ORDINANCE To
GUT WEEDS
A Difference of Opinion
Among Those to Whom
It Was Referred.

The ordinance compelling residents
to cut all weeds over twelve inches
in height on their premises and also
along sidewalks in front of their prop
erty, came up for discussion at a
joint meeting of the harbor and sani-
tary committee and board of health
last night, and there was a difference
OF opinion between the members to
whom 1t had been referred by the
council, which rsulted in an amend
ment striking out that portion of the
ordinance compelling residents to cut
weeds outside of their yards.
Another amendment made to the or
dinance, which will be reported to the
council tonight is that providing that
all weeds cut by residents shall be re-
moved hc the board of public works.
Mr.. lngraham. of the committee,
moved to pass the ordinance to the
council with the amendment that the
board of works shall remove the
weeds, but this was lost, Messrs. Oil
yer, Rocheblave and Meyer voting
against it on account Of the section
relating to residents cutting weeds
near the sidewalks, which, they said,
was the duty of the city.
In its amended form the ordinance,
which has already been read the first
time, Will be reported tonight.

 as 1t found its way up to the Taggart headquarters, and when It was photc- graphed after it's arrival with its new owner standing proudly by its side. there were many faces in the group which would probably not be recog- nized as those of Democratic leaders. Accompanying the donkey was young man from The Times who bore to Mir. Teggart the following note from Man. aging Editor Clark to that paper:
 T am sending you by trusted mes senger, a rare and wonderful Colorado bird, the Rocky Mountain nightingale. His melodious music will charm you early and late and his sweet smile is something to inspire you whenever cares of state oppress. His name Is Denver so he will serve to remind you of our city whenever his bright smile happens to haunt you. The Rocky Mountain nightingale is probably the most Democratic denizen of Colorado. You will find him a friend to rely on. and as affectionate as a brother. Take this living emblem of Democracy and treasure him. The Denver Times pre- sents him to you as slight token o1 esteem and every confidence that he will help to bear the party burden and join harmoniously in the grand march to success. Head him towards the White House and watch him arrive. .".s.

SENSATION DID NOT MATERIALrzE
 AT MEETING.
Rev. Gilbert williams, Depcsed Epfs- copal Rector, Charged With Being Father of Child of
 One of His Com
 usunicnnfs.

Williams. who was deposed as a minister of an Epis- copai Church. on charge that he was the father of a child of one of his communicants reviewed the whole case. but the sensation did not mate rialize.
 MT. williams was to have proclaim ed to the public his innocence of the alleged act. but the girls two brothers who had previously warned MT. Wil- Hams not to mention her name in con- uection with the matter, were on hand. and her name was not referred to at all. A number of policemen were present in anticipation Of trouble, but there was no necessity for their ser vices. After stating that he Is in pos session of evidence which he proposes to lay before the Bishop of Washing ton in the hope of securing review of the case that will startle this city. Mir. williams says that inasmuch as there is a movement on foot on the part of the clergy and laymen to re- open the case, he would satisfy himself with a brief resume of the case, al- though he had been requested by them not to hold the meeting. He declared that the case will not. rest unth ne ls vindicated of the accusation,
 He charges that the Episcopal court that deposed him, was incompetent. and said that he was convicted under false testimony At the time of the trial. the ecclesiastical court found Mfr. Williams guilty, and. recommended to the late Bishop Satteflee his dismissal. Mir. Williams then took the case to the civil court. Judge Bradley of. the Dis trict Supreme Court, who has since. died. decided the case in his favor. but this decision was reversed on appeal by Bishop satterlee. Since then the case has been at a standstill. Mr, williams was formerly rector of Christ Episcopal Church in this city.

Denver, July 2-The number of con- tests before the National Democratic Committee for representation for del- exates on the temporary roll call in the National Democratic Convention was increased today from 50 to 54.
 Todays' mail brought notices of con- tests, in the Ninth and Nineteenth Ohio Districts. Tn each of these cases, the factions are claiming that they rep- resent the regular, organization and are therefore entitled to seats as dele gates. The National Committee will begin hearing all contests on Monday morning. The situation with respect to the Idaho delegates is expected to develop bitter fight in which the Mormon. question will play a leading part. Former Senator DuBoise and Heitfeld will base a claim for recog. tion' of their delegation on the plea that the convention which chose the other delegates was dominated by Mor- mons and Is not a representative Dem ocratic body. The headquarters of the delegation was the scene of activity today Secretary Woodson and Assist ant Secretary Edwin Sefton were kept busy preparing the contested cases for the committee. -t~

Tosvne in Race.


 Denver, Colo, July 2-Fresh from his visit of yesterday to William ]. Bryan. at his home in Lincoln. Charles A. Towne, of New York. candidate for Vivc President on the Democratic ticket. arrived here today and at once placed himself in touch with the lead CTS of his party now here.
 'T may say that am in the race to stay" said Mir. Towne,a and I have every reason to feel that will be nominated. l have been assured of the support of a large number of the New York delegation. and believe that at the proper. time. they all will be for me. From other parts of the country also has come information that my candidacy Is Acceptable and pledges of actual support"
 He said that he discussed at length with MT. Bryan. the various blanks of the platform, and especially that bear ing on the subject of the issuance of writs of injunctions by Federal judges In labor cases.
 'On that proposition" he said, you can emphatically state that there will be no stsaddfe and no ambiguity. The anti-injunction plank will be so framed as to meet with favor from a large maIority ofthe working men of the country"
 Another plank, which in all prob- ability will be incorporated In the platform, and which was discussed at length with Mir. Bryan. will embody the proposition of an annual neutral ization of the Philippine Islands.
 "The belief was entertained" said Mir. Towne, ssthat such policy would result in avoiding the necessity for the tremendous military defensive ex- penses and give an assurance of the development of those lands under our guidance toward. approximate inde- pendence. Furthermore. 1t is likely that there will be 8 distinct pro nouncement that a permanent system of dependency Is out of harmony with our possessions and discharge of the the duties that have come to us with the Philippine Islands as result of the Spanish war will not be permitted to defect us permanently from tho course of our true national progress" B That, he said, was in harmony with Mir. Bryan's own views.
 Considerable speculation is being in- dulged relative to the attitude of the New York delegation on the President and the platform. So. far they have not pledged themselves to anybody or ''The New York delegation" said MT. Towne, is coming here in good faith to have counsel with the delegates of the country and will be- guided in its action after arriving here by the re~ suits of that counsel"

Mason City, Aug. 1.-THE walk-out
OF five pretty hello" girls yesterday
threatened to tie up the city service
Of the Western Electric Telephone
system. The operators on the local
board were not receiving as high
wages as the girls on the long dis
lance service and they went out on a
strike for more pay.
After a talk with the manager,
which lasted for half an hour. and
during which, the long distance girls
were doing double duty on the switch
board, two Of the strikers We're per-
suaded to resume their positions, and
continue with their work. Three, how
ever, held out and say that they will
not go back to work until their demand
for higher pay is granted.
The girls on the local board get
$3.50 month and on the long dis
lance beard $3.50 for the same time.
The local girls say that they have as
many troubles as the long distance
girls. Also that they are tired OF say
ing hello" and number" Longer ex-
perlence is required and longer hours
from the long distance girls and the
difference is not unjust, says the man
agement. 1t is not likely that the de-
mands of the fair strikers will be
granted.
