Haskell Suit Under Difficulties.
in
MRS. HEARST SCREAMS
orficer Finds Editor In Bathroom on
Train Haskell Claims $600,000
Damages Hearst Invites
Others to Sue Him.
OMAHA. Oct. IS. After a dramatic
scene on the Union Pacific train No. 2
last night. In which the door of his
stateroom was burst open by a deputy
sheriff, Willii-in R. Hearst, the millionaire
editor, was served with papers notifying
Mm that suit for $600.0u0 had been brought
against him for slander and libel by Gov
ernor Charles N. Haskell, of Oklahoma.
In the Douglas County. Nebraska, District
'ourt. The summons was served by
Deputy Sheriff Stewart for Smythe &
Ftuythe of Omaha, who are Mr. Haskell's
attorneys in the damage suit.
The suit was filed in the District Court
at 10 o'clock last night, after which the
papers were Immediately withdrawn. It
was known that Mr. Hearst would pass
through Omaha last night on his way
from Seattle to New York, and plans
were laid accordingly.
Vnlon Pacific train No. 2 was due at
1:40 o'clock, but d.d not arrive until 11:30
o'clock. Mr. Stewart was on hand with
orders to serve the summons on Mr.
Hearst, but had a trying time in doing so.
Mrs. Hearst Denies and Screams.
A knock on the door of Mr. Hearst's
interoom elicited the information
through the door from the editor's wife
that he w?s not in the room, but had
gone to the depot to send a telegram.
Not to be cheated, the deputy sheriff de
manded admittance in the name of the
law. saying that, if he were not ad
mitted, he would break down the door.
Then ensued a dramatic Bcene. Mrs.
Hearst, on tlie Inside, screamed out that
he was alone and would admit no man,
snd the deputy decided to carry out his
threat to break in. Using his shoulder as
battering-ram, he crashed through the
door and was met by Mrs. Hearst, par
tially disrobed, apparently on the verge
f hysteria.
Nothing daunted, although Mrs. Hearst
rushed screaming through the door out
Into the aisle. Mr. Stewart started to
kirk In the door of the toilet-room ad
joining the stateroom
Hearst Found When Door Broken In
Then it was that Mr. Hearst emerged
and accepted the papers which the deputy
' thrust out. Mr. Hearst said that the sum
mons was entirely unexpected: that he
had not the least suspicion that any
thing of the kind was to occur in Omaha.
"Why did you refuse admittance to the
officers V he was asked.
"Because myself and wife were retiring
for the night." explained Mr. Hearst.
"Frankly. I don't believe this case will
ever come to a trial, and the knowledge
that this suit has been filed does not dis
turb me in the least. When Governor
Haskell "id not very long ago that his
only rer.0n for not bringing action
against me was his lack of funds, I of
fered to donate the neceswary amount
from my own pocket, and this offer still
holds good."
Examination of the door of the state
room disclosed the fact that nt damage
had been done aside from breaking the
locks of the door.
Basis ol I.ibol Suit.
The petition In the case is as follows:
"Plaintiff for his cause of action states
that at all times herein mentioned, de
fendant was and now is the owner and
publisher of a certain newspaper, pub
lished daily in the city of Chicago. 111.,
and known as the Chicago Examiner;
that said newspaper is given a wide and
extensive circulation in said city and
state and In the entire United States and
especially in the States of Illinois and Ne
braska. "That at the times herein mentioned
the plaintiff was and is now the Governor
ot Oklahoma: that he was chosen chair
man of tiie platform committee which
drafted the National platform for the
Democratic party In the Presidential cam
paign of 1!0S and was later chosen treas
urer of the National Democratic Commit
tee, and that as fcuch public servant and
party official he enjoyed the public confi
dence and esteem of his own state and of
the pople throughout the United States.
' "That on September 19. J 90. because
of his hatred, malignity and til will
ngalnst plaintiff, defendant maliciously,
wantonly and wickedly spoke at Mem
phis. Tenn.. and on September 10. 1908.
printed and published in his said news
paper, of and concerning the plaintiff,
the following false defamatory and li
belous article, to wit:
Called Him Stuntlard Oil Tool.
"'I have shown how the Democratic
party altered its platform to suit the
Stan. lard Oil Company and made Mr.
Haskell, who, was an agent of the
standard Oil Company, the rhairman of
their committee on platform.
" I have shown how the Democratic
party first held nut Its hand to the
Standard Oil Company and then ap
pointed this small Haskell as its Na
tional treasurer to take up the collec
tion. ' 'Here we have a President who ap
parently d'es not heed his advice and
then we have a Standard Oil tool made
chairman of the committee on platform
at the National Democratic convention
and treasurer of the Democratic cam
paign fund.
