GILCHRIST LIKES LI T. ROOSEVELT Cut Frcm a Democratic Standpoint Governor of Florida, Now in Indianapolis, Is Not Talking Much. GIGANTIC EXECUTIVE SPEAKS ON POLITICS Praises Beveridge's Idea of Citizenship Above Party and Tells How Things Are Done in Dixie. (Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Sept. 27. The Claypool clerk Mid ho was a littlo man, bat the clerk was only spoofing. Fall six fsot nine Inches of ponderous humanity with a Taftlan girth appeared on the horlson of the lobby Monday night when Oov. A. W. Gilchrist of Florida stepped down from the dining room with a satisfied smile on his rotund face. Like the rest of those who attended the reception given by Governor Thomas R. Marshall, ho was decked out in evening clothes that surely were not purchased in Tallahassee, FIs, "Haow do you all do?" he asked with the inimitable drawl of Dixieland. "We're Just moseyn along all right down there. I guess. I came up heah to take a look at youah prisons with tho rest "Haow do I look upon Roosevelt? Well, hen, heh, heh.N he chuckled. -Ah, really I don't think I'd care to speak from a democratic standpoint, bat pahsonally, puhsonally. I say, I like Teddy. Teddy's all right. I don't know much about this heah new nationalism. I dont know Just what Teddy's Idears are yet, but all the same I like him." Got. Gilchrist was told Senator Al bert J. Beverldge Is making the theme of ettlsenshlp above partisanship a big Issue la the campaign. In Indiana ana vaai ine yiusie iw npaauatH of tho state are strong for the purging ef politics. . More of It Needed. "There ought to be moan of It, moan of it." he said. "All ovah the country. It looks like this progressive movement is bringing It on. It's time the people weah taking hold. Why I was Just reading the biography and Incidents In the life of Senatah Piatt, and I regard it as amasing the way two or three men have run things in New York state. That's Just an Instance. Howl dawn our wtr. wo whites run things the right way. We all get to- , gather for tho good of the state, we rote one way when ouah nominations are settled, and we run things sun. No. I wouldn't call It insurgency with- . In the democratic pahty. The two factions have been lighting one onother as long aa I can remembah. I belong to one. and several belong to the other. : We hold two primaries and f ght out the nomination, and after that, we all stick together. On the state ticket republicans who vote republican nationally vote with us and that's why we whites keep control. Win? I should say I will win. "As for, county option, we have it. and It's abaout the best we can do down theah. The prohibitionists are very foolishly trying to put through a bill this fall, but the option plan Is bettah." .And towering high above most of the distinguished foreign delegates this good humored, easy going upstanding southerner rolled off to greet the governor of the H coaler state.

INDUSTRIAL PARADE.

Industrial Parade, October 6th, 1910. All those who expect to enter the Industrial Parade, and have not advised W.

SAYS BEVERIDGE WILL BE WHIR Candidate Reed Says the Voters Are Standing by the Senator Loyally. TAGGARTAND KERN MEET SENATORIAL ASPIRANT AND DEM OCRATIC BOSS HAVE SECRET CONFERENCE CHIEFTAINS ALSO IN POW-WOW. (Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Sept 27. John Reed, republican candidate for auditor of state, is regarded as one of the strongest men on the state ticket, and also one of the most conservative in his estimates; an efficient one, slow to praise or denounce, talking little and working hard. He has been out in various sections of the state attending organisation meetings and getting close to the men who will cast the silent snow of ballots on election day. In view of these conditions what he said of Senator Albert J. Beverldge's chances may be considered of more than usual slgnilcance. "I And the sentiment for Beverldge is strong In every county I visited," said he. "He will derive a great share of non-partisan support I know of one precinct where the democratic com mitteeman himself has offered seven or eight rigs with which to get out votes for Beverldge on election day. I know of one factory employing about six hundred men In which democratic foreman said nearly every one was for Beverldge. X was In the country districts quite a bit and And the country people are absolutely satHad that Henri age wiH win. - - -Withal the emphasis of this state ment it was not a bit stronger than the word which nearly every republican organisation worker brought In from tho last week's round up. The tone of encouragement and satisfaction over all the signs is unanimous. A Secert Conference. TJ. 8." Jackson, democratic state chairman came to Indianapolis from Greenleld Tuesday morning for tho first time since tho death of Mrs. Jackson, and spent a few hours In state headquarters. He win return to Greenfield for several days before re suming active work again, but before a week has passed will plunge into tho campaign again with the resolu tion that he must see It through.' It develops John W. Kern and one Thomas Taggart have had a secret conference In Indianapolis within the past few days. The meeting was held in a residence in the Tenth ward. Taggart Is bent on injecting more ginger into the democratic campaign. The unsavory aspect of such a meeting, however, appears In the attitude of opposition to Taggart which Kern dis plays among the rural democrats. At least a good many democrats throughout the state will be Interested in knowing of the growing affiliation of Kern with Taggart. It Is somewhat remarkable how democrats never meet, but "Jest drap In." Now, when Sam Ralston blew into Indianapolis Monday, no one thought much about it And when William O'Brien and Lew Ellingham registered at the Taggart hostelry it waant surprising. And when O. V. Mensles. Sniveler's old rival, lugged a grip down street there was nothing aatonlahing about it But when Joe Reflly and Charles Qreathouse loomed up at tho Denlson. it began to look like a case of circumstantial evidence, in which every one circumstance is pure and Innocent but the whole of 'em, ensemble, taken together, and regarded In relationship, is verily sus picious. WAS A FALSE ALARM ''Come quick. . House's on fire.' cried a woman over the telephone to Chief Ed Miller this morning. The No. 2 company was - dispatched to 113 South Eleventh, where the feminine voice said the fire was located, but no fire was found by tho departments. Oliver Fry lives at 113 South Elev enth but claimed the alarm did not come from there. The telephone operator sad the call came from 113 South Eleventh. DRUNK IS FINED. Walking around the C 4 O. depot yesterday afternoon with his shoes and socks off, badly Intoxicated, Abraham Berkley was arrested by Patrolman Lawler for drunk. . This morning In police court he was fined $1 and

When they reached the Church of the Reformation the rioters attacked the edifice.

The rioters turned their attention from looting to the police and a pitched battle ensued. The rioters piled up a barricade of pews and fought stub bornly from behind this protection. Lieut Heck, who had charge of the police was struck in the head with a boulder and it was feared that his skull was fractured. He will probably die. Twenty policemen were wound ed, many of them seriously. Carried to Hospitals. Practically every ambulance In the city was summoned to the scene and street vehicles were pressed into ser vice. Wounded soldiers and rioters were carried away to hospitals side by side, i After a prolonged strife the rioters were driven from the church and took refuge inside streets and alleys.. In the meantime another section of the mob was carrying its depredations into the residence district Citizens fled from their homes in terror of their lives and the maruders entered the homes carrying away everything of value they could lay their hands on. Many of them became intoxicated from looted wine and liquor and. Inflamed with drink, their excitement gave way to frenzy. . Orders were given for soldiers to patrol all the streets of the city.
