ADDRESSED WOMEN.
Colonel Roosevelt Discusses Woman
 Suffrage at Spokane Meeting.

Spokane, Wash, Sept 9.--Colonel Roosevelt in his private car left Spo- kane tonight on the last stage of the Journey from the Atlantic to the Pa oific. Today he made four speeches, attended breakfast a luncheon and dinner, and talked politics with pro- gressive leaders and headed a parade through the city.
 In his speeches Colonel Roosevelt gave his views of woman suffrage, re- piled to Governor Woodrow Wilson's criticism of the progressives proposal for minimum wage scale, assailed the position of the democratic party, and talked on the tariff. the courts and the high cost of living. He said little of the republican party, on the ground, he said, that he never discussed dead folks"
 Colonel Roosevelt gave most of the afternoon to the women of Spokane. A meeting exclusively for women was held in the Auditorium, and another theater was engaged for an overflow meeting.
 The colonel said he had not been in- duced to take up the cause of woman suffrage by women who devoted their time to advocating it. but what he had learned from women he had consulted in regard to other matters.
 He said that women such as Jane Addams of Chicago. who he had con- suited on social and economic condi- tions among the workers of their sex were virtually all in favor of woman suffrage because they believed 1t wouli assist working women to improve their conditions. Another condition 1T inducing him to accept this point o1 view, he said, was the influence in be- half of good government which wom- en had exercised through the ballot iI western states.

RUTLAND SToCKHoLDERs
 ARE STILL PROTESTING.
Objected to Roads Control by the New
 Haven System.

Albany, N. r., Sept. Republication has been made to the public service commission by Thomas c. Delevan, John F. Calder, Ralph L. Shainwald and George W. Towle, representing stockholders of the Rutland Railway company, asking the commission to set aside the purchase of controlling in- terest in the Rutland company by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company from the New York Central Railroad company.
 The petitioners says they represent a committee of minority stockholders holding s75.o0O par value of the Rut- land stock.
 ruary, 1911, pursuant to an unlawful combination and conspiracy, the New York Central, which was then the own CT of 47,062 shares of the capital stock of the Rutland company, wrongfully and unlawfully transferred to the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail- road company 23,035 1-2 shares of stock, constituting about one-half of controlling interest in the stock of the company"
 The petition says that on July il last Justice Gerard made an order grant, ing an injunction restraining the New York Central and the New Haven rail- roads from transferring or receiving shares of stock, but despite this order the New Haven road has practically assumed control of the Rutland. In ad- dition to cancelling the sale, the com mission is asked to restrain the New Haven road from the main part in the management and control of the rail- road. 'JThe complaint has been served upon the companies, and an answer required within twenty days.

WILson ON TARIFF.
Declares It to Be Colossal System of
 Deliberate Patronage"

New York, Sept. Ex-Governor Wood row Wilson worked from early morn ing until late tonight mapping out campaign plans at democratic nation al headquarters and appealing to the voters of New York city in three speeches.
 Over a big map the democratic can didate discussed with the executive officers of the campaign speaking tours of debatable states. Then he motored away to Union square and analysed before two big crowds tariff sched ules, statistics and the principles of protective policies. In the later after noon the nominee went to the bedside of National Chairman William F. McCoombs at Flushing. L. I. The gov ernor said MT. McCoombs was recov- ering slowly, but probably would be back in the campaign within three weeks.
 At the New York Press club tonight the governor delivered his principal address of the day. He was enthusi- astically applauded as he analysed the three political parties.
 Discussing the tariff, the governor said:
 "The trouble with the tariff has been that it is one of the most colossal systems of deliberate patronage that has ever been conceived, and the main trouble is that protection stops where patronage begins"
 |. The governor. in turning to his own candidacy, remarked that he could say without personal reference that whether by accident or however else it might be explained the democratic l candidate is not attached to any in- terest whatever the alchemy that ac complished this was practiced at Bal | timore."

