BRYAN IN KANSAS CITY.
He Addresses Labor Meeting on the
 Subject of Trusts.


 Kansas City, Mo, Sept 3.-Labor day was marked by the largest and most imposing parade of labor unions ever seen here. William Jennings Bryan took part in the procession and exercises. Eight thousand men marched through the streets, grouped in their unions and each union wear ing a distinguishing uniform. MT Bryan occupied carriage at the head of the line and was cheered as he was recognized.
 There was speaking and athletic games at Electric park in the after noon, and last night there were more addresses. The orator of the after noon was w. J. Bryan, who was pre- ceded by Mayor Reed. The pavilion at the park was crowded to suffoca- tion. MT Bryan took for his text the Bible verse: "MuzZle not the OK that treadeth out the corn" He said in part:
 "Each decade of our history shows greater production of wealth, and the men who produce it have lots to show for it. Is this a good conditionE A right condition? The solution of the problems that confronts us is leg islation, not legislation for or against classes. but for equal justice before law. The strike is to-day the only weapon the laborer has, but it is weak and inefficient If the laboring men were half as active on election day as they are in enforcement of thelr strikes they would wield a force that would right the evils which beset them.
 1.-The greatest danger of to-day is private monopoly. Not that any one monopoly is worse than others, but the principle is bad which tolerates any private monopoly.
 ssThe offer of the trusts to divide with the laboring man is a pitfall. Can you trust the corporations to di- vide honestly? No. When you per init private monopoly to dictate terms of division, then you place yourselves wholly at their mercy. You are wit messing a battle between labor and the great steel trust. This trust was willing to unionize some of its mills, but would have others open to non union labor. Why? Because the trust wants some mills that it can depend on in the event of strike. 1t is an unequal struggle, for the trust can shut down it's mills for a year, but ldDOflnS HIGH cdInOI i've d yedr- .Witu- out work 1t is your duty to crush monopoly with the best resources at your command-the ballot. IL
 q am opposed to government by injunction. It is not directed especi- ally against the laboring man, but that it does away with trial by jury"
 MT Bryan also condemned the ac- ton of the South Carolina mill men who forbade their men to celebrate Labor day or to join unions.

 London, Sept 3.-Dr Krause, former governor of Johannesburg and promi- nent official of the former Transvaal government, was arrested in London last night on charge of high treason. He will be arraigned to-day in Bow street police court.
 For the last four months Dr Krause has been living in Great Britain. It is alleged that. after signifying his allegiance to the British crown. he se- cretly forwarded information to the Boers.
 The warrant was issued several weeks ago, but the police were not able to find him until yesterday, when they ascertained that he was coming from Inverness. with his sister Mrs Dixon, who is said to be the wife of British officer
 It was Dr Krause who handed to Lord Roberts the keys to Johannesbune on the occasion of the surrender.

HOTEL KEEPERS FELT IT.
Shore Resorts Were Not patronized
 Well This Year.

Well This Year.
 The summer season now closing was the worst in financial sense that has been experienced. in years by keepers of shore and country resorts. What ever was the cause. it was felt equal Iy by the large hotel keeper as well as the little one, if not more so. Cot tages that usually rented for $1,2OO for the season in Asbury park and places of that social standard went for $4OO and in some instances less, this sum mer. On the Connecticut shore, about New Haven particularly. the financial depression was felt to a consider able extent. Cottages that rented for $35 a week went for $20 and so on in proportion.
 This undoubtedly explains to great degree the increase in the number d camps along the east and west shore of New Haven. of private parties and preferred to lease a patch of sand for the season, at very small expense, to the social rigour of a fashionable hotel By such strategy one was enabled to hide ones impecunfous difficulties and be satisfied with the mosquitos for an audience of ones bathing suit. \. A wholesale grocer in New Haven said last evening that his business was the greatest sufferer through this eyi- dent lack of funds among the people in general. He remarked that nor only did the mechanic who formerly was able to give his family a weeks rest at the shore, showed his inability to do so this summer by curtailing the visit to few days or an occasional holiday, but also upon the apparent man of means, who has his household affairs conducted by his own family. A slack pocketbook seemed to be the lot of all.
 This man could not explain the cause of this. He surmised it may be traced to either the general disturb ance in industry, or the unusually wet season. Even the peanut vendors who clamor about the cars on the runs be tween Savin Rock and Woodmont felt the effects of the slack purse.

Fire at the A1mshouse.

There was bad fire at the Almshouse
on Thursday evening. It was discovered
about nine o'clock by William Stokley,
engineer at the asylum. He first thought
the light he saw was from lantern, but a
few seconds proved that there was fire in
the building Two of the attendants at
the asylum were hastily summoned and
the hose carriage at the almshouse was
put in service. The fire was in the large
barn and had gained such Roadway that
it was useless to try and check the flames
there, but the hose was used to great adj
vantage on the other buildings
The barn was soon in ruins, together
with it's contents, which unfortunately in
Guided eight horses and fifteen calves.
The origin of the fire is a mystery The
barn was insured for $1,700, but there
was no insurance on the stock, and the
loss will probably reach "a, 900. The fire
caused considerable excitement among the
inmates of the asylum and it required
much effort on the part of Superintendent
Deacon to quiet the unfortunate creatures
in his charge.
The fire made great light and drew
people from all quarters. William 81.

