SENATOR BR|sTOW
 INvADES WISCONSIN
HE OPENS CAMPAIGN IN BEHALF
 OF LaFoLLETTE.
He Reiterates His Opinion of Senator
 AIdrich and Speaker Cannon.

Oshkosk. Aug S.-Criticism of the | tariff law, which he designated as a l repudiation of the pledges of the re publican party; praise for Senator La Toilette and severe condemnation for Senator Aldrich, Speaker Cannon and Attorney General Wickersham-thes were the principal features of an address here tonight by Senator Jos eph l.. Bristow of Kansas. in opening the campaign for United States Sena- tor LaFollette in his contest before the primaries for nomination.
 In opening his address. Senator Bristow said he had come to Wiscon- sin upon the invitation of Senator LaFollette. and he did so to render what service he could toward promot- ing LaFollette ideas, which he said are for the benefit of the people
 MT. Bristow quoted the tariff plank in the republican platform, and said the party pledge had been broken. He said the tariff. instead of being revised. for the benefit of the ,consum- CT, was detrimental to the American standard of living. At this point he went into detail concerning the so- called lead trust which he said. Con trolled 90 per cent of the production and also controlled the cost"
 He said the reason MT. Aldrich had secured legislation favorable to this trust was because the American Smelling company wanted it.
 He spoke also in detail of the so- called rubber trust, saying. "This trust has raised the price of rubber to the consumer about g per cent"
 He said Aldrich and Cannon had called him a liar" but they had fail ed to specify wherein he had lied, and he was ready to meet them with proof of every statement he had made
 In closing. MT Bristow said the organized trusts had no party lines in reaching out to get control of leg islation for their interest and so the voters should draw no sparty lines in the coming election. but stand by the men who were trying to defend their interests.
 Mir. Bristow also took up the rail way bill and told of the fight of the insurgents to wipe out the vicious features proposed by MT Wicker sham" He said he favored the di- rect vote for the United States sen ate.

SOME NEW THEORIES
 AS TO KENDALL MURDER
THE FAMILY SHOT WHILE ON
 THE PORCH.
An Imbedded Red Streaked Bullet
 Bases for That Supposition.

CaZadero, August S.-That the Ken dalls were shot down as they sat on the porch of the ranch house, the murdered having concealed himself among the rocks across the creek from the building, is indicated by the discovery today of rifle bullet inn bedded in the wall behind the porch. Judging from the direction from which the bullet came, it must have been fired from the rocks. The missile bears a thread of blood stain, and it is supposed by the finders that it passed through the body of oue of the victims, before it struck the wall.
 Hidden in a cupboard in the house, a blood stained hatchet was discover ed today by the searchers. It is be- lieved to have been one of the i'm plements used by the murdered in hacking the bodies to pieces A trail of blood stains was also discovered from tie gate almost to the house. From the vague theory of the crime formed from evidence found thus far, it is supposed that Thomas Kendall was struck down near the gate and left this trail as he staggered toward the house.

ROBBERY, NOT REVENGE MOTIVE OF RICE MURDER THE NEW THEORY OF THE
 CLEVELAND POLICE. Why the Dead Mans VaIuables Were
 Found Intact.

Cleveland. Aug S.-The theory that w. Rice. the murdered lawyer, whose body was found near his home on Friday was assassinated for revenge was practically abandoned by the police this evening. The discovery of new clews yesterday and today, all of which point to attempted robbery being the motive. have confirmed their opinion that hold-up men are respon- sible for the lawyers death
 From some source, which they re- fuse to disclose, the police claim to have learned that a robbery had been planned by professional criminals in the vicinity of MT. Rice's house on the night of the murder. The two objections to the robbery theory were that the body was found lying in the full glare of an arc light and that nothing of value had been removed from it.
 The police explain this on the ground that the murder was preceded by a struggle in which Mir. Rice's assail- ants were forced into the light. and that the noise of an approaching frightened them away be- fore they had a chance to rifle the pockets of their victim.

TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST g, 1910

When the daZed passengers made theil way from the rear coaches, which were nnharmed they found a pathetic scene It was light enough to see plainly From the huddled smoking car came shrieks and groans, and the waving of blood stained arms. It seemed as though the passengers in the smoker consisting of between twenty-fiv and thirty ynien, had been caught in a sit ting position and those who were not killed were pinned in so by the weight over their legs that they were unable to, help themselves or their neighbors in misfortune.
 A few men made their way from the panic stricken thrOng to the forward end of the smoker where the greatest damage had been done. They had no tools, but they tried by their unaided strength to pull away the windows and jumbled timbers. In that mass of wood and flesh, however. there was little movement
 The work in the rear half of the smoker was easier Some of the res cuers scattered to nearby houses to telephone for help, while others sought to get the injured from the wreck.
 one man was lying at the side of the track with his head gone Another man was sitting in a window of the smoker, dead, an expression of min gled wonder and pain nhis face. A passenger. a young man named Elmer son, was found dead.
 Engineer Reynolds, of the passenger was injured, and a quick examination of the wreck of the cab of the freight engine showed the dead bodies of the engineer and fireman
 F. A. Myers of Petaluma, was one of the passengers. He was in a rear coach and was unharmed. He said that he had two friends on the train who went forward to the smoker a short time before the collision and that he was unable to find them. They were William Poehlman and George Riley of Petaluma.

