TOUR OF ROOSEVELT
CAUSING A SCARE
Taft's Friends Much Afraid of
the Result
WAITING ON NEW YORK
VIII Decide the Fate of Taft
in the Coming Presf-
dental Race

Washington, October 5.-(Special)-
There Is little attempt to disguise the
fact that the friends of President Taft
are hardly less alarmed over the south
ern tour of Colonel Roosevelt, begin
ming Thursday than they were when
the colonel visited the west, wound up
in New York with hurrah, and de-
feated the "old guard" which was GER
tain to be for Taft in 1912.
1t is of course realized that the
southern delegates can usually be
bought, cash. patronage or both, but
1t stif1 remains that the southern dele
gates are mighty anxious to get on
the winning side and If he sees that
Roosevelt is bound to win 1t is going
to be mighty hard work to hold him
in line. Should Roosevelt elect his
candidate for governor of New York
It means nothing other than he has
the New York delegates to the next
national republican convention In his
hand and can vote them from first to
last ballot-for Theodore Roosevelt.
The election of the democratic can
didate, however, makes his control of
delegates very doubtful and for this
reason not few republicans are urg-
ing the President to sit quietly by and
not urge his friends to support the re-
publican candidate in New York with
any great degree of enthusiasm. There
is reason to believe that the President
has been informed of this situation by
some of his closest advisers.
What the President thought of the
proposition no one knows, but he is
a very poor fighter as everyone knows.
Colonel Roosevelt will sweep through
Virginia on Friday and that night ar
rive In Tennessee. The next day he
Will be in Rome and Atlanta. From
there he goes through Tennessee, Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas, then to Missouri,
where the southern trip ends and the
tour through Illinois and Indiana COM
mences. 1t will be lively throughout
but President Taft's friends will be
particularly watching the south.

Richmond, Va, October 5.-After
making his usually successful flight
with a Wright aeroplane at the state
fair here today, Ralph tombstone. the
aviator, undertook to make short
flight with Mayor Richardson as a pas
senger, and upon arising the aeroplane
fell about 80 feet to the earth and was
temporarily put out of commission by
a small breakage, though neither the
mayor or tombstone was hurt. 1t is
said that the mayor, in waving his
hand to the crowd, touched certain
wire and thus cut off the current from
the motor.

"a physical wreck and barely alive"
The above sentence hardly does justice
to the pitiful condition of Mr.. William
j. Booth of Mate-Wan, Mingo county,
West Virginia, when he arrived at the
Electro-R Radio institute December 4.
Scarcely less wonderful than the cure ef-
fected was the fact that a human be-
ing could be in such shape and yet live.
His sworn testimony, voluntarily given,
may be of benefit to those who suffer and
yet stubbornly refuse to believe that
cure may be obtained, for the seeming
ly strange reason that the Electro-Radio
institute makes no halfway claims. but
sweeping statements. 1t Is remarkable
fact that there are sufferers In this world
who would come instantly II the institute
simply offered relief, partial help and a
reduction Of suffering.
These same people probably accept I'M
hesitatingly statement made in the pa
pers that such and such number of
men were killed in certain railroad ac-
cident, and refuse to accept statements
OF the institute as to what It can and
has accomplished. They forget that the
newspaper correspondent might have an
ak to grind, might, in his desire for SEN
sation, exaggerate. Mr.. Booth, however
has no AK to grind. He was as unknown
to doctors of Electro-Radio institute as
they were to him, excepting, of course,
what he had read of them and their work.
He says:
"For the last three years my compll-
cation of ailments practically kept me
confined to my bed. Sometimes I would
stay up for two or three weeks. but only

THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-Wheat prices
were weighed down today by estimates
that world shipments would pc 2,oo0,-
900 bushels larger than last week.
Crop damage reports from Australia
took on serious proportions, but were
discounted heavily, as recent advices
have indicated a record yield in that
country. Although selling pressure here
was not heavy. attention centred on the
fact that some of the leading trades
who switched to he bull side a few
days ago were again taking a bear
position. The market opened u to "a
lower. December started at 92B to
1915, a loss of " to Is, and fell to s3&.
Huge Argentine shipments-virtually
5000, 900 bushels against $4,000 bushels
a year ago-had a depressing effect on
corn. December opened B@A to A@$
off at 46 to 46H, hut reacted to 46A@ as.
Oats followed corn. December start

to 31h@A.
A light run of hogs west gave a
steady tone to provisions. First sales
were 2M higher to S lower, with jan

for lard and 9.02h for ribs.
