NEW YORK. Oct. 19.-Interest from
an Unexpected source was injected into
the political campaign today when
Charles F.. Murphy, the leader of Tam
many hall. appeared before the grand
jury in response to summons from.
the district attorneys office to tell
upon what he based his statement of
yesterday that the managers of the
independence league were attempting
to hold up" Tammany candidates
Mr.. Murphy had intima ted that Dem
ocratic nominees for congress, the sem
ate and assembly had been approached
with a proposition that their opponents
on the lea que ticket asked for a money
consideration to offset expenses al
ready incurred to withdraw.
From what little is known of the
proceedings before the grand jury it is
understood Mr.. Murphy was questioned
for some time and that as a result
of his testimony subpoenas were issued
for half a dozen other persons, includ-
ing Joseph E. Goulden, William Astor
Chanler and John Prendergast.
Later Mr.. Murphy had nothing to
add to his original charges. Represent
tatlves of the league who were seen
denied emphatically that those in au-
thority In the organization had been
guilty of practices attributed to them
by Murphy.
While the heads of the Republican
and Democratic and Independence
league tickets continued their campaign
up state today several meetings in
their interest were held in this city.
Chief interest from Republican
standpoint centered in the Manhattan
meeting, at which the principal ad
dress was made by Joseph G. Cannon,
speaker of the house Of representatives.

dldate for governor, started for Albany

FILlPIN0S WANT TO
BE IN THE MAJORITY
BY Associated Press.

MANILA, Oct. IA radical change
in the system of provincial government
is imminent if the Philippine commits
sion approves the recommendation of
the assembly of provincial governors
now in session at Manila. The recon-
mendation provides that another MEM
ber of the provincial board shall be
elected or appointed.
At present the treasurer and school
superintendent are appointed. AS they
must be Americans they constitute a
majority of the provincial boards. The
provincial governors want mem Der
elected to replace the school superinten-
dent, thus giving the Filipinos a ma
jority OF all the boards.
If Governor General Smith and the
commissioners approve the, recommen-
dation it will practically give the pro-
vinces complete autonomy. The ques-
tion Will probably be referred to Wash
ington.
The governors also unanimously con-
denim the road law, which requires that
work be done on the public roads in
lieu OF taxes. All fear that the law
will be made oppressive the same as
the old/Spanish law and that 1t will be
badly administered, being in the hands
of the municipal presidentes.
The provincial governors advised the
appointment OF A. w. Ferguson as a
member of the Philippine commission
and refuse to suggest Filipino for the

dict of a jury the Standard Oil COM
pany of Ohio is guilty of conspiracy
against trade in violation of the Val
entire antitrust law of Ohio.

The next step will be for the court
to impose the penalty.

of exceptions TO such rulings of Judge
Banker as are objected to, to the cir
cult court of the state. The appeal
from this court is to the supreme court
Of the state, by which tribunal there is
no doubt the issue will ultimately be
decided.
To the state the suit, the verdict and
the ultimate appeal Is important, par
ticularly because it initiates an entirely
new method of proceeding against allied
trade monopolies-that is, by informs-
ton and affidavit, instead of by grand
Jury indictment.
