I HAD FAILED TO REGISTER Makes Out Papers and Sends Them Home, But is Notified That He Failed to Have Proper Affidavit, Chicago, Oct. 2S.-President ' Taft who frequently refers to himself as the "Titular head of the Republican party." was in a ' quandary tonight The President does not know Whether he is a qualified voter any . more. He doesn't iknow whether the election au thorities in Cincinnati, his home city, it.tend to let him cast a ballot in the city elections next Tuesday. More than two weeks ago, Mr.. Taft made cut his' registration papers, mailed them from the . Pacific coast and thought, no more about- the matter. A few days later the President was no tified by the Cincinnati election board that he had failed to have the proper affidavit made out to accompany the 1 apers, ' . ; At New Castle, Wyo.r where the guest of Congressman Mondell, the President worked nntil late night mak ing out the new papers and the neces sary affidavit The mails from New Castle that night carried the papers to Ciacinnati.- v.i..j - - v . ' Today Secretary Hilles was notified, evidently on good authority, that the President had -failed to uagister prop erly in time and Mr. Taft took up his day in .Chicago convinced that awhile he might visit" Cincinnati on election day he could not vote. Later in. the, day word came from Cincinnati that the whole matter had been put up- to Secretary '. of State Graves-, of .Ohio,' .and- that it w9 Bot definitely settled. , Tonight Mr; , Tuft is wcderlngy.batffjJlJ)e.Jjthe-o come. He ts .'going to Cincinnati any1 how, but he would like to vote if pos sible. . . " ' President -Taft spent a busy day in Chicago. ' He spoks to the, American Mining Congress in the morning, en dorsing the speech made by Secreta ry, of the Interior Fisher here last night; told the members of the Chica go Bar Association that ho was and expected always to be opposed- to the recall of the judiciary; rode 60 miles by special. train to dedicate the new naval training station at North Chica go and tonight addressed the Chicago Association of Commerce on peace and arbitration. The President came near politics once today. 'That was when he spoke to the Chicago Bar As sociation. Without using his name, Mr. Taft referred to tho remarks of United States Senator Clapp, of Min nesota, in this city recently, in which the President's veto of the Arizona. New Mexico Statehood bill was called "the blackest act of tyrannyver com mitted on a free DeoDle. "I knew I was guilty of a good deal." the President said, "but I nev er knew I was guilty of conduct that could be described by sucn lurid terms. I was determined -that when a new State entered the Union it should start with a knowledge of some things. I was convinced that it should start with a proper appreciation of the independence of tho Judiciary. The people of that State may not be con vinced yet, but at least they know . what I think. Congress has approved my action, for once, and has gone fur ther. It has passed a law directing and this is really mqre like an act of blackest tyranny the people to take back their ideas about the Judiciary: "I am a lawyer and a Judge and if 1 had acted differently from the way 1 did I would have been unworthy of either title." "While the Judges , here dp not measure up to the high standard of tlsewhere," said the President, ''still 5 he record of tho American bench as a whole Is high. What defects there are, are due . not to the Weakness of the judges, but to the' weakness of the ijople. I sometimes think that the socialists and anarchists and the jiiscontented ought to hire a lawyer o pick out flaws in the system to at tack." . vr , At the naval training . station the President watched for half an hour a drill by several hundred student sail ors. The mon who will man , the American battleships later performed i he "setting up" exercise: showed how they wigwag from one ship to another ;i sea and marched in review before the President.

Since then many vacancies have occurred in the sacred college by death and now there are twenty occurred in the sacred col lege by death and now there are twenty-two seats of the total of seventy unfilled. . Since 1907 the intention to hold a Consistory has been announced from time to time but on each occasion, the convocation has been postponed for various causes. - The question of the appointment of another American cardinal has been under discussion a number of times, but on one occasion it was stated that the Pope adhered to his opinion that the . United States should not have more than one cardinal during the life of Cardinal Gibbons.:- The proposed Consistory in Novem ber will be the fifth held by Pope Pius X. On the death Of Leo XIII there were 64 cardinals. During the last eight years Pius X has created W new cardinals, of whom two have died. Thirty of the cardinals who took part in the election of carainai &ario io Pope Pius X also had died.

