GOVERNOR OF UTAH IS
ASKED TO GIVE SHIRT
FOR PUBLIC DISPLAY

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 5.--william
spry, governor of Utah, is torn with
conflicting emotions. He has received
from the National Association of Laun-
drymen request for shirt-one that
he has wOrn--tO be entered in display
of gubernatorial garments mt the annual
convention in Richmond, Va, next
month.
The governor wants to oblige the
laundrymen, but finds it difficult to de-
eide which shirt to sacrifice. The reIa-
tions between the governor and his shirts
have been very close. When tentative
selection is made old associations are re-
called that make the thought of parting
unbearable. 1t may be necessary to sub
init the matter to the supreme court, as
Gov. Spry insists that 1T involves the
constitutional question of the right to
bars arms.

SPOKANE, Nov. 5.-Braced by the
mig free breakfast offered by the In
dustrial Workers of the World to all
who would promise to speak on the
streets today, a number of orators APP
reared on Main avenue and were gath
cred in by the police before their
speeches were well started
At the iail the bread-and-wate diet
is maintained for all convicted street
speakers who refuse to break rock, with
three good meals a day for all who
work. 1t is believed few of the pris-
oners will yield today, but tomorrow
may see a break in the ranks.
A number of speakers are expected
here from Kalispell, Mont, the advance
guard having arrived during the night.
Can Be No Peace
Among the bulletins posted by the l.
w. w. is one declaring;
"The 1. w. WIS and the police have
nothing in common.
There can be no peace so long as the
police use clubs and hose and the l.
w. w. use pen and tongue. Between
these two a struggle must go on until
the 1. w. w. civilizes the police"
Other bulletins refer to the chief OF
police as "Pinhead" Sullivan, while the
mayor is branded at Gear Pratt
Up to noon only eleven street orators

Strict orders have been issued by
Police Commissioner Tuerke that every
convicted prisoner shall be given
bath, "and if they refuse to bathe them
selves then in order to add to the sani-

bathed by officers and TRUSTEES"
Councilman Resists
In the crowd that followed Crane
and his captors down the street was
Councilman John Gray, who did not
move fast enough to satisfy an Of

The latter showed him ahead with
no gentle touch, whereat Gray angrily
exclaimed, 'T'm a councilman, officer,
I'd have you understand"

moved.
Earlier in the day eleven arrests
were made. In police court Justice

Woman on Trial in Paris Withstands
Terrific Ordeal Until Late in

IBy Associated Press. ]

nARIS, Nov. 5.-After having with
stood for nearly three days a mer-
\ oiless examination at the hands OF
the presiding Judge of the court OF
assizes, where she is being tried on
charge of numbering her husband ana
her step-mother, the iron nerves OIL
Mime, Margaret Steinheil gave way late
today, and she was led out of the court
room in a. state of utter collapse.
Several times before the climax came
restoratives were administered When II
seemed as though Nine. Steinhell was
about to faint, and each time she re-
covered quickly and replied to the in
terrogations of Judge M. de Wales.
When today's session began M. de
Wales was fearful lest the strain was
proving too much for Nine. SteinheiL
but this solicitude evoked from Nine.
Steinheil the unhesitating statement
| that she was not at all fatigued.
M. de Wales thereupon led her
| through labyrinth of questions sur
rounding the case with his wonted re-
lentlessness, and Nine. Steinheil, with
| her ever ready wit, answered them
| quickly to the point or when they
! seemed unduly compromising pleaded
for justice and not vindictiveness.
Once she made a plea direct to the
| jury that they believe her innocent, de-
/ claring that in the hour of her ad-
versity erstwhile friends who had par
taken of her hospitality had utterly
forsaken her.
To Save Daughter
Again, when pressed closely by M. de
| Wales as to why she had declared GER
| tain Jewels had been stolen at the time
of the murder, when in reality she had
! concealed them, Nine. Steinheil, her
eyes burning brightly and moistureless
| behind the pallor that the walls of st.
Maizare prison have imprinted on her
cheeks, cried out that it was to save
! her daughter from the knowledge that
| her mother had n lover.
| AS to her accusations against Bur-
! lingham, an American newspaper man,
and others whom she charged with
completely in the crime, Nine Steinheil
said In her frenzy she had taken re-
course in anything that seemed to give
promise of clearing herself of the
charge.
1t was just after a savage attack had
been made upon her veraeity by the
| Judge that the climax came.
| Steinheils attorney protested, but the
J Judge retorted hotly that the accused
| woman had lied throughout-that her
story was a tissue of lies.
Special policemen were examined con-
cerning what they saw at Nine. Stein
| heiIs house after the murder.

