They are the best engines made and en-
brace every new invention that can add to
their efficiency. They are expected 90 be

"More Light From Bryan Wanted"

SAVANNAH, Ga, Aug. 5.-Editor Nora
ing Netos:: "Guyton'sn communication in
yesterdays MORNING News, stating the at.
titude OF Efingham's democrats toward the
candidacy of Col Wright, aud calling upon
Bryan's delegates to disclose the course they
intended 20 pursue in the convention, was
an able. apt and well directed article. But
'Guyton, no doubt. deeming IL needless.
in view OF the universal sentiment and I'M
Outstanding among Ef1nghams demo-
Gratis, did not dwell with sufficient
emphasis upon the fact that Ehingham
would be satisfied with nothing less than
the unyielding support of the Bryan dele-
gates for her candidate, who will be none
other than Col. Wright. Efingham will
have before the convention but one candi-
date, who will be the nominee OF her Demo
cratic party, and her delegates will vote for
him, and no other, as long the convention
exists. Bryan will not be asked to vote for
any man other than Col. Wright, for
Effngham will not have, nor under the
circumstances would she tolerate, two can
didates in the field. Etflngham contends
that under their instructions Bryan's deleS
gates cannot vote for any man except he
who is the nominee Of her democratic pri-
mary, and she insists that these delegates
obey their instructions and vote for Col.
Wright first, last and all the time.
While on this senatorial question desire
to call attention 20 some contradictory
statements made by certain Bryan county
gentlemen.
Mr.. j. Hartridgs Smith, writing under the
heading OF "More Light From Bryan

by the mas meeting In Bryan

himself who offered the resolution. In or

Appropos of the Cronin Suspects Death
His Attorney Makes "A Statement.
CHICAGO, Dec 1O-W. S. Forrest, who
during the famous Cronin trial was at
torney for Martin Burke, one of the men
convicted for completely in the murder
and who died in Joliet Prison last night,
said to a reporter on hearing of the mans
death:
The last time saw Burke was in Sep
tember. then told him that / would
soon see him again, but work on the case
has prevented me going near Joliet.
l do not know whether Burke made any
statement or not, but there was only
one statement which he could truthfully
make. and that was that he knew nothing
about the case. The whole story will
come out some day because the truth is
ALWAYS on top at last. Burke's case has
not been formerly presented to the
Supreme Court and now we will simply
drop it.
Burke was a man Of no mechanical
skill, simply sewer digger, and in m,
opinion he was worked to death in the
cooper shop at Joliet prison"

A PLEA FOR THE ARMY BILL

The German Minister OF War Champions
the Measure at Its Introduction Into the
Reichstag- g-EngIish Physicians Think
Mrs. Maybrick's Condition Does Not
warrant Release-other Foreign News.
BERLIN. Dec. 10.-The army bill was
introduced to day in the Reichstag for its
eighteenth reading General Won kalten-
born -Stachau, minister of war, accom-
panied the introduction of the bill with
a long and earnest speech in its sup
port.
He declared that Germany must be pre-
pared to enter, at any moment, into a
final war. which would dwarf all pre-
ceding wars, in the magnitude Of the
forces engaged, and Of the issues TO be
decided. II was imperative that every
man in Germany able to bear arms should
be ready to respond when called upon
The bill was a measure of supreme
necessity, and demanded no sacrifice that
the patriotism of the nation should not
be willing TO grant, and no sacrifice
greater than what other nations Were
making in preparation for the mighty
struggle that might at any time begin.
II was in obedience 20 the supreme need
of preparing Germany for that struggl'
that the bill had been prepared, and The
government hoped and expected that Il
would receive the support of everyone
interested in maintaining the integrit,
of the fatherland, and in defending
those advantages which IL had cost 81
much of German blood and German en-
ergy to obtain.
The war minister described at length
the details of the bill. and showed tha
every effort had been made to make th
burden as light as prudent regard 70
the security of the country ana Tn
efficiency of the army would permit
The address was favorably receives
and the utterances of General Vol
Kaltenborn -Stachau in regard to tn
almost certainty of great Europea
war at an early date evidently produces
a profound impression as confirming th
predictions Of Chancellor Caprivi on th
same subject.

