PARKER STANDS BY TIE ORIGINAL NOIntefpO|atIOn Made in Speech
 of Acceptance INDIGNATION 1T ROSEMOUNT Attempt Has Evidently Been Made to Create Impression That Demo- cratic Candidate Was Guilty
 of Double Dealing.
 
INDIGNATION 1T ROSEMOUNT

Esopus. N. r, August 12.-Judge Parker made no interpolation on the gold stand ard in his speech of acceptance at the cere- monies which occurred at Rosemount on Wednesday.
 His manuscript as given in advance to the press was followed to the letter in-so- far as reference was made to the gold standard telegram sent to the St. Louis convention. Some few changes of phrase were made in relation to other subjects. but no deviation respecting the original meaning of the speech. This statement is made upon the highest authority ob- tainable and is confirmed by several news paper me who followed the speech during it's delivery.
 When Judge Parker's attention was called to what purported to be his inter- polation he made 1t clear that he had no objection to the circulation of story to the effect that he had emphasized his firmly and irrevocably established as 1t had been his intention to place as much emphasis upon his position in that re- BdIQ dS IL WdS pOSSlDiG 4OI lliu AO d0t
 Indignation Is Felt.
 Some indignation Is felt at Rosemount however. at what appears to Judge Parker to be an attempt to create the impression that he had written one speech for nation- al consumption and delivered another for the benefit of those who were present to hear for themselves what the candidate had to say.
 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 follows:
 The Alleged Interpolation.
 'T want my position on this policy thor oughly understood. I thought 1t was un- derstood before I sent my telegram to the St. Louis convention. But in order that there may bet no misunderstanding in the future, desire to reiterate on this occasion that I am unalterably, irrevoc- ably and heartily opposed to any change in the existing money standard"
 The statement accredited to Judge Parker is not regarded at Rosemount to be as convincing as that which he did use. and which was printed as a part of Judge Parker's speech. It is considered involved in comparison with the concise language of the speech itself. It was made plain at Rosemount that Judge Parker will stand by his speech as writ ten, and with the unimportant changes of delivery, but that he wants 1t under stood there has not been, and will not be doubled a line in relation to the gold standard or other questions discussed in his speech. He believes that the country understands his convictions, but he has made 1t clear that If misunderstanding does arise he will strengthen every way possible the stand he has taken on the money question. He entertains no fear of loss of votes on that subject, and he has declared that if such a danger were manifested his position would remain un- changed to the end of the campaign.

 PLENTY OF NERVE
ENTERS WINDOW, cRAWLs OVER SLEEPING CHILD, GETS WHAT HE WANTED AND DEPARTS WITHOUT BEING CAUGHT.

Columbus, Ga, August 12.--(Special.)- the latest of the series of some thirty burglaries in Columbus and suburbs the past few days was undoubtedly the bold est. At some hour last night a burglar entered the home of J. H. Brooks, Jr., three miles southeast of the city on the Buena Vista road.

It is thought that the bur glar tried them all until he came to the window left unfastened.
 A child slept on bed near the window and the burglar crawled over the child without waking it. went through a lighted room, entered the room where Mir. Brooks was sleeping, took charge of loaded shotgun which he had at the head of his bed in waiting for burglars, picked up his pants, and retreated from the house by the same route. crawling over the sleep ing child without awaking it. although eneumbered with these several articles. In the pocket of the trousers he found the keys to MT. Brooks store and safe. the store being short distance from the mouse He entered the store bg means of the key.
 Just here the mystery of the affair de- velops. There was nothing to prevent the burglar from unlocking the safe and taking the money within, about $400 He not only made no effort to get into the safe as far as can be discovered, but took no merchandise from the store. noth- ing whatever missing. He locked the store and threw the key away, and either threw away the safe key or else carried 1t off with him. The store key was found this morning. MT. Brooks could not get into his safe. An expert from the city went out and shortly after noon succeed ed in opening the safe, when 1t was found that nothing had been taken from 1t. MT. Brooks pants were found in the yard.

BRYAN LOSES THE
 REQUEST OF S5O,OOO

 of Errors.

New Haven. Conn.,, August 12.-A decis- ion adverse to William J. Bryan in the contest over the will of the late P. s. Bennett of New York and this city, was handed down late this afternoon by the supreme court of errors after an all day session. The decision virtually denies that Mir.

By this letter the widow was asked to give s5O.oOo to Mir. Bryan and his faimly.

 William J. Bryan ct. al, appeal from probate, no error, opinion by Chief Jus tice Torrance"

PelSin, August 12.--4 p. m.-The Che Foo incident is discussed freely here, and 1t is the general opinion in diplomatic cir cles that Japan has committed, to say the least, grave indiscretion. The re- port current here that the Chinese war ships at Che Foo did nothing to prevent the capture of the Ryeshitelni is inclined to place China in an unenviable position.
