RICH MAN SHOT
 IN HIS OWN HOME.
Accident, Says Secretary, Who
 Handled the Weapon.

Newark, N. J., Sept. 17.-Under cir cumstances which the police are inves- tigating John Leonard, retired iron and steel merchant and a millionaire, was killed in his home in Montclair. A revolver brought into the Leonard home by Walter c. Phillips of New York, MT. Leonard's secretary, was discharged, and the bullet entered the heart of the aged millionaire. MT. Phillips says he found the pistol.
 MT. Phillips was the only witness of the shooting. He says it was acci- dental, that he pulled the revolver from his pocket to show 1t to his employer, that Mfr Leonard reached forward to take 1t and that the explosion followed.
 Chief of Police Henry Gallagher of Montclair locked Phillips up in the Montclair jail. He was brought here today for examination before County Prosecutor Mott.
 Phillips, who, lives in New York and is about forty-five years old, had been in the habit of going to Montclair ire quently to attend to the correspond ence of MT. Leonard. He was one oi several secretaries employed in the vast business interests of Mir Leon ard, but. he was believed to have had more confidential relations with his rich employer, than the others.
 | Phillips went to the Leonard house in response to message from his en pIoyer. The secretary got of a Lacka wanna train. at Glen Ridge and start ed to walk to the Leonard home. Or his way there, according to the story he told the police, he found pistol or the road.
 "Mr. Leonard was sitting in an arm chair when I entered his room," con tinued MT. Phillips, land he gave me cordial greeting. After few min utes' conversation took out the re volver and told him how I had found 1t on the road. MT. Leonard wanted tt look at It., and he reached out and took hold of the revolver. As he did 30 fl went off"

A writer in American Industries makes plea for business men in of- flee. He says Tn many ways the peo- pie of the country would be benefited by inducing men who have practical experience in the management of great industrial, financial and com mercial enterprises to become candi- dates for public office. They know economic questions better than do the politicians. Their trade connec- tions give them a larger concern in such issues, and furnish them with a greater inducement for studying them thoroughly. Moreover, busi- ness men in office are less likely than are the nominees of the politicians to be stampeded by demagogues, or to be frightened by the crack of the boss's whip. They would be far less likely to be influenced by the wiles of the boodler. More than the aver age man they are conservative. The personal stake which they have in the stability of industry and finance has compelled them to get some ac- quaintance with the various political panaCeas which agitators, from time to time. have urged. and with the different nostrums which ignorant, timid or careless legislatures have, at one time and another. enacted.

Among, the most important changes in the diplomatic circle this winter will be that caused by the death of Baron von Sternberg. the German ambassador, says Wash ington writer. His successor has not yet been named, but there is general regret over the loss of the von Stern bergs, who were quite popular. The baroness was a Kentucky girl, rather famous for her beauty in spite of the fact that she was lame. The baron suffered from cancer of the face which made it necessary for him to wear bandages about his left cheek and neck for couple of years before his death. The baroness is returning to this city to remove her personal effects from the embassy prior to the coming of the new ambassador and it is said that she will live here per manently, though if she has decided to do so it must have been without much reflection. To be at one time the wife of the German ambassador with a great house and liberal in come will make very painful the in evitable neglect she will experience as the widow of a man soon forgot ten, who must live on the S3,500 pension accorded her by the German government.

Candidate Bryan dismisses the Hearst charges with a simple denial of course. That is all that is re- quired, but his following up of Can- didate Taft is perfectly proper. Both are seeking an election to the presi- dency. If the republican candidate is telling untruths or in any way trying to show that he would be a better man for the place, or that the platform he is standing on will be better for the country, it is Bry- ans plain duty to combat him, and show wherein he is wrong. There is no reason at all,. why Bryan should pay any further attention to Hearst while there is good politics and good sense in his keeping Taft where he belongs and making him confine himself to facts and truths when he speaks about Bryan and the democratic party.

