Washington, June 21. — President
Roosevelt told callers at the white
house yesterday that In his opinion
William J. Bryan would be the Dem
ocratic nominee for president In 1908,
and that the only man the Republi
cans can put up against him success
fully la William H. Taft, the present
secretary of war.
The president, It Is known, has defi
nitely broached the matter of Taft as
presidential timber to Senator Dick, of
Ohio. Senator Dick, be It said, haa not
encouraged the president's advances.
The new tack of the president has
stirred up Intense Interest In Wash
ington. It had been expected that Mr.
Taft would go on the supreme bench
In the fall, when Justice Brown will
retire, though this shift has never been
more than tentatively decided upon.
The president's coutse can mean dnly
that he now desires to show Mr. Taft
the possibility of his elevation to the
presidency and to keep him In the cab
inet and in the arena of active poli
tics.
In mentioning Taft as the man to
beat Bryan, the president strikes a
hard blow at Fairbanks, Shaw and
Root, all of whom are prominently
mentioned as candidates.

. ed because their demand for an In
creased wage scale waa not granted,
some forty Italians, after a free for all
light with an equal number who re,
fused to strike, took refuge on the top
of Reed's gap and rolled huge boulders
down the mountain side. Several
wooden buildings used by the quarry'
men for ntorlng tools and machinery
were completely demolished and two
houses were smashed.
one boulder weighing over a ton
crashed down the htll for a distance of
half a mile, knocking down trees in Its
path and Anally crashing Into a large
hullding used as a boarding house. Sev
eral workmen were bsdly hurt by the
wreckage. One whose nsme Is not
known wss taken to the Meriden Hos
pital, where he Is dying.
Chief of Police George White was
notified and he called nut the reserve
officers, numbering 15 men In all.
Armed with rlAes they attempted to
storm the Italians, but tbs hill Is very
sleep and the path narrow. A shower
<t boulders and smaller stones met
i heir advance and they were repulsed
several time*. Some of the officers
w ere Slightly Injured. They fired Into
'he Italians but the strikers were safely
ambushed and so It Is not thought any
were Injured. The men are not thought
m be armed as they have not fired upon
i he posse. A cltlsens posse will be
formed and another attempt made to
capture the strikers today.

BURLINGTON RY,
Instead of 825,000 the national guard
of Georgia will receive 850,000 when
President Roosevelt affixes his signa
ture to the bill which has passed both
legislative branches of the congress.
When the militia bill reached the
house from the senate Representative
Morrell, of Pennsylvania succeeded In
securing an Increase from one to two
million dollars in the appropriation.
This simply means that the national
guard of every state will have Us gov
ernment appropriation doubled. In the
case of Georgia It means 825,000 more
for the volunteer hoys.
Ths bill very materially enlarges the
scope for which the government ap
propriation fhay be used. Under the
present law the use of federal funds
for the promotion of rllte practice or
the acqulsUlon. construction or main
tenance of shooting galleries and suit
able rifle ranges la not allowed. The
Morrell bill permits this.
The national guard of the country
now numbers about 122,000 men. With
the 82,000..000 available, this will gIVD
about lit tor each man. The slatifi
themselves supplement the government

Two Freight Brokers
Fined and Go to
Jail.
By Private Leased .Wire.
Kknsos .City, Mo., June 22.—Judge
McPherson In the Federal court this
morning lined the Burlington railroad
nnd the Armour, Swift, Morris and
Cudahy Packing Companies 818,000
each for conspiracy to give and receive
rebates. They were convicted two
weeks ago.
George L. Thomas, a freight broker
of New York, was lined 88,000 and
sentenced to four months In Jail, and
B. Taggart was lined 84,000 and
sentenced to three months In Jail. Ap
peals were asked In each case.
In passing sentence upon the con
victed persons end corporations Judge
McPhyrson said ha wished to correct
the Impression that these were rebate
cases. He said. Instead, they were
cases of unlawful concessions.
The charge was that the Burlington
rood and the convicted packers en
tered Into an agreement by which the
peckers were to route export ship
ments over the Burlington rood at a
tariff of 23 cents, 12 centa leaa than
the established rate.
"The excuse or pretext, or device for
that, waa a contract In form, but utter
ly Invalid after August 8, 1*08," said
the court. “The shippers and the rail
way nre In this together. They have
been convicted on evidence differing

