Now that the state officers have succeeded in raiding the gambling dens at French Lick and West Baden, the next desirable result is to bring about convicltlons and with the tangible evidence that the officers have In the way of gambling paraphernalia there should be no difficulty. Whether gambling in the future will be eliminated from the hotel casinos of those resorts is a Question. The operators have been defying . the law so long that it la reasonable to believe that oio raid will not terminate the evil. Unlike many gambling resorts and in fact worst of them, there has never seen even a slight attempt to keep them under a veil of secrecy. They have been as open as the hotels themselves and the feeling of security which the owners have manifested has indicated for a long time that there must have been some sort of understanding between them and the authorities. What was accomplished by the state officers a few days ago could have been don years ago. Never before was a sincere effort made to put a stop to the Monte Carlos of the West, although stories of the heavy winnings ana heavy losses have been told in the press at frequent Intervals. Men and women from cities of the country who have been unable to gratify their passion for gambling elsewhere have spent long seasons at French Lick and it is unnecessary to state that they were not there for their health. The Hagerstown fair which is conducted under the auspices of the Wayne County Fair Association, is to be greater and better than ever this year. Richmond has failed In the fair project many times. Hagerstown's enterprising men have conquered many obstacles and are determined that the fair association shall continue to live. The enterprise is worthy of the hearty endorsement and support of the farmers and other classes of citizens throughout the country and the Pal ladium hopes that th!s year's fair will be so eminently successful that the future of the association will be assured. The dates are July 24, to 27 Inclusive. Lines suggested by the One Dollar prize offer, for news. A dollar for news!

TAGGART REFUSES
TO GIVE UP PUCE "Smiling Tom" Says There Has Been no Raid on His Place at French Lick, BLAMES HEARST FOR- IT HE SAYS THAT HOTEL HAS NOT AND WILL NOT TOLERATE GAMBLING IN ANY FORM ON . ITS GROUNDS. IPubllshers Press French Lick Springs, Ind., July 5. Thomas Taggart, chairman of the Democratic national committee, gave out the following statement in reply to the demand that he resign the national chairmanship of the Democratic committee. Among other things he said: "There has been no raid, nor attempted raid n the French Lick Springs hotej, nor has such a thing been thought of save by Mr. Hearst and his correspondents. A building owned by the French Lick Springs company, wholly disconnected from the hotel property, was leased to a party to be used for billiards and bowling alley with a strong clause against gambling In the lease. After a time this tenant permitted gambling. We brought suit for possession on ac count of the breach of that provision in lease and recovered judgment He appealed the case and it is pending for trial in present term of court. The state authorities have supplemented our efforts to recover possession by raiding that building, and that is all there Is to the grossly sensational publications. The French Lick Springs Hotel company has not, and will not tolerate gambling in any form on its premises. This Is attested by the court records which show our efforts to suppress It. The proposition that I should resign is preposterous. It de serves and will receive no attention." MORE AFFIDAVITS FILED TOTAL NUMBER IS NOW 72 Attorney-General Miller Accedes to Slight Postponement of Gambling Cases at French Lick John Kern Talks of Company's Damage. fPubllshers Press Paoll, Ind., July 6. Judge Thomas Busklrk granted a continuance of the French Lick and West Baden hotel cases till July 13 on the request of the hotel companies which was acceeded to by Attorney General Miller on the promise that in the meantime no gambling would be allowed at either place. Additional affidavits were filed by the state against the attendants of the Casinos arrested when the raids were made. The total nnumber ol affidavits against them is 72. John W. Kern, of counsel for the hotel companies during the argument called attention to the damage done the two properties valued at $2,000,000 on account of publication of the raids and insisted that the hotel companies had no control of the Casinos whatever that the Casinos were leased to third persons for a term of years and that the hotel companies brought suit to cancel these leases on finding that gambling was being allowed in the Casinos, and that these suits are pending in the Orange county courts. Attorney General Miller said these suits brought to cancel the leases were jokes. Melee in Chinatown. Philadelphia. July 5.

