SURE TO ATTRACT THE
OUTSIDERS.

That the coming smoker is Great
ing a great deal of interest in outside
camps was manifested by the numer-
GUS remarks made by different dele
gates who attended the recent con-
vention. Several of the Goldfield
delegates, formerly of Colorado, who
know and have seen both boys in
action signified their intention of re-
turning to witness the Labor day
bout. And present indications point
to the largest attendance from Gold

4lstic encounter held in Tonopah.
There will also be good crowd from
Millers. Bud Carberry, who is with

stop small sized riot among some
youths when they attempted to ring
the Methodist bell the night before

of the town authorities. Mr. Ames

Who Wanted to Marry Hazel Drew.

Waterville. Me-, July 7.-Mrs. Nina
Jones mentioned in connection with
the Hazel Drew case is resident of
this city. but could not be located to-
night. Her husband, however. told of
the friendship which existed between
his wife and Miss Drew and said the
latter had been a frequent visitor to
the Jones house while they lived in
Troy. Miss Drew had few male ac-
quaintances. but there was one man,
dentist in Troy. n. Y, who, ac-
cording to Mr.. Jones. had asked the
girl to marry him. Mr.. Jones was
positive that this man was the
only one mentioned by Miss Drew to
him or his wife.
While the Jones family was living
in Providence, r. l.. last May. Miss
Drew visited them for several days
This was the last time the girl was

IS Thrown Out Of the Case
Of Hazel Drew.
Doctors Say She Was Dead
When Body Went Into Pond.
Officials No Nearer Solution Of the
Teal Pond Mystery.

Troy. N. ", July 1.-THE Teal pond
murder mystery after six days of in
vestigation becomes more and more
battling and those engaged in the at
tempt to solve it are fearful that I'M
less something develops at the coroners
inquest which may be held Saturday
to throw more light on the case the
murderer of Hazel Drew may never be
known.
The suicide theory has even been re-
vived but the physicians who perform
ed autopsy all insist that the girl WAS
dead before her body was cast into
the stagnant water of the Mill pond.
The statement of Miss Carrie Weaver
in Dayton, ohio, Friday that she and
Hazel went or trip to New York on
July IL and returned on the following
day is evidently an error in dates
The girls made the trip to the metro
polls on Friday, May 20. and returned
here on the following Monday morning
Hazel ut that time told her friends
that she intended to take trip to Lake
George on the Fourth of July, and when
she left the home of Mrs. f. c. Cary,
where she was employed, on the morn
ing of the Fourth Mrs. Cary supposed
that she was going to make the Lake
George trip. While she had told her
friend, Carrie that she was going on
the lake trip, Mrs. A. NJ. Green, where
Carrie is employed said Friday that
Hazel had not asked Carrie to &C.
company her.
Hazen spent the Fourth with her
aunt. Miss Minnie Taylor at Rens-
salaer park, this city. and in Science
tady. Hazel was with me here and in
Schenectady on the Fourth" said Miss
Taylor Friday She had intended to
take a trip to Lake George and wanted
me to go with her, but l did not want
to go there on that day because the
trains are so crowded on holidays. Ha-
gel did not inform Mrs. Cary of her
change Of plans but l am sure she had
not intended to deceive her"
Hazel apparently had propensity
for travelling. She had made several
trips to New York, Boston and Provi-
dence.
District Attorney O'Brien today re-
ceived a letter from Mrs. Nina Jones
whom Hazel visited i'm Providence. She
said Hazel had no male companion
while sha was with her. Mrs. Jones
is now living in Watervile, Me.

GoMPERs' BIG JOB.
Can He Deliver the Support Promised
Democratic Ticket?

New York, July 17.-What support
President Gon,pers of the American
Federation of Labor can give to the
Democratic ticket which he is quoted
as having pledged himself to support
and how he expects to influence other
votes in the unions outside of his own,
were questions that puzzled the unions
in this city yesterday. Secretary Ed
ward Hourigan of the New York
branch of the International Associa-
ton of Machinsts said:
1--WE are waiting to know how Mr..
Gompers proposes to keep his pledge.
NV union is in the American Fedora
ton of Labor but that does not give
him power to promise the support of
my union for Bryan. 1 would like to
know Just what he means by saying
as president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor that he will support Bry-
an. He cannot call on the unions to
support any political party, and as to
influencing them by argument the
voters know how they are going to
vote and can think for themselves
While some of the labor men said
they could only talk for themselves in
dividually, and were waiting to hear
from Mr. Gompers, Julius d. Davis, a
member of the United Garment Work
ers and an ex-member of the executive
committee, who has been in touch with

MANY S0UTHERNERS
REPUD|AT|NC BRYAN.
Mr.. Taft's Mail Loaded With Letters
From Democrats Volunteering Their
Support In Field and at the Polls.

