FORAKER HOLDS
HARD OHIO HAND
Senator Has Firm Grasp on
State Organization.
VORYS AND OTHERS ANXIOUS
Taft Leaders Say That Chairman
Brown is With Them.
7AFT's FRIENDS MAKE CLAIMS
But the Political Wiseacres Think
That There Will Be Great
Change in Time.


Special Dispatch to The Star
COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 27.-That Sena-
tor Foraker has firm grasp upon the re-
publican state organization has just been
demonstrated in an emphatic way. Thurs
day Chairman w. F. Brown of the republic
can state central committee was in Co
lumbus, and while here called upon State
we'll as John r. Malloy, the former the
avowed head of the Taft movement and
the latter commonly regarded as the local
representative, at least, of Senator For
akers interests. The Taft leaders were
quick to interpret Mr.. Browns call upon
Mr.. Vorys as indicating that he was ready
TO join the Taft movement Mr.. Brown
was placed at the head of the state central
committee at Dayton last fall, as the re-
suit of tie signal victory with senatorial
alliance, won in the senate convention over
the forces marshaled by Representative
T. E. Burton against them. In fact, Mr..
Burton secured but six out O. the twenty
one members of the new state central COM
n,ittee 1t is this committee that constitutes
the organization, or the party machine as
it is popularity denominat ted. 1t would be
extremely important if Chairman Brown
under these circumstances Joined with the
Taft movement. The Taft leaders assert
eu that he had.
Call to Committee.
1t will be the duty Of this chairman to
call the committee together to arrange for
the proposed staee primary. and to provide
rules for it. 1t will be seen, therefore, that
! the control of the committee, always an
| important matter, is doubly so now with
| The Foraker-Taft controversy pending.
From Columbus Chairman Brown went t.
| Cincinnati, where he held conference
with Senator Foraker, and Immediately an
nounced that he did not think that any
| primary election should be held this veal
| to decide the states Endorsement for the
presidency, and that he had no intention O.
| calling the state committee together to con
| slider the matter. This is to be the issue
| upon which the fight in Ohio is to center
now. In order to understand the impor
| lance Of it 1t must be known that the Tar
managers believe that they have theil
| forces as swell organized now as they will
ever have them; that the longer the sena
| tor hammers away at their forces, lined VI
as they are now, the less will be Taft!
| chances Of carrying the state.
| Want to Force Foraker.
So important was the statement of Chair
man Brown regarded by the Taft manager
that State Insurance Commissioner Vory
and his assistant. Henry A. Williams, lef
for Cincinnati early this morning to con
fer with Secretary Taft and his brothe
about it., They feel that some way mus
be found at once to force Senator Forake
| to submit to an immediate primary cleo
ton. Not later than the middle of July

manY to believe that even bennett was not
aware of the amount the loan clerk con-
templated stealing. 1t also leads some 10

in securities, and that the scheme was to
hold this bunch OF securities as club over

100000 of Securities.
1t is now known that Douglass got away
with total of little over 100000 worth
of securities. He was short between $50
| 600 and $4,000 through market speculation
with bennett, and Friday he got away with
about $400,O00 worth more. The next day,
Saturday, he made away with $4,000 worth
additional. What is puzzling the district
attorney and the trust company officials
| is what did the pair do with the funds they
| realized through placing these securities
on the market. 1t is said that neither
| Douglass nor bennett in their statements
made to the district attorney have revealed
| the hiding place of this amount of money.

| ertson Honey, who is counsel for Douglass.
was not to be found today. At his office II
was said that he out of the city. 1t
| is thought that Honey went to Boston TO
confer with Josiah Quincy. The latter is
Mr.. Honeys brother-in-law, and 1t was
| Quincy who recommended Honey to Den
rett as a criminal lawyer after bennett had
offered Quincy Il retainer to look after the
case of his friend. who had stolen "a mil
lion dollars worth of securities.
A Stricter Vigilance.
State Bank Examiner A. c. Judson eX
pressed the opinion today that one result
of the case would be a stricter vigilance on
the part of trust company employers over
their men. Mr.. Judson thinks that there
will be a general movement among the
heads of such companies to change things
SO that low-salaried clerks cannot have
such easy access to millions in securities.
The state banking department has not as
yet made any examination into the analrs
of the Trust Company of America, and Will
not do so until the present examination be-
ing conducted by an audit company ana
orders of the trustees is completed.

A Why Question.

The exposition authorities will not per-
NIT the express companies to deliver pre-
paid stuff inside the grounds unless each
time a wagon load is sent in an admission
fee is paid FOR the wagon and for the
Criyer and assistants. The alternative Of
fered by the exposition authorities is that
the express companies buy space for II
building at 10 cents a square foot The
companies have refused TO listen to either
proposition up to date and that's one OF
the answers 10 the big why question The
freight tie-up has resulted simply from a
lack OF trackage facilities and la Dor Many
freight cars have been standing inside the
grounds FOR weeks waiting to be unloaded
Men are scarce and besides the exposition
company requires deposit of 81 from an
exhibitor or concessionaire for every man
brought into the grounds for car unloading
purposes. The combination has resulted dis
astrously. but promises Of speedy reform

All the Big Stunts Were Over and IL
Paid to Stay in the House-f

BUT IT WILL BE DIFFERENT
Exposition is Simply Going Through
the Experience That Every Other
State Show Does and the Pros
poets Are Great, After Little
While, all Say.

