Destructive yellow River.

Thousands of men work all their
lives at securing the banks of the
great Yellow river in China. Yet
every now and then the tide sweeps
away all opposition and the loss In
human life Ia greater than any war
ever caused. Nineteen years ago the
river burst its bonds. Day after day
the torrent flowed, 20 miles to the
hour, 80 miles wide and ten feet deep.
The flood has been described as that
of five Danubes pouring from o height
for two months on end. For 1000
years the Chinese have been embank-
fng this river.

BRYAN NVADES EAST
TO MAKE OPENING ADDRESS IN sst COOPER UNION.
It Is Belief Of Political Leaders Of
 Both Parties That The Nebras- -rs1 kan AspiFes to Re Demo- sezsE cratic Nominee.

New York, Oct, 2o.-The belief among political leaders of both parties that William J. Bryan aspires to be the Democratic standard bearer again next year and the feeling, moreover that he will soon make formal an nouncement of his candidacy for the nomination has created a more or less interest in his present visit to the East Opening with an address in Cooper Un- ion Tuesday night the Nebraska lead CT has planned a speaking tour that will consume several weeks and pro- vides for his appearance In most of the large cities of New York State and New England.
 MT. Bryan was to have made his initial speech tomorrow night. not in Cooper Union, which has a compara- lively small seating capacity, but in Madison Square Garden, which was the scene of one of his most notable tri- umphs on the occasion of his welcome home on his return from tour of the world. His positive refusal, however to accent contributions from corpora tions or other large financial interests, if Is stated, handicapped the manage ment so much for funds that the plan to have the demonstration in Madison Square Garden had to be abandoned. Carnegie Hall was given up for the same reason. and 1t was finally decid- ed to hold the meeting in Cooper Un- ion. If the occasion warrants 1t an overflow meeting will be held to &C., commodate the crowd.

BIG SCANDAL AT HARTFORD Baptis Minister Driven
 fro!,!I9n ron Town. 'eINoUs CRIME IS CHARGED Prominent Citizen Attempts to Kill
 Preacher. He Was only Prevented From Doing So By the Interference of
 Nearby Friend-whole
 Town Shocked.

Hartford, Oct. 20- Especially - This unusually quiet town was stirred from center to circumference by the report that very prominent citizen of Hartford had attempted to take the life of Rev. w. J. b. Upshaw, pas- tor of the Baptist Church at this place. But when the cause for the effort be- came known. the people were almost thunderstruck.
 It Is alleged that the minister had attempted to take undue liberties with little daughter of the irate citizen. while the little girl was visiting at the minister's home. These facts came to the fathers ears and when he verified them. he made efforts to re- venge the attempted Insult to his fam fly. and was only prevented from do- ing so by the interference of a nearby friend.
 The attempted deed, coming from. a minister of the gospel in charge of & flock here. and one who was well thought of. shocked the people. The minister was faced by the little girl in her charge. and he rendered no ex- cuse. The minister left for parts un- known, after he escaped from the irate father.
 Rev. MT. Upshaw had been in charge of the Baptist Church here for some months and was well received by all denominations. There are rumors of other attempts he had made to invade the sanctity of the home circles of some Of his flock. previous to the stir of Saturday.

