SAYS ROOSEVELT FAILED
TO REGULATE TRUSTS
Bryan Declares Plan Of For
mer President Was Tried
Without Success.

NEW YORK, November 1S-"Col.
Roosevelt's plan Of regulating large
business enterprises, where they be-
come of such magnitude that they are
termed trusts, has been tried and
failed said William Jennings Bryan
just before he sailed with Mrs Bryan
today for a vacation trip to Panama
and the West Indies. Col. Bryan was
discussing the editorial Of .he ex-
President in the Outlook. dealing with
the trust question.
Roosevelt was President for seven
years." he continued. land he did not
succeed in regulating these so-called
trusts. 1t Is natural that he should
seek to defend himself and his at
titude during his occupation Of the
presidency against the charge that he
deceived by that corporation.
Rests on False Theory.
But Mr.. Roosevelt in his editorial fails
to mark the dividing line between an or
binary corporation and trust He does
not practically point out where we can be
benefited by his suggestion of q commits
sion of control. The commission he sug-
gests Is a dangerous experiment. not only
because 1t is doomed to failure. but be-
cause II rests on false theory-a theory
not only false but dangerous.
Tine theory that competition is impos-
sible In large business enterprises is the
socialistfc theory and cannot be admitted
without bringing US face to face with the
Issue presented ~ socialism
Col. Bryan was not inclined to con.
strue the OutlOok's editorial, he said. al
an indication of the intention of Col
Roosevelt to re-erter the political field.

Premier Yuan Shi-Kai Fears
Foreign Interference.
ATTITUDE IS MADE CLEAR
New Head Of Chinese Government
Would Re-Establish Monarchy.
REPORT FIGHTING AT NANKING
Advance Guard Of Rebels Said to
Have Engaged outposts-As-
sault Hourly Expected.

PEk1NG, November 18.-Premier Yuan
Shi-Kai believes China cannot establish a
republic with sufficient dispatch to pre-
vent foreign interference. Therefore, he
is endeavoring to re-establish the mon
archy. This Is his present attitude, as
expressed and implied to members Of the
national assembly, foreign ministers and
others whom he has seen.
The premier believes, or pretends to be-
live. that the provinces Of Chill and
Honan are safe, although it is well
known that only force retains them to the
government. He says the masses in most
of the provinces are not rebellious, but
that the provinces seeded without CIV
ing the matter much thought, and very
little pressure would bring them back to
the fold, particularly if Wuchang is re-
captured.
Some members Of the legations think
Yuan Shi Kai has the capture of WI
chang in view, and that the renewed
fighting around hankow yesterday and
today Is preliminary to an attack upon
Hanyang. Additional troops are being
sent south, but the explanat ton given by
the premier is that they are intended
to reinforce loyal troops in Honan. Yuan
declared today that the lighting at Han
kOw Is the result Of rebel attack.
Ii the imperial troops are taking the
offensive by order of Yuan Shi kai the
premier is deceivins the national assem-
bly,, to which theoretically he Is RESPONSE

country wide demonstration for a
strict republican form of government,
with the throne completely eliminated
from the constitution, however, is the
propaganda that is springing into sudden
TO several authorities, it will In the near
future supersede the present plan OF gov
ernment.
Yuan Shi kai, the new premier, who
was hailed as his country's savior, is
already the object of criticism. 1t is
openly charged that he is under the
thumb of Prince Ching, the ex-premier.
His cabinet is proving "a failure before
the completion OF its organization. Liang
Tung Yen, named as president of the
board of foreign affairs, is among those
selected who have refused to serve. The
native newspapers denOunce the new pre-
mier's policy in bitter terms. 1t Is said
that he cannot see beyond the Chill
province.
The situation in the Yangtze section re-
mains unchanged and uncertain. Fight,
ing continued at many places in the dis
tTict today. The 10000 yen for which the
governor of Honan telegraphed yester-
day SO that he might pay his troops and
keep intact the imperial forces was not
forthcoming today, and it is doubtful II
It will be. In that event all the troops
in the province will join the rebels.
Reports from rebel sources state that
the negotiations between Yuan Shi kaf
and the republican leaders at Hankow
have been closed without an agreement
having been reached. There Is no cessa-
tion In the fighting, and the rebels SO far
have been victorious. They have crossed
the river Han. which separates Hankow
from Hanyang. and have retaken the
water works Hundreds Of loyalists are
said to be deserting to the side Of the
rebels and many Of the officers have COM
mitted suicide
Rebel supporters here say they have
received confirmation Of the report Of the
capture of Admiral Sab Chong Ping.

1t is reported that the premier has per-

Yuan Shi Kai is supporting the peace
society promoted by Wang Ming,
who was recently released from prison,
where he was serving a term for an
attempt to- blow up the regents palace
with bomb. The society's object is
to reunite the country quickly by send
ing elnissaries to the provinces to point
out the dangers of foreign interference.
There IS plan also to submit the ques-
tiOn OF a constitutional monarchy or a
republic to referendum, all the
provinces agreeing to abide by the re-
suit.
Gen. Ian has been dispatched as
the rebel leader, to submit further pro-
posais. Gen. Ian commands the third
division, which supported Gen. Chang
Shao-Tseng's twelve constitutional de-
mands.
Many provinces report ,marauding by
robber bands, and there are persistent
rumors that several foreigners nave been
killed in Shensi. Several edicts We're IS
sued today dealing with the members of
the new cabinet. One resignation was
accepted. while other members were de-

PLANS FOR TWO NEW WBATTLESH|PS Authorized Several Months
 Ago by Congress BOTH OIL BURNERS Economy of Democrats in House Not Expected to Affect Building of Two Battleships
 Per Year
By SYDNEY EPsEY

Washington, April 22.-(Special .)-Pres- ent plans of the Navy department call for the building of two of the most powerful ,battleships afioat, each ship of 2S,0o0 tons displacement, with armor plate of 16-inch thickness, and ten 14-inch guns as the main battery. The guns are to be placed in four turrets, two or which will have two 14-inch guns each, and the other three guns each.
 These plans are for the two ships au- thorized several month ago by Congress. The Texas and the New York authorized a year ago and now in course of con- struction are to be of 27000 tons dis placement with main batteries of ten IT. inch guns and fire turrets containing two guns each. The armor plate on the water line, the main belt of protection for both Texas and New York, is IA inches in thickness.
 Italy and Russia, not by any means leading naval powers, are the only guns turrets. Naval experts of this government, however believe the three gun turret an improvement and are therefore eager to try them out in the two newest ships.
 The new ships will have oil burning apparatus and oil tanks as an auxiliary power, and will be so constructed as, to use oil extensively in an emergency. Al present many of the new ships carry a supply of oil, which is used principally to increase speed and cruising radius. By flushing the coal with oil more power Is gotten out of the ship, and she can materially increase her speed and ga further on her coal
