DETECTIVE BURNS ILL
Suffering From Ptomaine Poisoning
It Is Said Some "Suspect Plot
Chicago, Aug. 22. William
Burns, the detective, is' sick at a local
hotel, suffering, it is said, from pto
maine poisoning. No one is allowed
to see him. except his physicians and
nurse.
A report gained circulation here that
Burns had been the victim of a poison
riot, but little credence is placed in
the rumor.
Even a tax collector would be ready
to start a revolution if any of it were
happening to him.

DEMOCRACY HOST BE r3
: A WORTHY MSB
People Trust '-It, SajvWoMro
Wilson, and It Must &
Male Good. '
Se Girt, N. J. Woodrow Wilson at
the "Little White House" at Sea Girt
is daily called upon to demonstrate bis
ability as a ready speaker.
There is not a day passes but what
he meets various delegations who oaH
to assure him of their support.
In speaking of political machines to
the Brooklyn Democratic Club Gover
nor Wilson said: "Machines are ba4,
but an organization may be very es
sential. For instance, I have been
surrounded by an organization here. In
New Jersey while doing my best work.
A machine uses its political opportu
nities for the selfish ends of its mem
'her. No members of our organization
would ever think ol doing that. Pub
flic opinion in New -jersey has drawn
the distinction. It has killed the ma
chines, and it is going to keep the or
ganixatlon going.
It seems to me that we are stand
, Ing in the presence of something high
er than allegiance to the Democratic
'party. The country has been, disap
pointed in the Republican party, and it
Is turning to the Democratic party.
That party is willing to show the way
toward those things which must be
realized.
"Some gentlemen seem to find it
easy to make personalities out of poli
tics, but it seems to me that whenever
that is done politics is debased.
I "Men who are In search of reform
jare now resorting to the Democratic
; party,, because,-or-my. own part, I do
(not know where; else they will turn to
expect the results. There is no dis
counting the strength and serviceabil
ity of a united party, and the splendid
part is that the Democratic party is
united.
"Speaking seriously, nothing affords
me more genuine pleasure than to re
ceive such greetings from men in Jer
sey who have at least tested my quali
ties. Because you have known me
at close range and if you will bs kind
enough to vouch for me perhaps the
rest of the country will be crednlous
of your report.
"I have spent a great deal of time
since I became governor of New Jer
sey defending your character. It was
supposed in the old days, when th
board of guardians was in charge ot
the state, that you were all of you
disposed to give the most monopolistic
trusts of the country a great ringing
welcome in New Jersey.
"New Jersey was known as the
mother of trusts a very troublesome;
and questionable family and I had to
spend my time outside New Jersey as
suring the people of the Union that It
had not been the fault or the disposi
tion of the people of New Jersey that
there were certain gentlemen who had
undertaken to carry the Republican
party in their pockets and to adminis
ter independently of the rank and file
of Republicans in the- state.
"New Jersey is progressive, but the
United States is progressive, and we
have here merely a delightful sample
of the people of the United States.
"Now, these.people are-not bent on
destroying anything but tbeare'bent
on setting everything In. order; they
are bent upon justice; they are bent
upon seeing to It that the people in
general are partners of the govern
ment, as I wasf trying, to show the
other day. And the Democratic parCy
is now -placed under a peculiar respon
sibility. It has to prove that it Is
the worthy instrument of that zeal m
the part of the people of the United
States. If it does not prove it now It
will never be given another chance to
prove it. No. party that proves , un
faithful to that, ldeai will ever again
be trusted by the people of America.
And therefore we1 are standing at a.
turning point in. our political. Wr must
make good or go out of business. Ia
the vernacular; It is cae of-put"p
or shut up, because w.ordsj re going
to "be di scounted. , Nothing will. "be hon
ored except the actual- carrying out of
such programs as sensible men may"
nlte in for. the common, benefit:

MARITIME RATE WAR.
Suez Canal Reduces Rates on Account
of Panama Free Tolls.
Washington. Aug. 22. A rate war
which might involve all the maritime
nations cf the world and which would
revolve about the Suez and Panama
canals, was precficted today in Wash
ington by officials who have watch
ed the development of world interest
in the Panama Canal bill now await-
ng the approval of President Taft.
According to the report that reached
the State Department today, the direc
torate of the Suez canal has decided
to reduce rates through that canal.
In official circles this notice was
regarded as the first retaliatory step
against the free tolls provision for
American ships through the Panama
canal. The announcement of the
proposed reductions through Suez ap:
peared in inconspicious notices in
American newspapers. The notice
which aroused so much interest was
to the effect that after the first of
next year the transit dues in the Suez
Canal will be reduced 50 centimes,
bringing the toll for loaded ships down
to 6:25 francs. This is the precise
equivalent to the $1.25 maximum tolls
which the Panama Canal act pres
crlbes for vessels passing through that
waterway.
Professor Emory R. Johnson, whose
exhaustive investigation of the finan
clal aspect of the Panama Canal, as a
special commissioner for the War De
partment formed the basis for the ac
tion of the Congressional committees
in fixing the toll rates on the canal,
held that if the Panama project was
to be a success financially and com
mercially its toll- should be lower than
these of the Suez canal. This was
on the basts that the Manama route
would secure at least a minor share
of the shipping moving between Eu
rope and the Pacific coast ports or
Asia. Even lower tolls at Panama, he
held, would not draw away from the
Suez canal a large part of the oriental
trade, because of traffic opportunities,
th nrioe of coal and other supplies
which have a determining effect upon
the selection of routes.
Pittsburg, August 23. New York
today took both games of a double
header from Pittsburg by scores of 2
to 1 and 3 to 2. Both games were
close and exciting. The first went 10
innings. Cole relieved Robinson in
the10th, and Crandall was put in the
box in the sixth by New York in the
place of Ames: wno was hit for a
single and a double in that inning.
In the second game O'Toole and
Tesreau were opposing pitchers and
both did fine work. O'Toole was re
lieved by Cole after the seventh in
ning. In the same inning the locals
had men on third and second and Hy
att was sent in to bat in place of
O'Toole. Pittsburg tied the score in
the fourth inning. Byrne went to fir3t
on balls, Carey sacrificed and Byrne
scored on a, wild pitch. The New
York team won in the eighth', Tesreau
scoring the winning run. He went to
first on balls, to second on a sacrifice I
by Snodgrass, and home on a two-
hagger by Becker.

It will be remembered that the two

Since that time Delgado has been an

their team and they claim to have in
creased its strength greatly.
