i mm -A n - H FOR BRYAN SEN WELLINGTON DECLARES AGAINST IMPERIALISM DENOUNCES McKINLEY -Former Republican Leader of Maryland Abandons His Party 4 For the Sake of Patriotism Cumberland Md Special One of the most thrilling scenes in the history of American politics was witnessed here flast night when Senator Wellington i once the unchallenged republican leader of Maryland stood on the same plat form with Mr Bryan and solemnly re nounced his party for its crimes against liberty and the weak treachery of the McKinley administration Three thousand persons filled the hall and more than ten thousand stood out side cheering other orators The power and passion of Senator Wellingtons de nunciation of President McKinley for his falsity and weakness were beyond words to express The sreat multitude roared out its greetings to the senator who -was great enough to abandon his party for Ihe sake of the republic the patrolt who refused to eat his words and give up his convictions like Sen ator Hoax DENOUNCES MKINLEY This spectacle tonight was one wor thy of history and Senator Wellingtons story of President McKinleys broken promises of he deliberate violation of the constitution by the administrations advisers and of the swift approach to despotism marked out by the acts of the responsible leadership of the repub lican party stirred his hearers to an ex traordinary demonstration Mr Bryan followed in a noble appeal to patriotic republicans to follow the example of Senator Wellington and be brave enough and wise enough to set party ties aside in this overwhelming crisis which has come upon the Amer ican republic And when finally Mr Bryan and Senator Wellington locked t iiands in the presence of the audience a solemn union in defense of the re public against imperialism the multi tude leaped to its feet and shrieked again and again I have had to write political forecasts of Maryland in a good many campaigns -and it is safe to say that its electoral vote is absolutely certain for Bryan this year DECLARES HIMSELF CLEARLY All yesterday republicans spent their time in prophesying that last nights meetings would be disappointments and then as they grew in wai mth they pro ceeded to abuse Wellington in the most -virulent fashion Although it has been known for weeks that Senator Wellington would support 3ryan it remained until last night for liim to make a public declaration of it to the citizens of his home town and his home state He made it clearly vig orously and forcibly There had been rumors that he would ie slugged and that the hall would be packed with a clique that would seek to discomfit him So strong were these rumors that the senator was guarded on the way to the hall COLONEL BRYAN ARRIVES Colonel Bryan reached this stronghold of republicanism shortly before 8 oclock tonight After a stop for dinner at Deer Park he made a short talk at the summer resort to a delegation of democrats from Cumberland who form ed a reception committee Owing to the latenes sof the hour the train was stopped some distance above the station and Mr Bryan was hurried to the Academy of Music which had been packed to the doors since 7 oclock It was an audience of thought ful men generally A few women occu pied seats on the ground floor but there were scores of women in the gallery Here are some things Wellington said that aroused much applause I believe that if William J Bryan is elected president and appoints a secretary of the treasury that tary of the treasury will obey the law of the land A tax upon commerce between Porto Rico and any other port of the United States is as unconstitutional as a tax upon commerce between Maryland and New York It is the duty of a senator of the United States to defend the constitution against all comers even the president There is a secret compact between this government and the government of -Great Britain The time has come when I must sub ordinate my party to my regard for the welfare of the state WARM RECEPTION TO BRYAN At the conclusion of the address the senator was given three cheers with a will Colonel Bryan was then intro duced The audience acted -as though mad Men threw their coats and hats rin the air and yelled until the persplra tion rolled in streams from their faces Women stood upon chairs and waved hats and handkerchiefs It was a grand demonstration The outside meeting was held in a square outside the Academy of Music - Upward of 5000 people packed this square and stood patiently for nearly ithree hours awaiting Colonel Bryan Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania and Uocal orators addressed the crowd dur ing the wait Governor Pattison introduced Colonel Bryan who made an extended address on the imperialism issue It was the address that he has made all through tthe campaign OLNEY GOMES OUT FOR BRYAK Ex Seoretary Views With Alarm Our Foreign Troubles New York Special The World prints a letter from Richard Olney sec retary of state during the Cleveland administration in which