The center of the nave was unoc cupied .except by the throne seats and a few chairs back of the columns. A red carpet was st retched down the aisles and the centro of both transeps.

The condemned man until ho stood upon tho drop, faced death In tho same stolid manner in which he has con ducted himself since his arrest. When he stepped on the scaffold however, much of his courage fulled him. Just before the cop was drawn over his face,, he 'attempted to utter a prayer but although his lips moved convul sively his voice would not respond, and ho was not able to utter a sound. It was, evident that he was on the verge of a complete collapse and the sheriff therefore hastened the last details as much as possible. Just prior to the execution the aged father of Ivens called at the jail and asked to see his son for tho last time. His request was refused by tho guards. and the father made a scene as he begged with tears to be allowed to see the young man once more. It was finally found necessary to lead him from the building. An aged woman who made her appearance . at about the same time as the father of Ivens insisted that the condemned man was ibout to hang unjustly, as her own son had- confessed to her that he, and not Ivens was the actual criminal. She was detained, ponding an inquiry into her sanity. LONGWORTHS LEAVE LONDON FOR KIEL. (By the Associated Press.) London, June 22. Congressman and Mrs. Longworth left London for Kiel today.

He wanted it understood that he had no objection lo that practice. If in dulged in lior did lie believe the public objects to the use ol these conveniences by either the president or bis family, llis opposition was, he added, due en tirely to the fact that such legisla tion tends to build up class distinc tions, -which he maintained should be reprobated, by all.

' GROSSCUP ON CORPORATIONS Striking Address Today by Prominent Jurist NOT SINFUL PER SE Senseless Denunciation of Corpora tions Criticised The Thing To Io Is To liaise I'p Compel it ion Tin' Rightful Plane Of The Individual Man Defined. (Hy the Associated Ollawa, Kansas. June Peter H. Crossup of Pre?s.) 22. ludgo the United Slates court of apc'ils made an ad dress here today in which he. dealt with Hi question of corporations. .Judge Orosscup spoke' of the' great growth of corporations since the Civil War, declared that ownership' of the coiinlry's industrial properties should be restored to the people and us a st. p ill this direction favored state as well as congressional net Ion. lb- said that, out of recent revelations of the. man ner of conducting certain corporations there had come a spiril of Indiscrimi nate distrust, a spirit of .criticism, "in ton many places a blind fury, that continues:. still lo envelop our jud'-r-nieiil, as a frog blinds the eyes to in telligent study of some great build ing." : The first thing to do, he said, in tlio move to restore to the people their rights, was to dispel this fog,- to see things in their right place -and pro portions. "A constant duly, of course," sr. id he, "is to see to it that the particular corporations that are breaking the law be. made to obey the law. To the full extent, that the national administra tion sincerely nnd intelligently, is pur suing this duty, public opinion wl'l re main behind it. Hut if the adminis tration and the republican leaders think that the disease will be reached and eradicated solely 'through contin uous campaigns against -this or that incorporated enterprise, as if the cor poration in itself as the cmbodi'niint of moderate enterprise, were some alien enemy I entirely dissent from them. When Mr. Hrynii denounces the particular corporations that by discrimination and favoritism, succeed in suppressing competition, or that, un justly oppress the public,-. T agree with him. Kvery species of device that puts it within tin? power of an outside parly j to choose which of two or more com petitors shall succeed and which shall fail is a, crime against that first prin ciple of American business lifi equal ity ot opportunity. T!ut" when Mr. Hryan, us the already chosen leader of the democratic -parly,, sees no fur ther than this when lie confuses what, under ft just corporate policy corporate enterprise could become, with particu lar corporations' that have rjiused their opportunities, I dissent, again." Judge (Irosseup said that the incor poration of enterprise is not itself a sin. The competition in many cases had been unjustly' suppressed and ill many lines ..almost, destroyed, but the chief -cause' was In tho fact that, under j our present corporation policy the peo ple at .large, "though tliey have abun dant means, have no reasonably secure corporate way offered to them to raise iqi competition. The thing to do, to raise up competitors," he said, "is not indiscriminately to denounce tho cor poration. The thing to do to raise up competition, is to rehabilitate tha corporation, to purify it, to restore tot if .character " and responsibility, ihac tin- people, may come back Into the ownership of Hie country's Industrial properties.
