PRICE THREE CENTS STANDPATTERS Aj&T IN PANIC Republican Congressmen Are Much Discouraged over Their Outlook in the No vember Elections. WILL TRY TO MAKE CAMPAIGN PERSONAL And Claim Title to Support Without Reference to the National Adminis tration's Fate. I Gazette-News Bureau, Wyatt Building, Washington, Aug. 22. There is a well-developed panic mixing the standpat republican con gressmen. They are much discour aged over the outlook for the repub llcan party in November, and a goodly number of them have refused to run for re-election with the Taft crowd Among those who have refused to-run lire liwrence of Massachusetts, glemp of Virginia, Dwight of New York, tin republican whip and a man of power under the Cannon rule of the house Nye of Minnesota and Kendall of Iowa, who resigned his nomination after securing It by a good majority Wllh something like half the old time members of the republican side of the house the question .of standing for re-nomlnation and re-election is described as a toss-up. They see noth in;; ahead hut a desperate fight against (lit activities of the progressive and democratic candidates, with prospect of being hopelessly defeated, even In districts thnt have been wont to re turn big republican majorities. About half the progressives are In (he same pusitkm. They must declare for either Taft or Roosevelt, and whichever way tliev jump the other side will nomi nate against them. Itoosevcltlail Scores. The llrst congressional poll that has been taken resulted In a sweeping vi tory for a Roosevelt progressive, lie is James Wl'ekersham, delegate from Alaska. Wlckersham was one of the first members of the house to come out squarely for the new party. He wired his people at home strongly ad vising them to send a strong delega tlon to the progressive national con vention and to cut loose entirely from the old republican party. Wllh few exaeptions, republicans running for re-election will try to make their campaigns personal, to get before their constituents an appeal for support on the ground that they per sonally deserve It, without reference to party divisions and factions. President Taft will be forgotten Taft's name will be mentioned so sel dom on the Stump by congressional candidates of his own party, that it will stand a good chance to be for gotten before November 6. Members feel exactly as Roosevelt did when asked about Taft, he replied "that that was a dead issue and he wasn't dis cussing them." Congress never went home In so generally a discouraged frame of mind as It will go this year. Tariff The Big Issue.

Washington, Aug. 22. Senator Pen rose today asked the senate to direct the Clapp committee Investigating the J.U04 and 1908 campaign contributions, to Investigate the charges contained in his sensational speech of yesterday in connection with the Penrose-Arch-bpld correspondence. He asked that all of the persons mentioned in his speech be culled as witnesses. The motion was temporarily laid over. Washington, Aug. 22. In a Care ful, deliberate speech in the senate yesterday afternoon, Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania replied to the charges made regarding a certificate of depos it for $25,000 sent to him by John I). Archbold of the Standard Oil com pany In 1904. Senator Penrose admitted receiving that sum from Mr. Archbold, but as serted that it was part of a contribu tion of $125,000 made by Archbold to the republican nutionul campaign fund $100,000 of which amount, he said, went to the republican national committee and $25,000 to himself for use In Pennsylvania. "President Koosevelt had been ad vised of the contribution," Senator Penrose declared. He said that later Cornelius N. Bliss, then treasurer of the national committee, asked for another contribution of $150,000 from Archbold and his associates interested in the Standard Oil company. "The demand was urgent, insistent I may say imperative and it wa-s represented that It came direct from President Koosevelt," declared Sena tor Penrose forcefully. William Ellnn, Roosevelt leader in Pennsylvania, was scored by Penrose. The senator charged that In 1904 Kllnn offered him and Israel W. Dur ham $1,000,000 or $2,000,000 If they would favor his candidacy to the senate to succeed Senator Quay. Sen ator Penrose declared the offer was declined. Attacks' ravin and Van Valkenburg. Senator Penrose road what pur ported to be copies of telegrams to show that Klinn asked John D. Arch bold to assist him lu securing the election Senator Penrose also attacked E. A. Van Valkenburg, editor of the Philadelphia North American, and re ferred to the "effrontery, hypocrisy and mendacity of the VanValkenburg Klinn combination." The galler'es of the senate were filled and vere bright with feminine finery In response to the announce ment that Senator Penrose was to speak. The floor was crowded with sena tors and members of the house. At the conclusion of his speech the sena tor promised further disclosures. Senator Penrose had read by the clerk a newspaper Interview with Colonel Roosevelt, In which the lat ter was quoted as saying Penrose had nothing to do with the presidential campaign of H04. The senator said lie was member of the national com nit state committee and onducted the campaign in Pennsylvania. "Mr. President, is this Ingratitude (Contlnuea on page i Authorities will.

Judge Lane and Mr. Fortune both seemed to be rather wrought up over the matter, and Judge Lane at once took steps to find out by what nu thorlty Carr was taken out and fo what purpose.

