SCHEME TO
BAR duke OUT

STOCKHOLM, July S.-If the OBJ
jections filed by the German contest
ants in the Olympic games had been
sustained by the jury hearing the var
ious protests, Duke Kahanamoku of
Hawaii, the American representative
for the 100-meter swimming contest,
would have been disqualified from the
finals altogether and not given a
chance TO swim his preliminary heat
ever again. Kahanamoku won the
trial heat easily, distancing his OPP
ponents and establishing a new
worlds record Through a misunder-
standing on the part of the swimmers
the heat was found to have been
swum under conditions which failed
to conform to the rules and the re-
suits were cancelled. =
When this action on the part of the
sports committee in charge was an
>nounced, an announcement came also
that the heat would be reswum. To
this the German swimmers took ex-
ception, claiming that all the swim
mers in that heat should be barred
from all further participation in the
100 meters, and the matter was sent
today to the jury.
Later the jurymen announced that,
in the interest of good sport, and in
order that the official winner of the
event might be in fact as we'll as
name the worlds champion, the heat
would be swum over again and the
winner made eligible to compete in
the finals This decision has been re-
ceived with general satisfaction, Ka-
kanamoku's feat having made him a
great favorite with both visitors and
residents of the Olympic City.
COMPROMISE To SAVE PARTY.
WASHINGTON July 8.-Believing
that it is not yet too late to bring the
shattered ranks of the Republican
party together for a harmonious cam
paign this fall against the Democrats,
headed by Governor Wilson. major
ity of the Republican congressman
and many of the federal Office holders
here have decided upon plan OF
action, whereby there could be a
united party once more, under a
leader around whom all might rally.
The plan, whichxis to be launched
as national movement, is to petition
President Taft to withdraw from the
contest for the Presidency, and, If the
idea gains impetus throughout the
country, to petition Colonel Roosevelt
to also withdraw from the race and to
abandon his plan for third party,
SO that a compromise candidate may
be put into the field
It is generally believed that such
petitions would be signed by very
many Republicans and would have a
very potent effect upon both Presi-
dent Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt, calling
upon them both, as they would, to
leave the field clear and allow. the
way open for party harmony. Each
would be appealed to to save the
party from defeat in the coming cleo
lions. It is thought that the Presi-
dent would be Influenced by the fact
that he won the bitter fight at Chi
cago, while Mr.. Roosevelt might be
induced to see that his duty to his
old party also calls for his personal
effacement from the campaign. while
his present plans mean a. strong
probability of Democratic success.

DRAMATIC SCENES
END LONG TRIAL

END LONG TRIAL
VITERBO, Italy, July 8.-The Ca
mora trial, which has lasted for
more than year, came to an end
Yesterday, amid scenes dramatic
enough to mark the conclusion OF
what has been the most famous Grim
inal trial in history. Six years ago
the ringleaders of the Naples organ
lied crooks, thugs and bandits were
arrested, charged with one double
murder and series of other crimes.
Today eleven of them were sen
fenced to various terms in jail. since
their arrest, several have died. Two
have died since the trial began, While,
as the verdict was being read today
BY Judge Bianchi, one of the pr1n-
ciples, De Marines, cut his own throat
and fell bleeding to the floor within
the great cage in which the prisoners
sat during all their trial. While
everything was done to prevent IT,, II
is likely that De Marines will die.
Eight of the principles, INCLUDING
Sortino, Nora, Di Genuaro, Saiyi and
Ceramic, accused of being directly IN
plicated in the murders OF Cuocolo
and Maria Cutinelli, were found
guilty but with recommendation
that the extreme penalty be not I'M
posed. Each was sentenced to serve
thirty years on the penal island OF
Favignana. Two other principles
were sentenced to ten years each as
accessories. Don Giro Vittaozi, the
chaplain" of the Camorra, received
g sentence of seven years.
During the excitement following
the attempted suicide of De Marines
the cage of the prisoners was torn tt
pieces, the prisoners assisting from
within the efforts of their friends IL
the courtroom The soldier car
bineers had difficulty in separating
spectators from prisoners and pre-
venting escapes by the latter.

service of the Baltimore and Ohio when
young man and subsequently went In
for law and real estate. He was elect
ed to the city council of Baltimore In

chief recreation. He is survived by his
wife, a daughter, Mrs John w. Stork,
