THE LiGH FOR ANARCHISTS Sacretary Bonaparte Tell How to Punish the Reds. WOULD MAKE ALL MEN SLAVES Socialists and Anarchists Differ but All Spring from a Com- mon Belief. At the Cumberland, Md., Chautau- qua Secretary of the Navy Charles J. Bonaparte delivered a strong and interesting address on ‘‘Anarchism and Its Cure,” which was listened to and applauded by an audience of 3,000. Mr. Bonaparte took occasion to defend the many measures that have been advocated to stamp out anarchy in the United States and al- so to denounce those who have been attempting to interefere with the freedom of the press on the ground that certain editorial utterances have tended to stir up trouble. He also decried in emphatic terms the at- tempt made by certain interests to class Socialists as Anarchists, al- though he admitted that they both sprung from one common belief, that of common equality. He said: “A Socialist is essentially, though not always avowedly or even consci- ously, one who sees that the equality demanded by his own doctrine can be fully secured only among slaves. “An Anarchist differs from a Soci- alist by demanding that all agents of Governments be entirely abolished. If the Socialist had his way, his boast- ed equality would work chaos and make timid and simple serfs of the strong, brave and wise. The Anarch- ist holds that the man who posses any kind of superiority over another wrongs the other by the mere fact of having it. Therefore comes an- archistic assassinations, they holding it to be a sin against equality for one’ man to be exalted above his fellows. “Legislation cannot eradicate an- archism. We can, however, make the unlawful acts prompted by an- archism crimes where they are not al- ready so and visit upon them such penalties as are particularly distaste- ful to that class of criminals. “On Anarchists the death penalty should be unequivocally imposed by law and inflexibly executed whenever the prisoner has sought directly or indirectly, to take life. For offences of less gravity, I advise a compara- tively brief, but very rigorous im- prisonment, characterized by com- plete seclusion, deprivation of all comfort. and denial of any form of distraction, and which could be, to my mind. advantageously supplanted by a severe but not a public whipping. The lash, of all punishments, most men hold odious and disgraceful, and not merely for reasons of public po- licy.” NO WONDER BANK FAILED President and His Friends Used Funds Playing Ponies. Iu addition to the discovery of a private ledger kept by President Paul 0. Stensland, of the wrecked Milwau- kee Avenue State Bank, of Chicago, | and in which was concealed a record of $191,000 of savings bank deposits, | another sensational book came to light during the examination of Cash- | fer Henry W. Hering. This private | ledger showed Stensland in a new role | —that of sport and racetrack gam- | bler. i The hook showed that the missing president in company with a coterie | of friends, was a heavy plunger on the races. Tt contained memoranda of the campaigns on the turf. One | day Stensland and his companions bet | $75.000 to win $60,000 on a horse | called Gen. Rro~~ The animal won.

Even the military gov-| ernor of Kamerun is said to be in- volved and has been ordered home to defend himself. CROP REPORTS ! znd Corn Both Largely in Ex- ess Over Last Year. The government crop report, is- sued on the 10th, met the most san- | guine expectations. The total winter and spring wheat vield is estimated at 772.0006,000 bushels, which com- pares with an actual yield last year of 692,000,000 bushels. A new record is also indicated for corn, the yield being estimated at 2,713,000,000 bush- els which compares with 2,707,000,000 bushels last year. These figures as- sure a large surplus of both wheat and corn for export, aad inasmuch as | there is no artificial support to the market, prices for tiie old crop have declined to a level that is stimulating foreign demand. { Wheat 0 3 FOUR DROWN TO SAVE ONE Sacrifice Unavailing in a Gay Party | on the River. i Five persons prominent in the SO- | cial life of Davenport, Wash.. who had | been enioying an outing on the banks | of the Spokane river, were drowned.

This information was conveyed to the Persian minister at Washing- ton in a cablegram from the grand vizier and minister for foreign af- fairs, who stated that, in view of the desire of his imperial majesty, the Shah, for the extension of national tranquility an4 for the welfare of Persia and al] its inhabitants and in order to fortify the government it has been decreed necessary to give certain reforms and a constitution durable for the country and for the administration.

