10000 GERMANS IN WAR MANEU YERS Alsace Lorraine Again Scene of Warlike But Bloodless Operations of Kaiser's
 Troops, KAISER GRAND UMPIRE Location of Annual Practice Worst District In Empire for Typhoid
 Few Foreign Officers
 Attend.
KAISER GRAND UMPIRE

St, Johann, Saar, Sept. 6-The grand maneuvers of the German imperial army will begin tomorrow, Long before daybreak vast masses of horse, foot, artillery will be moving up and down the steep slopes of Asace- Lorraine, the bodies engaged being the Fifteenth Army corps stationed at Strassburg, and the sixteenth Army corps, station ct at Metz, the total number of troops reaching more than 10000,
 As far as Is known the theatre of war will be the hilly country between Saar Bruecken and the French from tier, and It Is understood that the maneuvers will conclude with opera tions over the scene of the bloody bat tie of Spicheren Heights at the gates of Saar Bruecken, where innumerable graves sprnkled over the hills are the witness of the awful carnage of that day.
 The Emperor will be supreme umpire, as usual, with three chief umpires un- der him.
 The emperor is staying at the castle near Metz, but the crown prince, Prince Regent Lultpold of Bavaria, Major General Leonard Wood. U S A, and Lieut. -Col John r. Wsher, military attache of the American embassy at Berlin, together with the foreign mlli- tary missions and attaches, are stop ping at saar Bruecken which also Is the headquarters of the general staff
 Owing probably to the locality sec lected for the maneuyers, the number of foreign officers attending this year Is not nearly so large as on former oc- casions
 Captain Frederick r Russell, of the United states army medical corps, is attending the maneuvers to study the German system of inoculation against typhoid fever Alsace- Lorraine Is the worst district in the German empire for this disease. and the fact that such large bodies of troops are now allowed to operate here is attributed to the success of the German prophy- tactic.

BRYAN HANDICAPPED Candidate Rejoices Over Re publican Adoption of His
 Methods. AND DRAWS A LESSON Says Things He Used to Re Criticised for Favorlng Arc Advocated
 by Opponents.

Falr View, Lincoln, Neb,, Sept 8.--- William J. Bryan left here at o'clock to-day over the Rock Island railroad for Chicago and thus began three weeks campaign tour which will car ry him into the Mdle West. the East ern states and back through the West Into South Dakota, before returning home.
 Perhaps no recent news afforded the democratic candidate for president so much interest as the announcement that MT. Taft proposed making a cam paign tour.
 Mir. Bryan regarded his opponents decision as a distinct vindlcatlon of his course in the present as well as his two previous campaigns when he tracked over the country and delivered political speeches.
 well l am getting a great deal of consolation out of the way the presi- dent and MT. Taft have been doing" said Mir Bryan. T used to be called hard names because I advocated an n- come tax and now the Income tax has been endorsed by the president and MT. Taft used to be bitterly denounced because l favored railroad regulation. Now the president and Mir Taft have brought that reform into popularity and I am no longer considered dan gerous used to get a good deal Of criticism because I favored tariff re- form. but now tariff reform has be- come so urgent that Mir. Taft Is will ing 10 have special session called im' mediately after Inauguration to act on the sufect It used to be that when I talked on independence for the Philip pines I was told that the American nag never came down when 1t once went up. Now we have a republican candl- date for president who believes that the Fllplnos must ultimately have ln- dependence.
 And now my greatest sin Is to be made virtue by imitation, When I went out campaigning In 1896 and 1900 they said lt was demagogic to run around over the country hunting for votes. Now it Is evidently proper since Mfr Taft Is going to do 1t, and hope the republican papers will make due apologies,
 ft is hard for us 10 keep our pat ents from being lnfringed on this year. 1 am afraid they will try to raise a campaign fund by popular contrbu- | tions next"
 MT Bryan is due in Chicago in the morning nt $40 o'clock and he will | proceed at once to the Auditorium Annex where the democratic head quarters are located and there confer with Chairman Mack and the other political managers and advisors.

s5 STRAGGLERS MISSING
Fleet Patrol Still Searching for Mel

Melbourne, Monday, Sept IA pa trol from the American fleet is still searching for the men who failed to go aboard their ships when they sailed Saturday morning. These number eigh- ty-five. but nearly all the stragglers left behind at sydney returned to the fleet.
 A wireless message from the flagship Connecticut received hero Saturday night brought the word that everyone aboard. from Rear Admiral Sperry down, gratefully remembered Mel bourne. and that all considered the Australian visit the greatest demons tratlon of International friendship in American history.
 The Argus, reviewing the visit of the fleet to Australasia. says In an editorial this morning.
 "A more orderly body of men never landed; officers and men alike inspired sincere regard and esteem. Never in history have two countries of different flags found such immediate and deep sympathy. Although not sure of our strength we are sure of our aspira- tons to keep this continent for the white race a clean blooded limb of Great Britain"

MT. O'Neill that MT. Smith had been influential in the passage of that act of congress establishing the court of private land claims which disposed of and disipated that claim. As a matter of fact MT. Smith. with the best in tentions in the world, was the chief opponent of that saving act, as he had been of the act for the creation of a land commission.
 In concluding his appeal in behalf of MT. Smith, Mir. ONeill fell into another error when he advised his hearers, if they wanted statehood right away, pre- sumably at the short session. to send a delegate to congress in accord with the administration. The only admins tration which will be in existence at the time of the short session will be that of MT Roosevelt. and if Mir. O'Neill thinks that Mir. Smith k in ac- cord with that president he is as much mistaken as he is generally regarding the records of the present delegate from Arizona.
