MIR. TAFT NOT 10 BLAME FOR BROWNSVILLE ORDER
The President in a Statement As
 sumes the Entire Responsibility

oyster Bay. Aug. 7-President Roosevelt, in a statement issued late tonight, made clear that the entire responsibility was his for the is suance of the original order dis charging the battalion of negro sold iers for alleged participation in the Brownsville, Texas, rioting and his refusal to permit a suspension of the order.
 The president tonight was shown an interview had today in Washing ton with Gen. Henry C. Corbin, U. $. A., retired, in which Corbin stated that no credit or blame in the mat ter rested with Taft. After reading the interview, the president, through his assistant private secretary, gave out the following: Gen. Corbin's statement is absolutely correct and it is entirely proper that he should make it. The substance of the mes sage from the president which was quoted was made public long ago. In the Brownsville matter the en- tire responsibility for issuing the original order. and declining to al low suspension, was the presi- dents"
 In his interview today Corbin stated in substance that Taft was in no way responsible for the order the battalion of the 25th infantry, and that in doing so the then secretary of war obeyed the order of the president.

Money Matters are EngrOssing the Attention of the Head Ot the Ticket-T The Prohibition Nominee to be Guest of the Democratic Candidate.

Chicago, Aug. 7.-Declaring that the prospects for democratic victory were never more bright in a presiden- tial camapign, John w. Kern, the dem ocratic vice presidential candidate was an unexpected visitor at the democratic national committee headquarters, which were formally opened in the Auditorium Annex by National Chair man F. Mack today.
 After two hours conference with Mack on the general situation and discussion by tell ative plans for the speaking campaign, Kern left tonight for Charles City, Iowa, where he will address a Chautauqua meeting to- morrow. Before his departure, Kern confided that his speech of acceptance at the notification at Indianapolis as a matter of precedent will be much briefer than Bryan's speech at Lincoln.

Lloyd of Missouri, chairman of the democratic congress sional committee. selected headquar- ters for the committee in the Auditor ium Annex and stated that he was prepared to continue actively the congressional campaign launched in Washington early in March.

into effect for any events in Ne braska since the passage of the two cent fare law in that state. He also emphasized the fact that the reduced rates to Cincinnati had been offered by the central passenger association
 The action of the railroads is simply a discrimination against the democratic party" said Mack. They state that there is a two cent rate law in Nebraska which will not per init them to> give a reduced rate to Lincoln. But l desire to call their attention to the fact that there is also a two cent fare law in Ohio which did not prevent the granting of a reduced rate to the Taft meet ing at Cincinnati. Besides, as l un- derstand it, many railroads which compose the central passenger asso- citation, are members of the western passenger association"

| Winnipeg, Aug. 7.-Quiet prepara. ton for long siege by the men | and continued reticence regardine their intentions locally, were features | of the Canadian Pacific strike this evening. No men in large numbers have come into the city from either | eastern or western points, although rumors are rife that a large con | tingent is due here tonight. Pick cts are guarding the entrances to shops and all railroad terminals. A number of women have been placed at work cleaning cars. Testing is going on as usual, the work being done by fOremen.
 Mass meetings were held today and addresses given in the native tongue to Hungarians. Germans and Russians. J. II. McVey was asked tonight if other organizations con nected with the railroad was likely to go out soon. He replied. If they are going out very soon, I don't know of it. If they went out without notice they would be brea1- ing ironcla5 agreements"
 The Canadian Pacific railway com Eany yesterday promoted all firemen who have been serving in the local roundhouse as wfpers. Tn placing these men on engines a probable ex- cuse for a strike on the part of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen has been removed.
 When the crops begin to move there will be a larger demand fo- engineers and firemen than at pres ent In the meantime the promoted wiper-firemen have been placed on the spare board" As men are re- quired for road work, they will be drawn from the ranks of those whose names appear on the spare list. Under the present traffic con- ditions many of the promoted men may be obliged to wait perhaps a full month before their services are really required by the company. The pay of the men will be nearly double that of the wipers. The company has been sending bedding into the shops today
 J. H. McVey stated tonight that there had been no suggestion on the part of the men toward approaching the company with a proposal for a settlement. Neither has there been any suggestion by the company that such suggestion would be entertained
 At Moose Jaw, Galicians are being pressed into service by the company. A bridge over the river south of the shops has been taken up by the com pany. The reason for this is to make it easier to defend the shops in case of trouble. Last night some one made an effort to burn the bridge

THE MAIN QUESTION.
How is the National Democratic Cam
 paign to Be Paid For.

Lincoln, Aug. 7.-The WhereWithal with which to conduct the democratic campaign was a momentOus question
 under discussion at Fairview today.
 It had been fully realized that a pro perly conducted campaign requires ad- equate funds to pay legitimate eX- penses, but the question who is to put up the money is one which has been
 the subject of more or less discussion eyer since the nominations at Denver While it is admitted from a number of sources that individual contributions
 of considerable size will be made. the
 decision has been reached that the bulk
 of the fund is expected to come from
 the masses. A sum of not less than
 S5OO,000 is regarded as necessary toI meet the expenses of the campaign.
 The matter was talked over at great
 length today by Bryan with former Senator Pettigrew of South Dakota, a member of the finance committee, and tonight with Governor Haskell, treas uerer of the democratic national com mittee A decision was reached that the finance committee should meet in Chicago on Monday and enter upon the work of organizing and perfecting plans for raising the necessary means for the campaign.
 Of more than usual interest was a statement made today by Eugene Chaf- ing of Chicago, the prohibition nominee for president, of his intention to call on Bryan tomorrow Chafin reached Lin coin this morning and delivered a lec- ture at Epworth Park.
 'I have started my campaign al- ready" said Chafin. My intention is to make at least a hundred speeches before my official notification takes place. Everything looks bright and we will poll big vote"
 When Governor Haskell left the Bryan home shortly before midnight, after an extended conference with Bryan he said that about $19,OO0 had been contributed to the democratic campaign fund. all voluntarily, from six or seven states. Governor Has kell left shortly after midnight for Chicago.

Dover, secretary of the repub- lican national committee has carried out his intention, privately expressed to friends some weeks ago, and has re- signed his position as the official hub of the republican organization"
 Fred w. Upman, assistant treasurer of the committee, expressed surprise at the Daily News announcement. He said: "I saw Dover and Hitchcock in New York a week or so ago. There was no hint of any such action on Dover's part. If there ever was any real feeling between the chairman of the committee and the secretary | am sure it no longer exists.