" 'Why was Mr. Haskell placed In
these Important positions in the Demo
cratic partv? It was first to make a
platform that will hold the Standard
oil and then to make a proposition that
will hold up the Standard Oil.
" Mr. Bryan says that the Republican
party cannot possibly be sincere in Its
attitude against the trusts with Mr.
Dupont. a member of the powder trust,
at the head of its speakers' committee.
"'My friends. Mr. Mooney. who is one
c-f tiie best editorial writers in the
United States, emphasizes that point in
this morning's Commercial Appeal.
" 1 am going to subscribe to his paper
in tlie hope that he will tell me some
time later how the Democratic party
can possibly be sincere in its attitude
against tlie trusts with a Standard Oil
tool placed at the head of Its platform
committee and then at the head of its
treasury.'
Injurious Meaning or Charge.
That by said stntement a;id publica
tion the defendant meant and Intended
to Insinuate and charge, and did insinu
ate and charge, and was by the readers
of said article, understood to mean and
charge, that this plaintiff, diaries N.
Haskell, while Governor of said state
of oklahama. and while chairman of said
platform committee, was an 'agent' and
tool' of the Standard Oil Company, and
that as such he "knowingly, wickedly and
. corruptly formed and framed, and asslst
rted li fanning aAd framing jjattoray
of the Democratic party, or a part
- . . . , nrnmnta the itl-
inereoi ia pruievt " ' t -
terest of said Standard Oil Company "to
the prejudice and Injury of good gov
ernment and of the people at large; and
that as treasurer of said Democratic
National Committee he knowl.vgly, wick
edly and corruptly, without honor and
Integrity, took up the collection from
and 'held up' said Standard Oil Com
pany, the defendant insinuating, mean
ing and charging thereby, and was by
the readers of said article understood to
mean and charge thereby, that said
Charles N. Haskell, wickedly disregard
ing and ignoring his duties and obliga
tions to the people at large, did corrupt
lv collect enormous funds from and dis
honorably incurred improper political ob
lations to said Standard Oil Company.
Good Xante Damaged $600,000.
-Plaintiff states that the publication
above quoted, in all its meanings and in
nuendos. was wilfully, wantonly, wicked
ly and maliciously made by defendant of
and concerning the plaintiff. Charles N.
Haskell: that the same was and is false,
whh-h facts were well known by the de
fendant at the time of the publication
thereof, and that the same was and is
designed to and has the tendency to
expose and does expose the plaintiff to
public hatred, contempt and ridicule, to
deprive him of the benefits of public
confidence and social intercourse, and to
blacken, vilify and destroy his good name
and reputation.
"That the false statements above quoted
were published and circulated in various
counties and cities in the state of Ne
braska and in Douglas County. That by
reason of said publication above quoted
plaintiff has been damaged in the sum
of $910,000. and that by reason of said
willful, wanton and malicious act, and
as an example and warning to other
wrongdoers, and as punishment to de
fendant, said William R. Hearst, should
be required .o pay plaintiff exemplary
and punitive damages in the additional
sum of JSOu.OOO.
"Wherefore, plaintiff prays Judgment
against defendant for the sum of $300,000
as actual damages, as aforesaid, and for
the further sum of 100,000 as exemplary
or punitive damages.

DENIES HEARST'S STATEMENT
Haskell Says He Never Offered to
Pay Expense of Suit.
GUTHRIE, Okla., Oct 16. Anent the
statement accredited last night to Will
iam R. Hearst, Governor Haskell upon
his return home from Ohio today, said:
"As to Mr. Hearst's Omaha statement
that he sent me a letter stating that he
would help pay expenses of my prosecu
tion of him and would accept service of
summons by a, notice mailed to him at
any time, both statements are falsehoods.
He has not sent me word of any kind,
neither by letter nor telegram, nor In any
other way. When I found that he had
left ills spectacular caravan on the Pa
cific Coast and was traveling Eastward
incognito. I Immediately guarded every
trunk line gateway, St. Paul. Omaha,
Kansas City. Fort Worth and Houston,
determined that he should not escape
me."
ALIi ARE WELCOME TO SUE

Methods Wants Trial Soon.
CHICAGO, Oct. 16. UDon his arrival
In Chicago today. W. R. Hearst dic
tated the following- statement regard
ing the service upon him at Omaha of
Governor Haskell's libel summons:
"T don't at all care whether the
method of serving the summons was
contrary to law or not. and I am per
fectly willing to receive the summons.
I don't hold anything against the Dep
uty Sheriff except the fact that he did
not say that he was an officer of the
law. He did not say that he had a
summons of any kind or a legal paper
of any kind to serve.
