NO NEW PARTY, SAYS BRYAN.
All Reforms Sought by PopuIists Can
be Secured Thru the Democracy.


Linvoln, Neb., Dec. 1.-THE recent
criticism of William Jennings Bryan
and the democratic party by Tom Wat
son of Georgia, prompted prolonged
response in Bryan's Commoner yes
terday. After declaring that he is not
a candidate for any office and that the
reforms demanded by the populists can
only be secured thru the triumph OF
the democrats, Bryan says:
"It is not only unnecessary to or
ganize new party for dealing with
these questions, but it would be unwise
to do so. The formation of party IS
a slow and difficult process and is only
possible in a great crisis. Only once
since the adoption of our constitution
has a great part. been organized, and
the question which brought the repub-
lican party into existence was one OF
such tremendous magnitude that 1t In
volved the country in civil war.
"It is Mr.. BrJ ans purpose to con-
tribute toward the securing of every
reform within reach. To him the fu-
ture seems full of hope. He believes
that the democr atic party is going to
meet the expeditions of it's members,
and disappoint the fears of men, VINO,
like Mr.. Watson, want to see 1t de-
stroyed."

Cummins mania has broken out badly
in one or two spots. 4. small weekly
paper in the town Of Arlington is en-
gagged in making desperate efforts to
convince everyone that The governor Is
n dismal failure as a public man. An
explanation was given the writer.
Some years ago when the Cummins
people were trying to carry the Fay
cite county the Cummins managers re-
ceived sundry demands for money for
support in carrying the county and
turned them down coldly. Later the
man who had made the demands and
who wanted to pose as an ardent Cum
minis man If paid sufficiently. turned
up in Des Moines after appointment as
oil inspector. He was Of course turn
ed down. Hence the bitterness Of op-
position to the governor now. And 1t
illustrates much of the character Of the
attacks upon the chief executive Of the
state.

Of Iowa. S. A. Brewster is said to be
planning to go to Joliet. ILL.,, to be-
come connected with paper. A. w

The governor of Iowa yesterday re-
ceived an offer of ten bonds OF the state
of South Carolina. T IDS unusual pro-
ceeding is the sequel ,,f the movement
on the part of the holders Of the re-
pudiated bonds of several states to Sc
cure their payment. ! follows the suit
Of South Dakota against South Caro-
lima wherein judgmen. was secured on
some of the bonds given to South Da-
kota. Some time ago Governor Cum
MINIS received circular warning him
against this movement and pointing
out that about dozen states would
be affected by the making good of re-
pudiated bonds. Very likely the state
of Iowa will decline to enter upon any
such scheme of collecting old bonds.

The Steamer Glen Island, New
York to New Haven, Burns
at Sea
HEROIC WORK OF THE CREW
Officer. and Men of the Burning,
Steamer Succeed in Saving All Hue
Two Of the Passengers - Seven Of
tho Crew Perish = Property. Loss
Quarter Of Million.

