416 RAILROADS NOW USE
 UNIFORM BILL OF LADING

Chicago, Nov. 1.-The uniform bill of lading approved by the Inersate Commerce Commission, went into ef- feet on 4i6 railroads in the official classification territory today.
 Hereafter every shipment of freight in the territory east of the Mississippi and North of the Ohio must be made up on the basis of the new form, un. less a shipper objecting to the terms agrees to pay ten per cent more than the regular freight rate. It was cus- tomary to charge twenty per cent extra on shipments not under the old bill of lading. The new form is be- Heved to be universally acceptable It has a distinctive color. yellow, adopted at the suggestion of the American Bankers Association for all "order" bills of lading, which are negotiable and enable a shipper to obtain advance payment through the banker. The difficulty of fixing definite basis for the settlement of claims prior to shipment is also mini- mixed.
 The form of the new bill repre- serts the best judgement not only of tha Interstate Commerce Commission, but of the leading officials of all the nrominent railroads Affected. The Pannavlyania Railroad today announc- a6 that they had more than 1O.000.000 comics of the new form printed. It Is tbrourh bills of lading chiefly that is record Is kept of the county's com mercial activity.

TRUSTS FOR TAFT
ATTORNEY GENERAL BONAPARTE
 ADMITS HI.
But He Tries To Evade The Question By Giving Q Definition of
 The Trusts As He Sees

Baltimore, Md, Nov, 1--Attorney General Charles Bonaparte in an inter view with The American today, as 10 which candidates the trusts are sup porting, said:
 That depends upon what you mean by a trust Now, the vast majority of our prosperous corporations, ike the vast majority of our successful business men, are honest and law abiding, and if all are to be Jumped under the same term, I have no doupt that the great bulk of them do sup port MT. Taft. If. however. you mean by A trust a combination, whether or individuals of corporations, or of ooth' in restraint of trade or otherwise under the ban of our so-called anti-trust laws. the case is different.
 'They expect Mir. Bryan, if elected to urge the passage of absurd laws. which would be promptly declared un- constitutional. if enacted. and they are much less afraid of this kind of hos ttiitv than of a resolute and impartial. hui discreet and unobtrusive enforce ment of the present laws. Partly TOT these reasons, and partly because or their resentment toward Mr.a Roosevelt and his advisers, most of the trust magnates' are, believe. either secret iv or openly hostile to MT. Taft, or else very lukewarm and uncertain In ms sunport; certainly this is true or the notorious trust organs in the press.

 'T feel little weary, but in as good physical condition as ever in my life. ]" Is the diagnosis of himself made by the judge tonight.
 That the strain has been great and the work wearisome. there is ample evidence. Judge Taft has had spe- cial train throughout. It has been in charge of Colonel Daniel Ransdell. SerReant-at-Arns of the United States Senate, and has travelled for 15,000 miles.
 Wendell MischIer. assistant secre- tary. has chung closely to the coat tails of the candidate. and has taken" every word he has uttered. in short hand, and occupied himself between stations in putting the speeches on the typewriter for publication.

'CONFIDTaT OF

 the Popular Vote. Mir. Bryan Left Chicago Yesterday Fer Tour Through Kansas--To Par
 ticipate in "HOme Demon
 stratiOn" at Lincoln.

Chicago, Nov. i.-Conhdent of vic- tory at the election on Tuesday. Will liam Jennings Bryan. Democratic can- dldate for President, left Chicago for a tour tomorrow through Kansas. To- morrow night he expects to reach his home at Lincoln. Neb., where he will participate in a "home demonstration" :"
 Mrs. Bryan left the candidates spe- cial train here today and went direct to Lincoln. More than a dozen boxes of flowers. which had been given her during the trip through Indiana on Saturday, were taken home by Mrs. Bryan.
 Before leaving Chicago. Mir. Bryan said:
 q do not care to make any list of States in estimating the result of the election, for, while 1 think that the result Is more certain in some States than in others, I should not want to discourage Democrats in the less cor- tain States by making discriminations. I believe that we. shall have votes to spare in the electoral college and a considerable majority of the popular vote."
 speaking of his delay in reaching chicago EALurday nl&hts Mr. bryan said:
 'sTha trip arranged for Saturday was long one, with large number of stops. The meetings were unexpectedly large: and in some places the speak ing stands were some distance from the station. We had to ride slowly through the crowded streets to reach the stands. Then there were three changes of railroads. Finally. our To- comotive broke down and the substi- tuta engine had to be turned around at the next station and that caused a delay. I. never before had such se- ries of delays as in this campaign.
 T am very much pleased with the reports ! have had from Illinois, I believe that the Repuhlioan9 of thiz state have an unpleasant surprise conn lag when they read the returns from their State on election day.@

 The unusuc, number of government employees who this year are embracing the opportuni.- to cast their ballots, tn- dicates the intensity of interest taken in Washington in the result of next Tuesdays election. While the Presi- dency, of course. is the overshadowing issue in the L-.nds of electors general ly, thousands of them are interested keenly-many of them personally-in the result of Congressional campaigns in districts throughout the country.
