jeCt Fearing Spread Of the
Disease

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER. Del. June 6.-The Board
OF Pardons in session here this morn-
Ing had nuder cosideration the
case OF Harvey E. Brown, colored,
sentenced on May 70, 1903. in New
Castle county for murder in the
second degree and serving a life SEN
tence. Brown Is suffering from tu-
berculosis in its last stages.
Brown was represented by Harry p.
Joslyn who gave the details as 10
Browns offense and the circum-
stances surrounding It, that of the
killing Of Mary Stats. also colored
in Wilmington. on March g. 1909.
DR.. S. G. Rumford, workhouse ply
sician and Dr. ]. B. Stubbs, the family
physician, said they had examined
Brown and found him suffering from
tuberculosis in the last stage and
predicted that ne mad Du rev
months to live.
Dr. Stubbs said II was his opinion
that Brown could live but a shor
time and that if he we're released anC
allowed to go to the home of his
mother in Wilmington, who desired
to take care of him, his life nigh
be spared a while longer Or. Stubbl
added that II was his intention t
look after Brown If he secures a
pardon and do everything he can fol
him.
Mr. Joslyn called the attention o.
the board TO the fact that two prison
ers had died at the workhouse within
The past two or three weeks. A quer,
was made by Secreary of State Rich
ards why IL was that so many prison
ers had died I'm the workhouse, where
as under the old system of keeping
prisoners in the county jails, scarce
ly any died of tuberculosis.
State Auditor Townsend asked DR.
Stubbs II there was a possibility o
the work OF the Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety being retarded If Brown wer'
allowed TO return home.
DR.. Stubbs answered that Their
might be a possibility OF the diseas'
spreading, but IL was hoped, with
proper care. to prevent this
After the evidence had been sub
mitter by Mr.. Joslyn. Mr.. Richard
read a letter from Miss Emily P
Bssell, Of the Anti-Tuberculosis SO

of nearly two-thirds Of the elected
delegates, according to expressions
personally secured from them. He
stated that he did not believe the
Roosevelt forces would attempt a
fight on Root. although he said they
would probably claim they would
make one up TO the very moment Of
organization.
The plan of the convention leaders
today was to have the temporary or.
ganization made permanent, thus con-
tinuing Root as permanent chairman.
II was pointed out that this action
would prevent a second fight over a
new permanent chairman and also
that. because OF the intricate ques~
tions of parliamentary procedure that
might arise, Root was the best man
that could be had in the chair This
plan. however. was opposed by some
of the leaders who insisted that Root
should not be given all the limeligbt
aud was subject to revision later on
The revised list of the contests as
announced by William Hayward, Sec
retary of the national committee was
as follows:
Alabama, %; Arizona. 6; Arkansas,
16; California, 2; Florida. II; Geor-
gia, 2S; Indiana, 10; Kentucky, 16j

sippi 1S; Missouri, IA; North Caro-
lima, 1S; Oklahoma, 2; Tennessee, 8;
Texas. 2S; Virginia. 90; Washington,

II was the general belief today OF
both Roosevelt and Taft leaders that
the only contests that Roosevelt would
win were in Washington State and
nnssihlY in Texas.

eXcoriation of Edward Hines, alleged
senator maker in the LOrimer case,
as an "egotistical bribe monger,
characterized Senator Reeds contri-
button to the senate debate of the
case today. He scored senators for
"skimming over" Hines connection
with the case. Reed followed Lea of
Tennessee, who attacked Lorimer and
Thornton of Louisiana, who defended
him. Lorimer made frequent notes
during the speeches.
The galleries were packed when
Lorimer, for the second time, pleaded
for his senatorial seat. Cool and col
lected, he stood behind his desklit-
tered with manuscripts and diagrams,
and launched into his defense of the
fraudulent election charge. He traced
the alleged conspiracy of certain Chi
cago papers in 1905 to loot the school
funds, and intimated robbery by the
Chicago papers opposing him. He
tiayed Lawson, owner of the Record
Herald. and alleged that Governor

Taft Petition Held Up

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE scheme
of Progressives in the house of repre-
sentatives to launch a fresh campaign
against President Taft by means of a
petition asking him to withdraw as
the Republican nominee, proved a
flash in the pan" When pinned down,
the members who had participated in
the conference which developed the
idea. hastily joined the Don't Mention
My Name" club.
Only one of the participants in the
informal conference, Representative
Rollin r. Rees of Kansas, admitted
that he had a petition aimed at Mr..
Taft, and he made it public, coupled
with statement which said in part !:
MY scheme was to appeal to Mr.
Taft's patriotism and well known love
for party solidity To be successful
my petition would necessarily have to
| be presented to him by those who
| were his political adherents at the
| time he sought the nomination.
Il did not intend that the press
should get hold of this scheme until
| had a fair opportunity to try it out. y
The heading of Mr. Rees' petition re-
cited the charges of fraudulent nom
| lnatlon against President Taft, made
by the supporters of Colonel Roosevelt
1t proceeded on a new tack, however
by asserting that whether the charges
were false or true, they would affect
the election, and that in the minds OF
Progressives they would result in Re
publican defeat.
The petition of Reese has not been
adopted by the insurgents. They
have concluded to hold another confer
ence when more insurgent leaders are
in Washington.