Trondhjem, Norway, June 2).—In
this, the ancient viking capital, >.thou
sands of Norwegians, representing the
flower of the re-born nation, today
hailed with a great burst of patriotism
their new ruler, the viking's successor,
King llaskon VII, crowned before their
eyes In the simple but deeply Impress
ive ceremonial devised 400 years ago
by the ancient Norse sovereigns.
Besides the new crowned king, with
his bride, crowned In her turn. Queen
Maud. Affection mingled with the pa
triotic sentiment that stirred the thou
sands for the coronation, but underly
ing the general feeling there was clear
ly shown a Spirit, almost fierce, of na
tionalism.
.“All For Norway.”
“AU for Norway," the national motto
has It, that has never been equaled
since the days of Norway's independ
ence and power.
The coronation ceremony took place
In Trondhjem cathedral, not yet com
pleted, but so covered with decoration
for the occasion that its defects were
not noticeable.
The klpg nnd queen sat In ancient
chairs, under canoplee of red nnd gold,
rapped by crowns embroidered with the
Initials of Ilnnkon and his wife, the
whole placed between the two tran
sits under the dome of the structure.
The royal procession from the palace
to the cathedral was truly a triumphal
procession. The populace, augmented
many fold by the vlaltora, never seemed
tn end their shoutings. In the cathe
dral It Wss ths same, although mare
dignified.
A battery of artillery boomed out Its
royal salvos when the coronation worn
completed. The coronation music fol
lowed, consisting of a specially com-
post ,1 rnniiitn. In four parts, the work
of Conductor Hslvsrssn, of the nullofhl
theater of Christiana, nnd aung with
chorus of 220 voices.
Not a Single Soldier.
Through streets lined with crowds of
peasants In national costume, tourists
and civilians by the thousand, but not
single soldier. King Haakon nnd
Queen Maud drove from the atlfta-
gaard to the old cathedral. The royal
party was accompanied by the mem
bers of ths cabinet, representative of
all tha royal families of Europe and
ths members of the corps diplomatique.
They started a little after 11 o'clock
and so slow was thalr progress through
the crowded street that although the
distance Is less than a mils. It took
them nearly an hour. Had an anar
chist wanted to, he could ealsly have
killed the king, for no attempt waa
made to keep the crowds back, and
both the king and queen shook hands
with every one within reach.
Before the ceremonies attending the
coronation King Haakon received the
American special embassy to corona
tion. William Jennings Bryan accom-
panlsd Charles H. Graves, American
minister to Sweden, who heads ths
embassy. Attended by Norwegian of
ficials, the two Americana, with Major
William W. Gibson, military attache
at St. Petersburg, and. Lieutenant
Commander John H. Gibbons, naval
attache at London, drove to the palace.
The king also received the Dutch,'
French, Italian and Austrian special
envoys.
Since the days of Harold Haarfaager,
Haakon ths Good and Eric Bloodax, all
Norwegian kings, havs been crowned
at Tronhjem. Olaf Tryggevesson, the
great king, made It practically the
capital of Scandinavia.

New York, June 22.—Find that
"Devil Lawyer” whom Mrs. Klnan,
with her last breath, denounced os her
slayer.
This Is the substance of an order
which has galvanised the efforts of
the sixteen detectives at work on the
Bronx mansion murder mystery Into
fresh activity,
"If you cannot arrest the lawyer,
disprove Mrs. Shlppo's story," Is the
alternative command.
The police today are bending their
every energy to the task of establish
Ing the truth or falsity of the sworn
statement mads by Mrs. Stanton's
tenant.
Mrs. Bhlppo stands unwaveringly by
her declaration. During three hours
Coroner McDonald and the deputy
sheriff and Police Captain Prince and
all the formidable battery of Investi
gators who were present at the pre
liminary Inquest tried vainly to trip
her In self cunt rad lctlou.^^^^^^^1
Her persistence made the case more
pussling than before. High police of
ficials declared frankly that they did
not believe her. Yet, on the strength
of a charge which named no attorney
epeclAcally, they placed Lawyer Bur.
ton W. Olbson under surveillance. He
was notified, ejso, to appear today and
tell all concerning his past relations
with Mrs. Stenton and Mrs. Klnan.

Hf. Petersburg, June 22.—Tin
which has been the bulwark
autocracy, Is all that elands
way of the reactionaries taking
ance on tho doumn.
In Its lmlcpcn'lcnco and free,
any bitter, criticism of the government,
the Konshin parliament bears n most
ominous resemblance to the slates gen
era), which was tic i„- K timing of the .
end of French numeracy. The reaction
aries under Trepotr realize fully ihat
unless the doumn Is crushed their pow
er Is dimmed. If the army was loyal
aa It had been up to the tlmo of the
Tspaneae wnr, tho leaders of tho douma
would already ho on thrlr way to Hl-
berla or dead and tho body of the dele
gates would ho sent home, marked men.
The army, however. Is honeycombed
with revolutionary sentiment and Is ils
likely lo side with the new power ns
with tho old—more likely. In fact.

The mutlneera there did not surrender
until everything they demanded had

would have spread lo other regiments.

At Ryaxau, the Bolschofr regiment Is
in open mutiny and has killed some of
[its officers.
■ Despite the denial, there waa trouble
Wednesday with the troops at Cron-
Htndt. I am assured that there was
very serious mutiny, which Mas ended
by tho promlso of radical reforms.
These are a few of tho many In
stances. The revolutionary pnrty
spread throughout the army, anil the
fact that without hardly tin exception,
[the government grants the demands
of the men has very largely destroyed
discipline In the army.
The radleals are bending their ener
gies very largely to making converts
In the army and there Is reason to be