Conner and Smith May
 Hold Conference Today

all attorneys engaged on one side or the other of the litigation -nanding be- fore the Federal Court. n IT
 The United States Court of Appeals meets this morning. and these gentle men said they were here to attend the sittings of the Court of Appeals. Rail- road Commissioner w. D. Nesbit cams down from his Birmingham home to present at today's meeting of the c mission. Attorney General A. M. cs& Der was among the rather large q wd that was in the Exchange, but he had nothing to give out on pending Iitiga- tion or controversies.
 Much Gossip, No Facts.
 The hotel Hobbies, as natter of course, with so many prominent rail- road officials present. was alive with gossip as to the effect of the confer ence on the extra session of the Legis. lature called by Governor Conner But the talk was gossip and nothing more. The one definite thing was the confer ence to be held at the Capitol today. Beyond that all was speculation.
 It is known that the Attorney Gener. al has been Investigating the law gov. erning the extra session of the Legis- lature and its call. to ascertain if a call could be revoked after it was once issued. It Is generally held that this can be done. So 1t Is believed that if the conference resulted satisfactorily to the Governor. the call would be re- scinded.
 It is common Knowledge. too, that the Governor would welcome circum- stance under which the call for the ex- tra session could be revoked and his point gained. The proposed extra ses- sion has proved unpopular. Protests have come from every section of the State and the press of Alabama has generally deplored the issuance of the call. Several conferences and several desire of the Governor to avoid the ex- tra session. which has been called.
 Adjustment is Possible.
 Tho subject of the conference, the sbasis upon which settlement will be proposed, was not indicated in any of the hotel gossip of last night The Louisville and Nashvil has steadily refused tc accept the terms that were offered the other litigating railroads. It could not be determined last night whether the authorities of the Louis vile and Nashville would be made q new offer or whether an attempt would be made to argue them into accepting the terms accepted by other roads who entered with them Into a test of the acts of the Legislature.
 So, the situation at midnight was that today might bring forth an ad-. juEtment which would prevent the as- sembling of the extra session. or 1t might result in nothing but futile discussion of pending controversies.
 Its possible effect is the resembling of the call. but last night this did not seem to be it's probable effect. But as long as it has the possibility of the resembling of the call the conference is of vast importance to the entire State, which is considerably disturbed over the reassembIing of the Legisla- ture,a

 Pittsburg, Oct, 20-Thomas W. Welch. Jr second vice president of the Second National Bank of Pittsburg to- night in an interview, denied emphati- cally that the late Mrs. Cassie Chad wick had an account of S35O.000.
 "rhe first time I ever heard of Mrs. Chadwick having a deposit in the Second National Bank" said Mir Welch, twas when I read the Cleveland dis patches in the papers this morning. She never had any money in the bank her estate has no money there now.
 "It Is possible Mrs. Chadwick s creditors reading the newspapers may entertain hopes of getting some money out of the estate. but they should not build upon the story that she has money in the Second National Bank"
 How Mrs. Chadwick got the pass book of the Second National Bank and who made the entries, cannot be ex- plained here. Some of the contents of the deposition made by Mrs. Chadwick while in the penitentiary at Colum- bus O., to A. Leo Well. 0s this city, attorney for Mrs. W. c.

W. BRIDGES ASSASSINATED Evergreen Citizen Killed
 In Woods. NO CLUE TO THE MURDERER He Was Out Hunting When Shot

 Was 0rsanised--Body
 Was Found.
NO CLUE TO THE MURDERER

Evergreen. Oct. 2o.-(speciai. )--The body of William Henry Bridges. a well known contractor and builder of Ever green, was found this morning about Il o'clock in the woods, three miles from this place. in a pool of his own blood, having been assassinated some time during yesterday afternoon or last night by an unknown party.
 The gruesome ind was made by . searching party of young men fresss Evergreen. who had been securing the woods all night and part of today in search of Mir. Bridges. who had left his home yesterday afternoon about { o'clock and at nightfall had failed to return. On his failure to return home at the accustomed hour last night, his wife became alarmed and asked the young men to go out into the woods and search for him.
 There were two wounds on the body made by bullets. One was just back of the head and the other on the left shoulder blade. both of which clearly proved that he had been shot from be- hind. His shotgun was laying by his side and both barrels were still load~ ed. Upon examination or the gun " was discovered that no shots had been fired by him. A small roll of bills. of different denominations. was found in his pocket. which showed that the mo- tive of the killing was not robbery.
 Immediately after the finding of the body a coroner's jury was empaneiled and several witnesses examined. The verdict was that MT. Bridges came to his death from bullet wounds the murder being committed by an un- known party.
 Mir. Bridges was we'll known In Eve ergreen and generally liked by all, and so far as Is known had no enemies. The cause of the murder will probably always remain q mystery. He is sur- vived by wife and i've little claiI~ dren. sg *
 The place where the body was found Is about three-quarters of milo on the public road, In the woods where he had gone for a short hunting trip