Bad weather and other things
made it rather unfavorable at the
big Jamestown show today, but
everything, according to the adj
vices of a staff correspondent,
points out that it will i'll the course
of a very short time be one of the
most artistic and enjoyable exhibit
tons in the annals of such enter
tainments.
Special From Sthn Correspondent
NORFOLK, Va, April 21-The weather
man certainly has been kind to everybody
Yesterday was simply perfect. today just
the other extreme. But it would have made
heaps and heaps of difference yesterday.
and today it didn't matter a little bit. The
big stunts are over for time. Thirty
eight thousand visitors had to get into the
exposition grounds yesterday, and it is esti-
matd that 10000 saw at least portion
of the ceremonies. 1t is very doubtful if
more than 1000 went through the gates to-
day A raw, wet windy, chilly day and
"a big show that isn't complete don't make
"a good drawing card combination.
But one thing is certain. When this ex-
position is finally put into shape for bust
ness it will be probably the most success
full artisticaly and, perhaps, otherwise,
that was ever pulled off in the United
States. bar none But whether that antici-
pated finishing touch will be put on in one
month or three is problem too intricate
TO solve off-hand. 1t is admittedly all up
TO the officials of the exposition company.
And they are beginning to realize it, too.
AS an Indication of the immensely of the
task which confronts them, it may be
stated that today, twenty-four hours after
the opening of the exposition, there are be-
tween 200 and 800 carloads of freight and
about a dozen carloads of express matter
standing on the terminal company's tracks
outside of the exposition grounds.

The Senator's Silent Campaign.

In their sober moments, even the Taft
republicans, who are claiming great things
for their candidate, wonder whether after
all he could marshal majority of the re-
publicans who could be counted upon to
come out and vote at primary election, no
matter when it is held The week has been
one of waiting for the coming OF Secre-
tary Taft. On neither side were there any
spectacular developments. Not word has
come from Senator Foraker's side of the
contest AS during last week, he has been
going ahead with his conferences with his
friends in all parts Of the state. When he
makes an open movement it will no doubt
be worth noting.

In a way it was fortunate proposition

they say, and as much earlier as possible.
Blu. how to get such primary, with Sena-
tor Foraker in complete control of the
state machine, is the problem that the
Taft management confronts at the outset.
Mr.. Vorys claims that the party is now
almost stampeded for Taft. The Taft
newspapers are daily claiming county after
county for him, and it is under the influ-
ence of these wholesale claims that they
would like to have the question submitted.
The wiseacres say that with the passing of
time some of this illusion will pass away.
1t is even now beginning to appear that this
county, known as the center of the Taft
organization, is not certain to vote for him
for presidential candidate, even if the pri-
mary election were to be held at once.

Hennessy counsel for bennett, visited his
client in the Tombs during the morning.
AS he left the prison Lawyer Hennessy was
asked concerning the long statement that
bennett had made in the Office of Assistant
District Attorney Murphy on Friday. He
said that he had advised his client to make
this statement. Asked If bennett had been
promised immunity for making this state
ment, Mr.. Hennessy said: well, when
was in the district attorneys office some
years ago as an assistant, immunity was
often granted. I suppose the immunity
proposition is still in vogue"
No Third Person.
Just what statements bennett made
could not be learned. 1t was said on very
good authority that he had not implicated a
third person. 1t was said that the author

Ordinary Methods for Treating Ca.

Recent statistics showing an in

HOW A SHOW HELPS BUSINESS
1t Takes Vast Amount OF Meat to
Feed the Animals,

That it does local merchants some
good to have big show like the
Sells Floto shows to come to town
Is amply evidenced by the large con-
tracts made by local dealers. 1t
takes money to run a great show,
and it takes vast amount of ma
terial to feed the employees and ami
mails.
Show people live we'll, and only
the best of everything is used in the
com missary department. That big
show leaves a liberal lump of money
in city at times is evident from the
contracts made here. To local
fee firm the mammoth order of l.
900 pounds of coffee was given
From an equally we'll known gro
Gerry house $500 worth of groceries
was contracted. One hundred and
fifty pairs of shoes will be added to
the commissary wagon, three car
casses Of beef came from local
butcher. as well as 500 pounds of
animal meat. Several hundred loaves
of bread feed the hungry maws of
the circus people daily, and these,
too. come from local bakers. Seventy
five quarts of milk from the dairies
Eight tons of hay, one hundred and
fifteen bushels of oats, two tons of
straw and host of other necessaries
were purchased in the city. All told
nearly 800 will be left here as a
result of the advent of the Sells-Flo-
TO Shows. One of the busiest men in
connection with the show is Peter J.

give satisfaction. It is the only cure
under a guarantee to cost nothing
unless It cures, but Hood & Curtin
have so much faith in it's power to
cure all catarrhal troubles that they
are willing to take the risk, so il

ALL AWAIT BIG CIRCUS.
Interest Increases rs the Great Day
Approaches


As the day of the big circus ap
proaches the interest in it increases
and when the mammoth tents are
pitched in Waxahachie. Friday, Nov
/, they will probably be filled to
their limit.
Since last seen in this section, the
Forepaugh and Sells Bros circus
has practically doubled in dimensions
and improved in proportion. With
the distinction of now being the
greatest in america and with so
many novelties to present, there is
no question that the day will be the
greatest in the history OF the city.
An entirely new parade, with its
costly outfit. the million dollar fire
drama, the great Spessardy trained
bear act just from Europe, the hui
man-like chimpanzee featured in the
menaserie, the hand walking Of the
great Zobedie, for the first time in
and the first appearance
of Rebecca Daniels, Europes most
beautiful and accomplished horse
alone are more ex-
elusive novelties than all other cir
cuses in America can offer.
The parade will take place at 10
o'clock in the morning; the after
noon performance will begin at 2
0 clock, and the evening show at 3
o'clock.