Two hundred and thirty-two di- vorce cases have been. disposed of in the District Court in Omaha since the May term of the court opened. In more than one hundred of these cases decrees of divorce were granted. Many of the parties to the proceed- ings live, or recently lived ,outside of Nebraska, coming here for the sole purpose of filing petitions of divorce, because the laws of this State make it very easy for a dissatisfied hus- band or wife to obtain a legal separa- tion. It has come to light that as a di- voce center Omaha is making rapid strides, having long ago distanced Sioux Falls, S. D., which for years was in the lead. GREAT PLOT UNEARTHED. Leaders Arrested Confess to Wide- spread Conspiracy in Finland. A mesage from Copenhagen says: A number of members of the Finnish revolutionary organization were ar- rested, and under pressure confessed the plans of the patriots. They revealed a widespread plot to blow up all of the government build- ings at Helsingfors with dynamite, and to establish a dictatorship over Finland. This being sucessful, it was plan- ned to march to St. Petersburg to aid the opponents of the government there. The government is alarmed, and it is feared that Finland has been elect ed as the starting point for the revo- lution. WHY MANY MEN GO CRAZY. Lose Their Minds in the Effort to Support Women. Interesting figures are obtained in a bulletin issued by the Census Bureau, concerning the number of insane persons in ithe United States. Although not made a part of the official record of speculations in the subject, there is an impression among those who assisted in the compilation of the figures that American males go insane as the result of their strenuous efforts to get the money wherewith to support the female members of their families in com- parative ease, while among the for- eign-born, insanity among the fe- males results from the overwork their lords and masters compel them to do. OIL FOUND IN PERU. Rich Strike is Reported High Above Sea Level. Near the shore of Lake Titicaca, in Peru, the highest navigable body of water in the world, being 13,200 feet above sea level, petroleum in large uantities has been found by the Inca Mining and Rubber Company, was received by Al- bert E.

LINCHER GETS 19 YEARS A North Carolina Jury Quickly Disposes of Man Who Leads Mob. FiRST CASE IN STATE'S HISTORY Leader of the Mob Arrested Tuesday, Indicted Thursday, Convicted and Sentenced Friday. What is said to be the first in- stance of the conviction of a lyncher in the history of the state was fur- nished when George Hal, a white ex- convict of Montgomery county, North Carolina who was one of the party that lynched three negroes in jail at Salisbury for the murder of the Ly- erly family, was found guilty of con- spiracy in connection with that crime and was sentenced to 15 years in the penitentiary. The jury was out but 35 minutes and returned with a verdict of guilty, after several witnesses had been heard. Judge B. F. Long sentenced Hall to the maximum term provided for by law, 15 years at hard labor in the penitentiary. The evidence against Hall was overwhelming. He was remanded to jail. But four days have intervened be- tween the time of the triple lynching and Hall's arrest and conviction. Mon- day night the three negroes were taken from the Salisbury jail, hanged from a tree and their bodies riddled with bullets. Next day, Tuesday, Hall was arrested, Wednesday a special grand jury was summoned and in- dicted him for murder and Friday he was arraigned, found guilty and sen- tence pronounced. The state sprung a surprise in the trial when the offense against the prisoner was changed from murder to conspiracy. PRISONERS BREAK JAIL One Fugitive Charged With Murder and Another Refuses to Leave. Buck Kittlewell, alias Frank How- ell; Jeff. Taylor and Carl Gross, broke out of the county jail at Mor- gantown, W. Va. and escaped into Pennsylvania. Kittlewell was being held on a charge of robbing the Baltimore & Ohio railroad office here and was also wanted in Cleveland, O. Taylor was brought here from the Marion county jail for safe keeping on a charge of murder, while Gross was serving a 30-day sentence for petit larceny. Walter Flum, held on a murder charge, had a chance to escape, but refused to join them. Four . steel bars were pried from the jail win- dows. It is believed they had assist- ance from the outside. THREE NEGRGES LYNCHED Taken from Jail, Hanged to Trees and Shot. A mob of 3,000 determined men forcibly entered Rowan county jail at Salisbury, N. C., removed therefrom three of the five negroes charged with the murder of the Lyerly family at Barber Junction, July 13, and lynched them. Nease and John Gillespie and Jack Dillingham, supposed to be the prin- cipals in that crime, were the victims cf mob vengeance. The remaining negroes, Henry Lee, George Erian and Bella Dillingham, were -not molested, and later officers hurried them off to Greensboro. Against Negro Supremacy.

Hering declared he did no know that he hod had no communication with Stensland for more than a week. Hering strenuously denied any re- sponsibility for the failure of the bank. Hering maintained that if he was guilty of breaking the banking laws of Ilinois, President Stensland was responsible. Hering declared he never had benefited a single dollar by Presi- dent Stensland’s system of banking. It was announced at the Treasury Department that the department would at once resume the purchase of silver bullion for the subsidiary coin- age. 1,500,000-Pound Wool Clip. The largest individual wool ever grown in America has shipped from Billings, Mont., to Bos- ton. The clip weighed 1,500,000 pounds, and 4 cars were required to carry it.

