Shaw is said to be ahead of Secretary
Taft and Vice President Fairbank, as
seekers after the Republican nominal
ton for President. Secretary Shaw
gotta big boom at the Bankers cOnven-
ton at Washington last week. He is
their ideal candidate because he made
a speech recently in which he advocat-
ed giving so cents more on every dol
lars worth of bonds deposited. A bank
now gets S25, 900 back in bank notes
when $4,000 worth of bonds are de-
posted. He advocates giving them
$37,5OO on the same deposit of bonds.
They could afford to give millions for

CIVIC RIGHTEOUSNESS.
BY Folk In Philadelphia


No person since the visit of VIM. J.
Bryan has been given such a large oya,
ton as was given Joseph w. Folk, Gov.
ernor OF Missouri, in Philadelphia or
Tuesday night, when he spoke to large
audiences. While he is a Democrat he
was called to address a non-partisan
meeting to aid Mayor Weaver's campaign
against the grafters in PHILADELPHIA,
Some OF his seed thoughts were as fol.
lows:
The most conspicuous fault of munich.
pal government in the United States to.
DAY is that they are governments by the
lew and not by the people.
The people are invincible if they can
be induced to join hands in patriotic en-
deavor. The average man does not an
preclate the duty he owes his citv. his
State and his country.
The patriotism of peace is often mora
necessary than the patriotism of war. for
history shows that where one Govern.
ment has been destroyed by wars, pestil-
enc n all other calamities combined.
corruption in times of peace has under.
mined a score.
The people can overthrow civic evils
whenever they wan to, and get just as
good government as they deserve, or as
bad as they permit it to become.

HOPE OF PEACE ABANDONED.
Hungarian Diet and Crown Still Sep
 arated By Differences.

Vienna, September 1l.-All hope of peace between the crown and the united op- position in the Hungarian diet seems to have come to an end. It Is understood that Emperor Francis Joseph who at first was apparently inclined to acquiesce in the plan of the Hungarian ministers for the granting of universal suffrage as one way of bringing about the defeat of the united opposition, has been induced to change his mind by the Austrian min isters. who feared the effect on political conditions in Austria if universal suf- {. age should be granted to the Hungarian people.
 It is not considered likely Baron Fe1er- varfs consultation with his colleagues will lead to any modification of the Hun garian ministerial programme, and 1t Is thought that at the audience tomorrow the Emperor will reject the idea of uni- yersal suffrage, and that the Fejervari cabinet will resign.
 A dispatch from Vienna, September said that General Baron Fejervari on that day had another fruitless audience with the Emperor following which he returned to Budapest to consult the mem bers of his cabinet. The dispatch said the premier was again to meet the Emperor Tuesday.

President Lynch Makes Statement Re-

Indianapolis, September 1.-The Inter- national Typographical Union commit tee and the committee of the Typothetae of this city failed to agree to an s-hour day to Commence January 1 at a con- ference late today. The local typograph- ical union has ordered all their members in this city to strike at once in every shop where the S-hour day is not in ef- feet One hundred and fifty men are n- volved here President James M Lynch of the International Typographical Union said tonight;
 "I have instructed unions in their re- spective cities to demand contracts i'm nediately for s-hour days to commence January 1. Wherever the demand for the S-hour to commence January l is refused, they have been instructed to strike at once"
 Of the ten members of the local Typo thetae. one, W. D. Pratt. signed the agreement for one year to grant an S. hour day from beginning of January 1, 1906. He pleaded that business contracts made previously were the reason of his action. At the same time he expressed himself as in sympathy with the action taken by the local Typothetae. Late to- night MT. Pratt resigned his membership in the Typothetae.

Equitable President Tells Agents That Retrenchment Is the Order of the Day In the
 Society.

