TAMMANY,s BID FOR LEADERSHIP

The resolutions which so nearly threw
the members of the House Democratic
caucus into commissions a week ago turn
out to be the platform upon which the
leaders of Tammany propose to go before
the country with Mr.. Edward NJ. Shepard
their defeated candidate for mayor, as
leader 1t was not known that the resolu-
tions were written by Mr.. Shepard and
cordially indorsed by the Tammany lead
ers, including Richard Croker. Even Mr.
Mcclellan, who presented them, did not
seem TO think it necessary TO assert that
Tammany spoke in the resolutions which
terrified the caucus. A week has disclosed
the fact that Tammany Hall proposes to
take a hand in directing the Democratic
party In the country, and that Mr.. Shepard
is its leader and lawgiver. The resolu-
tions are official notice TO the Democratic
party that Tcmmany Hall. which the
Sentinel so severely denounced the morn
ing after Mr.. Shepard's defeat In New
York city. has arisen from its defeat to
take the position of leadership. Edward
NJ. Shepard will be Tammany's leader in
New York, and Tammany's war upon
David b. Hill will be kept up.
Mr.. Shepard, the author Of the resolu-
tions. seems to realize that the trouble
with the Democratic party in recent years
has been that 1t has had too many conflict
ing principles. Mr. Bryan and ex-senator
Turpie insisted that the Chicago platform
OF 1896 was the genuine article. while ex-
President Cleveland and the late Senator
Palmer. OF Illinois. declared that that plat
form was a bundle of heresies. Mr.
Shepard seems 10 be aiming at getting rid
of the two kinds OF Democratic principles
advocated by Mr.. Bryan and ex-President
Cleveland and getting together upon issues
concerning which Democrats can have no
fundamental dispute. This may seem an
easy thing TO do, but the CONSERVATION
into which the reading OF the resolutions
embracing the Shepard remedy for party
cohesion threw the caucus a week ago can
not be regarded as encouraging for the
Tammany leaders. There is fresh reason
TO believe that the number of Democrats
who adhere TO tho Kansas City platform is
large and potential Besides. a large part

SECRET CONTRIBUTORS.
How School Children VIII Swell the
Mckinley Memorial Fund.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 6.-L. II. Jones,
Superintendent of the Cleveland public
schools, has devised plan for receiving
contributions from pupils to the Mckinley
national memorial fund that has received
the hearty approval of the officials of the
national association. 1t is pointed out that
in the schools, attended alike by the chill
dren of rich and poor, public offerings
often cause suffering TO sensitive pupils.
Mr. Joness plan is for a secret contribu-
ton. Each pupil will be supplied with an
envelope on which will be written the name
and home address. Whether a contribution
is made or not this envelope will be sealed
and handed to the teacher. who will send
il to the designated treasurer. In this way
no one knows the amount of the contribu-
ton, or whether one has given at all. Con-
trbutions from a penny up are received.
Every contributor is given a souvenir GER
tificate, no matter how small his offering.
This souvenir certificate further serves a
contributors pride by simply stating that
he is a contributor, without giving the
amount In this way the children who have
given a penny and the millionaire who
contributed his thousands are on equal
footings. The Mckinley National Memorial
Association thinks so well OF the idea that
it will probably indorse its use for the en-
tire country.

LONDON WEEKLY SCOLDS
ACRID COMMENT ON PRESIDENT
ROOSEVELT'S MESSAGE.
Trust Conditions as Described by The
Speaker-Saturday Review on
the Canal Treaty.

LONDON, Dec. 6-The comment of the
weeklies on President Roosevelt's message
to Congress is not generally so friendly as
that of the dailies. The Speaker devotes
the entire space to acrid comment on the
trust references. The paper declares the
Presidents treatment of a grave economic
situation is trivial in form and unsatisfac-
tory in substance, adding: Did we not en-
terrain genuine belief in the goodness of
the Presidents intentions we should regard
his diagnosis of the industrial situation as
insincere."
The Speakers word picture of the wide
spread ruin, corruption, economic tyranny
and domestic affiiction brewing in America
as the result of trust domination would be
revelation to the most ardent antitrust
advocate in the United States The article
concludes as follows: For such a student
of industrial politics as Mr.. Roosevelt pro-
fesses to be, to ignore these conditions is
act Of intellectual daring that does him lit
tie credit. The upshot of the message is to
minimize and misrepresent the dangers of
trusts and to postpone any serious attempt
to grapple with them
The Saturday Review, on the other hand,
remarks: "All industrial undertakings in
the United states are more scientifically or
gained than in any other country. as we
have learned to cost The trust is the
last word of this system Of scientific or
ganiZation, and the President is right when
he declines to hamper the captains of in
dustry'
Turing to the canal treaty, however. the
Saturday Review declares Great Britain
has sacrificed everything to gain the prob
lematical friendship of the United States
which will last just as long as it takes
America to build fleet, and not a day be-
yOnd."
The Outlook is mildly commendatory of
the message. 1t says: The Anarchist pro-
gramme is splendid in theory, but in prac-
tce it is impossible" AS regards reciprocity
the Outlook remarks: Frankly selfish,
America will accept freely whatever bene-
fits herself, but will be careful that no in