Hot Springs, Va, July 17.-Demo-
Gratis of many Southern states are
writing to William II. Taft declaring
their purpose to vote for him and to do
whatever possible to secure his cleo
ton. Letters of this kind form one of
the most interesting features Of Mr.
Taft's daily increasing mail. From
Democrats in Maryland, kentucky,
Tennessee, North Carolina and Georgia
he has letters assuring him that in the
belief of the writer's, those states will
give their electoral votes to the Rerub-
lican ticket in the coming election.
While Mr.. Taft reads the letters with
interest, he receives information that
there is hope of carrying Georgia with
a feeling that on the part of the writer
the wish is father to the thought. In
tense feeling against policies of Hoke
Smith in that state is looked upon as
the foundation of the bitterness of
Georgia Democrats toward the election
of Bryan as they look upon Bryan and
Smith as representing the same ideas.
From Maryland, especially, Mr.. Taft
has q large number of adviceS from
Democrats that they expect to see the
state go Republican and there will be
many Democratic votes to help carry
it. Many of these Democratic corre-
spondents have declared that the nom
ination of Mr.. Bryan is doubly repug-
nant to them because they believed his
defeat in two campaigns had disposed
Of him as a candidate of the Demo-
cratic party and they believed there
would be a new leadership of the party
to represent what they regard as true
Democracy.
Mr. Taft's mail is constantly increas-
ing and Southern letters are forming
a considerable part of it. While these
expressions from Southern Democrats
are regarded as the most interesting
feature of the opposition to Mi. Bryan
within his own party, there are many
others from Democrats in the North.

THE HARDEST FIGHT
Will Be West of the Missouri Says
Chairman Hitchcock.

Chicago, July 17.-Frank Hitchcock
chairman of the Republican national
committee and James Williams, Jr.. a
member of VIM. H. Taft's political
staff, arrived here today from Wash
ington and will leave tomorrow for
Colorado Springs, where representative
state charmen and members of the
national committee from states west
of the Mississippi river will confer
with Mr.. Hitchcock on July 20 and y.
regarding the Western campaign. Lat
er a similar conference will be held in
Chicago at which the leaders from
Central states will be present and after
that the Eastern Republican leaders
will meet Mr.. Hitchcock in New York.
Mr. Hitchcock said today that the
hardest battles would have to be
fought west of the Missouri river and
that he planned to secure the best
political assets ever available for the
reason that state chairmen confined
their efforts in the main to their own
territory. Mr. Hitchcock will try to
wipe out the state lines in carrying on
the campaign.
1--WE want to show the people that we
are at work and mean business" said
Mr. Hitchcock. "There is not q state
that will be neglected not state that
will be abandoned to the other party
Mr. Hitchcock thought that 1t Is safe
for Mr.. Taft and on account he said he
may devote much of his time to the
West, with headquarters at Chicago.
This will not be determined until later,
however.
Mr. Hitchcock expressed satisfaction
at the consolidation of the national
and congressional bureaus for the
handling of speeches, literary matter
and supplies. In addition to the head
quarters which will be established in
New York on Aug. and in Chicago
few days later. an office will be opened
by the Republican committee either at
Denver or Salt Lake City.
Mr. Hitchcock spent the time today
talking with the agents of buildings
which offered rooms for political quar-
tiers.

Appeal to Farmers
by Bryan and Kern

FairView, Lincoln, Neb., July IL
The first appeal for contributions by
Democratic candidates for the Presl-
dency and the Vice Presidency was
made today. In a formal message di-
rected to the farmers of the country,
Bryan and Kern urge them to contrib
ute according to their means and in
other ways assist in raising Democracy
to power. The plans are as follows:
ITO Farmers of United States:
"The first contribution made to Dem
ocratic campaign found this year so far
as we knew was made by an Iowa
farmer. just before the Denver con-
vention met, this man, who modestly
prefers not to have his name mention
cd, journeyed more than 100 miles to
Lincoln with his contribution Of 500
which he left with Mr.. Bryan to be
given to the committee when organ
lied for the campaign.
This farmer was born in Sweden
and for some time after he was nat
uralized was a member of the Republic
can party. But he was student OF
public questions and in the course OF
time became a Democrat. To manifest
his deep interest in the success of the
party and in the triumph of Demo-
cratic principles he made this free will
Offering to the campaign fund.
1T is very appropriate that this first
contribution should come from that
great body of our population known
as agriculturists The farmer has
nothing to gain by privilege and fav-
oritism; his hope is the application of
4 ,cs ricr1f &c. RI n n
special privilege to none He had
been the victim of all kinds and had
suffered control of the politics in great
predatory corporations. Now that the
Democratic party has announced its
determination not to accept contr1bu-
lions from corporations and not to ac-
cept excessive contributions even from
individuals and to publish contribu-
lions when over a reasonable minimum
II ought to be able to secure a suffi
cient sum from the citizens who ask
from the government nothing but pro-
lection to their rights and considera-
ton for the nations welfare. There
are hundreds of thousands of farmers
who are abundantly able to contribute
to the campaign fund There are
thousands who could give $50 apiece
without sacrifice and still more who
could give s25 or $40 or SIS.
"As the national committee has not
yet been organized, we will ask the
commoner to call for subscriptions to
this farmers fund. Those giving may
indicate whether they are willing to
have their names mentioned and If
the contribution is not more than 500,
their wishes will be complied with. All
contributions over 800 must be made
public, no matter from whom they
come
1.-The farmers fund will be turned
over to the national committee as soon
as IT'S permanent officers have been
selected Who will be first to respond?
The Denver convention was peoples
convention; it adopted strong. clear.
honest platform and its nominations
were made with practical unanimity
