TOKIO, Oct. 16. The unexpected de
lay In the arrival of the American At
lantic flret. which has encountered
thick and stormy weather off the shore
of the southern islands of Japan, where
navigation at any time Is somewhat
dangerous, haa caused much disap
pointment tn Yokohama and Tokio,
owing to the enforced postponement of
the elaborate reception planned for the
Americans. Some parts of the pro
sramme. which provided some form of
entertainment for nearly every hour
of tho time after the arrival of the
fleet at Yokohama was scheduled for
the 17th, will have to be abandoned
entirely, which means that none of
Saturday's programme can be carried
out as planned.
Latest reports from the southern
Islands indicate the weather is now
clearing up.

A wireless message reports that Ad
miral Sperry. his officers and the en
listed men were at that moment wit
nessing the maneuvers of the Japanese
vessels off the Island of Hyushu, in

The first official greeting to Admiral
Sperry was from Vice-Admiral Minoru
Saito. Minister of the Navy. Baron Salto
extended to the approaching fleet a
hearty welcome on behalf of the nation
and said that all Japan Is anxiously
awaiting Its arrival.
The earliest wireless messages report
all the ships of the American fleet in
splendid condition.

of Tokohama. Sixteen welcoming men-of-war
will salute and S3 harmless guns
will voice the sentiment of the who'o
people of Japan.
The first scene of the first act of the
week's engagement of the American fleet
in Japan will doubtless be the most im
pressive, but every number on the long
programme, carefully prepared and as
carefully rehearsed, will be new evi
dence that the welcome found in Japan
has been unexcelled, unequalled, perhaps,
by any of the hearty welcomes extend!
to It since it left the Atlantic seaboard.
Sixteen Japanese war vessels are even
cow awaiting the battleships at their
buoys and throughout the visit each bat
tleship will haie officers and men re)
resentlng the entertaining Emperor and
people at Its beck and call.
Flags Intertwined Everywhere.
A high Japanese Admiral, speaking of
October 17. said: "When the first gun
of welcome sounds, American week will
have begun and a new page will be
turned In the history of the relations
between the two countries."
Immediately the vessels come to an
chorage. Captain Dougherty, the naval
attache of the American Embassy, will
board Admiral Sperry's flagship and the
exchange of visits between the Admirals
and officers from ship to ship will com
mence. While this is going on thousands of
prsjona ashore, lining the basin of the
harbor and occupying every vantage
round, will wait the first landing. Two
special landing places have been ar
ranged in the center of the Tokohama
bund, a broad avenue facing the aea.
They are for the exclusive use of the
fleet's boats. By official orders the
American flag will everywhere be dis
played with the Japanese flag, and at
night every house in Yokohama and To
kio. as well as in the villages between
the two places, will put out lighted lan
terns having the American and Japanese
flags on them.

hard driving before the American Em

Embassy. This over, the return to the
palace will give a chance for a breathing

ing tour of his home state with a large
meeting in this city tonight, feeling that
Nebraska can be safely counted .in the
Democratic column this year by a larger
majority than he received in 1896. It
was a notable day. both In point of num
ber of speeches, size of crowds addressed
and the vigorous manner In which Mr.
Bryan spoke to his audiences.
A large portion of the day Mr. Bryan
spent in his old Congressional - district,
and the enthusiasm which prevailed on
his tour of the state was Intensified by
the fact that these people gave him his
first political distinction and have fol
lowed him with Increasing confidence as
he fought his way up the ladder.
Cheer Favorite Son.
Today they showed their affection for
him by demonstrations at every station
and by crowds the like of which the
towns had never seen before.
Speaking began early today and con
tinued throughout the day. More than 20
stops were made, and at each place Mr.
Bryan talked longer than he had been
scheduled for. His addresses were more
aggressive than they have been during
the week. -
In discussing the panic at Tecumsen
he said Republicans are threatening a
panic in case of his election.
"There will be a panic In one family."
ho "and that will be the Taft fam
ily, for Mr. Taft's Federal salary will
be withdrawn for the first time In more
than 20 years."

Congressional. At Diller, Mr. Bryan dis
cussed the planks asking for the el po
tion of Senators by direct vote of the
people and the publicity of campaign
funds.
"I want a law," he said, "which will
make the Republican party take the peo
ple into Its confidence and let us know
how heavily the Standard Oil Company,
the Steel Trust, the Harvester Trust and
all the other trusts have mortgaged the
Republican party by campaign contribu
tions." At Dell, a small vllllge. there were sev
eral hundred people at the depot. Houses

