New England, but today they were more general and came from nearly every section of the country. The approach of the week end always heightens the demand for ready money.
 There has been absolutely no indica- ton of a syndicate bid for the treas ury certificates forthcoming from the associated banks of the city, such as has been intimated since Monday. un- less it be the fact that several large loans were called in today on the re- vival of a report of the possibility of a favorable outcome to negotiate an American loan in France with the treasury certificates as a basis. This has strengthened the rumor of the as- sociated bid from the New York bank CTS.
 Some New York banks are said to be holding off. to give small in vestOrs with hoartfed savings chance to put in their-claims and thus draw into circulation the money for which the certificates were largely designed Nearly all the larger banks have re- ceiVed orders from their customers to make purchases of certificates for their account. These purchases will be made out of the deposits already in hand however. and not bringing new money into market.

VOrys However Claims That the Endorsement Was Not Significant.

Columbus. O., Nov 21-Scnator For aker today was formally endorsed for reelection to the senate and for the republican nomination for the presi- dency at a meeting of the legislative committee and advisory committee of the Ohio League of Republican Clubs. About eighty-five members were pres ent from all parts of the state.
 When asked for an expression reia- tive to the action taken at the meet ing. Mir. Vorys, manager of the Taft campaign. directed the following state ment: The resolutions profess that the committee is representing the eighty-eight counties of ohio. As a matter of fact the members of the committee were not elected by the re- publicans of the several counties. Al the time the committee was announced it was generally understood that il was appointed and its members named by friends and representatives of For aker. The action of the committee therefore, is not surprising.
 'I hope that this action may precip- itate what the friends of Taft so much desire-that is. an opportunity for a direct expression by the republicans oi ohio for their choice for president. am satisfied ohio republicans are ov- erwhelmingly for Taft"

No Hint Thrown Out as to His Near Ap-
 preaching Message
General and Growing Curiosity to Whether It Will Set Forth a Changed Attitude Toward the Trusts.

Washington. D. C., Nov. 20.-With the approach of the meeting of the new Congress interest in the Roose- welt trust policy increases. Curiosity is being whetted toS-azor edge by the strange silence of the president upon the question. Old Wasningtonians de- clare that no president has been as frank outspoken and less mysterious as Mir Roosevelt concerning the topics and their treatment in his annual and special messages to congress. Hereto fore he has taken into nls confidence on these important matters everybody who has laid a claim upon his time or attention. His messa ges. therefore have been largely discounted by the interests. general and special. involved days and weeks before their delivery and publication. But in the present instance President Roosevelt is as si- lent as the Sphinx, and quite as cryp- tic. All sorts and conditions of men have tried in vain to get from him some hint. be it ever so vague, as to what new legislation dealing with the trust question in it's relation to inter state commerce in his forthcoming message to congress. But thus far he has favored nobody. as far as known with the desired information. When asked for an expression that may in dicate the drift of his mInd of the goal of his purpose he shuts up like clam. 10 the infinite embarrassment of his inquisitor. or abruptly changes the subject.
 Presumably it is understood that it is the privilege of the president of the United States to lead in conversation. This is particularly true of MT. Roose- welt. He has reduced it to a fine art Verify is he the head of the table wherever he may sit. He sets the pace of discussion. and while he does not show the utmost pleasure when d vis- itor disagrees with him. 'at the same time he displays keener irritation whenever a caller agrees supinely with his every suggestion. He is a man of pugnacious character. Nobody likes a fight better than he. He would a lief quarrel with a clergyman on theology as with a politician on some public question of the moment or a disputa- tisus economic theorist on pet hobby.

BIGGER BANKS
 STANDING OFF
No Overwhelming Demand
 for the New Loan
The Attitude of the New York Bankers is VariOusly Interpreted.