"I was In the bathroom at the time,
not avoiding any one, nor suspecting
any one. Some one knocked at the
door and Mrs. Hearst went to the door.
She thought he was a drunken ruffian.
She declined to let him in and he broke
open the door. I stepped out and
asked what the trouble was all jabout.
and the man said he had a summons
In a civil suit to serve. Of course his
action was high-handed and contrary
to law, but I accepted the summons
notwithstanding, and I invite Mr.
Haskell's suit immediately before elec
tion. "I am going to New York late today
and will pass through Indiana. If Mr.
Taggart has any suit to bring. I will
be pleased to accept his service.
"I am then going through Ohio, and.
If Mr. Foraker has anything in the
way of a suit, I will be on the plat
form waiting to accept his service.
"I make these statements and give
out my Itinerary In order that. If any
suits are to be brought, they may be
brought without any unnecessary an
noyance to my family."
Mr. Hearst also declared that he is
willing to accept service from Sena
tor Bailey and Mr. Bryan, asking only

HAND SORE WITH SHAKING
Candidate Boasts Of Democratic
Honesty in Publishing Campaign
Donations and Calls for Light
on Republican Platform.
DENVER. Oct. 16. W. J. Bryan. Demo
cratic candidate for President, was the
guest of this city for several hours to
night and was given a most cordial recep
tion. In spite of a threatening storm ac
centuated by fitful rainfalls, great crowds
lined the ' streets through which the
candidate rode to the Auditorium, where
he delivered the principal speech of the
programme of spechmaking outlined for
him. All along the line of march he was
received with enthusiastic acclaim. More
than two score of marching clubs from
all sections of the state followed the
candidate through the city's streets, and
as he progressed the glow of red fire and
other pyrotechnics added to the brilliancy
of the electrical effects arranged for the
occasion. ,
Three Overflow Meetings.
On the way Mr. Bryan halted thrice to
address the crowds stationed at points
along the line of march, where It had
been arranged that he should stop and
briefly speak to overflow meetings. It
required three quarters of an hour to
reach the Auditorium, in which were as
sembled 14.000 people. As many more
were compelled to content themselves
outside with a glimpse of the candidate
as he passed through the entrancewey.
One of the features of the parade was
an effigy of an elephant, representing
the Republican party, lying dead from
tlie shafts of Democratic assault, each
Bpear being labeled with Democratic
arguments. such as "Anti-publicity,"
"Ananias Club," "Tariff revision."
Crowds Throughout Trip.
Mr. Bryan boarded a Burlington train
for Omaha immediately after the Audi
torium meeting. A delegation of local
Democrats accompanied lilm.
Unexpected crowds In many of the Ne
braska and Colorado towns and cities
greeted Mr. Bryan on. his trip from
Plattsmouth to Denver today. Every stop
found a crowd assembled and a speech
was called for and given.
The publication of the campaign con
tributions gave Mr. Bryan a text at
many of these places and he varied his
short spedies on the guaranty of bank
deposits with a discussion of the public
ity plank of the Democratic party and
called on the Republican party to be as
honest with the people.
Hands Sore With Shaking.
The heartiness of the western hand
shake has told on Mr. Bryan and today
his hands are sore and swollen from the
hearty grasps given him by his admirers.
Notwithstanding this fact, he extended
his hand as willingly as ever, but fre
quently winced with pain as a big West
erner would come down hard with an
affectionate, greeting.
, In his speech here tonight Mr. Bryan
referred to the fact that tlie Democratic
National committee had published a list
of contributors and he demanded that
the Republican party do the same. He
asked that the Republicans make known
their positions on needed labor legisla
tion and "not betray the toiler with a
kiss."
Calls for More Light.
"What Is it going to do on the Philip
pine question?" he inquired. "It has
enormously increased the appropriations
for the Army and the Navy in prepara
tion for wars that ought never to come.
It has boasted of possessions in the
Orient, while the Filipinos clamor for an
announcement of the Nation's policy.
Let there be light."
Mr. Bryan said that the Democratic
convention declared for the popular elec
tion of Senators, while the Republican
convention overwhelmingly voted against
it. The Republican candidate had mere
ly expressed a personal Inclination In
its favor, but Mr. Bryan insisted that
tills reform was Imperatively demanded
In the Interests of honest government.
In regard to the trusts and the tariff
question, Mr. Bryan said that the Re
publican platform deals in generalities
and its purposes are not made clear. In
conclusion, he said:
"The Democratic party takes the public
into Its confidence and submits its poli
cies to their Judgment. Let the Republi
can party be equally candid and open Its
books and its plans. Let there be light."
