Big crowds, manifesting both interest and enthusiasm, have surrounded the Tart party wherever it stopped today In its course over the Great Northern up through Minnesota and North Dakota. The 14 speeches which Mr. Taft delivered during the day and evening worked sad havoc with the splendid voice he started out with this morning and tonight it Is again In bad condition. The day had two features, the Grand Forks. N. D., meeting and the Fargo rally tonight. In both places tremendous crowds were out and In each city the candidate had to make three speeches. The Fargo meeting was made unique by the striking feature of a huge barbecue. Ten steers and 20 sleep furnished food for the multitude. The feast was partic ipated in by thousands of excursionists, some of whom had come from as far as 460 miles distant. Big Welcome at Fargo. It was Just dark when the Taft special reached the end of Its day's run and the people of Fargo were out in force to ex tend a welcome. A torchlight procession. enlivened by the music of H bands, and made picturesque by a squad of mounted cowboys, with their characteristic yells, - escorted the Ohioan through 4he town and out of the forest, where the barbe cue was ready to serve. The speaking here was done in a nat ural amphitheater. In a cleared place in the woods. Log flres had been lighted around the circle where the great audi ence stood and thousands of torches which remained lighted threw a weird glare over the crowd. While Mr. Taft today discussed labor, tariff and the Roosevelt policies at the various points along his route, he made new combinations In his speeches and threw in many touches of local color and human Interest. Local Republicans on Train. Before the North Dakota line was reached, a large delegation was taken aboard from that state. Mr. Hans brough. .who has Just been defeated for re-election and who represents one faction. Joined the party and let It be known that he was for the National ticket. Senator McCumber, who Is credited In aiding- in the defeat of his colleague, was also very much In evi dence on the train as was National Committeeman Kennedy. At Grand Forks, Mr. Taft was escorted through the town to the steps of the T. M. C. A. building, where he talked to an Immense audience. He was then hur ried away to a large skating rink, where he made another speech, and then he ad dressed a crowd which filled the local Opera-House. Speeches were made during the day st St. Cloud. Alexandria, Fergus Falls. Barnesville. Ada and Crookston, Minn. The weather was cold, and light fails of snow were encountered. Mr. Taft will campaign in South Dakota tomorrow, having left here tonight for a night run to Webster, where the day's work will begin. An extended meeting is on the' programme for Mitchell at 1 P. M., and a big rally at Sioux City, la. WOMAN INDORSES TAFT'S VIEWS Prompt Answer From Audience Amuses Fergus Falls Crowd. FERGI'S FALLS. Minn.. Sept. The people of Sauk Center are making merry over what they regard as a fine Joke on Judge Taft. He told them that the question for the voters to determine was whether they wanted to continue a party of action in power or place at the bead of the Government, a party which had done nothing but make misleading proph ecies regarding economic questions. "We don't want to try it," vsald a somewhat elderly woman in the audi ence. "I hope not. Madam; I have no doubt that you are the head of a family of sturdy men. whom you control, and I rely on such intelligent ladies as you to carry out your views," was Mr. Taft's smiling rejoinder. When the train started. Mr. Taft was informed by one of the local statesmen aboard that it was Miss Sylvia Towns end with whom he had the colloquy. The Taft special plunged Into real cold weather as it rushed northward and enow was falling lightly, when Mr. Taft was making a speech at Alexandria. At Alexandria the candidate paid his respects to Mr. Bryan. He said in part: I am Quite sure that, when yon come to think of rfhe results of Democratic control, the lark of prosperity. Indeed the business disasters and the low prices for farm prod ucts and the general business depression which we hsd under four years of Demo cratic rule and then take up the marvelous prnsr-erlty that we had In the last 12 years under Republican rule.

KERN HAD PASS Courtesies From Big Four Found In His Pocketbook. CONNERSVILLE. Ind., Sept. 2S. Spe- cial.) The finding of -a leather notebook with the name "John W. Kern " stamped In gilt on its covers and inslae it a pass over the Big Four Railway, Issued to John W. Kern, and good until December SI, 1908, following the Democratic Vice-Presi dential nominee s visit to the Connersville fair, has brought from Bryan's running mate an admission that he did have a Big Four pass.

A railroad officer, who was asked how Mr. Kern had the pass when the Federal law is so sweeping against the issue of such passes, said Mr. Kern was the com pany's regularly employed attorney, and therefore could be given free transporta tion.

