed the Shah that the re-establishment of order awaits his instruc tions. The reactionaries are actively at work among the populace collect ing signatures to petitions asking the Shah to abrogate the constitution and a memoir to the same effect is being prepared for presentation to Great Britain and Russia. MARE'S NEST FOR BRYAN (Continued from First Page.) of the Prohibitionists would vote for Mr. Bryan as against their own candidate. He thought the Prohibition movement would affect the vote in the close states and was willing to concede to Judge Taft many of these votes. The appeal of Mr. Bryan to the farm ers of the country for campaign con tributions is bearing fruit. Today a number of responses were received, the sums enclosed varying in amount. Two old retired farmers from Omaha, one nged S2 years and the other 79. pre ferred to deliver their contributions in person. They hobbled up the pathway to Falrvlew and placed in the hands of Mr. Bryan a five dollar bill. Appeal for Campaign Funds. An appeal by Mr. Bryan to the Demo cratic newspapers of the country to be gin the collection of funds for the cam paign was one of the important hap penings of the day. He says: "I wish everjT Democratic paper would begin the collection of a fund from its subscribers. There are very few Demo crats who could not afford to make a small contribution and the people will never be able to control the Government until they take upon themselves the bur den of supplying campaign funds. As long as a few men furnish the money to finance a campaign, the men will exert an undue Influence on the Government. "It seems that we have reached the end of corporate contributions and this Is a step in advance, but the Individuals who control these favor-seeking corporations may still dominate politics by furnishing the sinews of war. The Democratic party has struck a blow at this system by lim iting contributions to J10.0CO and providing for publicity before election. The Repub lican party has so far refused to join with us on this proposition, but public senti ment may yet compel it to do so. I have no doubt that the Democratic party will receive contributions from more individ uals than ever before contributed to any campaign, and there is no reason why the entire sum necessary should not be supplied by contributions from the masses. If every Democratic paper will take the matter up and lend a helping hand, we will soon have money enough in the treasury ,to provide for legitimate campaign work, and that is all we want." Late this evening George Fred Williams, of Boston, arrived and was driven from the station to Falrvlew by Mr. Bryan. The two were in lengthy conference upon reaching the Bryan home, where Mr. Williams expected to spend the night. Bryan's Hopes In Ohio. According to Democratic leaders who have been to Fairvlew, 'and conferred with Mr. Bryan, the ability of the Demo cratic party to secure the negro vote in Ohio will depend largely upon the at titude of Senator Foruker. So long as he remains outside the Republican breastworks, at least as regards Judge Taft, the Democrats feel assured of large negro support in that state. Holding, as they do. the balance of power, political ly, there being some 60.000 of them, the negroes in the Ohio campaign will be a most important factor. However, should Senator Foraker become reconciled and lend his support to Taft. tt is conceded that there is little probability of enroll ing a sufficient number of negro voters in the cause of Democracy materially to affect the result. Former Attorney-General Frank S. Monnett. of Columbus, and E. H. Moore, of Youngstown. who was chairman of the last Democratic state convention, are today speeding home after a conference with Mr. Bryan last night with Instructions to size up the situation and take every advantage of the For-aker-Taft feud. The first feeling of hopefulness with re gard to Illinois is not gaining ground and while that state will be carefully looked after. It has been practically determined that the main efforts in. the Middle West will be directed against Indiana and Ohio, where the leaders are counting on wrest ing the majority vote from the Republi can column. One thing Is definitely settled and that la that the chairmanship of the National ROJESTVENSKY IS DEAD Admiral Whose Fleet Togo De ' stroyed Yields to Heart Disease. BAD NAUHEIM. Germany. July 20. Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky, who com manded the ill-fated Russian fleet, which was annihilated by the Japanese In the Sea of Japan, in May, 1905, died here last night from heart trouble. Admiral Rojestvensky was severely wounded In the battle of the Sea of Japan and was taken prisoner by the Japanese. He was released in an exchange of prls- ...........

