' BOTH MACHINES 11 IfJ CALIFORNIA Incomplete Returns Show League in Minority in Convention. arrests. Each man so far arrested was at least six years a trusted employe of his firm, and each worked for a dif ferent concern. A mysterious man. whose Identity has not been learned, Is said to have been the head of the conspiracy to rob. Each day he would drive by the back doors of the stores where his confeder ates were employed and the goods they took were loaded Into his covered wagon and hauled away. The men declare they do not know the mysterious man's name and could not Identify him, as he never appeared twice in the same makeup. They say part of the time he wore a beard, sometimes was smoothshaven, and once was disguised as a negro. The men arrested will be given a hearing today. GLAD TIDINGS ARE TO BORNE BRYAN Democratic Leaders Arrive in Lincoln, Promising Victory. CARRIES SOME COUNTIES But Hopelessly Beaten In San Pran Cisco Wins L,os Angeles and Alameda McNab Faction of Democrats on Top. SAX FRANCISCO, Aug. 11. A pri mary election was held today in the principal counties of the state, for the purpose of choosing delegates to the county, district and state conventions and determining the question of control in the Republican and Democratic parties. At 11 o'clock tonight the returns were Incom plete, but the figures Indicated that the regular organization or "machine" of both parties had won a. victory.

In San Francisco the Lincoln-Roosevelt League has carried but four of the 17 districts with one In doubt. On the Democratic side the Bell, or opposi tion ticket, has carried only six dis tricts. The organization Republican ticket has rarrled the districts com prising the Fourth and Fifth Congres sional Districts, assuring the renomlna tlon of Congressmen Kahn and Hays. At Lo Angeles the Lincoln -Roose-velc League elected 148 delegates out of 332: hut $0 per cent of Los Angeles County gave the league a majority of 25 in the county convention. San Diego City went for the "regu lars," but In the county the league was more successful. It Is thought that the regulars will control the con vention. Alameda Carried by League. In Alameda County the league will control 135 out of 225 delegates. State Senator G. R. Lukcns has been de feated by John W. Stetson, the league candidate. All of the candidates for the Assembly In this county are pledged to the re-election of United States Senator Perkins. The organization has carried Santa Clara County.

Aug. .11. County Judge S. T. Bradford and County Attor ney George B. Kinney, of Bracken County, yesterday Issued the following statement In answer to Governor Will son's charge that they have not done their duty: "The statement from Governor Will son that the County Judge and County Attorney of Bracken County have failed to do their duty as officers or said coun ty, is false. They 'have been ready, able and willing at all times to do their duty, and the county of Bracken at the pres ent time and for months past has had no trouble of any character, other than the trouble caused by the Gov ernor's troops riding the turnpikes and Intimidating and frightening citizens and creating an expense unnecessarily."

STATES HE WILL CARRY? Gathering for Notification Develops Into Meeting or Optimists' Club, With Few Earnest Words About Campaign Fund.' FAIRVIEW, Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 11 John W. Kern, Vice-Presidential can didate, Norman E. Mack, chairman of the Democratic National committee, and several other prominent Democrats were the vanguard of interesting ar rivals today to attend the notification ceremonies here tomorrow. Within a few minutes after their arrival Mr. Mack, Mr. Kern, Joseph Daniels, head of the literary bureau of the National committee: ex-Governor John E. Os borne, of Wyoming and John E. Lamb, of Indiana, were In an extended con ference with Mr. Bryan at his home at Fairvlew, on questions vitally affect ing the conduct oi the coming cam paign. The conference was continued at a late hour tonight, after a dinner tendered to Mr. O'Sullivan, of Lowell, Mass., the newly elected secretary of the notification committee, at the Lin coln Hotel, by Lincoln Typographical union, at which Mr. Bryan was a guest. Finances and Spellbinding. These conferences with Mr. Bryan had to do In a general way with the outline of the coming campaign, to gether with a tentative plan that has already been formulated for the financ ing of the coming political struggle. A general speaking campaign for Mr. Bryan In different parts of the country also came up for consideration, but no definite dates, whlcn would include a campaign of the Middle West, were de finitely decided upon. Reports re ceived by the National committee, how ever, were shown to Mr. Bryan and it was generally decided that In view of the situation disclosed in Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, and other Middle Western states, an active speaking campaign in which Mr. Kern would take an equally prominent part would be waged in those states. Mack Is Cheerful Prophet. Regarding the campaign and the several conferences had with Mr. Bryan today and tonight, Mr. Mack says : "While I am here principally to at tend the notification ceremonies, I have discussed with Mr. Bryan tonight, and will also discuss tomorrow, the general plan of the campaign. It ha been my fixed pur pose in this campaign to deal with actual facts and these I have communicated to Mr. Bryan, telling him that conditions as I have found them and as they have been reported to me by National Committee men and well-known Democrats all point to his election to the Presidency. "Ohio, Indiana and New Tork will go Democratic . and I have told Mr. Bryan that I consider Wisconsin a debatable ground. Let me say to all Democrats that the Democratic campaign is making more than satisfactory progress."' . Kern Bubbles With Hope. Mr. Kern has every confidence In the election of the Democratic ticket. If every man does his duty. Speaking of the situa tion tonight, he said: "I have told Mr. Bryan that conditions are more than favorable, while It is too early to make predictions It would seem to me from reports received from the most conservative sources that if every Democra't would lend his aid in this campaign as I believe he will, the Na tional ticket will be elected. This much I feel that Indiana is safely In the Demo cratic column and, while I have been but a few days in Iowa, where I made a couple of speeches. I have learned suffi cient to make me believe that Iowa Is an extremely doubtful state. 'No definite plans have been made for my speech making tour, and it is unlikely that I will go on the 1 stump until after - my notification." During the rest of the week Mr. Bryan will engage himself with the considera tion" of Democratic campaign text-books. Conferences will be held with the com- mIha. it, t. nrpnftntt nn. wnicn is com posed of John E. Lamb, chairman; Joseph S. Daniels, of North Carolina, head of the literary bureau of the National Com mittee, and R. L. Metcalf, editor of the Commoner. Bryan Invited to Coast. Charles B. Edelman. of California, who called on Mr. Bryan during the morning, was insistent that the Democratic nom inee should visit California and make a couple of speeches. He said California was satisfactorily Democratic, but he told Mr. Bryan that If he went out there it would be doubly so. The Californians, especially the labor union men. Mr. Bryan was told, were greatly pleased with the two planks of the Denver platform relat ing to Asiatic immigration and the regula tion of writs of Injunction. "The labor union men of San Fran cisco." Mr. Edelman said, "are now united, our party is united and we expect to plant California In the Democratic column." Mr. Bryan took under advisement the making of a journey to the Coast, al though he practically reiterated his de termination to remain home during Oc tober. His plans for September, although not fully matured, are such as to prevent his going to the Pacific Coast that month. Discord in Illinois. I. S. Field, of Baltimore,, a member of the notification committee, assured Mr. Bryan that Maryland Democrats were united In support of him this year. L. W. Chambers, of Jacksonville. HI., Informed Mr. Bryan that the Republican party in Illinois is torn to pieces. Mr. Chambers believed Bryan and Stevenson would carry the state because, as he ex plained, he did not see, in view of things that Messrs. Ueneen and Yates were say lng about each other, "how any decent Republican can vote the Republican ticket." RECALLS HIS E iOY Sultan" Removes Minister of Old Administration.

