What is regarded as virtually the

at Kansas City. Me-, attended by 1000
members of the Young Mems Demo
cratic Club of Missouri. Judson Har-
mon of Ohio was also down for a
speech. and he began it, but the eager
ness to hear Bryan made the audience
impatient and so noisy that Harmon
had to quit. The keynote of Bryan's
talk was comparison between Taft
and La Toilette, in which he made it
plain that he regarded the latter as n
real reformer, who, If he were nomi-
mated. would command the support Of
that big section Of Republicans who
want to see things done, while Taft he
characterized as bogus reformer.
Bryan expects to see many Republic
ans support the Democratic candidates

The investigation of thu charges

President Rice of that company was

accused a rival submarine concern, the
Lake Boat Company of Connecticut,

called off if the Electric Boat company
would agree to consolidation, but he
did not say that Lilley knew of this
plot. Rice said that the proposition had
come to him from Hugh Grant Brown
OF New York and that Brown had told
him that IL the deal were made Sen

often when no other symptoms are to
be detected. In some epidemics these
sounds may be heard IN the majority
of cases, while at other times they
may Be quite regularly absent. Their
prssence Is Of great value In diagnosis
and may be the only warning signal to
guard against the spread OF infection
A bog who was pale, languid and

these his case was decided to be scar
