COMMEND HUGHES LUSITANIA TALK [Continued From First Page] p. m., and a night address at Lincoln completed the day's program. The second day's campaign provides for addresses at Hastings, Grand Is land. Columbus. Freemont and Omaha. Hughes carried his campaign through the manufacturing and zinc mining sections of Missouri yesterday, bas ing his plea for votes largely upon an attack of the Adarason bill and the picture he drew of the conditions which would confront this country af ter the close of the European war un less the Republican policy of protec tion for American industries was put Into effect. He spoke also about the protection of American rights abroad. During the day Mr. Hughes received many messages congratulating him up on his utterances in Louisville, when he declared that, had he been Presi dent, he would have broken off diplo matic relations with Germany when the Lusltanla was sunk. He would not comment upon them. There was much talk about the address also at the etops made, and verbal congratula tions we're added to the messages. The campaign carried Mr. Hughes as far as Joplln, and the principal speech was delivered at Springfield, the State capital. There was a brief address at Monett early last evening, and at sev eral other stations where no stops were made crowds collected to cheer the nominee as his train passed by. Ilornh'a Cousin In Conductor S. H. Borah, a cousin of Senator Borah, was the conductor in charge of the train while it was passing over the Southern Railroad. He went back to Mr. Hughes' car to explain that the delay had .been caused by the break ing dowit of a freight engine and to apologize. They had a long conver sation, during which Mr. Borah told Mr. Hughes that he was a member of the Railroad Men's Republican Club, of Princeton, Indiana. "At first," he said, "many of the fellows felt that they would vote for President Wilson, but since they have come to (understand the Adamson bill they are going to vote for you. As I said, we are with you because we thlnka President Wilson has injured the cause of labor more by his bill than he has helped it." Mr. Hughes was greatly pleased with the reception accorded him at all of the ■tops yesterday. His attacks upon the Adamson bill were well received in the railroad center of Springfield, and he Went into the topic there in consider able detail. Pinchot Denies Wilson Kept U. S. Oat of War; Scores His Continual Sidestepping -.Philadelphia, Oct. 14.—Gifford Pin chot stood before 700 students and townspeople of Swarthmore and Cwarthmore College last night and se verely criticised President Wilson for his "shifting policies," his failure to take the public into his confidence, his "sidestepping of the woman suffrage question by means of clever word Jug glery" and concluded by ridiculing the plea that "he has kept us out of war." Mr. Pinchot began his address by de ploring the "political apathy" of the aliddle West where he said, he was sur- The Inheritance Tax THE new Federal Estate Tax imposes a levy upon the property of every person who dies subsequent to September 8, 1916, .subject to certain exemptions. • We have prepared an exact copy of the text of this Law, which will be mailed to those who request* it. >• Philadelphia Trust Company 415 Chestnut Street :: 1415 Chestnut Stree^ Philadelphia SATURDAY EVENING, prised by the general lagging interest In the Presidential fight. Several times he brought applause from the audi ence, but it became vociferous when he waxed sarcastic over the" plea of the Democrats that the President "has kept us out of war." '•President Untrustworthy" "President Wilson," said Mr. Pinchot, "is wholly untrustworthy for the high est office in the land. His vacillation on all matters of vital interest has been appalling. In his dealing with Ger many, with Mexico and with problems at home he has seldom shown a firm hand. In his foreign policies this in stability is a matter of common knowl edge. It is well known, too,* that he did not know his own mind. - • "He has sidestepped on several issues. Look at his evasion on the question of woman suffrage. If the President stands for a thing to-day, you can lay a bet that he will not stand for that thing six months from now. The most dangerous thing Is that he gets away with it. He has a habit of bolstering up his mistakes by fine phrases. Pinchot pointed to the dire need of better organization by Republicans and a little more "punch" in their cam paign. He warned Republicans pres ent that Wilson was not to be