MAHNCKE MAKES
HIS STATEMENT

City Councilman Henry Mahncke, who
has been sued by his wife for maintenance,
refused this morning to make statement
regarding the allegations made against him
by his wife in a complaint filed in the
superior court.
''When the proper time comes,' he said
this morning, 81 will have to appear in
court to answer the charges, and then my
story will be told. Until that time it is
better that | should say nothing. | have
lived in Tacoma for 20 years, and if my
record in that time is not enough to speak
for me, my words would have little effect.
The people here know me and when the
time comes they will hear what | have
to say Until that time | will make no
detailed statement"
Councilman Mahneke is manager of the
Berlin building and was in his Office there
when seen by Times man this morning.
He appeared to be much depressed over
the suit that has been brought against
him and did not appear to relish the idea
of talking.
Councilman Mahncke was sued by his
wife for $50 month for maintenance, to-
qether with attorneys fees and the costs
of the action she has brought against him:
She alleges that he has an income OF
at least 500 a month and that he is well
able to take care of her.

thusiasm to re-elect the man who has al
ways stood in his path to highest honors
from their state? If you believe all this
you won't believe what | hear every day
from Republican machine men-that the
national machine would risk defeat and
four years on the outs rather than a fur
Their characterization" of their organiza-
ton. Would a fight against Cleveland,
backed by money powers that formerly
sustained the Republican bosses. tend to
improve such a situation?
These are some of the questions that
are being asked here today. There is no
question as to Cleveland's ability to carry
the Empire state. You hear little ques-
ton of Cleveland's consenting to run.
That question arose while ago and the
ex-president himself tried to answer in
his own way. But there are two other
questions. Has any presidential candidate
ever refused nomination at the hands
o hrs. party, once it was made in conven-
ton? Can the refusal of any man to run
prevent convention stampeding for him?
The plotters of Wall street aren't worry
ing about Cleveland's part in the game.
What is worrying them just now is the
laying of a train for the certain stamped
ing for Cleveland at the Democratic con-
vention. | know that McCarren and
Murphy who will control the New York
delegation, have been approached by the
Cleveland plotters And l know that
they have not repulsed them. Tammany
is in control of things in the state now
and some of the conspirators are linked
with the tiger strongly on the basis of To-
cal corporation privileges. Besides, Cleve-
lands candidacy would probably sweep in
Democratic state administration. And
that's thing on which Murphy has his
eye just now
These are some of the outlines of the
scheme. Its operation has already pro-
crossed along some of these lines. If you
don't see some of its workings in your
state, you will soon. 1t is in the west
and middle west that the Cleveland men
expect to throw thei strongest skir,';-h
line. 1t is not exactly right to call them
Cleveland men, either. What they really
are is anti-Roosevelt men. They are Cleve-
land men only because they see in ClAvn-
land an instrument to surely shape their
ends. l.. G. MEAD.

his wildness now and comes nearer to
Rusie than any man l know. He is a

In the opinion of all the players Rusie
was the greatest of them all. When he
was right no one ever had anything on

greatest strength. He could shoot it over

next to impossible to gauge. 1t would

TO NOMINATE CLEVELAND

NEW YORK Dec. 30-Grover Cleve-
land to oppose Theo. Roosevelt for presi-
dent in the new year. This is not fairy
tale. 1t is the secretly avowed object of
very powerful band of Wall street men.
One of them represents interests ranked
among the five most powerful in the
money world. You probably will never
know who the arch-conspirators are. But
before the new year has gone on many
months you will certainly see the plan
in action 1t has been Matched, backed
and launched within this month.
Already one of the most powerful New
York dailies has begun the work for

To elect Cleveland-once the nominal

here that the scheme gets complicated.

believe he loves the president more since
Odell has been established over him? Do
you suppose the money powers that babe

He DIDN'T HAVE
ENOUGH MONEY

Because her husband had less money
than she thought, Mary johnson wants to
be legally separated from him. She alleges
in a complaint filed in the superior court
this morning that she married Aaron
johnson in Portland last August. She
says he represented to her that he was
well able to support her, but at once took
her to a cheap lodging house. There they
lived for two weeks, during which time
she alleges that she contributed the money
for their support from her savings. She
says that she gave him S35 during that
time. She was formerly Miss Mary Van
derhegan of Portland.

Third bulletin.-The fire started in the
flies and spread all through the mass of
spectacular scenery. The entire building is
now mass of flames. Fifteen members OF
the troupe, including chorus girls, are
supposed to be dead in the rear end of the
building, where they were trapped by the
flames.
The list of missing children is constant
ly growing. One who escaped from the
auditorium says women fought each other
getting out and that any child which
dropped in the hight must have met GER
tain death in the struggle.
Twelve bodies, mostly women, have been
taken out up to this time. There are a
large number still in the building. Special
police are necessary to keep back the
crowd.
AT APO Fire Marshal Campion emerged
from the building. lie says there at least
30 dead inside, and 90 others so badly in
Jured they are unable to move.
Flames are still unchecked.
The flames are still unchecked. A con-
slant stream OF fireman are now trying to
rescue the dead and injured from the
building, Campion says the dead and
injured are all over the auditorium, piled
in the aisles and also between the chairs.
All first estimates seem small. The
firemen now believe the list of dead will
probably reach 200. Approximately 20
bodies have been removed.
a long row of dead lies on the pave
ment in front of the theater, about even
" divided between the women and chill
dren.
Many of the bodies are badly burned.
Some faces and heads are almost con-
sumed. AS the work of rescue progressed
it was discovered that the holocaust was
not confined to the pit. The galleries are
Uttered with dead.
