Delegates with one-half a vote each

MAYNARD MAY WIN.
But Col. Cabel Says he Will Be the
Victor

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NORFOLK, Va. September 4.-The
democratic congressional primary election
in the second congressional district is pro-
ceeding today with light vote everywhere
in the district The weather is ideal, but
the lack of interest is keeping voters at
home, and in Norfolk city less then one
third of the total democratic voting
strength will be polled. 1t is practically the
same way all over the district. The fight
in Norfolk city is close between Represen-
tative H. L. Maynard and his opponent
Col. Geo. c. Cabell, and 1t is uncertain
which will carry the city. Norfolk
county Portsmouth, Nansemond and Isle
of Wight are giving Maynard majorities.
Cabell is carrying the counties of South
ampton and Princess Anne. The outlook is
that Maynard will carry the district by
1900, though Cabell is still claiming it by
from 800 to, 800 majority. The majority that
Maynard will receive depends largely on
the way Norfolk city goes

The guns were silent. The crowd on shore
watched with gasps of admiration.
From the bridge of the Maine a rocket
rushed into the sky. Then a broad shaft
of light shot upward.
In moment the broad streak inter-

every turret. every steel-clad hull stood out
in sharp relief The lights would then shift
in another direction, and the curtain be
drawn once more.
Finally the curtain was torn aside for
the last time The crowd on shore, on the

in the harbor took one long look at the
pride of the American navy, then the

CHICAGO. September 4.-Capt. George j.

Just returned from conference between
the interstate commerce commission and
railroad and shipping interests yesterday.
expresses the opinion that the operation of
the Hepburn regulating act will produce
an effect less percep,ble than did the old
interstate commirce law. He said the con-
ference was satisfactory to the railroad
men, who, while unsuccessful in the effort
to gain from the commission a specific
ruling or Interpretation Of any clause of
the new law, secured sufficient Information
TO enable them to proceed definitely in
complying with the spirit OF the statute.
1.-THE commission showed disposition to
be liberal in the exercise of such discre-
tionary powers as vested in that body
by the new law" said Capt. Grammer.
'The impression that prevails in some quar-
ters that the commission has the power to
interpret the entire law is incorrect. Only
In so far as the law affects the form and
manner Of posting tariffs and the form of
bookkeeping has the commission any dis

Investigating Harvester Company.

Topeka, Kan, September 4.-Investiga-
tions of the International Harvester Com
pany have been instituted by c. C. Cole
man, attorney general of Kansas. to deter
mine whether the concern is operating in
violation of the state antitrust laws. At
torney General Coleman stated last night
that in the district courts of Reno and
Shawnee counties today all of the imple-
ment dealers in Topeka and Hutchinson
would be subpoenaed to appear before Dis
trict Judges Dana and Gale and tell what
they know about the operations of the
company. Applications for subpoenaes pre-
pared by the attorney general allege that
secret arrangements and agreements exist
between dealers in various lines" The ap-
plication specifies that all contracts entered
into between any of the dealers and the In
ternational Harvester Company for the
years 1904, 1905 and 1906 be brought into

Fourteen Biologists Return to City Of
Mexico in Painful Condition.

CHICAGO, September "A dispatch to
the Inter Ocean fro mMexico City says:
With their bodies severely burned by the
fires of Mount Colima volcano. fourteen ad-
venturesome delegates to the international
congress of geologists. which meets in this
city this week. returned here yesterday.
The trip to the crater of the volcano was
a perilous one. 1t had never been accom-
plished before by any one, although several
attempts to scale the precipitous mountain
had been made.
The members of the party of mountain
climbers went about their work methodi-
cally. They established camps at different
points on the ascent and made a certain
amount of progress each day until the sum-
NIT was finally reached.
The volcano was pouring forth great vol
umes of smoke, but this did not deter the
explorers from advancing to the very edge
of the crater. A hot and sudden blast of
fire badly scorched the bodies of the men,
and they beat hurried retreat.
Those who comprised the party were A.
Hovey of New York, John E. Wolfe and
H. F. Cleland of Boston, H. W. Reid of
Baltimore, Rudolph Ruedman of Albany,
w. H. Weed of Washington. Frank M

HUNT FOR THOSE
THAT GOT LOOT
District Attorney Hard After
Realty Trust Conspirators.
MORE ARRESTS TO BE MADE
Sufficient Evidence of Criminality Has
Already Developed.
TOMORROW IS THE DAY SET
Other Alleged Criminals in the Great
Steal to Be Gathered in on
Wednesday.
MORE ARRESTS TO BE MADE
TOMORROW IS THE DAY SET

Several arrests are to be made
of men who were implicated in the
wreck of the Real Estate Trust
Company at Philadelphia. The
district attorney regards the case
as being one of such paramount i'm
portance that he has postponed the
ice trials.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, September A.
District Attorney Bell today continued his
investigation into the affairs of the Real
Estate Trust Company which failed last
week. He spent considerable time at the
offices of the company. questioning several
directors and a number of officers and en-
ployes.
The district attorney considers his present
investigation of such Importance that he
has decided on postponement of the trial
of the fourteen wholesale ice dealers who
were to have faced jury tomorrow
charged with conspiracy in raising the
price of ice. In announcing his decision 20
the court today Mr. Bell said:
Il am now making an investigation of
the affairs of the Real Estate Trust Com
p2ny. with a view of determining what
persons are criminally responsible for the
Iooting of the institution. l feel that in
the interest of justice l must give the eX-
animation my close personal and uninter-
rupted attention until l shall have made n
complete discovery of all the evidence of
crminality."
Sufficient evidence of criminality it has
developed. has been discovered by the dis
triet attorney to warrant the statement
that one or two and perhaps three arrests
will be made tomorrow. Affidavi,s upon
which the warrants will be issued, it is
said. will be made today.
Names Are Secret.
''I cannot mention any names at this
nme," said Mr.. Bell. II think in view of
what has developed. that the public can
pick out the men who may nave had 4
hand in the deals which brought about the
collapse of the bank. No man will get
away and every person, no matter what
his position may be, who is Implicated,
will be made to answer"
The declaration made by several directors
of the trust company that they would not
reimburse the depositors beyond the amount
for which they are legally liable as direc-
tors has caused keen disappointment to
hundreds of the institutions creditors. 1t
had been repeatedly stated that several of
the directors who are millionaires would
advance large sums to the company in 1r-
der to pay the depositors in full. Some of
the creditors have already engaged counsel
with a view of bringing suit for The full
amount.

NOT AFTER FUSION SUPPORT.
Real Reason for Secretary Edwards
Trip to PennsYlvania.

"Just as soon as can get away l will
go to Pennsylvania to look into the matter
of some of our democratic candidates" said
Mr.. Charles A. Edwards, secretary of the
democratic congressional committee, today
ut has been reported that 1 am going to
secure fusion support of some of these can
didates, but that is not the case. What l
propose to do is to see whether candidates
on the democratic ticket there propose to
act with the democrats in the House In
case the election gives us a majority. For
instance, Thorpp, in the Johnstown district.
has always been a republican, although he
has been nominated by the democrats and
Is on our ticket. The question that arises
is, in case we win by small majority, will
he vote with US to organize the House. We
want to know whether such a man will be
with us or not. If not his election will be
of no service to our party.
