NOT GUILTY, SAYS HARRY
THAN, GOTHAM MURDERER
YALE TAKES TWO RACES
DEFEATS HARVARD in FRESH.
MEN AND VARSITY FOUR
DARED CONTESTS.

New London, Conn, June 29.--It
was like a chapter out of the story of
Yale's rowing history to see her de-
feat Harvard in the freshmen and
varsity four-oared races on the
Thames, the former being a splendid
struggle and the other a walkaway
win
Harvard men believe, however, that
the freshmen race would have been
theirs had not Ellis at bow dropped
his oars through exhaustion when the
finish was at hand The crimson
crew finished with seven oars. Up
to this time the form of both crews
had been fine in every particular, but
the boys with the blue cars had the
speed and the mettle Harvard rowed
gamely, but it was not in them to win
this year despite the hopes of her
men.
The races were rowed under fine
conditions except that the day was
very warm after cool early morning.
The wind was light, the river smooth
and the water favorable to the crews,
as both races were up stream with the
tide.
. Harvard won the varsity eight
cared race. -,

WISCONSIN DEMOCRATS FAVOR
HIS NOMINATION FOR THE
PRESIDENCY IN 1908.
MAIN PLAAks in The PLATFORM
go :;-E.e
DEMAND ENFORCEMENT OF ANTI
TRUST LAWS AND DECLARE
FOR TARIFF REVISION.

Milwaukee, June 29.-The platform
adopted by the Democratic state con-
vention strongly endorses William
Jennings Bryan as the Democratic
candidate for president in 1908.
Among other things the platform de-
mands enforcement of the statutes
against all trusts, combinations and
monopolies; favors revision Of the
present tariff; the election of United
States senators by direct vote and
government control and regulation of
all public service corporations. On
state matters the report favors law
comforting upon municipalities power
to regulate public service corpora
tions; favors 2 cents per mile maxi
mum passenger railroad rate; taxation
on the ad valorem basis and amend
ments to the primary election law.
The plank endorsing Bryan follows:
I'VE regard with just pride and ad-
miration the typical American who
has been journeying in foreign lands
the past year and, although only a
private citizen, with none of the allure
ments of place or. power about him,
has been accorded distinguished con-
sideration and attention wherever he
has gone, solely because his course in
public and private life alike has shown
him to be a patriotic citizen, wise
and farseeing statesman and a thor
oughly honest and upright man, in
whom the people can safely repose
their utmost confidence. We there
fore declare that we are heartily in
favor of that typical American, Will
lam Jennings Bryan, as the Demo
cratic candidate for president in 1908
and we pledge our united efforts to
secure his nomination &C.
When the report of the committee
was. first read to the convention the
resolution referring to William J,
Bryan caused ,tumult of applause,
which lasted about three minutes.
Three cheers and a tiger for Bryan
were given repeatedly.

New York, June 29.-Sinister re-
ports have reached the police Of the
life and conduct of Stanford White
during period Of years past. They
Indicate that the noted architect and
elubman stopped to strange and un-
usual practices. They spell a story
which might better have occurred in
the Neuronian period of the: Roman
empire. ..g...< ...s -,
The police know beyond any shadow
of doubt that White had paid ardent
devotion to at least a score of beau
tiful girls still in their early teens;
that he had clothed them in costly
raiment, had shoWered Jewels and
money upon them with prodigality
that stopped at nothing for the accom-
plishment of the mans purpose. The
police declare that Stanford White
knew these maidens for no good pur-
pose that he and several other noted
men have made a practice for years of
devoting hours of every day and i'm
mense sums for the sinister gratlfica-
tion of their desires.

ther action, the conferees being un-

The senate conferees have con-

preferred that an agreement should
be reached whereby the packers
would be compelled to pay the cost of

ever, that the conferees exercise their
Judgment in regard to these points.
