GOVERNOR GLENN REFUSES
North Cardinals Prohibition Governor
Makes it Clear That He is Not Our
Kind of Prohibitionist

RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA, December 13-
Especial correspondence)- is learned here to-
day that recently Gov. R. B. Glenn, whose views
upon the liquor question are very pronounced
and who is commonly spoken of as "Frohibi-
tlonlst' was approached by leading members of
the Prohibition party, of whom, at least, are
members of the national committee, with prop
ostion looking to his acceptance of the Prohibi-
ton party's nomination for President next year
1t is said that the gentlemen in question as
sured Governor Glenn that, while they were not
acting with official sanction and could not defin-
itely promise him the nomination. they believed
that they were speaking the views of large wing
of the party when they said that it would be
looked upon as highly desirable for the Prohibi-
tlonists to nominate outside of their own
party ranks at the Columbus convention, and es-
pecially a southern Democrat.
1t can be definitely stated, upon the very best
information, that Governor Glenn replied to these
gentlemen to the effect that he does not believe
in the Prohibition party; that he believes it has
been great mistake and that the fight must be
fought out in the old parties that he is Demo-
crat and will remain Democrat.

The National Prohibitionist, published in Chi
cago, made its initial appearance November 49,
The new paper, which will represent the Prohibi-
ton party, is the result of a consolidation of The
Defender of New York, VIM. P. F. FERGUSON,
editor, and The Home Defender of Chicago,
EDWARD E. BLAKE, editor. The retention of both
editors on the staff of The National Prohibition
aSt is sufficient guarantee of it's excellence The
Prohibition national committee, which met in
Chicago November 20, cordially ndorsed the
new paper.
II. B. CyanfU in the Baptist Standard
1t will be remembered that the national ex-
ecutive committee of the Prohibition party at one
time had in mind the establishment of national
Prohibition party paper. In advance of all things
else in the movement, | was asked to take the
editorship of the prospective national journal.
In view of important developments in Prohibition
party work. the plan for the establishment of this
national Prohibition party weekly has been with
drawn, and the entire strength of the Prohibition
party is to be concentrated on The National Pro-
hibitioniSt which is published at 81 Washing
ton street, Chicago This publication is the result
of a consolidation of number of Prohibition
papers, and its initial issue under the new name
and auspices, appeared November 49, 1t is in
very able hands, and the present arrangement is
to my thinking the best that American Prohib-
tionists could have made.

GOVERNMENT BREAKS LAW
Navy Department Uses Foreign Yes
sells, Which Are Barred to
Private Citizens.

Washington, Oct. IA conference was
held at the navy department today be-
tween Secretary Metcalf, Commissioner
of Navigation Chamberlain and the solic-
itor of. the department of commerce and
labor, regarding the status of the British
tramp steamer Netherlee. which took a
cargo of coal for the navy department to
the Bremerton navy yard and was held
up there for tonnage dues and light taxes
AdV1ces received at the department to-
day were that the vessel is diScharging
her cargo. thorough search was made
or the records today to ascertain whether
any immunity from these charges had
been promised to the owners or agents of
the vessels, Secretary Metcalf declaring
that so far as he was aware none had
been made. The contention of the naval
officials is that the old law imposing tom
mage and light dues was superseded by
the statute which forfeits to the govern
ment cargoes carried by foreign vessels
in the American coastwise trade in viola
ton of the laws. The attorney general
in his recent opinion replied in the mega
tive when asked by Secretary Metcalf
whether the prohibition contained in the
law extended to merchandise which con-
stitutes property owned by the gov
eminent
This being the case and the cargo of the
vessel belonging to the navy, the officials
of the latter department fail TO see any
reason for the detention of the vessel. a
dozen or more other foreign vessels char
tered by the equipment bureau to carry
coal to the Pacific coast will be affected
by the final disposition of the present
case.

Hunting Bulletin.

Stamboul La, Oct 7.-Assistant Secre-
tary Latta started out early today to find
the president at his camp in the will

not returned. 1t is presumed that when
he arrived at the camp the president was
out on his hunt and that Secretary Lat

Except that the temperature is too hu-
mid to render physical exercise enjoyable,
the president is having favorable weather
Previous TO his arrival there had been no
rain for weeks and the conditions were
most unfavorable for hunting, the break
Ing or the dry twigs giving warning to
the game of the approach of its foe and
the hard surface being very trying on the

the dogs the president is using We're SO

they came neal being unfit for his use
The presidents proverbial good luck was
however, with him in this as in other
matters. A gentle rain was falling when
he arrived at STEAMBOAT on Sunday and
there have been two or three showers
since. None of them has been of great
duration. but they have well served the
purpose of putting the forest in the best
possible condition for both man and beast
in stalking game. True, the atmosphere
is steaming hot between showers but the
president is reported to be showing him
self capable of rising quite superior to
this condition. Indeed, so far neither
rain nor heat has been permitted to in
terfere with his sport. The camp ground
is well located and, while on low land
is not in a swamp. the site being COM