He was tried by court-martial with other naval officers for suffering the loss of his fleet and received a severe sentence, but was pardoned by the Czar. UNRAVEL FAMILY TROUBLES Macizskis Agree to Keep Out ot Court and to Divide Savings. OREGON CITY,- Or., July 20. (Special.) In the Justice Court today Mr. and Mrs. Antone Macizskis listened to a severe lec ture from Judge Samson and agreed to keep their ditierences out of court in future. They signed a paper that was drawn up oy the court, by which tney promise not to interfere with one another, and Macizskis says if his wife wants a divorce, he will not contest the suit. He further agrees to give her 1200 when his savings, amounting to $450, reach here from an Eastern bank. This afternoon Macizskis put up JiOO cash bail for the release of his wife's brother, Felix Danneserwaus, but the woman's admirer, Peter BrellluB, who was charged Jointly with ianneserwaus with assault with a dangerous weapon by the husband, still languishes in the County Jail. WEST IS ALL FOR TAFT (Continued from First Page.) Hitchcock to meet here had arrived with the exception of Nevada, and it was de cided to go on with the conference. Mr. Hltchoock addressed his co-workers briefly and explained that he brought them together to broaden their labors and secure co-operation of efforts. Af ter that, all of the men present talked about conditions in their states. They recited the shortcomings in the manage ment of National campaigns in past years as it affected their states, and gen eral discussion was held to devise means of remedying any defects that had been felt. The conferees described the meet ing as a "stocktaking" session. The representatives from California, Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Ne braska, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyom ing declared In positive terms that their states can be carried for Taft and Sherman, but at the same time insist ed that the. campaign there should be carried on with the greatest vigor, the enthusiasm extending to Oklahoma, Texas and to the territories. Make Fight for Oklahoma. Speaking for Oklahoma, National Committeeman Cade and State Chair man Hunter urged that the fight in that state be not ignored. They said that if an earnest effort is made there a close race could be run with the Democrats, with some prospect of suc cess, notwithstanding the fact that the Democrats have the advantage. The representatives of the new state im pressed their colleagues and It was agreed tacitly that strong work should be done in Oklahoma. Colonel Cecil A. Lyon, who is both National committeeman and state chairman from Texas, complained that his state had been neglected by Re publican National campaign managers in the past, and he wanted strong speakers sent there. The situation in Texas will be taken up at some other time. Settle Own Faction Fights. There is a factional fight in the Repub lican ranks of Colorado which is Just now attracting much attention here. An ef fort has been made to Involve Mr. Hitch cock in the controversy by getting him to act as referee. He made it clear to day that he would not be drawn Into the fights in any capacity and he told the local leaders that they should settle their differences, so as not to injure Repub lican chances in the National contest. William Hayward, state chairman for Nebraska, explained In great detail a card system which he maintains of the Nebraska voters. A poll is made each year by precinct leaders and data of all kinds gathered to be used as a guide in sending out campaign arguments. The pamy of Republican leaders has arranged to ascend Pikes Peak tomor row and to resume the conferences at 3 P. M. It has not been decided by Mr. Hitchcock when he will call the leaders from the Central states to meet in Chi cago, but it is probable the -date will be soon after the Taft notification cere monies in Cincinnati. Bank Allowed an Appeal. SAN FRANCISCO. July 20. Judge Sturtevant today granted the motion of the Market-Street Bank to carry its appeal to the Supreme Court in re cetvtrshlp matters, fixing its bond at $245.000. The bank claims that it really was solvent at the time the re ceiver was appointed. Question of Party Affiliation Is, Brought Up in Western Federation. DEBATE HAS WIDE RANGE Grows Out of Introduction of Reso lution Declaring Against Alliance With Political Parties Dis- ' cussion Will Last All Week. DENVER, Colo., July 20. The Western Federation of Miners Convention spent the entire day In discussing the indus trial unionism' question and adjourned without having , taken definite action. During the day the discussion assumed a wide range, including socialism, indus trial unionism, crafts and all kindred subjects. The preamble of the consti tution of the organization declares "That industrial unionism and the concerted po litical action of all wage-workers is the only method of attaining" the emancipa tion of the working class. Today the discussion of all these sub jects arose over a resolution, one sec tion of which read as follows: That the marshalling of workmen In every department of industry under -the banner of one organization, that recognizes the fact that an injury to- one is an injury to all. that the concern of one is the concern nf all. that the working class must get to gether In an economic organization, the pur poses of which are to control the machines of production and means of distribution, re gardless of political affiliations of any kind. This paragraph, it will be seen, declares against political affiliation. Should it be adopted, then a