KERN NOTIFIED
OF NOMINATION
BRYAN WAS TIE PRINCIPAL
SPEAKER YESTERDAY AT
INDIANAPOLIS.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. William
j. Bryan, the democratic candidate for
president, delivered a keynote speech
on the trust situation today in con-
nection. with the notification of his
running mate, John W. Kern, of the
latter's nomination for the vice-presi-
dency
Mr. Kern also delivered his open
ing speech of the campaign. He
briefly went through the platform of
the democratic party emphasizing it's
salient features. He discussed the
tariff revision, calling attention to the
republican view for their presiden-
tial nominee TO ''stand pat on that
important measure.
Mr.. Bryan fiayed Taft and the re-
publican leaders who blocked the en-
forcement of the existing antitrust
law, and the republican reform, which
he declared was lukewarm on the sub.
ject of private monOpolies.

the schooner was under an attach
ment, which was served last-week by
an officer OF Justice Lambright's court.
Renders cl The News win remember
an artltia published in these columns
a few days ago to the effect that a
longshoreman in Charleston had
brought suit against the schooner for
$4,000 Messrs. Crovatt & Whitfield
were employed and they at once had
papers issued out of Justice Lam
bright's court An officer served the
necessary papers on the mate of the
vessel, the captain not being aboard
when he visited her, and later a Gus
todian was placed on board. 1t is
understood that a few days later the
captain made the custodian leave the
schooner
The captain Of the vessel did not
furnish the necessary bond, but his
vessel had been attached The work
Of loading continued, however, and
was finished last Saturday. The cap
tain prepared for sea and sailed out
of port Monday morning. Whether
he Intentionally intended to go to sea
in the face of the action of the court
or not is not known, but it is under
stood that steps will at once be taken
to have the vessel attached when she
reaches New York and acquisition pa
pers may be secured and the captain
brought back to this city on a charge
of contempt of court.

Heard in Waycross.

WAYCROSS, Aug. 25.-Atlantic
Coast Line freight train No. 2OS, north.
bound was wrecked at Andrews Fla.
early this morning, and it was re.
ported here at first that several had
been killed in the accident. The
train went into a burned trestle at
Andrews, and one report said that
the engine and nearly all cars had
passed over before the trestle gave
way. Another was that the engine had
plunged through the trestle, killing the
engineer, Mr. Alex Wright, and Con
ductor Jim Hilton. These rumors
were traced down and so far as can
be found out no one was killed in the
wreck.
superintendent McCranie was out
of the city when a representative of
the press called to get the official re-
port of the wreck. The hospital car
was not sent with the wrecker this
morning.

local telegraph office of the company
last night, and there it was stated
that no information had been received
in this city regarding the reported ac-

1t is true, however, that the wreck
did occur and that wrecking machines
were fastened to its scene and that
all passenger trains moving over the
line during the day were blocked and
compelled to go around via Everett
City to make their runs Whether it
is true or not that the four men were
killed could not be established.

THE LAST HANDICAP SHOOT.
Will Be Held by the Brunswick Gun
Club Friday Afternoon.

SIhD FNTNStuSOhs
The special handicap shoots which
have been held by the Brunswick Gun
club during the past three weeks,
which have been for the clubs two
medals and for a handsome trophy
donated to the club. will come to a
close Friday afternoon and it is likely
that one of the largest crowds of the
season will be out.
Besides shooting for the two pretty
medals the shoot will also decide who
is to receive the trophy. 1t was ar
ranged to have three shoots for it,
the member making the highest aver
age during the shoots to be the win
ner. Three or four of the members
are right together in their averages,
cnly one or two birds separating them,
and they will all endeavor to win the
pretty trophy.
For Friday week a freak" shoot is
being arranged, the details of which
will be announced later.

SOUTH CAROLINA
HELD ELECTION
GOVERNOR, SENATOR AND CON.
GRESSMEN ALL ELECTED
YESTERDAY.

COLU-dBIA, S. c., Aug. 25-Demo-
cratic primaries were held in this
state today for the election of q Uni
ted States senator, a governor, seven
congressman and other state house
officers. The race for senator has
attracted the greatest interest and
there were four or five candidates for
the office.
Early returns received from ma
jority of the counties indicate that
Mayor Rhett, of Charleston, and e. D.
Smith, another of the candidates, win
have to go into second primary
Smith seems to be slightly in the lead
but it is practically certain that Meth
Ter will receive a sufficient number of
votes, and they will have to make a
second race.
Governor Ansel was opposed for
denomination by State Senator Blease
but the returns now at hand give the
governor big lead and he will un-
|doubtedly receive the nomination.
