The denouement was precipitated when Delegate T. C. Llewellyn, of Linton, spoke of the top coal questir. Llewellyn criticised the decision of the national officer of the miners' union in the top coal question, and by inference declared that the national officers, including Mitchell, were Hot above suspicion. Mitchell Makes a Hot Iteply. The words were not dead on the speaker's lips before President Mitchell was on his feet. lie had been fitting at one side of the hall as a spectator of the events of the convention. Mitchell said that Llewellyn had been the recipient of credentials of the Industrial Workers of the World, and possessed them at this time. He said that Llewellyn was allied with the Western Federation, and as its ally "was doing all in ids- power to break the supremacy of the United Mine Workers In the Indiana field. The denunciation of President Mitchell created a Bensatlon. When he finished he was fcheered to the echo. Rose 'Polya1 on a Rampage. Terre Haute, Ind., Oct. 25.

Shelbyville, Ind.. Oct. 25. "Will
the infant son of the Rev. Mr. and
Mrs. II. O. Pritchard be called Harold
Oris Pritchard. after its father, or will It be called Pailey Alonzo Pritchard.
after its two grandfathers?" is a ques
tion which is puzzling Mrs. Pritchard
on one sifle and the 7w members of
the First Christian church on the oth
er. Pritchard is pastor of the church
and the members of the congregation
desire that the month-old child be
called Harold Otis, after its father,
and they are using this name when the
fcabe is brought into their presence.
The mother of the child insists that It shall be called Lailey Alonzo, the name being taken from the child's
grandfathers. Hailey Pritchard and
Alonzo Byers, both of Franklin. The question is far from settled, and It may be that the boy will be called Harold Otis Pailey Alonzo Tritchard,
before ft settlement is made.

New York, Oct. 25. The first meeting of the newly-appointed executive committee of the Democratic state committee was held at the Victoria hotel, the Democratic state headquarters. William R. Hearst and Lewis S. Chanler also were present. At the conclusion of the session Arthur A. McL-ean, treasurer of the state committee, and an ex-olhcio member of the executive committee, said that the
committee met for the purpose of organizing, and had done so and that it
had received reports which were read from various districts of the state. These showed, he said, that the Hearst strength up-state was more than had been expected. Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany leader, prophesied a majority of 74,000 for Hearst in Greater New York. Expects to Say Something Later. During the day Timothy L. Woodruff, chairman of the Republican state committee, and State Committeeman William Barnes, Jr., of Albany, talked with thirty-one of the sixty county chairmen of the Republican party throughout the state. The various chairmen reported thf, conditions ia their home counties. Asked what the
reports were. Woodruff said: "I don't care to discuss them." "Will you say anything about the political situation generally throughout the state?" Woodruff was asked. He replied: "I expect that about 9 o'clock on the night of the election I shall say something" and this is all he would say now. Hearst Talks to Italian. Demonstrative welcomes were given William R. Hearst at meetings addressed by him in Manhattan and P.rooklyn. The largest meeting was arranged by Italian-American voters at Cooper Union. The nominee was
cheered heartily upon his entrance to the big hall and when he rose to speak. Carlisle Who Rolts Hearst., John Carlisle, of Watertown, a former member of the state Democratic committee, made a statement in which he declared he will not support Hearst. Carlisle said that two years hence nearst will run for president on the Independence League ticket, and that the duty of every Democrat for the preservation of the party is not only to defeat him, but to bury him.

i one of the most successful in years, j Th "Commoner"' was accompanied on
his trip by his son William J. Bryan, Jr., who is a student at Culver (Ind.) military academy. At Delphi Bryan made quite an extended talk on what

The "big" meeting was at the Rink and Bryan later addressed an overflow gathering at the court house. At the Rink Bryau denounced government by injunction. A committee of Ohio Democrats met Colonel Bryan at Fort Wayne to escort him into Ohio, where he begins a three days' tour today.

2 He Cat't Go Ownership. Dallas, Tex.. Oct. 25. At a banquet tendered by the citizens of Dalles to the Texas legislature Senator Culberson made the first pronounced public utterance heard in this state against government ownership since Bryan proposed the scheme two months ago. The cheering throughout his remarks was general, amounting to a demonstration. He said Democracy must stand against paternalism and centralization, as a fundamental principle, and that government ownership involved the most advanced and aggravated form of paternalism ever offered under a free government.

Flores Magoon, ex-head of the St. Louis Mexican junta, were found in possession of alleged revolutionists who recently were arrested here. It now develops that Captain Jiminez Castro, of the Mexican army, who was arrested at a meeting of the El Paso junta, was a Mexican spy. Mexican Consul Mallen. of this city, is receiving scores of letters signed "The Junta," threatening him with death for his activity against the revolutionists.

