San Francisco October 81 on matters
of business relating largely to the
part whicn these islands will play In
the Panama-Pacific Exposition in
1916, one of his first undertakings
will be to interview the various

various phases OF the events leading
up to the sale At one point, asked
if he or Captain Miller held much
converse with J. w. Hayward during

that he and Hayward were so much

RUSSIAN DYNASTY
IS ENDANGERED
WRITER IN FREE RUSSIA" SAYS
NICHOLAS MAY BE LAST TO
OCCUPY THRONE.
lBI Associated PreSS.l

London, Nov. 15.-The Russian dy-
nasty is in imminent danger of dying
out and the present Emperor Nicholas
is likely to be the last of the Roman
offs to occupy the Imperial throne, &C
cording to a writer in Free Russia"
newspaper appearing here. He says.
THE young Alexis, the Emperor's
only son, is suffering from an incur
able disease-tuberculo of the bones,
it is said-and can only be kept alive
a few months longer. The Emperor
himself has become the victim of fits
of melancholy. His consort, the UNI
fortunate Empress, is still suffering
acutely from a complete nervous break
down. The question arises, therefore,
who will be the heir to Nicholas the
Second, or will he be the last of the
autocrats of Russia? The daughters
of Nicholas cannot ascend the throne
because Paul |, who hated his august
mother. Catherine the Great, made
law whereby it became impossible for
a woman to reign in Russia. Therefore,
in case of the demise of Nicholas Ii,
the throne should fall to his brother
Michael But this is hardly possible,
since he has renowned all his rights
and has married morganically a
Russian lady with whom he lives very
happily far from court intrigues."
The writer then discusses the Grand
Dukes, but finds insuperable objections
to all of them.

MAD SUFFRAGETTE
ATTACKS REDMOND

Newcastle, England, Nov. 15.-John
Redmond, the Irish leader, and his
wife were attacked by suffragette
Friday while on train at Durham.
The suffragette entered the compart
ment where Mr.. and Mrs Redmond were
seated, and, after declaring that the
Irish leader had not done enough for
the women of Ireland, struck him on
the head and Mrs. Redmond on the
back. She then scattered the contents
of bag of flour over Mr.. and Mrs.
Redmond. A train attendant elected
the woman and handed her over to
the police
Mr.. Redmond, in a speech delivered
in the Town Hall here Friday evening,
said there was no demand, however
eXtravagant or unreasonable, that
might be put forth on behalf of the
Ulster Unionists which the National
lists would not be ready to consider as
long as it was consistent with the prin-
ciple of self-government for Ireland.

a trifie weak from his recent illness,
Henry Gassaway Davis, former United
States Senator and in 1904 nominee
for vice president of the United States
ON the Democratic ticket, will celebrate
tomorrpw the Goth anniversary of his
birth with a fair prospect of being
able to enjoy life for some years to
come His days of strenuous activity
have passed, it is true, but the veneer
able ex-senator is too active and ener-
getic a man to allow himself to give
up all work. He has retired from
active political life and transferred the
greater part of the work connected
with the management of his numerous
and important business interests to
younger shoulders, but his mind is still
active and clear and he still continues
to superintend the various enterprises
in which he is financially interested.
Henry Gassaway Davis was not born
in the lap of wealth. He was born IN
Baltimore, November 16, 1928, as the
son of poor parents. He was a boy IN
his teens when his father died. and he
was forced to shift for himself and to
help in supporting his mother. For
a while he worked on farm, but at
the ago of nineteen he obtained posi-
ton as a brakeman on freight tram
on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
His work was so satisfactory that he
was soon promoted to be freight con-
ductor and afterward passenger con-
ductor. He was quick to realize the
great possibilities of what was then
Western Virginia. He foresaw It's de-
yelopment and invested his savings IN
these rich lands The outbreak of the
Civil war found him a man of means
When the great conflict was at an end
and West Virginia had become a sep
arate commonwealth, Mr. DAVIS
branched forth into still greater fields
of effort. He became conspicuously
identified with all the states leading
interests. in the production of coal, oil
and timber, in railroad building, town
building and a dozen or more enter
prises of various kinds.
Mr.. Davis first entered politics at the
close of the war. Having been strong
union man his sympathies were at
first with the Republican party, then
newly born, and he became candidate
for the legislature. A few years later,
however, he cut loose from the Repuo-
lican organization and Joined the OPP
position. In 1866 he was elected to the
lower house in the legislature as
Union Conservative. and took a lead
ing part in its deliberations. Two
years later he was chosen state senator
as a Democrat
In 1871 he was elected United States
Senator from West Virginia as Demo
crat, receiving almost unanimous sup
port of the legislature. Six years later
he was reelected. At the expiration
of his second term he declined to be-
come a candidate for reelection, fear
ing that his political duties would inter
fere with his large business interests.
He continued, however, to take an &C.
tive interest in politics.
In the Democratic national conven-
ton in 1884 Senator Davis was one of
the foremost candidates for Vice Presi-
dent, and doubtless could have had
the nomination, had he not refused it.
He supported Thomas A. Hendricks,
who was nominated on the ticket with
Cleveland and elected. In 1888 Mr..
Davis was urged to accept the Demo
