their road on the route which
passes through Madill. Governor
Johnston was away from home at

Gated with him by telephone. Mr..
Sacra did not state what answer
he received from the governor, but
seemed sanguine and stated that
unless the road had already filed a

that Governor Johnston would re-
fuse to sign the bill for the con-
struction of the road.

MIR. BRYAN WILL
 DISCUSS TRUSTS During lis Notification Speech
 at Topeka. ADDRESS sIS ABOUT READY It is Believed He will Point Out Deh- nite Line of Action in Dealing
 With the Trust Question.
ADDRESS sIS ABOUT READY

Lincoln, Aug. 1S-Mr. Bryan has been fre- quently interrupted upon his Topeka notfi- cation speech and his letter of acceptance, but he is nevertheless well along in both. His Labor Day and G. A. R. national re- union speeches have been begun. It Is the opinion of the local Democrats that MT. Bryan will take up the trust question at Topeka and handle it in the same vigorous way as he did the question of imperialism. It is believed that he will point out defin- ite line of action in dealing with trusts.
 Yesterday MT. Bryan was pallbearer at the funeral of his old friend, Major Bo- hanan. The deceased was leading Demo- crat of Lincoln, and a pioneer of the west. Their acquaintanceship began soon after MT. Bryan, as a young lawyer, came to this city, and it soon ripened into warm friendship which has grown strong through the intervening years
 This forenoon MT. Bryan spent at his farm at the edge of the city, both for the purpose of looking after his crops and for doing more work upon his speeches. At his home in the city he is so frequently interrupted that he is unable to accomplish as much as he desires.
 Mr. Bryan will devote the greater part of next week to working In Nepraska ana Kansas. He will make the first of series of addresses at Wahoo, Tuesday afternoon, and will follow this effort with four speeches on Wednesday, all to be delivered in this State.
 Thursday forenoon will be spent in Kan gas City, The afternoon of that day will be giv. Il over to the Populist notification cere- mol ies at To. cka, w re he Will respond to a speech by T. M Patterson, notifying him of his nomination for the Presidency by the Populist party.
 Returning from Topeka Friday MT. Bryan will speak at Manhattan, Kan., in the fore noon and at Beatrice, Neb., in the after noon.
 Saturday he will go to South Omaha to attend a Jackson Club picnic, and will speak there in the afternoon or evening. It is not his intention to speak in Kansas City during the stay there next Wednes- day.
 J. H. Dahman, Democratic national com mitteeman of this State, gives out an inter- view today in which he state Bryan will carry the State by an increased majority, and that the entire State fusion ticket will be elected.
 Mrs Helen Gouger took the stump in this State today for Bryan and will make an extensive speaking tour of the west.

THE EMPEROR ID COUNT WALDERSEE Congratulated Him on the Pow- CTS Consenting for Him
 to Lead.

Cassell, Prussia, August 1S.-In the throne room of the palace here today, in the presence of Field Marshal Count von Waldersee and his staff, Emperor William presented the Count with a field marshaps s baton and made an appropriate speech, to which Won Waldersee replied. His Majes- ty said:
 My Dear Von Waldersee: I congratu- late you that I am today again able to greet you as the head of the united troops of the civilized world. It is of great sig nificance that your appointment from the outset secured the support and approval of the Emperor of All the Russias-the mighty ruler who makes his power felt throughout the continent of Asia. This again shows how closely united the old traditions in arms of the two empires. hail with joy the fact that at His Majesty's sugges- tion the whole of the civilized world, with out distinction and spontaneously, entrust- ed to your excellency the command of its troops. As Prussian officers we can be gratefully filled with pride at the task as- signed to you, inasmuch it expressed unanimous appreciation of the powers"

WILL HEAR THE PUBLISHERS
nate Unions to Adopt Conciliatory Measures at All Times When
 Changing Their Scales

Milwaukee, Wis, August 1S.-The Inter- national Typographical Union today re- considered the proposition of Delegate Bandlow of Cleveland, bearing on politics, and which was adopted yesterday. The measure as reconsidered was killed. the vote being two-thirds against it's adoption. The proposition called for unit action of the International Unoin upon the political field and the severing of all members of their "affiliation with all political parties of the exploiting class"
 A resolution of interest to publishers throughout the country was introduced by Delegate Hays of Minneapolis, as follows:
 Resolved, That it is the sense of the International Typographical Union that subordinate unions should adopt concila- tory measures at all times when changing their scale of prices, and that before any change in scale of prices is adopted it should be submitted to all publishers who are interested Also that the Internation- al Typographical Union, when requested, shall allow representative of the Ameri-

was any disposition to breach them. More over, as the allied troops have preached the great outer walls fifty feet high and far more formidable than the inner walls, they would have comparatively little diff ficulty in moving where the commanders desired inside the city.
 Aside from the question of the withdraw al of troops from Pekin, both of these questions are for the present in abeyance, pending definite news from General Chaf- fee and Minister Conger. Certainly there can be no immediate withdrawal from Pe- kin, and the government is yet to learn what plans will be devised for escorting le gationers and the several thousand native Christians to the coast.

NEGROES A FAILURE
Have Not Been Successful as Cotton
 Mill Hands

Charleston, s. C., August 1s.-The experi- ment of operating cotton mills with negro labor, which was begun in the Vester mill here a year ago, has not proven the suc- cess that the managers had expected.
 The lack of constancy is the great fault found here with the colored operatives. When the negroes were first employed, white men were engaged to train them to manipulate the delicate machinery. After learning how to handle the machinery, and after they had been working, perhaps, for a few weeks, the negroes would quietly walk away at night and not return for work in the morning. By having the negro ministers in the city pick for them the most reliable negroes, the managers were led to believe that steady operatives could be had, although this has not proven to be the case,