 Corn probably will reach 2.995. .o0O bushels, exceeding the record crop of 1906 by about SS,00O,o00 bushels, the crop of last year by 464,00O,000 bushels. and the crop of 1910 by 109,00O, ,0O0 bushels.
 The potato yield this year. it is esti- mated, will be 99S,000,00O bushels, over stepping the bumper crop of 1909 by about 9,O00,O00 bushels, the short cros of last year by about 105,000,00O bush els, and the crop of 1910 by about 49,00O,000 bushels.
 Spring wheat crop probably will be 300, 100000 bushels, or 5000. 900 bushels over the record of 1908, 1o9. .O00. GOO bushels over last years crop, and 9e. = 100000 bushels over the 1910 crop.
 The harvest Of cats, according to the report, will be 1,290,000 ,0O0 bushels. ex- ceeding the record crop of 1910 by 04,000,0 900 bushels and last years cron by 3es, ,O00,O 900 bushels.

 Secretary MacVeagh has under con- slderat1on suggestions that the treas ury department distribute some of it's surplus funds among the national banks, to be available for the move ment of crops during the next few weeks. The working balance in the treasury today was S90 800 coo. Half of this amount, it is said, could easily be deposited in the national banks. if l necessary. In all probability he will discuss with President Taft before the close of the week the question of the necessity and desirability of depositing some Of the government funds to meef the crop-moving demands.

PRAISES "BIe STICK"
Governor Johnson Says Executive
 Who Don't Use it, is Unworthy.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 9-Gov. John son was optimistic today when he made his last three speeches in/ Michigan before leaving for Illinois.
 q bear you greetings from the pro- gressive state of California" he told a crowd sat Port Huron late today, "and after November you will be able to greet California as sister progress siye state. After almost three days in Michigan I am convinced that the pro- gressives will sweep your state at the November election. I have come to this decision after talking to all class es. politicians and laborers." The governor spent more time in Michigan than he has in any other state since he started his eastern campaign With three days in which to interview progressives from almost every part of Michigan, he made a close study of the situation His state ment today predicting success in Mich | igan was the first he had made about any state except his own.
 I Gov. Johnson made two speeches here, and one at Port Huron. The first Detroit meeting was at an auto mobile plant, where several thousand men listened while he spoke from an automobile in street during half of l their lunch hour. His speech at Port Huron was delivered from the balcony Of the court house to @ large crowd assembled on the lawn below him. At the edge of the crowd dozen veterans of the Civil war stood with barred heads throughout the address. The third meeting was held in the armory here tonight.
 In all of his addresses tho governor paid high tribute to Col. Roosevelt,

 Championship
JAMES GORDON BENNETT TRo-
 PHY GOES TO FRANCE.
AMERICANS WITHDRAW
None Cared to Compete With Daring French Aviator - Made Average Time of 1o5.5 MiIes an Hsur.

Chicago Sept. s.-Efance won today the worlds aviation championship.
 Jules Vedrines, champion of France, driving Deperdussin monoplane, took from America the James Gordon Ben- nett silver trophy without a contest Not an American aeroplane rose from the ground in defense of the cup, won by this country from England last year. DeLoyd Thompson, the only American aviator who had not with drawn from the race up to the last hour, took a final glimpse of Vedrines record, and walked off the field.
 Americans Hadn't Ghost of zChanse.
 Officials of the Aero Club of Amer ca explained their concession of the trophy to France at the outset. say ing in point of speed this country had not "a ghost of chance"
 105 Miles an Hour.
 1248 miles over the h14 mile course was one hour ten minutes 56.85 sec- onds. His average time was 1855 miles an hour. His only competitors were two Frenchmen, Maurice Provost, also in Deperdussin, who made the course in one hour 13 minutes 10.82 seconds, and Andre Frey, in Hanriot mono plane, who came down after making 23 of the 30 laps of the course because of engine trouble.
 Easy Work for Vedrinee.
 Vedrines had easy work of it. Start ing before any of his competitors were out, he sailed around the pylons like a swallow, attaining in some of the laps almost two miles a minute, and then rested in his hangar. Meanwhile the American contestants withdrew, and Major Samuel Reber. chairman of the contest committee of the Aero club of America said that the speed set by the Frenchman was too great to be met by any machine on this side of the Atlantic.
 Provost outdoes Frey.
 The only semblance of a neck and neck race came hours after Vedrfnes had alighted, when Frey and Provost ascended shortly before shots were fired for the close of the days sport Frey soon was overtaken by Provost who started two minutes later. At the 14th lap Provost had left Frey behind and at that time was only 32 seconds behind the time of the winner. While steadily outd1stancing Frey, he lost on the French champions time until al the 23d lap he was 73 seconds behind Vedrines. That assured the trophy to Vedrines-
