CONFERENCE OF
 THE REPUBLICANS Roosevelt Says Important BuSi- ness Was Transacted HIS SPEECHES DISCUSSED Says the Conference Means That They Are Going to Garry Every Re-
 publican in the State of
 New York
HIS SPEECHES DISCUSSED

New York, July 3O.-After Governor Roosevelt came from a conference with Senator Hanna and others at Republican headquarters today, he said:
 'I have seen Senator Hanna, Senator Scott. MT Manley and MT. Gibbs, and have had a pleasant talk with them l don't expect to be anything but private citizen during the month of August. Later than that have not made any definite ar engagements"
 Asked later if the talk at the conference included the speeches that he made in the West, notably the one at St. Paul, he re- piled: We did talk that over as well as the other speeches I made. The speech at St. Paul was brought up, but was not crit icised." He said that he understood that certain parts of his St. Paul speech would be made into a campaign document.
 After Governor Roosevelt left the build ing Senator Platt arrived and went into Senator Hanna's room. The meeting be- tween Chairman Hanna and Senator Platt was the first they have had since the Phil adelphia convention.
 Speaking of their conference today, Sena- ator Platt said the subjects discussed were Republican matters only. As to a question as 70 the significance of the conference he Sad:
 Tt means we are going to carry every Republican in this State.'
 Asked if the matter was not very im- pcrtant public interest, he replied:
 "Yes, it was important, and of public interest, but, unfortunately, can say nothing about the matter"
 When Senator Hanna went to lunch with Cornelius N. Bliss he was asked if he and Senator Platt had not discussed the mat ter of the advisory board of the National Committee.
 .'Oh, we discussed that and various other matters. We always do discuss important matters when we get together"
 Asked as to the personnel of the advisory board Senator Hanna said: T have an idea who the persons will be but am not going to tell you yet. am going to wait until the proper time comes and then I will let you know"
 Senator Hanna denied that the talk with Governor Roosevelt about the latter's St. Paul speech was anything like the report printed today.
 Senator Hanna was asked about the re- port of Senator Platt's retiring and MT. Odel succeeding, and said:
 Senator Platt has broken rib, but he is here to stay. He is in politics and in with both feet.
 Among the other callers on Senator Hanna were Thomas Dolan of Philadelphia and John A. Wise.

SHOOTING AT BESSEMER
Charles Lee Shot and Dangerously
 Wounded by Bruce Curb

Bessemer, July 0.-(Special.-This morn- ing about 10:30 o'clock Charles Lee was shot and dangerously wounded by Bruce Curb. Both are young white men. The trouble occurred in Sam Dunn's saloon. Both men had been drinking heavily. Lee had until recently been employed in the Louisville and Nashville Mineral yard, but had lately been discharged, on account, it is said, of stories that had been told by Curb. They met in the saloon this morn- ing and a quarrel ensued in. which Lee was shot twice, once in the abdomen and through the arm. Lee was unarmed. Af- ter the shooting Curb ran in the direction of Jonesboro, and by repeatedly shooting at his pursuers succeeded for time in keeping them at bay. He was finally caught, however, when about mile out of town by Officers Mimms and Morrison. As he was greatly exhausted he was put on horse and was kains bsenght back

CURE GUARANTEED

Patients will be received and treated promptly, and not one cent VIII be required for treatment until the patients say that all desire and craving for theeir former habit is destroyed. The patients should remain though very few do) under the observation and direction of the doctor for a week or more. The treatment can be given in secrecy, and is so mild that the most delicate have taken it with little or no suffering. In fact, the patient hardly realizes that he is under treatment until he finds himself cured and full of joy at his liberation from the most exacting and cruel masters that ever dominated a slave.
 Dr. Westmoreland has never failed to relieve all of the great number that have taken his remedy for these enslaving hab- its or diseases Why would any one con- tinue in bondage when he is guaranteed a cure?

 No one that Is addicted to any of these dreadful diseases or habits should fail to avail himself of this great opportunity of being cured at once of these, the greatest affictions that mortal ever had. For fur ther information call on or address

 Tried to Control socialists
 The anarchists tried to control the so- cialists and failing, dropped away rom that movement, denounced the soclahsts because of their peacefulness and claimed that they were traitors, although the so- cialists had never tried anything but peace ful methods and were purely political ana lawabiding.
 The anarchists embraced every strike in Paterson for a long time as means to foment trouble. During the great silk strike three years ago, when that industry was compelled to locate factories in differ ent parts of the country, the anarchists did more than any one else to bring about the removal of the manufacturers. They used dynamite and although their efforts to de- stroy buildings were mostly frustrated they created such a feeling of uneasiness that the manufacturers moved.
 When the Empress of Austria was mur- dercd, the local. anarchists had big cele- bration but not openly.
 When the news came they slipped out of the city and assembled at a prear- ranged point, where they held their jolli- fication and when it was over, returned to Patterson. As they had gone singly and at intervals they avoided general notice.
