Louisville, KY, May After ehav-

seated delegates in all save a few
of the contested counties during an
alI-night session of the committee on
credentials the Taft men were APP
parently about to put their slate of
delegates at large through without
hitch at today's session of the
Kentuck Republican convention
when their plans were endangered
and the slate apparently broken.
Instead of winding up the business
of selecting delegates at large to the
Republican convention in an hour or
two, there was session lasting from
10 o'clock until $50 o'clock, when,
after hours of disorder, wire pulling
and suspense, the Taft men finally
won out and elected the following
delegates at large, instructed for the
secretary of war to the Chicago con.
vention: Governor A. e. Wilson
Judge A. N. Burnham, w. Marshall

Defends Policy Of RefOrestra.
ton and Teller Wants
States to Do Ii

Washington, D. c., May I'm re.
ply to Mr.. Heyburn's attack on the
forestry policy of the administration,
Senator Depew of New York today
in the senate, spoke at length in de-
tense Of forestry reserves and the
reforestation of lands. Only the
other day, he said, New York state
had received 100000 trees from Ger.
many for use in reforesting the Adj
rondacks.
Mr.. Depew said he understood that
every day when a great newspaper
goes to press it consumes ten acres OF
spruce. He commended the action OF
President Cleveland in inaugurating q
system OF forest reserves by setting
aside 20,000,O00 acres, which was in
creased to 40,000,000 under President
Mckinley, and now is 150,000,000
acres.
In the last two years, he said
France had spent $50,000,000 for re
forestation, in view of the enormous
damage to property and homes of the
people by foods.
Mr.. Teller said the work of New
York state in reforestation was tht
kind he approved. He objected to
having the general government GO
into that business. 1t was for the
states to do such work within theil
borders. He objected to the voting OF
lump sum of 100000 for the for
estry division.

Pittsbufg Bank Loses Nearly
q Quarter Million Dol,
lars by Theft
Trusted Cashier Got Away
With the Goods Was
Prominent in City

sittsburg, Pa, May William
Montgomery, cashier of the Allegh-
eny National bank for over twenty
years, was arrested late today on the
charge Of embezzleing $4,000 of
the banks funds. He was arranged
before United States Commissioner
Lindsay tonight and held for the
federal grand jury under a bond of
$4,000, which was furnished.
The financial standing of the bank
is in nowise affected by the defalca-
tion as it is in position to bear the
loss without embarrassment. The
alleged defalcation was discovered
and complaint filed by National Bank
Examiner William L. Folds.
According to Examiner Folds the
populations have gone on for sever
al years and were covered up on the
occasion of each visit of the exam
liners by means Of cashiers checks
Mr.. Montgomery has always been
prominent in politics and was close
friend of the late Senator Quay.
Examiner Folds expressed the be-
lief after making the charges, that
Montgomery had used the funds OF
the bank to assist friends who were
in tight places financially. Those
who know the cashier feel positive
that he did not personally profit by
his populations.

METHODlSIS

VERY Liberal
Address Of the Bishops Urges
Taking Lid Off Dancing
and Things
FdvOfs Interstate Liquor Law
COMMITTEE Sees Can
non About II

Baltimore, M. D., May Bishop
Goodsell of Boston, was easily the
central figure of today's session of
the quadrennial general conference
Of the Methodist Episcopal church,
by reason of the fact that it was he
who read the address of the bishops
and that this address, always mat
ter of much interest, contained this
time matter of unusual Importance.
Although its expressions relative
to the liquor question evoked the
greatest amount of enthusiasm,
doubtless it's most important senten-
ces were those embracing recommen-
dations for the bishops touching
paragraph 24S of the church disci-
pine, which is the paragraph relat-
ing to amusements.
The address recommends that
from paragraph 248 certain words in
dicated but not quoted in the ad-
dress, be stricken out. The exact
words are: dancing, playing at
games of chance, attending the thea
tire, horse races, circuses, dancing
parties, patronizing dancing schools
or taking such other, etc"
This recommendation is followed
Immediately by declaration of the
bishops that grave injustice will be
done if their recommendation is in
terpreted as an abandonment of the
early opposition to worldly amuse-
ments, and that it is indeed a re-
turn to the principles and exact
words of John Wesley.
The immediate outcome of the
| bishops treatment of the liquqor
| question was the adoption of reso-
luton favorable to the Littlefield in
F.! terstate liquor shipment bill now be-
! fore congress, which resolution is to
be laid before Speaker Cannon
of the house of representatives by a
committee tomorrow

