TOWNE DISCOVERS AN ISSUE Western Conaressmnn from Ifif York Makes Bitter Attack on the President. KANSAS CITT. April -Representa tive Charles A. Towns of New York, re sponding to a toast here last night at the Jefferson day banquet, went outside his set speech to eulogize William J. Bryan and to bitterly attack President Roosevelt. Both sentiments aroused tho most Intense enthusiasm, reference to the Nebraskun ending in a demonstration that amounted to an uproar. Mr. Towns did not refer to Mr. Bryan by name. "Your toastmaster has put on me the duty of referrtnc to our great standard-bearer of 1906," said ho. 'I feel almost that he himself, in tar away India, must bo catching the enthu siasm of your homage tonight." Mr. Towne then read from an editorial in which sympathy was offered to the dem ocratic editor who was wont to" write col umns on imperialism and free silver. 'I am as thankful aa any one that the money question has worked ltseii out so satisfactorily," resumed Mr. Towne. "But I cannot accept In silence the popular ver sion of why tho predicted panic that was to follow the adoption of the gold standard did not materialise. The panic did not occur because, since 1S96, the country bus produced enough gold to supply the money j market without material increase in the silver output. We owe our prosperity to Providence, not to a policy. When men refused to open the mint God opened the mines." Then Mr. Towne attacked President Roosevelt. "I'm going to take you Into my confidence this much," said the speaker, "by telling you that I am going back to Washington with the avowed purpose of exposing President Roosevelt. He is the greatest promlser and smallest performer since the days of Judas Iscariot. He filched his rate legislation program frorrr-a national democratic platform and has now laid down on his own bill; he sends for legislators and lectures them like boys. "And his tools consider them for a min ute. They are a speaker and a degenerate house. Nowadays there are three steps in national legislation getting the permis sion of 'Uncle Joe' to introduce a bill and then securing Its passage In the house and the senate. I get no show In the house. I might as well make a power of attorney to the speaker and go back home and get to work. I wouldn't stay in con gress or in the democratic party if I did not believe that democracy will eventually triumph In national affairs." It was far after midnight before the speechmaklng was finished and Mr. Towne's response was to one of the last toasts on the program. S3!

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Protest Tiled with Police Board Azainut Grantina; Number of Saloou Lkenses. NOTICES NOT PROPERLY ADVERTISED F.tealog Bee Determined to Protect Ita Rlajhta and the Rights of Its I'atrona 0'ell Files Deed to City Hall site. Protests were filed with the Board of Fire and Police commissioners yesterday noon against the granting of liquor li censes, the notices of which have not bc-m properly Inserted In The Evening Bee. the paper having the largest circulation in Douglas county. The licenses protested are those which have been advertised in the World-Herald and the South Omaha Pally IH-mocrat. Investigation has proved that the two papers mentioned have in numerous, if not all, cases published the notices for the saloon men with the un derstanding that if their case failed in the court of appeal aa it did in the district court the fee would not be exacted. The Bee has assured the South Omaha men that they will be completely protected In their rights. In this controversy The Be has maintained from the start that It has the plain reading of the statute known as the Slocumb law behind its action. It Is a significant fact that moat of the South Omaha saloon men are having more confidence in the statements of The Evening Bee, since more than twenty no tices were turned into The Bee office for publication yesterday forenoon. Most of these Include the notlres of the Arms con nected In a business way with the Jotter Brewing company. Many of the liquor dealers consulted yesterday declared that the business dealings of The lice In South Omaha had always been on the square. The members of the Board of Fire and Police commissioners expressed no sur prlxe at the filing of the contests for t lie reas m that they know the management proposed to put the matter to the test In a thorough manner. They expected simi lar protests from the other side of the con troversy also, but as yet none have been received. The saloon men who wish to be ready to open their places of business for the new year on the first of May will have to file all their applications with the board Monday. In order to have the no tices correspond, as well. It will be neces sary that they be turned In at the South Omaha efhee of the Bee by 11 : a m. They will then appear in the evinlng Issue of the paper. Some of the saloon men Intimated that the Board of Fire and Police commissioners had given them to understand that they would get their licenses, whichever paper they gave tluir notices to. This appears to be an error. Secretary Burquest stated that he Invariably advised the men who questioned him that he could not positively say which paier was the right one, but that the dealers should follow the court's instructions and place the publications with the paper which has the largest cir culation in the county. The liquor dealers are all anxious to comply with the laws of the state. Tho Bee will guarantee that all rights of these men will be protected. 0"Vell Files Deed. The latest In the South Omaha city hall controversy Is the tiling of the title deed to the O'Xlol property with the city clerk. This was done Friday and by it Mr. O'Noll has conveyed all his lights to the property to the city of 6-uth Omaha without com pensation. The warrant ordered by the council cannot be drawn by reason of the Injunction proceedings which have not yet come to trial. The ia was to have been tried Friday morning, but the defendants secured a continuance until Monday on the ground that their counsel had not been able to prepare for the case, being absent from the city. Vlth regard to the Injunction issued against the Rock Ixland road, there has been no material iliange. The case Is to be tried Tuesday. It is said an attempt is being made by Interested parties to reach an agreement without resort to litigation. Hank diets ev Nafv. The Packers' National bank received a new safe yeKtrrduy and the same wns placed In positinii. I: In one of the mot.t modern coin safes, being supposed to be proof against all asH.iull.

Regarding the statement made public lately respecting the appointments for the city positions, Thomas Doctor stated last night that there was no ground for any of them. He said the names to which so much posltlvenes attached had been mentioned by him In private conversation, but none of them had been finally selected. Their men tion had merely been tentative as under consideration until It la known whether the city council will agree with tha chief ex ecutive. As yet the council has not been consulted as. a body nor Individually. The matter of appointments will be part of the order of business at Monday night's council meeting. Eaater gervlees.

April 14-Tho American Intercollegiate football rul'w committee met here todiy and completed Its labors in the matter of the revision of the rules looking to a general reform of the game. The sole effort of the committee was to simplify and clarify the wording. The definition of the rule providing that a plitx r shall be on the line of scrimmage on offense was parsed, several additional penalties Intro duced and provisions made for the enforce ment of penalties. Tripping Wits more specifically defined to day. The rule passed was: "Tripping A player trips another when he obstructs him below- the knee with that part of the leg that Is below tho knee. "Note Tills doe not prevent a player from diving under a player, provided he does not trip us d. tlncl above.' In the rule devised to eliminate mass plays addilioiiul sufefruards were Intro duced to insuru the possibility of evading it as follows: "No player of those originally occupying the positions of center, guard or ta.-kle, that Is the tlva middle players of the line, may drop tiack from the linn of scrimmage on the offense unless he la at least five yards hack of the line of scrimmage when tiie ball Is put In play and another player takes his place on the line of scrimmage. "Note There shall be no shifting of men to evade this rule." A provision was made In case two fouls were simiiliM neouily made against ths same si(l that the. sum of the penalties shall be Inflicted Instead of the first of those sig nalled, as formerly.
