He said the greatest trouble was In being able to prove that a trust was a trust; that all that was neeaed was the evi dence to prove tht common belief and the combines would be punished. He ridiculed Bryan's theories as to the manner of destroying these combines, saying that individual liberty had to be guarded, and It was a most difficult task to prove soma things that were generally believed to exist During Mr. Shaw's discussion of the government ownership theory, he was interrupted by J.

Secretary Shaw's Dosition on the eoveinment ownershln Idea was summed up in the following, which he delivered in a very slow, de liberate manner: "The government should see that each player gets a square deal, but r. f hould not get In the game."

Diiet. climb the ladder ol auc- - cess round by round NO STATEMENT YET ; : BY SENATOR BAILEY WASHINGTON, Ccpt. 10. Senator Bailey, of . Texas, apparently aban doned, at least for the present, his in tention of issuing broadside against William J. Bryan Y aavocacy of gov ernment ownership of railroads. More than a week ago he ' stated In New York that on reaching Washington he would give out a statement He re turned to Washington Saturday and Immediately set upon by an army of newspaper men. Last night he lft for New York without making the promised statement His hesitancy in the matter, it is believed here, is due to the fact that Bailey, as other leaders of the party in the South, will labor privately with Bryan to get him to sidetrack his rovernment owner ship of railroad views. In this connes; on there is some significance in an interview given out this morning by Senator Ray nor, -of Maryland, who says: "I do not think, In reading over Bryn"g speech, he has" come to the unalterable conclusion upon the subject of government own ership of rallroad3. He regards It as a question for future mid so do a great many other people, but he makes no imperative demand that It must be placed in the nlaLf. mi or accepted as a policy of the party."
