CONDEMNS REPUBLICAN PARTY FOR FAILURE TO CARRY OUT
 ITS TARIFF PLEDGE.
FOR PREFERENTIAL PRIMARIES
Demands Additional Legislation to Crush Private Monopoly-PIedge Party to Legislation to
 Prevent Floods.

Baltimore, June Bristling with Democratic pfogressiyism, tine plat form on which the Democratic party will stand during the approaching campaign, was completed late tonight by the committee on resolutions and awaits only the approval of the pres. the convention. The document is the result of 4S hours of deliberation on the part of the committee. It is al almost entirely new document, al though the recommendations of the New York delegation were followed in many cases. From first to last the committees deliberations were characterized by the utmost harmony. The unanimous demand was for the , most pronounced declarations in fa- vor of progressive policies and the only differences of opinion arose over the best method of expressing this tendency
 The result is platform of gen. erally advanced views although many of them are less radical than the party declarations of other years. The document covers every subject of importantance, which has been the subject of party discussion during the last four years.
 .Sone of them are elaborately pre- sented. but the large number of sub- | jects renders it somewhat voluminous | One member said that 1t was "as long as a clothesline" and another that il extends from Maine to California. The members of the committee ex- press general satisfaction with the outcome of their vote and MT Bryan | who took a most active part in fram ing the paper, made the prediction | that it would arouse the approval oi not to exceed a dozen members oi l the convention.
 Under the new rule adopted the platform will not be presented to the convention until after the nomination of the cadidates.
 Planks of the Democratic platform summarized:
 | Reaffirms party's devotion to the principles of Democratic government
 as formulated by Jefferson.
 Declares for a tariff for revenue
 only and denounces the high Re- publican tariff as the principal cause
 of the unequal distribution of wealth.
 Favors immediate downward revis- | ion of present duties, especially upor
 necessaries of life Favors gradua
 reduction so as not to interfere witt
 or destroy legitimate industries.
 Denounees President Taft for ve-
 toing tarifI bills of last congress.
 Condemns Republican party "fol
 failure to redeem It's promises of 190. for downward revision"
 Takes issue with the Republican Iplatform as to the high cost of liv
 ing. contending it is largely due t'
 high tariff laws.
 l Favors vigorous enforcement of thu

This description has been wired
to every seaport and every large
city,in the United States, with or
ders that Koetters is to be arrest
ed on sight.
Meantime, the police are comb

gone over thoroughly today. No
trace of Koetters was found. A
rumor that Koetters had been
seen at a South Side hotel this
afternoon could not be verified.
Mrs. Kraft was SIS years old.
Koetters was SO. 1t was the old
story, Koetters pretended to be
infatuated with her in order to get
her money. Mrs. Kraft believed
him and trusted him.
Then Hooters disappeared
with $500 of her money. Mrs.
Kraft complained to the Cincin-
natl police. They told her to
swear out a warrant for Hooters
arrest. She was afraid to do so.
What happened after that can
only be conjectured. Whether

elared that the throne accepted
the republic; the third approved
all the conditions agreed upon by
Premier Yuan Shi Kai and the re-
