In the evolution by which party gov

TEDDY MAY SPEAK

PHONOCRAPH
IRy Associated Press

New York. July 17.-If the president
will consent, his voice will be heard in
the coming campaign. even though he
remains quietly at Sycamore Hill or in
the White House at Washington.
He is now asked to make a number
of speeches into the receiver of phon
ograph, the speeches. of course. to be
of his own choosing. but preferably
bearing upon some of the vital ques-
tions of the campaign.
An agent of one of the large talk
ing machine concerns has laid the mat
ter before the president through Sec
retary Loeb. The agent called the sec
retarys attention to the fact that his
phonograph company has ten or doz-
en- records of Mr. Bryans voice.
While. of course it is not possible
to announce officially the presidents
decision. the odds are largely against
the phonograph concerns hopes. 1t is
not likely that the president will care
to engage in phonograph joint debate
with Mr.. Bryan.

decision applies to the sports now go

played at the various clubs, such
tennis at the Queens Club and the ri
fie matches at Bisley; but the difficulty
in arriving at an equitable method of
alloting the points is great that the
matter has been dropped.

tary of the association. said today;
The newspapers of the different

In a formal message directed to the
farmers of the country. Messrs. Bryan

The appeal says that the first con-
tribution this year came from an Iowa
farmer. a Swede. who journeyed more
than 100 miles to Lincoln to give 800.
The appeal calls attention to its ap-
proprateness, as the farmers have been

SHOULD HE
HAVE DIED?
A Remarkable Statement Supposed to Have
Been Written by the Priests Murderer
Made Public Sentiment Changes

Canon City, Colo, July 17.-1t was
made public today that a signed state
ment had been given by Ala, the muir
derer of Father Leo, to Antoine Sassoe.
an Italian guard at the prison. This
statement was not to be made public
until after Ala had died and he was
executed on Wednesday evening and
the statement was given out last
night.
In this statement ALA declared that
the priest whom he killed was an ltal-
ian priest for whom he worked for
five years while in Portugal and who,
he declared. dishonored his wife. He
said he recognized Father Leo as this
priest when he first saw him at st.
Elizabeth's church and he visited the
church several times before shooting
him to insure himself he had made no
mistake. AS Father Leo had never been
in Portugal or Italy it is believed to be
doubtless that Ala identified him
while he was in a delusion.
Alias confession follows:
Sunday, July ~.
/ first met this priest in Portgeseaul
and l worked for him, and he pay me
very little money and at that time he
told me to send for my wife and so
did. and / found out that he was inti
mate with my wife. and things went
so far btween my wife and this priest
that / went back to Sicily and took her
with me, and only done this to avoid
trouble.
And after l left Partgeseaul, he, this
priest, the same man. he was caught
intimate with another married woman
bv her husband and struck with
hatchet in the head. and the scar ex
tended from the top of the forehead
and led down the side of his nose.
And then he was taken to a hos
pital and everybody thought he was
dead. but he recovered and afterwards
was sent secretly to Germany, and af-
terwards, | think, he passed as Ger
man priest, as he passed as one here
in America. so / have been told by you,
Tony, and know him and am not mis-
taken at all.
When l came to Denver from New
York | had no idea of seeing him or
that he was here.
Here is the way / first saw him:
| thought / would go to church one
morning. 1t was on Sunday. and so
did, but ! did not go there that Sun
day morning for no harm, nor did l
thing of doing him any harm.
And as soon as l laid my eyes on
this priest / knew it was him and l
was surprised, but to make sure of it
/ went to church three or four times.
and Ithen saw it was the same priest.
And you men remember as ! told
you before, l worked for him for five