A son of Michael Heavers, who occupies
the Matlack farm, was badly hurt on
Wednesday. He was driving out of the
barn yard on heavy wagon and fell off
The wagon ran over him and bruised one
of his shoulders and hips very badly
On Tuesday afternoon, while Anna M.
Haines, who occupies the farm at Haines
Corner. was in Marlton, some one entered
her house and ransacked things in general
All the closets, bureau drawers, desks,
ETC., were emptied of their contents which
were thrown carelessly about the room
So far, however, Miss Haines has only
missed 81 in 10 cent pieces. One night
last week some one entered the barn on
this farm and led out horse which was
found in the road the next morning. The
halter with which the horse had been
tied, was found in the yard. The barn
had been carefully closed the night before.

Accused of Fraud.

Medical circles in Maryland and Penn
announcement that a Philadelphia ply
stefan had attempted to cheat the State
Medical Board of Maryland out of Ii
cense in favor of a New Jersey doctor
The Philadelphia man is DR.. j. Merrill
Galloway, and it is claimed he went be
fore the Maryland board and represented
himself to be Dr. J. Preston Duncan, Of
Mount Holly.
DIR. Warfleld, president of the Mary
land State Board of Medical Examiners,
made the charge to the effect that among
the 100 applicants before the Maryland
Board in May was man who purported
to be DR.. Duncan. On the second day OF
the examinations travelling man from
Philadelphia told DR. Warfeld he recog.
nized among the candidates an expert
Philadelphia physician. He pointed out
the man and Dr. Warfield recognized the
person who was passing under the name
of Duncan The suspect was questioned
and he insisted his name was Duncan.
The Dean of Baltimore University Medi.
cal School, from which Dr. Duncan grad
uated, was invited to the examination
room and on looking at the man said the
latter had never been at his college. The
fellow still stuck to his original story,
however.
=. lnxrr If am
B. Ogburn, of Mount Holly. When this
matter was brought to his attention on
Friday, he laughed at it as huge joke
saving he knew nothing about it and
asked that the whole story be denied. He
disclaimed being party to the affair,
saying that he never employed DR.. Gal
loway to impersonate him. He admitted
having graduated from the Baltimore
University Medical School and showed
his diploma, but he failed to show any
license which permits him to practice in
this state He didn't remember such a
person as DR.. Galloway, although he ad-
mitted having met him once or twice, but
he had forgotten him. In reply to ques-
ton DR.. Duncan said he had never prac
ticed illegally in this state; that he was in
possession of license issued to him by
the New Jersey State Board of Medical
Examiners, and that he was registered in
the county clerks Office of Burlington
county. County Clerk W. Roland War
rick does not know of such registration.

family was doubtless decided upon at the
conference with Baxter in the jail, for on
the arrival of the party in Camden they
proceeded to the office of lawyer Scovel
where the Rev. W. H. Vanhorn was pre-
sent, and, after arranging the pre-
| liminaries Harrie Allen Baxter and Miss
Mabel Wills were married. After the
ceremony the party, accompanied by
lawyer Boyle, proceeded to the Federal
street ferry, and were joined later by law
yer Scovel. After telephoning to several
points the entire party embarked on the
7.45 boat from Camden for Philadelphias
and the bride, groom, mother-in-law and
brother-in law went to Atlantic City.
This unfortunate affair has stirred the
town as it has never been stirred before.
AS fact it is nobody's business, save
those Immediately interested, but by an
unwritten law it is one of those cases
which create indignation and infame the
public mind to such an extent that it
seems as if it is necessary for somebody to
show resentment. The character of Bax-
ter has undoubtedly been unfolded in its
true sense While he deserves all the
condemnation that has been heaped upon
him, it is but fair that the women in the
case should understand they are not en-
tirely blameless. Admitting that the in
terviews published are correct. they do
not aid the other side very materially.
For over a quarter of century Judge
Wills and his wife have lived among us,
with no inkling that their life was other
than one of happiness. Two children
were born to them and if outward APP
pearances are any indication, they have
been INDUCED in all their desires. Sud
denly there appears on the scene fellow
who is announced as the future husband
of the daughter Had Judge Wills quiet
ly rested without making the inquiry de-
manded of him as the natural protector of
his daughters reputation, he would have
been condemned as he would have de-
served. But the very act of protection is
what has brought all this trouble about.
It is all useless for these women to
claim that jealousy is at the back Of all of
Judge Wills actions He has a right to be |
credited with more manly motive, yet
there are those who feel he has perfect
grounds for jealousy. When an inter
loper enters family and completely |
turns every member against the husband
and father, arousing the first dissension
that has appeared in s5 years, there is
just cause for indignation and proper
jealousy.
