FLEET ON RIVER IS REVIEWED President Views Forty Steamboats, II and red of Motorboiti, Row boats and Canoes and Scores of names and Dredges. PITTSBURGH. Ta., Oct. 31. President Taft's second swing around the circle came to an end here today In the most enthusiastic and by far the noisiest dem onstration ho has experienced In the 12,000 miles he has traveled. Pittsburgh celebrated the centennial of steam navi gation on western rivers and Mrs. Taft was the star attraction. According to the police, there were close to 150.000 persons on the wharf on tho Mononga Jhela river when the president was taken aboard the steamboat Virginia to re view the "fleet" anchored there. For five minutes after tho presidential automobile turned down to the river bank every whistle within miles was tied down. The noise died down long enough for Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth to chris ten a "replica" of the New Orleans, the first steamboat on western waters, which was navigated down, the Monon gahela and the Ohio 100 years ago by her great grandfather, Nicholas J. Roose ' velL There was quiet for a moment again while the president spoke briefly, prais ing former President Roosevelt for his successful efforts in behalf of the Pan uma canal, but when the Virginia, the flagship of the fleet, turned out Into the stream, It stnrted again. For more than an hour and a half the Virginia with the president In the pilot house steamed down the Monongahela, up the Allegheny, down the Ohio and then back to che wharf. Both banks of these rivers were lined with people. The h'lls to the south of the city, at times hidden by smoke, were covered and every craft In the three rivers had Its occupants. Members of the Taft party who have traveled with the president from coast to coast agreed that the crowd was the largest that has welcomed him anywhere on the trip. The house was ao deafening at times that the president was compelled to re tire to the pilot house to "hear himself think." He reviewed more than forty steamboats of assorted sizes and speeds, hundreds of motor boats, rowboats and canoes, and scores of barges and gov ernment dredges. It was such a fleet, the president said, as he had never seen before. Tonight Mr. Taft brought his visit to Pittsburgh to a close with a speech at the banquet of the local chamber of commerce, where ho listened to a p'lea for the repeal of tho Sherman anti-trust act by Congressman Martin W. Littleton of New York, member of the speclul house of representatives committee that at the special session investigated the United States Steel corporation. Mr. Lit tleton quoted both former President Roosevelt and Mr. Taft as having at one time or another been willing to have the Sherman law amended. He declared that there Is before the nation now In the solving of the trust question, the most difficult and far-reaching problem affecting Us Internal peuce and progress.

In a letter to voters you say the people "have a right to know and should know" about their candidate. Information has just been made public that in 1904, when you were sole manager for P. E. McKillip for congress, the colossal sum of $26,054.29 was checked out of McKillip's bank account to pay his campaign expenses and an additional $12,000 spent for which no . checks were issued a total of $38,054.29. Dan V. Stephens, you made no public accounting of this tremen dous slush fund and palpably violated the corrupt practices law. In 1908 and again in 1910 you managed the campaign for the late James P. Latta for congress and he has told people that after drawing all his salary he would still be short of what it cost him to be elected. If so, you must have spent for him more than $30,000 and repeatedly violated the corrupt practices act. A great scandal has been produced in Wisconsin because Senator Stephenson expended $107,000 to get to be senator, yet at the rate you used the check book for McKillip a. state-wide campaign in all the six districts of Nebraska would have called for $156,325.74. Dan V. Stephens, how did you expect McKillip to get his money back in congress? Dan V. Stephens, you are spending money like water in your present campaign. Whose money are you spending? Is it money left over from the unfortunate McKillip's check book? Is it money that can be traced to Latta's check book? If you use a check book for yourself now as lavishly as used for McKillip, how do YOU expect to get the money back in congress ? Dan V. Stephens, tell us about the check book. SEEKING TO AVOID DISASTER Wickersham Presents Government View of Tobacco Case. TRUST CHARGES BAD MOTIVES Insists Southern Attorney, General Willi to Make Iteeord of Trnst Dusting? for Campaign Purposes. NJ3W YORK, Oct. 31. "It will be a tre mendous calamity to the Industries of this country If some means cannot be found to reorganise the tobacco combina tion by avoiding the ruin and wreck that will be certain to follow a rocelvershlp." was the declaration of Attorney General Wickersham today before the United States circuit court. Mr. Wickersham this afternoon began his anrument for the government In the hearing on the reorganliatlon of the to bacco trust. "I realize the situation which con fronted the government ani ,the court in this case," the attorney niieral con tinued. '"I have done nil In my power to aid In bringing about a new condition without resort to a receivership und I have conferred frequently with your honors and counsel for the defendants to that end. "I would have been entirely untrue to my truBt If I had fulled to take that view of this case