Of Robbery in
Papers.

NEW YORK. September 6.-Laura NJ.
Carter, who Is charged with having re-
ceived several thousand dollars of the
fortune In bank notes stolen from tho
Windsor Trust Company by Chester B.
Runyan., went on the witness stand In
her own behalf to-day. Her testimony
was almost complete denial of the
material points In the story told by
Runyan when he appeared as witness
against her last week. She said that
the first she knew of the Trust Com
pany robbery and Runyans part in it
was gained from the newspaper week
after Runyan came to her house.
Mrs Carter said that previous to
this Runyan had given her $4,000. say
ing he had brought 1t to her as a pres
ent. When she accused him of the
robbery and he admitted his identity
she told him that he should take the
money back to the bank so that he
could square himself, and that sho
would return the $1,000 he had givcn
her. He refused. The next day she
returned the $4,000 and went to the po-
lice with the information which re-
suited in Runyan'sl arrest.

stated that the emissaries who urged
Mr.. Bryan to stand aside and give

matter of grave doubt whether man

Speaks at Vermont Fish and
Game League
Dinner.

BLUFF POINT. n. Y. September e.
The annual dinner of the Vermont Fish
and Game League, held here to-day,
brought together about 500 representa-
tive citizens of Vermont. who listened
with interest to speeches by Governor
Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, of Illi-
nois. Speaker Cannon was greeted
with cheers, and at once put his hear
ers in good humor with story. Con-
tinuing. he said:
II recollect very we'll the time when
we were awful anxious to have the
public improvements made and money
invested. The capital Of the people
was enlisted in the construction OF
railways.
We gave them Sta.e aid and county
aid and city aid and Individual aid
and we granted them charters for
ninty-nine years and sometimes longer,
. in which We made the broadest possible
grants of the right to flS the passenger
snd freight tariff without limitation.
In the course of time we thought 1t
became oppressive and the Granger
movement came on and the courts de-
clded that under the Dartmouth case
and a. long line of decisions cited that
1t was vested right, acquired by cons
tract with the State. and legislation
was enacted first by one side and then
by another, and it was finally deter
mined by appeal to the Court Of Last
Resort of the United States, that, while
these grants were made, vet the SOW
ereign could not divest himself of his
rights to regulate the fare and the
charges, bounded only by the condition
that 1t should be reasonable, and that
Is the law to-day.
"And since these decisions were made
the railroad mileage has been doubled.
Now don't let anybody think I don't
want railways regulated, common car
riers regulated, everything regulated
under the Constitution and the law,
that ought to be regulated, and that
we have the power to regulate, hut
In regulating let us not forget that
p 1t is our duty to protect not only every
Individual that forms a part Of the
body polite, but while we do that
and protect the farmer and the man.
ufacturer we must also sec to 1t that
we grant full justice and full pro,
lection to every man that owns a
share of railroad stock or a govern
ment security"