countered during the day was gathered

ing to restore harmony between the em

GIVES REPUBLICANS ADVICE
Parker Says Party Needs Corrupt
Practices Act.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. Oct. 15. The
passage of a corrupt practices act was
declared by Judge Alton B. Parker, In
a speech here tonight, to be the remedy
for high misdemeanors in Republican
ranks. He declared that the only way to
secure the passage of such an act wasio
elect Bryan and Kern and a DemocraTic
Congress. In making his argument for
the passage of the law. Judge Parker
quoted liberally from the Roosevelt
Ilarriman controversy, a year or so ago,
about campaign contributions. Mr.
Parker declared his belief that It would
be impossible to secure reform in the
matter of campaign contributions from
the Repubiirans."
"All are tied to corporations by prom
ises to protect them," he said.
On the other hand. Mr. Bryan, he de
clared, had no halter around his nerk.
but had' fought in the open for publicity
of campaign contributions.
Judge Parker referred to the pledge
for injunction legislation and denied that
it would, cripple the power of the courts.
Contempt, he declared, was an act com
mitted in the sight of the court, and It
was not injustice for the Judge to punish
it on the spot. But to punish a man for
contempt of court for the violation of an
Injunction was uiTJnst, for such violations
were never in sight of the trial court.
Trial by jury in such cases was simple
justice he declared.
The Republicans, he said, would never
reform the tariff until it was compelled
to publish a list of compalgn contribu
tions. .
RERX DRAWS GLOOMY PICTURE
Bryan Only Man to Restore Govern
ment to People.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15. John W. Kern
made an address before the Commercial
Travelers' Association of New York at
noon today. Two conditions, said Mr.
Kern, confronted the American business
man: on one hand Jhe action of mighty
wealth in the hands of a few. and on the
other, millions of workingmen seeking
emplevment, and a steady lowering of
the s'ancard of living among the people
by reason of increased cost of living.
"William J. Bryan Is the logical man
to restore the Government to the people
to whom it belongs." he said. Opposed to
these conditions, he said, as a result of
12 years of "Republican misrule." were
the "accumulations of mighty wealth in
the hands of a few. which wealth is
flaunted In the faces of the people."
DENIES BUSINESS IX DANGER
Kern Given Rapturous Reception by
Tammany Braves.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15. "Should not the
fact that men believe that a candidate
for the Presidency intends, if elected, to
violate the pledges made by him and his
party, be a most potent reason why hon
est and patriotic men should withhold
their support from him and his cause?
"Should the fact that a candidate for
the Presidency is regarded as so honest
as to he Incapable of violating his plat
form pledges be an argument against his
election?"
These questions, put by John W. Kern,
Democratic nominee for the Vice-Presidency.,
to a crowd that filled every avail
able foot of room in Tammany Hall to
night, were answered by an outburst of
cheering.
Mr. Kern was given a warm greeting
when he entered the hall and later when
he was joined on the platform -by Lieutenant-Governor
Chanler, Democratic
candidate for Governor of New York,
the two men were kept, busy for several
minutes, bowing their acknowledgments
of the plaudits of the crowd. Mr. Kern
was Introduced by William Sohmer, a
prominent Democrat.
Mr. Kern said that no honest business
interest m this country had anything to
fear from the election of Mr. Bryan, but
that the mission of the Democratic party
was to build up business and business
enterprises, not to destroy them.

the City of Astoria, a suit to recover JS20,
OiiO damages for injuries alleged to have
been sustained by falling on Eleventh
street, near the regatta grandstand on
the evening of September 2. 1907. and it
will be filed at once In the Federal Court
at Portland.
The- answer, in addition to making a
general denial of the allegations con
tained in the complaint, asserts that the
place where the accident occurred was not
a street, had never been improved by the
city, but that It was used for a private
wharf and railway line by the owners, the
Astoria & Columbia River Railroad Com
pany, upon which whatever duty there
was to keep the place In repair for pub

Federal Court Summon Man of
Brain Storms to Testiry In Bank
ruptcy Proceedings Prom
ises Return to Asylum.
NEW YORK. Oct. 15. It was an
nounced here tonight that Harry K.
Thaw might go to Flttsburg next Sunday
morning, soon afterward to testify In
connection with the bankruptcy proceed
ings now pending against him in that
city. This information was given out
after a conference had been held by Dr.
Amos Baker, assistant superintendent
of the Matteawan Asylum, where Thaw
is confined, and Asa Bird Gardener, spe
cial representative of the Attorney-General,
appointed to take charge of the
Thaw case in behalf of the state.
A writ Issued by the United States
Court in Pennsylvania, commanding Dr.
Robert E. Lamb, superintendent of the
Matteawan Hospital, to produce Thaw in
Pittsburg was served on Dr. Lamb today
and Dr. Baker, his assistant, hastened to
New York from Fishklll Landing, where
the hospital is located, to consult with
Mr. Gardener also about the writ. In
the meantime Albert H. Meyer, Thaw's
attorney, and Rober O'Meara, a friend
and business agent of the Thaw family,
had seen Mr. Gardener and explained to
him the purpose of the new writ.
Mr. Gardener had objected to a pre
vious writ issued by the Pennsylvania
court, demanding the production of Thaw
in Pittsburg, and the special Attorney
General had succeeded in having the writ
dismissed, so that Thaw's representatives
had a new writ Issued and they expected
to have Mr. Gardener comply with the
form.
Mr. Gardener says that the Thaw rep
resentatives have promised not to put
any obstacles in the way of having Thaw
returned to New York in case he appiars
in Pittsburg and, as this was the ma;n
contention against the prisoner's being
taken there, Mr. Gardener says he does
not see how he can successfully oppose
the new writ.

Soap is not a bit of cleansing good until it is
mixed with water and made into suds. And then
it still needs the rub-rub-rub of human muscle.
GOLD DUST works in an entirely different
way instantly and totally dissolves in hot or cold,
hard or soft water and, without any aid from
you, starts to cleanse.
GOLD DUST is more than soap better and
more economical. It is a powder of magic power
but rightly directed power,, that leaves the wash
wnite, sweet, wuuicsuiiic.
Use vour brains, not
your muscle I
Throw away youc
soap, get GOLD DUST,
and simply use it accord
ing to the directions on
the package.

Twins do your work."