Mehmed All, Son of Fugitive, Izzel Bey, Supplanted by Bitterest Enemy, Consul In Xew York. Defends His Father. . WASHINGTON, Aug. 11. Mehmed All Bey, the Turkish Minister to the United States, today admitted that he had re ceived advices from his government re calling him from his post here. His recall did not come as a great surprise, as in view of the conditions In Turkey it was to be expected. Persistent rumors have been rife to the effect that the Min ister would be recalled, but it was not until last night that a positive statement regarding the matter was received and this came in a cable dispatch to the As sociated Press from London. Succeeded by His Enemy. Mehmed All Bey Is sorry to leave the United States, because he says he likes the country, but, as he has pointed out heretofore, his recall is, after all, a com paratively small matter. Munjl Bey, Consul-General at New York, has been appointed charge d'affaires here pending the arrival of a new minister from Tur key and Is expected to arrive here tomor row. It is significant that the recall of Meh med All Bey and the appointment of Munjl Bey follows closely upon the heels of an attack made upon Izzet Pasha, father of the retiring minister, by the latter. Mehmed Ali today authorized the Associated Press to make a general denial of these charges, laying particular stress upon the accusation that he was involved In the Armenian massacres. Did Xot Incite Massacres. "Izzet Pasha was not the instigator of the Armenian massacres," he said through his interpreter, "and it Is no'.able that at the time of these massacres he occupied no political position, being pres ident of the commercial tribunal, an or ganization which Included In its member ship both Europeans and Turks. When Izzet Pasha resigned that position after six years in order to enter the Council of the Sultan, his retirement was hailed with regret by the members of the trib unal. If he had been a 'grafter,' as ia charged, he would not have been held In such high esteem," retary to the Turkish sultan, is in Amer ica. This opinion Is also held by many in the Turkish, Syrian and Armenian quar ters. Munjl Bey states that he talked over the telephone on Sunday night with Izzet Pasha's most Intimate friend and companion and is convinced rtiat the fugi tive secretary is with him. It is believed that after Izzet Pasha escaped from Con stantinople on a British ship, he landed In Italy and made his way to America either directly or by way of England. "We are sure Izzet was in New York on Sunday," said an Armenian revolu tionist, "and that he is accompanied by an Interpreter, who speaks Engllsl per fectly and acts as body guard as well. He could not remain In hiding 24 hours, no matter how much money he had. He might conceal himself temporarily In the French quarter or among Germans, be cause he speaks both languages. His knowledge of English is exceedingly llm- rited. We will know very soon and then- well, wait and see." ARMENIAN'S STAY AT HOME Abandon Intention to Come to Amer ica, Now Turkey Is Free. TlrLIS, Aug. 11. The Armenian lead ers are endeavoring to check the tide of emigranta and are also trying to Induce those In Turkey, on account of the perse cutions, to return to Armenia. Over 1000 Armenians who gathered at Batoum to take steamers for America have aban doned their plans, since the proclamation of the Turkish constitution, and will take advantage of the Sultan's permission to return to Turkey. would purchase the land at a higher rate than the original cost. To procure such a transfer of timber land the purchasers would be obliged to commit perjury, and when disclosures were made of that nature the Federal Government acted In the matter.
