HENRY WATTERSON'S VIEWS
ON BRYAN'S TENTATIVE
CANDIDACY FOR THE
PRESIDENCY.

BOONE, Iowa, Nov. 15.-Col. Hen
ry Watterson asked today by The Asso-
ciated Press for his opinion on VIM. J.
Bryan's tentative acceptance Of the
democratic presidential nomination,
declared that he had labored with Bry
an to have him decline the nomination
and to quit his 'dog-in- -the-manger"
attitude. Col Watterson realized that
Bryan had it in his power to demand
the leadership of the democratic party
in 1908 or "defeat any other candidate
by knitting him as he did Parker
Bryan acceptance was no more than
he had expected, however greatly he
regretted the action, because he
thought Bryan could no longer create
enthusiasm as he had done before the
people too many times.
Asked about the assertion often made
as to who the next President would be,
Roosevelt or Bryan, Col. WattersOn
said that the nomination Of Roosevelt
was all Bryan supporters wanted, be-
cause they could then go to the people
on the third term slogan. Bryan could
carry New England in such cam
paign, he thought. Roosevelt by such
an act would Mexicanize this govern
ment, holding himself as greater than
Washington.
AS for himself, much as he disliked
to do so, Col. Watterson would vote
for Bryan against Roosevelt in such 8
dilemma. He believed, however, that
Roosevelt would decline another nomi
nation as he had nothing to gain anG
the republican party had many mel
of presidential calibre. He mentioned
especially Taft, Hughes and Crane o.
Massachusetts. He said Senator Crane
would make strong man on the ar
gument that New England had no
had President for long time

Waues Reported Cut.

WHITWELL, Tenn, Nov, 10. -
There have been several changes in
things here since the closing down Of
the coke ovens recently, which were
shut down owing to the financial
difficulties involving the Southern
Steel Co. which took the product The
salaries of a good many at the foot of
incline, have been reduced, some $l5
or $40 per month, and others discharg-
ed. No coal is screened now, the out
put being run of mines, and something
over 900 tons are loaded daily, mostly
taken by the n. q G. R'y. The wag-
es of the miners are also reported cut,
but they refuse to talk about it, hence
it is has not been discovered now
much. The intimation of the reduc-
ton was when a miner said that the
reduction meant 81 loss to him in a
month, but he refused to say how
much he was making.

bound freight train, near the union
passenger station in Alexandria yes
terday afternoon, an unknown boy, ap-
parently about fourteen years old. was
thrown under the wheels and crushed

brought to a stop and the boy was re-
moved from the track. He expired a
few minutes later. The remains were
taken to the undertaking establishment
Of B. Wheatley, and Coroner Ashton, af-
ter viewing the body, ordered an in
quest for II o'clock this morning. A
careful examination failed to reveal the
identity Of the boy, the only indication
of his name and address being found
in the notation written in his cap, H.
H., 324 Third street"
The boy was dressed in a blue serge
suit and a blue cap He was of slender
build. with light hair and a number Of
freckles. Lieut. Peck. thinking the
number might indicate Washington,
sent a man TO the house indicated in
the cap. but failed to obtain a clew
to the dead boys identity.
His picture Will be taken tomorrow
and sent to the larger cities in this
section.
Several persons witnessed the acci-
dent. which occurred on the bridge

slipped and he was thrown first against
the side of the bridge and then under
the wheels.

nuaI Outing in June

nual outing In June.
Much interest is being taken by mem
bers Of the American Institute of Bank
ing in the approaching installation of
officers May q, and in the annual outing
to be given June p. All members of the
District Banking Association, which has
always watched over the institution with
parental eye, have been invited to at
tend the Inauguration of officers.
II would naturally be supposed that tie
new name selected in the last convention
Of the national association held IN Hot
Springs, Ark, The American Institute of
Banking, was merely All elaborate name
for a union OF the bank employees. Such,
however. is not the case. While it is a
banding together Of bank clerks, it em-
bodies none OF the principles Of trade
unionism. and was organized and is fos-
tered by the American Bankers Associa-
tion. Its object is entirely educational, The
bankers realizing that the day has passed
when a man could start as a runner and
gradually acquire a full knowledge of all
the departments.
The organization was proposed as far
back as 1895, when the American Bankers
Association appointed an educational
committee TO look into the matter. Upon
the recommendation Of this committee the
following resolution was passed in the
annual convention IN Richmond. Va. in
1900:
That It Is the sense og the convention that the
executive council should authorize the committee
o education % organize institute of bank cleTks
for the bank clerks q the United states, aTpT0-
priating such an amount as viii be necessary 70
inaugurate and operate The same for the first gear,
not exceeding $1,000.
Since the organization was effected. the
American Bankers Association has ap-
propriated approximately $4,000 toward
promoting the cause The institute has
chapters in every large city from Rich
mond, north to SherbTOoke Canada, and
new ones are being formed that In the
end will extend the institute over the en-
tire country.
While education is the purpose Of the
institute Il in no sense conducts a school,
but holds what are known as reading
courses in practical banking, commercial
law, and political economy. Washington
Chapter is now in its sixth year, and is
one of the leaders. It has had some Of
the most instructive lectures, debates
