In BEHALF OF ALBERS
INDIANLANs APPEAR AT THE
STATE DEPARTMENT..

Interest In the case OF William Albers.
the American In Nicaragua wle Is under
sentence OF Imprisonment for resisting
legal process. was revived today by the
! appearance at the State Department of
several persons who have figured In that
case. First there was Consul Donaldson.
whose exequatnr was withdra wn because
of his energetic Intervention in behalf of
Afbers Mr.. Donaldson Is seeking to have
the State Department return him to Ma
nagua, II only for a short time, in order to
yindicate himself. He feels that, regard
less of anything that has been said touch
ing Albers' character, he simply fulfilled
his duty as consul in endeavoring to secure
speedy trial for an American citizen.
There Is some reason to believe that the
Nicaraguan government may be induced to
take that view, because the consul's reia-
tons with the principal officials. from the
ingly friendly before the AIbers incident
occurred. In any case Mr.. Donaldson
future will be provided for by the State De-
partment. and IL he does not return to Man
aqua he Will Re given another consulate.
Mr.. ]. w. Cregar secretary and treasurer
of the Port Limon Company. whose agent
Albers wass also called to see whether any
thing had been done In the case. He learned
that Albers had been admitted to ball and
was at large pending action upon his appeal
to the court of cessation from the sentence
Of the lower court; It does not appear that
Mr.. Cregar is making any special effort in
Albers behalf at this time.
Two men from Indiana also appeared at
the State Department today, however, in
connection with that case. and showed :,
very lively interest In it. They were Daniel
l.. Speicher and p. j. Helm. who said that
they were heavy stockholders In the Port
Lymon Company and wanted to see that
Albers had Justice They had letters Of in
PRODUCTION from the governor, attorney gen.
eral and other state officers of Indiana to
the State Department people.
In view of the fact that Albers Is not now
in confinement. and that consequently there
Is no urgency in the treatment of his case,
the State Department is not specially press
ing It, but has given Instructions that the
proceedings In the Nicaraguan courts be re-
ported to It through its own agents.

RAIsIN INSURANCE HAZARDOUS.
California Growers Disturbed Over
Withdrawal of Protection.

FRESNO. Cal, November 2.-The mana
ger of the California Raisin Growers Com
pany received notice yesterday from differ
ent insurance companies Withdrawing their
insurance from the packing houses and
fruit now owned by the association. Ra sin
insurance Is regarded as extra hazardous
and is diveded among several hundred COM
panies for that reason.
On October IL one company withdrew but
no particular notice was taken at the time
Since then there has been rumors that the
hazard considered greater than the
companies would carry and now what may
be a general movement to withdraw insur-
ance has begun.
No reason is given. but it is supposed
that the burning of one packing house in
Selma, the report of the different attempts
to fire another in this city, all had their eff
feet on the underwriters. Whether re-
insurance can be obtained by the associa-
ton is not yet known

this county. and the ballots are plainly
marked TO show the political party to

They can be marked very readily
A Large Majority.
The largest democratic majority this
county has given In recent years was when
Il accorded Gov. jackson a majority of 1.116
when he ran for governor in 1888. This
being his home, his popularity was shown
I'm the large vote given him. The demo-
cratic ma jorties have since ranged from 400
to 40. although In some cases republican
candidates have pulled the majority lower
than that.
Conservative democrats estimate that the
county ticket will be elected by a ajority
OF $50 but they admit that there are eie-
ments of doubt about the vote on the
amendment. There is a very general Idea
that the amendment will poll from 100 TO
800 votes less than the local and general
ticket. This loss of votes for the amend
ment is feared because of the attitude or
The democrats In the county who cannot
read or write, and who are not pleased
with the prospect of allowing the judges of
elections to determine whether they under
stand the constitution of the state. The
number OF whites in this county who are
illiterate is shown by the fact that the VIII
son law was not made to apply here.
1t is plain that IL the condition OF this
county applies to other counties of the East
ern Shore it will not be possible to secure n
sufficient vote for the amendment to over
come the vote against IL In Baltimore and
:n the northern tier of counties of the state.
Democrats here who are fully aware of the
failure of the Poe amendment to attract the
support of the white voters, and for that
reason feel that large majority in this
county for the amendment is not to be
looked for. much encouraged by the
hopeful reports that constantly come from
Chairman Nandiver and the democratic
state headquarters. They cannot under
stand what the ground is for this conf
dence. but they are inclined to believe that
IT is based on the broader view that the
committee is able to have of the situation
over the entire state. and they are conse-
quently hopeful for party success.

Crawford's Second Trial.

The second trial Of William G. Crawford,
Indicted with August w. Machen and
George e. Lorenz for conspiracy to defraud
the United States in connection with the
sale of letter-carrers' satchels and straps
to the Post Office Department, was this
afternoon set for trial the 9th instant In
Criminal Court No. /.
The first trial of Crawford, last spring,
the result being the inability of the jury to
reach verdict consumed several weeks
The second trial Is expected to be much
shorter, due to the fact that the prosecu-
ton and the defense will agree regarding a
large amount of the evidence prior to trial
The crawford case, 1t is thought, will be
the only Post Office Department hearing
prior to Christmas.

THE SITUATION IN OHIO
LOOKS LIKE HERRICK WILL GET
DEMOCRATIC VOTES.