concentrated effort will be made to change the preamble. Fight Ag Inst Politics. The organization has not adopted any political faith, but it has recommended the subject of socialism to Its membership for study. Many Socialists today fought against the addition of any political reso lution on the ground that it did no good and embittered the membership. Last year the convention ordered the executive board to secure, if possible, a conference of representatives of all labor organizations with a view to uniting un der the banner of the Industrial Workers of the World. After the convention many local unions protested and the conference for various reasons was never held. In the discussion this subject was taken up and became part of the general debate, but no definite position as to affiliation with that organization was taken. Object to Socialism. The Miners' Magazine has been con ducted as a Socialist paper under its pres ent editorship and some of the conserva tive delegates took occasion today to bring that into the debate. They declared that its pages should be devoted to the publishing of such articles as pertained to the organization only, and not to for ward the beliefs of any party. So urgent was this that a committee will investi gate and report a series of resolutions setting forth now the magazine sha-i be edited in the future. Discussion Not Ended. This general discussion, including as it does, all of the general subjects so vital to the organization, will probably con sume the greater portion of the week and until the convention gets down to adopt ing resolutions It is Impossible to foretell the outcome. There Is no opposition to President Moyer and he will doubtless be re-elected by acclamation. This will be his seventh consecutive term. An amendment was offered to the con stitution this afternoon which provides that no member of the organization shall serve in the. militia unless called upon by the Governor. ASKS UNION'S TO AID BRYAN Organ of Organized Labor In In diana Favors Xebraskan. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. July 20. (Spe cial.) In an editorial today The Union, the official organ of the Indiana labor unions, advises Its readers to vote for Bryan, but admits that many members ot. organized labor will not do so, not withstanding the anti-injunction plank In the Denver platform. The editorial says: in part: "We take it that to these members of organized labor who place loyalty to the organization above other things the platform adopted by the Democrats at Denver must appeal with force. Quite likely there will be many good and true members of trades unions who will not see this matter in this light; they will not accept the view that to support the nominees" of tne Democrats this Fall is in line with the enuncia tion of the high authority In trades unionism, but this is to be expected. "Unfortunately for the cause of labor at the present time there are many members who place loyalty to party above loyalty to their trade organiza tion. To be sure most of these are not moved by reason; prejudice is their guide. We believe, however, that the number of these who adhere to party as above all else will be less this year than It has been In the past." SIGNAL VICTORY FOR LABOR Canadian Pacific Shop Employes Win on Most Points. WINNIPEG, July 20. The shop em ployes of the Canadian Pacific Rail way gained a signal victory today when the conciliation board, which has been investigating the matters in dis pute between the company and lie men for several weeks, presented Its report.

SEEK HER' NEPHEW Authorities Convinced That He Killed Mrs. Eberhard. PLOTTED FOR MONTHS Clerk Lured Well-to-Do Aunt and - Her Daughter to America for Purpose of Murder and Robbery. NEW YORK. July-,, 20. The tale of a crime so revolting and replete with cruel craftiness as to be almost unbelievable Is told in the case of Mrs. Ottillle Eber hard, the well-to-do Viennese widow whose body was found on the railroad track In a lonely section of Hackensack, N. J., early yesterday. At first it was be lieved that the woman had been' struck by a train and killed. Subsequent in vestigation, however, revealed that she had been murdered and her body placed upon the track in an effort to destroy the traces of the crime. It was with this discovery that there came the first intimation of the deeply laid and cun ningly executed plot which places the case almost in a class by itself in the history of crime. As a result of that Investigation the police are now searching for August Eberhard, the dead woman's nephew, who had Importuned Mrs. Eberhard to come to this country and to bring with her her little fortune of J2600 and her 20-year-old daughter, whom August had promised to marry. It was largely due to te story told by the daughter after the finding of the older woman's body that the search for August was begun, and the police In every city in the Eastern section of the country have been asked to take him into custody if found. Ho is wanted to tell what he knows of the circumstances related by the girl who was to have been his wife. ' The young woman herself, however, refuses to be l'eve that August had any part in the tragic death of her mother; but, despite her protestations, detectives have gone to the home of the man's parents, who live on a farm near Dutchess Junction, in Dutchess County, New York, and the search for him Is being prosecuted In many other quarters. Plotted for Months. According to the police, Eberhard had been at work for months carefully plot ting the crime to gain possession of the little fortune