is STRONGER CANDIDATE
than GOVERNOR JOHNSON
And May Give Mr.. Bryan the Fight
of His Life at the Denver conven-
= tlon-Gray's Ability and Integrity is
Not Denied.

Washington, April 14.-Judge Geo.
Gray's boom for the Democratic pom-
ination for president was formerally
launched today by the Delaware
state convention: The selection of
a delegation pledged to the Delaware
Jurist was little more than matter
of form and the proposed action Of
the convention has already had its
effect in the national capital. Gray
headquarters have been established
here and a Gray campaign leader is
already in process of formation. For
the present, the efforts of the Gray
boomers will be confined largely to
New York, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey the New England States and
the South.
Supporters of the Delaware judge
declare that he will have the support
of both capital and labor, in case he
should secure the nomination. 1t is
asserted that his adjudication as
chairman of the anthracite strike
commission has made him the firm
friend of the union miners, and that
other labor organizations also favor
his nomination. Judge Gray's sue
cessful fight against the force bill in
the United States Senate is alleged to
have won for him the support of
thousands of southern Democrats.
From present appearances, Judge
Gray will likely prove more formid-
able opponent to Bryan than is Gov
ernor Johnson. 1t is declared by the
anti-Bryanties that the East and
Southeast have lacked only strong
leader. in order to successfully revolt
against the nomination of Bryan, and
that Judge Gray's entrance into the
political arena will likely herald :
Democratic uprising that will spread
from Maine to the Gulf. 1t is not ex
pected that it will be possible to ere
ate much Gray sentiment in the West
Friends of Bryan are not alarmed
at the candidacy of Judge Gray anC
discount the statement of the Della
ware mans supporters. 1t DIS pointet
out that many of the delegates to tn
New York Democratic State -conven
ton today are pledged to Bryan, de
spite the fact that that State is tn
center of the opposition to the Ne
braskan, who has not received tn
support of a single influential metro
politan newspaper. The Bryan men
however, do not deny the ability MOI
Integrity of Judge Gray. They de
clare that his name is being used IL
an attempt to disrupt the party an.
that when he realizes the fact, h.
will withdraw from the race AM
leave Bryan a clear field.

OVERHEAD WIRES
MUST Be REMOVED
City Council Passes Ordinance
Ruling Against Trac-
ton Company.
IA LOOPHOLE is SEALED.
PENALTY ATTACHED iF FEED
WIRES ARE NOT TAKEN DOWN
BEFORE APRIL-coMPLAIN is
EXPECTED.

An ordinance was introduced in
council last evening requiring the
Terre Haute, indianapolis & Eastern
to remove the high tension feed wires
IT. has placed on the Main street troll
ley poles. The company is given until
April l to remove these wires. After
that date should the wires still re-
main overhead penalty of S. for each
day they remain up is provided. This
| ordinance was advanced TO its second
reading and will probably be unani-
mously passed at the next council
meeting.
1t is necessary for the city TO pass
i this ordinance if it is desired TO have
the feed wires placed under ground.
as the removal of such wires is not
provided for in the Main street pole
ordinance to penalize companies who
left their Main street wires overhead.
City Attorney T. J. Study stated
| last evening that he expected the com
pany to litigate@ before consenting to
| remove its feed wires as compliance
with the ordinance introduced last ev-
ening would mean the expense of
placing the wires in conduits. as the
city will not permit these wires TO be
placed in any street or alley.
1t is probable that the company
will complain that the ordinance
shows discrimination, pointing to the
fact that the high tension wires the
city aEd-the Richmond Light. Heat and
| Power company formerly had strung
| TO poles on Main street. were not
placed underground, but were remoy-
ed to poles in adjacent alleys.
The city claimed that it had the au-
thority to take such action on the
ground that a municipality could not
| legislate against itself. but insisted
that the high tension wires of the
Light, Heat & Power company be plac-
| ed under ground. This company fiat
/ ly refused 10 take such action unless
| the city setsthe example. The board
| of public works then dismounted from

pany to remove it's Main street wires

Developments in China are expect
ed TO bring early to head the nego-

Despite official Genials, il is learned
from high authority in Tokyo that
the Washington government is giving
this matter active consideration. Prob
ably it will take the form of diploma
tic exchanges along the lines OF the
suggestions made by Viscount Ao<i To
President Roosevelt, which the latter
heartily approved.
These are, first, that America and
Japan shall mutually respect each 9TH
ers territorial posse ssions and their
interests; second. the recognition of
mutual rights in the Pacific as high
way of commerce; third, the preserva-
ton of China's territorial integrity and
mutual guarantee of the open door for
equal commercial opportunity.
Viscount Aokis recall was due to
his advancing these propositions TO
