Not Admitted as
Delegates.

CHICAGO. Aug. 1.-THE provisional
national committee of the RooseVei'
marty met today to dispose finally OF
The various contested delegate cases
before il. Two of these cases involved
the negro question and it was said
that some of the committeeman were
anxious to place the matter briefly De-
fore Colonel Roosevelt prior to a vote.
In the Florida cases a sort of com
romis was reached. The s~o-called
Lilly Waite" delegates. headed by H.
i. Anderson. provisional national conf
mitteeman from the state, were seated
in the convention as the regularly
chosen representatives of the State.
The contested delegates, headed by
G. II. Aston. a negro, were invited TO
sit In the convention as supplemental
delegates but without a vote.
Aston and the other contesting
delegates from Florida, five IL all
declared that under no circumstances
would they abide by the 'compro-
mise decision of the committee
IF we are to attend the
ton merely as spectators" said Ais
ton. I'VE prefer to buy our own

The negroes. when they heard the
decision, stripped the Roosevelt
badges from their coat lapeis and held
ar Indignation meeting. Later they
said thew would lay their case before
the credentials committee of the con-
vention when it is appointed.
Following the disposition of this
case, the committee took up the Mis-
sissippi contests, also made by ne
groes. and the Ohio cases, which
merely involved a local fight in Gin
cinnati.
The committee disposed of the Ohio
contests without delay. Four dele
gates contesting the seats of A. O.
Zwick, F.. Fl. Farr, John Reed and
Otto C. Lightner were thrown out.
The zwick delegation claimed that
the contestants had been put in the

STRIKING IN
SPEECH OF TEMPORARY
CHAIRMAN BEVERIDGE


I'VE have a plain program
of constructive reform. We
mean to tear down only that
which is wrong and out of
date.
ut is this invisible govern
ment of bosses with its con-
trolling influence in American
affairs which is the real dan
ger to American Institutions.
Its crude work at Chicago,
which was plainly seen, was
no more skilful than its work
everywhere, which the people
do not see.
1.-THE root of wrongs is the
fact that the government has
been taken away from the
people. The Progressive party
is to make sure the rule of
the people.
I'VE must end abuses by
striking down those abuses in
stead of striking down bust
ness itself.
Under the shifting inter-
probation of the Sherman law,
by which the oil and tobacco
trusts have actually been per-
mitted to raise prices un.justly,
uncertainty and fear is chill
ing the energy of the honest
American business man.
we want new business laws
which tell the business man
just what he can do and what
he cannot do.
THE tariff must be taken
out of politics and treated as
a business question.
Next to need to make
the Sherman law modern and
just is the fiscal need of a
genuine, permanent tariff
commission.
THE Payne-AIdrich tariff
law must be revised immedi-
ately.
Neither of the old parties
can honestly carry out any of
the tariff policies which they
pledge the people to carry
out"

the practical outcome, to go on doing
every wrong they ever committed.
Under the DEGREES of the courts the
Oil and Tobacco trusts still can raise
prices unjustly and already have done
so. They still can issue watered stock
and surely will do so. They still a
throttle other business men and the
United States Cigar Stores Company
now is doing 50. They still can cor
rupt our politics and this
are indulging in that practise.
Such business chaos and legal
paradoxes as American business suf-
fers from can be found nowhere else
in the world. Rival nations do not
fasten legal ball and chain upon their
business-no, they put wings on its
flying feet. Rival nationy do not tell
their business men that If they go
forward with legitimate enterprise
the penitentiary may be their goal.
mol Rival nations tell their business
men that so long as they do honest
business their governments will not
hinder. but will help them.
But these rival nations do tell their
business men that if they do any evil
that our business men do, prison bars
await them. These rival nations do
tell their business men that if they
issue watered stock, or cheat the peo-
pie in any way, prison cells will be
their homes.

For Tariff Reform.

Just this is what all honest Ameri-
can business wants; just this is what
dishonest American business does not
want; just this is what the American
people propose to have: just this the
national Republican platform Of 1905
pledged the. people that we would give
them; and just this important pledge
the administration. elected on that
platform, ~repudiated as it ~repudiated
the more immediate tariff pledge.
Both these reforms, so vital to hon.
est American business, the Progress
sive party will accomplish. Neither
evil interests or reckless demagogues
can swerve us from our purpose; for
we are free from both and fear
neither.
I'VE mean to put new business laws
on our statute books which will te
American business men what they
can do and what they can moi do,
We NEAR to make our business laws

criminal and what are lawful. Ano
we mean that the penalty for things
criminal shall be prison sentences
that actually punish the real offender
instead of money fines that hurt no
body but the people, who must pay
them in the end.
1.-THE next great business reform we
must have to steadily increase Amer
lean prosperity is to change the
method of building our tariffs. The
tariff must be taken out of politics
and treated as a business question
instead of as a political question,
Heretofore we have just done the
other thing. That is why American
business is upset every few years by
unnecessary tariff upheavels and is
weakened by uncertainty in the peri
DDS between. The greatest need OF
business is certainty; but the only
thing certain about our tariff is un-
certainty.

but should be exceedingly obliged.
Mr.. Roundhay, If you would give the
inspector my compliments and direct
MS attention to the bedroom window
and TO the sitting-room lamp. Each is
suggestive, and together they are al
most conclusive. If the police would
desire further information | shall be
happy to see any Of them at the cot

perhaps we shall be better employed

you will remember, Watson" said
Holmes u afternoon, that there is
a single common point of resemblance
in the varying reports which have
reached us. This concerns the effect
OF the atmosphere of the room in each
case upon those who have first en-
tered ii. You viii recolloct that Nor
timer Tregcnuis, in describing the
episode Of his 10 visit to his broth
er's house, remarked that the doctor
on entering the room fell into a chair?
You had forgotten? Wen, | can an
swer for it that it was so. Now. you
will remember also that Mrs. Porter,
the hOus,keepor, told us that she her.
self tainted upon entering the room
and had afterwards opened the win
dow. In the second case-that Of Nor
timer Tregennis himsclf-you cannot
have forgotten the horrible stiffness
of the room when We arrived, though
the servant had thrown open the win
dow. That servant, ! found upon in
Quiry, was so i'll that she had gone
10 her bed. You will admit, Watson,
that these facts are very suggestive.
In each case there is evidence of a
poisonous atmosphere. In each case,
also, there is combustion going on in
the room-in the one case q fire, in
the other a lamp. The fire was need
ed, but the lamp was lit-as a com
parison of the oil consumed viii show
long after il was broad daylight.
Why? Surely because there is ONE
connection between three things-the
burning, the stuffy atmosphere, and,
finally, the madness or death Of those
unfortunate people. That is clear, is
It not?'
ut would appear So"
AT least we may accept It as a
working hypothesis. We will suppose,
then, that something was burned in
each case which produced an atmos-
phore causing strange toxic effects.
Very good. In the first instance-that
of the Tregonnis family-this sub
stance was placed in the fire. Now,
the window was shut, but the fire
would naturally carry fumes to some
extent up the chimney. Hence, one
would expect the effects Of the poison
to be less than in the second case,
where there was less escape for the
vaDor. The result seems to Indicate
that it was so, since in the first case
only the woman, who had presumably
the moro sensitive organism, was
