Rainey Of Illinois, who was nominated
by the Democrats to be one of the a.
blest members of the house, but he was
personally Objectionable to President
Taft because he criticised the Roose-

then secretary of war. The Presi-
dents brother, Chas. P. Taft of Gin
cincinnati, also fell under the lash of
Rainey's excoriating tongue. The
president at the time was a member of
the Panama commission and felt keenly
the attack of the Illinois member of
the house. MI. Rainey's criticism also
enraged some democrats, and when

AVIATORS FURNISH FINE SPORT WHILE PRESIDENT
 TAFT IS A SPECTATOR

Boston, September S.-With Presi- dent Taft an interested spectator at the Atlantic flying field held today. the aviators participating in the Harvard Boston meet outdid themselves for tn e chief executives benefit.
 Three machines were in the air at once, Claude Grahame- White, the Eng lishment, furnishing the principal fea- ture by taking up Mayor John F. Fitz- gerald in the Farman biplane for three laps around the field.
 Meanwhile Walter Johnstone, in a Wright, who was soaring in a distance and endurance test high above his fel- low aviators, watched for a clear course and then, sweeping from his lofty elevation, he put his airship through some fancy exhibitions of dip ping before the President, his work arousing great enthusiasm.
 Then came dash by Glenn Curtiss in his Hudson Flier' in an unsuc- cessful attempt to lower Grahame- Whites speed record of minutes l 3-5 seconds for 5A miles. Before the Pres ident left Charles F. Willard went up in Curtiss machine and Walter Brook ins climbed the skies for an altitude mark in Wright biplane.

SUPREME COURT MAY HAVE
 TO DECIDE FATE OF NEGRO

Washington, September S.-(Special.)- The United States supreme court soon may be called on to decide just what con- stitutes "a negro in the United States.
 On the eve of the opening of the pub lie schools a serious situation confronts the parents of Isabel T. Wall, the B. year-old daughter of Stephen Wall, the child having been declared a negro" by the district supreme court because her proportion of negro blood is declared to be one-sixteenth.
 So, when the school doors open to thousands of children In the district Isa- bel Wall will not be among them, for her parents yesterday declared they never would consent to her attendance at a negro school. One-sixteenth negro blood makes a child negro in the district, ac- cording to a decision by Justice Wright of the district supreme court in the Wall case. which was handed down last June. The district court of appeals will pass upon the case next month.

 National Chairman Mack counselled peace.
 He referred to the republican leader re- gently from the jungle as "one who thinks he can do everything by fighting" but for his own part he declared that as a democrat he had always accomplished more by peaceful methods than by carry ing a chip on his shoulder.
 If this policy of peaceful methods were pursued he predicted that the next gov ernor of this state would be a democrat.

SENATOR BILBO
 ENGAGES IN FIGHT

Mayben, Miss, September S.-The lie was passed. State Senators Theodore Bilbo and Van B. Boddie came to blows and for a time today Oktibbeha coun- tvs political rally threatened to end in disorder Friends of the beniger- ents interfered, however. and the af- fair was ended before it had assumed more serious proportions.
 The occasion was one of series of joint debates which have been in pro- gress for several months between the supporters of United States Senator Le- roy Percy and former Governor James K. Vardaman, aspirants for the demo- cratic senatorial nomination for the long term. Boddie was in the midst of his address when Bilbo, the author senatorial contest, was escorted to the platform. In concluding Boddie ac- cused Bilbo of uttering false state ments. Bilbo's retort with the short word came, and Boddie felled his op- ponent with a blow in the face. Bilbo regained his feet in short order and the combat was renewed, the two grap bling, In the meantime the audience was in an uproar women and children and the more neutral of the men leay ing hurriedly, fearing general com bat between the partisans.
 At this juncture, however, those on the platform separated the principals and the incident came to an end.
 Bilbo spoke later in the afternoon.

SPLIT MAY OCCUR
 OYER BALLINGER

Minneapolis, September S.-That at least linger-PiHchot congressional investigat- ing committee and probably others would refuse to meet with the democrats at the session set for tomorrow was indicated in a statement made tonight by Repre- sentative Denby of Michigan. While MT. Denby would not talk of the matter this was the inference drawn and confirmed later.
 It Is likely that Senator Sutherland of Utah and Representative Samuel W. Mc- Call, two other republican members of the committee, will not be present Sen ator Nelson, the chairman, is expected to call the meeting to order however. The presence of Senator Nelson the four democratic members and Representative Madison, the insurgent republican of Kansas, at the meeting tomorrow would be one less than quorum.
 Should the democratic members and Mir Madison be confronted with this sit uation 1t is likely that the sergant-at- arms will be called on to bring in the absentees should they be found. Never theless, 1t was stated authoritatively that there is little possibility of a quorum being present tomorrow or on Saturday when Representative Martin Olmsted. re- publican, of Pennsylvania is expected to arrive.
 That the democratic members and pos siby MT Madison will refuse to delay action In the matter of making their find. ings public is considered probable and 1t Is not impossible that their report, which will condemn Secretary Ballinger, will be given out soon, whether or not the republicans are disposed to issue theirs.

 INTO THE POLITICAL GAME

Freeport, H., September S.-Colonel Roosevelt admitted today there is a possibility of his returning to pt lie life. In this connection he issued a warning to corrupt corporations that any aid they might extend him in ob- taining any official place would be at their own peril, and not with the idea of getting official favors or pardons later.
 The statement was in his address in connection with the fair of the vari- ous organizations of railway employees for the benefit of the Home for Aged and Decrepit Railroad Men of Amer lea at Highland, Ill.,
 P J. Morrissey, former grand mas ter of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, introduced him. He talked of railway men and then turned to the subject of corporations.
 q don't suppose l ever shall be in public life again." he said, but if I am there is always the chance that some time 1t may come up when l shall make my words good.
 "No corporation, no politician must ever support me for anything under the idea that I will pardon that cor poration or that politician if he or it Is corrupt.
 If either corporation or politician. If either one or the other helps at any time to put me in a position of influence, let them remember that If they are corrupt, if they encourage corruption in others, or if they ben eft by it themselves. they help me at their peril, for l will hurt them If l

 Colonel Roosevelt also read an open letter by William R. Hearst in which MT Hearst advised the colonel to re- turn to New York and take up the fight upon the republican organization there, saying If he did so MT. Hearst would be in sympathy with him. The colonel said:
 T am going back to my state as men toned by MT. Hearst, to fight the bosses I will welcome the support of any man who wishes to aid in that fight
 Colonel Roosevelt's experiences on the way from Milwaukee here were lively. At the various towns at which the train stopped large crowds were out to greet him, and he made mum Der of speeches. reiterating his doc trlnes of honesty and good citizenship.
 When the train arrived at West Elgin the largest crowd at any station ex- cept Freeport had assembled. The crush on the track, which at the station is laid on the edge of steep bank, al most led to a serious accident. The crowd stretched far down the tracks and behind the special car and to the side away from the decline Colonel Roosevelt began to speak but only small part of the crowd could hear him. Those to the rear and on the side pressed in so closely that the fence at the edge of the track gave way and sev- eral men and boys were hurled down the bank.
 Colonel Roosevelt stopped his speech and shouted to the people to press back It was hard work. but the police directed by the colonel, at last man aged to get a safe margin between the crowd and the bank Several boys were cut and bruised but none seri- ously.
