BRYAN's PLATFORM.
Will Not Ask for Endorsement of
 Government Ownership.

Government Ownership.
 Chicago, April 20.-A dispatch to The Record Herald from Omaha, Neb q, says
 The Democratic National platform of 1908, if W. J. Bryan controls the con- tention will not demand absolute gov ernment ownership of railroads. This was authoritatively announced yester- day by James c. Dahlman. national committeeman from Nebraska. The statement Is in the nature of an official announcement for the reason that MT |. Dahlman is In close touch with Mir. Bryan. From the same source 1t Is stated that tariffs reform will again become a dominant feature of the plat form.
 While MT Dah1man was not able to go into minute details he says the prominent blanks in MT. Bryans plat form will concern trusts. he tariff. State regulation and money. the rail- road ownership plank of course being conspicuous by its absence.
 Constitutional guarantees will have a strong indorsement and the accep- tance of campaign contributions from trusts and large corporations will re- ceive severe condemnation. The plat form will define the necessity for and uSS OL ilOHSy AOA running campaigns.
 Usurpation of power by the presi- dent also will be made a strong point and the convention will be asked to declare that President Roosevelt in this respect as we'll as in the matter of accepting or approving campaign contributions, has over-stepped true Democratic principles.
 Government economies will receive the usual attention and A halt will be demanded in naval extension. It will be declared that the vast sums being spent on armament may be much bet ter employed in irrigating the plains of the West. Developing of river nav igation is to be indorsed.
 Election of Senators by direct vote of the people, reformation of civil service rules and strong foreign poll cy will be strongly proclaimed and pledged.
 No overtures of any sort are to be made to the Populists, beyond a gen eral invitation directed to all classes to join forces with the Democratic par ty In m effort to enforce the princi- ples proclaimed and demanded In the Democratic faith.

PROTECT RED LIGHT.
CAPTAIN OF POLICE sUBsTAN-
 TIATES HIS CHARGES.
Says that san Francisco Demi-Mon datnes Have F1ourished Under Protection of Men Higher
 Up Since Fire.

San Francisco, April 20.--Captain of Police John Mooney of the Bush Street Station, appeared before the grand jury today to substantiate his charges. made recently in the press. to the effect that houses of iil-repute, saloons and red light vice generally, since the fire. have been fiourishing in his district by the protection of his superior officers, Chief DinAn in particular. Charges of insu- bordination have been preferred .against Captain Mooney by Chief Dinan as a result of the formers public dec laration
 The calling of Captain Mooney to the stand by the grand jury Is looked upon as the first formal step in an investiga- tion of the police department which the bribery graft prosecutors promised should be exhaustive and productive of results. The officer was in the witness chair for nearly two hours. during which time many exhibits. comprising police records. were examined. sub poena is outstanding for former Police Captain Alex OGrady, whom the pro- secution has thus far failed to find.
 According to OGrady's wife, he is and for two weeks has been In Reno. New, whither Mrs. O'Grady says he went on business and for his health. At his home it was said today that he was expected to return to the city next
 ubHudy, anu II was NiSoBoaSis oehiSu that he has any desireS or intent to evade the grand jury summons.
 The attorneys for Mayor Schmitz, when 1t comes his turn to be tried on the five counts of extortion. which the grand jury returned Jointly against him and Abraham Ruef, today filed in the State Supreme Court a brief sup porting Ruef's contention in his appli- cation for bail through habeas corpus, that the section of the penal code em- towering a judge to order a defendant into custody pending his trial is viola tive of the State Constitution. which provides that a person Is entitled to bail before conviction, unless charged with an offense punishable with death. and of which proof is evident or pre- sumption great.
 Schmitz's attorneys who filed this brief as amici curiae. or friends of the court" hope, in behalf of Ruef, a decision which will stand their own client in good stead when his case comes up for decision, which will be on authority of the decision.

posTPoNEs VISITS.
Belgian King win Not Visit Paris as
 Exuected.

beIEi0n hhnG VIII NOt Vt4tt Faria 4A Expected.
 Paris, April 20.--A dispatch received here from Brussels says the journey of King Leopold to Paris has been unex- pectediy postponed for one day from tomorrow until Monday.
 This trip of the King of the Belsians has aroused much conment and pecu- lation in political circles. The expla- nation thereof that finds the most cre- dence but which is impossible of con- firmation and which ip given with all reserve. Is that King Leopold will of- fer to cede the Congo independent state to France at his interview with President Fallieres. This Interview was arranged while King Leopold was on his way from Nice to Brussels.
 France has enjoyed the right of pre- emption in the Congo since the signing of the treaty of Berlin and this treaty gave King Leopold power to dispose of the Congo state during his life time. 1t has always been His Majesty's in- tention to turn over the Congo to Bel gium but exasperated by the opposition of the present Belgian Parliament to his views concerning the future Eov- ernment of the state. 1t is said he would prefer to hand it over to France. With that object in view the Bel gian monarch 1t is explained, is about to sound the French government.
 In other quarters the opinion is en- tertained that the approaching inter- view with President Fallieres is noth- ing more than threat against the Belgian Parliament

 Some difficulty has arisen over the objection of the SayvadoreaHs to the Nicaraguans' proposition to withdraw the Salvadorean troops from the boun- dary. The objection is based on tho fear on the part of the Salvadorean government that refugees from Sal vador. who are really revoluttonists. would soon cross the border from Honduras and invade Salvador if the troops were withdrawn.
