SATISFIED OF BRIBERY

Hussey's belief in the thoroughly ad-
vertised fact that the members of the
board of supervisors had received
money for their votes on the overhead
trolley franchise was the apparent OBJ
lection argued against his capability to
serve on the jury. He said he believed
that bribery had been committed. Then
Stanley Moore challenged him. O'Gara
denied the challenge. When the oppos-
ing attorneys objected to questions put
they did not argue the usual ground of
irrelevancy, incompetency and imma
teriality, but declared the questions
were complex or TOO long, or had some
other unusual fault Judge Lawlor
finally warned the lawyers to cease
their metaphysical distinctions. He put
a few pertinent questions to the venire-
man and Hussey replied that he had no
opinion in the case that could not be
removed by evidence. That satisfied the
court and Hussey passed, only to be
peremptorily challenged.

Chicago July 22- chicago probably

as the center Of activity for the pres
idential ticket. A conference of the
congressional leaders was held at the
Union Leag-e club and another meet
ing will be held late in the week.
Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, Con
gresham William B. Mckinley, Con
gresham Henry G. Loudenslager OF
New Jersey and Senator James Hem
enway of Indiana were present and
went over the list of states in which
the work of the congressional COM
mittee will be centered.
It was agreed that the burden OF
the work will be in the West and for
this reason 1t was thought advisable
that the 11eaquarters of the committee
be established In Chicago.
When the conferees return 1t Is
probable that an agreement will be
reached as to the chairman of the

A young man named Enathlus de.
sired to learn eloquence and art OF
pleading, ard he bargained with Pro.
tagoras, the ancient Greek sophist, fol
instructions, agreeing to pay one halt
Of the fee down and the other half on
the first day he gained case. It took
the young man so long to learn that
his tutor came to the conclusion that
he was delaying his start In business
to avoid paying the other half Of the
fee, SO Protagoras sued him for the
money.
When the case came up for trial Pro.
tagoras said to the young man: "You
act most absurdly, young man, be-
eause in either case you must pay me.
If the judges decide against you, you
must pay, and If they decide for you
you must pay, for you will then have
gained your case."
"You are wrong" replied the young
man. Il will yin either way. II the
Judges are for me, will not have to
pay, and If they are against me will
not have to pay, for this last was the
very bargain between us-namely. If
did not win my case"
The judges considered the case mex
plicable, and as they could not see
their way to any decision they ad-
journed the case to day that never
came for any of the principals. On
Protagoras' side it was a case of los.
ing when he won and on the young

Pittsburg, July 22.-Fire which
started in the Holmes public school
from burning waste paper in the base

school.
The large building rapidly filled
with smoke and the children, scream
ing and almost suffocated, rushed
from the structure in great disorder.
Many of them were thrown down and
trampled on. Adding EaIch to the
confusion was the action of parents
of children living nearby, who, al
though choking with smoke, congre-
gated in the main doorway and ex-
citedly called the names of their chill
dren.

Taft's Speech of Acceptance Practi
caIIy Completed.

-
Hot Springs, Va, July 22.-Three
days more of diligent consideration
and careful revision will be given by
William H. Taft to the speech he is
to deliver at Cincinnati Tuesday next
in acknowledgment of the official no.
tification that he is the presidential
nominee of the Republican party.
Although the speech is to be supple
mented in September by an. extended
letter of acceptance it is the purpose
of the candidate to take this earlier
opportunity to set forth precisely and
as concisely as may be possible his
position on the Surprising multitude"
of questions which must be dealt with
in the campaign. The Importance
politically of this announcing himself
has been impressed upon Mr.. Taft by
the numerous political advisers with
whom he has consulted, and he has
decided to take the risk of being te-
dious in the delivery Of a speech of
an hour and half, which will be fully
Illuminating, in place of the thirty
minute talk he had at first believed
would suffice. But there is much con-
sulting yet to be done and undoubted-
ly many changes of expression will be
made. Frank B. Kellogg has consent
ed to assist in the revising process
until Friday, when Mr.. Taft has prom
ised himself that The work shall be