 Mir Gompers said today he would endeavor to arrange the conference for the latter part of this week, or the first part of next, and if would probably be held in Chicago.

WOODRUFF OPTIMISTIC
The Convention Principle Will Be Retained and in This the Chairman Says He Has the Good Wishes of President Taft.

Beverly, Aug. S.-Timothy l.. Wood ruff. republican state chairman of
 New York talked politics with Presi- dent Taft for more than two and a half hours today
 Mir. Woodruff is optimistic over the I outlook in New York state. He de- | clares that a compromise will be ! reached on the primary question. and he significantly remarked after he left for home that circumstances might arise that would cause him to be a candidate to succeed himself as state chairman. Mir. Woodruff. who has had the job for four years, says it is thankless. but he may try it again.
 The compromise which Mir Wood ruff said would be reached on the primary question means a defeat or Governor Hughes plan for direct nom ination. Mir Woodruff said the party leaders in the state would not stand for the elimination of the convention principle He said President Taft and Col. Roosevelt. were in accord as to New York politics and that neither was disposed to force his own views as to any man or thing. Just how far Col. Roosevelt will go in the com ing campaign in fighting for the pri- mary system, has not been stated.
 President Taft stated his position anew today He also believes in the convention idea as to state tickets. though he probably would approve of a direct primary vote as to assembly, men, congressman and United States senators.
 President Taft and Mir. Woodruff are old friends. They were at Yale together Mir. Woodruff said today that he talked to the president of many things. It was too early, he said to speak with any degree of accuracy about candidates or general condi- tions.
 President Taft also had a talk to- day with Secretary of State Knox. | The President and secretary are us ing their good offices to bring about | an early settlement of the boundary | dispute between Ecuador and Peru
 According to present plans the | president may remain in Beverly this year until october 15. He will go to St. Paul to speak at the National Con- Congress on September ,. and from there will go to Washing | ton for a week. The cabinet will be called to meet in Washington at the | same time.
 From there the president will re- turn to Beverly to remain here until well into October

cREAoER's ADMISSION.
That Hammon's Story Had {
 Foundation.

MuskOgee, okla, Aug. 8.-ln reply to the charges made by Jake l.. Hammon at McAlester today that Congressman C. F. Creager had attempted, under the guise of loans, to obtain sums from J. F. McMurray. MT. Creager to- day gave out the following statement:
 T have just written letter to Con gressman Burke in reply to the charges made against me by MT. Hammon this afternoon in which I am reciting the circumstances in deail and advising him that if necessary I will be glad to go before the committee and ans wer any question that may be asked in regard to the matter.
 There is some foundation for the statement of Hammon. but he must have stated the case in an entirely different manner than it was given to him by McMurray.
 Before leaving MGskogee in No- vember I tried to trade certain prop erty for eighty acres of farm land worth $I0000 agreeing to pay the diff ference. which amounted to $4000 I found that l could not meet the re- quirements of the transaction, so l made application to the state for loan from the school fund.
 Tn December, after my arrival at Washington. I received a letter from Guthrie denying my request. MT. Me- Murray happened to be in my office at this time and I explained the situa- tion to him and asked him if he knew where I could get the money. He re- piled that if he had the money on hand he would be glad to make the loan himself.
 "A few days later McMurray told me he had the money and could make the loan, but questioned the propriety of our entering into a deal of this kind. This was the first time the matter was brought to my attention in that light,

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Will Neutralize the Delay Which Holders Sought by Throwing the Disputed Lands Into Receiverships Till Title Is Settled.

Beverly. Aug. S-A vigorous pros ecution to reclaim title to a vast amount of Indian lands in Oklahoma is being planned by tbe department of justice for the coming autumn. One of the principal actions in pros pect is to overcome the effect of an ingenious joker written into the In dian appropriation bill just before that measure was handed to the president for his signature.
 The joker was discovered by So- licitor General Bowers. but it was agreed between the president and Mir Bowers that it was too late to send the bill back to congress, and that d means of Offsetting the joker would be devised
 This joker, which is now a law granted the right of appeal to the United States supreme court in case involving over $20,000 in In dian contracts which had been decid- ed in favor of the government by the court of appeals of the Eighth circuit AS the matter had been taken into the circuit court on a demurrer, the defendants mad no right of appeal to the supreme court
 It is the belief of the government officials that the authority to appeal was secured. not with any idea that the case might be won in the court of final resort, but simply to gain a delay of a year or eighteen months
 This belief is based on the fact that lands involved in this case are practically all coal and oil lands and every day that passes they are being stripped of natural resources as fast as the coal can be mined and the oil pumped. A year or a year and a half delay means millions of dollars to the claimants.
 The plan to offset this move is to apply to the United States court in Oklahoma for receiver for the lands just as soon as the autumn term be- gins. In this way the court will ex- ercise full control over all the oper- ations and make secure the benefits for the final successful litigants.
 Investigating the contracts by which it is contended the Indians have been defrauded of lands grant ed to them by the government it is explained that the department of jus tice has unearthed a startling condi- ton of affairs. involving many well known persons. The governmet is fighting the cases hard for the In lians and once the lands are reclaimed t is proposed to further protect them if congress can be prevailed upon to Go SO
