Taft Speech widens Breach.

MINNEAPOLIS. Sept. 2O.-The note OF
Dartisanship I'm President Taft's Winona
tariff speech did not strike a responsive
chord among such Of the Minnesota in
surgent Congressman as have been
reached today They do not think they
are ''out of the party" because they
refuse 10 sanction the present tariff bill
Representative Charles Russell Davis.
speaking AT his home in St Peter said:
Mr.. Taft's visit has widened the
breach between the stalwarts and pro-
gressives in Minnesota. The progress
sives in the party have been inclined
10 let the tariff bill be by-EOnes. But
Alr- TAFT has thrown down a def to
them His speech can be looked upon
by myself In no other light
Mr.. Taft thinks Cannon and Aldrich
are supreme. I believe that a reform
party did its best 20 beat Mr.. Taft for
the nomination, and that IL was not
elated whet he was chosen 90
Representative Frank NJ Nye said he
was surprised that Taft made such a
strong partisan speech at Winona.
II do not think, however, he has done
the Republican party any good or bad
in this State"
Congressman Halver Stecnerson said
he believed Taft did tne Dest he could
under the circumstances. The very
fact that he said the wood schedule was
wrong shows that he knew the bill was
not right mp 10 the pledges. He could
just as well have had a good bill while
he was at IL.

10 Augusta few weeks ago, where she
has been a guest of the Saleys.
She had planned to leave Augusta
last Saturday night, and when DR.. Sal
ley returned from visiting a patient
about II o'clock. his wife told him that
his daughter had gone away with the
school teacher.
DR.. SalleV said that the stories told
by Miss Bean about his daughter be-
ing severely reprimanded by her mother
were absurd.
Mother Too Lenient
My daughter doesn't know anything
about going out in the world like this
for herself She has been in school
ever since she was six years old, She
IS the only child. and instead of my wife
being TOO severe with her she has al
most been too leuient

thing she wanted"
Miss Salley was perfectly willing %

Il VIII do everything that Is within
human power 70 prevent you from ever

DIT. Salley also told Miss Bean that II
she ever returned he wOCid apply for a
warrant charging her With abduction.
Miss Bean went to Boston this after
noon.

PASTOR SAYS SWISS
BREATHE SERVILITY
Rev. DR.. Muir at Ministers Con-
ference Claims Travellers
Are Cause.

The Baptist Minister'S Conference. in
session this morning at Calvary Baptist
Church. hurried their routine business
to listen TO travel talk by the Rev
DR.. J. J. Muir. pastor of Temple Baptist
ChurcA, who has just returned from
tour OF England and the Continent.
During his stay in England DR.. Muir
acted as supply for the pulpit Of Ped
dington Chapel OF London. Between
Sundays he made q number OF excur-
sions to points OF historic interest in
European countries, and il was OF his
experience on these runs that he told
the clergymen this morning.
Particular interest was shown in his
description OF the churches in many Of
the larger cities Of Germany. Switzer-
land, Holland, and France.
DR.. Muir comments on the manners
Of the people were also striking. The
population Of Switzerland is becoming
servile." he said. ''The traveller cannot
help notice this and he Is the fault Of
it, The country is visited by so many
foreigners who hand out tips and be
stow the favor Of their patronage that
the people are beginning to breathe
seryility."

