Mr.. Roosevelt had wanted to inform
himself, he had the opportunity of do
ing so. If he is a sincere man, he will
not, after reading that letter make the
statement that the American Cotton
Bale Company is a trust. However,
there is an old adage that a lie we'll

EIizabethtown-WeII Received at
Louisville.

LOUISVILLE, KY, October l3.-Louis-
vile tonight gave Governor Roosevelt an
enthusiastic reception, the programme
concluding with a crowded meeting at the
distinction to the greeting offered at Eliz-
abethtown, the last stop before the special
reached this city. At that place the Gov
ernor suffered the first indignity thrust
upon him in the State. Bowling Green had
cheered the governor until his ears rang
with plaudits, n Mumfordville gathered
at the train where the speakers stand was
erected. receiving him with expressions Of
good will. But at Elizabethtown it was
different, although the Republicans had
done all in their power to make the can
didate's stop a pleasant one. No sooner
had the governor mounted the platform
with General Buckner and other members
of his party than an attempt was made TO
break up the meeting. Small boys carried
Bryan banners in the outskirts of the
crowd and empty coal wagons were driven
at fun speed through the square. The
steam whistle on a mill close by was
blown loudly and half a hundred men or
more shouted "Hurrah for Bryan when
the governor began speaking.
Despite the fact that he had a soreness
in his throat which had compelled him to
shorten all his earlier speeches during the
day, the governor proceeded to make him
self heard in spite Of the noise in the
crowd. Above the shrek Of the steam
| whistle rang the words:
II call your attention to the attitude OF
Mr. Pryauts frfaudc m fha cubAegf nf Ia W

and continued:
1T is natural that the men who have
| tried to deprive Kentucky Of a free ballot
should be opposed to free speech. 1t is
not extraordinary that the men who have
stolen the governorship and who seek to
steal 1t again should not dare hear the
truth of history. but should seek to gag
| an American citizen before he had uttered
one word Of his opinions in a political
controversy"
This brought cheers and more Interrupt
tions and the governor was urged not 20
further endsnger his throat but 10 permit
a substitute to finish the programme. He
rejected the suggestion, however. n
| spoke the fun fifteen minutes allotted to
him, and was escorted 70 his train by a

THREE POWERS AGREE ON
IMPORTANT PROPOSAL
RUSSIAN SUGGESTION THAT THE
HAGUE TRIBUNAL DECIDE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-The Rus

ese indemnities, was submitted TO
Secretary Hay by Mr.. Wollant, the Rus
sian charge d'ffaires in Washington. In
a note on October Sc. 1t has received
French and the Russian governments,
the adherence of the American, the
thus giving the suggestion the approval
of three of the foremost powers, and
strong assurance of its general adop-
ton.
NJ. de Wolant's note has not been
made public. 1t can be stated, however,
that it was the result of an extended
exchanges between the French and
Russian governments relative to the
six proposals in the French note.
1t expressed approval of the various
proposals, and then added the new
suggestion relative to giving The
Hague tribunal jurisdiction of lndem-
nifty in case there should be divergence
of views. Not being a formal propo-
sition, but merely an incident to the
approval of the french note, 1t has not
called for a formal reply Of acceptance,
but the Russian authorizes have been
furnished with a copy of the American
reply to the French note, wherein our
approval is given to the Russian sug-
g~estion, so that it is none the less eff
fective in giving American adherence
to the plan. 1t is understood also that
Austria and Italy, and probably Japan,
look with favor upon The Hague sug-
gestion.
The movement promises to give the
first practical realization to the cars
movement in bringing about the inter
national congress of The Hague. The
court of arbitration has received the
approval of the various governments
represented at The Hague and it's
forrSal organization is in progress.
The Importance the United States at
taches to it is indicated by the choice
of ex-President Harrison and ex-Sena-
tor George Gray, of Delaware, as the
American members of the tribunal.

INDEMNITY BE PAID.

President VIII suEgcst That Cons
gress Reimburse Families Of Ital-
ians Killed by Mob.
WASHINGTON, October 1.-The
President will recommend to Congress
the payment of an indemnity to the
families of the four Italians who were
the victims of a mob at Tallaluh.
Louisiana, about two years ago. A re-
port from a special agent CT the De-
partment of Justice, clearly estabiish-
ed the fact that the men were killed
by the mob and that mons of the per-
p~e,rators OF the crime was ever pun
ished by the State authorities. not
withstanding the representations of the
national government. The Governor OF
Louisiana caused an investigation to
be made and there were some proceed
Ings before a grand jury. but the re-
suit was that the national government
found itself bound TO make some sort
of reparation In answer to the Italian
governments representations and this
will take the form of an indemnity for
each OF the persons killed who wera
Italian citizens at the time OF their
death.

army, and If the Republican party wins
you will have a large army-now Of
100000, with the prospect of an in
crease rather than a decrease"
Speaking In a General
way on the army question, Mr.. Bryan
said:
If a Republican tries TO defend the ar

eign policy. But there is a domestic rea-
son and that domestic reason has its in
fuence with the heads of the great syndi-
Gates of this country. They tell you II

want a bigger army for domestic purposes,
TO preserve order and 10 enforce the law,
but the object of it is TO build a fort near
each large city and have an army present
to suppress by force the discomfort that
ought to be cured by legislation
He also discussed expansion.
The Republicans he said, try to hide
behind the term expansion. They do not
defend Imperialism. Jefferson brought in
land out of which ten great States nave
been made, but no Republican expects 10
