Never Said Roosevelt Would Be
President After Taft Served
Eight Years
DEMOCRATIC STORY is DENIED
Lonsworth Makes Vigorous statsment
Concerning What He Did Say in
Rock Island Speech - Roosevelt De-
nies That He Plans to Go On the
Stump in Tafts Behalf.

Cincinnati Oct. 5.-Congressmaa
Nicholas Longwortl1 today denounced
as a campaign lie the widely printed
story that in speech at Rock Island,
ILL.,, he proposed. that after Taft had
served two terms as president, Roose-
welt would again be a candidate for
president Longwortl's statement
follows:
"Tlre facts Of the case are: At the
meeting in Rock Island was intro
duced by the chairman OF the meeting
as a son of Ohio. Since Ohio seemed
determined ito break the record as the
mother of presidents, he said in a
jocular vein that probably would be
a candidate myself. Replying in a
similar vein, !. said was not there as
a candidate for any office, hut was
there to speak Of the present and to
advocate the election of Taft for pres
ident, not in the future but now. said
| I believed confidently that Taft would
be elected prisedtn, and thatsfrrdlup
be elected president, and that his adj
ministration would be. so wise and.
beneficial to the people that they would
demand that he would serve them an
other term. After that, said, Ohio
would not be selfish and would yield
to some other state perhaps New
York-to nominate the next president.
I had no particular candidate in mind

Parental Conesent Later.
Fort Dodge, Oct. 5.-Mention was
made recently of the fact that the To-
eel police department had been asked
20 apprehend a young man named
CLYDE Conlee and girl named Lydia
Noonan, both of Britt, who had
eloped and mad purchased tickets to
this city over the Minneapolis & st.
Louis. An investigation resulted in the
discovery of the fact that the couple
had been here the greater part of the
day. but had departed for the east on
an Illinois passenger train a short time
before the local officers were asked to
letain them.
The father of the young girl, who
was but sweet 16, stated at the time he
had but one objection to the marriage
of the couple and that was their youth,
and later it was learned he left for Ill
inois, the former home of the young
man in an effort to prevent the mar
riage at the present time. According to
the Britt Tribune he discovered the
elopers and they returned home with
him on the promise that when years
had been added to their days they
might marry with the consent of the
Young lady's parents.

large assemblage of stock yards en-
ployes at noon today, from the steps OF
the stock yards exchange. President
John Donoven, of the exchange, pre-
sented the candidate. He said he was
a democrat but know Taft to be a
thorough American in every particu-
lar and to have clean record Of great
achievements, "and should he be elect
ed president, there is nothing would
not feel it a privilege to do for him. =
Taft analyzed the labor situation
with reference to the two parties and
again declared himself to be the friend
and not the enemy Of labor. Later Taft
spoke to several hundred Burlington
railroad shopmen, following which the
candidate delivered an industrial
speech to an immense audience in the
opera house All his speeches were
most enthusiastically oheered and ap-
plauded.

MACK CLAIMS THE EARTH.
Lists Many States Which He Says
Bryan Will Carry.

Chicago, Oct. 5.-Returning to Chi
cago today to take up the democratic
campaign direction, in the west, Ma
tional Chairman Mack declared the tide
was strong for Bryan in the east and
that if the democrats could hold their
advantage there the democratic ticket
would be surely elected.
New York is going democratic" he
said, Sin fact there will be a landslide for
Bryan in the Empire state. New Jer-
sey, Rhode Island, Maryland, Delaware,
Indiana and Ohio will also be found in
the democratic column"
Mack said the Roosevelt letters had
helped the democrats and that Con-
gressman Longwortll's declaration that
the country would have eight years of
Taft, after which Roosevelt would be
president for eight years, merely con-
firmed what has been plain for some
time that the president was seeking to
establish and perpetuate the Roosevelt
dynasty,

FLEET oUTRIDEs HURRICANE.
Storm at Manila Rases for Twelv

Storm at Manila Rages for Twelve
Hours.
Manila, Oct. 5.-The Atlantic battle
ship fleet has safely outridden a hur-
|ricane which swept Manila bay for
twelve hours and did much damage
ashore.
early Sunday morning, The storm
broke over the bay sud. .nly and unex-
pectedly at noon. 1t was impossible to
hoist the cutters and launches belong
ing to the fleet because of the dam
ger Of smashing them against the steel
sides OF the battle ships, and the little
craft was sent scurrying inside the
breakwater into the Pasig river, where
they remained all night.
The storm increased rapidly in in
tensity and the torrential rains shut in
the ships.
At 8 o'clock Sunday night the storm
had reached its height, and 1t then
gradually tapered down until at mid
night it was comparatively calm, altho
heavy seas swung across the harbor.