defeated by mere apathy. Hughes in Answer to Query Says He Would Have Broken With Kaiser Louisville, Ky„ Oct. 14. Charles E. Hughes declared in a. speech here Thursday that he would have broken off diplomatic relations with Gormany when the Lusltanla was sunk if he nad been President. He made this declaration In Impas sioned tones In answer to a Demo cratic heckler In the cowd. Here Is a complete transcript of the questions and Mr. Hughes' answer: A voice—"Justice Hughes, just a moment. Please permit a respectful interruption. What would you have done—"( Cries of "Put him out.") "Please permit the question to be asked," said Mr. Hughes. "I do not want any one shut off from a courte ous question. Go on, sir. Please ask your question." (Cries of "Go on, you boob.") A voice—"l ask, I trust respectful ly " (Cries of "Put him out.") "Please let the question be asked!" shouted Mr. Hughes. "I desire this question to be asked. Please ask it." A voice—"l ask you, with all the respect that I know, what you would have done wljen the Lusltanla was sunk? See if you can answer this." "I will answer this now! Permit me to answer it, permit me to answer It!" shouted Mr. Hughes. "Sir, I would have had the State Department at the very beginning of Oie administration so equipped as to command the re spect of the world; second—kindly wait until I got through and do not interrupt with applause until I have answered the gentleman's question. "I kave said that I would have had thfe State Department equipped so as to command the respect of the world at the outset of the administration, and, next, I would have so conducted affairs In Mexlqo as to show that our words meant peace and good will, the protection, at al* eventa, of the lives and property of American citizens; and next —and next—when I said 'strict accountability' every nation would have known that that was meant; and, further, when notice was published with respect to the action (the action threatened), I would have made it ftnown, in terms unequivocal and unmistakable, that we should not tolerate a continuance of friendly re lations through the ordinary diploma tic channels if that action were taken. "And the Lusltanla would never have been sunk." PARKER MAKES SPEECH New York, Oct. 14. With a plea for the re-election of President Wil son, John M.

RECOVER "LOOT" [Continued From First Page] wasn't found safe and secure In the safe of the Harrisburg hospital. This is how It all happened yuh underSTAND-me! On Tuesday afternoon Benjamin W. Campbell, of 324 Chestnut street, fell in a hotel uptown, and fractured his arm. He was taken to*the Har risburg hospital In the police ambu lance, and kept there for treatment. Later in the afternoon, a physician called up the police and asked wheth er the officers had taken Mr. Camp bell's watch, cuff links, money, keys and glasses, to keep while the latter was In the hospital. The police department reported that the articles were not at headquarters 1 yuh-understand-me. The hospital at taches insisted that the jewelry and money were not there and even went through the valuables which are kept in the safe, but failed to find Mr. Campbell's jewelry. Here one of the Sleepy Sleuths started his man hunt. First to the hotel, then to the men last seen with Mr. Campbell, next to the proprietor, and last of all to his fellow officers on the ambulance. For four long days, because the hospital attaches said that the articles were not there, Detective Speese sleuthed, and finally he locked up Solomon Washington, "on suspicion" of stealing the valu ables. This morning one of the ambulance officers insisted that the jewelry had not been taken from the patient's clothes before the latter was admit ted to the hospital. Found! Yuh-Understand-Me! Back to the institution for the sick and injured, hustled Mr. Speese. A thorough search of everything in the safe was begun, and there with the values of the other patients, watch, cuff links, keys, money and glasses were {ound. • Found! Yuh-under stand-me! Several days ago thieves stole some groceries which had just been de livered at the Rodearmel apartments, CO4 A'orth Third street, for Mrs. James G. Ilntz, and for Mrs. Charles E. Pat- I ton, wife of the State Secretary of i Agriculture. The groceries were plac ed on a dumb waiter in the apart ments but no one was there at the time. Later when Mrs. Hatz and Mrs. Patton came for them, the thefts were discovered. The theft wasn't reported to the police. "What's the use?" says the victims of the theft.
