WILSON DENoUNcEs PARKER.
Declares He Acts Like a Crazy Malay
in His Attacks.

Secretary Wilson, in an address at mass
meeting conducted by the Scandinavian re-
publican clubs of Chicago, at the Auditor
lum Theater, In that city, last night ac-
cused Judge Parker of making misstate-
ments In his recent speeches in the east
secretary Wilson asserted that Judge Park
ers remarks relative to the Philippines
were inaccurate and his assertions concern
ing President Roosevelt repeatedly made in
recent speeches. were untrue, as Mr. Bliss
and not Chairman Cortelyou collected re-
publican campaign funds. Secretary Will
son said in part:
Judge Parker says the President an
pointed his private secretary. Cortelyou. Of
the new Department of Commerce and
Labor so that he might obtain corporation
secrets, and then had him appointed chair
man Of the republican national committee
so that Cortelyou might blackmail the cor
porations for campaign purposes.
The creation of this department was sug-
gested by the National Board of Trade and
urged by the business men generally
throughout the country long before the law
creating 1t was passed. 1t was President
Mckinley who first recommended 1t to Con-
gress and 1t was he who selected Mr.. Cor
telyou as its first Secretary. so that through
him the President could direct it's organ
ization. President Mckinley died by the
hand Of the assassin and when President
Roosevelt took the oath of Office he prom
Used to carry out the Mckinley policies. He
has done SO, and this among others.
THE work of the Department of Com
merce and Labor had been only we'll begun
when the President, desiring clean cam
paign, favored the appointment OF Mr. Cor
telyou as national chairman, and the ma
t1onal committee appoined him. removing
him entirely from the Department of Com
merce and Labor and appointing Mr.. Met
calf secretary of that department in his
place.
Cortefyou does not collect handle nor
distribute campaign funds; Mr.. Bliss does
that, and Parker dare not attack Bliss In
New York Parker Is ignorant of these
facts; he attacks in laundering manner
Mckinley, Roosevelt and Cortelyou, just as
he misstated the facts about the expendi-
lures in the Philippines, hoping to reach
the White House through the most remark
able attacks on men of honor and honesty
ever witnessed by the American people.
This is the first time in our history that a
candidate for the presidency has set his
head shut his eyes, doubled his fist and ran
amuck against innocent people as the crazy
Malay does

VIRGINIA HOTEL BURNED.
Jail Caught Fire and Prisoners Fought
the Flames.

The Central Hotel at Tazewell, Va, was
almost totally destroyed by fire Wednesday
night. Only a few of the guests had retired
and no lives were lost The boarders lost
more or less of their personal effects, the
greatest loss being possibly that of Miss
Weinman of Winchester, Va, about $500
in money and other valuables. L. P. Huff
man suffered painful injury on the leg,
which was first thought to be broken. The
loss is about $4,000, with s. 7OO insurance.
The prisoners in the county Jail, which
also caught fire, were liberated. Nearly
all returned and gave themselves up One
OF the prisoners was in Jail on a charge of
murder In the first degree, and instead of
escaping he made his way to the top of the
Jan, which could not be reached by the
tiremen, and through his efforts saved the
building. ~ 'A'e

Moody Doubts Parker's Trust Remedy

Attorney General Moody addressed
large crowd at Dunkirk, N. Y, last night.
He said in part:
Judge Parker said in a recent utterance
that it was not questioned by the trusts
that a democratic administration will en-
force the law. / am not In the confidence
of the trusts and do not know what their
belief it, l doubt if they are much terrified
by Judge Parker's statement that the COM
mon law affords complete remedy for the
trusts l doubt If any lawyer in the land
agrees with Judge Parker in this statement
and he has never made it plain by what
rules of common law any action for the
suppression of trusts may be taken into the
federal courts.
No action in this respect ever has been
taken by the administration under the rules
of common law, and in all discussions In
Congress and elsewhere no suggestion has
hitherto been made that the common law
affords any remedy against combinations of
capital available for use by the government
Moreover, there is nothing in the record of
the last democratic administration which
would give the trusts much cause to fear
repetition Of it,

Accuses President of Army Favoritism

Apollo Hall. in Paterson, N. J., was pack
ed last night to hear Charles c. Black,
democratic candidate for governor and Da-
vid B. Hill. Mr.. Black spoke briefly on
equal taxation. Senator Hill was warmly
greeted and his reference to Judge Parker
brought forth applause. He said 1t was his
first appearance in that part of New Jer
sey and that he appeared in behalf of a
party which had history that ran back
to the revolution and Thomas jefferson.
That, however, was not why he asked the
support of the people for the party. 1t was
because the party proposed to do things
in the future, and not what it had done in
the past, that commended it to the people.
Continuing he said: THE country needs
a level-headed and conservative statesman
for its chief executive. 1t is weary of sem
sational and spectacular performances in
the White House. In time of war it needs
a soldier at the head of the army; in time
of peace 1t needs in the executive chair a
man of peace to enforce the laws of the
country. 1t needs a clear-sighted official
who can discern the difference between
mere popular clamor and genuine public
sentiment, one who knows and will respect
the limitations of executive, judicial and
legislative authority; one who will not al
ways carry chip on his shoulder or a
big stick in his hand but who in the high
est and best sense will be the servant of
the people and not assume to be their mas
ter: one who has not with voluble tongue
and silly pen traduced and ridiculed nearly
every one of his predecessors in office; one
who will not violate international law nor
seek to deprive weaker nations of their
rights nor, on the other hand when the
cause of humanity is at stake, be mild
and gentle as a sucking dove if the British
lion roarS from across the ocean; one who
will improve the morale of the army and
not demoralize it by the promotion of ia
vorites over the heads of gallant and mer-
torous officers whom the country wishes to
have honored. The man for the hour is
the candidate whom We have nominated