TAFT HAS FRIENDS.
BUT NO CONVERTS
President Establishes Re
markable Record for Diplo-
macy in Twin Cities.
By ALLEN D. ALBERT, II.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Sept. 2o.-The
President has made friends I'm Mime
sofa. but he has made no converts.
On the eve of his coming. the sub
stantial men of Minneapolis and st.
Paul openly expressed two fears:
That ne might by inference or direct
speech renew his Boston criticism OF
Governor johnson.
That he might attempt here a defense
of the tariff bill.
He has now spoken in both cities and
he has averted both mlshaps. On the
contrary, he found occasion IN NIinneap-
oils to voice so clearly and forcefully
his own high admiration of the COVER
nor as somewhat to offset the effect Of
his protest against what he conceived
10 be Governor Johnson's attempt TO
arouse sectionalism.' And he has not
referred. here among the friends Of
two insurgent Senators and nine in
surgent Representatives, to the tariff
bill which made them insurgents.
HIS speeches have been heard with
the greatest respect. and he has been
accorded a demonstrati ton or unquestion-
ed warm feeling. But the belief that
Johnson was right. and that the tariff
bill will work no practical benefit to
the people OF the United States as a
whole. and those Of the Northwest in
particular is as deep-rooted as before
crossed over to Winona from Lacrosse.
The sINech to the business men of
Minneapolis was unexpectedly brief.
These people believe in the whole policy
of conservation. They are ready to
vote for it. and be taxed for it. They
listened intently TO the Taft expression
of hope that the Constitution might
prove broad enough to give the policy
OF conservation warrant IN law. They
applauded heartily But II was plain
that they waited for specifications. They
wanted to know what conservation
meant as to water power, as 10 a fur
ther reduction of the duty on lumber, IS
TO the development of waterways like
the Upper Mississippi, and they did not
hear word of any of these subjects.
IL is not too much to say they were
greatly disappointed. INDEED, the head
OF great -four mill. a leading banker.
the manager OF great mail order
house. and others openly said as much.
As to the Winona speech. which was
a declaration of support for Mr.. Taw-
ney, IL is accepted as that and nothing
more. Only one paper in the Twin
Cities so far has commended II for its
substance. The others have either
spoken Of II with great restraint or re-
GREETED that another course, altogether
different, had not been pursued. That
course has been many times urged on
Mr.. Tawnev. II was that he and his
friends should admit that Mr.. Tawney
had to be regular. and so voted for the
bill. though he knew and they knew IL
10 be bill from which the people OF
Minnesota could expect no reduction
whatever in the cost OF necessarieS.
Dr. Richardson reports the President
IN excellent condition save for a slight
huslSiness which any traveller might in
our from the dust OF travel and the
strain of much talking.

Wealthy Father Takes Nineteen-Year-Old Girl Back
to Augusta Home With Woman Friend
TO Study Music In Boston.

Miss Carolyn NJ Salley, the young
woman who ian away from her home
in Augusta, Ga, 20 &c to Bostosi, be-
cause she wan-e ed 10 take a post grad
uate course in Emerson College, and
who was detain ID in this city yesterday
as a fugitive from her parents, started
for her Augusta home this afternoon
with her father, Dr. Q. b. Salley, a
well-to-do physician.
Dr. Salley came near having a legal
battle on his hands to regain possession
Of his daughter, Miss Mary Bear,
school teacher, who had induced Miss
Salley to accompany her to Boston, and
who stayed over in Washington last
night when the police refused TO lei the
girl go with her. appeared at police
headquarters early this morning with
Attorney Ambrose Miss Bean wanted
the attorney to get out a writ of ha-
beas corpus for Miss Salley before the
arrival of the girls father, but Mr. Am
brose was not inclined TO pursue this
course
When Dr. Salley got a message from
the washington police stating that his
daughter, was being detained, he i'm
mediately wired back to make sure that
Miss Bean was not permitted TO see her
before his arrival.
Influence Over Daughter.
DR.. Saney believes that the school
teacher has an unusually strong influ-
ence over his daughter. and the Wash
ington police are also inclined TO this
belief Miss Bean told the police and
her attorney that Miss Salley had had
a misunderstanding with, her mother
| and, because of conditions at her hou.e.
she had asked Miss Bean to take ser
to Boston.
Il didn't believe IN taking any action
before the arrival Of the girls father. "
| said Mr. Ambrose. When I saw father
and daughter both SO overcome from
emotion when they met that they could
not speak for several minutes. I was
confident that the best thing for the
girl to do was to go home.
q advised Miss Bean TO tell her
| friend to go back with her father, and
| she took this advice and everything was
I settled without taking the matter into
! court"
Why il was that MSS Bean was so
/ persistent in her efforts not TO have

made clear. a peculiar thing about the
| case Is the fact that Miss Bean bought
/ both tickets for Boston. one over the