TO APPEAL TO COURTS
New York Might Tie Up Championship
Games Between Leaders of Two Ma
jor Leagues.

New York, Oct. 5.-The statement
was made here today with the claim
of reliable authority, that in case the
national league directors uphold Presi-
dent Pulliam's decision of a tie game
September % and New York loses the
championship thereby, John T. Brush,
president Of the New York club, will
take the case to the civil courts. II
this happens the worlds championship
series may not be played. The mode
of procedure would be to obtain an
injunction preventing any other team
than the Giants from engaging in a
series with the American league cham
pions, and before the case could be
fought out in the courts the season
would probably be too far advanced
and the weather too cold for base ball.

London, Oct. Turkey is not in
clined towards war with Bulgaria, and
it is believed she will call a conference
of the powers to consider the matter
of Bulgaria's proclamation Of independ-
ence. Indications from other capitals
of Europe are that the powers will in
tervene to prevent hostilities in the
near east. All the chancelleries Of Eu-
rope are busy today with efforts to
discover modus vivendi which will re-
suit in the maintenance Of peace.
In spite Of the peaceful endeaWors OF
the powers concerned in this near
eastern difficulty, the military forces
OF both Turkey and Bulgaria are pre-
pairing for eventualities. The Turkish
army is stronger Numerically, but the
Bulgarian army is in better condition
of efficiency.
News no less interesting than the
act of Prince Ferdinand is brought in
Vienna dispatches to the effect that
Austria Hungary has practically de-
cided to annex the occupied provinces
of Bosnia and Herzegovina: Emperor
Francis Joseph has addressed an auto
graph letter to the heads OF all states,
in which he explains the necessity Of
altering the political status Of these
provfnces.

Situation in Near East Causes Grave
Concern to Powers.

Situation in Near East Causes Grave
| Concern to Powers.
London. Oct 5.-Events which
threaten to change the political face
of Europe are crystallizing with light
ming rapidity Almost over night the
horizon of the near east. which seemed
gradually to be assuming a peaceful
appearance, has become crowded with
war Clouds
Two definite strokes have been
made which cannot fail to bring mat
tiers to crisis and perhaps force an
immediate war One is the proclama-
tion by Prince Ferdinand of the indie
pendence of Bulgaria, which will in
olude Rumelia, taking for himself the
title of "czar." The other is an an
lnouncement Of Austria Hungary of the
practical annexation of the provinces
of Bosnia and Herzegovina as appan-
ages Of the Austro-Hungarian crown
Either action is equivalent to the
tearing UP of the treaty of Berlin
while Prince Ferdinand's course seems
almost certain to precipitate WAT be-
tween Bulgaria and Turkey.
Before these possibilities the quarrel
over the East Rllmelian section Of the
Orient Railway sinks into insigniii-
cance Both armies are reported to
| be quietly and swiftly mobilizing near
the borders. Bulgaria is said to be
buying up munitions and horses on an
extensive scale.
The Bulgarians have faith in their
army, which has reached a high state
Of efficiency, altho it is perhaps lacking
in officers, and the war, for which Bul-
Egaria has long been suspected Of pre-
g. could be fought with more ad-
vantage for her now than When the
Turkish government had time to reor-
ganize its forces, which have become
enervated by the corruption and ne
glect of the old regime.
The emperor of Austria. it is under
stood, has dispatched a letter to the
president Of France setting forth his
intentions regarding Bosnia and Here
govina, altho the contents Of the letter
are kept secret, and he is sending sim
liar notes to the other powers
It seems incredible that Emperor
Francis Joseph, who always has been
a scrupulous observer Of forms, should
reveal his plans to the rulers OF other
nations before he has communicated
them to his own parliament. One ex-
PLANTATION is that the letter was not in
tended for delivery until Tuesday, when
identical notes would be presented to
the other powers.
While Austria's action with regard TO
the two provinces may not technically
be called annexation, it is believed it
will amount to that, --aaatS-cr it may
be called. Apparentl.. emperor is
determined that the DESTINY of these
provinces shall be Austrian, not Tur-
lSish. For thirty years they have been
administered by Austria a-Hungary, but
they have always remained theoretical
