BRYAN SEES ROOSEVELT.
Nebraskan Calls at White House and
 Is Thanked by President.


 Is Thanked by President.
 Washington. Nov. 25. - Presiden! Roosevelt was visited by William J. Bryan, and they had a conference for half an hour in the presidents private office at the White House.
 Mr. Bryan was rather unwilling to discuss the details of his interview. but was free to add details 10 the financial plan which he proposed few days ago. In reviewing every meas ure of relief which had come to his notice MT. Bryan said that nothing seemed to be intended to meet the sit uation as effectively and at the same time as simply as the plan he had sug- gested. This plan, he said, was sim ply to have the government insure de- positors in national banks against loss by reason of the failure of the banks.
 Mr. Bryan congratulated the presi- dent on the stand he had taken with regard to corporations and assured him his hearty support on every proposition in which the presidents attitude was in line with that of the Democratic party He told the president that there were many such propositions and that he was willing to do anything in his power to secure Democratic support in congress for such measures.
 The president expressed his hearty appreciation of Mir Bryan's attitude and indicated his grateful acceptance of any support which the Democratic leader could bring to him.

 Miss Kate Bonner member Of we'll known family who was reported missing from her home in Bridgeport last Friday, was discovered yesterday in the woods, sleeping in the corner of stone wall and under the cover of mail bag. Miss Bonner was b'ue from cold and exposure and emaciated from want of food.
 Burglars entered the postoffice af Hawleyville and also the general store of George F. Baker & Co some time Saturday night, although little was taken from either place. In both instances entrance was gained through a window. At the postoffice about seventy-five cents was taken from the cash drawer, while at the Baker store a quantity of clothing was appropriated.
 Miss Louise A. Gilman of East Hartford, who at present is visiting friends in Los Angeles, Cal, was roughly attacked on the streets there on the night of November 1, by a footpad while returning home late in the evening and Miss Gilman gave an exhibition of real eastern grit that vanquished the western ruffian. Miss Gilman was accompanied by Miss Frances Golf, daughter of Judge Golf of that place, and Miss Gather inc Eberts. At Third street and Grand avenue the footpad sprang from a shadow and snatched the handbags which Miss Golf and Miss Eberts were carrying and then started to run. Miss Golf caught the crook by the collar as he was trying to do his best to get away and her calls for help were responded to by her com panions. Miss Gilman joined in the battle until they had succeeded in getting back the stolen property, in spite of the struggles of the footpad, who then escaped.

AS TO SMOKE LAW.
Central Labor Union Committee Visits
District Building.

John Riggles, chairman of the smoke law
committee of the Central Labor Union; H.
F. Speakman, representing the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists; r. NJ.
Kephart, representing the Machinists'
Union; H. G. McComas and Charles A. Oak
ley representing the Brotherhood f Loco
motive Fremen and E. j. Humphrey, rep
resenting the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, called on Commissioner Macfar-
land this morning to recommend that the
smoke law be amended so as to permit an
emission of dense black or gray smoke or
cinders for three minutes in each hour of
the day.
Commissioner Macfarland told them that
he did not believe that. after plant owners
generally had brought their plants into
compliance with the law, the law should be
amended in any other way than to bring
locomotive engines under its provisions. The
plant owners had demonstrated that the
present law could be complied with, and
they ought not to be Disseminated against
by leaving locomotive engines out of the
operation of the law, or giving them a
longer period of legal emission. Plant own
ers who provided sufficient boiler capacity
and necessary mechanical devices, and who
employed good men at good wages. and
with efficient superintendent, had no diff
ficulty in complying with the law. The
railroads had promised, whether they were
included in the law or not, to meet 1t by
burning anthracite or -bituminous coal,
coke. 1t was in the interest of the work
ingmen as we'll as everybody else that the
national capital should be free from the
sr,ole nuisance. and Mr.. Mcfarland asked
the cooperation of those whom the delega-
ton represented in improving the condi-
tons. He called their attention to the rec
of President Roosevelt for
more stringent smoke law.
