SPRINGFIELD, Ohio. September Cat
the convention of the republicans Of High
land county, where Senator Joseph B.
Foraker was born and raised. and where
he received the sobriquet of Little
Breeches," a presidential boom for him
was started. In the resolutions adopted he
is urged as the logical successor of Roose-
welt. The section OF the resolutions re-
ferring to Senator Foraker is as follows:
"As republicans of Highland county. the
birthplace of Ohio's senior senator, Joseph
B. Foraker, We feel an especial pride in
the eminent position he occupies among
the leading statesmen of our country; we
admire his courage in always following his
conscientious conviction of duty, and in
never swerving therefrom for considera-
tions Of expediency. He has served the
state of Ohio with sterling fidelity and
commanding ability as governor and
United States senator, and If placed in a
higher position we know he will conduct
the administration Of government in a
wise, conservative and patriotic manner
and on principles thoroughly in accord
with the teachings of the republican party,
and. therefore, we. the representatives Of
one of the counties OF our state, propose
as Ohio's candidate for President in 1908
the distinguished son of Ohio, our own
senator, Joseph B. Foraker"

tioning of District Attorney Bell. The
cashier of the wrecked concern told of how
he had gone time and again to Nipple with
warnings that the cash supply was peri
lously low because of the enormous over
drafts of Nipple and Segal. which on occa-
sions he said reached 100000; of how Hip
pie would fill out blank note, signed by
Segal, indorse 1t, and then order the cashier
to place 1t with and ledger it as part of the
cash supply of the bank, and how he had
appealed in vain to Nipple, to William F.
North, the treasurer, and to N. s. Colling-
wood. the assistant treasurer, when checks
amounting up into the hundreds of thou
sands, signed by Segal, had come in even
when his account had already been far over
drawn. These men had always said the
drafts must be honored and paid, the CASH
ier testified
Receiver Earle also went on the stand,
. He told of an interview with William F.
North, who with Segal and Collingswood,
was arrested yesterday, in which the treas
urer said that for years he had known the
crooked side of President Hipples double
life, and admitted that though the condition
of the bank was ''knawing anxiety wit h
him at all times, yet he had never breathed
word of warning to the directors nor any
one outside the doors of the bank.
In conclusion Receiver Earle identified a
note written by Nipple early in the morn
ing of the day he ended his life in his home
In Bryn Mawr. 1t was brief line scrawled
In an unsteady hand on an envelope and
were his very last words 1t read:
There is no one to blame but myself.
Segal got all the money He fooled me-
This, Mr. Earle said was brought to him
by young Wharton Nipple, the defaulter's s
son, soon after the news came out that
President Nipple was in fact a suicide.

machines.
In Chicago and Milwaukee, where the
strike of the molders also is in progress it
was asserted that 1900 machines will be

proves true it is figured by employers that
they will have need for less than half of
