He made every dollar of his fortune out of politics as s stepping stone to the lecture platform. Mr. Bryan dlsoovered many years ago that he could make his political prominence pay. He Is a shrewd advertiser and in his wav a elever business man. He has dlsoovered that so long aa he la a oandldate for presi dent and a posslbls nominee, gifted with the ability to weave flowing sentences Into well rounded periods, ths public will come to hear him at so much a head. He is in politics because it helps the gate receipts. Like the actresses who have discarded the stolen diamond dodge for the greater pub licity of aw divorce suit. air. Brysn will quit running for president and will quit poli tics just ss soon aa he discovers that some other form of advertising will bring more dollars to the box office when he Is an nounced to appear on the slsge. Mr. Bryan has said that I owed my elec tion to ths national committee to fraud In ths Springfield convention of two years sgo and that ths Peoria convention of this yesr which refused to do his bidding was ''asphyxiated" by me. Both statements, as I have said before, are untrue. Mr. Bryan's fraud Issue was before the convention frankly and fully. The ques tion at Issue, namsly, Mr. Ilryan's duslrs that I resign from the national -committee was presented to the convention in plain terms. The roll call was 1.008 sgsinst Mr. Bryan's request to 670 for It. This result throws a little more light on Mr. Bryan's sincerity when he talks about "asphyxia tion." This result ought to be, I think. In the view of aay sober-minded person, enough to settle Mr. Bryan's "Issue" as to rue. He seems not willing to accept it. Challeaere ta Mr. Bryan. To test Mr. Bryan's boasted sincerity a little. I challenge him to this: If I hold my position ea the democratic nstional com mittee by fraud. 1 ought to resign. If Mr. Bryan has falsely accused me of profiting by fraud, then he ought to quit running for president, because no man. Is fit to be a candidate for that high office who goes out In public and lies about any member of his party. Therefore, I propose that Mr. Bryan snd I put the Issue aa between us up to the men who sat aa delegates In the Springfield convention of two. years ago. Those delegates are still living In Illinois, they care all be found. Mr. Bryan said that a majority of them were opposed to me for national committeeman; hs has said that he had at 6t. Ixuls letters from more than half of those delegates In which they repudiated the sctlon of tbs conven tion which resulted la my becoming ns tional committeeman. It us poll those delegates.

PEACE OVERTURES BLOCKED Pino Guana Blows Up Two Bailroad Bridges in Finar Del Rio. PALM A PROPOSES leu DATs' ARMISTICE. lasargeats Have nearly ' Foar Tboa ass Meat Well Armed, Well Meaoted Saa Jaaa 4a Mar. Uses la Attacked'. HAVANA, Sept. i. All peace overtures are blocked by tne refusal of Pino Ouerra, the Insurgent ' leader In Pinar del Rio province, to enter Into any arrangement for an armistice. Ouerra's answer to ths gov ernment's announcement 'of Its rtsdiness to grant a ten days' armistice Is the blow ing up of two bridges on the western rail way, the cutting of railway communica tion beyond Pinar Del Rio citp and an at tack on San Juan De Martinet, It la believed here tonight that San Juan De Marlines Is In the liande of the Insurgents and that the garrison, consisting of 100 government recruits and a small force of mounted rural guards, hss been defeated or captured. The fact that other leaders of the Insur rection ars willing to agree to an armistice can have little effect so long as Ouerra is determined to prosecute the war, and there, la alight doubt In any quarter that Ouerra can control the sttuattoji In his region. His force Is reported by all those who have -visited him recently as rang ing from $.004 to 4,000 men; all of them well mounted and some of them well and others indifferently armed. The government force opposed to him, which Is under commsnd of Colenel Alavos, comprises about 1,000 men. It was reinforced at 7 o'clock last svenlng by Lieutenant Colonel .Clewes with 150 men and three machine guns from Ha- . Colonel Avalos' force, wit hthe sir " I .. - . t ' .... Jception ot email oeiacnmrnis leu at wn Jusn De Martlnes and San Luis. Is at Pinar Del Rio City, but Is without means of transportation to ths relief of Ban Juan De Martlnes. Not more than 400 of them are mounted. - ' Deaaatade mt Qatrra, General Menocal ssld tonight thst Ouerra evidently had not been Informed thst the government had actually, although infor mally, granted an armistice, adding that a second committee had been sent to htm, but could not reach hlni before tomorrow. The fact is, however, that Ouerra refuses point blsnk to accept . aa armistice except on condition that the last presidential and congressional elections shall be annulled. Thst the government should consent to this Is out of the question and so tonight every prospect points to the contlnusncs of the wsr. In connection with Pino Ouerra's attl tuds It Is notable that ths liberals have grown more Independent. They . say that on account of the government's surveil lance and prosecutions they will no longer bold meetings snd thst It Is useless to consider peace under the circumstances. Several prominent veterans arrived to day from eastern Cuba, but the veterans' peace conferences are proceeding slowly In view of the day's developments. The talk of the veterans Is tending to become more aggressive end they urge action rather than peace endeavors as being the more practical means of ending hostilities. All regard ths blowing up of aq English company's railroad bridges as a serious matter and likely to lavlts International action by Great Britain, or at least an in terrogation of the government at Wash ington by Great Britain as to whether the former Intends to Intervene te end war conditions In Cuba. Alfredo Zayas, ths president of the liberal party, had brief conference tonight, one with General oMnocal and another with Benor Sangully, an independent senator, bat refused to talk for publication on the ubjecta discussed.

