New York, April 3.-The state insur,

President James H. Hyde and other
officials of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance society. The inquiry probably

practical control of the company.
1t was decaTed last last night that
Alexander and his supporters would
not concur in the policy holders plan,

free to meet any new situation and
continue their endeavors to make

WARM CAMPAIGN AT CHICAGO ENDS
Opposing Candidates Both Seek
Municipal Ownership of
Street Railways.

Chicago. April 3.-One of the most
spirited political contests of recent
years was wound up in Chicago today.
Municipal ownership of street rail-
ways has been the issue. Leaders of
the opposing sides are the candidates
who will be voted upon tomorrow for
the mayoralty of the city. John NJ.
Harlan, son of Chief Justice Harlan,
of the United States supreme court is
the republican candidate.
Judge Edward F. Dunno, of the cir
cult court, is the democratic nominee.
Both candidates stand pledged for mu-
nicipal ownership but by different
methods.
Others In Field.
Besides Harlan aid Dunno, Oliver
w. Stewart. the prohibitionist, and
John Collins. socialist. are active can
didates for mayor Republican mana
gers claim the election of Harlan by
20 900 plurality. Democrats seem con
fident Dunno will have anywhere from
81. 200 to $4,000 plurality.
Small Vote Expected.
1t is not thought likely the socialist:
will poll more than 10000. one-fifth o
their vote last November. No est
mate is made as to the prohibition
! faction.

CuIIom's Return Opens Battle for
Election to Senate in
1897.
SWINGS FEDERAL PATRONAGE
Yates Lining Up State, County and
City Observation-Disclosures
is Passive.

Springfield, ILL.,, April 3.-The pres.
ence of Senator Cullom in Springfield
lately has given the first real impetus
to the United States senatorial contest
of 1907. Senator Culloms visitors and
movements have been closely watched
by Yates and Hamlin scouts and many
southern Illinois politicians have in
terviewed the veteran senator with ref
erence to federal appointments.
Senator CullOm has been exceeding
ly active since his return from Wash
ington and has vigorous personal APP
pearance has assured his friends of a
spirited campaign two years hence.
Mr.. Cullom is rapidly organizing the
southern part of the state and his
friends as well as his critics declare
he has lost none of his pristine gener-
alship.
Yates Plans His Campaign.
Mr.. Yates senatorial campaign is
being carefully organized and cam
paign funds are being collected from
state employees. AS yet there seems
to be no open breach between Gov
Deneen and his predecessor. All Yates
appointments made from the time of
adjournment of the forty-third general
assembly in May, 1908, and the inaug-
uration of Gov. Deneen, subject to con-
firmation by the senate, are hung up
in that body. They were referred to
a subcommittee of the senate, but will
be disposed of as Gov. Deneen directs.
Although it is common knowledge
that Mr.. Yates has been assessing
ly has taken no action in the matter.
1t is assumed, however. that the fur
will fly as soon as the legislature adj
tourns. Gov. Deneen, according to
some of his friends, is playing a wait
ing game and is tolerating conditions
of which he does not approve in order
to promote certain legislative reforms
for the furtherance of which he needs
the support of Yates men in the legis-
lature.
Mr.. Deneen is pledged to primary
election, Chicago charter and civil ser
vice reforms, and it is unlikely he will
devote much time to machine politics
until the legislature has adjourned.
In Separate Fields
Meantime, he is ostensibly on friend
ly terms with all senatorial candidates
Senator Cullom is dealing in federS
patronage and therefore practically
has a clear field. Mr. Yates and for
mer Attorney General Hamlin are
seeking to line up county and city pat
ronage throughout the state, but until
Gov. Deneen takes the initiative it is
unlikely there will be lineup on Unit
ed States senator.
This explains the presence in this
city of Billy Baker, Jim McGarvcy and

''BACK To PEOPLE"
Subject of Address by w. J. Bryan
Before Iowa Demo-
Gratis.
PARTY'S PRINCIPLES PREVAIL
When People Decide Again to Rule
1t Will Again BE Returned
to Power.

Des Moines, April Back to the
People," was the subject of William
J. Bryan's address Saturday night at
the Jefferson banquet of Iowa demo
Gratis. Back to the people," he said,
lis a phrase that best describes the
tendency manifesting itself in the ma
ton and in most states. For period
of years the tendency was toward
corporate domination, and the voice
of the people grew weaker and weak
er in comparison with the influence
of money But the tide has changed,
and we see evidence everywhere of
a determination on the part of the
masses to assert themselves in the
management of parties and the con-
duct of the government.
Cites Primary Law.
In support of these statements
Bryan cited the agitation in favor OF
primary law in Iowa, Wisconsin,
Illinois, Minnesota and elswhere. He
cited further the recent action of the
republican legislature in Kansas defy
ing the Standard Oil company and the
general agitation in favor of govern
ment of regulation and of railroad
rates, and of the step taken by con-
gress to this end. He declared that
democratic position is being vindicat-
ed and said the democrats face the fu-
ture with hope and courage.
Organize Iowa Club
The banquet was attended by demo
Gratis from all over the state, and at a
meeting they organized the Iowa Dem
ocratic club which will be extended in
to every county in the state This ac-
ton is taken to mean that radical dem
ocrats will secure controy of the party
and its affairs. The officers of the
state club are:
President-H. c. Evans. Des MOines.
