Logan, Ohio, February 23.-
notwithstanding statements COM
ing from most authentic sources
regarding the $4,000 deal at the
Eleventh District convention in
Lancaster, Wednesday, in which
John f. White, of this city, is al
legged to have participated, Mr..
White denies, but not specifically,
that any money changed hands
between the Grosvenor element
and himself,
The convention was not q half
dozen hours old before one of
White,s closest political lieuten-
ants made the statement in Lo-
gan barroom that eve are not
spending the old mans money and
intend keeping it," One day
previous to the convention no
concealment was made by
Mr.. Whites friends that they
had been offered money. That
was an open secret in political cir
cles in Logan, and when disbelief
was expressed evidence was offered
from the White followers that
such was a fact.
Mr.. White was asked the follow
ing questions to-day to which were
given evasive answers in every IN
stance. Did any one offer you
$4,000? Did any of the Grosven-
or adherents show you any money!
Was money offered any one for
you? Did you have any intima-
tion of such offer being madef
Was money left for you with any
one? Did any one approach you
on the subject of deal? TO all
of these interrogations the same
answer was given. II haye moth
ing to say" Mr.. White, however
said: "At convention great
many things happen which were
better forgotten for the good of
the ticket. If there was any at
tempt at bribery it did not succeed
as events show
"Had you made any promises to
the Grosvenor adherents?"
81 don't ca'e to answer that
question:
"Had the Grosvenor managers
any reasons to expect your support
at the Lancaster conyt ntion?"
cit is fact that the Grosvenor
people expected the support of the
Hooking County delegation. AS
to their reasons for that expecta-
ton | do not know. They eyi-
IDENTIFY did not have or they wonld
have received such support"
"Was there any truth that 90
500 bills were left in an envelope
at certain place to be delivered
to you at your call =
"There is absolutely no truth in
the story. What has been said in
the papers regarding this transac-
ton was not authorized by me in
any way"
One of Mr.. Whites delegates
from this county to the Lancaster
convention alleges that 20 800
bills were placed in an envelope
and left at certain place to be
called for by Mr.. White.-En-

Word from Chilean Legation.


 London, Aug 2O-The Chilean le- gatiOn today received cable mess- age from Santiago, dated yesterday, reading as follows:
 "On the evening of August 1G a se- we're earthquake was felt between Valparaiso and Talca. The loss of life was not very great. The damage to property was considerable at Val 1parais0 but was less at Santiago. Public order has ben entirely main tained.
 The authorities and private persons are succoring the distressed people. The foreign legations are lending aid. The north has been wholly unaffected by the earthquake"
 Private cable messages received by members of the Chilean legation tend to show that Valparaiso did not suffer as much as was at first SUD- posed. The heaviest damage was confined to the eastern section of the town, which included the poorer resi- dental district. The port andship- ping at Valparaiso apparently escaped damage.
 liverpool firm to day received the following despatch from Santiago:
 T do not think that there has been any loss of life or personal injuries among the English residents at Val paraiso. The police arrangement there are thoroughly efficient. Ar engagements are in fair progress to supply food 10 the needy, The fires and shocks are apparently over."

SUBWAY COOLER.
Cool Attachment Not Busy but the
 Air Blast Worked Well.

New York, Aug 2O.-The subway was cool yesterday. That is to say, from 3:31 p. m. to 8:35 D. m., ex- actly. During that time the big new patent blower on the extreme west ern downtown platform of the Brook lyn bridge station got tryout. Those in charge of the job say that 1t was a big success and that nothing is now in the way of cooling the tun- nel.
 The gladstone news repeated to several stout persons who had to be in the subway yesterday was received with scorn. They did not seem inter- ested in hearing how the air Is sucked down from an opening in the subway roof by the action of blades like those on sidewheel steamer in the blower.
 Once in. this air Is gathered in huge galvanized iron chamber and forced through long, rambling gall vaniyed iron chute. At intervals in the fhute, which meanders along the ceiling ot the station, there are large holeb ,cut,s.e 4
 The stout persons did not seem to think 1t anything wonderful that when the blower started the pres- sure of air was so great that the iron chute rattled like the teeth of a West Indian in the ordinary tempera- ture of the subway.
 The system Is not yet complete. There is an ammonia plant for mak- ing ice cold the air that is distrib- uted. and that Is not yet in opera tion. That's why the stout persons were not much interested.

Ecuador.. Tarin schedule.