Main floor. the city, while better than that in Pinar del Rio provlpce. Is not encouraging. Atner cans who have visited the camps Colonel Quae, near San Antonio de'- los Ranos, and those of Colonel Asbert, In the southern part of Havana province, have found several hundred men In camp, armed. Around Guanajay, and Artemlsa are many rural .guards, but ail the towns In that region are In wholesome fear of the In surgents. The latter do very much as they please. The situation In Santa Clara province Is worse, particularly In respect of the In surgent strength, although It Is believed that the armistice le being respected there. There have been many desertions from the rural guards to the Insurgent slde.O Lbynas Del Castillo, who now signs him self general In chief of the Insurgents In Havana province, hss Issued an order to his followers to respect the armistice, as proposed. Testsrday's fight in this prov ince was due to the fact that the govern ment officers did not know that a cessation of hostilities had been tentatively author ised.. Most of the Havana veterans speak with much gravity of the disparity In numbers of the government trooops as compared with ths Insurgents. It Is generally ac knowledged that up to the present time ths Insurrectionists, especially in Pinar del Rio province, are In greater numbers, bet ter equipped, armed, mounted and fed than was Maximo Gomes's command In Its best fighting days.-' Government officials fully appreciate the gravity of the situation, but are still hopeful that ths news of the ten day armistice announced by the govern ment today will have the effect, when It reaches the enemy, of causing a cessation of hostilities until all concerned shall have obtained an actual understanding of the peace proposals. ( Troops Are Desertlag. A dispatch from Clenfuegos, province of Santa Clara, today, says that In the en gagement -between government troops and Insurgents nsar Palymra yesterdsy the for mer lost two men killed and had fourteen men wounded, while the Insurgents had six msn killed and twenty wounded. The dispatch adds that more government trooops deserted to the Insurgents today from Clenfuegos. Ths attitude of ths liberals, the increasing strength of the Insurgents and the ques tionable loyalty of many of the govern ment recruits have caused the managers of soms of the large business Interests to cable to the foreign heads of their compa nies their belief thst ths government of President Palma will be unable to cope with the Insurrection. t'aeasyt The dentist rubbed his Hands and as sured his new patient that his work could not be surpassed.

