likely to be a more elastic plan of re-

renewed with energy yesterday by the

far has rested the burden of the state

peared before large audiences.
The Independence League held a~ meet-
ing at Madison Square Garden, where all
who could get inside heard W. R. Hearst,
the league’s candidate for governor, and
other candidates for the league and Demo-
cratic ticket. A Tammany hall committee
which planned to tour the city in auto-
mobiles, holding many outdoor meetings,

den.

left for Kingston, where he spoke last
night. Mr. Hughes will be away ten days.

and urges party leaders and workers not
to belittle the strength of the opposition.
Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany
Hall, again declared Tammany’s allegience
to the Independence League as represented
in the Democratic state ticket' and pre-
dicted the election of Mr. Hearst.

tion 10 Is Unlawful.
By Associated Press.
Louisville, Ky., Oct. 23.—In the United
States district court today Judge Walter
Evans, in the case of the United States
vs. J. M. Scott, a train dispatcher for
the Louisville & Nashville railroad, on
trial for alleged violation of the Hard-
man act. which seeks to prevent inter-
state carriers from keeping members of
labor unions from obtaining employment,
held that section 10 of the act was void
because it was not the regulation of
merce within the meaning of the
merce clause of the constitution,
therefore beyond the power of congress to
enact. The court sustained the demurrer
to the indictment again Scott and dis-
charged him from custody. The suit was
brought in the lower court on the in-
structions from the attorney- general of
the United States and appeal was taken.

ploye of the Louisville & Nashville rail-
road and the Railroad Telegraphers’
Union took the matter to the courts.

ing employes without cause will be abro-
gated.

tinues throughout eastern Colorado, south-

Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 23.—William
Jennings Bryan left here early today for
a speaking tour through Central and
Northern Indiana. He is scheduled to
speak in nine cities today, to close with a
night meeting at the Indianapolis base-
ball park. Mr. Bryan today traveled in
a special electric car over the traction
lines.
Mr. Bryan made a special stop at Ko-
komo, Ind., and spoke to employes of the
steel mill at the request of its owners,
who are paying heavy duty on steel
billets.
Mr. Bryan said:
“You have here a steel mill that you.
ought to be proud of. You think you
can possibly compete with the steel trust.
You may for a while,.but the only way
you can do it successfully is by making
it possible for the Democratic party to
make it impossible for private monopolies
to exist in the United States.’’

cold have extended over nearly the entire
country between the, 'Rocky Mountains
and the Missouri river, causing heavy
losses of livestock and late fruit. Tele-

The storm is almost unprecedented for
severity at this seaspn of the year and

on the plains has fluctuated from 20 to