The report of an imperialist victory in the vicinity of Hankow, which has been received from the Minister of War, Gen. Yin Tchang, revived the drooping spirits of the administration.

The ministers, however, decided to permit the viceroy to do so, owing to the. ser ious conditions prevailing. The min isters decided also to authorize - the consuls at Hankow to deal temporari ly with all questions cropping up, but the seizure of foreign . ships carrying anything which may be called contra band of war, as threatened by the reb el leader, Geh. Li Yuan Heng, cannot be permitted. Regarding the appeal of Shanghai business men through the , consuls that a 30-mlle zone around Shanghai be declared neutral, the ministers de cline to assent on the ground that it was a matter for decision by the pow ers. Panic prevails at Peking. Both Manchu and Chinese families are tak- . . X J MMfnMA immediate disturbances. ' The Chi nese are alarmed owing to a report that . the Manchu garrison intends to tegin a massacre if it meets with re verses, at the hands of the rebels in the South. The Manchus are said also to fear a massacre, on the' part of the Chinese. Both continue to desert the capital.

The present movement constitutes the most momentous political revolu tion in our history," Mr. Williams de clares, 5dnducted without bloodshed and even without acrimonious politi cal contests." The attorney for the States says that political organizations have not been responsive to popular will; se lection of "eood men", to office has failed: 'party platforms are. not regard ed as pledges ; the people' are unable to trust their servants. -, Mr. Williams declares that the ini- ative and referendum does not inter fere with the "republican form of gov ernment" which the Federal constitu tion guarantees to every State. He argues that Oregon has a-republican form of government, whether the peo p3 legislate by direct or indirect me thods. If then it Das not he says, on ly the State and not the citizens can complain.

I.VREE PUHIiED KILLING Of Allan. Thurman Garland So States the Prosecution Which .Closed Direction Evidence On . m Yesterday Oplouses, La., Oct 28. The prose cution closed its direction evidence late this afternoon in the case of Mrs. Zee Runge McRee, charged with the murder of young Allan Thurman Gar land in her home here seven weeks ago. . . ' . r : Court adjourned until Monday morn Ing. ... : ; -,';;.. v L- ..Only .two days jb :, theftrt week . pf me trim wereaevoiea waw raRing of evidence, the first four days being consumed in securing a. jury. It Is ex pected, the trial will last all next week. Counsel for the defendant late this afternoon boldly challenged the pros ecution to attack the character of Mrs. McRee. This announcement by Judge Hunter, of counsel for tne de fense, followed an objection to a lfne of questioning which served to inter rupt the initial effort of the prosecu tion to show undue intimacy between the prisoner and Allan Garland. Mary Boswell, an old negro woman, was on the stand. She was telling of a visit to her place on' the Plaisance road, three miles from the Garland heme, of Mrs. McRee' and the deceas ed. Mrs. McRee, she testified had on a previous visit told her. she would bring a young man with her the next time she came out "Well, what did they do while they were at your place?" "I didn't notice them very much, I was too busy 'tending to my potato vines." '"-..; ' ' At this point counsel Tor the defense objected to the line of questioning on the ground that the testimony was not relevant at this stage of the proceed ings. The witness was excused but probably will be Introduced in rebut tal. ; . Among witnesses introduced " this afternoon were Miss Laura Amy, a neighbor of the McRees', August Amy, a carpenter, and Joseph Stelly. The former said after the three shots were fired in the McRee home, all in. rapid succession, Mrs. McRee came over to her house and asked for a drink of whiskey, saying she felt faint Miss Amy's most important testi mony was in reference to an engage ment made the day previous to the killing by Mrs'. McRee to go to town the following morning with witness and do some shoping. "Mrs. McRee came. over to my house that day (the day of the killing) about 7 o'clock. , She said she was busy and couldn't go to town ahd that I could go with her boy." ; The prosecution will argue that the defendant planned .to' kill Allan Gar land that morning, which,1 accounted for her cancelling the engagement with Mis Amy. ' ; ! Witness said she had seen Allan 'at Mrs. McRee's house one time. JoseDh Stelly and August Amy tes tified that-they saw Allan Garland in the McRee home sitting down , in tne same room with the defendant two days .before the ' milling. Stelly said he had seen .Mrs. McRee and the de ceased together in a wagon , several times. ' ' . ' ' - DIES FROM EFFECTS OFGAME. Women's Ckb of Montana Declare Snort on Plane With Bull Fighting.

