Alleged Plan of Conspiracy.

Undermining in this way the influence
the President has had with Congress, the
conspirators are represented as hoping
to discredit the President so thoroughly
that he will lose in the Senate on the
repeal of canal tolls, be compelled to
adopt a more virile policy on Mexico and
in the end become so unpopular in his
own party as to bring to life and power
the elements in the democratic party
that failed in the Baltimore convention
With Wilson eliminated as a future
power in the party the same influences
now boosting Col. Roosevelt would. the
Wilson democrats say. turn upon Roose-
welt and pull him down also
How much Col. Roosevelt has been
impressed with the necessity for at once
beginning attacks upon the adminlstra-
ton as weak and vacillating on canal
tolls and on Mexico by the influences
operating against the man in the White
House prediction does not register today:
1t Is known. though, that the colonel
believes the chance is here to revive
the half-dead progressive party by
again burying the republican party,
becoming trustee of its assets and turn
ing the combined republican and pro.
gressive parties, probably under the
name of progressive-republi party,
upon an enfeebled and debilitated dem
ocratic party, the leader of which, they
will assert, has utterly failed to sense
and hold popular favor.

Pennsylvania His Battle GROUND.

pennsylvania his battle 1ropno.
1t became known today that the colonel
has decided to cast practically the en-
tire future of the progressive party upon
the senatorial election In Pennsylvania.
He will begin within month a personal
campaign for the election of Clifford Pin
chot. his longtime friend and supporter.
to the Senate. If Pinchot defeats Sena-
tor Penrose and Representative Fftchell
Palmer President Wilson's friend, Roose-
welt will use that as positive evidence
that the country has no confidence in
either of the old parties, and will turn
his attention to letting the rank and file
of the republican party know that if
they expect their wishes and desires to
be correctly interpreted they must turn
to him and his party.
High officials of the administration do
not express fear of Col. Roosevelts s being
taken back into the arms of all the vot-
ers of the country as the sole human be-
ing able to satisfy public opinion, thereby
bringing about the dissolution of the
democratic party and oblivion for its
present leaders. 1t is recognized by demo-
Gratis that the party and the President
are both getting some bad bumps right
now. but theX say the undulations of the
political tide, ever restless in ebb and
flow, will have a favorable change before
a great while and that there is no proph-
happen in a few more months.
Views of Leading Democra
A leading democrat stated today that il
prosperity begins to poke its nose out Of
its retirement hole in the next few
months, through bountiful crops and
other happenings that are expected.
neither Col Roosevelt nor any combina-
ton of men will be able to stop the
party's return to power. On the other
hand, If prosperity, like the ground hog.
remains in retirement, 1t is all over for
the party, and the only question IS as
to whether the beneficiary will be Col
Roosevelt and his progressive party or
the old-time and historic republican
party.
If there Is going to be political funeral
of the democratic party, the leaders do
not care much who conducts the service
or divides the estate afterward.

clasped hands heartily. Runnels had
struck the right note Beside his for
mer desire to prove himself a man,
Kirk now felt q strong sense Of loyalty
to the one who had recognized his
worth.
When he told his good news to Mrs.
| Cortlanlt. her surprise was so cleverly
simulated that he never dreamed that
| she had been at great pains to bring
! this thing about. Not that Runnels
was indSpoSed to act upon his own in

made his action possible had been due
4 to her. It was hard to help a man
against his will. but she profited by cX-
perpncc and tool; the line Of least re-
sistance.
The Young man himself did not in
quire too closely into the occasion Of
his advancement. and Edith Cortlandt
was hut little in his mind. He was
consumed with the thought Of Chiqui-
ia. He hoped that his new work
would allow him more control of his
time and perhaps put him in the way
of learning her name. He could move
in better society now.

CHAPTER XIV.
GaraveI and His Daughter.

/" 1IIESE were busy days for the
Cortlandts They entertained
E,W,:S constantly, and the occasions
@.Agi when they lined without
from one to Il dozen guests became so
exceptional as to elicit remark aroHnd
the hotel. Most of their efforts were
devoted to certain Panamanians of the
influential class. and in company with
one or more of these Cortlandt made
frequent trips to the various quarters
of the republic, sometimes absenting
himself for days at Il time.
During these intervals his wife as
sllmed the direction of affairs and con-
tinucd to entertain or be entertained.
Her energy and resource seemed mex
haustble Soon she became the social
dictator of the city, and the most eX-
, elusive circles, American and Pana-
manian alike, allowed her to assume
control.
The result was just what had been
designed Tourists and whiting news
paper people spoke glowingly Of the
amity between the two nations and
wondered at the absence Of that Span
ish prejudice of which they had heard
so much. Those who CHANGED to know
the deeper significance of it all and
were aware of the smoldering resent
ment that lay in the Latin mind COM
mented admiringly upon her work and
wondered what effect it would have
upon the coming election.
No one but the woman herself and
her husband really understood the ire
mendous difficulties of their task or
the vital issues at stake. All who
came into contact with her recognized
the master mind directing the cam
paign and. consciously or unconscious
", relegated her husband to the back
ground.
To the Latin intellect this display OF
power on the part of the woman was
revelation. She knew the effect she
produced and made the most of it.
Old Anibal Alfarez was perhaps the
last fully to appreciate her. He did,
however, learn in time that while he
could successfully match his craft
against that of the husband, the wife
read him unerringly. The result was
that he broke with them openly.
When news of this reached the mem-
bers of the canal commission they
were alarmed. and Colonel Jolson felt
it necessary to make known their
! views upon the situation. Accordingly,
few nights later the Cortlandts dined
I at his handsome residence on the
heights above Culebra. After their re-
turn TO Panama the colonel, in whom
was vested the supreme authority over
his nations interests, acknowledged
that his acquaintance with diplomacy
was as nothing as compared with
Edith Cortlandt's.
"She thinks Garavel is the proper
man." he said to Colonel Bland.
"Garavel is a banker. He's not Q
politician"
