TAFT DENOUNCES
PLUMB PLAN AS
TOO SOC|AL|ST|C
lev MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wiRsi

Cincinnati, o., Aug. lot is rad
ically socialistic and ought to be
fought" william II. Taft said of the
Plumb plan for administration of the
railroads. in a statement here tonight.
II very much disapprove of the
plan. | am almost certain the repub-
licans will oppose the Plumb plan,
and | hope the democrats do, too. We
should not let the soviet system gain
even a toe-hold in America" he said.
II do believe in close supervision of
the railroads of the country but such
supervisions we have had has been
too severe. We should give the rail-
roads chance, give them adequate
revenues by proper rates so they can
attract the necessary capital for nee
essary maintenance and improve
ments. We have not allowed rates to
go up as they should.
Referring to the strikes of railroad
shopmen throughout the country and
demands of other railroad unions for
increased wages, Mr.. Taft said:
while | have not gone into the
subject with the thoroughness to war
rant a final judgment, / will say that
from what do know. it seems to me
that the men are requesting a greater
increase than the percentage of in
crease in the cost of living warrants.
Thus it appears they are asking more
than they are entitled to receive"

NORMAL CONDITIONS
EXPECTED QUICKLY

Washington, Aug. 10.-Develop-
ments over the week end are expected
to result in almost normal conditions
tomorrow in every railroad shop
where men have been on strike.
Director General Hines is ready to
undertake negotiation of wage de-
mands as directed by President Will
son, as soon as the men return to
work. In view of President Wilson's
specific instructions that the whole
matter would have to be "at stand
still' so long as an illegal strike con-
tinued, the demand of men in some
places for wage increases before 60
ing back to the job. it was learned,
cannot alter the situation.

FAME AND RICHES CAME
AFTER JOSEPH BLAKELOCK
WAS IN INSANE HOSPITAL
CBy Morning journal Special Leased wirel

= New York, Aug. 10.-Ralph Blake
lock, whose power as a painter was
recognized only after he had been
committed to the Middletown asylum
for the insane, died yesterday at a
camp in the Adirondacks. according
to word received here today,
Born in New York in 1S47 and al
most wholly self-educated in his art,
Mr. Blakelock never realized to the
full the fame his work had brought
him and received only a pittance of
the fortune his talents earned.
For many years he hawked his
paintings about New York. obtaining
for them never more than a few dol
lars and undergoing the severest hard
ships.
In 1899 his mind gave way under
the strain and he was taken to the
asylum, suffering principally from a
delusion that he was the possessor Of
great wealth,

YORKSHIRE STRIKE is
FAR FROM SETTLEMENT

London, Aug. 10.-(Via MontreaLl
The strike in the Yorkshire coal
fields, involving 100000 miners, ap-
rarenty will be fought to finish.
The coal controller yesterday told the
mons leaders it was impossible to
Concede their demands. To do so he
said would mean a strike in every coal
field in the country for similar con-
cessions.
No further conference with a view
to arriving at a settlement have been
arranged. 1t is said the strikers
funds will last only another fortnight.
Already a quarter of a million pounds
sterling have been spent in strike pay.

He remained there continuously for
seventeen years, during which his
paintings had been recognized al their
true value and he became a member
of the National academy and received
honorable mention at Paris eXposi-
ton.
Partially restored in mind, he was
brought back to New York by friends
in 1906.
For time it was believed that he
would wholly recover and perhaps
paint again. A year later, however,
he was returned to the asylum.
He was brought hack to New York
again several months ago but again
was returned to the hospital. Then
followed a trip to the Adirondacks,
where he died.
Many of his paintings were of In
dian scenes painted early in his ca
reer during a stay in the primitive
west.

Large Number of Federal Sol

10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrssI

El PaSo, Tex, Aug. 10--A plot to
have the Chihuahua City garrison re-
volt against the Carranza command
ers and join Villa Friday was discoy-
cred early Wednesday morning and
a large number of federal officers
and soldiers. including one brevet
general, were placed in the federal
penitentiary, charged with melting a
mutiny, according to American and
Mexican passengers arriving from
Chihuahua City today.
Significant shots Heard.
The passengers said they heard
shots fired in the patio Of the peni-
tentiary before they left, and said this
started rumors in the state capital
that the leaders of the mutiny had
been executed although this was not
confirmed when they left for the bor-
der, they said, All kilograms and mail
is being closely censored out Of Chi
huahua City, they said, to prevent
news Of the attempted revolt reaching
other parts of the state, where fed
eral troops are stationed. one of the
passengers estimated the number of
federal prisoners in the penitentiary,
arrested following the discovery of the
plot, to be 1000, including many Off
GERS from the rank of sub-leutenant
to breVet general, but this Is consid-
cred to be an exaggerated estimate of
the number of arrests
How Plot Was Discovered.
The plot, which had been planned
For several weeks, was discovered
when two of the leaders went to jim
enez and Santa Rosalia to induce the
Earrisons there to revolt. An effort
was made to have "a colonel named
Hernandez join the revolt, as he had
been deprived of his command by
Gen. Manuel DieEucz recently, instead
of joining the plot, he telegraphed
Gen. Enrique Martinez, chief of staff
to General Dieguez, giving the details
of the plot as 1t was revealed to him,
Arrests o. the leaders in Chihuahua
City and Santa Rosalia followed, ac-
cording to the reports brought to the
border today.
To Mutiny Friday.
The plan was to have the garrison
mutiny against the loyal officers at
reveille Friday morning, sending a
courier to villa, telling him to come
and assume command of the troops
and accept the surrender of the city,
the passengers said A federal colonel,
learning of the discovery of the plot
cary Wednesday, escaped with his
command of $50 men and is reported
to be marching to join Villa south of
Parral, these reports stated Loyal
troops are said to be pursuing the bat
talon and trains have been annulled
to prevent them from capturing a
train and making their escape.

Al HANHhOAA
In loving memory of our dear wife
and mother, Nina M. Reusch (nee
Gordon), who through fire and burn
ing to death one year ago on April
/, 1918, was lost to US.
Meath our eyes she slowly faded,
Growing day by day more frail;
Bearing sweetly all her suffering
Without murmur, without wall.
The flowers we lay upon her grave
May wither and decay,
But her memory is as dear to us
AS the hour she passed away.
Tears of sorrow silent flow.
Fond memories keep our loved one
near us,
Tho Heaven claimed her one year
ago.
It's one sad years since mother left
us.
Whom we loved and cherished dear.
Can we help but feel lonely
When her voice we do not hear.
Oft from our hearts comes a bitter
cry,
Why, o God, did mother die?
Then comes a thought so solemn anC
(. deep,
She is not dead but only asleep.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
From her beloved husband and chill
dren-John C. Reusch.
The regular meeting of the Farm
Bureau will be held next Thursda.
night, April 10. Everybody come.
