STOCKTON, Nov. 3.-General w. III.
L. Barnes addressed magnificent con-
course of citizens of San Joaquin
County in the pavilion tonight. The
eloquent champion of Republican1sm
was given a rousing welcome when he
faced the assembled thousands. The
general had the multitude with him.
and under his oratorical power storms
of applause and waves of merriment
swept over the throng.
General Barnes said that If Mcguire
should suddenly expire he feared the
name Barnes" would be found written
on the dead mans gizzard as he (Barne)
seemed to be the evil genius of the pop
ocratic candidate. AS 70 being South
ern Pacific attorney he said it was the
ethics of the profession to defend even
bad people. He pleaded guilty to hav-
ing had the Examiner for a client, and
even thought he could stretch his sense
of DUTY far enough to include Mcguire.
should that gentleman need his ser
vices He said Mcguire was brilliant
man. and had the most magnificent
faculty of appropriating other peoples
ideas of any one he knew.
The speaker denounced the Popullst
platform to which Mcguire had sub
scribed in the desperate hope of office.
He traced Maguire's record in Congress
and asked the people If this was the
kind of man they wanted for Gov
ernor of the great State which in
twenty years would be the gateway
through which the trade of the Orient
must pass.
The mention of Gage evoked storm
of applause. To the Republican stand
ard bearer he paid the tribute that he
was the most stubborn and honest man
he knew. a. man who would prove a
Jonah to the Southern Pacific or any
corporation or clique which might try
to handle him when he became Gov
ernor.
The address was a complete review
of the issues Of the campaign. 1t was
listened to by 1000 persons.

THE BANKRUPTCY LAWS
INVOLUNTARY FEATURE
Department of Justice Satisfies
Many Business Men and
LAWYERS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The Depart
ment of Justice during the past few days
has been importuned by a large number
OF business men and lawyers to define
the status of the involuntary feature of
the bankruptcy laws passed during the
last session of Congress.
Congress provided that when the invoi-
untary feature of the measure should go
into effect 1t should be accompanied by
a set of rules and orders formulated by
the Supreme Court for its execution. The
Supreme Court not having compiled these
rules and orders, some question was
raised as to whether the law could be
properly enforced at the time provided
for-November l.
The Department of Justice to-day, how
ever, held that the absence of these or
ders will not materially affect the en-
forcement of the law, and that they are
not absolutely essential to the execution

CANAL MUST NOT SLIP
THROUGH OUR HANDS
Washington Authorities Watching
Nicaragua With Regard to
Concessions

WASHINGTON, Nov. st is said at
the State Department that our Govern
ment has not protested against the re-
ported action of the Nicaraguan Govern
ment in granting a concession for the
construction of the Nicaraguan canal to
Eyre and Cragin after the expiration of
the Maritime Companys concession next
October. What the department has done
is not of recent date and consists solely of
the making of representations to the
Nicaraguan authorities to the effect that
the United States deemed only fair and
proper that the status quo should be main
tanned in matters relating to the Nicara-
guam Canal until the board headed by
Admiral Walker has had chance to re-
port and Congress an opportunity to con-
slider that report. This is, automatically.
something very different from a protest.
The reason that this action is taken is
that the making of new concession by
the Nicaraguan Government, even though
it would take effect only upon the expira-
ton of the present concession to the Mari
time Canal Company, might operate to
prevent the latter from obtaining an ex-
tension of its concession, to which 1t
might be justly entitled. In the event
that Congress should legislate upon the
basis of a construction of the work under
the auspices of the Maritime Company
this, of course, would seriously jeopardize
the interests of the United States.