KERN CRITICISES
SOME SENATORS

Indianapolis, July 17.-At banquet
club here tonight John w. Kern, re-
cent democratic candidate for vice
president, took occasion to criticise
the action of certain democratic SEN
Rtors on the tariff bill.
Said Mr.. Kern: During this session
of Congress new doctrines and strange
ones have been promulgated on the
democratic side of the Senate cham
Der.
at will be for the next democratic
national convention once more to set
tie the question as to where the DEM
ocratic party stands on this question
of tariff taxation, and in the meantime
it will be incumbent upon the constit-
uents of some of the senator's to pass
Judgment on the question as to wheth-
er they have been properly represented
in the Senate of the United States
by these men who have onpenly re-
pudiated the platform declarations Of
their party and betrayed the interests
they promised to serve.
"The contest over the pending tariff
measure has produced good results.
Scales of great size have fallen from
the eyes of our own Senator Bev-
eridge, who has finally discovered that
the tariff Is a tax which the foreigner
does not pay Some of his recent
preachments have given his democratic
friends much hope that as he advances
In years and accumulates discretion he
may become a pronounced advocate OF
true tariff reform"

THE SHAH SAYS HE
HAS ADVOCATED

Teheran, Persia, July 17.-Mohamed All
the dethroned Shah, now in the Russian
summer legation, has declined to receive
deputation to inform him of his deposit
ton. Spahdri and Sardaradasad of the
nationalist movement. sent the following
telegram to the British and Russian le-
cations last night:
I'm accordance with the decision of the
national council which met today at Ba-
haristan, it will be necessary for a depu-
tation from the council to wait upon his
majesty, Mohamed Ali, to notify him of
the change Of sovereigns. AS his majesty
is at present a refugee in the Russian
legation under British and Russian pro-
lection, we request your excellences to
fix time tomorrow when his majesty
may receive the deputation."
The ex-Shah replied this morning
through the legation as follows:
His majesty states that, having taken
refuge in the Russian legation, he has,
ipso factor, abdicated; therefore, he does
not wish to receive a deputatlon which
comes for the purpose of informing him of
the fact"
Mohamed Ali probably will depart short
ly for Russia. 1t is believed the Queen
Is DESTROYS of accompanying him, tax

MEXICO MOVED BY
POLITICAL ISSUES
Denial Is Made of Existence of
Revolutionary Plot
DIAZ is RENOMINATED
Opposition Has Arisen To Ramon Cor
raj for the Vice Presidency and
Many Want General Reyes
For the place.

