HELD FOR LARCENY Charles Brant Faces Second Charge When Released From Jail Today. FARMER MADE COMPLAINT Charles Brant, who was sent to the county jail some time ago after being convicted In police court of vagrancy, was re-arrested this afternoon at the county jail charged with petit larceny, in an affidavit sworn out by Henry Toschlag. a farmer. It is alleged Brant had been stealing merchandise from buggies and wagons along Main street, during the winter, and was arrested for this some time ago. He was sent down for vagrancy In order to hold him, as there -as no case at that time. It is alleged that he took some gro ceries and dry goods from a rig of Hen ry Toschlag, which was standing on Couth Sixth street, near Main street, January 15 and other rigs before that affair. Brant has confessed the theft and will probably come up in police court tomorrow morning and enter a plea of guilty. Victor Hugo.

FIGHTS FOR RELEASE FROM INSANE ASYLUM

Harold Binney, a wealthy member of the New York bar and also widely known in Philadelphia, who is confined in the Friends' asylum for the Insane at Frankfort, a suburb of Philadelphia, and who is making every effort to be released, declaring his sanity, lie has figured in a number of escapades, once running his yacht ashore at Atlantic City and causing the giatest consternation. He waded through the surf to dry land among the bathers and shortly after, on the petition of his sister, a commission was appointed to inquire into his sanity. His friends, however, declare he is sane, but eccentric. PRESIDENT IAPT GREATLY WORRIED Situation in Ohio and New York Is Causing Him Uneasiness. EVENTS WATCHED SHARPLY WADE ELLIS CALLS ON TAFT TO LEARN WHY THE PRESIDENT DISAVOWED SPONSORSHIP FOR HIM IN OHIO. (American News Service) Washington. March 8. The politi cal situation in New York and Ohio j are "providing sources of deep concern to the administration. Following ' I President Taft's action in taking a i hand in New York republican affairs, ! many conferences have been held ; j here at the white house; at the office of Senator Root and at Senator Root's 1 home. Some of the leading politicians of New York have boon cal'ed into consultation. As much attention, if not more has been given to the Ohio j situation. Wade If. Ellis, new chair- ' man of the Ohio republican committee, who is on his way back to Ohio i today had a long talk with Taft just I before his departure. The principal J topics, it was learned today, were the ' president's recent letter to U. S. Marshall Davis of Cleveland, disavowing the sponsorship for Ellis, and its poj litical effect, particularly the attitude i of leading Ohio politicians toward the ; matter. The administration, which from the first has closely watched the situation at Albany, particularly with reference to the investigation of bribery charges against Senator Allds, is known to stand for the cleaning of the slate in New York, believing that in this alone lies the possibility of the future republican success. H. C. Hasemeier has returned from his New York trip. CATCHER SN0DGRASS PLEASES MGR. McGRAW Fred Snodgrass, the famous back stop, who is now practicing with the Giants at Marlin, Texas.

This democrat said that Thomas Taggart and his follow-, ers had not decided as ret what they would attempt to get into the platform but he said that it was his understanding from reliable sources that the brewers would keep hands off and that the democratic convention would merely declare against sumptuary legislation. The brewers he said, would j do all of their fighting in the state j legislature. However among those who attended

In connection with the plans for the state convention it may be said that the friends of the governor believe he would be a good temporary presiding officer for the convention and that he would be the man to make the keynote speech. If this comes to pass however, there mv.st be some previous agreement as to what is tcv go into the platform in regard to the liquor question as the man who makes the keynote speech most likely will wish to touch on the liquor question. It was s?id today that the state convention probably would be held I ome time in the week of A::'il 25. It has been suggested that United . States Senator Shively be the permanj ent chairman. Still H?rp on Tariff. The statement of James A. Hemenway former United States senator : when he was in the city yesterday, together with expressions from Geo. 1 1!. Lockwood of the eleventh district j and some other republicans of the state are taken to indicate that a des- ; perate effort will be made when the ! republican convention is held to get ! into the state platform, a declaration ! in favor of the Payne-AIdrich tariff bill. Mr. Hemenway in his statement ' makes a heroic defense of the tariff bill. He says it is the best revenue raising bill the government has ever ; had and that the increase in the : revenue raised is on luxuries and that j the decrease is on necessities. This is significant wheu taken in i connection with the expression of Mr. Lockwood that he will be satisfied I with a place on the resolutions com- ! mittee of the state convention. Mr. Jxickwood is one of the republican editors who in the recent meeting of the Indiana Republican Editorial asI sociation stood with Robert A. Brown of Frankfort for an indorsement of the Payne-AIdrich bill. There is little doubt it is believed but that a drastic effort will be made to get an indorsement of the tariff bill into the state platform. It is interesting in this connection to note that one of the republican (Pec3
