FORMER ENEMY
COMES TO RESCUE OF MAN WHO
GAVE HIM VALUABLE INFOR-
NATION.

PITTSBURG, February 10.-Charles
M. Schwab has come to the. rescue of
F. T. F. Lovejoy, who will thus be able
to save at least 100000 of his fortune,
which has been decreased rapidly
by foreclosures. Sheriff's foreclosure
proceedings against "Lovejoy's folly a
$75O,0OO house, and other proceedings
have been stopped through Schwab.
For years SChwab and Lovejoy were
business opponents. Lovejoy stood with
Andrew Carnegie when the latters
split with H. c. FriclI came, and Love-
joy went with Prick. Previous to this,
Schwab and Lovejoy were friends.
Each was a poor boy when Carnegie
took him up. Lovejoy, from tele-
graph operator, became secretary OF
the Carnegie Steel Company, and Sch
wab, a grocers clerk, became president
One day Lovejoy, the telegraph oper-
ator, overheard a message going over
the wires, and was able to help his
friend Schwab, who was then deep in
a stock gamble. Schwab said he would
never forget this act of friendship and
it would seem now he hasn't.

The case of Nakashima is that of
IA Japanese subject, a resident of San
Jose, California, who was arrested
here by the immigration officials and
detained for a long time in the immi
grafton sheds, threatened with depor-
tation as an undesirable because OF
|trachoma. His release was secured
through the taking out of a writ of
habeas corpus and the decision, sub
ject to an appeal, by Judge Dole. The
decision was given in the local FEEDER
al Court on January &c, 1907, and an
appeal was noted by then Assistant
District Attorney Dunno, on instruc-
tions from Washington. In his writ
ten decision, Judge Dole stated that the
court had a right to interfere in the
rulings of the immigration officials
when their rulings are on matters not
placed expressly within their jurisdic
ton by the law In this case the
Judge found that the immigration Off
GERS were dealing with Nakashima I'M
der the sections dealing with alien i'm
migrants, whereas he was in fact an
alien resident
Nakashima had been ordered as a
military reservist to Japan to fight
against the Russians and was on his
way back to San Jose when detained
here.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE
FIRST CIRCUIT, TERRITORY OF
HAWAII
Omaha daily bee., 1908-07-03

MIR. Kern reiterated his statement that
the platform will contain a strong anti
injunction plank and predicted that tbs
meeting of the resolutions committee wiz
be harmonious. He did not expect a plat
form fight on the floor.
Congressman Henry D. Clayton of Ala
bama, who will be permanent chairman Of
the Denver convention. was at the Lindell
hotel today trying to collect his thoughts
and put them on paper. His keynote
speech is not yet prepared, but will be
ready by next Tuesday. Mr.. Clayton is
enthusiastically for a Bryan platform and
a Bryan ticket.
w have already elected Mr.. Bryan in
Alabama and we will keep on electing
him said the congressman.
For the vice presidency the Alabama
congressman had no choice. So II he is a
good Bryan man, which spells democrat to
Mr.. Clayton, he will be satisfactory. Mr..
Clayton named over a score or more OF
good men who would satisfy him for the
second person on the ticket. All democrats
are in one camp this year, he insisted, and
It is difficult to name a nan who would
not be satisfactory.
Omaha daily bee., 1908-07-03

and the gold democrat who gets into camp
o rsecures recognition must first eat crow
from the hands of Mr.. Bryan. This i'm
portant fact was tipped off by John NJ.
Garman, a Pennsylvania delegate. who
called on Mr.. Bryan yesterday. In discuss
ing the announcement Of Judge Gray that
he would not consent to accept the NOM
ination of vice president, Mr.. Garman said
l don't believe Gray was the. strong
Bryan ticket in 1885 and has been holding
an a%ppointive job under a republican ad-
ministration. There are lots of us who
haven't forgiven him for boiling. If he'd
get back into the ranks OF the party again
and work for the common good we might
forget.
Judge Gray bolted the democratic ticket
in 1896 because he did not believe in the
free silver proposition as advocated by Mr..
Bryan. AS analysed by a local statesman,
the situation is this:
1.-The Bryan delegates will not stand for
anyone who bolted the ticket In 1896, unless
tthe bolter will come into camp and say
Mr.. Bryan was right in the stand he took
that year. To admit Bryan was right then
such men as Judge Gray must admit they
were wrong in the stand they took. This
means that the silver question is still ar
issue with the democrats, whether it is
lltHllOhSu III lnelT pldlIOTHl OF not.
There has never been a condition IN
American history when one man so dom.
mated a political party as does Mr.. Bryan
Newspaper men have been absolutely un.
able to get one single statement OF lmpor.
lance out of a single delegate who has
gone through the city, Every delegate Is
afraid to say a word for fear of displeas-
ing Mr.. Bryan. Delegates to the conven'
ton Will not even hazard a guess as tc
what the platform will contain.
After the delegates leave Mr.. Bryan il
is impossible to get a word out of them
Bryan has them cowed absolutely. The
fact is the delegates don't know what will
happen and Mr.. Bryan has not taken them
into his confidence. There are probably
a few men who know just what Bryan
wants, but these are men OF such discre-
ton they will keep their information to
themselves until Bryan presses the button. 4"
A few Of the southern delegates. the
Minnesota delegation ard probably a few
others will not come through Lincoln to get
Inspiration, and these are the only delegates
who will refuse to bow down to the Bryan
will.
Omaha daily bee., 1908-07-03

