gan on the night of Saturday, Sept.
10. The first we're slight, but the
shocks became stronger each day
and night until the final one on Fri
day. The first shocks threw a lamp
off a camp box in McNichoIs' tent
and broke down his bed. He rolled
off the mattress, but the next quake,
more violent than the rest, threw
him back on the bed.
There is apprehension here that

speaker continued. but Kisses almost
drowned his attacks on Roosevelt.
Controller Prendergast followed in
favor of Roosevelt. He assailed the
action of the state committee last
night At the conclusion of Prender-
CASTS speech roll call was ordered.
The roll call was finished at 3:46.
The unofficial count was $50 for
Roosevelt, ASS for Sherman, and four
not voting.
Barnes Predicted Defeat.
William Barnes. Jr., leader of the
"old guard" in a statement to the AS
sociated Press this morning, said:
"Vice President Sherman will have
490 votes out of LOIS which will be
cast on the floor That is my guess.
1t may be that a few of the last coun-
ties in the roll call, seeing the way
things are going, will switch over to
the progressives.
Though Barnes conceded the defeat
of Sherman, he intimated there would
be a fight on the floor of the conven-
ton.
One victory for Old Guard.
Saratoga. n. Y, Sept. 27.-The
"old guard" last night scored a vic
tory over the Roosevelt-Gr -Griscom
forces when the republican state
central committee reaffirmed its Sc
lection OF Vice President Sherman
for temporary chairman of the state
This action came after Chairman
Woodruff had read to the committee
a letter from Mr.. Sherman in which
he asked that the committee inves-
tigate the charge that his selection
as temporary chairman was brought
about through trickery and saying
that if the charges were substantial
ed he would not serve.
The letter and proposals brought
out a heated argument which lasted
two hours. Then the committee, by
a vote of % to Is, resolved, that
'Mr. Sherman be informed that his
selection was made without misrep-
as an answer to his let
.er."

Madison, Wis, Sept. 27.-Conven-
tions of all parties are being held here
today for the adoption of platforms and
listening to keynote speeches by lead
ers. The democratic platform
probably will denounce the re-
publican system of protection
as economically unsound, politically
corrupt, contrary to sound morals, and
as legalized robbery" declare the
new tariff act to be "an indefensible
masterpiece of injustice, legally author
izing remorseless extortion of the many
to enrich the few through the opera
ton Of trusts and monopolies, which it
Fosters" commend the action of DEM
ocratic congressman in opposing the
Payne-Aldrich bill; favor an income
tax; popular elections of senators; pub
licity of campaign contributions; state

The republican platform may not be
completed before night, but it is con-
sidered certain it will reflect the views
of Senator La Toilette. 1t is said the
insurgents in congress will be credited
with the good work done; that there
will be a demand for a corrupt prac-
tices act; home rule for cities; denun-
citation of the brewers for activity in

Roosevelt Hur1s
Def at Bosses

Saratoga, Sept. 27.-Stirred by
the action of the republican state
committee which last night resoIv-
ed, % to IS, that no deceit or fraud
was practiced in the selection of
Sherman as temporary presiding
officer, Roosevelt today authorized
the following statement: "The
conduct of the majority of the state
committee last evening puts in the
cIearest light what this contest
really is, The statements of Girls
com, Krulewitch, kracke, Wana-
maker and HenkeI prove concIu-
siVeIy the trickery that was used
in the effort to win the majority
and keep the management of the
party under the control of men
who have been discredited by their
own actions. There has never been
better worth going than it is to
this, for never In another has the
Issue been so clearly drawn be-
tween cIeanness and honesty in
public life and that peculiar base
ness in political management which
has made the very word politician
obnoxious to the people.
"Our fight is squareIy against
corruption and the uncIean boss
ism which has bred corruption.
The men who by trickery kept con-
troll of the state committee and
who now come here in an effort to
dominate the convention, are the
very men who are responsible for
the corruption which produced
Aids and for all that has been dis
creditabIe in party management;
and now these deeply discredIted
bosses resent the efforts of the
people, the effort of the plain peo-
pie, who make up the great bulk
of the republican party, to rescue
that party from the factions which
have used It only to further their
own base and selfish purposes"

Care Taken to Limit Tes-
timony in Lorimer
Hearing.
NO HEARSAY ALLOWED
White Not Permitted to Tell
Statements Other Members
Made to Him.

