eoMPERs RoAsTs JUDGES.
Declares Courts are Under Corporate
Influence.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-In an ap-
peal made to laboring men, whom ne
styies. the lovers of human liberty,
Samuel Gompers. president Of the
American Federation of Labor. yester-
dav called upon the trade unionists
Of the country to give careful tro"ght
to the political questions of the day
before casting their vote at the NO
vember election.
The appeal Is made. Mr. Gompers
said. in order to place the issues
plainly before the people. from labor
ing mans viewpoint.
The facts are" he says. that the
judiciary. induced by corporations ana
the trusts. and protected by the Re-
publican party, is, step by step, de-
stroying government by law and
substituting therefor a government
BY judges, who determine what. IN
their opinion is evidence: who. In
their opinion, is guilty. and what. IN
their opinion, the punishment shah
be. 1t is sought to make OF tnes
Judges irresponsible despots. and. by
controlling them. using this despotism
in the interest Of corporate power.
This virus and poison not only has
attacked the judicial branch Of the
government. but in several instances
has entered upon the legislative held
u; making Law which may be enforced
by equity process-that Is. the judge
Is BY law authorized to disregard all
accepted rules Of procedure and evi-
dence. to dispense with jury triai.

ion of what is right

II YOU should ask an authority on
campaign buttons how many buttons
were being manufactured daily he
would tell you at least half a million.
This he would consider a conserva-
tive estimate steady. cheerful pro-
duction every minute of about three
hundred and forty smiling little Tafts
and grimly meditative little Bryans,
figures a writer in the Boston Tran
script.
There are three remarkable things
about campaign bu;tons-that SO
many. many millions of them are put
in circulation, that SO few Of them
are visible to the casual observer. and
that the process Of getting them on
the market involves prophetic quail
ty that actually picks the candidates
before the conventions have nominal
ed them. On the day that Taft was
nominated several million Taft but
tons were delivered in Chicago. On
the day that Bryan was nominated
several million Bryan buttons we're de-
liyered in Denver. A large share OF
these buttons had been MANUFACTURED
as far away as New Jersey. Roughly
speaking they were worth about half
a cent apiece at wholesale and their
total yaIue reached somewhere In the
neighborhood Of $4,000 or $50.o00-
which NAV well serve as a modest
hin, at the financial aspect OF this
apparently trivial business.
Setting on the Nominee.
Thousands AMI thousands OF dollars
in short are thus practically vageret
on the opinion OF a few individuals as
to the outcome Of the conventions.
The largest company behind these
eiaht or nine million smiling little
Tafts and grimly meditative little
Bryan guessed right. But some of the
other button people guessed wrong.

Two Strong Parties Take Part In
Speculation, Apparently With op.
pesins Acknowledgements Without
Advance Of Prices Wins.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-There ap-
peared to have been some conflict OF
purpose between at least two strong
parties in the speculation today al
though theip operations tended 10
some mutual advantage. In the one
case the support OF prices against
pressure without any attempt to bring
about an advance, seemed to meet the
desired object In the other case,
there was an aggressive marking up
of prices which seemed designed to
incite a public following in the mar
ket The lifting process was almost
wholly confined to groups of low pric-
ed railroad and industrial stocks. In
many of which there are important
or dominant holdings by Identical
interests Their starting upwards
served as a check rather than stimu-
lation to a show of strength in the
general market The usual leaders
of the market showed resistance to
the reaction. and seemed to balk at
cry active advance. The attitude
OF reserve thus indicated towards
present active speculation was ais
cribed to a remnant apprehension re-
garding the political outlook In
Europe, to some contraction in money
market supplies and to the purpose
to await the passing of the coming
election.
Money On call commanded maxi
mum rate higher than at any time
last week. while bank loans were In
process of rapid expansion to take
up foreign sales Of securities.
Foreign operations in the stock
market were not important today.
There was an easing of discount
rates today in London and Paris. The
threatened reopening Of the labor dis

an unsatisfactory development and
caused a decline in the price of cot

EVIDENCE OF NOTARY

Though appearing as a Government
witness in the Hyde -Dimond-
Schneider land fraud conspiracy case,
Thomas s. Burns. notary Of San Fran
cisco, today gave testimony favorable
20 the defense. when recalled to the
stand. Through this and other witnesses
the prosecution is endeavOring TO bring
out the fact that a number Of appli-
cations to which Burns affixed his jsrat
were made by Benson and Hyde ard en-
tered under fictitious names.
Burns defective memory spoiled the
Governments case. He was unable TO
recollect whether OF not the sIgners OF
applications appeared before him per-
sonally. The strongest setback 70 the
prosecutions contention was his de-
claration that he had taken the oath
20 applications from Elizabeth Dimond,
who. up to this time. has been claimed
by the Government to be a fictitious per-
son.
Burns identified his signature on n
number Of applications in evidence for
the Government. and at the mention OF
some names, was able 10 state Une per

Another alleged fictitious person, -"
Ray DOnnelly, appeared before Burns
and made oath 20 an application. accord
