ITALIAN DUKE KILLED
 IN ACTION AT TRiPoLi
Ills Father Wishes He Had Been in
 His Sons Place.

Rome, Oct. 30.-The Italian nobility, like the people. are paying tribute in blood to the African conquest. Word has reached here of the death in ac- ton at Hons, Tripoii, of Duke Ric- cardo Grazioli Dante Della Rovere, a lieutenant in the navy, and the seri- ous wounding of Count Pompeo di Campello, a Lieutenant of cavalry and gentleman in waiting to the king. Both of these officers had many friends among Americans. They were both well-lSnown sportsmen, the duke as an exponent of tennis, and Count dl Campel1o as master of fGxhounds.
 Duke GrazioIi was cnly 25 years old. He had served as a naval officer at Chinese ports since 1908. He returned a few weeks before the outbreak of the war and expected to spend his va cation with his family. When recalled aboard the ship he bade farewell to his mother lady in waiting to the queen, and said laughingly: T am going to fight the Turks
 The duchess tainted when notified by an officer her son had been wounded, guessing the truth. The duke, his fla tIe1, who th!Is lost an only son, said: q wish l had been in his place. In en- w him.

TAFT SURPRISES HIS
 AUDITORS AT CHICAGO Mentioned the Possibility of RepubIi-
 can Defeat.

Chicago, Oct. S0-President Taft
 surprised a large audience at the dim ner of the Hamilton club today by W hat most of his hearers construed as
 an admission of the possibility of re-
 publican defeat in the coming national election. He was speaking to what
 had promised to be an unusually en-
 thusiastic audience of republicans. Those present hastened to attribute the presidents utterances to weariness after his long tour of speechmaking, especially after the three days hard campaign" in Chicago. It was his last public utterance in Chieago before leaving for Pittsburg tonight.
 Now we are at-some people think the crisis in the republican party with reference to it's continuance in the guidance of the nation" the presf- dent said. T am hopeful that the ~ood people of the country, who know g good thing when they see it, have only chasteneG us in an off year, in order that we may be better hereafter. but with no intention of shifting from shoulders that are fitted to bear the burdens of the present problems and carry them to 8 successful solution, to those which are untried and which have new theories of action that We do not believe in, and that we don't believe the people believe in.
 However, if so be it that they desire to mako change, We shall Loyalty GUpport the new government under any conditions, with the hope it will inure to the benefit of the country. but with the consolation that if, after one trial, the people think they ought to go back to the old party that has served them so well in the progressive days of the nation, they will do SO we can bear that, my friends; that IS alI.''
 After his speech, the president re- tired to his hotel for rest. Though he professed no weafiness, the three days ste teady strain had told on him and it was a tired man who led the presiden- tial party out of Chicago at 5.30 p. m over the Pennsylvania railroad for Pittsburg.
 The speech before the Hamilton club, irs which the possibility of defeat found expression, followed the laying of the cornerstone of the new home of the Hamilton club, one of the leading republican clubs in the middle west. A surging crowd in the street strove so energetically for a glimpse of the president that he was unable to speak for more than a few minutes preceding the laying of the stone.
 The ceremony followed a trip through the stockyards and visit to the na- tional dairy show4at the Dexter pa vifion. The remainder of the presi- dents day was spent at llls hotel in receiving politicians and friends.

Crashing salutes from the ships in the line greeted her as she steamed up stream and the whistles of hundreds of small craft from which she was recognized as the continuation of strength and effective ness in American naval construction vociferously greeted her. The big ship loomed high above the smaller fight CTS, for there was only one, the Utah, to compare with Ter.