DEMOCRATS HAVE ASP|RAN1
FOR CONGRESSIONAL HONOR

San BernardinO Index. Bruder Ket-
tner seems TO be the busiest of all can
didates on any ticket and for any Of
fee Chaperoned by Judge B. F. Bled-
soc. he has already been through San
Bernardino and Riverside counties to
tell every one OF their voters personal
" that he is a candidate for congress.
The midnight lamp burns regularly
until morning while he is debating lei
ters to his friends to inform them of
his candidacy and ASK their support.
When the letters have been written,
he opens statistics on the tariff to
learn how TO protect the fruit indus
tries of this district against the inva-
sion of Italian and Sicilian growers,
particularly after the Panama canal
has been opened.
Il have never undertaken anything
vet in which | haven't succeeded"
says Bruder Kettner, and he raises a
long forefnger 10 the level of his
trimmed glasses and shakes it at the
other fellows nose. Now l am going
to be elected. Why"
BY this time Bruder's long finger
has dropped into the palm of his other
hand
Now let us take the tariff on lem
ons, for instance. What will l do about
that when | am in congress?
Bruder's right hand at this point
rests assuringly on the other fellows
shoulder.
! III say: Boys, we can't afford to
let those Italian schooners sail into
the harbors OF southern California and
ruin our lemon crop"
His hand leaves the other fellow s
shoulder and his arm is dramatically
stretched toward the south. His men
tai vision seems 70 be focused on
Gatun dam.
When that canal is opened down
there, boys, Italians can send their
| fruit cheaper to the Pacific coast than
they can now ship it across this con-
| tinent.'
How about the heavy Republican
majority in this district, Bruder?" he
was asked.
i This is a Democratic year. Every
| body is for Wilson"
| Both arms are extended as though
| to embrace the whole world. Then
| they fall with wing-like flop to his
sides. His hands creep into his pock-
cts and his body assumes a defiant
poise.
Wilson is going to be the next
president. The house and senate will
be Democratic
/ Contradictions are slow for who
knows? Hence Bruder's defiance re-
mains unchallenged.

PERMISSION RECEIVED TO
OPEN EAST SIDE GATE

Permission was received from the
City of Mexico yesterday to open the
new gate in Mexico through which
Water Companies Nos. 5 and and
the Hotel Power company are served
with water from above Sharp's head
ing, and the poor water service of
the Eastside of late IS believed to be
permanently ended.
About five years ago diversion
works for the canals referred to were
rearranged. brush mats being placed.
Of late these mats have in part gone
out or been taken out, with the result
that great difficulty was experienced
in getting water to the land under
those canals.
But a day or two ago the last of
the mats went out, and this left a
serious situation for the time being
Two months ago there were sent to
Mexico maps and diagrams illustra-
tive of the new gate, which had just
been finished to replace the old diver
sion works, but there was some delay
in getting permission from the City
of Mexico to put the new heading into
commission, and it is that permission
that was received yesterday
C. n Perry, engineer for the Mexi-
can company, Immediately got busy to
open the new gate, and henceforth
the Eastside will have an abundance
of water, the old system of diversion
being abandoned.
The new gate is what is known as
the pin type. Instead of having fiat
board that are used to shut off the
discharge, this has a series of planks
that are placed in horizontal position
between | beams placed a foot apart,
and the discharging is decreased by
shutting off the width, rather than
the depth of the stream
This is sufficient answer to the
claim which has been made that the
Mexican company was endeavoring to
prevent the delivery of water on the
to get an order through the red tape
of government, even in this country,
is not an unusual delay.
During the last two years there has
been steady improvement to the water
distributing system, number of the
weak points in the system having been
improved, and the improvement here
noted is one of the most important,
putting all the land on the Eastside in
good condition, with a water and canal
capacity to meet any present prospec-
tive demand.
Teams began work this morning for
the opening of the new gate, and it is
expected that the water will become
available for the irrigatOrS early next
week.
