BIG ONES ARE ABSENT
sect Together Meeting of Northwest
ern Democrats Disappointment.

Fargo, Jan. 18.-With w. J. Bryan
unable to come, Governor Norris of
Montana absent, Judge NJ J. Wade i'll
at his home in Iowa and GOV. Judson
Harmon of Ohio having returned to
his home last night, the banquet which
was to have been the feature of the
''get together meeting of the north
western Democrats here today was
had been expected Governor Harmon
and Bryan would meet here. The
committee of arrangement had been
in doubt for some time whether Bryan
would come, as nothing had been
heard from him. Last night, however,
a message was received from him dat
ed Jacksonville, Fla, expressing his
regrets at being unable to come ana
urging the Democrats to exert them
selves for the party's success.
1.-The prospects for this fall are very
encouraging said Mr.. Bryan in his
message, but so much depends on the
record made by congress and on the
action of the convention that it be-
hooves every Democrat to exert him
self to the utmost to strengthen the
partys hold on public confidence. The
allied forces of predatory wealth were
never more active. We cannot afford
to compromise with Wall street"
Despite the absence of men of ma
tional prominence from the Democratic
banquet, however, there was a big at
tendance and enthusiasm ran high. The
Democrats freely declared that Gov.
Harmon had made a good impression
while here.
Speakers at the banquet today include
Fred Whiteside and Thomas J. Walsh OF
Montana, and c. G. Heiffner of Seattle
campaign manager of Woodrow Wilson
| in the west. Former Senator Pettigrew
! of South Dakota is expected to arrive late
today to address the banquet
According to the statement of Mr.. Heif-
ner the support of Governor Wilson by
Harper's Weekly was personal on the part
of Colonel Harvey and subjected him to
criticism by the magazines owners. Mr..
Hefffner also declared that Governor Will
son was Of the opinion that it would in
dieate support from J. P. Morgan and
the suggestion was made to Colonel Har-

HOME RULE THE CRY
Ireland Is All Wrought Up Over the
Campaign.

Dublin. Jan. 1S-Most of the active
politicians now having returned from a
brief holiday, interest in the home rule
campaign is becoming more acute every
day.
During the last few weeks the Union
lists have made much use of the recent
papal decree forbidding Catholics under
pain of accommodation to summon &c
clesiastics before the lay tribunals. Pat
rick O'Donnell bishop of Raphoe, has
now followed Archbishop Walsh of Dub
lin in expressing the opinion that the
papal decree not not apply to Ireland.
John Dillon and John Redmond, nation
alist leaders, today gave out statements
in regard to land purchase in Ireland.
John Dillon in letter concerning the
tenants in the county of Clare who have
not been able to effect purchases of their
land under the terms of the land purchase
act of 1903, which empowered the govern
nent to lend money to tenants to enable
them to purchase their holdings, says:
IF the lords uphold home rule it will
be necessary to institute a campaign on
the land question and bring pressure to
bear on the landlords of the county of
Clare to sell their estates on reasonable
terms

JURORS GROWING FAT
Trial of Chicago Packers Likely to
Last All Summer.

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-United States
District Judge Carpenter is closely
guarding the health Of the jury in
the trial of the ten Chicago meat
packers charged with criminal viola
ton of the Sherman law. He receives
a report every morning from the bail
ifs on the physical condition of the
jurymen and gives instructions in re-
gard to their care.
The jury has been living at a down
town hotel under guard since Deem
Der 10, and thus far no mem Der has
complained of illness.
The trial may last until May and
Judge Carpenter is anxious to avoid
having the proceedings halted through
the Hines of any of the jurors.
One of the jurors has gained Is
pounds and nearly every other mem
Der of the body has gained five
rises before o'clock every morning
and is taken for two mile walk after
breakfast.
Sunday morning they attend ser

tended two theater performances in
six weeks.
Spends Time Tying Knots.
Thomas Scott was a sailor for 20
years before being accepted on the
jury and has bought large coil of
rope which he uses in tying knots dur
ing his idle moments.
Taking of testimony began Decem-
Der 81, and only nine witnesses have
been heard. In addition to their tes-
timony eighty voluminOus statistical
documents have been offered.
At the present rate it is estimates
that it will take the government until
May l to complete the presentation
OF its case, as District Attorney WIKI
erson still has about 70 more wit
nesses to be called. The defense ex-
poets to call 100 or more witnesses and
offer mass of docum entary evidence
so that the trial may not be concluded
until next August or September.
District Attorney Wilkerson today
checked over the list of government
witnesses with a view to shortening
the hearing. The plan now is to limit
the questioning of witnesses to ma
terial points and introduce nothing
but important documentary evidence
in the hope of concluding the trial in
May. Harry A. Tirnmins chief ac-
countant for Morris and company be-
gan his sixth day on the witness stand

GRAIN men MEET
Two Important Questions to BE De
cided Before Adjournment.

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-Members of the coun-
ell OF grain exchanges which began a two
days session here today with representa-
tives in attendance from Chicago. Kansas
City, St Louis. Philadelphia. Minneapolis
Milwaukee New York, San Francisco and
other cities will take action on two i'm
journing-
One is a resolution submitted which all
the grain exchanges will be asked to
adopt later. 1t seeks to prohibit offers
to buy or sell large quantities of grain or
seeds for future delivery with limitations
requiring the buyer or seller to purchase
or sell the entire amount offered.
The resolution provides that all such
bids must be open for acceptance by any
members in lots of five thousand bushels
or muitiphes thereof.
The other important subject is a sug-
gestion that all the exchanges adopt "cal-
endar'' days as BIAS of shipment in
stead of business days. Nine members OF
the council have already adopted this
system.