Of the Democracy in the West and South is
hostile TO Tammany and will not accept
it's leadership If Mr.. Shepard and the
Tammany leaders were in earnest to bring
the party together on the Shepard platform
they would have tried to secure the serv-
ices of a Democrat from the South or West
to present it. The reorganization Of the
Democratic party by a Tammany leader
with a Tammany platform is doubly re-
pugnant now that Democratic papers in the
West and South have rejoiced in the de-
feat of Tammany and FIR. Shepard.
AS for the Tammany resolutions. there IS
Cuba and the Philippines that Republicans
cannot subscribe to. Even the opposition
TO ship subsidies is a position assumed by
Republicans of the West generally. Mr.
Shepard is an original free-trader, yet in
what he says in his resolutions about the
tariff he falls short of Mr. Cleveland's
platform of "a tariff for revenue only by
demanding simply a reduction OF duties
without sssailing the principle of protec-
ton. Mr.. Bryan may accept the Tam
many platform, since Tammany gave him
loyal support in 1900, but because Mr..
Bryan has condoned the crimes of Tam
many is no sign that the mass of the Dem
ocratic party will accept Mr.. Shepard and
Tammany as leaders and party lawmak-

LONDON, Dec. 6.-An article on Presi-
dent Roosevelt will occupy considerable
space in to-morrow's issue of the Specta-
tor. His message to Congress is highly
commended Here, at any rate" the Spec
tator will say, sis man who knows what
he means and who means that the world
shall know it also" Briefly the Spectator
will approve of President Roosevelt's at
titude both in regard to trusts and to
foreign policy, but the paper will admit
that European powers will never accept
Monroeism in theory, and only in prac-
tice as long as the American navy is
strong enough to support 1t. The Specta-
tor is especially glad that President RoOse-
welt is inclined TO face the possibility of
the need to amend the Constitution, which
American statesmen always regard as too
sacred TO be touched.
The Spectator will also contain a highly
eulogistic article on President Roosevelt's
essay, THE Citizen and the Public Man."
and will say that in this essay one sees
a man with the infiexible moral vgor of
Cromwell. I'VE are convinced that Pres
ident Roosevelt" the paper says, lis GO
ing TO play a great part and good part
if he continues his work in the spirit
which inspires this remarkable sermon. He
will prove the most swAetening influence in
the whole lump of American civil life that
has been known for many years"

DR.. Nelson declared emphatically that
there is no decent, capable negro in the
South to-day who need be without work
for twelve hours. Continuing. he said:

The train was going scarcely five miles an
hour, but the heavy train behind piled the
engine on the rocks, and before the engi-
neer and fireman could jump the engine
rolled over and over three hundred feet
down the sheer bluff toward the river. En-
gineer Randall and Fireman Potruff were
crushed to death beneath the engine. Three

FLOOD OF RESOLUTIONS
EIGHTY-EIGHT PRESENTED TO THE
FEDERATION OF LABOR.
One Denounces Minister wu Tingfang
and Another Thanked Pres
ident Roosevelt.

SCRANTON, Pa, Dec. 6.-The convention
of the American Federation of Labor dis
posed of considerable routine business to-
day. Two sessions were held. The aft
ernoon meeting was adjourned an hour
earlier in order that the committees which
were announced by President Gompers
could organize and take UP the work that
has been laid out for them. There was
full attendance of delegates. and business
was transacted without a hitch or much
discussion, except in the matter Of con-
tested seat OF a st. Louis delegate. This,
however, did not amount 10 much, al
though the discussion was quite lengthy.
The overshadowing feature or the Gay
was an address of Edward +. McSchween-
ey, deputy commissioner Of immigration
at the port of New York, on the subject
of immigration. He spoke for more than
an hour, and was generously applauded for
the great amount of information that he
gave the delegates.
During the course of the two sessions
lightweight resolutions were presented
and referred to committees. They cover
nearly every variety of subjects that at
feet workmen. One Of them contained a
denunciation of WI Tingfang, the Chinese
minister, for an alleged derogatory re-
mark against the American people, and
another conveyed the sincere and hearty
thanks of the Federation of Labor TO Pres
ident Roosevelt for the position he took
in his message TO Congress on the Ques-
ton Of Chinese exclusion.
The report of the committee on creden-
tails promised TO develop into a lively de-
bate, but the call for the previous question
suddenly cut off further discussion. IN
objection was entered against tnaJ part OF
the report which referred TO the st. Louis
stationary engineers and brewery work
mems controversy. The committee recon-
mended that Delegate William NJ. Brandt.
of the Trades and Labor Union, be seated
against the protest Of the stationary en-
gineers and that the Trade and Labor
Union be instructed TO have the brewery
engineers join the international Union OF
Steam Engineers. The convention seated
Bradt without a word, but the matter OF
instructing the labor union 10 take In the
brewery engineers caused an extended dis
cussion. II was finally referred 10 the ex
ecutive council for disposal, and thus the
important question Of trade autonomy
was not settled was expected.
After President Gompers had announced
the committees the convention adjourned
until o'clock tomorrow morning.