Bryan's nomination on the. first ballot
is quite out of the question and say that
IL the Nebraskan can be kept down until
the second or third vote the nomination
is as likely to go tn one man as TO an
other and that Mr.. Gray's chances viii be
equal to the best.
You say Bryan and Gray" said Mr..
Marvel, the Gray manager, to Judge Pow
ers, head OF the Utah delegation, who
wears a Gray button, but says he is for
Bryan. "Why not make it Gray and
Bryan BY contending for Gray for second
place you admit his qualities as a vote
getter. Bryan has tried twice and failed.
He would get for tho ticket as vice pres
identlal candidate all the votes he can
command as a candidate for the presidency.
Give us Gray and Bryan and we will win. y
More Worry About Tickets.
Chairmen of state delegations who are
in the city, and especially those from
nearby western states, are deeply worried
over the situation as regards the seating
arrangements in the auditorium, or con-
vention hall. The seating capacity is con-
siderably less than was estimated and the
number of tickets allotted to each state
delegation has been severely cut down. :
when our folks from home arrive" said
one Of these chairmen today, Il think l
shall take to the mountains and remain
there until the storm is over"
Judge o. w. Powers, chairman of the
Utah delegation, is one of the state leaders
plunged into perplexity. Utah will have
the largest crowd ever sent. 20 a demo-
cratic convention, the proximity of Denver
offering the opportunity that long has been
waited for. Salt Lake City WIN send two
special train loads of politicians and sight
seers, all of whom will want and expect
TO see the convention.
Judge Powers has just twenty-elght tick

ton with great care, Mi. Marvel said he
thought II open to criticism and that a
resolution which did not rake up issues
over which there had been or was likely
to be bitterness would answer the purpose
far better and be eminently more just to
the record Of Mr.. Cleveland.
More emphatic than all these men was
Judge Wade Of iowa. He said that every
proposition IN the Cleveland resolution
which might give rise to controversy
should be pulled out by the roots"
Continuing, he said: "If the friends and
enemies of Mr.. Bryan threaten to dispute
over this question then the friends OF
MI. Cleveland will insist that there shall
be no party quarrels in paying to his MEM
DRY the respect which his honorable serv-
ice to the party deserves"
Johnson Men Encouraged.
I'VE still feel the utmost confidence in
the outcome OF bur campaign and our
twenty-four hours in Denver, instead of
weakening, has strengthened our assur-
ance," remarked Mr.. Lynch, who has
charge of Governor Johnson's candidacy
for the presidency. Asked for an ex-

Used with His Consent.
LINCOLN, Neb., July "A driving rain
pounding into William j. Bryan's alfalfa
field and turning to mud the road which
leads from the street car line to the Fair
view driveway was a matter of regret to
the democratic presidential oand date this
morning.
This is tad for visitors" said Mr.. Bryan,
as he surveyed the dismal scene.
1t was 10: 30 o'clock before the first heroic
delegate arrived in the person OF Clyde s.
Johnson, a delegate-at-large from West
Virginia. Mr.. Johnson, accompanied by W,
+. Chiltons, who is credited with forceful
work in securing the Endorsement of West
Virginia democrats for the Nebraskan, and
Arthur English, a West Virginia attorney,
came in a cab through mud nearly a foot
deep.
After this visit Mr.. Bryan, realizing the
hardship OF the trip TO Fairview over such
roads, determined to visit the city himself
and meet the delegates at the Lincoln hotel.
Mr.. Bryan reached the hotel shortly be-
fore noon and Immediately went into con-
ference with John r Lamb. former con-
gresham and Indiana member Of the reso-
lutions committee.
Among those gathered at the hotel to
meet Mr.. Bryan were John w. Kern. whose
name has been mentioned for second place
on the ticket; Congressman II. d. Clayton
OF Alabama, who will be-, permanent chair
man Of the convention at Denver; con-
gresham William SulZer OF New York,
Claude Bowers. delegate-at-large from tho
Fifth Indiana district; Stokes Jackson,
chairman Of the Indiana state central com
mittee. and Abram Simmons, deIegate-at-
large from Indiana.
The Indiana men declared, in common
with those from Virginia, that their delega-
ton at Dsnye would be a unit for a can
didate for vice president who will be a
sterling Bryan man. Delegates from both
states will work for a platform that VII
satisfy Mr.. Bryan. Mr., Kern stated today
that he had not been a candidate for sec
ond place on the ticket and did not expect
to be one.
Il would a good deal rather go back home
without the nomination than with IT," he
said. MY name will not be presented 70
the convention by our delegation nor by
anyone else with my consent. There are
other men who VIII bring the ticket greater
support thar
