Mr.. DAVIS ONE SIDED Fra UREs

AS might be expected from his connec
ton with financial enterprises. Vice fres
idential Candidate Davis has considerable
to say regarding the fiscal affairs or the
nation in his letter accepting the Demo-
cratic nomination. The venerable West
virginian shows a skill in handling fig
ures which explains, to a great degree,
the remarkable success that has attend
ed his efforts to accumulate wealth. but
at the same time his quotations of sta
tistics are suggestive Of the sharp tracer
who Is ~endeavoring to best" an adver-
sary in a business deal.
Mr.. Davis displays commendable solicit
tude for the great Increase in govern
ment expenses during Republican admin
istrations. For example. he begins with
the incumbency of Buchanan. who is not
often quoted In democratic literature of
today. and shows that the per capita tax
for national expenses Tin 1860 was $2.oi:
in the last year of Cieveland's admins
tration it was $3.50 and under Roosevelt
it has amounted to $7.I4.
These figures cannot be refuted but
the person who studies them may ne en-
lightened and cheered by a study Of
other statistics bearing upon the same
periods. For instance. the per capita err
culation Of currency approximately was
as follows; Buchanan. S14: Cleveland.
sci: Roosevelt. $50. In the last year or
Buchanan's administration the savings
bank deposits of the country amounted
to about $14s. 900. oeo: under Cleveland
about 1000. 900. 0O0: under Roosevelt apou:
5000. 900. 900.
Applying the per capita process to this
exhibit. II appears that in 1860 patrons of
savings banks had about IS apiece to pay
their 81 per capita. while In 1904 they have
nearly $40 each upon which to draw b
check to pay the 81 tax.
Mr.. Davis evidently forgot to take a
peep into the p~ocketbook OF the Ameri-
can citizen of today before calling atten-
ton to his financial burdens. The afore-
said citizen sees that his tax has more
than trebled In forty years. but he aiso
observes that his bank accoun; mas IN
creased eight times.

AN OHIO RIVER DISASTER
Tow Boat Blown up, Ten Men Killed
 and Sixteen Injured.

Louisville, Ky, May 2G.-The tow boat Fred Wilson was torn to splinters and ten men were blown to pieces and 1G others injured b va tremendous ex- plOsion of the boats boilers at 3:3o o'clock this morning.
 Of the g persons aboard the boat. only seven escaped unhurt Of the in jured, enc will probably die. The forca of the explosion was so great it shat tered the windows and awakened the occupants of houses in Louisville four miles from the scene.
 Only three bodies thus far have been recovered. The bodies of the seven victims are thought to be pinned under the wreckage and may not be recover ed for several days. Three deck hands reported as missing and thought to have swelled the number of dead to 13. were afterwards found in local hes pitals
 The Fred Wilson was the property of the Monongahela River Consolidated Coal and Coke company and at the time the accident occurred was ar ranging her tow near the River View Park, about sixty feet from shore
 No good explanation of the cause of the accident has been offered. The most plausible theory is offered by some of the deck hands who suggest that there may have been an excess of mud in the boilers.

MISS ROOSEVELT
Principal Attraction at St.
 Louis Yesterday
Curiosity of Worlds Fair Visitors to See the Presidents Daughter, Drove Them Almost to Mob Violence.

St. Louis, May 26.-A crowd of five thousand persons, more than three fourths of whom were women, jCstled each other for a glimpse of Miss Alice Roosevelt in the union station this af- ternoon, when she arrived for a weeks visit.
 Four hundred women broke through the gates to the midway when the train bringing Miss Roosevelt, Miss Alice Ward, of Washington and several maids arrived. The women crowded aout Miss Roosevelt at the train steps, delaying her advance in spite of the protection furnished by two policemen. who led the rarty. Miss Irene Catlin, a guest of Miss Roosevelt, and her brother, Treator Catlin, had great diff ficuity in keeping near the party.
 When the midway was passed, Miss Roosevelt and her escorts broke into a rapid walk, while the crowd followed with shouts Of "HurIah for Miss Roosevelt" "There she is" until the carriage was reached at the entrance station. So great was the rush at the carriage that the presidents daughter was almost forced against the wheels before she could enter. As soon as she was seated the carriage was driven away rapidly.

WON BY A MUZNE
The Picket SnatChed ViC- tory From Irish Lad
Forty Thousand People Yelling for the Favorite, While the Western
 Horse Was Reaching for the Money.