OUTRAGES AT ODESSA.
Mourning Hebrews in Cemetery
Fired Upon by Mob

Odessa, Oct THE United Unionists of
Odessa continued today their attacks and
0utrages on Jews. They began by sur
rounding the Hebrew cemetery, where
funeral service was going on. They stoned
and then fired volley of revolver shots
at the mourning Jews, many of whom
were wounded. The Jews fled in panic
Later in the day members of the Black
Hundred divided themselves into small
groups and ransacked several Jewish
shops, mereilessly beating the proprietors.
A police sergeant who attempted to in
tervene was brutally attacked, where
upon he drew his revolver and killed one
OF his assailaEts. There were fewer po-
lice than usual on the streets today.
After further Jew batting detacfments of
Cossacks arrived on the scene, but In
stead of pursuing the Black Hundred
they laughed at the -rapidity with which
they made their escape. Up to the pres
ent time Governor General Novitsky has
made no attempt to stop the outrages.
but nevertheless they are diminishing
gradually.

SANPETE FARMER STABBED
Andrew Syndergaard Cuts Niels
Christensen at Mt. Pleasant,
and Latter May Die.
Especial to The Herald.

Mt. Pleasant Oct. 7.-Niels Christensen
was severely cut in the abdomen this aft
ernOon in a quarrel over some horses by
Andrew Syndergaard and now lies at hrs
home in serious condition with several
doctors in attendance.
Last spring Mr.. Christensen sold some
horses, and they were not entirely salts
factory to the buyer. He was accused of
being dishonest and was told that Mr.
Synergaard had circulated the rumors of
the deal as being crooked. Both men, be-
fore the happening, were the best of
friends. but for some time since cool
ness has existed between them.
The trouble came TO a head today when
they met on the street. Christensen was
under the influence of liquor, while Sny-
dergaard was not, having the reputation
in town of being entirely temperate.
Christensen accosted Syndergaard and &C
cused him of defaming his character, US
ing abusive language and striking him
several times. Syndergaard tried to pacify
him without success. Then Syndergaard
became enraged and attacked Christensen
with pocket knife inflicting a wound
about three inches deep. The men were
separated and Christensen was sent to
his home, where he is resting quietly in
the care of the DOCTORS who have hopes
for his recovery.
Syndergaard was not arrested as he is
well known about town, but the sheriff
will arrest him this morning Both men
are well known and prominent citizens

CHINA GETS CONCESSIONS
Great Difference Between Russian
and Japanese Procedure in
Province of Manchuria.

Pekin. Oct. IA new telegraph conven-
ton between Russia and China was
signed here today. Under it China recov-
ers all her previous telegraph rights in
Russian Manchuria, and 2,oo0 miles of
lines and connections are formally turned
back to her. Russia surrenders the privi-
leges she has exercised since the Boxer
outbreak and IN the future will pay tele-
graph royalties TO China.
This is quite different from the Jap
anese procedure in Manchuria. Japan in
creased her claims for telegraph and
telephone privileges and extended both
methods of communication in defiance of
the sovereignty of China, entangling this
matter with che entire political question
in Manchuria.
The Korea Manchuria boundary dispute
between China and Japan is at a dead
lock. Three battalions of Chinese troops
who were given orders to occupy Chen
Tao were stopped by Japan's protest
to China and the presence on the border
of a detachment of Japanese troops I'M
der command of a lieutenant colonel.
China relies for justification of her claim
to Chen Tao on an acknowledgment by
the emperor of Korea about seventeen
years ago that her sovereignty extended
there, while Japan relies upon the pre-
dominance of Korean interests and actual
possession of the town.
China is pushing the construction of
the telegraph lines from Ninguta to Hun
chun.

passenger fares shall continue in Georgia
is the practical issue involved in the suit

Central of Georgia, while at present COM

the railroad commission and the governor

Thursday morning. A request was sent

by the strike leaders the men will go
back of their own accord"
Officials of both the Western Union and

not be dnnsidered. The officials declared
that theft forces had gradually been in
creasing during the past few days and
that Practically all of the men employed
TO take the place of strikers would be
retained. II was added that as a result
probably not more than a third of the
strikers would be reinstated.
