BRYAN IMPROVES
HIS GRAMMAR
The Chicago Oration Is Dressed Up to
Leok Well In Print
SMOOTHED INTO A MASTERPIECE
The Original Text Has Been Sub
jected to 114 ChangesSeveral Mis
statements Corrected and New
Germs of Thought Have Been
Added.
Washington, Aujr. . The first In
stallment of the revised edition of Mr.
Bryan's Chicago Hpeech was received
at Democratic headquarters to-day and
will soon be circulated, as there Is nn
enormous demand for the document.
As Indicated in these dispatches in an
interview with Senator Faulkner, the
changes have been lmmateriid and do
not In any way Interfere with the orig
inal text or change the sentiment. It
bears evidences of having been careful
ly gone over by Its author, for the al
terations In grammatical construction
and verbiage number 118. The work:
of revision, while quite elaborate, has
been chiefly confined to the insertion
or elimination of words and the trans
position of words and phrases. The
grammar ha been vastly improved
and the whole speech smoothed over
Into a more perfect mnstwpiece.
Chief among the corrections made Is
a reduction from thirty 'to twenty
years as the period lixing the time
during which the Republicans have
tried to secure an international agree
ment. An entire new sentence appears
at the conclusion of the paragraph in
which Mr. Bryan defies the finding of
a record in history whore the common
people of any land have declared in
favor of the gold standard, this new
sentence reading as follows:
"They can find where the holders of
fixed Investments have declared for a
gold standard, but not where the masses
have."
PLAOARISM CHAIIOE REMOVED.
The extracts from the speech of Sec
retary Carlisle are quoted as Is uImo the
closing reference to the crown of thorns
and the cross of gold, thus removing
the charge of plagarlxm. tluit has been
made In some quarters. The entire
peeoh has been re paragraphed and
much attention given to the punctua
tion. "The speech will be found," said Sen
ator Faulkner, "to contain only such
corrections as are needed to correct the
errors that might naturally be found in
a speech that had been taken down by
a stenographer. There Is an enormous
demand for the document, and we will
endeavor to satisfy the people and give
It the widest possible circulation.

Two Italian Applicant.
Washington, Aug. 6. In refusing to
grant naturalisation papers to two
young Italians today. Judge Cole of the
district supreme court held that no one
who is in Ignorance of the constitution

entitled to become admitted to citizen
ship. The young men explained that
they had come to this country before
reaching their majority, and that they
had ever since resided here, but when
questioned by the Judge they confessed
that they did not understand the con
stitution, and were even doubtful as to
the form of this government.
Judge Cole thereupon decided them to
be Ineligible to cltisenship and refused

SOME BIG GUNS FOR
COAST DEFENSES
Secretary Lamont Awards Contract! for
Naval and Other Supplies.
COMPANIES RECEIVING CONTRACTS
Bethlehem Iron Company and Mid
vale Steel Company Among the Sue
ccssful IliddcrsA Large Part of
the Material Must Be Delivered in
One Year and All Within Two
Years.
Washington, Aug. 6. Secretary La
mont has today directed the award of
contracts under the proposals received
by the war department for the supply
of forcings, gun and mortar carriages,
etc., provided for by the recent applica
tion for the filament of the fortifica
tions. The award of 21 sets of 10,4 Inch
steel gun forging and for one set of
forgings for a type 16-inch gun was
made to the Bethlehem Iron company of
Pennsylvania, the Mldvale Steel com
pany receiving the award for SI sets
of 12-inch forgings. The same two com
panies receive contracts for respective
ly 22 and 14 sets of steel forgings for
the 12-inch breech loading mortars.
For finishing and assembling 20 sets of
these forgings, a contract Is awarded
the Guilders Iron Foundry, of Provi
dence, R. I., the remaining 14 sets
going to the government gun factory at
Watet vllet. In addition a contract for
30 finished mortars is awarded to the
Bethlehem Iron company. Thus it ap
pears that instead of sixty mortars, the
comparatively low prices asked enable
the war department to procure 66, all
of which will be ready for use in the
coast defences within two years.
GUN CARRIAGE CONTRACTS.
The ten Inch disappearing gun car
riages are distributed as follows: Ten
to the Southwark Foundry and Machine
company, to be delivered In nineteen
months; eight to the Niles Tool Works
company, to be delivered in sixteen
months, and twelve to the Bethlehem
Iron company, to be delivered In fifteen
mouths. The favorable bids received
for the 12-inch mortar carriages enable
the department to procure 07 of the car
riages or 11 more than it was supposed
the application would provide. Of this
number f7 are awarded to Robert Poole
& Pons' company, of Baltimore, the last
one to be delivered within sixteen and
a half months, while tern go to the
Southwark Foundry and Machine com
pany, the last one to be delivered with
in eighteen months. To the Midvale
Steel company is awarded a contract
for nearly 2,000 armor piercing shot and
deck-piercing and torpedo shell. An
unusually large number of proposals
were made to the department under the
recent advertisements, and as a rule
the terms were more favorable than In
previous years. The bids placed were
those which combine the lowest prices
with the most rapid rates of delivery.
The department thus procures, over
and above those that it had estimated
for, forgings for three ten-Inch guns
and for three twelve-inch guns, six
mortars and eleven mortar carriages.
A large part of this material will be de
livered within one year from the dates
of the contracts, and all of It In less
than two years.

