Gen. BOOTH SPEAKS At CHICAGO;
MAY Be LAST PUBLIC APPEARANCE

dence of failing strength brought up in
stantly the question of his successor in
the event of his collapse.
That General Booth realizes his days
are numbered was suggested by his
own announcement at the afternoon
meeting that his successor had been
chosen. He did not make public the
identity of the person on whom his
mantle was to fall. The popular idea
in this country that his daughter, Com
mander Evengeline Booth, is to succeed
him was proved erroneous when local
leaders of the Salvation Army asserted
authoritatively that Bramwell Booth,
the generals eldest son, now his chief
of staff in London, will succeed to the
world leadership of the organization.
People of Prominence Present.
Many men and women of social pres.
tige and business and professional dis
tinction were present at the meetings
Judge Richard S. Tuthill, Judge Henry
Freeman, President Harry Pratt Judson
of the University of Chicago, BishoI
Samuel Fallows, Luther Latin Mills
and w. F. Kennedy were on the stage
in the afternoon.

MRS. JACK HATHAWAY
REITERATES STORY
Oquawka Woman Frustrated and al
Home of MISUNDERSTANDING Has
Not Returned to Dwelling.

Oquawka, H., Oct. THE blasted
home of Jack Hathaway, where the
shocking accident resulting in the
death of Leslie Hathaway, occurred
last Wednesday, stands today desert
ed. Mrs. Hathaway is completely pros
trated and has been taken to the home
OF her mother in Gladstone. She ciings
with battling persistence to the story
of the outrage which she first related
and reiterates her denial of the
charges that she entered the house of
George Hall and took various articles
from it. The father of the unfortunate
lad has not returned to his former
home.
A thorough inspection of the prem
ises has been made by the authorities
which resulted in the discovery of an.
other piece of evidence which indicates
more strongly than ever that the belief
is not unfOunded that Mrs. Hathaway
was robbing the house of the Halls
when the little boy met his fate. y
tablecloth which was identified as ore
missing from the Hall home, was
found with Mrs. Hathaway's posse 5
sions, together with several other odds
and ends of comparatively little value
which also belong to the Hall family
But as far as revealing any clue aG
to how the little boy met death, the
search was unsuccessful.

Having Its Ef-
feet.

In Halifax, N. s., they have an or
dinance relating to the use of pro
fame language which is as follows:
mo person shall on any street, or in
any doorway, window or other opening
leading into any street, openly use
any profane, obscene, lewd or las
civious language or behavior, and any
person so using such language or be-
haviOr may be forthwith taken into
custody by any police officer and
taken to the police station, and there
detained for not more than one hour
for the purpose of Identification.
Every person who fails to comply
with or contravenes any of the fore
going provisions of .this ordinance
with respect to the prevention of dis
order and impropriety. shall for every
such offense, be liable to a penalty
not exceeding SO, and in default of
payment to imprisonment for a period
not exceeding 10 days.
ANY person profanely cursing or
swearing in the hearing of the mayor,
stipendiary magistrate or aldermen. or
any peace officer, who shall be con-
victed thereof, shall forfeit not less
than 81 nor more than SS, for the first
offense, and for the second double
and for third offense TRIBE that sum
and, in default of payment shall b
committed to Jail for term not less
than two nor more than 90 days"
"These laws" says George Wrigh,
of that city writing to the Acadian
he who runs may read, are not en-
forced and the consequence is the in
creased number of persons using pro
fame and obscene language, can easily
be accounted for. The blame is at oul

Chicago Grand Jury Makes
Report Full of Sensa-

PROTECTION BOUGHT
lnquisitorial Body Censures
Telephone Company and 9th
ers for Aid Given.

Chicago, Oct. IA grand jury in
quiry into the operations of an alleged
combination of gamblers which is said
to have built up an extensive system
of handboOks, card games, roulette and
faro playing in this city resulted in a
report Saturday afternoon involving
bribery, corruption and incompetenCY
on the part of certain police and city
officials.
ReOrganize Force.
The grand jury recommended that
the portion of the police force that
has been in charge of the prosecution
of gamblers be reorganiZed and that
those responsible for the laxity and
corruption found to exist be trans
ferred or dismissed from the service.
The report stated that no indictments
had been returned against the com.
paratively few gamblers about whose
operations conclusive proof was found
because the jurors believe that such
indictments would result in punish
ment for the small offender while the
real culprits would escape
Paid $1,000 u Week.
1t was set forth that $4,000 a week
was paid for protection for the City of
Traverse while operating as a pool
ship in Lake Michigan, but the jurors
were unable to trace this sum step by
step until it reached the hands of the
man responsible for the protection af
forded. The Chicago Telephone COM
rany was scored for its action in fur
nishing secret telephones to the al
legged gambling syndicate.
Keep jury in Dark.
Other officials were charged with
having wilfully withheld information
from the members of'the jury, and it
was pointed out that without the con-
nivance of the telephone company the
gamblers would be unable to carry on
their business.

Chicago. Oct. 7.-Chicago had three
to hear General William
Booth yesterday. The octogenarian
founder and leader of the Salvation
Army spoke in the morning and the af-
ternoon at the Colonial theater and in
the evening at the Auditorium.
The evening meeting was made men,
orable by the announcement by Gen
eral Booth that it was the last he would
address in many years. In view of his
advanced age, his followers declared it
probably was the last occasion their
beloved leader would ever appear in
public.
All three meetings were crowded. 1t
is estimated that nearly 10000 persons
were in the audiences. The streets at
the entrances of the theaters were
thronged for several hours before the
doors were opened. Thousands were
turned away.

vigorous. the strain of the days work

a young man, he offered his services
as drill master to the imperial troops.
Gradually he worked himself into the
confidence of the ruler and was given
the task of putting the entire army on

The fire devastated nine blocks in

was still burning. A heavy wind and
lack of sufficient fire fighting appar-
