PARKER STANDS
BY HIS SPEECH
Somebody Evidently Tried to
Make Trouble.
PUBLISH GaRBLED VERSION
NAME OF OFFENDING news
PAPER NOT GIVEN.

Esopus, n. Y. Aug. 12.-Judge Parker
made no Interpolation on the gold
standard in his speech Of acceptance at
the ceremonies which occurred at Rose
mount on Wednesday. His manuscript
as given in advance to the press was
followed TO. the letter in so far as ref
erence was made TO the gold standard
telegram sent to the st. Louis CONVEX
ton. Some few changes of phraseology,
or 20 De more exact. of synonyms. We're
made in relation TO other subjects. but
not one deviation affecting the original
meaning Of the speech This state
ment is made upon the highest author
ity obtainable and is confirmed by sew
eral newspaper men who followed the
speech during its delivery.
When Judge Parker's attention was
called TO what purported to be his in
terpoiation he made it clear that he
had no objection to the circulation of
story to the effect that he had en-
phasized his conviction that the gold
standard is firmly and irrevoca bly, es-
tabiished, as it had been his intention
to place as much emphasis upon his
position IN that regard as was possible
for him to do. Some indignation is felt
at Rosemount, however, at what ap-
pears to Judge Parker to be an at
had written one speech for national
consumption, and delivered another for
the benefit of those who We're present
to hear for themselves what the candi-
date had to say.
1mputation Resented.
Hints of double-dealing on the part
OF Judge Parker have aroused in him a
feeling of resentment that such charges
should be made without the slightest
foundation in fact
The alleged Interpolation is as fol-
lows:
Il want my position on this question
thoroughly understood. I thought it
was understood before / sent my tel
egram to the st. Louis convention. But
in order that there may be no misuu-
derstanding in the future, desire to
reiterate on this occasion that I am
unalterably. frrevocably and heartily
opposed to any change in the existing
money standard"
The statement above accredited TO
Judge Parker is not regarded at Rose
mount to be as convincing as that
which he did use. and which was print
ed as part of Judge Parker's speech.
1t is considered involved in comparison
with the concise language of the speech
itself It was made plain at Rosemount
that Judge Parker would stand by his
speech as written and with the unim-
Dortant changes Of delivery, but that
he wants it understood there has not
been and will be no double-dealing II
relation to the gold standard or other
questions discussed in his speech. He
believes that the country understands
his convictions, but he has made It
clear that If misunderstanding does
arise he viii strengthen in every W5y
possible the stand he has taken on The
money question. He entertains no fear
Of loss of votes on that subject aud
has declared that If such a danger we're
manifested his position would remain
unchanged to the end Of the campaign

CRISIS FOR RUSSIA.
Full Details of Sea Battle Are Eager
ly Awaited.

st. Petersburg. Aug. l., 2:10 D. M
Everything else, from a military
standpoint, seems to be forgotten in
the general anxiety concerning the
fate of the Port Arthur squadron. The
future plans Of the admiralty hang
upon the preservation of the bulk Of
the squadron, and il is not too much 10
say that the present is regarded as be-
ing the most critical moment of the
war. The admiralty until noon de-
clared that it was without official ad-
vices as 70 the whereabouts Of the
squadron, and could not confirm the
report that the protected cruiser Novik
and another Russian Warship. (tEe
battieShip CZareFitch}. had put into
Using Chou. at the entrance of Kiao
Chou bay, the German concession on
the Shan Tung peninsula. Neverthe-
less. az stated by the Associated Press
last night, private dispatches seem to
show that the squadron may have been
communicating with Russia after
passing Shan Tung prornontory, and
hope is high that the squadron sue
cessfully broke through The japanese
ships and is now Steaming for Naldi-
vOstok. The departure of the squadron
in the face of tie superior japanese
fleet is commended by all classes. The
papers consider that the squadron is
taking desperate chances, but at the
same time they are loud in their praise
of its dash
The Russ says:
The squadron is now somewhere in
Pacific waters. discharging its heroic
duty The prayers of all Russia ae-
company it."
The Novoe Vremya believes that tie
vagueness of Admiral Togo's report
shows that he is trying to hide un-
pleasant truths now definitely known.
The armored cruiser Bayan did not
accompany the squadron, the injury
she sustained by the explosion Of a
floating mine having rendered this i'm
possible.
The admiralty declines. to confirm OF
