Mr.. Bryan was introduced tonight bv
GOV. Beckham, who said that though
twice defeated, he was the best loved
citizen IN public life.
Bryan in his address compared Henry
Wattefson, the Louisville editor to the
Greek character in "Quo Vadis - who
after life of crime. repented. ana said
T. too. am a Christian" He said he
hoped Watterson would vet repent and he
a Democrat.
Bryan said GoebePs murder was on

had determined he should never be gov

Del he should never be governor is alive
now and his name is mentioned in CON
nect1on with the Craftsmanship of the
Democratic national committee
Bryan said he did not want a reorgan-
lzatl0n OF the Democratic party, because
he did not want the party to take the
chance of falling into the hands of fine
money power. Commercialism in noIi
tics, he declared, was now the greatest
menace to the country. He said the
money question was no more dead now
than it was in 1886, and discussed trusts
and monopolies. He scored President
Roosevelts policy toward Cuba and PAN

ROAD MUST PAY FOR
"EGGING" A POLITICIAN
Southern Line Must Pay for an Agents
Rash Acts.

WILMINGTON N. c., Feb. 3-For-
ty-five hundred dollars for fifteen odori-
ferrous eggs is the price the supreme court
has gust put on this article of commerce
by a decision in the action of Henry f.
SeaWell against a railway company
In the year 1900 Mr.. Seawel was the
Republican, opulist candidate for lieu
tenant governor. During the campaign he
went to the town of Shelby to fill an APP
pointment of Senator Marion Butler In
the course of his remarks he excited the
anger of the Democrats in his audience
After his speech Mr.. Seawell went to
the railroad station and a crowd of in
furiated Democrats followed him. Mr.
Seawell bought his ticket and proceeded
to promenade on the platform. The Dem
ocrats armed themselves with eggs which
had been in existence for several months
under hot sun, and as Mr.. SeaweI ap-
peared on the platform the eggs were
hurled at him. They burst all around him,
and fifteen by actual count struck his ap-
parel. In addition to the disgusting ap-
pearance which the contents of the eggs
gave to his clothes, the intensified odor
arising therefrom made Mr.. SeaWell de-
spise himself for the time being.
For this indignity and assault and bat
terry Mr.. SeaWell brought suit against the
railway company, because. the agent at
the station and other employees of the
company actively engaged in dashing stale
eggs against him. The case was tried in
the superior court and was decided in
favor of the plaintiff The supreme court
has just affirmed the decision.

COLD WEATHER CAUSES
LOSS TO RAILROADS
Freight Congestion Results From Snow
Storms and Cold.

Railroads in the East, West and North
west have suffered during the past two
weeks as they have never before in their
history from extreme cold and bad snow
storms, and in consequence it was diff
cult for them to operate freely and eco
nomicalIy.
The physical conditions of the engines
was reduced 40 to so per cent by the zero
weather and freight congestion prevailed
at many points. In the extreme North
west freight trains had to be temporarily
abandoned. Cars are too few in sections
ing from, and the movement was re-
Stricted.
The Eastern roads Jared even worse
central New York and Pennsylvania pre-
vailed the greater part Of the time and
the roads there have suffered from the
same cause for several weeks. In conSe-
quenee freight became more congested
than ever before, and much freight had
to be refused.

MILEAGE TICKET
MAY CAUSE ROW
Western Lines Hold Conference
on interchangeable Forms
for Slips.

Representatives of the principal western
roads are engaged in a conference in an
endeavor to bring order out of chaos on
the question of interchangeable mileage.
AS the proposition stands. the Rock ISL
and and the Missouri Pacific are mem
bers of both the trans Missouri and
Southwestern associations, and for that
reason complications have arisen which
are likely to disturb existing conditions.
The new interchangeable mileage tick
ct is to be put in use March 1. The trans
Missouri roads other than the Rock Island
and Missouri Pacific want these forms
of tickets and are urging that they be
used by both associations. The trans
missouri roads propose to use strip
:. 000-mil form, while the Southwestern
roads use a credential form. The ma
jOritv of the trans Missouri roads wish to
discontinue the use of the credential form
anywhere south of Kansas City.
This proposition the Rock Island and the
Missouri Pacific regard as unreasonable,
and the representatives of these roads are
doing their utmost to down the proposed
form of ticket. Executive officials of the
Rock Island and the Missouri Pacific say
would place them a a great iSadvantage
in competing with such roads as the Mis-
souri,, Kansas & Texas. and for this rea-
son they are not inclined to comply with
the arrangement entered into.
Low Settlers Rates.
Missouri territory is not a productive field
at best. so far as railroad business is con-
cerned, and rather than comply with the
interchangeable mileage agreement they
would solve the difficulty by abandoning
the territory altogether.
The low one-way settlers rates are an
other proposition claiming the attention
of the Southwestern lines. 1t is proposed
TO make a one-way settlers rate to Ok
lahoma. Indian Territory and Texas from
Feb, 16 to March Is.
The rates proposed are: From Chicago
to Oklahoma and Indian Territory, $40;
to Texas points, $11.50; from st. Paul
and Minneapolis to Oklahoma and Indian
Territory. SIS; to Texas points, SIG. so;
from Kansas City and lower Missouri
river gateways to Oklahoma and Indian
Territory. Sc so; to Texas points, SIS;
from. Omaha to Oklahoma and Indian
Territory. 50; to Texas points, $40. so;
from. Memphis to Oklahoma and Indian
Territory, $3.50; to Texas points, SIS.
If at the present conference the rate
proposition should fail of adoption, it is
likely that one or two lines will put the
scale into force by Independent action
Such move as this would force the COM
peting lines to adopt similar plan. 1t
is likely that the representatives Of the
roads will be in session several days be-
fore final action is taken.

Commerce of Toledo, as having been

ment of Lorenz and his brother and
Machen, the loans having been made
to enable them to develop their oil
properties in Wood county, Ohio. Mr..
Carr further testified that Machen had
sold out his interest to Lorenz, the
bank accepting the single Endorsement
Of George E. Lorenz.
Earlier in the day Diller p. Croft
produced various checks in favor of his
brother as evidence that he had paid
him all that was due as his share of the
profits. Mr.. Croft explained his failure
to send remittances to Lerenz after
November, 1902, by the fact that the
government still owed Croft Brothers
$4,000, and that it was necessary to
pay the manufacturers of the fastener.