Mr Olney de clared his intention of supporting Mr Bryan for president After saying that Mr Bryan Is hard ly the candidate he should choose If he had his way in the matter and that he entirely dissents from parts of the Kansas City platform Mr Olney says Perfection in a candidate or plat form is an ideal dream and infirmity in its creed and defects in its leadership will always characterize every party But they in no wise excuse a citizen from taking his assigned part in the government of the country from taking his asisgned part In the government of the country from making up his mind what the commonweal demands and what partys success will come nearest satisfying them and using his influence and casting his vote accordingly Be it admitted that the democratic party its platform and Its candidate are open to much just criticism yet all things considered would not Its triumph be the best outcome of the present presidential contest Mr Olney then criticises the policy of the McKinley administration regarding the Philippines and thinks the country will soon find itself in the tolls of a Chinese problem even more costly than the Philippine problem Itself He concludes For myself I find it tolerably clear that a citizens duty in connection with the presidential elec tion requires him to desire the success of the democratic party BRYANS CAR IS STOPPEO Railroad Company Refu963 to Let His Car Traval Wheeling W Va Special Be cause the Ohio River railroad manage ment declined to permit the private car in which William J Bryan has been touring this state to be attached to its train from Parkersburg the demo cratic candidate rode into Wheeellng in a public car using a ticket paid for by National Committeeman McGraw Mr Bryans friends in Parkersburg and surrounding territory are Incensed over what they construe as an affont to their leader This feeling was in tensified by the refusal of the railroad to grant excursion rates for the Bryan demonstration today on condition that visitors should come in blocks one man to have tickets In each block When It became known that Mr Bryans route would take him from Parkersburg to Wneellng permission Parkersburg committee was asked by the tee to have the private car taken over the Ohio River railroad They failed to secure permission The refusal came through Vice Presi dent Burt of the railroad but the com pany attributed it to President H H Rogers who is also at the head of the Standard Oil companys interests and is intimately associated with Senator El kins As Mr Burt and Mr McGraw are personal friends the latter was asked to obtain permission but declined to ask for that which the committees had been unable to obtain The offer of the company to give reduced rates to excursionists in blacks was refused GAIN IN THE CENTRAL STATES Democrats Have Reason to Hope For Bryans Success Lincoln Neb Special Dr P L Hall chairman of the democratic state central committee returned today from a meeting of the chairmen of the middle west states at Chicago The conditions as he heard them reported there hae filled him with hope and he risks his reputation as a prophet on the forecast that Bryan will carry the majority of the states represented in that meeting He had a private conversation with each of the chairmen present with the exception of Ohios representative Mr Hall said Michigan Ohio Indiana Illinois Iowa Kansas Wisconsin Minnesota Nebraska were represented There is no doubt that we have gained immeasura bly in all these states since 1896 I am not a prophet nor the son of a prophet but if we do not carry most of thejse states I cannot read political indica tions What has caused the change Well Imperialism or the new colo nial policy of the present administra tion is first a factor and next the trusts However a growing popular opinion that Mr McKinley is a weak man is going to have a far reaching effect His frequent lightning changes on public questions and his apparent servility to Hanna lead to a general opinion that he is a dangerous man in the high office he fills On the other hand the fearless attitude of Mr Bryan on all public auestions are inspiring confidence in him The personalities of the two candidates are bound to have a far reaching effect Yes I saw the great labor parade It was magnificent and it was apparent that a strong Bryan sentiment pervades labor circles in Chicago The prosperity cry of the republicans Is not even whis pered to the laboring men of Chicago Conditions there are not such as to warrant it LLEWELLYN LAID AWAY Wichita Kan Special The funeral of ex Governor Llewellyn was held here today The body which lay in state yesterday at the Llewellyn home was taken this morning to the Plymouth Congregational -church where services were held The burial was at Maple LGrove Cemetery - tt 4 fcVi5m rn WILL v STAY TROOPS OF THE POWERS WILL REMAIN IN PEK1N TO RESTORE ORDER Two Answers Come to the American Plan For Dealing With the Chinese Empire Washington D C Special The latest