Odell Says Parker Has Dodged.

Gov Odell made several speeches in New
York city last night. At a mass meeting in
the Amsterdam Opera House he referred to

had ever been connected with a trust, and
how, when the reporters put the question to
him he declined to answer 1t. Il was read

in which he laid down the most drastic lines

Reservoir Was Not Condemned.

The bodies of the nine people killed We'd
nesday by the food from the collapse of
the Winston On. c. reservoir were buried
yesterday. The eight persons injured will
recover.
Mayor Eaton stated that the report pub
lished to the effect that the reservoir had
been condemned, but the city authorities
had failed to remove II" is utterly false.
The city officials have always considered
the structure safe. Regarding a rumor that
the mayor had been repeatedly advised that
the reservoir was leaking and dangerous,
he said there nothing in it.
1t is now known that eight houses were
wrecked several of them being washed
hundreds of yards away. All were tene-
ments except the house owned by Martin
Peoples. Seven or eight cottages sustained
slight damages. The city agrees to replace
all of the houses or pay cash to the amount
of damage TO each. The total loss to build

TAFT cHEERED BY STUDENTS.
Hidiculed Parker's Reliance on Moral
Suasion for World Influence.


Secretary Taft was the principal speaker
at the final republican rally In New Haven.
Conn. last night. He was given a warm
reception. and was cheered to the echo. the
applause continuing several minutes when
he arose to speak. The audience was SO
large that by orders of the fire marshal the
doors were closed and hundreds were I'M
able to gain admission several minutes be-
fore the meeting opened. The top gallery
was reserved for Yale students, who en-
livened the wait for the speakers with
cheering and songs.
In opening he said that there was no need
OF defending President Roosevelt before a
college audience one whose intelligence
had led them to read and study, informing
themselves upon the great questions Of the
day. After various complimentary refer
ences to Yale and the Yale spirit which he
said President Roosevelt typifies splendidly,
although not a Yale graduate, he took up
the charges by Judge Parker of extrav
agance by the republican administration.
quoting figures relating to the several civil
and military departments of the government
and charging Judge Parker with being un-
fair in the use he made of such figures
with which he was furnished.
The speaker ridiculed Judge Parker's sug
gestion that instead of terrifying the ports
OF the country and adding to the navy and
army. this country should rely upon moral
suasion. He further said
Does Judge Parker seriously mean that
we should disband our small army. destroy
our forts, sink our navy, just for the sake
OF using moral suasion upon other nations
should danger Of hostilites arise? In view
Of what is now happening between Russia
and Japan that sort of advice seems hardly
wise"
He said the American people have
spoken In support of enforcement of the
Monroe doctrine. and that the possible way
or enforcing 1t and of defending the coun-
try against danger Of attacks is to be ready
with means of defense. He added that
the guns now mounted call for an artillery
arm of $500 men. but that only 1900
men are In the artillery branch. and yet IL
war should come two or three times 2S, 600
men would be needed

Declared Tariff the Supreme Issue.

Former vice president Adlai E. Steven
son, of Illinois, addressed political meet
ing in Princeton, Ind, last night. Mr..
Stevenson's address was well received. He
said in part:
I'm my judgment the tariff is the su-
preme issue in this campaign. Other ques-
ton may be but of the hour-they will pass
with the occasion-but this is ever with us,
1t has to do with providing needed reve-
nue. for the support of our government.
When perverted from it's originla purposes,
as under the present law. 1t becomes an
engine Of oppression and imposes grievous
burdens on the people. Tariff reform is i'm
perative. This can only come through the
instrumentality of the democratic party.
Upon this issue-well to the forefront-the
democratic party in 1892 achieved a victory
unparalleled during the last fifty years Of
it's history"

Senator Cullom spoke in Cairo ILL.,. last
night on campaign issues. Discussing the
disfranchisement of colored voters in the
south, he said that some day the people of
this country were going to rise up and
see that the negro got his rights. He said
he voted for the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments. and that he never did thing
in his life that he was prouder of. He
adversely criticised the democratic party.
and charged that Parker's telegram to the
st. Louis convention was a cut and dried
affair. fixed up by David B. Hill, whom he
alluded to as cunning cuss, and other
gold democrats of the east. He said Will
liam J. Bryan was the greatest man In the
democratic party, because he stood by his
principles.