ACTION BEGUN AT FINDLAY Ohio Suit Brought Against the Stand ard Oil Company Accusing It of Tryiig to Monopolize Production of Crude Petroleum. Publishers' Press Findlay, O., Juiy 5. Information was filed in probate court here against the Standard Oil company and John D. Rockefeller. The information allege that In 1882, Rockefeller combined individual partnership corporations into the Standard Oil company. The purpose of this company, the information asserts, was to monopolize the production, sale and transportation of crude petroleum and by its products. This it is alleged, was a conspiracy against trade and a violation of the anti-trust law. Since July 6, 1903, the information declares and at all times since, the Standard Oil company has been operating In this county through subsidiary companies known as the Buck eye Pipe Line company, and the Man hattan Oil company. The probate Judge decided that he has jurisdiction in the case. The Standard's attorney filed a mo tion to the effect that the probate court had no jurisdiction.

AT LAST He Gives Orders to Officers to Prevent Further Disorders by Troops. TWO GENERALS DISGRACED ONE OF THEM IS SAID TO BE"" SCI ON OF AMERICAN NAMED GORDON THE REVOLUTIONISTS ARE REJOICING. Publishers' PressJ St. Petersburg, July 5. Emperor Nicholas has taken the almost un precedented step of publicly directing Grand Duke Nicholas Nlcholalevltch, who commands the forces in the mili tary district of St. Petersburg, to investigate and take measures to stop disorders" among troops. Prince assllchlkoff, commander of the guard corps, was relieved from duty and orders were Issued dismissing in dis grace General Ozeroff, commander of the first guard division, and General Gadon, commander of the Preobrajensky regiment, the first battalion of which was recently disgraced for ex pressing sympathy with parliament and protesting against doing police duty. Gadon is said to be a descendant of an American named Gordon, the name having been Russianized by a lapse of time. All attempts to purge the army of the spirit of disloyalty, now that It has Invaded the hampered regiments of the guard, will probably prove futile. No isolation of troops will suffice to prevent spread of the con tagion. While a majority of the troops probably are still faithful, the under mining of the military supports of the government is proceeding very rapid ly. The revolutionists are rejoicing at the success of what they regard as being the final phase of the work of preparing for the coming revolution. A further extension of the agrarian disorders, accompanied by the burn ing of a manor house, Is reported from the provinces of Penza, KamentsPodolsk and Poltava and the districts of Bogorodltsk and Karsk. The xemstvo of the province of Tula is bankrupt owing to the refusal of peasants to pay their taxes. Members of the "Group of Toil" in parliament are secretly elaborating a plan to force matters to a head. As the first step they propose that the lower house adopt a resolution declaring the country is not bound . to pay its obligation to the government so long as the emperor refuses to yield to the demands of parliament. It the Constitutional Democrats decline to join them in the program of repudla tion the "Group of Toll" proposes to issue a manifesto to the country. The purpose plainly is to compel the government to attempt to dissolve parliament and thus force a rupture. The Issues of five newspapers of this city were confiscated Wednesday night. Over 200 papers in the interior were seized during the past two weeks. From Gambling to Murder. Bluefield, W. Va., July 5. Samuel Farloway, a night watchman for the Pike colliery company, and John Raw son and Bert Jones engaged in a fight over a gambling game at Matewan. Farloway was badly beaten and left for dead. He revived, secured a rifle and started in pursuit of his assail ants. He arrived at some camp cars on a siding a mile east and saw two men standing In a car door. Taking them to be Rawson and Jones he opened fire, shooting Armster Taylor and Harry Hoskins, negro laborers engaged fn track work. Hoskins died almost instantly. Taylor was shot through the neck and will die. Farlo way is in Jail. Judge In China. Washington, July 5. Attorney Gen eral Lebbeus R. Wilfley of the Philip pine islands was appointed to the. Judgeship of the United States court in China, which is to replace In a large measure the present consular court Judge Wilfley Is a native of St. Louis, Mo., and in 1891 was ap pointed a Judgft of the court of first instance of the Philippines. A few months later he was advanced to the attorney generalship of the Islands The post Is well salaried, the yearly compensation . being fixed at $10,000, with a liberal allowance for traveling expenses. Borges Sentenced. Boston, July 5. Ferdinand E. Borges, formerly of Indiana, and one of the promoters of the Ubero tjjantation company, was sentenced torve from 12 to 15 years in state prison i6r larceny and conspiracy. Borges was convicted on 73 counts of larceny and one. of conspiracy in connection with the affairs of the Ubero company. He was indicted with former Congressman William D. Owen of Indiana, who has not yet been arrested. Wynne's Resignation. Washington, July 5. The resigna tion of Captain Robert F. Wynne, U. K. Marine Corps, was accepted by Secretary Bonaparte.