I noticed a few with silver and jet black spangles arranged in stripes, and very effective they were too. The models of the gowns to be made of these startling materials show a bodice with a deep pointed front cut quite high across the bust, but in a deep V shape in the back, some of them being more remarkable for daring than good taste. But this, we are told, is to be a feature of evening dresses the coming season. I went to see the new play "Clothes," iu which are displayed all the finest of the gowns and wraps which will be worn the coming season. I may say that, so far as coloring is concerned, there is nothing new, but some of the dres3es were simply marvels of art There were some fancy costumes where every kind of thing that the wearer fancied was worn, notably a Creek gown in white and gold, which made me wish for the "brave days of old" again. But the wraps were mostly in the shape of long boas made of black, white or brown malines. These weFe

Welcomed to Cortland with. Great Acclaim by a Rif; Crowd. Cortland, X. Y.. Oct. 2o. With a profus;on of red fire, with brass bands
and with much cheering Charles E. Hughes, the Republican candidate for
governor, was welcomed in Cortland.
He was met at the station by a crowd which extended for more than a block up the street leading to the business
section of the city, and was escorted to his hotel by a procession of citizens. At night Hughes made two addresses to audiences which tested
the capacity of the halls and which constantly interrupted him with applause.
After leaving Elmira in the mornrig Hughes continued to tour the south
ern tier, touching many points where
Hearst recently appeared. He spoke
at Waverly in the opera house there,
and then stopped for a brief five-minute speech from the rear platform of his car at Owesro. At Whitnev's Toint
Hughes made a five-minute address
and at Marathon spoke a few words tc
a crowd at the station.
At Cortland he renewed the pledges
to which he has sriven so much promi
nence in his speeches of late, and when he declared he would be "the governor of all the people" was loudly applauded, and again when he said: "I have
promised nothing in this campaign
which I cannot perform."

tional Cash Register plant Tuesday. A surgeon was near and dressed the injury and put the man's head and shoulders in a plaster cast. He is still improving, gaining in strength, and indications are that he will recover. In the event that he does it will be the first case of kind in the history of this part of the state.

CHOKER DEFENDS TAMMANY
Says It Is a Case of Giving a Dog a BaJ
Name, Dublin, Oct. 2o. In the course of an interview published in The Telegraph Richard Croker. referring to Tammany Hall and its alleged bad reputation, said: "It is a case of giving a dog a bad name. If any one connected with the organization. however insignificant, his position, does anything dishonorable Tammany is blamed. The reformers never did anything for N'ew York. The great bridges, the elevated railroad, the public buildings and everything are the work of Tammany, if there was corruption why did not the district attorney prosecute somebody. "Tammany Hall has succeeded entirely on its merits. It is the most Democratic institution in the world, if anything is wrong with it then something is wrong with the people themselves. It stands not only for the poor man. but also for the foreigner newly landed on American shores. It believe?-, as against the Republican party, that the foreigner should receive the benefits of the American constitu-

The Hartford Life Insurance company has not ceased to do business except as to the "safety fund," but is doing an active business in many forms of insurance.

CHIFFON CXOTII D3ESS. long and fluffy and tied with ribbon to match In immense bows. Black chantllly lace and fine braiding in contrasting colors were employed to bring out the form of the garment. Frogs of the prettiest shapes were used, and here and there a bit of metal braid was seen to pick out the design. There would be a woeful hiatus if the castle braids failed us. At the play Miss George wore some dainty girlish gowns of pale blue and white silk and of crepe de chine in the first acts, while in the last ones she had a marvel in soft thin stuff of some kind in a delicate blond, just the color of her hair, with a pink slip of satin beneath, and there were large wreaths
of white lace applique along the skirt through which the satin showed. The number of fine ruffles of lace and other fluff about the bottom of the dress I cannot tell, but it was all beautiful. In the shops colored broadcloth iu all the light colors and black are in high favor. I notice the old new plan of having bretelles on the waist. They broaden the shoulders and make the waist appear more slender. The illustration shows a pale hello cloth, with four flat bands around the skirt and bretelles on the waist, each edged with a fancy pattern in soutache braid.

In the richer materials for street suits velutina has a uew variety, called paon, or peacock, which gives some idea of the metallic effects. In fact, everything that can be given a semblance of metallic gleam gets it. Even the lining silks have it. The plainer models of the skirts and the short waisted effects in coats make the silks necessarily heavier than they have been, so the lining silks are thick and beautiful in themselves. Mr. Belding. head of the American Silk association, who has for many years devoted himself to the extension of the silk industry of this country, told me that tho day of thin ilk has passed.
