DEFIANTLY IGNORES LAW Thrown Out lyrcallj-Klroted Dele-' RaleM and ( onimltlronicn Who IH-plracc II I m Grady Revolts Against Doing Dirty Work. DT IJIYIJ r IiNEKcJAN. N KAV VORK. April . (Special.) The I'rijiooratio party In this state ha been rai-t for the role of Panny Ileever. It Is continuous frforniam-e and the bang !na snea on day In and day out. From one end of the state to the other tmftfrnatlon at hlrh-handcd Tammany methods ta growing- more intense. It has reached such a stage that If you see two men quarreling- on the street, the one best bet is that they are Democrats dis cussing present political conditions. Even Tammany men. in private conversation. admit that the organisation has gone too far, and that the party is hopelessly wrecked In the state. Publicly, of course, they Mirk by Murphy. They have to, or be thrown out of the organisation. Tweed, in his palmiest days, never even !rfmed of the one-man power thst Is enjoyed by the present hosa of Tammany Hall. In New York, delegates to conven tions are chosen at primaries held under strict and easily understood state law. Vhen voters register at annual elections, they likewise enroll In political parties it they see tit. These lists are under the control of the Board of Elections, and a man who does not appear upon It is not allowed to vote at the primaries. Regular election officials preside at these primaries, provision Is made for watchers and there are all possible safe guards to provide for a fair vote and an honest count. Then tha legal presumption is that the delegates who have the largest numher of votes shall be accorded seats in the various conventions. Murphy Throws Out the Klex-t. But Murphy does not see It that way. lie first showed his disapprobation a year ago, when several assembly districts were carried by Tammany men who beat fav orite sons of Murphy. The triumphant victors naturally expected that they would be seated In the Tammany executive committee. But Murphy said. "No." There was no real question that these men were the choice of a majority. Still Murphy didn't like them. So they were kept out. A couple of them made their peace with the organization that means Murphy. The others are still outside tha breastworks. "Tammany tactics'' were introduced In the state convention this year for the first t time. That Is what has made all the trouble, the up-state man not being used t. It. The King County delegates were thrown through the skylight without the slightest excuse In the world. All of the McCarren men had won at the primaries by eomfortablo majorities. In one case the vote, as returned bv the inn.,.in waa 66 for the McCarren ticket and 304 for the opposition. In another It was to rr.. But this did not save ths men who had the majorities. Out they went or, the ground that they had been illegally elected. The real reason, of course, was that Murphy did not want them. Was this what caused the revolution' Not at all. This was simply the over ture. There is a Democratic state com mittee, composed of one member from ch Senatorial district. Members are chosen In the same method as Is followed tn the selection of National committee men. That is to say. the delegates from ejtcn Senatorial district select their man. The unpleasant feature of this, from the standpoint of a boss, is that often persons are chosen who are vociferously Independent. It is far bet ter for the organization that these gen tlemen be kept off the state committee. So Murphy Jammed through a resolu tion reciting that the -following be and are hereby elected members of the state committee." Also that the state commit tee be empowered to make such changes in membership as it sees fit at any tlms. IYior to this the various district dele Rates had elected tbeir committeemen along the old lines. Those who did not meet the approval of Murphy and Con ners simply are not on the committee. That is all. Two cases are particularly glaring. In one of the Buffalo districts. ex-Sheriff Frederick Smith received all the nine dis l trlct votes. But he waa not on the list. was appuea to lor ln- formation on the subject. "Ves. I did it." he said, quite proudly. "I don't like Freddie Smith." Two Glaring; Cases. In Onekla County, State Committeeman 11. L. Fatton did not receive any votes f for the office he holds. Mr. Patton has I recently come out in a long Interview, ! urging that "all differences be forgotten," ; so as to "harmonize the party." Which provokes Samuel Beardsley. . former Railroad Commissioner, and for years leader of Oneida County, to re mark: "Mr. Fatton Is a receiver of stolen iroods. and as. such has his nerve with him In daring to address self-respecting Pemoerats." City Judge O'Connor, of Utica, Is an- other Democrat who has bounded into the limelight. Here Is what he has to say about tha celebrated chairman of the state committee: "If 'Klngey' Conners ever dares to come to I'tlca, and I see him. I will have him arrested s a suspicious character and send him to jail." It might be added that fonners Is afraid that O'Connor moans just what he says. Judge O'Connor Is a positive per son, and nuioh beloved in I'tlca. Year after year he has been elected City Judge, and he Is a Utile Ctar on his own ac count. I'p to date the state chairman has not put the question to a test. Several times since the convention he has passed through I'tlca. but always remains safely hidden inside a Pullman car. Judge O'Connor Is the man who nearly de feated Congressman Jim Sherman two years ago.' His friends say that If he '.'Jails Fingey." he could be elected to the Job In November with ease. William Jennings Bryan Is greatly ex ercised over present conditions. He has held conferences with leading Democrats all over the state, and listened to many tales of woe with great solicitude. The decision not to hold a bolting state Con vention was reached at the earnest re quest of Mr. Bryan. The "peerless leader" has