THE CHARGE FALSE.
Chairman Jones Not Connec-
ted With Any Trust,
He Says if Roosevelt Had Wanted to Inform
Himself, He Had Every Opportunity
of Doing So.
(By the Associated Press.)

Chicago, Ills, Oct. 13.-Chairman Jones
of the Democratic National Committee, re-
ferrng to Governor Roosevelt's associa-
tion Of his name with private owner
ship in trusts said today:
ANY statement made by anybody that
l am in any way connected with or in
terested in any organization that is in
any sense a trust is absolutely untrue.
The charge made that the American Cot
ton Bale company is a trust was the oc-
casion of letter written by me, and pub
lished at the time, in which l stated the
facts of my connection with that company.
The letter explains everything and was
published and extensively circulated If
Mr.. Roosevelt had wanted to inform him
self, he had the opportunity of dol ~ 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 lie well stuck to is good as the
truth"

BRYAN WINDS UP TEDDY.
Republican Bill Making Large Army Perman'
ent Defeated by Democrats

Akron Ohio Oct 13.--A memorable
day in the Bryan campaign in Ohio closed
here tonight with a monster meeting, but
large as it was. it fell considerably be-
hind the meeting at Mansfield which was
the last important stopping place before
reaching this city.
Mansfield was said to have contained
twice as many people as had ever before
been gathered at the place to hear a pO-
litical speech, the surrounding country for
thirty or forty miles around being well
represented.
In his Mansfield speech Mr.. Bryan took
occasion to respond to one of the points
in Governor Roosevelt's reply to one of
Mr.. Bryan's speeches. Mr. Bryan said:
when this campaign first opened the
Republican candidate for Vice President
made a speech at Detroit in which he
said Who is afraid of this army? He
had four soldiers stand up before the aud
fence and he told the audience that the
soldiers bore the same proportion to that
audience that the standing army of 100000
bore to the population of the United
States. His answer to the charge that
we had large army was, Who is afraid?
But my friends that is not what he is
saying now. Within a week that same
candidate for Vice President, that mill
tant member of the Republican ticket has
become frightened himself and few days
ago he stated that we would not have had
that army but for the war in the Phil
ippine Islands. Why are they now trying
to explain it or excuse it, when the fact
is. and l called attention to it at once,
that the President asked for the army
two months before there was a war in the
Philippine Islands.
But now there is another defense. The
candidate for Vice President says that
every intelligent observer knew that there
would be trouble in the Philippines if the
treaty was confirmed. Why, is it possible
that when the President entered upon his
colonial policy he knew there would be
trouble in the Philippine Island? What
becomes of the argument that there would
be no trouble there if it was not for the
people in this country who make speeches
against Imperialism? In his retreat he
has become so scared that he has hidden
behind a bill introduced by a Democratic
Senator Let me read you the text:
"The bill for the temporary increase
which Mr.. Bryan apparently seeks to
persuade his hearers is a permanent in
crease was introduced by Senator Cock
rel. of Missouri. Democratic supporter
of'Mr Bryan and the bulk of the patriotic
Democrats in both houses voted for it.
''Mv friends, that is a different bill.
The President asked for an army of 10O,-
600 and Republican House of Represen-
tatives passed the bill, making the army

(By the Associated Press.l

New York, Oct. 13.-The steamship St,
Paul which arrived here today had as a
passenger Captain R. p. Leary, U. s. NJ,
the former Governor Of Guam. He said
to 2 recorter:

until the last rebel is put down. l mean
by that that there should be no parleying
or compromise while the rebellion exists.

Il mean higher than that. l mean peo-
pie who are way up; such men as -----
I'd better not mention their names. They

Someone told Captain Leary that Sixto

try. To this he replied:

Americans have done. | mean such men

that Republican House did it the treaty

not an arm raised against this nation any

Senator Cockrell? 1t was I. substitute for

Democratic proposition which was pre-
scented to offset the proposition made by

defending the Republican measure making
a permanent increase of the army to 100. =
coo. tries to hide behind Democratic meas
ures which made it only a temporary in
crease. That bill of Senator CockrelTs
was supported by the Democrats and the
Populists and the Silver Republicans of
the Senate, and but for that opposition
we would today have an army of 100 O0O
permanently in this country. But our
people defeated the Republican bill and
Senator Cockrells bill became a law. 1t
was a substitute which the Republicans
had to accept in that Senate. But that
substitute expires next year and Re-
publican paper, the Chicago Tribune, has
announced within a week that Secretary
make the army of 1000 900 a permanent ar
my. Now, let the Republicans defend
their large army. They cannot do it.
No Republican will dare to do it; and
yet if you vote the Republican ticket you
will approve of the army, and if the Re-
publican party wins you will have large
army now of 100000 with the prospect OF
an increase rather and decrease"
In his speech here Mr.. Bryan took III
the trust question at the outset, and al
most every sentence devoted to this sub
ject was loudly applauded. Referring t.
Senator Hanna's reported declaratio
that there are no trusts" Mr. Bryan
said
He should come to Akron and make
that statement"
This was evidently accepted as a ref
erence to the fact that number of bust
ness combinations have their headquarters
in this city, and it apparently met the ap-
prevail of many of those present. Mr..
Bryan again referred to the case of At
torney General Monnett and said the les
son to be drawn from it was that Gin
the Republican party it is better for a
man to violate his oath of office than to
incur the enmity Of the great corpora
ton"
He said that when suits were brought
to dissolve trusts there were generally
threats of leaving the town.
Suppose" he went on. "a man being
prosecuted for horse stealing should
threaten to leave the State if prosecuted
would you stop the prosecution on that
account
He concluded by saying that the law
should be enforced whether it affected
large offenders or small ones.

