IOWA INSURGENTS WILL
NOT IGNORE PRESIDENT
To Indorse Taft on Progressive
Measures Only

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Aug. 1.-Presi-
dent Taft will not be ignored in the
platform of the Republican state con-
vention which will be held here next
Wednesday. His administration will
be indorsed, is as far as 1t has car
ried out the pledges in the platform of
1908"
This was determined upon at a snug
little meeting of leaders today. Among
those present was JOB" Lane OF Dav-
export, who declined to serve on the
resolutions committee, thereby clear
ing the political atmosphere material
ly. George c. Curtis of Clinton, will
represent the second district on the
platform committee. This is said to
mean that the majority report of the
committee will fully = represent the
views of the insurgents, Cummins and
Dolliver. Thus the convention, in
which the progressive majority is
placed at $50 votes, will be spared the
trouble of substituting a minority re-
port for the adverse majority.
Senator CumminS circulated freely
among his friends in the hotels to-
night. Among these it was stated that
every act Of the insurgent delegation
would be indorsed and that efforts for
harmony would not go to the length
of indorsing President Taft on matters
where he and the Independent progress
sive Republicans have been at vari-
ance,

HAS RICHES; WILL
SEEK EDUCATION
Daniel Field Will Enter Harvard
to Gather Learning Early
Poverty Denied

BROCKTON, Mass, Aug. Though
he has millions at his command, Dan
iel Waldo Field, aged 45 years, who
has made fortune in the manufacture
of shoes, feels the need of education
and has just completed plans for en-
tering Harvard. Field il his boyhood
days felt the pinch of poverty and an
extensive education was through this
circumstance denied him.
Field will be the Oldest student in
the university, but he hopes to fra
ternize with his collie mates of more
youthful years.
Even though he has great means,
Field realizes his need of more edu-
cation. What learning he has was ac-
quired through contact with the world
in business circles.
81 realize" said Field, "that there
are many finer things of life that I
am unable to appreciate because of
my restricted education. It is my pur-
pose to fit myself to enjoy these things
which my wealth will give me access
to.
"It seems rather strange for a man
Of my age to be going to college, but l
want to be put on a footing with my
college mates. I do not want my
wealth to prove a bar to my entrance
into the fraternity which exists among
all college men-not the Greek letter
variety-but the fraternity of good fell
loWShip." ,

Home Suffering from Lung
Trouble

SANTA MONICA, Aug. Lieut..
Charles r. Leeds, United States en-
gineer in charge of the Los Angeles
office, is seriously i'll at the Gray
Gables apartments on Ocean avenue.
Instead of enjoying his vacation in a
regular beach way, Lieutenant Leeds,
who came here with his wife and two
children ten days ago, is confined to
his bed, and for several days a phy
sician and nurse have been in close at
tendance. Although not out of dan
ger, his condition is improved, and his
physician expresses the opinion that he
will recover.
Soon after coming to the beach to
spend his annual vacation in relaXa-
ton from his work in the interests of
Los Angeles harbor, Lieutenant Leeds
was taken sick with an affection of the
lungs. 1t is understood to have been
the result of an abscess on one of his
lungs breaking while he was attending
to an errand at Los Angeles last week.
Since then he has been unable to
leave his bed and has suffered a num-
ber of hemorrhages. For a time Lieu
tenant Leeds life was in great danger.
and heroic work on the part of those
in attendance mas enabled MIN 10 sur
vive the crisis. Mrs. Leeds is con-
stantly at her husbands bedside.
Dr. F. ]. Wagner of this city, who
has been in attendance during Lieu
tenant Leds illness, said tonight of his
patients condition:
Lieutenant Leeds has just passed
the best twenty-four hours since he
has been ill. 1 consider his condition
serious, but his chance for recovery at
this time is good. There is no i'm
mediate danger"

made by the United States.
Men who controlled congress, he said,
purchased eight submarines when the
naval committee had asked for only
four.
Let me tell you of Lilley," he said.
"Lllley was a congressman from Con-
necticut. One day, on Pennsylvania
avenue, he said to me, Great heavens,
what will he'people do with this crowd
If they ever get on to them"
HE began to look around. Down in
the basement of the White House, hid
away in little cubbyholes, he found
electric lights in obscure holes, where
no human foot had trod since the
electrician had put them there.
He went on the committee on naval
affairs. There is boat company that
manufactures submarine torpedo boats.
1t has but one customer, and that is
Uncle Sam. The navy department
asked for four of these torpedo boats,
but congress gave it eight.
'Lilley thought there was something
wrong and he began to watch. Every

that with the session tomorrow, when
President Meyer will outline future
policies, final adjournment will be
taken.
Meyer was reelected by large ma
jority.
There was little opposition to the re-
election of Charles F. Mahoney of
Butte as vice president, but strong
opposition developed against the reten-
tion in office of Ernest Mills as secre-
treasurer, and the result of this
vote was not known until tonight.
Butte had a runaway victory in, the
contest for the next convention.
The three actions accomplished by
the convention which are regarded as
having been of the most Importance
are the unqualified Endorsement given
to the fight being carried on in support
of the locked out miners in the Black
Hills mines, the strong Endorsement
of President Meyer and the progress
made toward affiliation with the Amer

