St. Joseph, Mo-. Oct. 5.-The real Ta1t
invasion of Missouri began today at
noon here, the candidate will speak
CONSTANTLY in the state until tomorrow
night. concluding them with a demon
stration at st. Louis. The first MIS-
souri, audience was composed almost
entirely of voters, the men who work
IN the stock yards at St. Joseph. where
Mr. Taft spoke in the rain from the
steps of the stock exchange. He was
presented by John Donovan OF the ex-
rbanpe who said he did not appear
under false pretenses. He was, he
added a Democrat, but he knew Judge
Taft to be a thorough American In ev-
erv particular and to have clean rec
ord Of great achievements. ana snouIo
he he elected president. there is moth
ine would not feel it a privilege to
do for him"
This speech was received with cheers
NV the men who not only filled the
Street in front of the exchange, but
stood on the low roof of the stock
Yards opposite. Replying to Mr.. Don
ovan- Mr.. Taft thanked him for his
conrtesy and frankness and added:
..-rha word Democratic is historical
description. 1t does not mean that a
man who is a Democrat will always
vote the ticket of that party"
AS is his usual custom in speaking
IN labor audiences, Mr.. Taft analyzed
the labor situation with reference to
the two parties. He referred briefly
10 his own labor record and again de-
clared himself to be the friend and
NOT the enemy of labor. What he said

voice did not reach, struggling cheers

WIRES ARE KEPT HOT.
The Powers Are Trying Hard to Pre-
vent q War.

London, Oct. 5.-Turkey is not in
clined towards war with Bulgaria, ana
it is believed that she will call con-
ference OF the powers to consider the
matter of Bulgaria's proclamation OF
independence.
Indications from the other capitals
of Europe are that the powers Will
intervene to prevent hostilities In the
Far East All the chancellories OF Eu-
rope are busy today with efforts TO
discover a modus vivendi which Will
result in the maintenance of peace.
France has decided to act as
mediator for the purpose of prevent
ing war between Turkey and Bulgaria,
of foreign affairs is today actively
engaged in negotiations to this end
which he began week ago.
Great Britain has also made media
tory proposals to the governments of
Turkey and Bulgaria. Germany, it is
herself with these proposals. and will
not counsel Turkey to go to war.
The proclamation of Bulgarian in
dependence has been Immediately pre-
ceded by a conflict between Bulgaria
and Turkey concerning control of the
Oriental railway in eastern Rumelia.
Bulgaria took possession of this line
in September because of q strike and
started to operate it with her military
forces. When the strike had been
SeILleQ, she refused TO return COllA Va
to Turkey, which action led to a
sharp conflict between the two states.
In spite of the peaceful endeavors OF
the powers concerned in this near
eastern difficulty the military forces
of both Turkey and Bulgaria are pre-
pairing for eventualities. The Turkish
army is stronger numerically, but the
Bulgarian army is in a better con-
dition of efficiency.
Thriving for Peace.
That all energies are being bent to-
wards the maintenance of peace is
clear. The foreign offices of Europe
are keeping the wires hot today in an
satisfactory to the powers chiefly con-
cerned that shall take the place of the
treaty of Berlin. This Austria Hun
gary and Bulgaria have torn up and
thrown into the faces of the sig
natories of the convention which has
governed the situation in the near
east for the past 80 years. The ac-
ton taken today by Bulgaria and
Austria-Hungary is particularly con-
demned in all official and diplomatic
circles at London, but at the same
time the British government is pre-
pared to cooperate in any pacificatory
steps which may be decided upon by
the powers concerned The main Id ca
is the prevention of warlike out
break.
NEWS HO less inter IMAM luS
act of Prince Ferdinand is brought in
the Vienna dispatches to the effect
that Austria Hungary has practically
decided to annex the occupied
provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Emperor Francis-Joseph has ad-
dressed an autograph letter to the
heads of all states, in which he ex-
plains the necessity OF altering the
political status of these provinces.
This communication is being delivered
today.
Prices on the bourses of Europe
have fallen sharply on these two
political developments.

New York, Oct. 5.-'The result of
the Chicago -Pittsburg game is most
pleasing to u.s." said J. ]. McGraw,
manager of the New Yorks, and we
should tie with Chicago now. L shall
probablv send Wiltse in today, Ames
on Tuesday and Matthewson on

chance now.

the pennant to be played off in three
In perfect score for the remainder
of the season now lies New York's
only hope of winning the National
league pennant. With three games
remaining to be played New York
must win them all even to tie with
Chicago in the pennant race unless
the league directors should vote to
give New York a disputed game with
Chicago, which at present is recorded
as a tie In that event three sue
cessive victories for New York would
give New York the flag. There ap-
pears to be little likelihood, however.
that the decision of the umpires In the
game now in dispute will be over
turned and the followers of the game
look towards the series between New
York and Boston which begins in this
city today as the result of the real
test A tie at the end of the season
would necessitate a play off between
the leaders and it is likely that an
additional series of three games would
be arranged for that purpose. The
home teams remaining three games
will be played with Boston on the Polo
grounds in this city. Neither Pitts
burg or Chicago have any more games
to play this year under the regular
schedule. The standing of the lead

Base Ball Notes.

Since our last issue the Cresco ball
team has played three games. On
Monday they met the Charles City
team ct that place and were shut out
by score of to 0. Charles City did
the trick with the aid of Viva Linda
man, Boston National League pitcher.
Contributing also to the defeat was the
illness of both Burke and Sanders, who
were out of the game
The next game was at Garner where
Cresco again met Charles City and this
time defeated them by a score of / to
O. This victory pitted Cresco against
Clarion who had won from Belmond,
and this game was crowned with a
supreme effort at dirty ball by the
Charles City management. 1t is re-
ported that Charles City paid Clarion
SIS for their chance-$15 more than
they would receive if they lost the
game, and then proceeded to form a
team picked from all Cresco's rivals at
Garner assisted by four big league men,
and called it the Clarion team. In
spite of all thi. Cresco held them to
tie with no scores on either side until
the beginning of the 18th inning. The
sports of the town had bet 5 to 2 on
Cresco and the money was taken by
the managers of the Garner tourna-
ment, it is alleged, and to win for them
little rotten umpiring was necessary.
Our boys cannot be accused of laying
previous defeats to umpiring and when
they say the decisions that lost them
this game were rotten, we believe it.
Three or four glaringly bad decisions by
the umpire, one in the face of base
ball rules regarding blocked balls, gave
Clarion (?) two scores in the thirteenth
inning.
The same aggregation defeated the
Hopkins Bros team of Des Moines
yesterday.
Sanders is i'll and went home for a
while and did not return with the boys.
The Haskell Indians defeated Deco
rah on Tuesday, Calmar on Wednesday
and Harmony yesterday. Can Cresco
repeat the Colored Gopher performance
today?

mhns after election. The standpatters,
having practically all but one of the
nominees on the state ticket, and hav-
ing In Taft one of their own, naturally
consider public discussion at this time
"lnopportune. " They want the pro-
gressives to go to the polls and vote
the ticket straight. If they do that,
then the standpatters will have all they
want save one thing, and that the SEN
atorship. There will be time enough
left to get that, and with it secured
the progressives will be cleaned out bag
and baggage. It's neat trap, but
we doubt that it will fool single pro-
gressive republican Telegraph.