hibit of Mild HeafttH.
Chllllcothe, O., Aug. 6. A lion be
longing to the Hagenbeck animal show
terribly mangled and killed the two-year-old
child of the trainer, Edward
Hurd, to-day. The fierce beast was
chained outside a tent near the stand
used by Hurd In attracting the atten
tion of visitors, and the child was near
the lion with an attendant. A woman
In the crowd drew the mother's atten
tion to the fact that the child was with
in reach of the lion, and the response
was. "Oh, that lion won't hurt any
one." Less than five minutes afterward
the beast sprang t the child, and seiz
ing Its head In his mouth, crushed the
skull with his maslve Jaws. The father
sprang upon the Hon and forced his
Jaws on, releasing the child, which
gnve some signs of life, but soon died.
This is the Hon that has been used In
the performance .where a woman puts
her head between his Jaws. That act
was to-night taken off the bill.

BLOODY BODY IN THE BUSHES.
A Mysterious Crime Which Panics
the Norrislown Authorities.
Norrlstown, Pa. Aug. 6. A mystery
of the strangest kind Is perplexing the
local officials, and from present indi
cations It will remain unsolved forever,
as all efforts to unfathom it have proved
fruitless. While two women were pick
ing blac kberries on Crooked Lane, about
three miles from this town, they came
Upon a young man, apparently dead,
with, head battered and scalp torn from
the bone to the top of the head, lying
In the bushes.
As the women were gazing on the re
mains a team approached containing
two men, who stopped, placed the body
In the wagon and drove rapidly away.
The women could not catch the men's
conversation. The course of the men
waa In the direction of King of Prussia.
Their actions, the women say .were very
mysterious. The women hurried to
Bridgeport and notified several people.
Upon Investigation of 'the soot where
the man waa reported to have been ly
ing, large clots of blood were found up
on the ground and the leaves of the
trees. The bushes were broken down,
as if a struggle had taken place. -
Consequently there can be no doubt
that If the man the women saw was not
dead, he was at least badly Injured.
There Is, however, a Arm belief that the
man was dead and It is supposed that
the men who carried him away were his
murderers. Magistrate C. D. Hess has
the facts of the case and is doing all he
can to unravel the mystery.
NO LONGER CREEK CITIZENS.
Nearly Two Thousand Negroes Dis
franchised in Okmulga.
Terry, O. T., Aug. 6. The final de
cree has been promulgated from Ok
mulga, the capitol of the Creek na
tion, as it has been handed down by
Judge Adams, chief Justice of the su
preme court of the nation, in the citi
zenship case. It strikes from the rolls
of citizenship of the nation the names
of over 1.700 negroes. The decision
held that the action of the Indian coun
cil, after the passage of the emancipa
tion act by the United States, In admit
ting the negroes to tribal relations was
unconstitutional and therefore at this
time Invalid. Since the passage of the
act these negroes hove drawn in an
nuities $1,000,000 from the Creek govern
ment, have held positions of official
trust and have Improved their farms
and educated their children at the na
tion's expense for twenty years.
From the decision of the court, thera
Is no appeal. The interior department
has held to the same opinion In a sim
ilar case. The Dawes commission,
which has been appealed to by the de
posed negroes, claims it has no right
to interfere with the decision of the
Indian court.