HERRICK STARTS DEBATE Small Minority Headed by Wlscon sin Man Makes Hard Fight. Committee's Many Objections to Postal Savings Banks. DENVER, Sept. 28. The most important discussion in the savings bank section of the American Bankers' Association oc curred at (he afterno.m session, when the questions of postal savings banks and the guaranty of bank deposits were taken up. While if was evident that the sentiment was practically unanimous against postal savings and overwhelmingly against the guaranty idea, a respectable minority tried to prevent action on the latter ques tion, contending that it was a matter for the convention of all the members of the association to decide upon and not for a single section. John Schuette, of Wisconsin, was the only speaker in favor of the guaranty of bank deposits. He opposed the establish ment of postal savings banks on the ground that it would establish 18.000 banks to compete with the other banks of the country. He favored the guaranty bank deposit plan In order to avert the estab llshment of the postal savings banks, and declared that the bankers of the country would have to face one or the other of these issues. Ex-Governor Myron T. Herrick, of Ohio, then offered the following resolution: ..Aeal"st Guaranty Scheme. Whereas. This sarins bank section of the American Bankers' Association represents the savings of 'the people of the United States, and w hereas, The record of these banks for con rvatlsm. stability and unselfish devotion to the interest of their depositors la unparal leled in any country in the world, and Whereas, The loss to their depositors has been so small as to be absolutely a negligible quantity; therefore, be it Resolved. That, Inasmuch as any plan or scheme to make each of these banks re sponsible by taxation or assessment for the acts of one another or to connect them with the National banking system Is economically unsound in principle, confiscatory hi form and inimical to the best Interests of Its depositors, stockholders and borrowers. It would dis courage Individual lnitlaive, the best product of the American mind. It is a specious form of paternalism and socialism. It would tend to encourage speculation and an undue ex pansion of credit. Resolved. That we enter the most solemn protest against enaction into law. either by states or Nation, of any principles so sub versive to sound economics and so revolution ary in character. Oppose Postal Banks. After a heated debate, C. R. Brecken- ridge, of Fort Smith, Ark., offered a sub stitute to the effect that action on the resolution be deferred until after the question came up before the general con vention. This substitute was voted down 32 to 49. and Mr. Herrick's resolution was then adopted. After a discussion of postal savings banks, a motion was carried placing the savings bank section in opposition to the !

Mrs. Donaldson alleges her husband committed bigamy in tils alleged mar riage to Ella Davis in this city two years ago, and further asserts that he was about to marry again, and that his bride-to-be had her trousseau made when her warrant stopped the game.

SIGNIFICANT SAVING GLAUS Donations Concealed if Donor Makes Request. HANDY FOR TRUST CHIEFS Letters Soliciting Subscriptions Re veal Negro In Woodpile Words "Unless Otherwise Stipulated" Are Carefully Inserted. CHICAGO, Sept. 28. (Special.) While William J. Bryan, In letter and speech, ie promising the full publicity of contri butions to the Democratic National cam paign fund, his confidential representa tives secretly are promising Immunity from publicity to such donors as may de sire. Documentary proofs of this fact have been secured. By a cleverly devised scheme the Democratic campaign treas urer can "publish" the "names of all donors" to the campaign fund and at the same time conceal names of members of corporations who desire to help Mr. Bry an's canvass. How Funds Are Solicited A glimpse of the convenient arrange ment is given in a series of letters sent broadcast through the State of Michigan by F. H. Pulte, who writes that he has been "commissioned by the National Com mlttee to solicit funds in that state." F. E. Pulte is president of the Pulte Plumb ing & Heating Company, of Grand Rap ids. Governor C. N. Haskell, treasurer of the National Committee," he writes after making & 'fervid appeal for funds, "will ipail to each contributor a lithographed souvenir report. A complete list of all contributors (unless otherwise stipulated) In the State of Michigan, containing their addresses and the amount contributed, will be published In pamphlet form, copy of which will De mauea to eacn subscriber." Cunning Scheme of Evasion, TTnlesa otherwise stipulated." It will be observed Is the cunningly devised eva sion which makes ft possible for Mr. Bry an's financial agents to gather In large contributions from questionable sources without giving the publicity which the candidate promises in his speeches. AH prospective donor who shrinks from publicity, like the Standard Oil Company, has to do Is to take the hint from the letters sent out on behalf of the Nation al Committee and "stipulate" a suppres sion of his contribution. Most of the appeals for funds being sent out by the Democratic managers contain blank pledges of J5, $10, $25 and $100 each. The prospective contributor is required to sign one of as large a de nomination as possible and return it to C. N- Haskell. Ten days after date payment is required. RIDDER PROMISES PUBLICITY Publish Campaign Donors Oct. 15. Friendly to Union Labor. NEW YORK. Sept. 28. Herman Ridder, (Concluded on Page 2.) ?! IN N. t Man in Greasy Overalls Rebukes Him for Demand to Know Where Train Is. ST. PAtTLv Sept. 2S. (Special.) A station employe in the St. Paul Union Depot who didn't know James J. Hill when the latter was leading a person ally conducted search for the Taft spe clal In the Great Northern yards, had a bad quarter of an hour today. While Taft waited to board his special car and Senator Moses E. Clapp poked fun at the head of the Great Northern road, Jim Hill opened up a line of re marks about railroad employes In gen eral which made several of the Union Depot officials step lively in the pres ence of the "Old Man." Taft and his party returned from the St. Paul auditorium to the Union Depot before the special train had been brought back under the shed. They found no train. President Hill started out In search and soon lost himself In the maze of sidings and interlocking switches. Finally he came upon yardman. "Where's that Taft special train?" demanded Hill. "What business is it of yours where the train Is?" asked the station em ploye, who still did not recognize the "Old Man." '1 am James J. Hill," said the build er of railroads, stepping up closer. "Where's that special?" Then the sta tlon agent "tumbled," and begun the most active exhibition of train hunting which the St. Paul depot had ever af forded. The special was finally located and was soon under the sheds, where he Taft party re-embarked for Min neapolis. HURRICANE OVER ISLANDS Towns Are Wiped Out and Vessels Wrecked. NASSAU, Bahamas, Thursday, Sept. 24 The hurricane from the llth to the 14th instant appears to have originated near Turks Island and swept up the long string of islands running southeast from here. Inauga, Acklins, Crooked. Ragged, Fortune, Long, Watlings, Rumcay, Ex uma and the south part of Andros Island all appear to have suffered. On Long Island the gale blew for two days and the towns are practically obliterated. the principal town, Clarencotown, having only five houses left standing. The in habitants were forced to find shelter in caves and food and water are almost un procurable. - 'The government schooner Sarah E. Douglas was blown from her anchorage at Long Bay and was driven ashore on Long Island. Many other boats were lost, but It will be weeks before the full accounts will reach Nassau. There i no doubt that the loss of life is heavy. The whole countryside, even as far as Cat Island, is scalded and burned as If with fire, from the terrible driving of the salt water across the land. The Government has taken relief meas ures and schooners are being doily dis patched, .laden with foodstuffs, lumber and nails. The recent gale Is said to have ex ceeded In fury the hurricane of 1866, which has always been the standard of comparison.

