EQUAL SUFFRAGE
WILL Be AN ISSUE
Question of Extending Right~t0
Women Ready for Vote.
COMES UP IN NOVEMBER
In the Event That Voters Favor the
Move, the Legislature First Must
RatifY PriViIege-Noted Speakers
Are Coming to Wisconsin.

Madison.-Man must decide in the
coming November election whether
woman shall have the voting ballot
in Wisconsin.
The much discussed issue of equal
suffrage will come squarely before
the voters. 1t cannot be lodged this
time. Secretary of State Frear has
instructed every county clerk in Wis
consin to submit to the voters this
question, contained within chapter
227, laws of the state:
can act to amend section IL of the
statutes, extending the right of suf-
frage to women
If the question is decided in the
affirmative, the next legislature must
ratify it before the voting privilege
can be extended to the women.
Should the present day qualified vot-
ers reject the demand of the women,
that will kill the effort, but it will
not kill the agitation for equal suf-
frage in Wisconsin.
A number of notable woman suf-
frage speakers will invade the state
between the primary and the cleo
ton, urging upon the men to extend
the voting privilege to women.
Among these speakers will be none
less than Mrs. Oliver Hazard Perry
Belmont, the militant suffragist of
New York, who is devoting fortune,
time and energy to the cause. In
addition to the feminine speakers,
number of masculine advocates for
equal suffrage will argue with their
brethren anent the wisdom of extend
ing the voting franchise.

HITCHCOCK MAIL ORDER
BRINGS MANY PROTESTS
NO Sunday Delivery of Letters Edict
Causes Trouble-5oxes Will Be
Available.

Washington, Aug. 29.-When Post
master General Hitchcock awoke to
a realization that his no-Sunday-de-
livery order was starting
trouble from coast to coast, and from
the gulf to the lakes, he held a num-
Der of conferences on Tuesday and
then issued statement which says in
part:
Mail received up to midnight on
Saturday for lock boxes will be dis
tributed to the boxes and will be
available to box holders on Sunday as
usual.
There is at present no street deliv-
cry of mail by letter carriers on Sun
day, and therefore the law makes no
changes in this regard. In short, the
only mail that will be affected under
a reasonable construction of the new
law is that received at the post offices
on Sunday and hitherto sorted on
that day for distribution to lock
boxes
I'm order to give the new law as
liberal construction as possible,
postmasters will be instructed on ap-
plication to have their employees sort
out In emergency cases on Sundays
letters of special Importance.
'This provision does not require the
slosing of post Offices on Sundays.

LOEB IN DEFENSE OF T. r.

Campaign-TeIls of Hartman Visit.

Gives Version of Contributions in 1904
Campaien-TeIIs of Hartman Visit.
New York, Aug. 28.-William Loeb,
collector of the New York port. came
to the defense of Theodore Roosevelt
on Monday in statement concerning
the contributions to the 1904 campaign
fund by E. H. Hartman and the
Standard Oil company.
He says it was he, and not Presi-
dent Roosevelt, whose secretary he
then was, to whom George 3. Cortel-
you, as chairman of the Republican
national committee, gave positive
assurance that the Standard Oil COM
pany had made no contribution to the
campaign.
Mr.. Loeb also makes the further
statement that instead of Roosevelt
asking Hartman for assistance, the
latter, at the famous White House In
terview, had urged the president to
cause National Chairman Cortelyou
forthwith to give financial help to
the New York state committee in or
der to save the state ticket.
Il am making these statements
only in the interest of truth" said
Collector Loeb.
Collector Loeb then took up the
Standard Oil contribution.
"Of this matter" he said, my
memory is quite as clear and distinct
as to the other have just discussed.
I remember the two letters and tele-
gram President Roosevelt had sent to
Chairman Cortelyou instructing him
to return forthwith to the Standard
Oil company any contribution that
concern may have made to his cam
paign.

CONGRESS QUITS
UNTIL DECEMBER
General Deficiency Bill, Carrying
100000, Is Passed.
VOTE FOR CAMPAIGN INQUIRY
Penrose Resolution Asking for Investi-
cation Goes Through in Senate
Bribery Charges Filed Against
Virginia Senators.

Washington, Aug. 28.-With mem
bers tired and peevish and less than
a majority in attendance in each
house of congress, the second session
Of the Sixty-second congress was
brought to a close on Monday. The
next session will open in December
unless some great crisis should arise
that would justify President Taft in
calling a special session during the
fall.
The senate bowed to the house and
struck out of the general deficiency ap-
preparation bill the state claims of Ore
gon, Texas, Virginia and Maryland, aG-
gregating 100000.
The president was at the capitol to
sign the measure, which provides for
an expenditure of 100000.
Senator La Toilette brought up the
Penrose campaign investigation reso-
luton and, with the threat Of long
f1libuster, succeeded in forcing 1t
through. The resolution was passed
without roll call.
Zen minutes before adjournment
the house administered a final blow to
the senate by refusing to consider
resolution of the upper chamber per-
hitting it to pay it's own employees
months extra salary.
In the house the adjournment cere-
mony was uneventful. Barely hand
full of Democrats and Republicans APP
plauded the final address of Speaker
Clark, congratulating them for their
aid during the session and expressing
the hope that they would all return IN
December.
Prior to the speakers address Chair
man Fitzgerald of the appropriations
committee and former Speaker Can
non, the ranking Republican member,
INDUCED in a verbal duel. Both agreed
that the total appropriations for the
year were $1,019, 100000, as against
$1,026, 100000 of the last Republican
congress. Cannon maintained that the
Republicans had been as economical
as the Democrats, but that the total
budget of the last Republican con-
gress was increased by the $45,0OO,0OO
which they allowed for the Panama
canal.
The house whiled away the several
hours by discussing the immigration
bill. This was brought about by an
attack on Chairman Burnett of the I'M
migration committee by Representa-
tive Focht of Pennsylvania, whose
language finally became so unparlia-
mentary that he was called to order
by the speaker. He charged Burnett
with having printed a personal attack
on him in the Congressional Record
without delivering any portion Of it on
the floor Of the house. He character
lied the attack as a ''venomous UNI
truth"
President Taft shortly after the ad-
iournment started for Beverly. where
he is to spend his vacation.

with startling happenings. Reports
of horrible slaughter We're frequent
and American mission workers lives
We're placed in jeopardy. Wu Ting
Fang, former minister to the United

eventually will become Il republic,

Exciting incidents also attended the