THE DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK A Year Hence is a Certainty Party of the 'Real Progressives Issue With Monetary Commis sion. - i ' Dallas, Texas, Oct. 28. Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, to day declared Democratic "success in the elections of next year a certainty, described the party as controlled by the rqal progressives of the country. ana urged that if the Democrats acted wisely a large part of the Progressive Republican vote might be gained. Governor Wilson's political talk was at a luncheon which preceded his ad dress at the Texas State Fair where he was the guest of honor this after noon. Early in the day an hour after his arrival he spoke to several thous and persons at the First Baptist church upon "Life and the Bible." To night he delivered an address at Fort Wcrth and ieturned to Dallas at night. He will leave early tomorrow for New Jersey to take the stump In. the legis lative campaign in progress In that State. , ' Incidental to his. political utterances Governor Wilson discussed currency reform briefly and took issuewith the National Monetary Commission. At the fair grounds Governor Wil son said in part: .... -Governor Wilson said in part: -' I feel very keenly the pleasure and the stimulation of facing this great audience, drawn from so many, parts of this Imperial State. An audience that represents Texas, represents a great deal of what is characteristic of the force and " initiative of modern times. Texas seems, from tho firs V to faav -had. the. capacity. and to rfrave obeyed the impulse of a State able' to care for its own people, and to look forward to the futurejn the regulation of its own affairs.- All the country recognizes It as one of the most pro gressive States of the Union, a State where things move forward from measure to measure without vaccina tion and without fear. It is interesting to note in how. many matters now occupying the foreground of our thought in America Texas has set a notable example. It was in Texas, for example, that the Commis sion Form of Government for cities was originated, a reform which has gone so far already towards redeem ing our cities from their chaos and misgovernment. Texas led the way in railroad reg ulation. Her railway commission was one of the very first that established the method, now accepted everywhere for the determination of the relations between our communities and our public service corporations. Some of the men who were prom inent in these reforms are gone, nota bly Governor Hogg, who so truly won the affection and confidence of . his people; and Senator - Reagan, who played so notable a part upon the National as well as upon the local stage in tho matter of railway regula tion. But Judge Terrell, of Austin, is still among us to receive the tribute of our admiration. . and gratitude. These men were among the notable pioneers of present day economic and political reform, and it is very delightful, standing here, to pay my tribute- of respect and admiration to them. Texas also: undertook, at an un usually early date, the regulation of the issue of stocks and bonds by cor-' rations, particularly by railroad companies, and I understand that the regulations she Initiated have resulted very satisfactorily indeed. The people of -, Texas know, whom to follow and what to do under their leadership Theyhave shown themselves enlightened,.- progressive, confident, capable of achievement It is such things as these that stimulate the imagination in facing a creat cpmpany of her rep resentative .citizens like that gathered here today. . : ' There was a time, but three or four years ago, -When men who stood high in the counsels of. the Nation, openly asked: the question: "What was .to be come of the-powers of the States?" pressing the inquiry, not because they entertained any jealousy of those powers, but! because, apparently, the States were ' not Inclined to exercise them," were lethargic and In different in the presence of conditions .which needed thoughtful ' and eff ectlveN rem edy. But such talk -has ceased, the States have asserted themselves, each State Is attempting a systematic treatment of Its own problems, study ing them from the point-of view of its own people, and adapting the rem edy to the circumstances. Texas led the way in this . renaissance of the functions of the States, 'but all the country is now "quick with the new life and v America ., Is beginning once again to realize the happy circum stance that our, diversified' conditions can be met without any. f utile attempt to apply a too uniform remedy. Our .States are our. testing grounds, and they have full power and - authority to make trial of the remedies' which commend "'themselves ' to them.:. ;In many- things . it Is desirable, nay ; Im perative, .that we , should co-operate ' ; ;; (Continued on ; Plage 2.) .
