Speaker cannon,s Battle.

The fight now being waged by
Speaker Cannon against the Republi-
can insurgents. or those who voted
against the Payne tariff bill, is being
watched with the greatest interest by
politicians at Washington. The dec
laration on the part of the speaker at
Chicago recently in a speech that the
20 members of the house and seven
senators who voted against the tariff
bill are not Republicans, but should
be placed in the Bryan column, has
stirred up all sorts of trouble in the
ranks OF the followers of Senators
Cummins and Lafollette, and they are
determined to fight the speaker and
his policies to the finish. Whether
or not Uncle Joe" will be a candi-
date TO succeed himself as speaker
when his present term expires even

have recently visited Washington are
not prepared to say They state that
Mr.. Cannon has given no intimation

percentage of the earnings of the
club, that will bring his income up to
about $4,000 if the season is a good
one.
Cobbs three-year contract is said to
call for $4,000 a year, the highest paid

PRINCE ITO KILLED.
How the Deed Was Done
Is Not Known.

News has been received at Toxic
that Prince Ito, the famous Japanese
statesman, has been assassinated at
Hardin by a Korean.
The fateful news was received In
Toxic at 3 o'clock Monday afternoon
The dispatch contained only the brief
announcement that Prince Ito had
been assassinated. The news has
caused great grief and CONSERVATION,
Prince Ito was the representative
OF the Japanese government at Seoul
from the close OF the Russo-Japanese
war, when Japan took possession of
Korea, until recently. when he was
sent to Hardin on a mission for his
government. He so incurred the en-
nifty OF Koreans that his life was
continually in danger. He was so we'll
protected in Seoul by Japanese troops.
however, that would-be assassins could
not reach him.
Prince Ito, who was president of
the privy council of Japan, left Toxic
October 16 for tour of Manchuria.
He was to have arrived at Hardin
today CTuesday) where he was to
have met NJ. Kokovsoff, the Russian

ceeding S25,000,0O0, has caused aston

children. Each is entitled to one-fourth
of his fortune. but this right only OBJ
tains If the king makes a will Dur
ing his lifetime he can dispose OF
the property as he chooses, and the
royal fortune is believed to be dimin-
ishing daily owing TO gifts to favorites
and their endowment.

intention of leaving nothing to his
daughters. but it is believed now that
the contemplated sale of the royal pic
ture collection will not take place.

BATTLE WITH THE
BOND COMPANIES
DENY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
STATES LOSSES BY
GLAZIER.
A DIVIDEND DEAL MADE
Latest Phases Of the GLACIER Failure
Show the State Has a Law Battle
Coming.

Creditors of Frank p. Glazier,
bankrupt Chelsea financier. and for
mer state treasurer, will receive their
first checks this week. The agree
ment by which the Chelsea Savings
bank surrenders its preferred claims
TO the $4,000 in mortgages on the
Blodgett terrace in Detroit and the
Glazier building in Ann Arbor having
been ratified by Judge Swan. at the
suggestion OF Referee in Bankruptcy
Davock, the way is clear for the in
itial disbursement to creditors, and
about 100000 will be paid out by the
Security Trust Co., as trustee.
In return for its release of claims
on the mortgages, the Chelsea bank
comes in for that amount among the
general creditors, and receives $1,000
besides.
The claim of the state for $225, 900
is in dispute, and a hearing before
Referee Davock is expected in Novem-
Der. The trustee and the principal
creditors take the position that the
state has no provable claims, but must
look to Glaciers bondsmen.
Bonding companies are the Glazier
sureties, and they are preparing to
make a bitter fight against payment
Of the amount yet due the state. They
take the position that the deposit of
state funds in the Glazier bank was
with the sanction of the state audi
tors, and that the state banking de-
partment was aware of methods prac-
ttced in the Chelsea institution. They
insist the state knew these things,
but that the bonding companies did
not know of conditions at Chelsea.
They therefore draw the deduction
that they cannot be held responsible.
