GOVERNOR ADMITS HIS TALK
Nebraska Executive Says He Boosted
Ex-Governor Francis.
OTHER DEMOCRATS FALL IN LINE
Trip Down MissiHsippi One of the
Pleasant incidents of Term
w. Il. Andrews stops In
Lincoln.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)

LINCOLN, Nov. a. - (special) - Even
though he is on Bryan ground, Governor
Shallenberger does not repudiate his in
terview nominating former Governor Fran
els Of Missouri as the democratic candi-
date for president. Instead Governor
Shallenberger said this morning that his
mention of the former governors name
as a democratic candidate and probable
nominee was heartily received by the dem
ocrats on the presidential trip who heard
his address The morning after his state
ment had been made public many of the
prominent democrats aboard came to the
Nebraska executive and informed him that
his statement had not been taken as a
joke, but that he had touched on a live
wire,
Former Mayor Frank Brown of Lincoln
was one of the first callers the governor
had upon his return to Lincoln.
Il want to congratulate you on the NOM
ination of Francis of Missouri for the dem
ocratic nomination for president" said the
ex-mayor, who is one of Mr. Bryan's closest
friends. He would make a strong candi-
date"
Then the mayor went on to explain
that, Of course, ne hoped that Mr.. Bryan
would finally be elected president and that
IL the NGBidShdll WOulu consent TO make
the race a fourth time he would be for
him. In fact, he would be for him for any
office he wanted But in case Mr.. Bryan
did not care to make the fourth trial for
the goal he would prefer Francis to any
other man in America.
The governors statement was made al
the conclusion Of a banquet on the gov
ernors' boat at which Governor Hadley OF
Missouri had been somewhat of a lion by
reason Of the fact that he had been the
first republican elected governor Of that
great state for some thirty years Gov
ernor Hadley had told his hearers what
a great state is Missouri and that the
president could find anything he desired
in its borders, not excepting his voice
which he lost in Texas.
Governor Shallenberger In his talk re-
ferred to himself as having a career
| somewhat similar to that of Hadley in
that he was the only living democratic
governor Of Nebraska, Then he added
to the things Hadley said Of Missouri by
saying that three times Nebraska haC
tried for the presidency and lost, and

concluded that perhaps 1t would be a case

COBHAM, Va, Nov. 8-John Armstrong
Chaloner, divorced husband OF Amelle
Rives the authoress, now Princess Trou-
betskoy and brother of Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanler, former democratic candidate for
governor Of New York, and who, a year
or more ago was exonerated by Jury for
the death of John Gillet, who was shot and
killed In a scuffle with Chaloner in the
Merrie Mills, Chaloner's home in Albert
county today held up an automobile loaded
with passengers on a public road at the
point Of a revolver.
He forced the chauffeur to descend and
lead his horse, which had become fright
ened around the machine and out OF the
way of danger. This is the first time that
the Virginia law requiring a chauffeur to
render aid In such contingencies has ever
been enforced in such a drastic measure
and by a private citizen.
Chaloner maintains that the revolver
which he says he is in the habit Of carry

Water Company Officials
Lock Horns Over Sidewalk

There is a possibility Of the Florence
pumping station being shut off from the
public.
For years this beautiful building with its
marvellous machinery has been the mecca
of thousands Of visitors. some Of whom
have come long distances TO view il.
A fight, bitter fight, Is on between two
factions in Florence over the laying Of a
sidewalk. and II is this which may result
in the denial OF the pumping house to
public view,
A. b. Hunt. superintendent Of the Omaha
Water company and Harold Reynolds.
chief engineer Of the Omaha Water COM
pany. are leaders OF the contending fac
tions, and Mr.. Hunt is the man who threat
ems to deny the water plant to the public.
Reynolds is also city engineer Of Flor
ence, and it happens that the city council
OF Florence Is with him.
A few days ago the council started TO
lay a little walk from Reynolds residence
20 Minna-Lusa. the home OF Mr.. Hunt,
next TO the pumping station, but this
walk would have been inconvenient TO
thousands Of people who visit the station.
Hunt maintained and he opposed IT, He

wanted the walk laid diagonGily from the
public street to the pumping station One
day when Hunt was in Omaha the city
workmen started to lay the walk as Rey-
nolds wanted It, This provoked a war and
everything but the militia was called out
Mrs. Hunt, perceiving what was about to
be done, hove TO the scene OF operations,
members OF the city council appeared and
Mayor Tucker was routed from the soli-
tude Of his languid rest and forthwith Mrs.
Hunt said things calculated TO stop the
progress OF any sidewalk. This particular
sidewalk work stopped All she sought to
accomplish was a cessation OF work until
her husband could be reached.
And there the thing hangs. Hunt de-
clares that If Reynolds persists in his
pans he viii shut Off the pumping station
from the public and Reynolds says he will
persist
Mr., Reynolds things his contention Is
proper and just, as walks are usually laid
on corners instead OF the bias. and fur
thermore, because cutting across would cut
him out entirely. He says he did not start
the move for the walk, anyway, but was
simply following out the councils instruc-
tions

Lnw-TwO-Cent Fare
Case.

GUTHRIE, Okl, Nov. 4-Judge Cotter-
IL in the United States district court here
today reaffirmed his decision that state
officials cannot interfere with interstate
commerce shipments of liquor before they
have been delivered to the cOnsignees.
A determined fight between the state
corporation commission and a number of
the larger railroad companies in Oklahoma
to test the consttutionality Of the 2-cent
fare law and certain freight rates fixed by
the state began in the United States dis
trIct court here today before Judge w. C.
Hook.
The railroads are asking for a temporary
injunction forbidding the enforcement Of
these rates and today Judge Hook heard
arguments on the plea of abatement filed
by state officers, who contended that the
railroads had not exhausted their relief in
the state courts ana that the federal court
had no jurisdiction in the matter On con-
cusion of the arguments Judge Hook an
nounced that he would return an opinion
next Monday or Tuesday.
In making the announcement Judge Hook
asked:
Assuming that the decision of the court
is adverse to the defendants, how long will
it take the state to prepare to contes,
theaction for an injunction?'
! Replying, Attorney General West re-
quested that the time be made indefinite,
as he did not know how long it would
take to secure data to prove his conten-
| ton.
Judge Hook finally, through the agree
ment of Attorney General West and rep
resenratives of the railroad companies
stated that IL the decision on today's plea
of abatement was against the state, he
would hear arguments on the application
for an injunction in ST. Louis Tuesday,
| December Z.
The plaintiffs in the suit are the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe, the Gulf, Colo
rado & Santa Fe, the Missouri Kansas q
Texas and the Midland Valley railroads
All the plaintiffs are subject to the 2-cent
/ passenger rate excepting the Midland Val
] ley railroad, which upon showing 1t was
not making fair profit under the 2-cen,
rate was exempted in accordance with IT,.
| state law and permitted to charge 3 cents.

the two most powerful ships in the world.
It's screw Standardization tests over the
Rockland measured mile course today de-
veloped a maximum speed of % % knots,
an average Of 2l.sS. Both marks are in
excess OF the best performances of either
It's sister ship, the Delaware, or the Bel

In attaining this surprising speed the
turbine engines Of the North Dakota were
forced to the development Of more horse
power than has been reached by any bat
tleship afloat. A maximum of 35,15O
horsepower was recorded, while S3,S75
horsepower was the mean amount. The
maximum number Of revolutions of its

tions in this time were sufficient to
maintain the contract speed of twenty
