GLORIOUS LARCENY BRYAN'S NEW CRIME
It Is a Higher Form of Grand Larceny, He Says and Law Protects It.
SISTER OF MILLIONAIRE REAL ESTATE OPERATOR SUES JAPANESE FOR DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER.
ATTACK ON WALL STREET.
GAMBLING IN STOCKS AND FARM PRODUCTS, HE SAYS, IS THE WORST FORM OF THE CRIME HE TOLD NEW YORKERS.
New York. Feb. 3. Taking the eighth commandment as hie text, William Jennings Bryan pointed out to the Civic Forum last nipht the possibilities of larceny in violation of the law and what he said was of si ill greater importance larceny through the operation of the law. Mr. Dryan declared that, while the law recognized two general forms of larceny, petit larceny and grand larceny, there had been a disposition recently to subdivide the greater crime. "So now," he added, "we are inclined to think of stealing as petit larceny grand larceny and glorious larceny. So general has become the tendency to overlook rescality in amazement at. the genius of the man who has stolen a million that it. has been suggested that the commandment be amended to read. 'Thou shalt. not steal on a small scale.' " larceny through operation of the law was possible, he said, if the laws were unjust or permitted an unfair advantage to any class of citizens. Watered stocks and fictitious capitalizations were placed by the speaker as among the forms of polite larceny. Attacks Wall Street. During the course of his speech Mr. Bryan attacked Wall street. He said in part: And now, at the risk of being accused of sacrilege. I venture to introduce to the stock exchange the commandment which we have been considering. I am aware that here in New York the stock exchange is regarded with a certain amount of veneration and thai, many who vehemently denounce gambling in a back room where winnings and losses arc small, remain strangely silent in the presence of the enormous games that are played upon the stock market, often with loaded dice. Gambling la oius of the worst of vices, and gambling in stocks and in farm products is the most destructive form in which the vice appears. Measiwed by

diana in convention assembled for th purpose of electing two delegates an, two alternate delegates to the Republican national convention at Chicago to be convened June 10. !!. hereby adopt the following resolutions: 1. Resolved. That the past record of the Republican party during the fie decades of its history commends itscll to the thinking voters of this mighty republic. The great party of Lincoln. C-arlield. McKinley and Roosevelt is alive to the needs and interests of Unpeople, is safe, progressive and prac
tical, and in its matchless leadership and from its leadership to rank and file of its membership repie.-.ents the best thought 2Jid action of eighty million of free people, working out their destiny under the institutions of free, popular. Republican government. We stand for the principles of equality before the law, the right of all our citizens to transact business without being hampered and preyed upon by powerful and unlawful business and financial interests to perform their proper functions and duties without persecution or unjust hindrance. To this position so manifestly right and fair as to be undeniable but universally admitted, the Republican consistency holds and moves. We commend the railroad rate law as a wise and statesman like measure counseled by a
Republican president and placed upon j the statute books by a Republican con-' gress as a law which makes equally available to all of our citizens the pub-1 lie ways of transportation and the same, we believe, is received with pop- '; ular and universal approval. The strong arm of the republic under the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt is j bared for the defense and interest of j the weak. It has reached across the sea and brought together warring nations and made much lor international peace and added new and greater prestige to our nation in international councils and in the eyes of the world. Therefore, be it Resolved, That we reaffirm and again express our confidence in the wisdom, stalwart integrity and devotion to the right of the great leader of our party and nation, Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States, the champion of equality, justice and the "square deal." Reselved, That .we take great pleasure in indorsing the effort and accomplishments of our representatives in the United States senate, Albert J. Reveridge and James J. Hemenway, who have unswervingly and
patrioticly espoused and championed the principles and policies for which our party has been laboring. They
have always been on the right side of public questions and have served their constituents with the utmost fidelity and loyalty and with signal ability.
:i. Resolved, That we approve the administration of civil affairs in the state of Indiana. We command and
feel justly proud of the official acts of
our governor, the stato officers and of
the general assembly as representatives of the advancement toward an even more wholesome and better administration of public affairs.
4. Resolved, That we most cordially
and enthusiastically indorse the candidacy of Hon. James E. Watson for the nomination for the office of governor of the state of Indiana, and pledge him our earnest and undivided support and we ask the Republicans of
he state to give him their support as
one especially well fitted to lead them
in this campaign and fill the position
to which he aspires with great credit
to himself and the people whom he of
fers to serve. We recognize in the vice president of the United States one of Indiana's most prominent men, Charles W. Fairbanks, as a wise and conservative leader, a man who by long years of experience in public life is familiar with all great public questions and therefore, eminently fitted for the high position to which he aspires. We, therefore, earnestly indorse his candidacy and instruct the delegates chosen by this convention to represent the district in the coining national Republican convention to work and vote for his nomination for president of the United States, so long as there is a possibility of his nomination. We also pledge our undivided -npport to Prof. J. H. Tomlin, for superintendent of public instruction, and to Judge David A. Myers for the nomination for the Judge for the appellate court of Indiana.
MEREDITH IS GIVES SMALL AMOUNT Gets $18.25 for Returning Prisoners.
