there is consciousness of having done
q great wrong.
Voted for the others
Except only the Brownsville matter,
the rate bill and joint statehood l voted
for all the measures the president
enumerated among the achievements
of his administration, and some OF
them I was in charge of on the floor OF
the senate when they were passed.
"I have said enough, I hope, to justl-
fly my course both as to the rate bill
and as to Brownsville and 1t Is not nee
essary that I should say anything in
justification of my course with respect
to Joint statehood, except only to
point to the national Republican plat
form upon which Mr.. Taft stands, one
plank of which declares in favor of
separate statehood for New Mexico and
Arizona.
"If in making this 7afense I have
said anything that will work the
slightest injury to the Republican
party I shall regret it, but I shall al
ways feel that those who have no con-
sideration for me, my family or good
name, but would gloatingly rejoice IL
they could accomplish the shame and
humiliation they have attempted, are
not entitled to any consideration at my
hands, and that my duty to the party
should be subordinated to duty to fam
lily and the good name I have striven
to make, that 1 may leave it to them
as their heritage, more priceless in
their estimation than anything else
within my power to give them"

WILBUR WRIGHT'S FLIGHT
Is LIMITED BY LEAKAGE
Comes to the Ground After Covering
Twenty-Five Miles Because Gaso-
line Tank Had Not Been
Closed

LEMANS, France. Sept. 25.-Wilbur
Wright, the American aeroplanist,
made flight at the Field of Avours
this morning that lasted for thirty-siS
minutes and fourteen seconds. He COW
cred twenty-five miles at an average
height of forty-hve feet. He came to
the ground because one of the gasoline
tanks, which had not been firmly
closed, leaked.
The distance made by Mr.. Wright
yesterday, when he flew for the Niche
lin and Aero club prizes, has been Of
fcially recorded at 39,095 meters "a nt-
tie over twenty-four miles). Mr.. Wright
denied today again that he had ordered
more powerful motor for his ma.
chine. He is inclined to think tnat
twenty-five miles an hour will be the
maximum aeroplane speed for some
years to come.
The friends of Mr.. Wright in France
are trying to persuade him to fly across
the English channel on the ground thai
such feat would furnish the best
evidence of his absolute confidence IN
his machine.

KEEN DISAPPOINTMENT
FOLLOWS NAVAL ORDER
MANILA GAYLY DECORATED FOR
s FLEETS ARRIVAL
No Shore Leave Because Of Cholera
Means That Thousands of Dollars
Spent for Entertainment
Is Wasted

MANILA, Sept. 26.---The effect of
Secretary of the Navy Metcalf's order
that in view of the presence of cholera
in Manila no shore leave was to be
granted or visitors from shore allowed
on the battleships when the Atlantic
fleet arrived has been largely dis
counted by the realization yesterday
that it would be impossible to cleanse
the city before the arrival of the feet.
about October /. People fully realize
the necessities of the situaZon, but
they are bitterly disappointed at the
outcome.
Thousands of dollars have been spent
in preparation for the reception and
entertainment Of the officers and men.
The decorations have been practically
completed.
A score of arches have been erect
ed and thousands of electric lights
have been strung for the illumination
of the city, now cheerless In its festi-
val trappings. A program elaborate
and novel, which represents four
months work by 250 active committee
men, had been arranged.
The majority of the sentiment now
favors a months postponement of the
program or until the return of the fleet
from Japan. That will probably be
the decision of the conference which
Governor General Smith has called to
meet later today.
The only criticism heard of Secretary
Metcalf's order is his inclusion of Of
ficers in the embargo against landing
1t is pointed out that they run no
danger providing they exercise ordi-
nary care in what they eat and drink.
The cholera has not affected the or
binary avocations or routine OF the
city. For twenty-four hours ending at
o'clock this morning forty-two cases
and six deaths are reported. This num-
ber includes many suspected cases.
This small number of deaths shows
that, many cases gathered in in the
draenet are not true cholera.

