The Bitter Bit.

An old Lowlander had been persist
emily asked by his son, who was. doing
very well in London. to pay him a
visit Having at length decided TO
comply, he spent a fortnight in the
metropolis and duly returned north to
tell the tale. A pompous person invit-
ed him to his house soon after the old
mans return, with view to having
some amusement at the latter's ex-

The clerk turned back to the desk

Then to "Mr. Johnson's" dismay he
was quietly seized by two men. who
seemed TO come up from the floor on
either side of him and who asked him
very politely, but with firmness, to
leave the hotel at once.

ANSWER OF INDIANA CLUB TO PROPOSITION OF J TEMPLE

Believes This Would be in the Interest of the "square DeaN--Nebraskan Has Nothing Further to Say in the Matter-Against q Second Term for
 Anyone-President UnduIy Excited
 Over "AIleged S5,OO0,OOO Raised by
 Wall Street to Prevent His Election"
 Evansville, Ind, April 12.-The Hen dricks club, the largest democratic or ganization in the state, while celebrat- ing the birthday of Thomas Jefferson tonight, adopted the following nd tel egraphed the same to John Temple Graves, of Atlanta, Ga:
 '"Tv1e Hendricks club of Evansville, believes that, in the interest of a 'squar deal,' Roosevelt should nominate Bryan for president in 1908, as there is now no doubt that Bryan was beaten in 1896 by the contribution of money by insurance companies, railroad compa- nies and tariff protected monopolies, and that President Roosevelt knows this to be a fact, and that Mryan in 1896 stood on the platform on which Roosevelt now stands on railroad regu- latlon'
 Roanoke, Va, April 12.--William Jen- nings Bryan in an interview to-day was asked for an expression on the suggestion made by John Temple Graves, of Atlanta at banquet on Wednesday night at Chattanooga, that Bryan nominate Roosevelt for presi dent. MT. Bryan said:
 T said at the banquet in Chattanoo- ga all that at present can say. then said: As at present advised cannot see that it is my duty to nominate MT. Roosevelt In both of my campaigns I stated that I would not be candidate for a. sacand term if elected and as I have endeavored to secure a constitu- tional amendment making president ineligible for second term could not conscientiously urge the renomination of MT. Roosevelt for a second term even if there were no other reasons"
 In speaking of the Harriman-Roose- welt episode, Mir. Bryan said;
 "The president seems unduly excited over the alleged $5,O0O,OOO raised by Wall street to prevent his reelection. If Wall street is opposed to any doc- Urine held by President Roosevelt it is certainly not republican doctrine. When we came up against the corrup- tion fund of 1896 we found no more arr dent champion of these special interests than MT. Roosevelt"
 MT. Bryan spoke here tonight under the auspices of the Daughters of the Confederacy and met here his daughter Grace, who is a student at Rollins in- stitute and whom he had not seen since last fall"

San Francisco, April 12.-At the re- sumption to-day of the trial of Abra- ham Ruef for extortion Special Prose- cutor Johnson made the following mo- ton:
 ''The people move the court to issue a special venire for such number of jurors as the court may deem essential for the purpose of completing the panel in this case. In this connection the people challenge the sheriff and the coroner of the city and county of San Francisco on the ground that each of them is disqualified by bias, prejudice and personal interest, and could not act fairly or impartially in this pro- ceeding. We ask further for the ap- pointment of an elisor to execute such orders as the court may make"

MORSE WILL NOT GET
 N. E. NAVIGATION CO.
NO GROUND WHATEVER FOR RE- PORTED SALE AND
 TRANSFER.

Situation Quite the Reverse--How
 MiscOnceptiOn Might Have Arisen
 Steps Just Taken to Merge With the
 N. Y., N. H. GS H.-Part of Plan of
 President Mellen for Consolidating
 Not Only the Marine Interests of the
 Steam Corporation, but Also the EIec-
 tric Under One Management.
 While there is ground for the state- ment that since the directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company rejected the Morse offer of s2O,OOO,OOO for the New England Navigation company's properties, MT. Morse renewed the negotiations, and asked that a price be named, it can be stated now upon the highest author ity that there is not the slightest ground for the report of the sale and coming transfer of the New England Navigation company's properties to him. In fact, the situation is quite the reverse.
 
 have undoubtedly arisen from steps which have just been taken to merge the New England Navigation interests with those of the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford Railroad company The preliminaries to this merger in the form of fiscal summaries and reports were of nature to lead to the false rumof.
 This merger with the New Haven cor poration of the New England Naviga- tion company's interests, in formal of foial and legal shape, is a part of the plan of President Mellen for consoli- dating not only the marine interests of the steam corporation, but also the elec- trlc interests in the street railays un- der one management. In this way he hopes to secure greater economy and efficiency of administration in the whole New York, New Haven and Hartford system.
 It is probable that the next step in the important and extensive consoli- dation of the various properties of the New Haven company will be the mer- ger of the interests of the Consolidated railway, which is the holding company of the steam corporation in Connecti- cut, and that later will come the for maj merger of all the street railway properties in Rhode Island also. The latter are subdivided among several holding companies. and will require considerable legal disentanglement
 As the merger of the New England Navigation company with the steam corporation binds it more tightly to the latter and blends more closely the in terests of the two companies, the ef- feet is to make any sale of the New England Navigation corporations in- terests to MT. Morse more remote than ever, and negatives all present reports of sale.
 Along with the consolidation of the electric and marine properties will also go as fast as possible the merger of the New Haven company's subsidiary steam lines, following out the policy which President Mellen has steadily pursued. A high officer of the New Haven company has recently stated. that year or two more will find all the interests of the system merged, ex- cept two or three of the large Massa- chusetts lines now under lease.

APPEAL FOR KELSEY.
Counsel Thinks Governor Hughes Mis-
 taken About Man.


 Albany, April 12.-In an eloquent speech lasting nearly two hours Former Supreme Court Justice Edward w. Hatch, late to-day before the senate judiciary committee, concluded the ap- peal of Otto Kelsey against removal from the office of the state superiaten- dent of insurance. recommended to the state senat on February 20 by Cover nor Hughes. At the conclusion of Judge Hatch's speech the hearing was closed. Probably no definite action will be taken by the committee before its regular meeting next Wednesday.
 History tells,' said Judge Hatch in his speech, "of Pontius Pilate bringing forth man and saying; I tell you find no fault in him. Behold the man. "'Yet the cry of the populace was 'Crucifyl Cruelty Him.
 "The overwhelming character of the proof in this case must show" con tinued Judge Hatch, "that the super intendent of insurance has discharged his duties to tn letter, and fulilld ev- cry requirement. of the law,
 9Th governor was mistaken-honestly no doubt, but nevertheless mistaken with regard to the administration of Mir Kelsey in the department of insur- ance.'
 Judge Hatch called attention to the omission by Governor Hughes in his message to the senate of any mention of the fire insurance situation and de- clared that the executive made no eff fort to familiarize himself with the ad- ministration of the department
