here, DIR. Glennan is making efforts to OBJ
tain resumption of traffic out of Mobile
under the restrictions of the Marine Hos
pital Service. Already Tennessee and Mis-
sissippi have agreed to the modification of
their quarantines so that certain classes of
freight can go through; and Alabama is
expected to agree. so that by Tuesday he

cilitate the traffic, inspectors will be placed
at the principal points to see that the
freight is of the class that can be passed
under the regulations.
The camp of detention at Mount Vernon
will not be ready before the middle of the
week. Accommodations will be prepared
for three hundred, and there are al
ready applications for one hundred. They
will be supported by the government while

proclamation so goods can be shipped from
ulations of the Marine Hospital Service.

board that Mobilians desiring to return
home may come, provided the Mississippi
health authorities will permit them to pass
through the State. In answer TO the in
quiry of the state health officer the Mo

against infected places will be continued.

tions to surround and stamp out the disease

Bancroft has been public entertainer for
four seasons and visited Indianapolis two
years ago, playing at the Grand He first
made hit a parlor magician and his
clever address, taken with his natural apti-
tude for the style of work which made Herr
mann great, won him number of wealthy
friends, who took great stock in him as the
coming American magician. He was we'll
backed and gave a performance along new
lines He depended much on scenery and
other accessories which were not highly
garded by Hermann and Kellar the two
recognized leaders in magic Last year, on
the death of Hermann, Edward Bloom,
Herrmann's longtime manager, took charge
of Bancroft and began to advertise him as
a great magician. 1t was noticed, however,
that Bancroft spent a great part of the
year in playing small towns and one-night
stands. There was little doubt that Ban
croft would have attained greatness had he
lived He was still young man, hard
worker and almost as clever a "talker'' as
Hermann himself.

SPEAKS FOR SOUND MONEY.
Iowa Republican Candidate for Gov
ernOr Opens His Campaign.

REDOAK, Ia, Sept. 25.-The Iowa Re
publican campaign was opened here to-day,
with Leslie M. Shaw, candidate for Gov
ernor, as the principal speaker. Short adj
dresses were made by congressman Hager
and Dolliver and H. M. Miliman, candi-
date for lieutenant governor. Mr. Shaw
said. in part:
1.-The gold standard has been the stand
ard Of this country for many years, and it
is to be, at least, until the leading CONNER
cial nations of the earth shall undertake
the establishment of a double standard.
The last Democratic Governor OF Iowa
showed himself TO be thinking man when
he said in his MarshalltoWn speech, at the
opening of the campaign for the triple al
lance: i cannot bring my mind to believe
that the free coinage of silver at the ra-
ito of 10 to ! with gold is within the
reach of its friends nor can | help the fear
that it would not be desirable, even If at
tainable. / had the pleasure of listening to
two orators of national reputaton-one
eloquent; the other from Minnesota, admit
teddy the most logical of all the advocates
of bmetalhc theories. While these gentle
men may not have had the authority to
speak for the triple alliance, they both as
sumed to speak for it, and declared that
free silver was the issue in Iowa politics
to-day, and that upon it Democracy would
either win or lose; that this issue must
not be abandoned; that the whole tinaHcial
world was looking to Iowa to see whether
she would show a gain in free-silver Senti-
ment. l willingly accept the challenge, and
propose to fight it out on this line, if it
takes till Nov. 2. Personally, l believe the
BILE danger than any other issue and the
tariff question fraught with more blessing
than any other. The free coinage of silver,
if adopted now proposed, would certain
ly revolutionize our financial system, and,
l believe, would practically bankrupt us as
a people. But the continuance of the gold
standard will not in itself alone bring US
that measure of prosperity which was en-
joyed in 1922
Mr. Shaw discussed the tariff question al
length, maintaining these two propositions:
First, in theory, a protective tariff must
of necessity be beneficial to every man,
especially the producer whatever his
product; second, historically the periods of
greatest prosperity in this country, from
its earliest history to the present time,
have corresponded exactly with those pc
RODS embraced within the operation of
protective tariffs"