Chicago, Sept. 27.-In the Lorfmer
case this mornings session was taken
up with an argument on the admissi-
bility Of certain class Of testimony.
At the conclusion Of the argument the
committee decided TO bar hearsay tes-
timony. The ruling shuts the door
against Representative White relating
conversations with his fellow legisla-
tors in which he says they admitted to
him they were bribed to vote for Lori
mer.
HoIstIaw Brought In.
Senator Holstlaw Of Iuka was brought
here today by United States marshal
and will probably be the third witness.
Not Allowed TO Tell whom
Representative White was recalled
and was asked by Attorney Austrian
if he exhibited the money he said was
given to him by Browne, to any per
sons. White answered yes" but was
prevented detailing to whom by an OBJ
lection from Attorney Hanecy, which
was sustained by the committee.
White then related the alleged bribery
OF himself and other legislators TO
vote for Lorimer.
Hanecy began the cross-examination
before the noon recess.
Evidence Thrown Out.
The committee yesterday would not
permit White to relate conversations
which he said he had with Representa-
tive Joseph c. Clark of Vandalia rela-
tive to a third representative, Michael
Link, touching the bribery payments.
In the argument over the admissible
ty of the conversations of White, Sen
ator Paynter asked Attorney Austrian:
do you contend that II a number of
legislators confessed that they were
bribed it would justify unseating sen
ator?"
Damaging Testimony.
Attorney Austrian responded: mo,
that is not our contention" Authori-
ties on the admission of testimony rel
ative to conversations were cited by
Attorney Austrian.
In the course OF his argument Attor-
ney Austrian said:
I'VE will prove that every man who
was paid to vote for Senator Lorimer
also shared in the jackpot We expect
to show the corrupt doings OF these
legislators. If we can not show this
other corruption, the testimony on the
Lorimer money will have less weight"
Governor Involved.
DEPRESSING at one point from the
legal points involved, Attorney Han
ecy said: Governor Deneen will tes-
tify if he is called that he Governor
Deneen) suggested that Senator Lori
mer become a candidate for the sena-
torship."
This committee is asked" contin-
ued Attorney Hanecy, ito hold against
Senator Lorimer because II is said that
some one paid money to kill or pass
bills. If this line of testimony is ad-
mitted, we should be allowed to sum-
mon every corporation or person that
is charged with paying money into this
jackpot fund and show by them that
they did not pay anything 10 affect leg

ACCORD ON RATE
Agreement Between Rival Or
ganizations of Insurance
Societies.
WANT ADEQUATE BASIS
Forestalls Movement by State Insur.
ance Commissioners for Enact
ment of Drastic Laws.

Mobile, Sept. 27.-Warfare among
the fraternal insurance societies Of
the country, which threatened the
destruction of many of the orders
and the lossSof hundreds of millions
of dollars of protection, has prob
ably been averted by the agreement
reached here between the warning
factions, which have been divided
over adequate rates.
The Associated Fraternities of
America have receded from their po-
sitions of antagonism and have
pledged themselves in writing to ac-
cept the provisions guaranteeing ap-
proach to solvency which they re-
pudiated at their Atlantic City
meeting last month. They have con-
ceded even more and agreed that
societies which are not able to show
ithe required improvement in sol
vency must stop taking in members
at inadequate rates and with the
funds kept separate.
Affects Millions.
This action affects 100000 fra
.ternaI insurance certificates out
standing in the United States, only
about 100000 of which are paying
rates regarded as adequate to carry
out their obligations. If it is approx
ed by the national convention of in
surance commissioners, which began
its annual meeting here today. it
will stop an attack which would
probably have put scores of weak
orders carrying hundreds of millions
of protection in the hands of re-
ceivers within the next few years.
The state insurance officials were
sure that great calamities overhung
the fraternal systematic insurance
protection OF the masses-unIess the
rates were made adequate, or un-
less societies agreed with the fra
ternal representatives who last sum-
mer framed a compromise bill paw
ing the way for adequate rates
through annual valuations and their
publicity.
Strong Dan Threatened.
When this latter plan was repud-
lated the state officials threatened
much more drastic action, and many
of them would have urged laws for
bidding the writing of fraternal in