Washington. Aug 20.-Ecuador has proclaimed a new tariff schedule which has just reached the state de- partment and will become effective November |. The schedule makes many changes in the existing tariff. It provides for a complete re-classi- fication and makes reductions on some classes of goods sent from the United States to Ecuador, but makes no marked alterations on the chief exports from this country to Ecua- dor. A curious feature of the new tarif act in Ecuador Is that it per- mits cabinet members to enjoy ex- emption from duty on goods they i'm port for their own use 1t has not formerly been the custom to grant exemptions to cabinet ministers in Ecuador and the practice does not obtain in other Latin-American coun- tries.

SONS OF HERMAN
 NNs Flag of German Federation Floats CaiIy at New Haven
 To-Day
MANY CITIES REPRESENTED

New Haven, Aug 20.-The flag of
 the German Federation was much in
 evidence to-day in honor of the gath ering here of the lodges of the Sons
 of Herman of the state to celebrate with two days outing the golden jubilee of the national lodge. Morn
 ing trains brought into the city large delegations of German clubs who
 have affiliation with the Sons of Her.
 man and many of these were in uni
 form as they took part in the morn
 ing parade. The program for to-day
 included a parade in Ine city and a
 picnic at Lion park in West Haven, at which there was reproduction of
 the historic battle of Teutoburger
 Woods In which the Teutons and Ro- mans met. At its conclusion the Ger man battle song will be sung. In con- formity to written history the Tue- tons under Herman will defeat the Romans, thereby s!gnifying the free dom of the former from Romanic rule.
 The parade was formed on the green with the head of the column at city hall. The marshal was Henry Weidemann of this city and his mounted stan was made up of rep resentatives from several lodges. In line were lodges from New London, Hartford, South Norwalk, New Brit ain, Torrington, Bridgeport, Nor wich, Westport, Portchester, N. Y., Stamford, Middletown, Ansonia, Sey- mour, Waterbury, Meriden and this city. Members of the Daughters of Herman lodges were in carriages and the line stretched out for fully half mile. Probably there were 800 men in line, many of them carrying Chi nese parasols. The Daughters of Her. man wore white gowns and carried German and American flags. Near the head of the column mounted was Louis Rempfer dressed to represent Herman, and immediately following was guard of Teutons in antique garb carrying spears and shields. and behind them a Roman legion in armor. There were also two floats, on one of which were twenty-six young girls who represented the suite of Thusnelda, character taken by Mrs Emelie Lehman, and another in which the young women were in white. The Ansonia delegation rode in fanciful decorated barge. The several bands played favorite Ger man airs and here and there along the line of parade cheers were given by the spectators. Lion park, where the picnic was held, Is on Campbell avenue. Here the exercises were open ed at noon with salute.

BUCKINGHAM MUSIC HALL.
Opening and Dedication Will Take
 Place on October 2.

The new music hall in the Buck ingham building, erected by J. H. Whittemore and presented to the Hospital association, will be formal ly opened and dedicated by music festival of unusual proportions on Tuesday, October 2.
 Victor Herbert, Americas fore most conductor and composer, with his full symphony orchestra, has been engaged for two great concerts, and orchestra matinee at 2:30 o'clock and concert of dedication at S:15 in the eveR4ng.
 The committee is endeavoring to secure as soloists two of the worlds greatest vocalists, namely, Madame Louise Homer, contralto, and Signor Campanari. baritone. both members of Conried's Metropolitan opera con- pany. Should they be unavailable, equally eminent soloists will be en- gagged. At the evening concert Mir Herbert and his famous orchestra will be assisted by Waterbury's splen- did chorus of 150 selected voices, this feature requiring the use of the great pipe organ in accompaniment, as we'll as the orchestra. It is need less to dilate on Victor Herbert's genius. He and his orchestra are too we'll known to the public at large, but as this is their first joint visit to Waterbury there will doubtless be a great outpouring of Mir Herbert's ad- mirers to give him a warm welcome. No better attraction could be secured for such an important occasion as Is the opening and dedication of this magnificent hall.
 The general committee having the mater in charge comprise the follow ing: Albert J. Blakesley. chairman: Harris s. Bartlett. Edward w. Beach, George H. Benham. John l.. Bonn, George E. Boyd. Charles B. Church i'll. Isaac B. Clarke, Harry l.. Cooke, Naugatuck, Colonel Arthur M. Dick inson, Jacob Kaiser. Isaac P. Kellogg, William P. Lamb. Robert P. Lewis, William H. Miner. Charles F. Mitch ell, William D. Pierson, R. A. Las lett Smith William ]. Stanley. Arthur l.. Towne, Milton Well. Hans Saro, Charles E. Farnham and Arthur H. Langley.