ICI1T ON RUSSIAN PREMIER ream of Old Beginis Art Demanding BiUrement of Etoljpin. STRONG OBJECTIONS TO REFORM SCHEME Party- Palare loslstlnrr tpoa Bf- tara ta Methods af Other Days Pro Bran Sot l.lked ay Liberals. ST. PETERSBURG. Sept. T. The open. Ing conflict between Premier Stolypln snd ths reactionists at court, due to the re- fual of the premier to acquiesce In ths abandonment ot the proposed reforms. Is reflected by the comment of the reactionary newspapers en the premier's note of Sep tember B, which are now openly demanding the retirement of M. Stolypln. The Svet, whoee court connections are known, while approving the Institution of drum-head courts-martial for the trlsl of polltlrsl offenders as 'a step In the rls:ht direction, does not conceal Its dissatisfac tion at the promise of reforms. The Russian Banner, organ of the Lenene of the Russian People snd other reaction ist organisations, demands the premier's resignation, presuming that he Is bidding for ths support of the moderate liberals "Instead of leaning only on true patriots." The paper adds: "M. Stolypln's declaration that no terrors can drive the government on the way of reaction Is nonsense of the rankest sort. Under such rHefO our ship esn never weather the storm." One Paster Praises Plan. Aslds from the Rossis, M. Stolypln's per- sonsl organ, onry Prof. Kovslevsky's Strena has a few words of commendation for the program of reforms which, the paper ssys, "was drsfted by M. Stolypln In eccordanre with the beet traditions of Russlsn liberalism," but with the moro radical papers the Strana finds fault with the estsbllshment of courts-martial for thu trial of political offenders, and other meas ures for. restoring order.' which, according to the Strana, embody the worst features of the policy of the old regime. The Rech recognises the fight which the premier Is making against being compelled to make a full surrender to the reaction ary Influences at court, but says his efforts are foredoomed to failure, and adds that he must -yield to the demand for the abolition of Parliament. Even the Novoe Vremya Is noncommittal. Moscow Xot Sympathetic. The attitude of the Moscow pVejis toward the premier's announcement of his policy Is not sympathetic. The leaders of the peaceful regeneration party, who are gath ering at Moscow after touring the country in the Interests of their party, have slight hope of the government winning the elec tions, not even with the aid of the reforms. To ths correspondent of the Associated Press at Moscow, M. Guchkoff, Count Heyden and others said they were well Impressed with the tone of ths premier's note, but unless ths distribution of lands and the removal of the restrictive Klaws bearing on the peasantry and old believers had a more sweeping effect than antici pated, the coming Parliament Is apt to be even more radical than the first one. The reopening ot the universities Is prac tically certain. Meetings ot students and the councils of various Institutions havs adopted the same view as dd the revolu tionary students of St. Petersburg yester dsy evening, namely, that it Is advisable to abanSon entirely all destructive tactics and to resume the studies, Instead of mak ing the universities centers for the revolu tionary movement. Mar Admit Jews to Arsny, 1 The Batjnoff commission, which Is elabor ating reforms ' for. the' army, has recom mended the admission of Jews te the officer corps, from which hitherto they have been excluded, except in. the capacity of sur geons. The recommendation, which is cou pled with the condition that the axaent of the officers ot the union to whom they are assigned must be secured in each case, will be presented to the emperor for ap proval and Is in the line of the policy to which Premier- Stolypln Is committed. It probably will be accepted, though the re centiy xorinea antl-jewlsn party is cam- Pofgnlng energetically against the proposl tlon and Is also much enraged at the deel slon of the minister of education providing for the unrestricted admission of Jews to the universities, which goes into effect at the opening of the next term. The Svet declares that if the Jews are unrestrictedly admitted In ten years they will have driven the Russians from the higher schools. The Jews heretofore have been' restricted to from three, to Ave per cent of the enrollment. Dispatches from Odessa and other cities In the south Russia pals report the return of many Jewish, families who went to Palestine under the Influence of the ZJon 1st movement. They complain of inability to exist there- owing to the oppression ot the Arabs. Attempt oai Kryshaaovsky's Life. It became known today that an attempt on the life of M. Kryshanovsky, vice min ister of the Interior, was made a few days ago. A revolutionist, attired as an army officer, appeared at the chancellory of the interior and asked for an audience of the vice minister, but while ths revolutionist was waiting for an answer a porter noticed that his uniform was Incorrect. Before the man could be arrested he became aware CAN DRINK TROUBLE That's Oae Way to Get It. Although tbey won't admit it many people who suffer from sick headaches and other ails get them straight from the coffee they drink and It Is easily proved Jf they're not afraid to leave It to a teat as in the case of a lady In Connellsvllle. ""I had been a sufferer from sick head aches for twenty-five years and anyone who has ever had a bad sick headache knows what I suffered. Sometimes three days In ths week I would havs to remain In bed, at other times ,( couldn't lie down the pain would be so great My life was a torture and It I went away from home fur a day I always cams back more dead than alive, "One day I was telling woman my troubles and she told me sns knew that It was probably coffee caused it.

"That's bow I cams to send out and get some Fueium and from that time I've never been without It for it suits my taste and I have been entirely cured of all my eld troubles. All I sLA was to leave oft the coffee and tea and drink well made Postum In Its place. This change has done me more good than everything else put together.

