AGREE TOCONFERENCE
Miners and Operators Will
Meet in Toledo, on
April ID.
A BIG ILLINOIS MEETING.

Indianapolis, April An interstate
conference of miners and operators
will be held at Toledo, O., April IA.
The operators of Western Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio agreed to this last
night in a Joint conference with the
miners. The Illinois operators were
not represented. Not even any one
connected with them was present
The agreement for a Joint meeting
was not decided upon until II o'clock.
Up to that time it looked as if the
miners themselves We're opposed 10 a
joint conference. The operators and
Lewis Favors Restoration.
Il believe said President Lewis,
that there is only one thing for the
operators and miners to do. That is to
restore the interstate agreement. The
operators were never as successful as
when they had a joint trade agreement
with the miners. No union of work
ingmen or association of employers
can object to a joint agreement. 1t

HUSBAND ANSWERS WlFE'S SUIT
FOR SEPARATION FROM HER
HUSBAND BY TELLING OF HER
DIsGRACEFUL LIFE.

New York. April 7.-Howard Gould S
answer to the suit of his wife, Rather
tne CIemmons-Gould, for a separation
and alimony, which was filed in the
supreme court yesterday afternoon,
forms the most amazing document
that has ever figured in a divorce trial
sn New York city.
For the first time the name of Dus-
tin Farnum, the actor, is brought for
ward as a correspondent. In addition
MIR. Gould declares that his wife was
grossly intoxicated at many places on
many occasions, and she consumed
daily enough mixed drinks to put sew
eral strong men out of business. that
at the hotels and restaurants she re-
peatedly behaved i'll a scandalOus
manner while under the influence of
that she once broke up a fashionable
card party by biting her hosts in the
arm. and that she shocked wedding
party at st. Thomas church by an
houncing that she saw many old
cats" present.
Mr.. Gould's lawyers accused kath-
crime CIemmons-Gould the eX-act1 ess,
with having secretly met Farnur in
the summer of 1906, with following
him through New England, with ac-
Companying him to his rooms in var
Sous towns. with touring with him
about New York and Brooklyn in her
automobile and with taking him to the
Hotel st. Regis, where she then lived.
Farnum Cause of Trouble.
According to their claim it was the
wife's behavior with the good Hooking
star OF The Virginian" that caused
Howard Gould to abandon his wife.
In addition to the clause involving
Farnum the answer filed by the mil
1ionaire's counsel embodied all the old
allegations which he has previously
made against her-misconduct with
Col. w. f. Cody.
The accusation in connection with
the alleged relations between Mrs.
Gould and Farnum concludes with a
charge that on Nov. 10, 1906, she had
emmodest relations with Farnum at
the hotel Carroll in Lynchburg, Pa.
Mr.. Gould further says that where
as his wife told him her re lations with
Col. Cody prior TO her marriage with
him were lawful, subsequently he
found that these relations were illegi-
simate. He says that she lived in 1889
with Cody in London, Paris, Chicago
and New York and other places under
such circumstances. Mr.. Gould charg-
es that Mrs. Gould's relations with
buffalo Bill" We're continually lille
gal between the years 1887 and 1905.
AS to the excessive use of intoxi-
cants by Mrs. Gould the answer saws
that "since the autumn of the year
1902 the plaintiff has INDUCED in the
excessive use of stimuants as intoxi.
rants, whereby she was rendered quar-.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition OF the mucous lin
ing of the EuStaChian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed YOU have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing and
when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result. and unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition. hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out OF ten are caused by Catarrh

ABUSING TAFT.

Immediately after the Republican
national convention adjourned, the
Bryanites insisted, and gave publicity
to the statement, that corporations had
raised an immense sum of money to
bride Democrats to vote for Taft; that
the money to corrupt the ballot had
been contributed by corporations;
that the Standard Oil Company, the
steel trust, and railway corporations
were among the chief contributors.
No proof was offered in support of
the statements.
When the Denver convention met

been ignorant of the fact that the
Republican party had already passed
a law against corporations contribu-

THE FIGURES FOR IT.
New York Indispensable for Democratic Sue
cess.-Without It Bryan Cannot be Elected.

New York it is agreed on oil hands
Is practically indispensable for demo
cratic success. What is the chance for
Mr.. Bryan to carry New York with
the Independence league and Hearst
newspapers opposing him? The latest
election in New York was last fall. It
was for members of the legislature and
justices of the court of appeals. The
democrats and republicans united on
one democrat and one republican for
candidates. These candidates polled
about 100000 votes. The Inde-
pendenoe league put up separate can
didates. One of these received 114,-
600, the other 121, 900 votes. About
5000 of these votes were cast in New
York city, the rest being pretty we'll
scattered over the state. The socialist
party at the same election polled about
"a, 900 votes and the prohibition party
$4,000 votes.
There is reason to believe that quite
a number of the Independence league
votes cast last fall will vote for Bryan,
but on the other hand he will lose q
good many democratic votes as he
always has in New York. The fact is
that the Bryan electoral ticket needs
the solid support Of the Independence
league to be in the race in New York
and no one knows this better than
the managers of the New York democ-
racy. Besides this the socialist party
is growing vigorously in New York.
1t makes no deals and enters into no
combinations, but has propaganda of
alert, enthusiastic young men and
women who are pushing its organiza'
ton and ideas, especially in the tene.
ment districts, and most of whose con-
verts come from Tammany. Mr..
Bryan needs both the socialist and the
Independence league vote to carry
New York and there are no indica-
tions at present that he will get them.
1t is said that the democratic ticket
can be elected without New York. It
can be, but it is we'll to look at the
figures and calculate the probabilities.
There are now 4S3 electoral college
votes. 1t requires 242 for q choice.
Let US give Mr.. Bryan the solid south.

other things precisely Is he used silver

ment ownership if any opening could
have been found.
The only excuse for representing
that We have q new Bryan among US
is to be found in asserting that the
clothes make the man.
What Mr.. Abbot tells US, after talk.
ing the matter over with Mr.. Bryan,
is that the democratic candidate in
1908 believes the democratic candi-
date in 1896 was right. His concep'
ton of finance has undergone no
change. His conception of political
opportunity has suffered readjustment
literally suffered; for he has his
notions concerning the humiliation
involved in taking "the back trail. !"
The Denver convention afforded more
than one illustration; but his explana-
ton would be that he "would rather
be right than be president" to which
extreme he carries his greatest follies.
1t might be doing Mr.. Bryan ipjus.
tice to say he does not see difference
between the emergency currency leg
islation passed by congress and the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
for which he stood with all his
strength, unless it be the difference in
security on an Independent and ire
deemable basis.
The fear is that Mr.. Bryan knows
better, but has persuaded himself the
people do not.
The silver he speaks of now, with
its intrinsic value, is 16-to.1 silver.
The securities he contemptuously
speaks of are gold securities. If the
congress had authorized the issuance
of emergency currency and provided
for its redemption in unsupported
silver at the ratio of 16-to-1 it would
have properly subjected itself to harsh
criticism.
If it shall be necessary to use emer-
gency currency, the expectation is
that the people will not be able to
distinguish . difference between it and
the forms of currency established in
their confidence when the same is
offered in exchange or presented for
redemption.
There appears to be no excuse for
Mr.. Bryan's comment except to con.
vey the impression that authority to |
issue emergency currency Is Authority |