SAIL TO ESTABLISH
BETTER RELATIONS
LOS ANGELES MERCHANTS ON
WAY TO JAPAN
Business Men of Pacific Coast Unite
to Promote Improved Commercial
Exchange Between Orient
and Occident
[py Associated Press.l

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 25.--With a
view of bringing about an improvement
In the commercial relations of the two
countries and responding to an invita-
tion issued by the chambers of COM
merce of the principal cities in Japan.
forty of the leading manufacturers,
merchants and business men of the
Pacific coast, representing the cham
bers of commerce and commercial or
ganizations of San Francisco, Los An
geles, San Diego, Oakland, Eureka,
Portland and Seattle, sailed today on
the Japanese steamer Tenyo for Japan,
for an extended tour of the Land of
the Rising Sun.
Mr.. Chozo Koike, the Japanese consul
general at San Francisco, and Mrs.
Koike accompanied the party, while
many members took with them their
wives and families.
In view of the anti-Japanese senti-
ment which is said to prevail on the
coast among certain classes, the de-
parture of many of the leading mer-
chants and manufacturers of the prin-
cipal coast cities to study Japan and
meet the leading men in the Japanese
business world will be an expression
and at the same time a demonstration
of the cordial feelings of the CONNER
ciai organizations on the coast for
Japan and its people.
Expect Good Results
1t is believed that a better under
standing and closer relation between
the commercial organizations of japan
and the Pacific coast will result, bring
Ing about an Improvement in the trade
and commerce of equal benefit to both
countries.
The party will touch at Honolulu,
where the Tenyo will remain long
enough to give the members an oppor-
tunity to view the principal points of
interest and reach Japan in time to
greet the American battleship fleet
upon its arrival in Yokohama, remain
ing through the chrysanthemum festi-
val and celebration of the emperor's
birthday.
Most elaborate arrangements have
been made by the chambers OF COM
merce and principal commercial organ
izations of the leading Japanese cities
for the entertainment of the American
delegates, some of the organizations
having had valuable gold and silver
medals made to be presented to the
Americans in honor of the occasion.
The party will leave Yokohama on
the return trip early in November, but
many of the members declared their
intention of remaining in Japan sew
eral months.

GOMPERS BELIEVES
TRIAL IS DRAGNET
DESIGNED FOR LITIGATION
AGAINST OFFICERS
cross-Examination of President OF
Federation Of Labor Concluded
After Defendant Has Made
Trlte Remarks
[ny Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-The cross
examination of Mr.. Gompers was con-
cluded before Examiner Harper OF the
District of Columbia supreme court to-
day.
Mr.. Gompers believed the present pro-
ceedings postponed until after the
Democratic convention though he tried
to expedite 1t, is really "dragnet to
procure facts as q basis for further
litigation In the future designed to SO
impoyerish the officers of the fedora
ton that they will be at the tender
mercies of their enemies"
He declared that the National Manu-
facturers' association, the anti-boycott
association and the citizens alliance
were all engaged in a constant effort
to destroy trades unionism by furnish
ing strike breakers.
Mr.. Gompers declared that a bureau
of the National Manufacturers asso-
citation, maintained at Chicago, had
kept black list of union men for many
years.
Have they ever been indicted on ac-
count of their course?" asked Mr.. Rails
ton.
mot that I know Of"
Oppose Eiaht-Hour Law
Mr.. Raiston introduced number of
letters intended to show that the Manu-
facturers' association and kindred or
ganizations have urgently opposed an
eight hour law, an employers liability
law, an anti-injunction law and other
legislation demanded by organized Ia
bor.
A circular sent out by Mr.. Van Cleave
July 10 last was read in part. 1t re-
ferred to the efforts in congress to
procure labor legislation and in the
Chicago convention to obtain indorse-
ment of that effort as revolutionary
and anti-American."
The circular concluded that 1t was
"The duty of these business men to
bury Bryan and Organism under such
an avalanche of votes that 1t would
not have to be done over again In 1912, =
and Mr.. Gompers declared the appeal
was simply due to the hallucination OF
Mr. Van Cleave."
He added:
az should say that my associates or
myself are interested in the present
political campaign, not because we are
Democrats or Republicans, but because
the Democratic party has adopted a
declaration that if placed in power it
will remedy the discrimination prac-
ticed against working people of the
country"
Mr.. Gompers again being questioned
declared that he had not been actuated
by motives of personal malice toward
Van Cleave in his editorial and other
utterances respecting him. He claimed
the constitutional right to the rree ex-
preston of his opinion, that neither
congress or the courts had power to
limit the freedom of speech or of the
press"; and that the present proceed
ing was an unwarranted effort to deny
such freedom
The hearing will be continued tomor-
row.