explained that where his heart "bleeds for the ousted delegates," yet he does not see what they can do. For the "lawlessness" was done In the name, and according to the forma of regularity. The tact of the matter is that Mr. ran hopes the trouble will be smoothed over he fere election day. He expects to be the candidate, and warts all the votes possible. A contesting delegation would only add to his troubles. No matter what ihe Denver convention might do Mr. Bryan would be blamed, and receive punishment at the ballot-boxes. This Is why many of the out-and-out Bryan men, nearly all of whom were eager for second convention, have decided that the plan would not be advisable undr ths circumstances. Senator MeCarren. however, will prob ably take his case to the National Con vention. Mr. McCarren does not care In the slightest as to .the effect It will have on Mr. Bryan's fortunes. . He has been accused of many things, but never of being a Bryan man. So he Is perfectly willing to cause a miiup at Denver. He will present the esse of the Brooklyn men to the National Committee, and demand Justice. "Nobody can tell what Mr. McCarren will get." remarked one cynical Democrat today, "but it will cause Byan to get his all right." Passing of Tom Grady. One Interesting feature of the Demo cratic civil war la that It marks the pass ing of State Senator Thomas F. Grady, known for generations as "The Sllver tnnqued Orator of Tammany Hall." Mr. Orady Is the only member of the State Senate who occupied a seat In that body when Orover Cleveland waa Governor. Mr. Cleveland recognised his sterling qualities hy writing a letter to John Kelly, the then Tammany leader, stating that Mr. Grady was "personally objectionable" to him and urging that he be kept at home. This was done, but later Mr. Grady returned to Albany. During recent years he has been the main gun at every Tammany talkfest. Two years ago. as chairman f the committee on credentials he had the delicate task of unseating enough anti-Hearst delegates to show a majority In favor of fusion with the Inde pendence Ieague. He carried out orders, but later made the statement that "This Is the dirtiest piece of work I ever did In my entire political career." At the recent convention Mr. Grady was again slated for chairman of the creden tials committee. He knew what his duty would be and declined to accept It. "Pat McCarren and I have been friends for many years." he said to Mr. Murphy, "we have worked together In the legis lature, and I cannot use tha ax on him." Murphy then yielded a point, and graciously told Mr. Grady he would select another chairman If he (Grady) made It a personal matter. Then he added: "All I will ask you to do will be to make a speech upholding the action taken by the committee. One of your good oid tlme speeches. Tom." Kven He Finally Revolts. And then the rage of Mr. Grady burst forth, the Grady wlro has "taken orders" from Tammany bosses for years and never. murmured no matter what he was asked to do. "I have done a lot of thlncs I am ashamed of, but there is a limit. It Is reached now," he shouted. "Ijast year I threw out delegates so that stiff Hearst could be nominated. I hated to do It. and personally I hated Hearst, but I car ried out my orders. For weeks afterward I was ashamed to look at myself In a glass. And this game Is much worse. You can throw McCarren out If you want to, but I will not say a word to help you along." And Mr. Grady kept his promise. He is the Senator from Murphy's home district, but since the day of the convention Mr. Grady and the boss have not met. It is whispered around Tammany Hall that Tom Grady is to be punished: tha he will be refused a renomination. and entirely forced out of public life. For these are not the days of Independence In Tammany Hall. Nobody Is allowed to act or even think, unless he has special per mission from Murphy. GUILTY INJECDi DECREE FATHER AXD SOX CONVICTED OF KILLING HINDU. TONGS BREAK PEACE War Between Rival Factions Again Stirs San Francisco. THREE CHINAMEN SHOT Three Other Boys Who Fired Into Blackmail's Cabin Must Par Manslaughter Penalty. OREGON CITT. Or.. April 2 (Special.) After deliberating 13 hours, the jury In the case of the State of Oregon vs. John M. Dickenson, William Dickenson, John Dickenson. Karl Ransler and John Riley, charged with the murder of Haman Stneh, a Hindu, near Boring at Jarl & Pagh Brothers' sawmill, on the night of October 31, last, brought In a verdict convicting J. M. Dickenson and his son. William, of murder in the second degree and the other three boys of manslaughter. The penalty for murder In the second de gree is imprisonment for life and the pen alty for manslaughter ia from one to la years In the Penitentiary. The jury recommended Ransler and Riley to the mercy of the court- Sentence will be pro nounced next Tuesday, and George C. Brownell, attorney for the defense, has been given until that time to tile a mo tion for a new trial. Walter Sinclair, who Is accused of the same crime, will have a hearing next Monday, but It is likely that the case against Vernon Hawes, who testified for the state, will be dismissed. The Jury came In at 5 o'clock this morn ing with a sealed verdict, which was opened by Judge McBride when court convened at 10 o'clock. The verdict of murder in the second degree against Dickenson and his son, William, occas ioned no surprise, as the young man fired the fatal shot that resulted In the death of Harnan Singh, and his father made no effort to put a stop to the carnival of crime, though he was the only member of the party who was of a mature age. It was generally believed. however, that John Dickenson, Earl Ransler and John Riley would be acquitted, but it is evident that the Jury believed ail of the prisoners participated in the crime and the only thing that prevented a speedy verdict was a failure to agree as to what degree of murder should be assessed to the live.