Special Dispatch to The Star.
COLUMBUS. Ohio. November Am edr-
torial In the Cincinnati Enquirer, the lead
ing democratic newspaper in the state, has
for the first time shaken the democrats or
the state in this campaign. In Importance
as to effect in the campaign it is equal TO
the speech of Secretary Taft attacking Boss
George B. Cox, or the refusal of Repre-
sentative Webber of the 14th district to
speak or even vote for Gov. Herrick unless
he will publicly repudiate Cox and disayow
the State Liquor League, which is working
for his election.
The Enquirer editorial is in line with that
which appeared in it's columns soon after
the election of 1904. in which it vigorously
announced that the democrats should not
count upon the support of the Enquirer IN
the future campaigns unless they ceased TO
stand for what the Enquirer regarded as
principles of populism and socialism, by
which 1t referred to public ownership OF
public utilities and kindred propositions ad-
vocated BY Tom l. Johnson.
The Enquirer editorial is. in part:
Zone of the proverbial mistakes OF the
democracy which has frequently inflated
the merriment of the republicans has been
the failure to line up the old guard and
dependence on converts.
A Mistake limited.
Has SUCH mistake peen mace tnlS
year?
1.-The democratic state convention. held
in Columbus in the latter part of June OF
this year, embraces a number of para
graphs that would be strangers in a Jefrer-
son. Jackson or even a Grover Cleveland
platform Indeed. they were not admitted
to the catechism upon which William Jen-
nings Bryan took half or more of the vote
of the country in 1896. In all candor, they
would present more homelike appearance
in populistic, socialistic or fad profess
sion of faith. They are unGuestionably OBJ
noxious to thousands upon thousands of
what may be respectfully called the old
line democrats. men who IL they vote the
regular ticket this year. must hold their
noses and dissipate the atmosphere in their
immediate vicinity by waving their ban
dana handkerchiefs.''
Many democrats here believe that this
means that the Bernard democrats in Ham
ilton county will support Herrick. and that
the word has been passed out to them that
Pattison is to be cleaned up" In the COM
ing election there. just as ingalls, was
cleaned up.

No Official Confirmation.

The State Department has SO far received
no official notice of the reported killing Of
five American missionaries at Lienchow In
China. 1t Is believed that the nearest
United States consul likely TO hear of that
tragedy Is at Canton, about a weeks jour-
ney distant from the place where the muir
der occurred. The officials have no Doubt
that the Chinese government will do every
thing that Is proper and necessary to meet
the demands of justice If the facts turn out
to be as represented. The Chinese minister
was among Secretary Roots callers today.

II is expected that President and Mrs

for the increased crowds that thronged the

that IL the President and Mrs. Roosevelt do

see the flower named In honor OF the wife
of the chief executive. their visit will be
made late this afternoon.

Reuben Burton Price, who claims to have
been a deserter from the United States
navy put in an appearance at the naval
recruiting depot in the federal building a
few days ago and wanted to surrender
himself. He came back second time with
the same story and an inquiry was made
of the naval department II a person of his
description had at any time taken French
leave. The information came back that
his surrender might be accepted. It being
shown he had enlisted as an officers serv-
ant, being a colored man. However. since
then Burton probably changed his mind
and evidently prefers his continued liberty,

in Omaha. Some are surprised he should
throw up a position to which he had just
been reelected for two years which pays

others insist it is his desire to get into city
work through this means
The, place will be filled by the Board Of
County Commissioners. The only announced
candidate for the place so far is Principal
Speedie of the Benson schools. He has
held the position at Benson for five years
and before that was for three years super
intendent of Sarpy county schools. There
are other candidates, in a tentative sense.
but as they do not look FOR the appoint
ment to be made before the beginning Of

meantime Mrs. Lois ]. Caldwell, Superin-
tendent Bodwells deputy, is likely to be al
lowed to conduct the ONCE, as she knows

WEST LEAVENwoRTH WANTS
Improvement Club Puts in some Time
Debating Needs OF the
District.

The West Leavenworth Street Improve
ment club was out in big force Friday
night and went over lots Of business. CoUn-
cilmen Dyball and Huntington received ...,
thanks Of the club for services IN behalf
Of the district.
Among other matters talked over was the
boulevard question. and the effort to secure
lake at the Harvey street crossing of the
boulevard, and another at Thirty-nfth and
Leavenworth streets Sewer matters also
came in for a good share Of talk, and
Councilman Dyball gave assurances that
he would endeavor to secure larger
sewer and culvert at Forty-eighth and
Leavenworth streets. The committee on
curbing and guttering reported that it had
secured the necessary majority Of sigma
lures for curbing and guttering Leaven-
worth street from Thirty-seventh to For
tieth streets, and a motion prevailed that
the council be petitioned to have the inn
provement made.
Assurances were received from Couucil-
man Dyball that the street railway COM
pany is about to put on an evening and
morning through street car service, with
standard cars, from Forty-eighth street
down town on Leavenworth for the ac-
commodation OF the people Of the district
during the rush hours.
The question Of the Improvement of Elm
wood park was talked over, and it was
generally determined to get busy and see
II the park board could do something for
that park. Messrs. Fearn, Resick Faux
ner, Ellers and Hoover were appointed a
committee to see to the matter.
A committee was appointed to see the
county commissioners to see II the cinders
from the County hospital could not be
utilized for the improvement Of Fortieth
and Forty-eighth streets.
1t was stated that the street railway
company was putting in different quality
and size of brick between their tracks than
those which were being used to pave Leav-
enworth street, and Councilman Dyball
said that he would look into the matter.
Considerable other miscellaneous business
was transacted. after which the club ad-
journed until Friday evening, December 1.