By a vote of 12 to 4 the Pennsyl- vania state executive committee of the Prohibition party met in Harrisburg for the second time rejected Lewis Emery, Jr., as a candidate for gover- nor. ’ Vacancies on the state ticket were filled by the nomination of the follow- ing straight Prohibitionists: For Governor-—Homer L. Castle of Pittsburgh. For Lieutenant Patton of Lancaster. For Secretary of Internal Affairs— George Hoffman of Montgomery coun- Governor—H. D. y. With regard to Emery the commit- tee took the position that he did not adequately represent those for which the Prohibition party stands and for which it freely and gladly sup- ported William H. Berry, Democrat, for State Treasurer last November. The meeting was an adjourned ses- sion from the Pittsburgh session of three weeks ago, when Emery’s name was first presented as a substitute for William H. Berry, who had declined the nomination for governor as tend- ered by the state convention. The vote then was a tie. Since then the sentiment has developed strongly against Emery, and only four com- mitteemen remained convinced he should be nominated even as a matte: of expediency. CLAIMED MONEY WAS ALL GONE Entire Sum Alleged to Have Been Stolen Lost in Stock Speculation, He Says. Clinton B. Wray, charged with stealing $125,000 from the Union Trust Company of Pittsburgh, while employed there as a teller, was ar- rested in Toronto, Canada. With him at the time was Grace Loughrey, member of a well-known family, of Kittanning, Pa., with whom he be- came acquainted two years ago by talking to her over the telephone while she was working as a central operator at Kittanning. It was through Miss I.oughrey that Wray was traced by Perkins detec- tives after he left Pittsburgh about three weeks ago. He will be brought back and committed to jail, where Clifford S. Hixon, the individual book- keeper of the trust company, who con- fessed that he and Wray stole $125,- 000, is confined in default of $20,000 bail. Although the speculations of the two trusted employes extended over a period of three years, they were not suspected until about three weeks ago, a few days after both went on their vacations. Hixson was arrested last week and, after being ‘‘sweated” for about 24 hours. broke down and confessed. Wray then said, in answer to ques- tions, that he had lost all on stock gambling. Bank Teller Commits Suicide. Frank Kowalski, for five years pay- ing teller of the Milwaukee Avenue State bank, which failed shot and killed himself in his home, 340 North Carpenter street, Chicago. Criticism by neighbors and friends who accus- ed him of a share in the downfall of the bank, is believed to have driven Kowalski to suicide. Theodore Stensland, vice president of the Milwaukee Avenue State Bank, was arrested on a charge of violating the banking laws of the state. Earlier in the day the institution was placed in the hands of receiver and Paul O. tensland, president of the bank and father of the cive president, together with Cashier Hering, were officially declared fugitives from justice. This action was taken by the au- thorities after developments and showed the finances of the failed in tion and had been for a number of vears. Besides the discovery of many irregularities in the management of the bank, it was also found that even the safety deposit boxes owned and rented by the bank had been tamper- ed with and rifled. According to a census just taken by the Health Department of the Isth- zone is 22,137. LIVES LOST IN FLOOD Train Carrying Prospectors Isolated at Small Station—Bridges Down and Tracks Washed Away.

A report of the killing of five Jap- anese fishermen and the capture of 12 Japanese prisoners on Attu Island, the western-most of the Aleutian | group, the prisoners having been tak- en by the revenue cutter McCulloch, commanded by Captain J. C. Cantwell, was made to the Department of Com- merce and Labor at Washington, D. C., by Edwin W. Sims, solicitor for the department, who is in Alaska to enforce the new: law prohibiting all persons not ctitizens of the United States from fishing in Alaskan waters. The Japanese killed were shot by Americans on Attu Island before the ‘McCulloch arrived. Because of the encroachment of Japanese fishermen and sealers in Alaskan waters Congress was obliged, during the session just ended, to en- act two laws calculated to encourage the fishing industry of Alaska among Americans, and to ‘prohibit Japanese and other aliens from engaging in it. The cable dispatch from Mr. Sims does not make entirely clear the character of the offense of which the Japanese were guilty, but it does show that the officers and crew of the Mc- Culloch were in no way responsible for the killing, and that those who were captured were trespassers on American territory. There is no reason to expect in- ternational complications, but there is no question that the situation in the Aleutian island is a delicate one; and that numerous difficulties are almost certain to be encountered in enforc- ing the laws protecting American citizens and their rights. PROSPERITY IN IRON TRADE Big Increase in Pig Fails to Keep Pace With the Heavy Demand. The “Iron Trade Review,” says: ‘““All indications point to great prosperity during the remaining months of the present year, and at least the early months of 1907. “Seven new blast furnaces, having an annual capacity of 880,000 tons, have been blown in this year, and others will be in operation at not far distant dates, but if the present de- mand continues, it is doubtful whether even this added capacity will be sufficient. “Prices are advancing more rapid- ly toward those of the boom period of 1902 than conservative interests like to see, and in this tendency lies the only danger which now threatens famine is threatened. immense purchases of equipment dur- ing’ the past 12 months, the railroads will not be in much better condition than they were last year to handle the crops, which will be very large.

The indictment contains 19 counts, each count constituting an offense. The violations of the law cover a per- iod from August, 1903, to February, 1905. The indictment, which Is aimed at the corporation, is silent on both officials of the oil company and the railroads. The indictment is drawn under the Elkins law. The punishment is a fine of $1,000 to $20,000 for each offense, and the maximum in the 19 offenses is $380,000. The total amount of re- bates in monthly instalments is $8,- 501.72.
