Omaha, June 3.-Mayor James C..

tional committeeman for Nebraska, in
an interview stated that the money
referred to in a statement published
in New York recently as having been
contributed to the Democratic cam
paign fund in Nebraska in 1904 by
Thomas F. Ryan, through w. F. Shee-
han, was received and disbursed by
him. He said he wrote Sheehan imme.
diately after the Democratic state con
vention that there was no hope of
carrying the state for Parker, but in
October he sent T. S. Allen to New
York to secure money for use in an
attempt to elect G. w. Gerge governor.
Said Mr.. Dahlman:
I'VE got $4,000, not 100000, in
three payments, and it was all turned
over to me and I spent it all in the
state campaign, not N penny of it
going into the national campaign or to

Chamberlain will carry Multnomah
county by about 400. 1t looks as if he
would have a very slight lead in the
country, but it is impossible to fore
cast the result outside of Multnomah
county.
Prohibition was a hard fought issue
In twenty-nine counties and while the
tally clerk cannot give any figures of
a definite character the indications are
that a large majority of the counties
voted dry"
Single tax has been beaten.
r Woman suffrage has probably been
defeated. No estimate can be made
at this time on other initiative and
referendum issues.
Later returns from counties outside
Multnomah show Chamberlain picking
up. Multnomah county shows greater
gains for Chamberlain and unless all
signs fail Chamberlain will be the
peoples choice for United States SEN
ator by a plurality of more than 1000.

.,IAC UP PLATFORM
cnference at White House De-
cides on Various Planks.
TAFT PRESENT At MEETING
Resolutions to Be Presented to Chi
cage Convention Take Advanced
Ground on Tariff, Control Of Trusts.
Currency and Limiting Injunctions

~ IN iStteI
Cincinnati, June 3.-The planks to
be presented to the Republican ma.
tional convention It Chicago, as de-
cided on at various conferences at
the White House, are given in &
Washington special to the Times-Star
as follows:
The Chicago platform will take adj
vanced ground on the tariff, on con-
troll of the trusts, on the amending Of
the Sherman law, on the currency
and On the question of limiting the
power of injunctions. In other regards
it will stand squarely on the policies
which have been the success of the
Roosevelt administration. H. the
rough it will be drafted by Wade Ell.
lis, attorney general of Ohio.
Such were among the decisions
reached It a White House conference.
There have been erroneous reports as
to the identity of these who attended
that conference, destined to be a his.
torical one. The accurate list is as
follows:
President Roosevelt, Secretary Taft,
Secretary of the Interior Garfield
Wade Ellis, Senator Long of Kansas,
Senator Hopkins of Illinois, Frank. B.
Kellogg, national committeeman from
Minnesota; Congressman Longworth
of Cincinnati and William Loeb, e C
rotary to the president.
At the meeting the entire subject
was discussed. The topics most ex.
~haustively considered were the tariff,
the trusts, control Of the railroads,
currency, the conservation of national
resources, improvement of waterways,
Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines and
the Panama canal. The order in
which these topics are to be present
ed to the convention was tentatively
agreed upon, subject, of course, to the
approval of the resolutions committee
of the convention.
Attorney General Ellis presented a
plank providing for an amendment to
the Sherman law, under the provisions
of which harmless agreements among
mercantile associations, which seek
not to create monopolies or to fix and
control prices, but merely to protect
the legitimate channels of trade, will
be allowed. Such a provision would
also exempt the harmless acts of Ia
Dor organizations.

spondent to libellant by stating the

ITALIANS STORM BANK.
Riot Follows Closing Of Small Institu'
ton at Cleveland.

Cleveland, June 3.-Five hundred
Italians stormed the closed doors of
the private banking house of Gaetano
Lolita and had it not been for police
interference would have forced an en-
trance. AS soon as the doors of the
bank failed to open at the accustomed
time the bank was surrounded by
italians. Rumors fed fast and men,
women and children focked to the
place where they had deposited their
savings.
The crowd threatened to break in
the doors and a riot call was turned
in. A squad of policemen soon arrived
and drove back the excited Italians.
Lolita, it is said, cannot be found.
The total deposits do not amount to
more than 100000.