William linn's newspaper, the Leader, ac- epts the defl of Senator Penrose, who said he wanted some one to make a irect accusation that he had any- hing to do with the spending of the 25,000 sent him by John D. Arch bold of Standard Oil. In a front page dltoiial the Leader says: "The Leader accepts this challenge, makes the direct accusation that oles Penrose was paid $25,000 and hat he had something to do With the pending of this or any portion of it. The Leader makes the additional Irect accusation that the $25,000 was paid to Penrose after he, as a mem- er of the Industrial committee, had taken an order from John D. Arch- old of Standard Oil on the course of that commission in Investigating the monopoly. The Leader makes the additional irect accusation that Penrose was paid this $25,000 after the report of tin Industrial committee had been ubmltted to John D.

ACTION IS NULL WHY NOT IGNORE IT? Declares the Addition of the Word "National" to Reso lution Makes no Differ ence Anyway. Editor of The Gazette-News: In these days of political upheavals nd dislocation of party lines It is onsoling, somewhat so at least, to ontemplate the troubles of our dem ocratic friends. The democratic troubles and the re publican troubles will, upon reflection by those inclined to study and thought, be seen to be strikingly alike. Governor Kltchin calls frantically pon Chairman Webb to convene the executive committee and to decide officially and finally what Is the mean ing of the words "democratic ticket" their relation to the right to vote In the democratic senatorial primary. Mr. Webb answers courteously, Why certainty, of course, to be sure, but, not Just yet, later on, by and by." This duet is swelled by the voice of r. Clark, and gradually the whole horns is joining in. Webb says these are private rehearsals, the main per formance will come later. Meanwhile overnor Kltchin strikes a pensive pose and reasons thus to and with thimself. "There are not less than ten thousand former democrats in this state, men engaged in textile manu facturing, who are going to vote for Mr. Taft on account of his veto of the democratic cotton tariff bill: now these same men, if allowed to vote in the democratic senatorial nidwary,are pgoing to vote for Simmons. ThisT hi all likelihood, means my defeat and Simmons' election. Craig, Webb, et al are winking at this program, and Simmons, he just smiles and 'stands pat.' Now, why in tarnation can't I ut some cuckle burrs under the tall of Webb and his committee and get move on them." This is only a sam pie of his ruminations. We republicans, as usual, being head of our democratic friends, have come to and had to cross this bridge and have done so, while the democrats re snorting and shying away from it, Kltchin can't get them up to it unless he puts blinkers or blind bridles on them. Snort and shy gentlemen, to your heart's content, but this bridge you have got to cross. It is so decreed It ts the linger of fate. States and political parties not only have a right to exist, but they are necessary for the conduct of human affairs, the protection of life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happi ness. A noted work on International law says: The untlmate foundation of Inter national law is an assumption that states possess rights and are subject to duties corresponding to the facts of their postulated nature. In virtue of this assumption it is held that since states exist, and are Independent be ings, they have the right o .do whatever Is necessary for the purpose of continuing and developing their existence, of giving effect to and preserving their independence, 'Under the conditions of state life the right to continue and develop ex Istence gives to a state the rights: 1 To organize itself in such manner as It may choose. 2. To do within Its dominions whatever acts It may think calculated to render It prosperous and strong. 3. To occupy unappropriated territory, and to Incorporate new provinces with the free consent of the Inhabitants, provided that the rights of an -titer state over any such prov Ince are not violated by Its Incorpora tlon." Political parties govern, regulate and control states. They are the In strumcntalltles of government. They make states, and they sometimes un make them. States control the questions of cltl zenshlp by the state, regulate and control party membership. Political parties seek success by nominating popular men aa candidates for office, and by advocating measures of gov ernment which are wise, but for th moment unpopular, trusting In what Is called the 'sober second thought of the people.' It is a novel proposition, a rare spectacle Indeed, something Indicating no doubt the near approach of the millenlum, that state of universal brotherhood, for men, honorable men educated men, and even diplomatic men, or at least men who have seen service In the diplomatic branch of the state, to hysterically claim not only the right of membership, but the right of domination and control of political party whose leading candl date, whose titular head they are most violently fighting. They ask, nay they demand to be enlisted under the re piiblb ..a flag In order that they may shoot that flag full of holes. How can this be squared with any rule of right conduct 7 No state on God footstool admits to citizenship any of God's creatures who does not take th oath of allegiance.