New York, Dec. IL. - Nine persons,
including two passengers, lost their
lives early today in the burning OF the
steamer Glen Island, bound from New
York to New Haven. The steamer
drifted aground on Captains Island In
Long Island Sound and was burned
with it's heavy cargo to the water'y
edge The fire was discovered before
midnight of Execution point in the
Sound. How 1t started is not known,
but suddenly the whole boat seemed
to become filled with smoke and tho
electric lights were extinguished.
The boats were hurrfedly lowered,
and all but two passengers and seven
members Of the crew escaped. One
Of the lost passengers was a man and
the other woman, residents Of New
York.
A tug which sighted the Glen Island
afire dashed to the scene and picked
up the, passengers and crew from the
small boats She placed them aboard
the steamer Corning, which brought
them back to New York.
AS soon as the vessel was discovered
on fire, Captain MacAllister sent men
thru the cabin and the passengers wer9
quickly aroused. Owing to the fact
that considerable ice was banked a.
long the shore 1t was not possible to
reach safety in that direction, and the
vessel drifted toward Captains Island.
Efforts to check the spread OF the
flames were without avail, and life,
boats were prepared. With Mfe belts
about them the passengers were quick
" transferred to the small boats. Eight
persons got into one and fifteen into
another. The Ice smashed some Of the
boats. So heavily laden was the Sec
'ofld boat that Il threatened every mo-
n1ent to 5capsize. i. All, the survivors
reached this city at seven this morn
Ing. Beyond having suffered severely
from cold and nervous shock none were
injured. The Glen Island, which was
commanded by Captain MacAlfster,
who was the last person to leave the
wreck, was constructed from the ruins
OF the City of Richmond. The latter.
curiously enough, was also burned.
The loss on the steamer and cargo 10
estimated at a quarter Of a mtllion.
That more lives were not sacrificed IS
undoubtedly due to the personal cour-
age Of the officers and crew and the
excellent discipline maintained when
horrible death for all of the ten pas
sengers and crew Of twenty one seem
ed almost a certainty. Persons who
lost their lives were those whose es-
cape had been entirely cut of before
the alarm reached them. The survdv-
ors reached the city at seven this NOR
ming a little worse for their exper-.
ience, altho many were scantily cloth
ed. Most of them were asleep when
the fire broke out and when aroused
did not stop to dress, but FASTENED to
the decks where they were immedda1-
ely loaded into lifeboats.

THINK HILL is UNFAIR
Members Of Interstate Commission Sa,
His Views are Hysterical.

Mom0erS OF INTERSTATE SoU1vulSSIou Gay
His Views are Hysterical.
Washington, Dec. II. The inter-
view with James j. HIN in New York,
in which Mr.. Hill declared that the in
| terstate commerce commission would
be made the most powerful body OF
men on earth by carrying out the pres
ident's recommendation that it be CIV
en- authority arbitrarily to fix railroad
rates." attracted wide attention. The
interview was read with deep interest
by senators and representatives, by
the railroad officials who are in Wash
ington to oppose any drastic legisla-
tion, and by members Of the Interstate
commerce commission.
The railroad officials and the con-
gressmen who are opposed to increas-
ing the powers Of the commission said
Mr.. Hill had clearly stated the rail-
plain that serious trouble would fol-
low the granting of Increased power
to the commission.
Members Of the commission contend
ed that Mr.. Hill had not stated the
case fairly and Judson G. Clements.
wee chairman, Of the commission, gave
out the following statement defining
the increased authority which the COM
mission seeks and the reasons for 1T:
"I know of no proposition of the
character mentioned by Mr.. Hill to
give the commission "a right to fix
rates Arbitrarily The presidents rec
concentrations contained no such sug-
gesllnn, bnt do evince keen appre-
ciaticn OF the weakness Of the present
law and the need of its Improvement.
Neither has any such proposition ever
emanated from The commission.
1.-The fair adjustment of railway
rates is too important a matter TO De
discussed or dealt with intemperately.
1t should be considered dispasslonately
in the true light of actual facts ana
conditions and with the utmost care
for all interests involved
The Real Proposition.
"The real proposition that is being
seriously considered by some ana mys-
titled by others is that, when the COM
mission has, upon complaint and notice
to the carrier. and after a full inVestl-
cation, conducted like proceeding IN
court, found the rate in question to be
unreasonable. it shall designate and fix
such rate as shall be found to be rea-
sonable, and that this shall go into
effect unless the same shall be con-
demned by the court. Certainly such
a proceeding cannot be fairly called ar
bitrary and autocratlc.
"There is no question of confisca-
ton involved. The object is to give
equal protection to the shipper and to
the public. as well as to the property
of the carriers.
IF shippers have any rights in the
issue according to the theory OF the
present law, there ought IN all gooa
conscience to be some method devised
whereby they can be definitely and ac-
tually ascertained and protected, with
ont the sacrifice of the property Of just
interests of either party"
