Expressions of Deep Sorrow in All Houses of Worship for Tragic Death of Rector
 of Christ Church
TRIM|TYS RESOLUTIONS
Special Meeting of Vestry Held---Rev. Frederick M. Burgess Speaks Fcel- ingly of Deceased Rcctor---
 Other Tributes.

At the services in the various churches. and more especially tho Episcopal churches, throughout the city yesterday expressions of deep sor- row for the death of the Rev. pr. G Brinley Morgan, rector of Christ church, and of sympathy for his fami- ly and his parishioners were uttered. The rectors of the churches took spe- cial occasion to speak of the sudden death that had taken Dr. Morgan from the life of the community in which he had been so large an actor for so long a period of time.
 At pr. Morgan's Church.
 At Christ church. where Dr. Morgan was rector for twenty-two years, there was large congregation and great sorrow was expressed on all sides. Rev. Frederick NJ. Burgess, the as- slstant rector of the church, spoke feeingly as follows:
 There will be no sermon this morning. I have no heart to preach one, and you, I am sure, have no heart to listen. Our sense of loss is too re- cent, too severe, too overwhelming to express adequately in words at tnis time. Most of Us are only to cry out as Elisha did when his master was taken from him My Father My Fa- ther. The chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof
 But the sense of loss should draw us closer together and closer to the Heavenly Father whom our dear fa- ther here loved and served so we'll His thoughts were always for others. first fo. Gs and I commend to your notice the words of to-day's epistle Phillip ians l. S-1D. They came to us al- i most as a personal message from him who being dead, yet speaketh
 ''He nad us always In his heart, and he would that our love should abound and rnore, approving the things that are excellent, since and without off, fense until the day of Christ.
 To-day we should look forward and backward, backwa 'd with grati- tude to God for the life that has been lived here among us--the value and extent of whose influence can best be measured by human standards. God only knows how far and how deep 1t may reach.
 And then we must look forward | with courage-trusting as he trusted and believing as he believed-for God Is with us--and We have right to be confident that the work which hath begun In us He will perform until the 1 day of Jesus Christ"
 At special meeting of the vestry of the church In the afternoon the fol- | lowing committee was appointed to draw up resolutions on the death of Dr. Morgan: Prof Charles S. Bald- win, Frederick c. Earle and the Rev. Mir. Burgess. The resolutions will he presented to the church in the near | future
 Trinity Church Resolution.
 At Trinity church yesterday morning the rector, Rev. Charles 0. Scoville, made mention of the death of Dr. Nor gan, paying him a fine tribute as 8 man and clergyman, After the morn ing service a special meeting of tho vestry was held, at which resolutions were adopted, which will he engraved and sent to pr Morgan's church and

be against the Interstate Commerce
law it would not be because of strict
construction ideas about the constitu-
ton.
The attitude of Senator Foraker, in
Ohio, is causing the Republicans no
small concern in that section. While
he has completed his replies to the let
tiers of John D. Archbold, of the Stand
ard Oil Company, as made public by
William R. Hearst, and is satisfied to
rest his case on his replies, the Senator
is in anything but friendly mood
toward the dominant Ohio Republicans,
who gleefuly seized upon that incident
to put him out of national politics.
The Senator refuses to say anything
further to the detriment of the Nation
al ticket or that will further infame
the negro vote in the Middle West,
which vote is resentful of the treatment
accorded him, as its champion in the
Brownsville case, by the administra-
ton The Senator has not gone out
upon the stump in Ohio as he threaten
ed at one time to do, and it is claimed
now that he will remain inactive. It
is not probable even that he win prose
cute his own campaign for reelection
to the Senate. AS has been generally
stated and as is quite generally con-
ceded by his political friends and foes
alike, he win hardly be reelected now,
save only if Ohio should give an ad-
verse majority for Taft and if the Ohio
legislature should, in that event, also
remain Republican.

Party of Strict Construction.

