SPLITSIN CABINET OF PRESIDENT
WILSON BELIEVED TO BE
IMPENDING.
CHARGE THAT TOLLS PLANK
WAS "JokER" RESENTED
intinatiors Indicate Lively Quarrel
When Question Reaches Floor Of
Senats-censpiracy Alleged to Have
Existed at Baltimore Convention to
Make Bryan Party Nominee.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, Feb. IA democratic
row Of far-rea ching consequences Is
likely to be stirred on the floor OF
house and senate over the effort to
repeal the free tolls clause Of the Pan
ANA, canal act despite the fact the
Baltimore platform specifically in
dorses free tolls. Already charges of
bad faith and Of secret political deals
are being banded about. If these
crop out in debate, as they are likely
to. democratic harmony will be rudely
Jared
Secretary Bryan promises to be
drawn into the controversy. Henry
Watterson has charged that the free
tolls provision was a Joker" inserted
not made a statement but his friends
intimate that he was deceived. tho he
was chairman Of the resolutions COM
mittees
President Wilson Is trying to get the
free tolls provision repealed despite the
plank in the Baltimore platform.
Political ConSpiraSies.
In this situation, there are intima-
tons that when the controversy gets
to the floor Of the senate there will
be some startling revelations of the
inside workings Of the political wheels
at the Baltimore convention. These
revelations will have to DO with plans
said to have been afoot to make Bryan
and not Wilson the nominee. 1t is de-
c!ared there will be told story OF ne
gCtiations between Bryan's friends and
some of the democratic reactionaries
whom he later denounced that will be
interesting reading. In this connection,
it is promised the rea! story Of the
free tolls plank will be Illuminated.
1t is too early to tell how far the
row is going. It has led TO threats Of
highly edifying political revelations
which If actually made might mean
a cabinet split.
"Joksr" Charge Resented.
Opponents Of free tolls are now try.
ing to make it appear the free tolls
plank was slipped thru as a Joker
but this charge Is resented by the
friends of free tolls. 1t so happens
that Senator O'Gorman. who is for free
tolls, was head of the subcommittee
which prepared the platform. Others
on the sub committee were Senators
Kern. Culberton Rayner. Walsh. Pom
creme. and Martin: Alexander NJ
Dockery, Of Missouri; Samuel w. Bel
form. Of Nevada: Congressman Brous-
sard. of Louisiana: and George w.
Fithian. OF Illinois.
Plank Unanimously Adopted.
The proceedings show the convention
unanimously adopted the free tolls
plank. No objection was made to 1t.
And a member Of the subcommittee on
platform is authority for the statement
no objection was made in committee
and that Mr.. Bryan approved every
plank which went into the platform.
In the last few days. 1t has become
clear that 1t is the purpose OF the
democratic leaders in congress. urged
on by the president, to rush thru the
bill for repeal OF free tolls not only in

Des Moines, Feb. IA claim for
s21,S1o.50 was filed in the district court
yesterday against G. H. York, bankrupt
grocer of Colfax. by the Citizens State
bank OF that place. 1t is claimed that
York has an overdraft of s11.335.95 at
the institution. The remainded of the
amount represents notes the grocer ex-
ecuted to the bank and failed to pay.
The first meeting of the grocer
creditors was held in the office of II.

reversal Of the Baltimore platform but
prepared to defend this course on the
ground the free tolls plank In the plat
form never really represented the san.
timent of the convention.
Senator O'Gorman Is the head Of the
canals committee of the senate and 10
going to lead in the opposition In the
senate to the abandonment OF tree
tolls. 1t il not expected he will sit
down quietly and let the charge rest
that the free tolls plank was 'joker''
and that there was any deception In
getting it adopted. inasmuch az he
was head Of the platform sub-com-
mittee Of the resolutions committee at
Baltimore.

REPLY TO KINGS SPEECH.
Proposed Amendment to Home Rule
Bill Disastrous to Cause.

London, Feb. II. The question
whether home rule for Ireland should
include the northern province Of Ulster
was discussed again todae in the house
Of commons. Sir John Simon, the at
torney general, attacked the unionist
amendment in a reply TO the kings
speech. This amendment declares cit
would be disastrous for the house to
proceed farther with the government
for Ireland bill until the MEASURE had
been submitted to the judgment of the
country.
The attorney general said:
THE real purpose Of this amendment
is to tear up the parliamen. act. Even
in event OF election returning liberals
10 power it would be a new parliament
and the house would be free to block
the home rule for another three ses-
sions"
Sir Edward Carson, head Of the
provincial government OF Ulster, said:
Never before in a speech from the
throne has statement of such gravity
been mentioned for the fellow citizens
Of Ireland as that made by King
George.
THE words put in the kings mouth
by the cabinet ministers is a condem-
i; nation Of the home rule bill and a con-
fession that it has utterly failed to fur
nish a solution Of the Irish question.
There is small wonder, in view of this
confession. that the government shirks
the idea Of leaving the decision to the
voice OF the people.
Tf Premier Asquith's promised 'sug-
gestions' intend to draw Ulster Within
the grip Of the Dublin parliament I
will stand with the people Of Ulster in
their policy Of resistance"

The fact that Mrs. Fannie Bloomfield

true, but such is the case and her ap-

The opportunity of hearing this won
derful performer will without doubt
bring a large number of music lovers
from surrounding towns, and it is
certain that the seating capacity of
Miss Bells studio will be taxed on this
occasion.
Following is the program which
Mrs. Zeisler will give in Americas, it