and extended my powers toward that end." Sympathy with All Interests. In opening his statement to the court In the tobneco case today, the attorney general of the t'nlted States Raid he con fessed "a great deal of sympathy" with the independent tobacco Interests fighting the reorganization plan and that he did not feel much concern over extraordinary fears expressed by tho American Tobacco company representatives. "I can readily see," be continued, "how men who have been fighting others for years should come here asking the court to cripple the enemies and hand their property over to him. Thatvhowever, Is not the function of this court and In such case as this we must turn a deaf ear to considerations thut might appe:il to our human sense, that it may not movo our legal Judgment." In approaching the task of disintegrat ing the trust the attorney general said the first subject of thought was as to the size of the units to be taken from the trusts. In this connection he quoted from court decisions holding that "magni tude does not constitute a monopoly." That tho general plan of reorganiza tion is a purely practical commercial one, the attorney general expressed belief. Tho objection that the proponed division of brands would not permit of competition he aappeared to believe unfounded. More tiafeitaarda Seeileil. "We think of this plau Is safeguarded that It will restore competition," he said. "We are dealing in a measure in conjecture. I have for that reason asked that for a period of five years the government reserve the right to seek furtner relief. "We should not lose tho doors of this court to the government In case what we now hope will occur should not develop. If it should lie made to appear later that the American Tobacco com pany was so powerful without resorting to devices of the past that It actually prevented competition in the tobacco trade any way, und be demonstrated that the company should be divided again, we should be given an oppor tunity to come into court and act." How do you do that?" a.iked Judge Xoyes. "I would d'l it by an injunction of this court, and If that is done for u period of three or five years I believe It would be long enough," the attorney general replied. "One feature of this tomb nation has cauted mora complaint. In my opinion, thun all others," continued Mr. Wick ersham, "and that Is the United Cigar Stolen company. Thut has been the hand of the trust reauchlng out over the country to liaruss the domestic trade. If thut concern is cut lo. ,o in this plan, you will do more than anything elho run do to make this plan of reorganiza tion acceptable to the people of this country." J js.-ph H.

Mrs. Klizabeth I.owe Watson, president of tho Woman's Suffrage association, ad dressed the convention and told of the victory for woman suffrage In her state, giving much credit for the outcome to thu Women's Christian Temperance union. Stephenson Did Not Know How Much Money He Spent MILWAUKEE. Oct. 31.-8o little atten- tion was given by Senator Isaac Stephen son to the amount of money he was spending In his primary campaign for the I'nlled mates senatorshlp nomination In lltoS that he had to employ an attorney to find out what was spent. It. A. J. L'phum so testified before tho senatorial Investigating committee today. Mr. I'p ham, who acted as the senator's attor ney, said lie round tne total expenses to be $111,385, or about Ji.000 more than was previously given. One of the charges; which the United States senate committee Is Investigating is that Senator Stephenson failed to com ' "v with the Wisconsin corrupt prae t.es act, which (-euulres u detailed ac counting of campaign expenses. Mr. I'P hum admitted thut his report technically was not in accordance with the statutes, but it compiled with custom, he declared, and even if tho law was violated It merely would threaten a fine without af fecting the senator's tenure of office.

The ' null" soji siwiuh WS fSFs ' - ALDRICH SPEAKS AT NELIGH Governor Replies to Recent Utter ances of William J. Bryan. LEGISLATURES ARE CONTRASTED Hallrond Commission Hill Pavrs Teople Ten Million Hollars Pro icresslve Democrats Asked to Vote with Republicans. NEUail, Neb., Oct. 81. (Special.) A large audience greeted Oovernor Aldrlch last evening. The meeting was opened by singing "America," In which the audi ence Joined. The governor was Introduced by ex-Congressman lioyd and took occa sion to thank the people of Antelope. county Tor the handsome majority of over 1,000 votes given him. The presence of a large number of women wus especially gratifying to the speaker, representing, us they do, the home which Is the founda tion of American greatness. The larger portion of Oovernor Aldrlch's address was devoted to analysis of the pica of W. J. Hryan to republicans to vote the democratic ticket. He said Mr. Hryau urged tho republicans to vote the debuicratic ticket and for I.a Follette, but If this was done what would become ot lA Follette? Mr. Bryan was eulogized as a man and orator, but his course In the present campaign Is the one followed In every previous one, a plea with republic ans to Join the democrats. Tho trouble, however, Is this: Tho progressive demo crats In Nebraska, including Mr. Hryan, are clearly outside the breastworks, tho party being in control of the J. C. Dahl mau crowd. In contrast to appeals of Mr. Liryan, the governor said, the problem Is, when you cast your votes that they be for mon In Its truest sense, and meas ured by this standard the republican party of Nebraska awaits the result in confidence. Legislatures Are