New York. Nov 20.-The govern mcnt's issue of certificates of indebted ness continued today to engross the attention of New York bankers. who apparently have not reached d decis- ion as to the course they shall pursue. The subscriptions so far received seem tl indicate that the larger banks of the city are temporarily withholding offers of purchases. The sub-treasurN officials are not disposed to make public the amount of the subscrip- tons during the past three days.
 The fact that the banks are holding off has le,l to more or less definite report that the heads of the larger banks are desirous of receiving some sort of assUhance from Washington that the money paid out here for the purchases of the new securities will be left on deposit in local institutions.
 The currency premium between 2lh and 23i.. during most of the day. with some transactions as high as a 3 per cent advance. is attributed to the de- mands of the interior for payroll Dur

the congress with the state of the union." In other words, the framers of the constitution had in mind only that the chief executive should in this sense be only the means by which the Lawmakers should be informed of the conditions of the nation and its needs. Every president from the days of Washington has proceeded upon the assumption that he was not merely en- joined by the constitution to acquaint the lawmakers with the actual con- ditions of the nation, but also to insist upon the enactment of certain legisla- tion remedial of conditions which may not jibe with his notions Of the fitness of things in particular and in general. No president. with the possible excep- ton of Andrew Jackson. has been as profuse in his recommendation of rem ed;es as has MT. Roosevelt. This statement is based upon the results of a careful study of "The Messages and Papers of the Presidents, perhaps the most valuable. because of it's informa- ton volumes ever issued by the govern ment.

He Replies MalienantIy to the Asso- eiation's Charges Against Him.
So the Leader Declared Before the Convention of the American Feder- ation.

Norfolk. Nov. 2l.-A great sensation was created in the American Federa- tion of Labor convention this after noon by President Gompers in his speech replying to the attacks made upon him and the other officers of the Federation by the Manufacturers as sociation. when he told of an alleged attempt to bribe him at the Victoria hotel in New York in October by a young newspaper man giving the name of Charles Brandenburg. the latter. Gompers said. having declared that he represented the the Manufacturers as- sociation and was prepared to offer him immunity from all exposure and make him financially secure for life if he would sign certain papers. Other wise he would aid in the exposure of him and the other leaders of the American Federation of Labor with a view to virtually destroy the influence of organized labor The paper. Com pers said. was to purport to have been signed when Gompers was ill in 1895. The paper. Gompers said. he had pre- served and while a death-like stiffness prevailed in the convention.

spoken a s'nglc word which may be fairly interpreted as indicating either his natured purpose as to anti-trust, railroad or tariff legislation or the drift of his thoughts on these subjects Wherefore. all Washington is wonder ing what has come over the spirit of his dreams.
 One can hear all kinds of repoEs s here as to what the president proposes to urge upon congress touching the trusts. the railroads and the tariff As to this you pay your money and you take your choice" The wise citizen is he who can patiently await the actual delivery of the message. and then gov ern himself accordingly By this is meant that what the president may recommend will have a powerful. if not a determining. influence upon congress. The new body of lawmakers is a more distinctively Roosevelt congress than any that has assembled under the dome of the capitol. IL is conservatively es- timated that quite two-thirds of the house were elected as Roosevelt men. irrespective of their nominal party af-
 
 tremendous import of this condition better than the president Whether this understanding is having what. for lack of a better term. may be called a so- bering effect upon him, is. of course merely a matter of conjecture. The consensus of opinion here. however. is that this condition has increas sed his sense or responsibility and that this in turn has tinged his thoughts with d firmeT conservatism than ever before he has felt. II follows. therefore. that in the judgment of Washington. the president will not appear so radical in his dealings with congress this winter as he heretofore has apparently been. In point of fact Washington is almost convinced that if things polit cal are to MT. ROosevelt's liking he will put the breaks on his forthcoming rnessa ge. In other words. it is generally expected here that. in the language of Shake speare. he will coo as gently as a sucking dove" on the trust. the raii- road and the tariff questions in his annual communication ro congress.
 By the way. it seems not 10 be gen erally known that the message he will send at the opening of congress will be written because the constitution im- poses that duty upon him. That in- strument directs merely that the pres ident shall. from time to time. acquaint

Washington. Nov 2O.-That Mrs. Bradley did not come to Washington with the intention of killing former Senator Brown of Utah and she did not even remember shooting him she told the jury in her trial today. That statement was not reached until the afternoon session. The first half Of the day was given largely 10 the identifi- cation of letters from Brown 10 Mrs. Bradley and from her to him, very few of which were read.
 The tragedy formed the subject of the afternoon sitting. District Attor- ney Baken devoted little attention to the shooting but going back to the early days of the relationship between Brown and Mrs. Bradley he sought to show by reading letters and question ing the witness that she had deliber- ately undertaken to brt ak up Browns ' home: that she was at enmity with Mrs. Brown as early as 1901. He ! brought out that Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Bradley had originally been strong friends and that the friendship extend ed beyond the time of the birth of Mrs. Bradley's first child by Brown.