expression as to the attitude of the powers on the evacuation of Pekin comes from the United States ambas sador at Paris General Horace Porter who has advised the authorities here that the attitude of the French gov ernment is favorable to the position taken by Russia Almost simultaneously with this dis patch from General Porter came an other from the American charge daf faires at Berlin giving the attitude of Germany on Russias proposal This in substance states that Germany while anxious to avlod any friction between the powers regards the conditions at Pekin such as to require the continued presence of German forces there Nei ther General Porter nor Mr Jackson give the text of the answers but only the substance of the position taken by the two governments These two highly important com munications bring the Chinese negotia tions to a very advanced stage though they are not yet concluded as all of the answers are not yet In The Ger man and French answers however clearly Indicate the alignment of the powers vIt Is generally accepted that Germanys attitude in favor of remain ing at Pekin will be concurred in by Italy and Austria as these two coun tries act with Germany on political questions of a general nature AUSTRIA WANTS TO HANG ON Moreover definite word has been re ceived here which clearly foreshadows Austrias position In favor of remain ing at Pekin As to the purposes of Great Britain there is an absolute lack of official information though little doubt Is entertained that since Ger many has taKen the inltatlve Great Britain will follow suit in favor of re maining at Pekin The petition of Japan likewise is lack ing in definiteness although it is be lieved in the best posted quarters that if other nations remain at Pekin Japan will deem it expedient to remain there also It would seem from this that France is the only government to give concur rence to the Russian proposition al though the United States has expressed a purpose of following Russias course unless the other powers brought about a modification of Russias position Thus far Russia has not expressed any purpose of modifying her original po sition RUSSIA ISNT QUITTING YET It was stated authoritatively today that Russia has not ordered the de parture of her minister or troops from Pekin up to this time so far as the government is advised It is stated that no new propositions have been pre sented but that the question is prac tically the same as when first pre sented namely as to whether the men will remain or be withdrawn from Pe kin The receipt of the communication from Berlin and Paris brought about numerous conferences between the pres ident Secretary Root and Acting Sec retary of State Hill and also between Mr Hill and Mr Adee It was gath ered from these meetings that another note was being prepared by the United States but the authorities did not feel disposed to give any inkling as to its nature and it is quite probable that its final form will await the consideration of the cabinet tomorrow Aside from the general question the French government is again consider ing the status of Li Hung Chang and this subject was also brought to the attention of the authorities here today There have been reports of prospective detention of Earl LI in case he pro ceeded north but the communications just in hand indicate that there will be no interference with his movements His acceptability as a peace commis sioner also continues to be a subject of discussion there being a strong desire in certain quarters not to include him in the Chinese commmissioh M Thiebaut the French charge daf faires and Baron Speck Von Stern berg the German charge had long con sultations at the state department to day but the purposes of their calls was not disclosed although they are un derstood to have related to the Chinese situation The military situation at Pekin remains unchanged apparently WILL OPPOSE IMPERIALISM Columbus O Special A non-partisan anti imperialistic league was formed here today with John Beatty of Columbus as president and L W Brown of Wauseon secretary Resolu tions were adopted protesting against he adoption of the so called Imperial stlc policy In the evening a number if the leaders in the movement includ ing Mayor S M Jones of Toledo de livered addresses MIMIC WARFARE Dover Eng Special The combined army and navy maneuvers were held here this morning The idea was to show the chance an invading force would have The forts defeated the main naval attack but meanwhile the invaders landing at another point seized the London railroad PROGRESS Details of the Growth and Advancement of Magnetic Osteopathy COMBINED BY PROF KHARAS The Founder of over a dozen Large Institutions of Iowa and Nebraska OmahaNeb Special The attention of the reading public has often been called to the remarkable progress made along scientific lines by the repeated discoveries of Prof Theo Kharas He has been devoting years of study lead ing toward scientific unfoldment in the realm