Contrasted. In viewing the history ot the demo cratic legislature In the last four years the statement was mu'de that not one moral measure was passed by the demo crats without the necessity of republican votes. Bryan asked for pledges from his audiences for the Initiative and refer endum, and It is a good measure, but two years ago a democratic legislature with a working majority refused to pass it. The administration of Oovernor Sheldon and the republican legislature was given attention und mention of the reform measures noted. Including the freight and express reduction, the J-cent passenger bill, the railway commission and the pure for.d law. The democratic party wus aguln challenged to point to a single pro gressive measure adopted by the purty thut did not need the support of repub lican members of the legislature to enact It. The. democrats condemned the last epublican legislature for extravugance, yet In two yeurs bus Increased the ap- 'proprlatlon , by S:!.000,000. lU ferrlng at length to the railway commission Mil tne governor fald that It hud saved the peo pie of Nebraska IiQ,iOO,0". In closing. Mr Aldrlch spoke warmly of tho blah character of Senator L.a Follette, but at the same time warning his audience against unjust criticism of President Taft and said that many of the measures and ucts of the preM-nt national sdnilnlatra tlon should have the warmest approval. Taft's Itrrord la (iul. No president, not excepting Theodore rtoosevelt, has done a greater work In prosecuting the trusts and lllegui com bination, and no greater or more benefi cent work has be-n undertaken thun the peace treaties that have beon negotiated by ITesldent Taft. Finally the governor Invited Ihe pro gressive democrats to come over to the republican party, the party tiiut dors things. The audience was both attentive and euthu:Aastlc. bolero Amons) ltoal Mcols.

The national as sembly voiced Us gratification over tho edicts recently Issued by the throne, and expressed tho belle! that tho situa tion In China would be improved If thn promises were fulfilled. President of the assembly, Prince Shin, Hsu, submitted a message In which tha prince regent. Chun, assured the assem bly that yesterday's Imperial ironounca menls would bo faithfully earned out. . The general situation continues tense. Tho Manchus fear the investment of the capital by tho rebels, whllo the Chines are anxious over tho possibility of a massurre by Manchus. Both parties are appealing to tho legations for protection. Premier China: Is using his Influence to curb any tendency toward violence. It Is doubtful If the Imperial edicts will serve to stay the rebellion. The revolu tionists arc skeptical of tho good faltU ot the throne. Slanchn Hole at an I'.nd. Today s edicts Indicate thut oven though thu dynasty survives Munchu rule Is at u end. Tho transfer even of the cabinet offices to nutlve Chinese Is granted and the throne swears that "hereafter Man chus and Chincso shall bo regarded equally," meunlug ths.t the elaborate system of Manchu pensions which are now paid to practically every member of the race will be discontinued and th Manchus left to earn a living by their, own enterprise. All today's edicts, llkq that ot yester day, are written In the first parson, as coming from the lnfunt emperor himself. This Is unusual and Is apparently a de vice adopted by the throne's advisers lit a pathetic, attempt to create among th people a feeling of personal loyalty for their sovereign. Tha edicts maku a complete capitula tion to the demands of the national as scmbly, and even go so fur as to offer extravaguul iralse to tua rebels for bringing about the great reforms which are promised. Surrender Is Abject. The throne abjectly acknowledges Its Incapacity, pleads Ignorance ot affairs, asks that its lapses be pardoned and re quests tho assistance and advice of ull Chinese. Finally It makes a hysterical effort to rally Chinese and Manchus alike to the royal standard by hinting at grava foreign dangers which it thinks should b factu by a united China. in his struggle for existence, the In fant emperor even condemns many of his own closest relatives. The present official dom, he declares, has not sought th In terests of the people, but only Us own pockets. The revolutionists are unimpressed hy the flood ot edicts from the emperor. They declare that the dynasty's partial surrender has cetno too lute. Moreover, they do not trust the throne, regarding their present position as too strong for yielding to promises which they feel ro lnclnteic. The revolutionists point out that uch edicts as thtso, wherein the thrones own appointees und relatives ar calkd thieves and scoundrels, do not tend to encourage confidence. Whai th edicts state regarding tho methods of the pres ent administration Is of courso admitted by the revolutionists, but tho throne's plea of Ignorance hereto is regarded as Incredible. Muuchua Alar "tart Massacre. liut whllo the edicts have apparently fulled of their hoped-for effect in con ciliating the rebels, they have stirred up a must formidable opposition from a new source. The announcement that most of the Manchu officeholders must go and thut all Manchu ponrluiis will e cut off lininedlutely, produced a pronounced dis affection In the ranks of tho Manchus, und many members ot this race at once began talking of a massacre ot tovenge. There were lad. cations already today that these proposals would find support, par ticularly among the younger Manchu princes, who will now be stripped of their high office and unablo longer to exploit their positions.