New York, September 11.-President Paul Morton outlined the policy of the new management of the Equitable Life Insurance society In an address which he delivered at Manhattan. beach toaay to 75o agents of the society, who came from different parts of the country.
 secretary-Vice President Gage E. Tar bell Third Vice President George T. Will son, Comptroller W. A. Day and other of ficers were in attendance. After briefly reviewing recent events in the Equitable, MT. Morton said:
 I am going to say a few words to you on your new administration. There will be no attempt to make 1t dazzlingly bril- liant. The efforts will be to make it hon. est. courageous and conservative. There will be the greatest consideration shown for the policy-holders, and at every turn their interests will be protected. All of the new directors are policy y-holders. Busi- ness-like methods will prevail. Investment will be of the highest character. The in stitution will not be run as an adjunct to any one or several banking houses. Every owner of securities will have a chance to deal with us, and our aim will be to buy the very best at the very low est prices. The cheaper the society can be properly administered the better we can invest our earnings, and the better showing we can make the easier will 1t be for our agents to sell our insurance. want to see the insurance business re- moved as far as possible from politics. believe in the property laws safeguard ing the sacred trusts of insurance, and I will cooperate in the enactment of any necessary laws with that end in view We shall all work to put the business of life insurance on the elevated plane 1t ought to occupy. The company will have an annual audit of Its affairs, and Insist upon this by unbiased and Independent accountant There will be no attempt to deceive anybody, not even ourselves.
 "Retrenchments are the order of the day in the Equitable. They already amount to over s6o0,O00 per year, which is equal to per cent on an investment of s12.Oo0OO0. They will amount to a much larger sum before we are through, and am sure that we will satisfy not only our own policy-holders and our own agents, but the many who will buy what we have to sell"

President o'Connell Defines the Bene- fits to the Employer of the
 "Union Shop"

Boston. September 11.-Seyeral hundred delegates from various parts of the Uni- ted States, Canada and Mexico were in this city today to attend the opening ses- sion of the eleventh biennial convention of the International Association of Ma chinists The delegates represent about 800 lodges
 President O'Connell in his annual ad- dress accredited the success of the or ganization to the splendid discipline pre- vailing throughout the country. He urged members to do everything possible to avoid trivial and unnecessary strikes. MT. o'Connell sail also:
 "The employers association is leaving no stone unturned to misrepresent the position of the trades unions relative to what is commonly known as the union shop We do not interfere with the rights of any individual mechanic to seek em- ployment where he will, but we do re- serve the right to say with whom we shall work. If we secure through our ef- forts better conditions of employment, we have a right to say that mechanics en- toying the results of our labors should contribute to the success of our organiza- ton in maintaining the improved con- ditions secured by us. If the machinists throughout our Jurisdiction would organ ize as they should, the open shop proposi- ton would rapidly disappear because the employer would quickly realize that the best mechanics, the most intelligent work men and the most industrious citizens could only be secured through the union."
 In strike benefits the grand lodge paid out sS75,6l7 The machinists membership is over 100000.

GRISCOM TELLS OF
 TOXIC CONDITIONS
REGENT RIOTS WERE IN PART CAUSED BY HOSTILITY TO THE RUSSIAN cHuRcH-cITY IS NOW QUIET.

Oyster Bay, September 11.-A definite resume of the conditions in Tokio is given in a cablegram from Minister Griscom to the Secretary of State, which was trans mitted today to President Roosevelt. Minister Griscom intimates there Is no anti-foreign or Christian sentiment in To- kio but points out that the recent riot ing was due to sporadic antagonism to the Russian church, and to some native Christians. MT. Griscoms cable. so far as 1t relates to the rioting In Tokio, and the causes which led up to it, is in exact accord with the statement made to the Associated Press yesterday by Baron Kanekc. The cahlegram follows.
 "Tokio, September 10 1905. "rhe violence of the few foreigners and the attacks on Christian churches re- ported in my previous teegrams should not be considered to indicate any general anti-foreign or anti Christian feeling. The former was quite incidental, and the lat ter due to sporadic antagonism to the Russian church and some native Chris tians. The mob offered to spare one American church if the minister could show an American flag. Unfortunately he could not. Newspapers have during many months raised popular expectation so high that there Is intense dissatisfaction with the terms of the peace reached. Sem timent among army, navy and nobility. however, Is understood to be more con- servative. Six newspapers have been sus- pended Martial law probably will con tlnue for some time thus assuring quiet Meanwhile the legation guard of twelve soldiers will continue.
