ALL KINDS OF RUMORS ABOUT HARRIMAN Ifnlted TrcM rfl Wire. Now York, Aug. 26. Wild scones were enacted at the stock market this morning caused by alarming roports that tho truo condition of EJ. II.

Throughout the street It Is ru mored that his Illness Is of a cancer ous nature, and that a grave- opera tion on tho wizard is Imminent Heavy early Iosbcd of Harriman stocks caused a general weakness In tho marlcot, Ycstorday Union Pa cific closed weak nt 20R& and today It fell below 202. At Arden no In formation regarding Harrlman's con dition has been given out, and all attempts to learn If tho rumor Is truo have been unsuccessful.

James J. Mill, If tho Minnesota man Islaturo to grant rights to tho public la really looking for it, n has been domain in perpotulty, because tno reported brciont ROnorfltlon, ho wld, has no' right to legislate for future pnes, which have thoff own problems to "work out and their own lives to llv. "When any attempt Is made to cor feci evils rcMiltlng from this miscon ception Of power, or misconduct of 6ur representatives, straightway there Is drafting into service tho ttmo serving and ancient defender of ev ery wrong our well known friend, vested rights. No matter what tho basis of this right, whothor tho bloody sword of tho conqueror or tho grafting nldormanlc hero of a nroad way steal, 'vested rights' Is there claiming protection for 'vested Inter ests.' No matter If tho mnn who for a consideration robs tho pcoplo, is clothed In tho stripes of a convict, the vote ho cast Is potent enough to grant his successors an Intercut, thu ownership of, or tho right to use ex clusively forever, nnd, often without control, stmrts or other valuable rights or proporty belonging to the pcoplo. "A striking Illustration of what 1 mean Is tho policy of granting watoi powera In porpotulty If today it was proposed to grant under a blanket law all of Its water powers to one man, or to one corporation, public opinion would drlvo dishonored from tho vtato every participant In the act. Yet, as n matter of fact, every legislature In every stato of tho Union, excepting tho statu of Oregon, cau today grant to ono man and to his heirs nnd assigns forever ewry water power over which tho stato has Jurisdiction. Moroovcr Investigations havo disclosed that it Is a fact that there exlsta today a schomo by which unless restrained In somo way, sub stantially all of the water powers of this country will bo concentrated in tho hands of a fow in on. Such n mo nopoly as this, if It should come to its full fruition, will ovorshadow all othors In Importance and power. "It Is a matter of fact that ox Presldont RooeveH regards tho In auguration of the c mservntlon move numt as tho groatost act of his ad ministration To Inaugurate required a Hoosovelt; to continue It will tak men Inspired by the samo unsold h devotion to the public good. I am not surprised that has opponents n? well as advocates The stnko Is to big that It will require unyielding purpose and unflagging real to pro. tect the wealth of tho peoplo against Individual arced. "Fortunately we have for a leader ono who for years pout has stoo-1 steadfast and true in the interests of the peoplo one who in season and out of season has never faltored, but has upheld the banner of conserve, tlon, ono who abovo all others Is re spans'blo for this great movement, and who, In my Judgment, represents the highest typo of American citizen ship. 1 refer to Clifford Plnchot."

BITNER AIDED ADAMS; TURNED HORSE LOOSE There woro two stories In Tho Journal yesterday which, though the reporters did not know It, belonged togothor. Ono was of tho escaping of Convict Adnms, who was aided by ox-Convict S. II. nitner, tho latter hiring n team of Yannko, which ho failed to return. Tho other was a brlof mention of n horso caught by 8. E. Kollman day boforo yesterday and K'lt In tho stable of H. A. Clcrlte. Investigation this morning shows thnt tho horso caught by Kollman was tho ono hired by nitner of Mr. Ynnnko. It seems thnt Dltncr, as suspected, went (o (ho School for (ho Foeblo Minded nnd picked up Adams. Which direction thoy wont la unknown, but It Is probable that Illtnor did not want to face a charge of horso steal Ing, so after getting a good start hu evidently bonded (he horso for homo and turned it looso. Nothing has yet been hoard of either Illtnor or Ad nma, out mat tney win ue picked up is pretty certain. CHINAMAN REFUSED TO REMAIN DEAD Vancouver, I?. C, Aug1. 36.
