Troops were posted along the lines 10

pots. The military governor Of Paris and
the przfect Of police were summoned by
Premier BRAND 20 discuss the measures
TO be taken.s
The strike is partly the result OF the
coal men demanding an increase in wages
from 60 cents to 81 a day. From 10000 to
50. 600 men are involved. and If the strike
becomes general, as it Is feared it Will,

Philadelphia, Pa, Oct. l0-The North
American delivered TO Senator Penrose's s

Is undoubted master Of the organiza-
ton Of the Republican party in Pennsyl-
vania, and that he dictated the nomina-
tion Of John X Tener for the Office OF

II says that recently it has been en-
gagged in investigating fraudulent cor
porations-particularly those get-rich-
quick companies, that plumber the public
by prospectuses, by deceitful false pre-
lenses. and by those various artfu de-
vices that Mr.. Roosevelt has called
crimes OF cunning" During this inves-
tigation It has discovered the true char
acter of his candidate for governor.
should John X. Tener remain a can
didate for governor. il will be the duty
of this journal 10 lay the facts in our
possession before the public. in order
that they may advisedly pass upon his
fitness for the high public trust TO which
he aspires. We have no wish to make
a sensational publication OF the informa-
stion that has come 10 our knowledge.
"Our duty as a public journal is TO
prevent. il possible, such a man as John
X. Tener from becoming governor of this
State. This can be accomplished in two
ways-either by your procuring him 10
resign the nomination within forty-eight
hours or by our exposing his character
TO the people, and thus securing his de-
feat at the polls
It goes on TO offer Senator Penrose an
opportunity to examine the facts in its
possession and then allow him to decide
upon his course.

HIS ATTITUDE STUDIED
President Gets Opportunity to
UnbOSOm Himself.
Heretofore Taft Has Kept silent
Regarding Subjects that Caused

Former FelIOw-members of Cabinet
He Was Free TO TaIk-supreme
COURT Appointments Considered.

Beverly, Oct. l0-United States Sena-
tor Elhu Root conferred with the Pres!-
dent for five hours to-day. It was the
first time that the President had talked
with Mr.. Root ssince he returned from
The Hague. where he had been one Of
the United states representatives in the
Newfoundland fisheries case.
It was back in June when Senator Root
sailed for Europe and he had not been
there. long before he met Col Roose-
Welt and had a long talk with him
Senator Root left Washington believing,
as most OF President Tafts close friends
did. that Col Roosevelt would fully in
dorse the Taft administration.
It was accepted as a fact. however,
that Alr Root met Col. Roosevelt in Lon
don as a VOLUNTEER advocate OF the Taft
administration 10 counteract by his
words the reports that had been poured
into the cOloners ear by Clifford Pinchot
To-day was the hrst opportunity that
President Taft and Senator Root had had
10 view the London meeting together in
the light OF recent events.
Get ROOseveIt's Views.
The President ana Mr. Root, as they
Teminisced. undoubtedly had before
them the latest dispatches from the
Roosevelt train. in which the colonel
makes Il apparent that he does not intend
10 indorse the Payne-AIdrich tariff law.
and that be would have combated any
attempt to indorse Taft for 1912 in the
Saratoga convention.
There is another feature OF the Taft
Root meeting that interests the Presl-
dents friends. Tart and Root had served
together In the Roosevelt Cabinet. Both
were strongly attached to the colonel
personally. Mr. Roosevelt is said to
have remarked often 10 Taft and Root
that the thought that gave him the
greatest satisfaction was that he could
serve under either OF them with the
same readiness and pleasure that theg
were serving under him. On the surface.
at least, this same warm friendship ex-
listed among the three when Senator
Root said good-by to President Taft at
the White House. in June and left for

administration 10 Roosevelt.

IMPLICATE DEAD MAN.
Witnesses Say Rawn Held Stock in
0sterman Company.

Chicago, Oct 10-The methods OF Ira
G. Rawn, former vice president OF the
Illinois Central Railroad and president Of
the MOnOn. generally regarded as a sui
eide at his home in Winnetka, were re-
vealed this afternoon in detail by Thomas
B. Kirby. OF Elgin, H., whose name ap-
peared in the list OF stockholders Of the
Osterman Manufacturing Company. He
testified that he held stock for Rawn.
The stock, Kirby said, was in his name,
but was held for the dead railroad man
at his (Rawn's) request.
The only reason he held It. according
to the witness, was Rawns objection to
being named openly as a stoekholder OF
the Osterman company when ne was
vice president of the railroad.
Other testimony along the same line
was given by witnesses this afternoon.

Rockville women slammed the
door in Cupid's face yesterday and
shut down on elopers. The village
is to be the Gretna Green no more
II they can help it. They banded to-
gether and asked the ministers of
various churches to help them. They
declare indiscriminate marriages
are an abuse that has amounted to
a reproach upon their town and
county. Their action was in the
form OF a circular letter.
GREFNA GREEN MAY FALL.
Referring 70 the recent order OF the
county clerk prohibiting the issuance OF
marriage licenses after office hours,
which has received favorable comments
by the press and public generally, we
beg leave 10 appeal TO ministers Of our
churches. individually and collectively, TO
supplement the effort Of the civil author

amounted 10 a reproach upon our town
and county by declining to marry any
persons, even when licensed 10 wed. un-
less at least one Of the parties Is known

I'VE respectfully submit that a major
ity Of the marriages In Rockville Of those
not residents OF this county are not OF
this character. coming at unreasonable
hours ana IN unseemly haste. and in
many instances causing sorrow and
shame TO their parents.
We beg TO call your attention 10 some
newspaper items, which show how fire.
quently the name of Rockville appears ir

ter was the subject Of a bill introduced
IN the last legislature, and We understand
that similar bills have been presented tC