But the Western people have been
made as uneasy as the Eastern people
have been quieted by this kind of sug-
gestion. They argue that the Demo
Gratis are naturally strict constructions
lists and that justices of that persuasion
are less likely to preserve the Inter.
state Commerce law, which is coming
before the Supreme Court in the course
of the next two or three years on a
number of important points of con-
stitutionality. Mr.. Henry Wallace, of
Des Moines, editor of Wallace s Farm.
er, Republican of Bryan sympathies,
voiced that fear the other day when
he said ne was apprehensive of what
might happen to the Interstate Com
merce law, if Bryan should come in.
1t is not generally known that Mr.. Wal
lace was very instrumental in having
the Interstate Commerce law drafted
and that he was one of the most in
fuential of all the men who inaugurated
the crusade for the enactment of that
measure. On the other hand il is felt
that Mr.. Taft can be depended upon
TO name conservative men for the
bench, but men who will not be strict
constructionists as that term is applied
in law and politics. If Mr.. Taft 9

though the men who work with then
hands were going to decide the election
and say whether Bryan or Taft shall
be President. One sees Republicans Oh
every side shaking their heads dubious
ly about the industrial vote Then the
radical western sentiment, which dem
onstrated itself in the galleries of the
Republican national convention last
June, has not been eowed. In fact ii
is still rampant. No one can prophesy
what it is going to do when it gets
into the voting booths. Occasionally
the Republicans obtain some comfort

ties but again and again these reports
have been offset by developments in
favor of the Democrats.
The Western denunciation of Presi-
dent Roosevelt s appearance and parti,
cipation is becoming a big factor. At
first it was thought the injection of
ginger would do good but the very
Western people who were expected to
approve of the President activity
seem now most pronounced in condemn
ing it.
81 had intinded to vote for Mr..
Taft, - said an Irish laborer in st. Paul
the other day, "but not now. Why,
begorra, should I vote for Taft whin
the President is trying to club me into
doing it?"
But from out West here it looks now
as though Bryan could not be elected
without the electoral votes of some
Eastern States. For that reason the
presidential contest wakes in daily in
terest. The Western fighting ground,
this side of the Rockies, has been mar
rowed down so that it now virtually
comprises the states of Nebraska, Ohio,
Indiana, Wisconsin and Kansas. The
wisest ones say there is no doubt about
Missouri being for Bryan. He has been
campaigning there to crafty a large
and enthusiastic following that wanted
him a while in their midst, for about
the same reason that Taft has been
going into some Southern States, ex-
cept that Taft has no hope of carry
ing Southern States. He wants to en-
courage the Republican party in that
section to be something but a party
after the offices.
Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota can be
eliminated as far as the electoral col
lege is concerned. The Democrats con-
cede those states to Taft.

Much Sympathy for Foraker.

Without question, however, there is
very general feeling of sympathy for
the brilliant Ohioan that his appearance
as an attorney for corporations years
ago, before the people had become anita
gonistic to lawyers in public life accept
inc retainers from big trusts, should
now be used to arouse popular prejudice
against him. It is widely recognized,
by those familiar with public affairs,
that nearly all the prominent men in
Senate and House, lawyers by profess
sion, accepted such retainers for legal
services that had nothing to DO with
legislation
Those who have talked privately with
Senator Foraker recently find him very
bitter indeed and taking no interest
whatever in the success of the Repub-
Iican national ticket He has said that
the state is undoubtedly drifting away
from Taft and that there must be a lot
of hard work done to keep it from
going to BRYAN. At the same time he
realizes that it is not his business to
Jump in to try to save the state to the

Bryan and Commodities Clause.

One topic that Mr.. Bryan has eschew-
ed in his campaign speeches thus far
and which greatly interests the West
ern people, is the decision of the Uni
declaring the commodity clause of the
Interstate Commerce Law unconstitu.
tional and therefore null and void.
Judge George Gray, of Delaware, Con-
sentative Democrat, who refused the
nomination for the Vice Presidency on
the ticket with Bryan, was one of the
three judges who handed down that
opinion and one of the two who made
the majority of the court.
While Mr.. Bryan has preserved a
discreet silence about that decision,
which, unless it is reversed by the Uni
ted States Supreme Court, will knock
out one of the most important fea-
lures of that law, it was permitted to
leak from the Democratic National
Headquarters in New York that if Mr.
Bryan were elected, he would likely
elevate Judge Gray to the Supreme
Court bench and, in the event that
Chief Justice Melville W. Fuller, now
eligible under the age clause to retire,
should wish to cease active service he
would make Judge Gray Chief Justice.
This was plainly political output to
Offset the arguments of Republicans
that Mr.. Bryan would name radical men
to the bench, as Gov. Hughes and others
have been saying that the next Presi-
dent would, in all probability, have the
nomination of four of the nine judges
of the court.