Mexico City, July 1.-THE Mexican
has no evidence of any revolutionary
plot, such as that reported from San
Antonio. 1t is further claimed that
nothing is known of the alleged ac-
ton of the Washington authorities
relative to the precautionary steps
taken to preserve the neutrality Of the
United States in the event of an out
break.
Conditions in Mexico are more agi-
tated than for some years owing to
the approaching presidential election
which will occur in 1910. President
Diaz has been renominated for the
seventh time, and has no open opposi-
ton, but his running mate. Vice Presi-
dent Ramon Corral, is bitterly OPP
posed by a large element of the people,
who are clamoring for the election of
Gen. Bernardo Reyes. the present gov
ernor of the state of Nuevo Leon, and
the former minister of war and marine
in the cabinet of President Diaz.
General Reyes persists in the state
iiCAl lhal AiC 10 iOI SdhdiAotS Iva
any office. but administration papers
are accusing him and his followers Of
treachery and insincerity.
1t has been charged that Reyes has
been secretly conducting a campaign
in the army, where he is very popular,
and that his real ambition Is to sup
plant General Diaz and not Corral.
These charges as yet remain unsubstan-
tiated.
Public opinion is strongly with Diaz, but
sharply divided on the Corral issue. The
native press is INDUCING in much talk
about revolutions, but as yet the secret
offices of the government have failed
to make public any evidence that such a
movement has tangible form.
Some days ago a small quantity Of arms
and ammunition was seized in the little
border town of Fuerte. situated on the
lines separating the state of Chihuahua
from the state of Sonora, but the govern
ment refused to dignity the incident as
worthy of being classed as revolutionary
The fight there was local in it's nature
and was waged by the adherents Of two
gubernatorial candidates, Redo and Fer
rel. The latter has been designated an
adherent of Reyes by administration Or
gans and some of his followers have been
thrown into prison.
Americans here in general place little
faith in revolutionary talk.

CURTIS FLIES IN
HIS AEROPLANE
Success Attends Aviator in His
Latest Attempt
CUP is WON
Curtis Makes His Flight Early in the
Morning But Even at That Time
Several Thousand People
Watch Him.

New York, July 17.-(Special )-Glenn II.
Curtis made the longest aeroplane fight
in America this year when he scared over
the fields of Hampstead today for 81 min
utes and 30 seconds. and covered 25 1-3
measured miles. In reality, the aeronaut
in the long sweeps that he made at the
turns of the course covered a distance
that is probably nearer to q miles than
the 25 measured over the course, but the
aforementioned figure is the one with
which he will be officially credited.
By his trip of today, Curtis wins the
Scientific American cup awarded each
year to the aeronaut who makes the long
est flight and comes down within 800 feet
of where he made his ascent
When Curtis reached his tent in Min
cola shortly after sunrise today he found
it surrounded by hundreds of persons. 1t
took Curtis but a single minute to look
over his machine, and then taking his
seat he started the motor. The next mo-
ment he was spinning along the ground.
After he had gone about 100 feet he tilted
the ascension plane and the next instant
was in the air. Curtis reached a distance
of about so feet above the ground and
the flight
1t was 5:23:16 o'clock when Curtis start
ed, and in two minutes and "A seconds he
had covered his first lap, a distance of
practically two miles, After that the laps
were covered in from two minutes and
half to almost three minutes 1t was
6:15 40 o'clock when he descended. The
machine came down as gracefully as it
went up Curtis turned off his motor as
he reached the earth and the machine
rolled on the wheels for a short dis
lance.
An examination of the aeroplane after
it landed showed that it was in the same
condition as when the ascent was made.
Not bolt had slipped and the motor was
not unduly hot.
Curtis believes that at this time Moth
ing is to be gained by longer flights that
are bound to be firing to the aviator. He
says that his experiments here will be
over in few days, and then he will go
to France to take part in the International
races.

Vaccinating the Nesritos.

fTOIu Tie MdLlld LilAlco.
In order to vaccinate successfullythe
Negritos who dwell in the mountaif of
Bataan and Zambales the services ofwo
Negrito chiefs have been secured andthe
work of vaccination is being pushed aSng
as rapidly as possible.
Heretofore it has been difficult to rond
up all the Negritos for the vaccinabr,
and the novel scheme Of placing be
chiefs in charge was finally adopted. Thy
Immediately consented to undertake te
work, are delighted with the service, AID
are not allowing any members of tie
tribes to escape them. In number "
instances it has been known that Negrt
tos have spread the disease among tft
residents of the lowlands, and the prese1
scheme promises to put complete stoi
to this.
The chiefs are accompanied by an ext
perienced vaccinator to see that every
thing is properly done, but they them
selves are doing the work. They make
regular reports, too, and when they run
out of subjects make an inspection OF
those vaccinated, and all upon whom the
vaccination has not properly taken are
Immediately subjected to another treat
ment with the vaccine.