reason for the doubt. Ex-President

reason for the doubt Ex-President Cleveland was not one who .habitual- ly thrust his opinions upon the pub7 lie without invitation. Nor was the literary construction off the docu- ment in harmony with his usual style; favorite words in his vocabu- lary are missing from it. It looks very like forgery. Bridgeport Farmer.
 Efforts of the Chicago public school authorities to suppress the se- cret fraternities are being met with defiant attitude on the part of fra ternity members. Many of them are refusing to sign the pledges present. ed as a condition of being admitted to enrolment, some of them are threatening to appeal to the courts, and most of them observed the open ing day of school by gathering con- spicuously in front of their frater- nifty houses and smoking pipes as teachers and other pupils passed along to school.-Norwich Record.
 Booker T. Washington is quoted as denying the report that he would stump the south for MT Taft. We rather imagine that MT Washington will stick to this idea. No matter what his personal preferences or what influence he may be able to ex- ert in a private way, it would not do for him to mix politics with his work. Too much depends on him to take the risk of losing the friends he has been able to keep by re- training from such things. MT Wash ihgton is needed in the educational rather than the political field He has his hands full in teaching those of his race how. to be self support ing and respected members of so- ciety.-Meriden Record.

"No one now fears that MT Bry- ans election would provoke an industrial, commercial and financial cataclysm." Thus declares the ul- tra conservative New York Herald. It voices the sentiment of hundreds of business men in the east who are suffering from the panic of 1907, for which the republican party, de. spite the fact that they have been in complete control, of -.the federal government for 10 years are trying to dodge esponsibility,, As MT Bry- an. in his address on the tariff at Des Moines, expressed it, "the re- publican party had an opportunity to- do everything that they wanted to do and to. undo, everything that needed to be undone, and We were under such high tariff that even Secretary Taft admitted the neces- sity of revision. The panic was so bad that banks felt it necessary to do something that they had never done before, namely, to arbitrarily limit the amount of money that de- positors could draw on their own accounts. Former Secretary Shaw says that the, stringency of 1907 was the severest the world ever witness ed With, this panic fresh in his mind, is 1t not strange that Mir Taft should argue that his election is necessary to prevent panic? How the business world regards MT Bry- ans election is evidenced in the comment of Nathan Straus, head of one of the largest department stores in the country and chairman of the business mans national democratic committee. MT Straus says: q say confidently that there is no menace to our returning prosperity in the election and inauguration of MT Bryan. I can plainly see that change of administration will be helpful in the very lines where prog ress is being made toward normal trade conditions, upon which the welfare. of commercial and indus trial interests both depend. It is an ideal time for such a change"

of the measures advocated, The granting of franchises without an adequate return is one of the things the platform would prohibit. It asks for a public service commits sion and fifth congressional dis trict, which would do away with the position now held by Congressman Lilley, and which is the cause of most of his troubles. The whole platform Is full of good things, and will have tendency to draw the independent voters to the democratic party as we'll as the republicans who have already made up their minds to go fishing on election day.

The democratic state convention finished its business so quickly yes- terday that it surprised the men who ran the convention at New Haven last week. It goes to r show that there was no lack of competent can didates, as we were told so many times by those who made the wish father to the thought. After the delegates came together it did not take them long to settle on a win ming candidate, the man who was ac- ceptable to the delegates will be ac- ceptable to the democrats of the state. Judge A. Heaton Robertson is son of Connecticut soil. His life for the past 5S years is an open book
 He has been honored repeatedly by his fellow men, and the indications now are that he will be given still higher honors. Judge Robertson was candidate for the governorship in 1904, but the republican landslide of that year put him out of the run- ming. Judge Robertson comes from an old New Haven family, son of John B. Robertson, mayor in 1880, and grandson of Abram Heaton, an old-time merchant He was born in New Haven in 1850, was graduated from Yale, academic department, 1872, and Columbia university, law department, 1874; received degree of A. M., Trinity college, 1894; ad- mitted to the bar, 1875; alderman, 1878, 1882; aide on Governor In gersoll's staff; representative to the general assembly, 1880 and 1892. state senator, 1885, 1887; probate judge, 1887 to 1895; corporation counsel, 1889 to 1901. -...
