These significant facts indicate a con-

an inspection of the lands by Senator
Clark's agents was contemporaneous
with the entries and that large sums OF
money we're loaned to Cobban by Sena-
tor Clark to be used in buying the lands.

emphatic views:

to show that facts came TO the knowI-
edge OF the defendant (Senator Clark

the manner in which these lands were

Says Clark Knew of Deal.
Mr. Maynard charges that Senator
Clark knew of the deal that was going
on, and furnished the money TO Cobban
for carrying out the plan.
The land was all bought by Senator
Clark from Cobban, according TO Sen
ator CIaTk's statement. between June,
1899, and June. 1900, It was bought in
good faith and with legal advice as to
the validity of title, etc. The total
amount paid by Senator Clark for all
the land he got was $217, ,571-25.
Cobban stated that he bought the land
in 1893. in good faith and without inten-
tion of speculation. and that he did not
act as the agent of Senator Clark. That
Cobban and Griswold formed a plan to
act together in obtaining the land, is
admitted by Cobban. but he stated in
court that they did nothing fraudulent.
The land he stated, was bought out
right from entrymen and entrywon en-
IN a straight business manner. He then
sold the lands to Senator Clark.
Opinion in Favor of Clark.
In his opinion in favor of Senator
Clark. Judge Ross. Of the circuit court,
said that Senator Clark holds the equit-
able title to the land. There was moth
ing in the evidence, said Judge Ross. to
show that Senator Clark was party to
any frauds. and that the evidence does
not sustain the anega lions of the Gov
ernment TO that effect
p, If Senator Clark PAS in coIIusion with
Cobban. asks Judge Ross. why should
ne have paid him 50 large a sum as

incredible that the appellee Senator
Clark would have permitted his partner
in the fraud TO profit so largely at his
expense if he had been party TO such a

standards from side to side and in front

A Strike of Jewish Bakers Causes
Trouble in the Hebrew Dis
trict of the East Side.
BREAD is THROWN into CUTTERS
Policemen Were Called Out to Quell
Disturbances and in One Instance
the Reserves Were Called
Upon to Subdue
the Mob.

New York, Aug. 10.-Women yester-
day joined in the strike operations of
the kosher bread bakers, who are pro-
ducing bread famine in the Hebrew
quarters of New York and Brooklyn.
Hundreds of loaves of this bread
were taken by women from the ped
dlers who attempted to sell them and
thrown into the cutters, where the
mud caused by recent rains instantly
ruined the foodstuff
The strikers attempted to locate the
shops which baked this bread, since
it was more plentiful yesterday than
during former days of the strike. Phil
adelphia shops are said to have sup
piled some Of the kosher loaves and,
acting on this rumor, the strikers say
they will send. committee to Phila-
delphia to stop the expectation to New
York. if possible. President Kurtz, of
the striking bakers organization, sent
a delegation to Brooklyn to use peace
ful inducements on the bakers of a
Park avenue bake shop, one of the
largest in Brooklyn, to stop supplying
bread to the Hebrews of the East Side
of Manhattan.
There was a riotous demonstration
in front of a delicatessen store in Clin-
ton street when a gang of young
rOushs discovered that the store was
offering kosher bread for sale. They
rushed the store, seized the bread and
threw it into the street. Half a block
away was the Headquarters of the
strikers. The police and many

Tiotous scene ensued. Reserves of the
Union Market police station finally
dispersed the crowd.
Two policemen were injured in
bread riot which occurred in the base
ment of a Hebrew bakery in Allen
street. Two hundred men entered the
shop and, overpowering the policeman
who guarded it, carried out barrels of
dough which were ready for baking
and emptied it into the gutter. Sew
eral barrels of flour also were emptied
into the street Extra police were
called out to disperse the mob.

TRADE REVIEW.
Adverse Factors of Temporary Ma
ture Are Noted in the Busi-
ness Situation.

New York. Aug. 12.-R. G. Dun {
Coz Weekly Review of Trade says:
Trade reports are less uniformly
favorable but adverse factors are of a
temporary nature, and the net result
for the week is satisfactory. Numer-
GUS strikes have occurred, eXerting
the customary pernicious influence
over business, and the epidemic of
yellow fever is restricting southern
trade. On the other hand. thermal
conditions have facilitated retail
trade, crop prospects have greatly i'm
proved, and out of town buyers are
numerous in all the leading markets.
Manufacturing plants are increas-
ingly active, textile mills still occupy
ing the strongest position, while shoe
shops are not making concessions to
get business. Iron furnaces and steel
mills make progress but less rapidly.
Lumber mills and dealers are having
an exceptionally busy season. Rail
way earnings in July were "A per
cent. greater than in the same month
last year.
Failures this week numbered 222 in
the United States, compared with 22c
year ago, and 10 in Canada, against
33 last year.

TRUSTS MUST
OBEY THE LAW
President Roosevelt Delivers a Very
Notable Address at Chau-
tauqua, N. Y.
BELIEVES IN FEDERAL CONTROL
The President Declares that the Great
Corporations of This Country
Should be Regulated by
the National Gov
eminent.

Chautauqua, n. Y, Aug. 12.-"Let
us give President Roosevelt the Chau-
tauqua salute at its best" With these
words Bishop John Vincent yesterday
closed his brief introduction of the
president to the Chautauqua assembly.
Instantly 10000 white handllerchiefs
fluttered in the air over the heads of
the vast audience in the great amphi-
theatre. 1t was an inspiring salute
and as President Roosevelt stepped
forward the audience rose as one per
son and cheered enthusiastically In
his speech he said:
"One of the main features of our
national government policy should be
the effort to secure effective Supervis-
ory and regulatory control over all
great corporations doing an interstate
business.
Unfortunately, some corporations,
and very wealthy ones at that, eX-
haust every effort which can be sug-
gested by the highest ability, or Sc
cured by the most lavish expenditure
of money, to defeat the purposes of
the laws on the statute books.
1T has become our conviction that
In some cases, such as that of the beef
packers recently indicted in Chicago,
it is impossible longer to show leni-
ency. Moreover. if the existing law
proves to be inadequate, so that under
established rules of evidence clear
violations may not be readily proved,
defiance of the law must inevitably
lead to further legislation. This leg
islatiOn may be more drastic than |
would prefer.
Either they will have to submit to
reasonable supervision and regulation
by the national authorities. or else
they will ultimately have to submit to
governmental action of a far more
drastic type. l think our people would
be unwise if they let any eXasperation
due to the acts of certain great cor
porations drive them into drastic ac-
ton, and | should oppose such action.
But the great corporations are them
selves to blame if by their opposition
to what is legal and just they foster
the popular feeling which tells for
such drastic action.
Il believe that all corporations en-
gagged in interstate commerce should
be under the supervision of the ma
tional government"

ednt Roosevelt on his return trip from

Along the entire route rain fell heav-
lily, but the storm seemed to have lit

people to see the president and if pos
sible to hear him speak. During the
afternoon he made brief addresses