TWOAMERICANS SLAIN if REACH JURY BY T1EW Mr. Haynes for Prosecution Says Melton Is Guilty of Capital Crime on His Own Statement. A few wltnesse for the state and several charcater witnesses were ex amined this morning, and both sides the case against Clyde Melton. Iiarged with the murder of E. B. Swinney, announced that they had further evidence to offer, and J. Haynes of the prosecution began his argument. There are six speeches nd it is thought that it will take a night session to conclude the case today. Mr. Haynes made quite an ln- erestlng point in his argument. He contended that Melton is guilty of under in the first degree on his own statement; that Melton testified that er he had shot Swinney twice and he fell to the street, deliberately fired,' the third shot. Attorney Haynes contended that in a similar case the Supreme urt had held thnt there was time for premeditation, and that it did not mater that the third shot did not take effect. George Grant, a street car eon- uctor, testified this morning that he had stopped his car In front of the Langren hotel on the night of the killing, when he heard the first shot. He looked and saiw a man stagger: a second shot was fired, and the man fell. Later a third shot was fired. Z. A. Blackwell, motormsm on the same car, heard the first shot; he rned and saw the second shot fired, and a man fell. Later the third shot was fired. Deputy Sheriff E. M. Lyda said that e went with Melton to the jail; that Melton askedi him in the presence of Sergeant McDowell who the man was he shot. Melton said he did not know who it was; that the man was coming toward him with a knife when he shot. ' Sergeant McDowell said that Mel ton stated to Mm and Mr. Lyda that e did not know the man he shot. On cross-examination, he said he did not hear Melton say that the man was coming at him with a knife. E. L. Goldsmith was standing at the cigar stand in the Langren hotel when he heard a shot. He said he saw two men standing up shooting at sat 'h other. O. M. Davenport, patrolman, was the last witness examined. He said that after 12 o'clock on the night of the killing the witness for the de fense, Jerry Burgess, came to him and asked about the trouble, saying that he had just come to town. Witness said that the characters of Melton nd Will Swink are bad. Yesterday Afternoon. Melton was cross-examined yester day afternoon, and he denied that he ad asked Swinney for a cigarette as the witness Matthews had testified Swinney had met him and was open- ng and closing a knife; he told Swin ney that he did not wlBh to have any thing to do with him, as he was drink ing, when Swinney told him that he was ready to "have It out." He told Swinney when he struck at him that he would shoot him if he did not let him alone, and he fired twice before he was able to Jerk loose from Swin ney. Melton then went on to relate that John Swlnk told him that Swinney was after him and he went home to get his pistol. He gambled at ten pins, lost his money and put up tho pistol, but won it back. He admitted that he had been convicted many times for various offenses but did not know that he had been convicted 41 times. He ran Swinney away from his home two months ago for insulting his wife, who, he said, was an inmate of Eagle Terrace before he married her. He would not have killed Swinney if he could have helped it. Dr. McBrayer testified as to the nature of Swlnney's wounds. Reynolds Morris testified that he had heard Swinney making threats against Melton several weeks before the shooting. Will Swlnk said he was sitting. In a 'Continued on page 6.)

GOVERNMENT FORCE WAS ANNIHILATED Details of Slaughter Show On ly Ten Escaped Sit uation at Corinte Is Critical. Washington, Aug. 22. The massa cre of loyal Nlcaraguan troops sent to defend the town of Leon was fully confirmed in a belated cablegram re ceived today from the American lega tion at Managua. The fighting was more disastrous to government forces than was first reported. The rebels refused quarter and annihilated the entire force of 600 with the exception of three or four who donned rebel uniforms. The situation is reported to be crit ical. American troops are holding Managua against looters, but danger threatens Corinto. Two Americans are reported to have been deliberately murdered at the massacre at Leon on August 19. One was said to be Harvey Todd of Mississippi and the other was named Phillips. The two had been wounded and were seeking refuge at a hospital, according to state department dis patches. Repeating his adverse criticism of the landing of American marines in Nicaragua Senator Bacon today urged the senate for an investigation of con ditions in Nicaragua. "The gravity of the situation may make necessary an investigation at the other end of the capitol," he said. "What is to happen if officers of the government are al lowed to disregard th laws?" "If the state department," said the Geor gian, "acts in Mexico as It has in Nica ragua we'd be sure to have war with Mexico." Jackson, Miss., Aug. 22. Harvey Dodd, the young American reported murdered In the general massacre near u-on, Nicaragua, was about 36 years old and the son of S. L. Dodd of Kosciusko, a prominent Mississippi lawyer. The father learned the first news by long distance today. CONFEREES HALT at mjm President's Attitude Causes Elimination of Wood Rid er from Army Bill. Washington, Aug. 22. Under vir tual notice from the president that he would again veto the army appropria tion bill if it contained any riders af fecting the tenure of office of General Wood, chief of staff, the house and senate conferees today struck from the bill a contemplated provision to that effect and presented a report free from the features upon which the president based his first veto. Washington, Aug. 22 A report that the long-delayed army appropriation bill, as agreed upon by conferees of the house and senate again contains a provision interpreted by the admin istration as a rider affecting the ten i.re of office of Major General Leon ard Wood as chief of staff today en dangered what appeared to be a com plete understanding on the measure. The president vetoed the army bill a few weeks ago because it legislated Wood out of office.
