CAN WELLS CONVICT ADAMS?
NEED GREAT sums
TO RUN THE
CAMPAIGN
Especial TO The sentlnel.1


Washington. July 11.-At the very
collide with "a staggering proposition,
that of raising the money to pay the
railroad fares of speakers and other
workers. This viii be the first presi-
Dental fight to which the railroads
have not contributed from s750.0O0 to
sl.500. 600 in the form of free trans
portation.
The new rate law forbds the issu-
ance of transportation in exchange for
anything other than real money. The
penalty for issuing n free pass is a
fine of $500 to 81. 900. The penalty for
furnishing tickets at a price less than
those quoted to the public at large is
even higher.
Sale of tickets at cut rates would
bring the transaction within the cate
CORY of rebates and Il fine for a rebate
cannot be less than $1,000 nor more
than 10000. not to mention imprison-
ment for giver and recipient
1t is a certainty that the managers
for neither side of the quadrennial
fight can get along without a fund
of 100000 to be used in paying for
railroad tickets.
In some of the western states the
railroads still are issuing passes good
within the limits of the state of issue,
In a ma iority of states. however. even
such helps are no more to be had.
Much of the cost OF subsistence of
public speakers will be borne by the
political committees in the places to
which the speakers are sent. 1t is the
custom. in many cases too. hotel land
lords feel II an honor to contribute the
amount of the usual charge for the en-
tertainment of prominent guest

MURDERED MEMS
BODIES ARE
FOUND
IRy Associated Press. /

Manila. T. l., July 1.-THE bodies of
II. ID. Everett. government forester,
and r. II. Wakeley. school teacheri
who were murdered several weeks go
by tribesmen while they were on an
expedition into the unexplored noun
tain regions of the island of Negros,
have been recovered by Lieutenant
Ahern of the constabulary forces af
ter difficult and dangerous search.
The bodies were found near a camp
in the Bayaual mountains.
1t was learned that Ayhao. the lead
er of the murderers, had planned the
murder while acting as one of the ma
tive guides. While gambling with the
other guides. he drugged the entire
party with the fumes from a certain
plant.
Aynao and his followers then killed
Everett and Wakeley and their fve
guides
The only excuse given by Ayhao for
numbering the party was that he felt
like killing someone.
Lieutenant Ahern endeavored to cap
ture Aynao. but he was deserted by his
guides. ran short of rations and had
to return unsuccessful.
Ayhao is reported to be far in the
mountains with many followers.

When he received the announcement

this statements:
"The honor is the highest official po-
sition in the world and no one occu-
pying it can afford to have his views
upon public questions biased by per-
sonal ambition.
Recognizing his responsibility to
God and his obligation to his country
men, he should enter upon the dis
charge of his duties with singleness
of purpose. Believing that one can
best do this when he is not planning
for a second term. I announce now, as
have on former occasions that If

reelection.
This is a nomination as purely from
the people as can be. and. If elected.
my obligation will be as purely to the
people. l appreciate the honor more

Lincoln, Neb.. July lin a speech
to the returning members of the Lin
coin Bryan Club and the Nebra ska
Travelling Mems Club today. Mr.. Bry-
an expressed the highest admiration
for the democratic platform and for
MIR. Kern. his running mate.
The republican platform he said did
not present what the reform element
OF the party wanted. and therefore
there was much of discoura cement and
disappointment
But the democratic party has Civ
en- us a platform that j believe ex-
presses the deliberate sentiment of
that large and growing reform ele-
ment in this country" he said, amid
much applause. II am satisfied that
it is going to appeal not only to all
democrats, but to a great many repub-
leans.
Mr., Bryan also said that publicity of
campaign contributions would give the
people a chance to elect their choice

fession secured by Pinkerton men
Then. too. they say that ii is quite
possible that McParland's story of his
scriptural admonitions to Adams

to be used as MCFARLAND used them.
These critics hold that Mr.. Wells
bearing on the stand did far more for
the case than MCFARLAND acould have
done.
on the other hand it must be re-
membered that General Wells told his
story in both former cases when Ad
ans on trial. and in neither case
he able to Impress the jury suf-
ficiently with the truth of his story