of psychic thought as well as new methods of curing diseases without drugs medicines or surgery or any me chanical or chemical appliance The method which he has practically per fected is known as Magnetic Oste opathy In speaking of the grandeur of this science Prof T J Ruddy man ager of the Kharas branch office in At lantic la said THE KHARAS SYSTEM DEFINED Osteopathy is a method of treating diseases by manipulation the result and purpose of which is to restore the normal condition of nerve control and blood supply to every organ of the body by removing all physical obstruc tion in the way of contracted muscles misplaced bones contracted nerve cen ters etc thereby stimulating and In hibiting functional activity as the con dition may require Vital or animal magnetism is an electric substance or force generated in our bodies and cap able of being transmitted by the trained mind from the operator or magnetic healer to the subject or patient Re store this magnetic substance to the patients nerves and blood and you re store at once the Jlfe power and vi tality he has lost The grand forces combined with a thorough knowledge of anatomy practical suggestive thera peutics and mental science constitute the Kharas System of Magnetic Oste opathy Certainly the only rational and scientific method of curing the old chronic diseases which have so long baffled the old school of practitioners From the wonderful success of Prof Ruddy since he has taken up this pro fession his judgment should have con siderable weight He had studied the Weltmer Method before he entered the Kharas school but found that what he had learned was not at all practical and that the must learn actual work by practical study under competent teachers Why was it that Kharas could accept him as a student and when he finished his six weeks course employ him for a year with the privi lege of renewing his contract for three years longer when other schools could not hire him for a single month The only answer is that Prof Kharas has the system which people recognize as standard and when he establishes an office in a place he gets all the patron age People who have taken so called magnetic treatment and failing of health come to the Kharas office and are cured Atlantic had an osteopath who had been in the city two years when Prof Ruddy located there But now the Kharas manager has double the work of the old established osteo path Why Simply because he has a grander broader and much more com prehensive system of curing diseases He can cure three times as many cases as the old style osteopath Besides from the study of psychology Prof The above shows the location of the Kharas Headquarters at 1515 1517 Chi cago street Omaha Neb Fronting on Jefferson Park it would be hard to find a better location A visit to the Kharas Offices will convince any one of the great progress being made In this new science Ruddy Is able to give what ProfKharas calls psychic diagnosis which never fails to give the proper cause and pos sible cure of the case In question If a case is absolutely incurable the Kha ras people know it and refuse to at tempt an impossibility Others not knowing for sure what can be done stagger blindly ahead and make all manner of ridiculous mistakes Dr Ralph French Webster of Omaha entered the Creighton Medical College of this city and graduated with due honors He did not practice medicine He found the field overflowing with men just like himself men who could not do with medicines what they were supposed to do What did he do He investigated the Kharas System of Magnetic Osteopathy ard Investiga POINTED PARAGRAPHS Dead crows are silent

third matrimonial ven ture The actor has not found it wise to play in New York for several years because of a dispute between himself and his first wife as to alimony What the country needs just now is some means of canning the surplus heat for winter consumption There are lmlllnii rt it tion means to be convinced He took the regular course of study and the very day he finished the six weeks he was placed in charge of a branch office at Jefferson la and now has an In come of 60 a week If he had practiced medicine he would not have had an in come of 60 the first year Money is not all he is doing good that it would have been absolutely Impossible to have accomplished in the practice of medicine Dr Richard M Knox of Muscotah Kan had practiced the regular school of medicine for twenty years He lost his health and ook the Kha ras treatment and got well of course and then took the course He had tried every institution in the country and had spent his fortune in trying to regain his health Now he Is practic ing Magnetic Osteopathy and making more money and doing more good in a month than he was able to do In a year before THE DAY OF MEDICINE GONE The leading men in the medical pro fession today acknowledge the fact that the practice of medicine is not a defi nite science They know that the same drug given two different people undei PERSONAL AND OTHERS A diligent search

