SPEECH WILL FORM THE
PLATFORM IN ELECTION
Declared That the Government Was
Dallying With Socialism Which
Meant the End Of All Things-Tar.
III Preferable.

Glasgow, Sept. 11.-Lord Rosebery
finally cut himself adrift from modern
radicalism as exemplified by the house
of commons nowadays in a straight
talk" today to the business men of
the north vehemently denounced the
budget and it's authors.
The ex-premier's speecf has been
awaited eagerly by those opposed to
the budget, as it was expected to give
lead to the house of lords and fur
nish platform for fight for gen.
eral election on which the moderates
of all parties would be able to FORE
gather.
Lord Rosebery who prefaced his re-
marks by saying that he intended to
express his unadorned opinion without
Quips or cranks, characterized the
budget as revolution which put the
future of Great Britain in the melting
pot and which in the best interests
Of the nation should not become law" /"
He declared that the first result
of the budget would be an immediate
increase In the ranks Of the unem-
ployed through a great depletion of
capital. The arguments advanced for
taxing land applied logically to con-
soils and all other forms of realized
property. Scores of millions were
lying idle in the banks at the present
moment owing to the apprehension
regarding the financial policy of the
government, which proposed to treat
all landlords as pariahs. If the Lloyd
George budget was the only alterna-
tive to tariff reform, Lord Rosebery
declared, many would cease to defend
the doctrine of free trade. He said
the governs2ent was dallying with
socialism 3, kich was the end of all
The interest in what Lord Rosebery
had to say was SO widespread that one
enterprisihg London newspaper re-
ceived reports of his speech by tele-
phone from Glasgow to London, a
distance of over four hundred miles
and had verbatim eight columns of
what he said on the street a few min
utes after the speech was completed.
Lord Rosebery's address was dis
cussed keenly in the house of COM
mons, and the prevailing opinion in
the lobbies seemed to be that the fate
of the finance bill had been sealed
thereby and that the house of lords
would reject It.

INCUBATOR BABY
KIDNAPPING CASE
Trial Of the Famous Contro-
versy Now Under Way at
Topeka

Topeka. Sept 1.-THE preliminary
hearing Of Mrs. Stella Barclay and
Joseph Gentry for kidnapping Marian
Bleakley in Topeka last month was
begun before Judge Simon of the city
court at 9 o'clock this morning. When
court adjourned at noon the hearing
was not half over.
There was little brought out this
morning additional to that which has
already been published. The drivers
of the kidnapping motor car admitted,
however, that they knew they were in
q kidnapping case when they saw
Gentry come to the waiting car with
the baby. They contended that they
were afraid to notify the police be-
cause of a huge revolver that Gentry
carried. Although Mrs. Barclay was
with the party all the time It was
Gentry who was the chief in the en-
tire enterprise.
A Big Crowd There.
The courtroom was packed almost
to suffocation. There were scores of
women present, many of them carry
ing babies. while large number of
schOolbOys and girls were on hand.
When Mrs. Bleakley, accompanied
by her mother, entered the room there
was a buzz. while there were several
whispered feminine that's her." How
ever. when Mrs. Barclay came into
the room. accompanied by her attor-
neys, there was even louder whis-.
tpered stir than was caused by the en-
trance Of Mrs. Bleakley. She was at
tired in gown of blue, soft material,
and stylish black hat. From the
moment she took her seat it was cler-
ly noticeable that she was extremely

ment Of Commander Peary's recital
OF his expedition to the North Pole
was published in special edition of
the Matin today.
The Temps is especially caustic
and expresses the opinion that the
nrst part of Peary's recital is really
favorable to DIR. Cook.
1t says that Peary's story is OBJ
scure and even inconsistent pointing
out particularly that whereas his
dairy up to March Is. is scrupulous-
~ precise. thereafter 1t shows a hia-
tus and the dates are obscured and
confusing. For instance when the
story stops, Captain Bartlett had been
sent back.
THE expedition was then in S7.4s
and still far from the Pole," the
Temps says. "Peary now proceeds
alone and whatever suspicion was
raised against DR.. Cook is equally
applicable to him. Peary's recital up
to the present time offered nothing
more worthy of credence than Cook 8.
II 1t is true as affirmed, IL at polar
obsession creates sort Of madness,
any hypothesis, even the most unfa-
vorable. is permissible against both
explorers"
The Figaro says: Nothing is more
painful than the spectacle of this
quarrel on the threshold of glory. It
embarrasses the sympathy which
naturally goes out to those two great
men. Returning to civilization they
encounter jealousy, envy. calumny,
ignoble pickering and hatred of sue
cess; they become the prey of parlor
explorers and savants, who raise OBJ
jections where they risked their lives.
Their cavilry is not ended"

HARTMAN FUNERAL STILL

dred and Fifty People but Friends
From All Parts Of the Country Will
Attend.

Arden, N. Y. Sept. 11.-one of the
last men to talk with e. H. Hartman
before the relapse of last Sunday that
ended in his death, was J.. P. Morgan.
The financier came to the Arden house
Thursday of last week when the en-
couraging improvement noted in Har-
riman's condition was at its height
and in spite Of his bodily weakness
the head of the Union Pacific system
was as we'll fitted to discuss the busi-
ness as at any time in his life. For
nearly an hour the two leaders of
finance sat on the porch in the sun.
1t is believed that at this conference
the plans were laid to support the
financial market in the event of Har-
riman's death or In case his health
forced him to abandon all business
activity. Morgan's country estate on
the west bank of the Hudson Joins
that of Hartman.
When this conference occurred. Har-

though he kept this information from
his family, and steadily encouraged
their belief that he would get we'll,
no one saw more clearly than Har-
riman what would probably happen
when he died. For the sake Of the
thousands Of railroad stockholders as
we'll as for his own interests, he
knew that unless the strongest power
In the country got under" the mar
ket, the effect Of his death would be
disastrous. This, without doubt, IL
why he called in Morgan.
The Hartman fIneral continued to
be the main topic of conversation in
this vicinity today. The little church
at Arden with its seating capacity of
only $50 cannot begin to accommodate
the crowd that will attend the public
memorial services or even the So
called private ceremony at 3 o'clock
in the afternoon. Messages of con-
dolence continued to arrive at the
Arden house.
