That Troublesome
Cocktail Incident
atLast Explained
Chicago Church Paper As
serts That a Meddlesome
Woman Neighbor Was
to Blame For 1t

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. 1.-THE Interior,
the Chicago organ Of the Presbyterian
church, in It's current issue explains
the cocktail incident at the residence
Of Vice President Fairbanks, and
gives the distinguished Indianian a
clean bill Of character. Incidentally
the blame for the disagreeable affair
is placed on the shoulders Of wom-
an.
'The Interior is able to say on the
highest authority'-to quote the-pomp-
GUS formula so,much affected by Eng
|lish tournals-that Vice President
Fairbanks was not responsible for the
appearance of cocktails on his table
when he entertained President Roose-
welt at his indianapolis home," says
theh PRESBYTERIAN publication.
eighbor Comes In and "Helps.,
"A lady living near the Fairbanks
home, and an intimate friend Of the
family, was about the house on that
day. assisting Mrs. Fairbanks in the
arrangements for the great company
to be entertained. When the house
and the yard were already full Of
guests and the attention Of Mr.. and
Mrs Fairbanks Was occupied with
greetings to the visitors, this lady en-
tered the dining-room and noted that
there. were no drinkables on the table.
in her Judgment it was impossible
to entertain the president Of the UNI
ted States flttingly without some bev-
erage furnished to give the spread the
tone to which she believed he was ac-
| customed and on her own responsible.
Iity she undertook to repair the sup
posed omission. She hastily ordered
the cocktails up from her husbands
club. The club steward prepared
them, and an automobile brought them
to the house in great haste.
"The first that Mr.. Fairbanks knew
Of the violation of his Methodist hab-
its was when he same to the table
with his guests. He did not touch
the glass at his own plate.

neighbors have refused to let the vice

New York, Oct, 11.-Four days,
nineteen hours, and fifty-two minutes
out from Queenstown, with every
Transatlantic speed record in her
possession the majestic Cunard liner
Lusitania swept by Sandy Hook light
snip at LII a. M, today, and after a
pause off the bar to await daylight,
steamed slowly up the harbor to re-
ceive the recognition of her right to
the title of Queen Of the sea. Her
average speed was 23.99 nautical miles
per hour and her longest daily run
was GIT nautical miles.
Translated into land miles her speed
average for the run was 27.60 miles
an hour.
Vindlcation for Turbines.
Her achievement is a triumph for
British shipbuilding and sailors and
may mark the passing of the old fash
loned reciprocating engine and the be,
ginning Of the universal installation
of turbines which have made 1t pos
sible for the ship to carry all records
by the board.
The snip exceeded ven the expecta-
tfons of Its captain, whose last wire

Chadwick, the Cleveland, O.. woman
who was sentenced to ten years i'm
prisonment for bank wrecking, died
at the Ohio penitentiary at 1915
o'clock last night.
The end came as the result of a
general breakdown, Mrs. Chadwick
having been seriously i'll for several
weeks. She never had been we'll
woman since the trial in 1905, the
nervous strain at that time bringing
on complete collapse,s
She had not been able to do the
heavy work to which she was sen
fenced and recently she lost almost
her entire power of sight. From that
time on she had been confined to the
prison hospital and had rapidly grown
weaker and weaker until all hopes
were abandoned a few days ago.
Her son, Emil Hoover, was sum
moned from Cleveland by telegraph
today. and her two sisters. also Of
Cleveland, were notified of her seri-
GUS condition. All day yesterday the
prison physicians administered
strychnine and other powerful stimu-
lants were used to keep her alive UNI
til her relatives could arrive, but the
effort was in vain, as none of them
was at the bedside when she died
after lying in comatose condition
for some hours previous.

Morocco indicate the early collapse OF
the rebellion against the Sultan If
Abdul. Aziz headed by his brother
Mouley Hafid is the pretender. These
advices say the tribes that first raj

BRYAN OPENS HIS
CAMPAIGN TODAY
IN SPEECH AT FAIR
NEBRAskAN WILL ANSWER At.
z .TAcks MADE UPON HIM IN
SOUTHERN PRESS RINEHART.
SAYS BRYAN WILL, RUN,

Richmond, Va, Oct. III William
j. Bryan arrived in Richmond today
to deliver an address at the Virginia
State Fair. On the advice of close po-
litical associates with whom he has
recently conferred, Mr.. Bryan, it is
understood, will make his address on
the issues of the day, and in sense
the speech will be curtain-raiser for
the 1908 campaign.
According to those in position to
know it has been Mr.. Bryan's inten-
tion all along to defer the formal
opening of his campaign until near
the end of the year. The activity Of
President Roosevelt, Vice President
Fairbanks and other republican lead
ers, has brought about change in
the plans of Mr.. Bryan. however. His
friends, have urged him to declare
himself at once upon the political is-
sues Of the day. They have impressed
upon the Nebraskan the necessity for
immediate action in view of the re-
cent attacks upon him in the southern
states of the Atlantic seaboard.
To Answer Attacks,
Acting upo ntheir advice, Mr.. Bryan
decided to appear In person and an
swer the attacks made upon him.
After filing his Richmond date he will
make visit at number Of other
places in Virginia and North Caro-
ina. He will then go north, stopping
en- route for conference in Washing
ton and later will be heard in num-
Der of cities in New York. He will re-
main in the east for some weeks ac-
cordnig to schedule and will fill num-
ber of dates in New England.
Bryan viii be Candidate.
Des Comes, Oct IL William j.
Bryan will be the democratic candi-
date for president. George F. Rine-
hart, editor of the Democrat Chronicle,
says So and he knows. for he is Bry-
ans personal friend and the voice
piece of Bryan In Iowa.
In his paper, Mr.. Rinehart has an
editorial asserting that Bryan is a can
didate. and also that Roosevelt Is a
candidate, and that the latter is using
Taft as a stalking horse. In part he
says:
Gov. John A. Johnson of Minnesota,
in recent interview stated that he
would not be candidate for the pres
idency and added that he had known
for some months that Mr.. Bryan would
be candidate,
A local paper in Minnesota is quot
ed in this issue as stating without
hesitation that it knows Mr.. Bryan to
be a candidate. In view of these
statements we could not be accused
Of betraying confidence If we state
that we have long known that Mr.
Bryan would be candidate, but we
were willing to wait until the proper
time for the announcement to come
from Mr. Bryan himself.
