BRYAN WILL NOT SPEAK
ON WILSON'S TRAIL

Miami, Jan. 27-Rumors that
William Jennings Bryan, former sec
retary of state, will trail President
Wilson on his speaking tour of the
south and west, were declared last
night by Mr.. Bryan to be without
foundation.
He said:
NO, l have made no change in my
plans since the announcement of the
presidents proposed trip. shall re-
main in Florida until the first Of
March and then go north, reaching
Lincoln, Neb., in time for dinner on
the twentieth of March.
81 shall speak at a number of
places. between March the first and
twentieth, but these have no connec-
tion with the presidents trip, being
acceptances of invitations received
before his speaking program was
made up.
"Some of these meetings will be
of a public character and some will
be lectures. In some the subject of
preparedness will be discussed along
the lines l have followed for the
past six months" Mr.. Bryan con-
cluded
Mr.. Bryan's birthday is the 18th
of March, which falls on Sunday
this year, accounting for the birth
day dinner to be held in Lincoln,
Neb., being held ON the following
day.

SOCIALISTS AGAINST WAR

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Jan 81
Dutch socialists conceive il TO be
their pecial task to bring together
their comrades of the belligerent ma
tions for common action against the
war. In this, they have so far not
succeeded. owing chiefly to the re-
fusal of the French and German So
cialists to cooperate to this end, ac-
cording to j H. Schaper, the prin-
cipal spokesman of the Social-Dem-
ocratic party at its conference just
held here.
Competition fomented by capital
ism, Mr.. Schaper declared, was the
cause of the European war, and it
rebounds to the credit of the social
lists OF all nations that they have
everywhere protested against it
Except in Germany" interrupted
a heckler, whereupon Schaper angri-
ly retorted that in Berlin two days
before the war the streets resounded
with anti-war songs and cries for
peace. The speaker denied that the
war had shown the fallibility of So
cialistic principles, and affirmed that
on the contrary they had fully JUS
titled themselves. The war, he con-
tended. has proved that socialism is
not an unattainable ideal, and he
pointed out that the state regulation
of food supplies and the establish
ment of maximum prices on the nee
essaries of life, as adopted at the
present time in most European coun-
tries, was the first step towards the
realization of the socialistic idea Of
distribution
Whether war will be possible
when socialism is adopted as basis
of government was a question he
said could not be an swered directly.
He saw severe pressure upon the
workers owing to the demands of all
the war; but socialism would, at the
same time, gain great influence.
Those who returned from the battle
fields would realize the misery
wrought by militarism, and join in
the struggle for democracy against
secret diplomacy, Mr.. Schaper, who
is a member of the recently appoint
ed commission for the taxation of
war profits in Holland, ended his
speech by announcing that bill on
this subject would be submitted to
the government shortly. Thus Hol-
land, he said, will come into line
with the belligerent countries,
where the enormous profits made on
war contracts will be compelled to
yield large proportion to the ma
tional exchequers.

INTERCOLLEGIATE FOOTBALL
RULES TO BE AMENDED

New York, Jan 27 The i've
day meeting Of the !ntercOl-
legiate football rules committee
set for New York Feb. 25 and 26 is
not likely to develop any radical
changes in the playing code for next
season. Park Davis, the Princeton
University delegate to the meeting
in discussing the possible action at
the conference, said recently
From the east arises a cry that
to secure touchdown the ball
should be actually touched behind
the goal line. From the west comes
suggestion that the try for goal
following a touchdown should be
abolished. The movement to require
the balI actually to be touched down
behind the line to constitute touch
down arises from the disputes OF
spectators following two instances in
the major games of the east in which
some of the latter believed that the
bail IN each instance actually crossed
the line although the officials in
these games ruled otherwise.
"The movement to abolish the
goal following a touchdown has al
ways had its advocates and has been
strongly advanced many times before
the rules committees. The goal af-
ter touchdown, however. has been
and should be retained in the game
because of its great historical inter
est because il is an attractive fea-
ture of play and because no sound
argument has been or can be ad-
yanced for its elimination.
"a feature of play that really
calls for action is the practice which
appeared here and there during the
fall among players on defense OF ig'
noring the flight of the ball on for
ward pass and deliberately putting
the player trying to recover the bal
ont of the play by violent body
blocking at the expense of a ten
yard penalty. This is the only glar'
ing defect that the threshing season
of 1915 disclosed in the present
rules.

WIRE-TAPPING sWINDLERS
HAVE REACHED DAYTONA

The nerve of that bunch-the
wire-tappers! There are probably no
lawbreakers more bold nor defiant,
They gleefully and viciously stick

public nor the officers, they are not

limited limit.
These nervy confidence men"
the wire tappers, who waddled out
of Daytona last season with some
where between $4,000 and $4,000
and who threw open their doors for
the seasons run some two weeks
ago, are going about seeking whom
they may devour without the slight

A couple of the wire-tappers actu-

Great guns, what a lump of sophisti-
Gated gall. They looked as meek

This was too much for the man, and