PAPER
Investigation Goes Merrily On
Newspaper Men Tell
Their Troubles

Washington, D. c., May That
there will be no secret record in the
committee of the house investigating
the wood pulp and print paper ques-
ton was made evident today, when
Chairman Mann refused to receive
from witness in confidence the
names of certain newspaper publish.
ers. The incident arose during the
testimony Of G. L. Knight, publisher
of the Akron (Ohio) Beacon-J ournal.
Mr.. Knight had stated that to his
knowledge the increase In the price
of paper had wiped out the profits Of
number of papers. in Ohio, and in
fact had forced one of them to the
necessity of borrowing money to meet
the payrolls. When called upon by
Chairman Mann to give the names OF
these publishers, he declined to do so
on the ground that the information
came to him in personal manner
and that the publishers had been "hit
hard enough already without pro.
claiming to the world that they were
bankrupt" He did say, however, that
he would give the names to the com
mittee in confidence, and that the
committee could summon them and
they could tell their experiences if
they SO desired.
Chairman Mann refused to receive
the names under this condition, stat
ing that If he was able to prevent II
the committee would receive no infor-
nation that did not go into the rec
ord
A large number Of publishers of
newspapers in different sections OF
the country were examined today, and
they all told the same story OF the
steady advance in the price of paper.
Among the publishers heard was Frank
B. Moves. president OF the Associated
Press and editor and publisher of the
Chicago Record Herald, who told of
going into the market, owing to the
fear of a scarcity of paper. and buying
1000 tons OF paper at $2.45 per 100
pounds, when the maximum of his
contract with another company was
1910.

San Francisco, CAL, May Eight
thousand blue jackets and marines
the largest armed force the American
navy has ever put ashore in time of

never ending crowd, the fighting men
of the fleets made their way.
Twenty-Five hundred soldiers of the
regular army, in full dress, acted as
escort. Rear Admiral Evans, COM
handing the feeN, and six other rear
admirable in command of squadrons
and divisions rode in carriages.
Admiral Evans was quickly recog-
nized by the thousands in the review
ing stands and was loudly cheered as
| the carriage moved at the front OF
| the column. Secretary Metcalf, Gov
ernor Gillette and Mayor Taylor rode
in the parade and afterward reviewed
| it as it countermarched down Var
Ness avenue.
In addition to the soldiers and sail
ors, there were large representations
| from the national guard and semi
military veteran and civic organiza
lions. A battalion of natty little high
| school cadets from Salt Lake City
acted as personal escort to Admiral
Evans in token of his having been ap
pointed to the naval academy iron

New York, May 7.-Buffeted by seas
which a bowling southeastern sent
over the shadows of the short beach
until she was all broken amidships.
the four masted Peter Rickmers, with
a hundred men on board, lay in po-
sition of extreme peril tonight. When
night closed in and shut off the view
the vessel was being swept from side
to side by the white seas. Only her
jigger remained, and on board was
her crew of 40 odd men, and the 60
wreckers put aboard to iettison the
cargo of case oil and to kedge t.. Big
Dutchman out into deeper water.
Once lines were flung across the bow.
but the wind and seas swept them
away.
All day the lifesavers awaited the
calming of the storm, which would
enable them to send their surfboats
to. the distressed vessel. Rough seas,
however, continued and the wreck had
not been reached by night. At late