Louisville, KY, Oct. 13.-Louisville to-
night gave Roosevelt an enthusiastic re-
ception, the program concluding with a
crowded meeting at the auditorium. This
was in contradistinction to the greeting
offered at Elizabethtown, the last stop
before the special reached this city At
that place. no sooner had the Governor
mounted the platform with General Buck
ner and other members of his party than
an attempt was made to break up the
meeting. Small boys carried Bryan ban
ners IN the outskirts of the crowd and
empty coal wagons were driven at full
speed through the square. The steam
whistle on a mill close by was blown loud
Iy and half a hundred men or more shout
ed, "Hurrah for Bryan when the Cover

of the steam whistle rang the words II
call your attention to the attitude of Mr..
Bryan's friends on the subject of law
and order" Then he waved his hand to
the crowd and continued:
ut 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 it again should not dare hear the
truth of history, but should seek to gag
an American citizen even before he had
uttered one word of his opinions in poll

Light Sentence For Cadet Radford
(By the Associated Press.)

Annapolis, Md, Oct 1S.-By the provis-
ions of an order issued by superintendent
Richard Wainwright, of the Naval Acad-
envy Third Glass Cadet George S. Rad
ford receives fifty demerits and is TO be
detained on the Santee for thirty Gays,
as the result of the findings of the court
martial which on Thursday concluded his
trial upon the charge of hazing Cadet
Isaac D. Dortsch, on the evening of Oc-
tober 3rd.
The testimony against Radford was not
damaging to the extent of 'hazing''-
that calls for the severest penalty, dis
missal from the service. 1t is thought
that unless new phases of hazing crop
out during the investigation the remain
ing cadets on trial will get off with equal

THE STANDARD Gil CASE
When Monnett Began Suit it Sought
to Brighten Him.
UNABLE ITO DO THIS, 1T TRIED BRIBERY
This Also Failing, il Called in the Aid Of The
Republican Party and Thus Succeed
ed in Hu'ling Him From
Power.
(By the Associated Press.)

New Lexington, Ohio, Oct. 13.-Mr
Bryan referred in both his Circlcville
and Lancaster speeches to the case of
Attorney General Monnett, of this State
At Lancaster he made that official the
principal theme of his discourse, saying:
Il want to call the attention of Repub-
licans to something which has taken
place in their own State, and l want to
ask the Republicans whether they can
afford to endorse what has been done by
the Republican party in this State. / see
before me parents who are raising sons,
and those parents are hoping for great
things for their sons. l want to tell you
what has occurred in connection with
young men in Ohio.
There was a young Republican of abil-
ity and of character nominated for At
torney General of the State of Ohio. When
he entered upon the duties of his office
he took an oath to perform these duties
to the best of his ability, and in the
course of his duty he was called upon to
commence suit under the laws of this
State against a great private monopoly,
the Standard Oil Company, and as soon
as he commenced suit the company began
its persecution and it's opposition.
1T first tried to brighten him out of
doing his duty then it tried to bribe him
out of doing his duty, and when it could
neither brighten nor bride, it went to the
Republican party and defeated him for
doing his duty.
Il want to ask you parents whether
you want to hold before your sons as an
ideal the Republican party as it now
stands, where a young man like Monnett
must be driven out of the party because
he dares to defend the laborer, the
farmer and the business man from the
extortion Of private monopoly
Republican fathers, can you afford to
tell your sons that it is better for a man
to betray a trust than to do his duty?
Can you tell your sons that it is better
for Il man to violate his oath OF office
than to risk the hostility Of q great corpo-
ration?
'If Monnett can leave the Republican
party, cannot the farmer and laboring
man and business men whose interest
he tried to protect, afford to leave the
Republican party, or will you say that
you are SO welded to the Republican
party that you would rather stay with the
I Republicans and defend the monopolies of
this country than to leave the Republican
party even for a brief time in order to
obtain relief from them"
Continuing, Mr.. Bryan said that this OPP
position to the enforcement of laws was
not confined to the State of Ohio but was
found in the Republican administration
of the affairs of the nation. He cou-
trastcd the conduct of the affairs of the
nation with the conduct of the legal
business of his own State of Nebraska,
where he said the Democratic Attorney
General was obeying the law and prose
cutting the trusts.

better light on the situation in Southern
China, where an anti-dynastic uprising is
now in progress. The reformist movement
there is divided in two distinct parties,
one led by Kang- Yu-Wei and the other
