HUGHES ACCUSES
DEMOCRATS OF
SEC1|ONALlSM
Republican Nominee Alleges
He Wants "Pitiless Pub
]icity' Always.

Billings, Mont, Aug 11.-Charles
q. Hughes, addressing an audience
here tonight, prefaced his advocacy
of protective tariff, with the decla-
ration that if he should be elected
president, nothing would be pulled
off, for private benefit at the public
expense, if he could prevent. Mr.
Hughes also adopted a Democratic
slogan of the 1912 campaign, "Pitiless
publicity"
IL desire that in all that we do in
this campaign" said Mr.. Hughes, ITO
have what was called four years ago
'pitiless publicity | want pitiless
publicity with respect to the pork
barrel and with respect to the Sec
tionalism and extravaganza and
wastefulness of this administration. !"
Mr.. Hughes also assailed the adj
ministration for having changed it's
tariff views since 1912 and repeated
his declaration in favor of a protec-
tive tariff enactment, whose enforce
ment should be left to the Republi-
can party. He will speak at Helena
tomorrow.

Or. MURPHY, FAMOUS
surgeon, IS DEAD
His Is Third Death Among Those Who
PartOOk of Poisoned Soup at
Banquet to Bishop.

Macklnac Island, Wis, Aug. IL
DR.. John B. Murphy of Chicago, one
of the worlds most renowned sur
geons, died today suddenly at hotel
here while on summer outing. An
attack Of heart disease was the imme-
diate cause Of death.
Dr. Murphy had been in poor health
for several months, and some had
ascribed his condition to the poison
soup partaken at the banquet given to
Archbishop Mundelein at the Univer-
sity club in Chicago last winter
The famous surgeon, who recently
was knighted by Pope Benedict for
his researches in surgery, was So
years old. He first came into inter-
national fame through his specialize
ing in intestinal disorders, and in
vented what was known as the Muir
ply button, making possible opera
tons which heretofore had been
deemed impossible. He was credited
by many with being the first surgeon
to perform operations for appendi-
citis.

WOMEN'S PARTY TO
OPPOSE DEMOCRATS

Colorado Springs, Aug. 1.-THE
National Women's party, in national
conference here, today pledged itself
to use it's best efforts in the IL equal
suffrage states to defeat the Demo
cratic presidential candidate for presi-
dent, congratulated the Progressives,
Prohibitionist and Socialists parties
on their endorsement of suffrage for
women by national action, and COM
mended the position of Mr.. Hughes,
the Republican nominee.
Until all the women of the United
States are free, none of them are free,
declared Mrs. Florence Bayard Hilles,
of Wilmington, Del, in speaking here
tonight at the conference of the Ma
tional Woman's party. Mrs. Hilles,
herself Democrat and the daughter
of the late Thomas Bayard, secretary
of state under Cleveland and this
country's first ambassador to Great
Britain, asserted that there had been
"gross injustice" shown by the pres
ent house judiciary committee toward
the Susan B. Anthony amendment and
the efforts of the women to have it
given a fair trial.

LARGER TAX ON
BIG INCOMES IS
decided upon
Democratic Senate Caucus
Approves Plan for In
creasing Revenue.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE Demo-
cratic senate caucus tonight approved
a committee amendment to the reve-
nue. bill which would increase the
surtaX on incomes in excess of ST.
100000 from 10 per cent to 10 per
cent. Withdrawal by the committee
Of anamendment to reduce income ex-
emptions of $4,000 and $4,000 re-
spectively for single and married per-
sons prevented a threatened caucus
revolt on that issue, but there was a
persistent fight by several senators
to increase further the surtax on large
incomes.
The caucus did not reach tonight
the inheritance tax increases or the
amendment substituting net profit
taxes on manufactures of munitions.
1t will meet again tomorrow after
noon.

Disease Has Been Known in
China for Centuries as
Wong Sab.
CHINESE DOCTORS
SUGGEST REMEDY
Because Opinion OF Chinese Physi-
clans So Different from That OF De-
cidentaI Doctors, Medicine Sug-
gcSted Not to BE Used Just Yet.

New York, Aug. 11.-Dr Lee Hang
Gee and DR.. Yuan Hook Ting report
ed to Health Commissioner Emerson
today that an investigation in cases
of infantile paralysis here had con
WINGED them that the disease was
similar to wong sab, which has pre-
vailed in China for centuries and
which always has been attributed to
atmosphere conditions, similar
to the "Bermuda high" which recent
ly passed over the Eastern states.
The Chinese physicians said that
the peculiar atmosphere pcrmeated
the pores of young children, reducing
blood pressure, whereupon circula-
ton became sluggish and the limbs
ceased to perform their function.
Commissioner Emerson said that
the Chinese viewpoint is so different
from that of the occidental physicians,
that he did not care to make a state
ment.
If it was shown that the medicine
the Chinese had recommended was
not harmful, and if there was reason
to believe it might do good, it pos
sibly would be used, he said.
Improvement in hospital cases
treated by blood serum was reported.
The epidemic showed another slight
decline today, and health experts
were more hopeful that the cool
weather would check the spread of the
plague. The daily bulletin of the
health department shows that during
the "a hours ending at 10 a. m. today
81 children died of the disease, and
165 new cases were reported.

Only Hope for Settlement
Rests on Whether Men
Accept Arbitration.
WE WON'T WAIT
LONG" SAYS STONE
Leader OF Engineers Declares Carry
ing Around Strike Vote Is Like
Having Custody OF Stick
OF Dynamite.

New York, Aug. Whether the
leaders Of 100000 employees of the
railroads of the country will make
good their threat Of general strike
unless their demands for an eight
hour day and time and a half for over
time are granted by the managers of
225 railway systems, probably will be
known tomorrow, it was learned to-
night.
The only hope of peaceful settle
ment apparently rests upon the pos
sibility that the men might be induced
although thus far they have stead
tasty refused all such proposals.
Their chief objection to arbitration
has been lack of representation upon
any Of the boards provided under
existing statutes.
The members of the federal board
of mediation and Cancellation are said
to be hopeful that an expansion of
the size of the board provided for
under the Newlands act may meet
this objection. If this suggestion is
not accepted, it was said tonight, the
mediation board will have failed in
it's efforts and the only recourse will
be an appeal to President Wilson to
USE his influence to avert strike. 1t
was pointed out, however, that the
presidents powers will be limited to
suggestions and recommendations
Increase Size of Board.
The principal feature of the plan is
said to be the formation of a board
of arbitration that will give each of
the brothcrhoods a representative on
the board, while the arbitrators of
the railways will be increased to an
equal number, with four neutral mem
bers, making a total membership of
~.
A formal request for a 24-hour de-
lay in the negotiations was made by
the board to the union men today
when they assembled to receive the
and it was reported that
the board, unless there was an I'M
expected change in the situation in
that time, would suggest to President
Wilson that he intervene.
owe do not intend" said w. S.
Ston, chief of the Brotherhood of
Railway Engineers, "to wait very long
on the mediators. The temperament
of the men is such that they would
not have waited minute if we had
not persuaded them to give the media
tors chance. Personally, l do not
care to carry the strike vote around
in my pocket for any extended period.
It is like stick of dynamite"
