reports that the Colombian rebels are

the Colombians because American

HENDERSON MAKES DENIAL.
Has Never Desired the Defeat of
Judge BirdsaII.

Judge BirdsaII.
Chicago, Nov al think it would
be the worst political calamity that
could befall Iowa should my successor,
Judge Birdsall, in the Third Iowa dis
trict, be defeated in next Tuesdays
election" This statement was made
by d. B. Henderson, Speaker of the
House of Representatives. who ar
rived in Chicago to-day from the East
and learned that statements had been
published claiming that he was opposed
to the election of Judge Birdsall.
Continuing, Mr.. Henderson said:
There is absolutely no foundation for
such a story. Did not the delegates who
nominated me last Summer nominate
my successor when I resigned? These
delegates were all my friends and are
friends of Judge Birdsall. When Judge
Birdsall was nominated in my place.
l appealed to all my friends to Co
everything in their power to elect him.
They took me at my word and have
worked just as hard for Judge RirdsaH
as they would have worked for RE
had remained in the race. In order to
let the voters of Iowa know the ruth
in the matter l have sent telegram
to a newspaper in Dubuque, which
truthfully states my position in the
matter"
Mr.. Henderson's telegram follows: 3
Just learned that claims are made
by Democratic journals that i am OPP
posed to election of Judge Birdsall
This is false, absolutely false. and is
not only unjust to Judge Birdsall, but
still more so to me and to my home
and to my friends. Judge BIZ dsall s
county has ever bsen true to me in
conventions and at the polls. 1 appeal
to my friends in every county to 60
all in their power for his election and
TO vote for INN, which 1 am coming
home especially to do. It is for the
interest of the district, the state and
the nation that he be elected.

TYPOS MAY COME IN.
Federation of Labor Rescinds It's
Action of Expulsion.

Chicago, Nov. 1.-The Chicago Fed
GRAFTON of Labor to-day rescinded its
action of expulsion against Typo
graphical Union No. 16, and offered to
reinstate the delegates when they shall
apply for admission.
The action of the Chicago federation
is due directly to an order from Pres
ident Samuel Gompers Of the American
Federation of Labor. who commanded
it to reinstate the typos by Nov. 10 or
lose its right ofN affiliation with the
national body. He. in turn, was
stirred by the International Typograph-
ical Union, which notified him that I'M
til he should issue the order IL would
withdraw from the American Fedora
ton. To-days action terminated a con-
troversy of two years, which had it's
origin in strike begun by the news
paper pressmen of Chicago When the
printers refused to join the strike or
to give the strikers their moral support,
maintaining that to do so would be to
violate their contract with the news
paper publishers, their delegates were
expelled from the Federation Of Labor.

BODY REFUSED INTERMENT.
Philippine Woman Could Not BE
Buried in Catholic Cemetery.

Manila, Nov. 2.--The body of native
woman, who was attended at her death
by priests of the Catholic church of
the Philippines, was refused interment
yesterday at the Pace cemetery, which
is owned by the Roman Catholic
church. There was scene at the
cemetery, md the police were called
in to maintain order. In retaliation for
this refusal of interment, Bishop Agli-
pay and other leaders Of the schismatic
movement are discussing a plan to
appeal to the courts to obtain possess
sion of certain churches and other pro-
perty in the Philippines.
This independent church movement Is
being watched closely in government
and political circles. The extent of
the detection of native clergy and their
lay adherents from the Church Of Rome
is not known, but it is. claimed that a
majority of native clergy are ~ SYM
pathy with the movement.
The appointment of an American bis
hop in the Philippines, however. and
the Americanization of the Roman
Catholic church here, with a clear de-
finition of the status of the native cler-
gy, would turn the tide of both clergy
and laity in favor of the Roman
church.

confident predictions of success by the

on widely divergent estimates of the

the Republican strength throughout

No heavy bets were reported to-day,
but many small wagers were made at
the prevailing odds of to 1 on Odell.
In some instances higher odds were