Three ' Chinamen were shot In an affair on Wash ington street near Burtlett alley in China town tonight In what Is presumed to be a renewal of the Tong war between the Bing Kung Tong and the Hop Sing Tong. j Trouble has been threatening between the members of these strong factions in I Chinatown for several days and the po lice have been taking extra precautions to prevent trouble.

Jl'OGE DECIDES FOR SETTLER Squatters Can't Be Ousted Tor Bene fit or Reclamation Work. XORTH YAKIMA, Wash.,' April 25. (Special.) In an opinion handed down by Federal Judge Whltson, of the District Court today, the Judge decides for the first time an important point raised under the reclamation act. The Government brought suit to oust Hansen from land on the shores ef Lake Keechelus. which land will be overflowed by the damming of the lakes by the Reclamation Service. Many other owners on Kaches and Keech elus Lakes are involved, this being a test case. These settlers went on the land 17 years ago, under the law permit ting bona fide residents to settle on un surveyed public lands and to have prefer ential right for JO days to make entry on tiling of. the survey. In the suit the Government sought to oust the settler without compensation, claiming that he had acquired no title, no survey having been filed. Judge Whltson finds against the Government contention and says that the reclamation act permitting the with drawal of public lands cannot be con strued in that way, that the settler has acquired rights hy reason of his labor and expenditure upon Improvements and that these rights cannot be confiscated ex cept by direct legislation by Congress; that the preferential right to enter is valuable and that it would not be equit able to forfeit one man's rights in the Interests of some other person to ' be benefited elsewihere by a reclamation pro. )ect of storing water.

These pores and glands are connected with tiny veins and arteries through which they receive, from the blood, the necessary nourishment and strength to preserve their healthy condition, and enable them to perform this duty. So long as the blood is pure and rich the skin will be free from eruption or disease, but when the circulation becomes infected with acids and humors its nourishing and healthful properties are lost, and its acrid, humor-laden condition causes irritation and inflammation o! the delicate tissues and fibres of the pores and glands, and the effect is shown in Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum, or some other distressing, disfiguring skin disease. These humors get into the blood through a deranged or inactive condition of the system. Those members whose duty it is to collect and expel the refuse matter of the body fail to properly do their work, and this surplus or waste matter is left in the system to sour and fer ment and be absorbed into the blood. There are also certain other humors which get into the blood from without. . The juice or milk from poisonous plants, such as poison oak, poison ivy, nettle rash, etc., enters through the open pores of the skin and takes root in the blood. This causes a breaking out which remains for a time and then disappears, but returns at certain seasons of each year. The cause of all skin troubles can be traced to some kind of humor in the blood. Smooth, healthy skins are only possible where the circu lation is pure; and therefore the cure of any skin affection can only come through a thorough cleansing of this vital fluid. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., are valuable only for their ability to keep the skin clean, allay the itching, and tend to reduce inflammation; they Cannot correct the trouble because they do not reach the blood. S. S. S. cures skin diseases of every character and kind, because it purifies the blood. It goes down into the circulation and removes the humors that are causing the trouble, builds up the weak, acrid blood, ana completely cures Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, and all eruptions and dis eases of the skin. When S. S. S. has driven the humor from the blood, and cooled and cleansed the acid heated circulation. every symptom passes away, the skin is again nourished with rich, healthful blood, and comfort is givsa to disease-tortured skins.

The manager of this firm is willing; to admit that he has with this appeal exhausted all the resources at his' command. Ever since the No vember panic, when this concern was so near to being swept from its foundation, it has been one constant liquidation through hard and trying times, until the enormous sum of over $75,000 has been paid, 100 cents on the dollar. Much advice and some urgent appeals were made to the management during those days to let the establishment go on the rocks; but to the present management, necessity, not choice, will be the only master to cause such an occurrence. The usual course, pursued by houses needing financial help has not been taken by this one. We have not attempted to eonceal matters; we have been open and above board with the peo ple.