LAWYERS GET TOGETHER Move of Washington Legal Talent to Keep Oregon Fishermen OTf River Is Checkmated and Fishing Sow Stands as Before. By a restraining order issued yesterday afternoon by Judge Wolverton in the Uni ted States Court, the lone-drawn con troversy over salmon fishing in the Col umbia River between the Washington and Oregon salmon fishers is at an end until such time as the United States Supreme Court has decided the. Chris Neilson case, which will be some time in Decembes. This means that fishing for salmon on the Columbia River Is thrown wide open to regularly licensed fishermen, and it sets at rest all of 'the turmoil and strife caused by the conflicting laws thathave occasioned Master .Fish Warden McAl lister so many sleepless nights and legal entanglements. Washington Move Checkmated. The date set for the hearing of the in junction prayed for by the Washington fishermen was yesterday morning. E. C. MacDonald, of Spokane, Assistant Attor ney-General of Washington, came armed with a petition which, had It been grant ed, would have excluded the Oregon fish ermen from fishing in the Columbia River, while the Washington fishermen could have fished unmolested. The petition for Injunction was adroitly drawn, but Attorney-General Andrew M. Crawford, who has been looking after the legal end of the matter for Master Fish Warden McAllister and Oregon, was not to be caught. Fishing Stands as Before. When the legal talent anDeared in the United States Court yesterday morninz and the matter was -presented, it was in timated to Assistant Attorney-General MacDonald, of Washingon. that if he would amend his petition so as to exenint the entire river, the matter would not be submitted to argument and that it could be settled by -mutual agreement and no opposition to the restraining order would be made. The matter was taken over until the afternoon and the Washington netitinn was so amended that it included fishing over the entire river. Then, when tha case was presented to Judge Wolverton. the injunction prevailed. Under the restraining order Lssnpd hv Judge Wolverton, fishing in the Colum bia River now stands as it did before the two conflicting laws became effective, but uie restraining order only holds until the United States Supreme Court ehall have handed down its decision in tho TJnnn case.

Chris Xellson, around whom tho present fishing controversy hinges, was arrested so long ago that only salmon fishermen remember. He was a Washington fisher man and used a purse seine, a fishing ap pliance permitted by the laws of Wash ington, but prohibited by the laws of Oregon. He was arrested by the Oregon authorities and convicted in the lower courts. The case was carried to the State Supreme Court and Judge- Bean sustained the decision of the lower court, but the Washington authorities agreed to carry the case to the United States Supreme Court, which was done after a long delay and where it now rests.