Hom ar skeptical when they are cured aa4 all are cured REMARKABLE ADVANCEMENT Prof Kharas has lived In Nebraska for over twelve years but some yeara ago had been away at various school and universities studying and eighteen months ago returned to the state ana began business with a capital stock at less than 5 Now he is president or the Kharas Infirmary Company waica Is organized under the laws of the state with a paid up caiptal of 10000 an his financial standing and business m J tegrlty Is absolutely unquestioned Hej has spent and Is spending thousands of dollars right along for advertising He owns the Kharas Prlntery which prints weekly the Nebraska Socialist the state official paper of the Socialise party In Nebraska the Kharas Book a monthly magazine devoted to social reform and Good Health a monthly il lustrated paper devoted to his science of Magnetic Osteopathy Although not a politician Prof Kharas was nomi nated by the Socialist Convention In this state which met at Lincoln as their candidate for governor of Ne braska He has no hopes of election but his nomination shows the esteem la which he is held by those who know him best He would not give up his grand work for humanity to be gov ernor of the state There are others who can do such work as that but few who conduct the great enterprises ol which he Is the head A FEW OF KHARAS CURE3 Postmaster John Onstott Beebee town la brought his 16-year-old boy to Kharas to be cured of paralysis standing since the lad was 14 months old The best of doctors said ther PROFESSOR THEODORE KHARAS A M Ph D Snpf exactly the same conditions will never or rarely produce the same results Can such risky work be depended upon It is being demonstrated daily that Magnetic Osteopathy is an exact sci ence The same manipulation or the magnetization of a nerve center in one individual will produce the same result if performed on another The Mag netic Osteopath does his practice work in school on free patients The medical man practices all his life at the expenses of the poor suffering patient and after all he is no wiser His mistakes are buried and forgotten only to be repeated on others SOME STATISTICS During the last eighteen months the Kharas Headquarters and its branches have actually cured over two thousand cases of chronic disease and in nearly every instance the patient had been given up as hopeless by the regular doctors The work of Kharas and his twenty two able and trained assistants is well known and they unhesitatingly challenge anyone to mention a single death that has occurred under their treatment of over two thousand so called hopeless cases They also challenge the leading physicians of Iowa and Nebraska and the leading in stitutions where chronic- diseases are treated to show that as an actual mat ter of history over 60 per cent of all cases treated by medicine and surgery do not die under such treatment NOT A FAITH CURE The element of faith or religious be lief does not enter into Kharas System of Magnetic Osteopathy It is absolute ly scientific and it makes no difference whether the patients believe in it or not Infants idiots and insane patients have been repeatedly under treatment with as good results as those who claim to understand and believe In the treatment For that matter a largo majority of the patients who have taken was no hope but he was cured Then Mr Onstott brought his wife who was cured in a week of a dreadful case o chronic constipation of years standing Then one of their neighbors Mrs Belle Coleman went to the Missouri Valley Iowa office of the Kharas company and was cured of total paralysis of the right side Another neighbor Mrs M A Honaker had been operated upon two years ago for fibroid tumor of the uterus The tumor returned of course worse than ever and the doctors said a second operation would be useless and fatal In desperation she went to tb Kharas Headquarters in Omaha and ia five weeks was cured sound and well This was some time ago and not the slightest symptom of a return of th trouble has she eyer had nor will she ever have So much for one vicinity where Kha ras good work Is well known Where they do not know the Kharas people they call them frauds Where they do know them they have the entire confidence of the people Recorder of Deeds Chas C Brant ol Nebraska City was cured of a paralyzed arm pronounced hopeless by doctors and surgeons in less than a weeks treatment by Prof Kharas Mrs A Sanquest of the same town Nebraska City was cured of cancer of the breast by the same bloodless painless method of manipulation Mts Geo C Clapp of Brock Neb cured of cancer on the nose by the Kharas treatment Mr J A Payne the wealthiest and best known man in Hamburg la or for that matter Southwestern Iowa was cured of numbness and writers paraly sis of the right arm in one treatment of piles in one treatment and in a short time of a fistula that had been troubling him for nine years Do the above
