GOVERNMENT TO FIGHT HARD
Bonaparte Declares Every Effort Will
/. Be Put Forth to Convict Oil Trust.


Lenox, Mass, July 3O.-"Every ef-
fort of the United States government
will be put forth to secure revision
of the recent decision of the United
States court of appeals in the Stand
ard Oil company case"
"Other appropriate steps will be
taken afterward, their character to be
determined by the courts action upon
this application. The pending prosecu.
tions in which the giving or receiving
of rebates, or offenses of like character
are charged will be pressed to trial and
judgment by the government with all
possible energy and as promptly as
practicable. In the view Of the govern
ment's legal advisors, the reversal of
the judgment in the case recently de-
cided in no way affects the merits of
that controversy or the necessity and
duty of bringing to punishment if pos
sible in this and any other cases any
individual or corporation shown to
have evaded or defied the laws"
In discussing the various aspects Of
the case. Attorney General Bonaparte
published in certain newspapers to the
effect that w. Parmeele Prentice, the
son-in-law Of John d. Rockefeller, had
given, or was to give,a dinner to the at
torney general, Mr.. Rockefeller and
Judge Grosscup. Mr.. Bonaparte said in
this connection:
81 have not the pleasure of Mr..
Prentice's acquaintance. did not know
that Judge Grosscup was here until af
ter he had left, and the dinner is en-
tirely figment of lively imagina-
ton. During a political campaign one
must expect stories OF this character,
and it would be unnecessary and per-
haps indecorous to properly character
ize them. Barring its other merits, the
tale is wholly free from any taint of
truth"
This statement was issued last even
ing by Attorney General Charles ].
Bonaparte.

Mack announced today that DR.. Walter
Haines, of Chicago, who analyzed the
stomach of Andrew Helgelien, the last
victim of Mrs. Belle Guinness, finding
strychnine and arsenic in fatal doses,
has also found in the stomachs Of Mrs.
Guinness two children arsenic and
strychnine in quantities sufficient to
have caused death. This discovery has
upset many former theories in the
case, and has opened no the possibility
that Mrs. Guinness, having killed her
children in the same manner in which
she took the lives of her victims, ended
her own life with a fatal dose.

TURKEY IS UNEASY
Demonstrations in Streets Cease, But
Feeling of Uncertainty as to Future
Has Disgusting Effect on Popu-

! Constantinople, July S0.-Altho dem
onstrations in the streets of Constan-
tinople over the granting of a consti-
tuition have practically ceased, there
are signs of much dissatisfaction
among the public at the delay in the
reconstruction of the ministry by the
introduction Of liberal sentiments. The
situation still lacks clearness, and it is
Impossible at present to forecast the
next development with any degree OF
certainty. The young Turks are mas
ters in Constantinople, and the Eu-
ropean provinces, and except in the
capital. the feeling is anything but
favorable to the sultan. Even in Con-
stantinople disloyal cries were heard
during the recent street demonstra-
tions. Hardly any news has been re-
ceived from the Asiatic provinces, and
this is regarded as disquieting.

Fairview, Lincoln, July SQ-Altho
the heat was most oppressive TINS
m ornine, lE:ryan was early at work.
After reading the platform adopted oy
the independence panty in Chicago, he
gave out "a statement In which ne
pointed out a number Of planks ident-
cal with or substantially similar to
blanks Of the democratic platform, and
then said:
"The question that must confront
!, the member. of the independence par
ty is this: Will he assist in the de-
feat of the. democratic party, which
stands for so much that he fayors,
merely because he can not get all ne
would like? Either the democratic par
ty or the republican party will be one
winner, and the voter who, preferring
the democratic platform to the repub-
lican platform, joins with the inde-
pendence party. merely assists the re-
publican rarity and thus defeats several
sreforms In which he is interested.
Take, for instance. the plank IN
favor OF, the election Of senators by
the people, the democratic party has
endorsed that reform in three CAM
paigns. th.i republican congress de-
feated the proposition by an over
whelming vote. II the democratic par
ty succeeds, its members are pledged to
this reform The republican party Is
not pledged. to it, and the republican
candidate has gone no further than to
say he Il personally inclined toward
it. This reform is necessary before
any Other reform can be secured Is
not the independence voter justified in
helping the democratic party to secure
this reform?
80 in regard to labor questions,
tariff reform, determination of the
principle of private monopoly, and the
remedy OF other evils which have
grown up under republican admins
trations. The question is not whether
one can get all the reform that he
wants, but how he can get the most
reform. The democratic party offers
him the best opportunity to secure that
which is obtainable at Ghds time"