that his aunt in Austria possessed. He wrote many letters paint ing in glowing colors the riches that would be hers if she would only leave the bid home in Austria and come to this new land. To the woman's daugh ter, aged 20, also bearing the name Ottil lle, Eberhard promised marriage if they would come to America. Finally, yield ing to his importunities, Mrs. Eberhard and her daughter set sail for this coun try. They arrived in New York last Thursday on the steamer Deutschland, the mother carrying J2600 in the bosom of her dress. Eberhard. who had been em ployed In a grocery store in St. Nich olas avenue, asked his employer for a vacation on the day of the woman's ar rival and met them at the pier. After settling them temporarily at a little ho tel at Tenth avenue and Twenty-third street, he took the elder to a money changer, where her little store of wealth was quickly converted Into American money. It was the lntenee heat of Sunday af ternoon which furnished the pretext for the trip to the country, with its tragic ending, according to the stories told by her daughter. Eberhard suggested a trol ley ride in New Jersey. Mrs. Eberhard consented to the trip, and the three crossed the Hudson by ferry on their way to the country. At Rochelle Park, two miles west of Hackensack, the nephew suggested that they take a walk, and the three left the car to stroll through the fields. Evening found them at a lonely spot on the tracks of the New .York, Susquehanna A Western Railroad. Ever hard told the women he had lost his way. A storm broke and the trio pushed ahead down the track until in a deafen ing crash of thunder the elder woman stumbled. Thought Shot Lightning. 'T have been struck by lightning," she screamed, as she fell in a heap by the track. At the same instant. Miss Eber hard says she saw a flash coming, evi dently, from behind a car on a siding near by. and then a second and a third. As her mother fell to the tracks, the girl 5c Yd. felt a bullet graze her own neck, cutting a thin gold chain from which a locket was suspended. Suddenly Eberhard urged her to run, and as a second bullet plowed into her shoulder, she started down the track screaming. Once she turned back to see if her mother was following her, and again there was a shot which passed above the bridge of her nose, the blood from the wound half blinding her. Through the darkness and the storm the wounded girl kept up her flight until she reached a cottage, where she was taken in and cared for until the storm had passed. Then the Hackensack police were notified. In the meantime an engineer of a pass ing milk train had seen the body of a woman on the track, and . when he ar rived in Jersey City he telephoned the Coroner of Hackensack. Upon visiting the spot indicated by the engineer, the Coroner found the body of Mrs. Eberhard, horribly mangled. Close examination, however, showed that the woman had been shot twice, and was dead when the train, struck her. The murderer must have shot the woman as she lay pros trate on the track, in order to make sure of her death before dragging her body across the rails. Shock to Eberhard's Parents. POUGHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. July 20. The parents of August Eberhard were dismayed today when detectives In formed them that young Eberhard was suspected of the murder of his aunt and an attempt on tne life of his cousin at Hackensack Saturday evening. The father said: "This is terrible news terrible. Why the boy was to have been married in New York yesterday and we were ex pecting, him fb come home today with his bride." A close watch will be maintained at the farm, in the belief that August may return there. BETRAYED BY COMRADE Escaped Convict Caught After 11 Tears of Right Living. CHICA0O, July 20.

While the steamer Chippewa of the Clyde line was pounding holes in her side on the rocks off M on tank Point yesterday, 24 men were taken from her by a camping party.

' There are plenty of remedies by whicb, you can relieve for the time heartburn, rtain (anr4 rroa j-ivt et-AmnnVt smother nervous sensat ions and induce artificial sleep. But when you take your next meal all your troubles begin afresh. There is only one sensible thing to do. Strengthen the stomach and do away with the necessity for drugs and arti ficial foods.

Learn to choose rational food in general, and to study the effect even of that, as yours may at best be a freakish stomach. Mr. John N. Dietrich, of 231 East Morris street, Indianapolis, Ind., tried a treatment that hag cured thousands and ears: "About four years ago I began to har stomach trouble, which I always thought was brought on fey irregular eating and sleeping while working on the street railways in this city. My condition kept growing worse. I had severs cramps in the stomach if I ate the least thing, even a drink of water would cause them. The cramps often doubled me up so that I couldn't straighten up for some time. Often they would last all day, causing me to go to bed. I didn't have much of an appet ite and I was con- stantly belching gas and sour fluids after everything I ate. I was troubled a great deal with constipation and dizzy spells. iiiv uiuou seeniBu w ue out oi oraer ana I had headaches which seemed almost like neuralgia. I was in a bad state and was in bed for over a week at one time. "The doctor's medicine did me no good and upon advice of a relative I be gan to take Dr. Williams' Pink Piila. Although I had been sick for nearly three years, I felt better right away after taking the pills. My appetite picked up and I haven't had a dizzy spell since.
