sent in to the interior of Cuba today.
This action was taken by Commander
Kline in charge of the naval station
lat Guantanamo on the representation
of a committee of Americans that they

adequate protection against the Cuban

grave and it was probable marines

A HOT DISCUSSION
OVER LIQUOR CASE
Causes the County Commits
sioners to Postpone Hear
ing the Arguments.

Some rather hot words passed be-
tween Attorney Boland of Indianapo-
lis, and Attorney Johnson, of this city,
at the meeting of the Wayne County
board of commissioners this morning,
during the discussion of the liquor re-
monstrances of Jackson and Jefferson
townships. AS is usually the case the
discussion between the attorneys turn
ed into personalities and the COM
missioners settled the argument by
postponing the hearing of the argu-
ments of the wet" and dry forces
until Saturday morning at 9 o'clock.
Boland representing the wet ele-
ment desired to have the remonstrance
in Jackson township considered by the
commissioners this morning. Johnson
declared that inasmuch as the drys
had not had enough time in which to
investigate the signatures on the re-
monstrances, that the commissioners
should postpone the matter indefinite
ly.
Il have other matters to attend to,
and cannot fool around this way with
this case," Boland interposed.
well I'm glad my friend Boland
has other business besides this" John
son replied caustically.
For fear that the argument, which
was becoming rather heated, would
grow too acriminious, the commits
sioners decided to postpone action on
the remonstrances until Saturday.
During the course of his prelimin-
ary arguments Boland alleged that the
signatures of three dead men were at
tached to the remonstrance in Jack
son township. He also made the state
ment that ten voters in that town
ship had signed the remonstrance
twice.
Further than that continued Boil
and, eve can prove that large num-
ber of the signers of the remonstrance
were not bona fide voters at the time
they signed it,
Up to the present it is believed the
vets have good ground to believe they
will win out in the jackson township
fight. They assert that they have
enough withdrawal cards to counter
act the majority on the remonstrance.
In all probability jefferson township
will remain dry TT has been dry for
the past four years.

CNationa1 News Association,


CHICAGO, June 5.-war without
compromise and with no quarter was
declared today by the leaders of the
Taft and Roosevelt forces gathered
for the national convention. Congress
man Mckinley in a peppery statement
asserted that Taft's denomination was
already certainty and virtually de
fed Roosevelt to visit the convention
in person. Senator Dixon, head of the
Roosevelt forces, who arrived during
the morning and went to the Roose-
welt headquarters in the Congress ho-
tel issued a statement equally fiery.
He asserted that the talk of Roose-
welt bolt, which has been assiduously
spread by the Taft faction was false.
Both men agreed that there would
be no surrender, no compromise-only
fight. McKinley's challenge to Roose-
velt to come to Chicago. say that his
presence here would only help the
cause of Taft, created sensation
among the politicians. That the Roose.
welt men expect the Colonel within a
week after the hearing begins. provid.
ed the contests are against him, is an
open secret. Mr.. McKinley's statement,
is is believed at Roosevelt headquar-
ters will spur the Colonel to make the
trip to Chicago in any event.
Congressman Mckinley gave out his
statement after a long conference with
rose of Pennsylvania, whose machine
was smashed by Roosevelt, and Sena.
tor Charles Dick of Ohio. At the con
ference it was decided that no conces.
sions would be made to the Roosevelt
men and this decision was received
gleefully by Harry s. New, chairman
of the arrangements committee and
Victor Rosewater, acting chairman OF
the national committee. The Taft lead
ers apparently had one objective only
to defeat Roosevelt at any cost. The
bitterness of the Taft faction against
Roosevelt is reflected in Mckinley
statement, which virtually reads
Roosevelt out of the party.
Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon, the Roose
welt manager. gave out the following
formal statement today:
The Taft people deliberately stole
the six delegates-at-large from Ohio
This was a cold blooded theft and in
volved political methods such as the
Roosevelt following would not stoop tc
adopt. The Ohio situation is a fine
contrast between the tactics of the
Roosevelt and the Taft factions. Ir
Massachusetts, where Taft carried the
state, Roosevelt took no technical ad
vantage and disclaimed the six dele
gates-at-large who declared for him
The talk of Roosevelt bolt ID pure
junk We have a majority of the dele
gates by a good wide margin"

Fields Shaft of Real Wit.

