CRANE NOW DIRECTS
G. 0. P. CAMPAIGN
Massachusetts Senator to
Make Things Hum Until
November.
HITCHCOCK is TOO SLOW.
HAS NOT PUSHED AFFAIRS OF
PARTY AS MUCH AS HE COULD
HAVE DONE AND REFUSES TO
LISTEN TO "OLD HEADS"

Cincinnati. O.. Sept. Ex-senator w.
Murray Crane left last night for Chi
cago. to take active control of the re-
publican national campaign.
Chairman Hitchcock, while practic-
ally relieved, still retains the title, but
the Massachusetts man will attempt to
make things hum. Mr.. Taft declares
Hitchcock is to be retained. He re-
fuses further comment.
Senator Crane. before leaving, de-
clined to talk. He carries ample au-
thority to take entire charge of the
campaign.
From Chicago. Mr.. Crane will go to
New York and open offices in connec-
tion with the headquarters of the re-
publican national committee.
A number of incidents and condi-
tions are said to have led to the change
of affairs. The chief n is the fact
that Mr.. Hitchcock failed TO get things
started in the campaign.
Another charge against him is the
fact that he is too secretive. Those
who have had opportunity to observe
the manager say this is his great fault
He wanted to keep everything to him.
self and to do this he attempted ev.
erything himself. In otner words he
tried to go on the theory that if he did
everything nobody else would find out
what was going ON. The result was
not exactly what the nominee for the
presidency and his colleagues desired
Then there is declared to be an ap
parent lack of appreciation for the ser.
vices and advice of others. 1t is re
lated that prominent men who called
at headquarters to see the chairman
were compelled to wait a long time be
fore he was ready to receive them.
And then the card index" system
upon which so much responsibility
rested, failed to respond. 1t was al
right. but not just what was needed.
Senator Crane was President Roose
velt's choice for national manager, bu'
he refused to accept at first on a plea
of age. AS the head of the advisory
committee. Senator Crane is to direc'
the campaign from this time forward
1t is said he will, with other tried lead
ers, show the younger men how al
election campaign for the presidency
should be managed.
New York, Sept. 21.-Chairmar
Frank H. Hitchcock of the republican
national committee, started for Chica
go Sunday to spend today and Tuesda.
at the Western republican headquar
ters. He expects to return to New
York Wednesday,. He telegraphed tt
Senator Crane. who has been visiting
Mr.. Taft in Cincinnati, to meet him il
Chicago today.

HASKELL MAKES
OFFER To HEARST
Says II Journalist Can Prove
Standard Charges, He
Will Resign.
WANTS A NEWSPAPER JURY
HOWEVER ARE FOR BRYAN
THIS YEAR-osJEcTs TO LAWS
DELAY IN MATTER.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-C. y. Haskell.
of the Democratic national committee.
wants a Jury of three or five newspa-
per editors to try him on the charge
made by w. r. Hearst that he sought
TO influence Attorney General Frank
S. Monnett of Ohio TO dismiss suits
against the Standard oil Company in
1899.
In a denunciatory statement direct
ed last night to MIR. Hearst in New
York, Governor Haskell asked his &C
cuser to appear with him before these
editors, inc stated that he would
withdraw from all connection with the
present presidential campaign il the
charges against him are sustained.
The editors proposed, by Governor
Haskell are all supporting the candi-
dacy of Mr.. Bryan and several of them
are known throughout the country as
bitter opponents of Mr.. Hearst and his
journals. The five newspapers pro-
posed by the accused Democratic
treasurer are the Springfield Mass
Republican, the Chicago Journal. the
New York World. the Indianapolis
News and the ST. Louis Republic.
In proposing this means of deter
mining the truth or falsity of the
charges against him, Governor Has
kell referred to the laws delay in civ
ii suits or libel suits for damages, and
reiterated his declaration that the
charges were false.

Peoria, ILL.,, Sept. 21.-John Mitchell

with industrial and political conditions
as he has found them in the United
States. He has for several months

after a brief and Intellectual effort TO

The loss is estimated at SIS. 600, 900,

be involved through the complete in

THE SITUATION is BAD.

Pittsburg. Pa. Sept a1.-Eighty per
of the coal mines along h
Monongahela river are idle and thou
sands OF miners are out of employ
ment as a result of the low water In
the Ohio river. Practically all the coal
from the district Is shipped by river.
but for several weeks the water has
been so low no shipment could be
made. The consequence is that every
barge is loaded with coal awaiting
shipment and no more coal can be
mined until empty barges are received
to store it in. The situation is said
to be the worst in recent years. and
unless there is sufficient rain TO raise
the river, enforced idleness will cause
much suffering among the miners.

story part of his book a uccess
His idea is that the novel is an ad
mirable medium for setting forth mod

he regards as the faults of the present
Industrial and political system. 1t Is

Mitchell is an omnivorous reader
but his taste does not run to novels
except such as treat of living ques
tons. His fear has been that his own
novel might prove to be too heavy.

you won't let it do its work. You take
away the materials which are so
necessary for it to use.
Give back these materials and dys.

What the stomach needs is nerve
force, fluids for it's digestive, glands,
nourishment and power. All these ne,

dyspepsia gives nothing to the blood,
the blood gives nothing to the stom,
ach.

simple and unalloyed.

katt,r SCREAMING Feats.

The Kafirs are great swimmers. They
can do things In the water which other
folk would look upon with astonish-
ment. For example. n Kafir boy can
ford Il stream shoulder high, running
as swiftly as II shot from a torrent
The way they accomplish the feat is
thus: Just before entering the water
they get n huge stone. sometimes as
heavy as themselves, and with the help
Of a companion place 1t upon the head.
A weight like this gives the boy bal.
ance. and he can keep his footing
against the heaviest tream. IL he were
to drop the stone he would be SO light
that the water would sweep him OF his
feet. And this is just one of the Kafir

A Curious Animal.

1t will doubtless surprise many who
have never even heard of the brute
that there still exists on the island of
Java an animal, or. rather. a reptile.
which seems to be the missing link be-
tween h ichthyosauri Of prehistoric
days and the well known saurians of
modern times. This animal is known
to the Javanese as ''linguin." 1t fell to
the luck of Baron Alfonso Pereira. con-
sui general of Austria Hungary. to
shoot n Of these beasts some years
ago. Its length was between nine and
ten feet. and 1t looked a cross between
a snake and a crocodile. Though the
beast was cut and wounded in it's en-
ounte with Baron Pereira, it did not
bleed.

In one OF his delightful books DR..
Jessopp remarks that whereas coun-
try people look up Londoners look
down. 1t is largely this habit that has
limited their observing powers, but
London has itself to blame. l take it
that one can observe well only by the
power of taking large views, and in
London this is impossible, ven II one
would, partly from the circumscribing
effect Of bricks and mortar, partly
from the dim light of a London dis
lance and partly from the need Of
avoiding collisions. Ones eyes uncon-
sciously acquire a habit of restricted
vision; our observation s~pecializes, like
that Of the little girl in Mrs. Meynells
book who beguiled the tedium Of her
walks by collecting shopkeepers named
Jones. Perhaps that Is the kind of OBJ
%servation for which we in London are
best suited.-London Outlook.