THIRTY THOUSAND MINERS
TO BE CALLED ON STRIKE
Negotiations with Southwestern
Operators Ended

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 1.-Negotia-
tions between coal miners and oper-
ators of the southwestern territory,
which have dragged along over a
period of exactly four months, were
brought to an end today. A general
strike order will be issued Immediately,
according to George Manuel, secretary
of the Missouri district, and 10000 or
more miners who have not worked
since the expiration of the old contract
April /, will be formally on strike.
The conclusion of negotiations came
after the miners had been in session
the greater part of the day and had
waited for the operators to agree to
their proposition to hold joint ses-
sion, at which a wage scale based on
what is known as the Cincinpati de-
mand could be discussed.
Conference committees had been pro-
posed by the miners to meet such con-
ference committees as the operators
chose to appoint, but the operators
held that by agreement neither the
operators nor miners could demand a
joint meeting and would make no con-
cessions to this request of the miners.
OF the number of miners affected by
the strike order about $500 are in Kan
sas, about $500 in Missouri, 5000 in
Oklahoma and about 5000 in Arkansas.
Some 5000 in Texas, though IN another
district, will be indirectly affected by
the strike order, and this, too, will
have an indirect bearing upon the
miners in Colorado and other western
states
At present there are a number of
''independent" mines in this territory
that from the beginning have paid the
wage scale asked and at these mines
there has been no cessation of work.
They employ about 2SOO men. EN-
polyes of these independent" con-
Germs will not be asked to discontinue
work

ALBANY. Ore. Aug. 1.-The entire
village of Hoover, the eastern termi-
nus of the Corvallis & Eastern rail-
road, f1fty-seven miles east of AL
bany, was probably destroyed by fire
late today. The loss is over 100000.
No report direct from the stricken
town has been received since 6 o'clock
this evening. At that hour the big
saw mill. lumber yard, hotel and
several dwellings, had burned and the
fire was still spreading. The town
was reported doomed. Not a building
was expected to remain.
The town Is without communication
by telephone or telegraph, and no fur
ther reports can be obtained. The fire
started in hot box at the saw mill
at p. m. The flames quickly en-
veloped the entire plant and the wind
drove them into the lumber yard.
Sparks communicated the fire to other
buildings and practically the whole
village was soon ablaze. No lives have
been reported lost, but people were
forced to abandon their property to
save themselves.
Trenches are being dug around the
town to prevent the fire spreading into
the rich belt of timber adjoining.

Especial indignation is expressed at

Catholics, who threatened to precipi-

Vatican placed their lives and property

PapaI NunCio Remains in Madrid.

Statement

ROME, Aug. 1.-One hour after pre-
senting the note of Premier Canelajas
to the Vatican officially announcing
that Marquis de Ojeda had been called
to Madrid for a communication "for
the government" the Spanish ambas-
sador to the Vatican left Rome. This
was early this morning. AS yet no
retaliatory measures have been taken
by the church, and Monsignor Vico still
remains in Madrid as papal nuncio.
The statement issued by Premier
Canelajas yesterday bearing on the
controversy between the church and
the state has been carefully perused
by the Vatican officials. They assert
that that part Of the statement In
which 1t is declared that the holy see
intended to concede to the Spanish gov
ernment less than what was agreed to
in 1904 is without foundation in fact.
1t is Canelajas, they declare, who now
wants greater concessions than those
of 1904, on the plea that they were
granted to the then Premier Maura
and that Canelajas believed them to
be at that time insufficient.

TO USE PASSBOOK SYSTEM
IN POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS
Committee Decides Coupon Meth
cd Too Complicated

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The long
established passbook system used in
ordinary savings institutions will be
adopted for the government postal
savings banks. The committee that
has been perfecting the plans for the
postal banks had been considering
what is known as the coupon system
for postal banks deposits, but has now
decided that while having some ad-
vantage that system might produce
complications.
According to the coupon system de-
positors would receive with each de-
posit a slip representing their deposit,
together with a coupon for the amount
of interest that would be paid on their
money. The committee decided there
were many objections to flooding the
country with millions of deposit slips
with coupons attached, many of which
would represent values of only few
cents.

THINK CASHIER HAS A
PART OF MONEY HIDDEN
Books of Brokers Fail to Show
Loss of $5OO,OOO

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The theory is
advanced by attaches of the district
attorneys office that Erwin Wider,
cashier of the local branch of the
Russo Chinese bank, who disposed of
$5O000O of the banks funds in Wall
street speculation. has large sum of
the banks assets secreted somewhere.
This theory is based upon examina-
ton of the books of all the brokerage
firms with which Wider is said to have
done business. 1t is reported that
while stock purchases have been
charged up against Wider, the total
found by the district attorneys office
will not amount to more than $500, 900.
However, the authorities will renew
search for the missing money and