Charles A. Bigelow the comedian,
who died a few weeks ago, was made
to order for the wags of the old
Weber and Fields company, says a
Chicago writer He knew it, but he
couldn't defend himself and was
hoped on pretty regularly by Collier,
Daley and Fields. Bigelow's appear
ance led to one of the best impromptu
lines ever put over. One show pre-
scented him as a Spanish grandee who
was giving a garden party for his
daughter Gillian RusselD. Bigelow's
lean calves were in white stockings
and his bald head was partly covered
with bull fighters hat, worn rakish-
ly. Fields, looking him over, asked
the significance of the attire, and
Bigelow replied that he was dressed
that way out of compliment to his
daughter. All through the rehearsal
period Fields fshed for line to fit in
here, and it came the opening night
when he said: II should hate to see
you dressed as an insult"

IF there were any heroes on that
boat they were ingalls,, the wireless
operator and Chief Engineer Disney.
Both stuck to their posts until their
duty was done, and they were mostly
responsible for our safety"
That the fire started before the ship
left Baltimore was the opinion ex-
pressed by D. G. Cannon, passenger.
He declares he saw stevedores smok-
ing while storing cotton. 1t is his
theory that smoldering match or
cigarette started the blaze.

NO DINNER FOR BRUIN
SEARS ANTICIPATED FEAST DID
NOT MATERlALIZE.
Eagles Assumed They Had Prior
Claim on Sturgeon, and in the
Language of Modern SMALL
Boy, "Made Good"

An Oregon Bear who wanted a fish
dinner felt that his desire was in a
fair way to be satisfied when he
found a large sturgeon washed up on
the bank of the Columbia river. Two
eagles had claimed the prize by right
of discovery, but the bear at once
tried to dispossess them. The results
of his effort were disappointing to
him.
One of the eagles had flown to her
nest with pieces of the fish and the
other was picking away at the rem
nants when the bear came tearing
through the brush. Bruin walked
straight up to the feast, but the eagle
was not to be scared away. He flap
ped his wings and stood on the de-
fensive. The bear paused a moment
and then rushed at the eagle. The
bird eluded him and scared into the
air, screaming for his mate She came
swooping down from the nest and
joined forces in an attack on the bear,
which was so busy tearing the stur-
geon that he paid no attention to the
royal birds until they sank their talons
in his flesh.
The howl of rage which bruin let
out then showed that he had been
"both panied and hurt" He reared up
on his launches and clawed savagely
at the birds, which whirled easily
about him. One would make a dash
at his face and eyes, while the other
would hit him in the back of the neck
like a bolt from a catapult. For ten
minutes or more the bear stood up to
the scratch, but by that time he had
had scratching enough and began to
evince signs of wanting to get away.
AS soon as he was on all tours the
eagles were upon him, and he had to
get on his launches again to use his
paws effectively. The blood was
in great spots al over his glossy hide,
but the object of the eagles appeared
to be to get at his eyes, and he seemed
fully aware of it. He was very anxious
to get back to the cover of the brush,
and the eagles were just as anxious
to prevent him. Every time he turned
toward the bushes they would plump
down on his head and try to sink their
talons in his eyes, and drum his ear
with their strong pinions.
1t was nearly half an hour from the
time the bear came out of the brush
before he was able to drag himself
back under it's friendly cover, and he
was the most Notwithstanding bear
imaginable.
The eagles flew to tree and
smoothed their ruffed feathers. Then,
as their young were calling for more
food, they resumed their work of cary
ing and serving the sturgeon.