TACOMA, WASH. Dec. i0.--The wife,
family and friends of Lineus e. Post, a
well known citizen of Tacoma, believe
he has either gone crazy or committed
suicide in Chicago or New York over
business disappointments.
Until ten days ago Post was president
Of the Tacoma Building and Savings as

Tacoma theatre company both Of which
corporations are controlled by George w.
Vanderbilt, youngest son of the Wander
bilt family.
Post transacted large part Of Wander

new Seattle theatre in which Vanderbilt
is also interested.
While here early in the fall Mr.. Van
derbilt became convinced that Post was
not giving proper attention TO business
and directed that he be retired
Post hurried east, expecting on his re.
turn 20 be made manager of both the
Tacoma and Seattle theatres On Novem
Der 10 he telegraphed his wife from New
York that he would start home that

Western switchmen To Cast Fortunes
with Their Rock Island Brethren.

W eoIefn HWAlcnmen 10 Cdhl Eoftuhth
with Their Rock Island Brethren.
DENVER, COL, Dec. 10-It was ru.
mored here last night that switchmen on
the Denver and Rio Grande and the Un
ion Pacific, if necessary, would strike
out of sympathy with the Rock Island
operators.
The Rock Island Company uses the
Union Pacific and Rio Grande tracks to
Denver and Colorado Springs, having a
contract with the two latter roads which
calls for the use of their tracks unless it
is made impossible by Providential inter
ference.
If either Of these two roads should re-
fuse to handle the Rock Island trains, it
will be liable for any loss that the Rock
Island may be put to. On this account
the Denver and Rio Grande and Union
Pacific will have to stand by the Rock
Island, and if the switchmen strike it
will cause a tie-up on the two first
named roads. The Rock Island claims
that but twelve out of fifty.one operat-
ors between Colorado Springs and
Phillipsburg, Kas., have struck, while
the strikers assert that with but few ex
ceptions, all the men have gone out.

The Strange Story Told by Young
Woman Found Starving in a. Lumber

The Strange Story Told by Young
Woman Found Starving in a. Lumber
Yard.
NEW YORK, Dec. 1S.-East evenings
young woman giving her name as Lizzie
Mulvey, was discovered lying on the
ground behind pile of boards in lum-
Der yard on Eleventh avenue, between
oath and 25th street. Life was almost
extinct and an urgency call for an ambu-
lance was sent in.
Before the arrival of the ambulance,
the police had removed her to the Office
Of the yard and queStioned her. Her
story indicates that she is a victim of
most cruel assault. After giving her
name she said she worked in a store
and that last Saturday evening she was
induced to take dinner with a stran-
ger.
She refused to eat much, and wante
to 90 home; but he finally induced her to
take drink She became dazed, and he
offered to take her home. Instead he
took her into the lumber yard telling her
that it was a short cut and there as
saulted her
She says she had lain there ever since
for six days and nights-unable to at
tract attention and too weak to move
She spoke in dazed and disconnected
way, and it was difficult TO understand
what she said.
When asked where her home was she
moaned and asked to be taken home At
last so near deaths door was she that it
was decided to leave her alone until she
had been strengthened by a nights rest
and nOurishment
At the New York hospital it is said that
she must have been starving and exposed
to the stress of rough weather for al
least thirty six hours. She had un-
doubtedly undergone the most brutal
usage.
The woman is about 90 years of age,
is well formed, of medium height, and
her face is pleasing in expression. How
ever, last night it was drawn and lined
with long privation and suffering. Hei
clothing is well-made and neat and
shows signs of care in spite of its ex
posure to the rain of the past week.