New York, May 26.-Con1ing down along the rail in the last few strides of the run to the wire The Pickett, Vests champion in the Brooklyn handicap, snatched victory away from Irish Lad, the Brooklyn winner of last year and the metropolitan winner of this year It was scarcely more than the difference of a head, but the west erner finished stronger than the Dur yea colt, whose terrific pace with Her mis up to the very home stretch would have tried to the utmost the stoutest of heart and the sturdiest of limb. The frantic cheers, which had been ring ing from the throats of nearly 10000 spectators died away when it was re- alized that Irish Lad had gone down to defeat.
 There was an extraordinary scene of excitement during the brief space of time, which elapsed after the strug- gling thoroughbreds had rassed the three-quarter post. Cries from thou sands urging on their favorite and shrieking the name of his jockey rent the air. When Hermis fell back upon entering the stretch, and it seemed al most certain that Irish Lad would re- peat his victory of last year forty thousand persons screamed his name, men threw their hats into the air and embraced one another cut of sheer de light at being fortunate enough to have witnessed so grand a struggle. They did not realize how close up Hell gerson had brought the pet of the Waldeck stables, nor did they observe that Shaw, on Irish Lad, was not as near the rail as he might have been. The western horse responded nobly to the call. Through the gap barely wide enough for him to pass, he made his run and won by the length of his muzzle.
 Proper was third, two lengths be- hind Irish Lad, and a nose in front of Hermis. McChesney and Claude were at the end of the procession. The time for mile was 1:39 2-5 and for a mile and a quarter 2:06 3-5, one and one-fifth seconds slower than the race was made by Irish Lad last year. The handicap was worth $20,000 of which $250O went to the second horse and $1, 800 to the third.

SUMMIT BRANCH HORROR
Nine of the Ten Men Killed Were of
 the ResCuing Party.

Harrisburg, Pa, May 26.-All but one of the ten men killed and fcrty over come from sulphur fumes in the tun- nel of the Summit branch colliery of the Susquehanna Coal company at Williamstown, yesterday, were mem- bers of Q relief party.
 Enoch Morgan, a mirer was the first man killed. The other victims were members of the rescuing party, which at one time was made up of more than one hundred men.
 An intimation of the presence of an extraordinary quantity of sulphurous gas in the mine was first encountered by the miners when they were walking through the tunnel, which extends from Bear valley to the Williams val ley side of the mountain.
 Shortly afterwards, the coal train came through and picked up some of these men insensible from gas and hur- ried them to the Williams valley side. A relief train, loaded with rescuers was hurriedly sent into the mine to rescue the others. Before the train had trav- eled any distance, the ,rescuers were lettering and falling to the ground, fa- tally stricken or seriously overcome.
 Despite the immense odds against them the rescuing party worked For ty insensible victims and bodies of the dead were placed on the relief train and rushed to the mouth of the tun- mel. It is believed the gas accumulated because of extensive heat on the sur face, and the large number of trains which went through the mine.

BY WAY OF PARIS.

Paris, May 26.-The St. Petersburg correspondent Of the Petit Parisien telegraphs that according to a private dispatch from Lioa Yang, General Ku- rcka's army has begun an attack on the Russian position at the Liao Yang road and that it is believed that what will prove to be q decisive battle is progressing.
 A correspondent at St. Petersburg of the Echo de Paris says:
 'The forces of Generals Kindravoitcn and Rennenkampf, which are between the Japanese armies at Feng Wang Cheng and south of Liao Yang are es- timated at more than 25,OOO men and include a large number of Cossacks. The portion of the Japanese first army between two Russian forces is most critical.

M'KINNEY DISMISSED.
But Will Be Arrested Again and
 Charged With Perjury.

Denver, May 26.-A Republican spe- cial from Cripple Creek, Colo, says: Acting upon the request of the district attorney, the district court today dis missed the case against Charles H. Mckinney, charged with attempting to wreck the Florence and Cripple Creek railroad passenger train.
 Mckinney confessed to complicity in the alleged attempt, and charged sev- eral prominent officials of the Cripple Creek Miners union with being the in- stigators of the crime.
 All the latter were acquitted upon triala and Mckinney was held on the strength cf his confession. He was re leased. About midnight a warrant sworn to by Attorney Hangs, repre- senting the miners union, charging Mckinney with perjury, was placed in the hands of a constable for service The charge is based upon testimony given by Mckinney in the trial of the union officials.