PURE FOOD DRAWING CARD Carefal Observer aad Oldest Inhab itant Make tbe Resali of the Booths. "I never had so much fun In one hour slnoe the day my grsndmother accident ally discharged grsndpa's revolver In the parlor and the cat took a header through the ' mirror," remarked the Csreful Ob server to the Oldest Inhabitant at the Pure Food show last evening over at the Audi torium. These two patrons of art and unadulterated nourishment took a tittle philosophic, pertgrlnstlon through the food show snd packed away packsgea of prov ender and buttermilk. The young woman at the Beatrice Creamery booth glanced ominously at' the Csreful Observer when he raised the fourth glasa of buttermilk to his lips, but when Manager Dean came along end gave the young woman the high sign a ray of morning sunshine broke over her face end she even refilled the visitor's glass. It was evident that the Csreful Observer was becoming addicted to butter milk. After taking their lesve of custodians. Anna Maystrtck and Msry Mstchs of the buttermilk booth, the Careful Observer and Oldest Inhabilsnt mesndered over to the A. Booth headquarters, where they found Sergeant Dempeey eating bivalves In civil ian clothes. After letting a few oysters down Into the buttermilk the Careful Ob server espied the Jetter malt extract free distribution. While the band plsyed "Take Em Away," the C. O. and O. I. took away several samples of the malt and then took on a consignment of coffee over at the Kamo booth. "I feel like making a speech," remarked the Careful Observer, upon whom the but termilk was beginning to work. The Oldest Inhabitant managed to get hie friend over to the retail merchants' heed quarters, where seats are provided for the weary. The Pure Food show being held at the Auditorium Is proving a popu'ar event.

This contemplstes the re moval of two of the equity court rooms from The Bee building and will not neceaai tate many changes In ths rooms. The second plan proposes the removal of the three equity courts to the court house, placing them In present court room No. 4, the bookkeepers' room and the scavenger room and ths removal of court room No. 4 to the old treasurer's office. A door would havs to bs placed between the bookkeep ers' room and the old private office of the treasurer, the latter being used as aa office by the judge. Judge Redlck's present office would be divided for offices for the other Judgss. The third plan calls for the removal of the county clerk to the county treasurer's office, the uss of ths old bookkeepers' room by ths auditor and of the scavenger depart ment by the county commissioners. The present commissioners' room would be given up to the county superintendent and the county clerk's office to the assessor. A number of property owners In May field, Halcyon heights and Bowling Oreen additions to the city called on the board and asked that a road bs put In from Dodge strsst to Benson, a half a mile east or what Is known aa Wolfs road. It would be one and three-quarter miles In length and tbe cost of grading It would amount te about $1700. Tha matter was referred to the committee en rosds. The question of raising the salary of Frank Dewey, deputy county clerk, to $128, waa settled by appointing hire custodian of voting machines at a salary of IS a month. His present salery as deputy dark le $100 a month. The board was of the oplnlon'eome oae ought te be employed the yesr around to look after the machines, and Mr. Dewey has considerable te do with them now.

FORESTS OF THE PHILIPPINES Rare Woods Crow la Abaodsoce Safflelent to Sopoty the Whole Cooatry. The natural growth of the Philippine forests Is computed by Major Ahern, chief of the InsuMr forestry bureau, to be l,nft.tve.n9 cubic feet three times the cut for W-0 in the entire United Btstes! At the present time, fully 99 per cent ut this nstursl growth Is going to waste, snd the world Is clnmorlng for the woods the ebonies, mahogsnles, Ironwoods, con- etructlon woods, all manner of preclo,- wowui, inai neen only monern mrimmy -maximum of machinery and a minimum ot handling to make Monte Chrlstos of the needed lumbermen. There are many millions of cubic feet In the forests of the Philippines that should be cut In order to properly thin out the , dense growth: for Instance, where there are three or tour trees grow ing on a space required for one, that one so freed would put on more good wood each year than the four together. The qstlon ee to whether three hundred or three thouasnd trees should remsln on sn acre Is where the real value of scientific forestry Is shown. . Then, too. there nre many more millions of feet which reach maturity and pass on to decay, never thrilling to the woodman's ax. There ere. however, very few companies In ths Philippines properly equipped to handle iarge logs, and without master mechanics, expert gang bosses in fact, all the skilled labor reo.ulred-snd without a full stock of ths best supply material, it would be ha sard oiib to move the Isrge logs which must be cut and brought te market If the forests sre to be properly exploited. A good price Is paid in Hongkong for every stick of timber from the Philippines, and the Amerirsn lumbermen, with - modern methods, psn solve the problem, and In so doing they will not only help to edu- cste the adaptable Filipino as to prac tical things, but will Insure him reatt wages, something unusual In Spanish days.
