Japanese Entertainment Plans
Dlsarranged
DEPARTURES NECESSARY
The American Sailors Will Be Given a
Great Reception-Something Is
Planned for Every Moment
Of Their Stay.

Toxic, Oct. 1.-THE announcement OF
a days delay in the arrival of the Amer,
lean battleship feet has caused some,
thing akin TO CONSERVATION in Toxic
and Yokonoma, because of the necessity
for wide departures from the program
of entertainment which had been ar.
ranged up TO the last minute detail
Officers OF the Japanese navy who have
taken active part in the preparations
have been in constant consultation with
Commander joan A. Dougherty, the ma
val attachc at the American embassy
The date Of various social functions has
been changed and the feet is expected
TO depart on Sunday, October 25, instead
of on the day preceding. No word had
been received from Rear Admiral Sperry
since early yesterday morning. AT 1890
a. m. the sixteen battleships were of
Cape Shiomi, about four hundred miles
south of the entrance 10 the harhor.
The tender Yankton, preceding the fleet,
Is slowly approaching Yokohoma and
may possibly enter during the night.
The weather is cold and cloudy and the
sea is still very rough.
A published report to the effect that
one OF the vessels of the fleet became
separated from tho others in the storm
is ABSOLUTELY untrue. II is supposed that
the rough weather has compelled Adj
miral Spsrry TO take the feet away from
the dangers of the coast, far out TO sea,
where they would be beyond the sphere
of the wireless.

night to a crowd of all political beliefs,

cratic leader of the senate, Mr.. Culber-
son, support your franchise plan of con.
trolling trusts as set forth in your
platform and your Indianapolis speech
on that subject"
"Are you willing that public poll of
Democratic senators shall be taken as
to whether they will support or oppose
you in your principal policiesf"

DAUGLAS WINS LABOR
DISPUTE ON WAGE SCALE
Staet Board Upholds Firms Contentious;
the Unions Charges Fail.

Brockton, Mass, Oct. 1.-THE State
Board of Arbitration and Cancellation
yesterday handed down a decision sus'
tanning the w. L. Douglas Shoe com
pany in its controversy with the Boot
and Shoe Workers union on charges OF
contract violation preferred by the UNI
ion.
There were fourteen specific allega-
tions in the charges preferred for the
union by General President John +. To-
bin. The decision upholds the company
in all. The chief complaint was that
the Douglas firm had violated its con-
tract with the union by putting wage
schedule into effect without the consent
of the union, as required by the terms
of the contract.
The state boards decision follows a
controversy which has been existing be-
tween the company and union since last
January. II began when the Douglas
firm transferred the manufacture of its
$3.50 shoes from No. factory to No.
2, where the $500 product is made.
The union eontended at that time that
the firm had no right to make such a
transfer without also transferring prices.
The state board sustained the first trans
fer. A ptransfer back TO factory No.
j, without relative transfer Of wages,
was also upheld by the board.
General President John F. Tobin of
the Boot and Shoe Workers union said:
The Douglas company has been notified
by our union that the union stamp con-
tract with them viii terminate on No
vember |. This is a reafirmation of a
notice made last April"

GOD MADE TRUSTS,
D0LLIVER ASSERTS
Divine Laws Equal to Task Of Regulat-
ing Them, He Tells Audience.

Reno, New. Oct. Ex-senator Dolliver
Of Iowa declared last night before an
audience here that God made the trusts,
not man, and that God would be respon-
sible for their regulation. Senator Dol
liver said in part:
Trusts are governed not by any
statute, but ~ the laws God made for
the protection of his own people, The
laws of God are equal TO the task OF
regulating the growth OF the trade"
Citing the law of maximum consump-
ton, Senator Dolliver said that il was
to the interest of the trusts to make
prices low so that consumption would
increase; that sugar sales increased and
the profits thereof with the reduction
OF the price and fell with its advance,
"The sugar trust" he said SIS in
the hands of the author of the uni.
verse;"

BIGGEST BRYAN FUND
GIVER is TRUST LAWYER
Charles J. Hughes Shown Up BY Judge
Lindsay as Corporation Attorney
Wanted Crime flushed Up.

New York, Oct. 17-The announce
ment that Charles ]. Hughes, an attor-
ncy of Denver, was the largest individ.
ual contributor to the Bryan campaign
fund came as shock today to many
downtown who have knowledge of cor
porations affairs IN the West.
Charles J. Hughes is the attorney
for the Republican Utility corporation"
according to Judge Lindsay Of Juvenile
court fame. In the course of his pam.
phlet, The Rule of Plutocracy in Colo
rado," Judge Lindsay describes how Mr..
Hughes. instead of trying certain graft
ers, tried me-" adding:
"He said that | was an migrate" to
have exposed them. His logic was That
/ should have shut my eyes to the
stealing because they were Democrats
and owned the office of Judge, and had
given it to me--a Democrat. i was un.
faithful to my friends and my party;
but he made no claim that | had agreed
to caver up crime. His logic was tnat
| had erred in 9esuming that she
office belonged to the people or that |
owed them any duty whatever"
Judge Lindsay has good deal to
say about Md. Bryan's largest indiyid-
qal contributor. Under a caption, "The
Grafters in the Saddle" Judge Lindsay
writing of caucus, remarks:
among the leaders present was
Charles j. Hughes, one OF tine ablest
men in the state in the Democratic
party, prominently mentioned for Unit
ed States senator and likewise the
greatest corporation lawyer in the en-
ploy of the public service corporation"
Another reference to Mr.. Hughes is
made by Judge Lindsay in these words:
bryan, the great railroad magnate
in New York city, who, with mis- law
yers, is to New York and the nation
exactly what Boss Bill Evans, E. h.
Field and their lawyers, Mr.. Hughes
and Milton Smith, are the Denver and
Colorado"
