Russia Like Early America. Petrograd, Sept. 23.—Raymond Robins, head of the permanent Red Cross commission in Petrograd and Catherine Breshkovskaya, known as the “grandmother of the revolution,” speaking from the same platform this afternoon at the Ten Isheff audito- ridm assured their audience that Americans, Englishmen and Russians had mutual faith in the ultimate out- come of Russian democracy. Robins drew a parallel between 's troubles today and early American histo He said the out- breaks here were nothing new in his- to and he urged foreign busine in- terests to deal with new Ru on lines of economic freedom. Mme. Breshkovskaya who spoke in Bnglish, was cheered when she ex- pressed faith that Russia, as the re- sult of education, would form a true democracy after vanquishing Ger- many, the common foe. David R. Francis, the American ambassador, and other members of the diplomatic corps in Petrograd were present. Peace Menace to Russia. Petrograd, Sept., 23.—DMichael V. Rodzianko, president of the Duma, in view of the reports of the negotiations, separate generall, read a lecture to the Moscow union of public workers on the theme “could Russia conclude peace?” The lecturer sought to prove that any peace which it was possible to conclude at the present juncture must humiliate Russ He warned Rus- sin, however, that she must create a strong power, otherwise the nation would inevitably suffer when peace was negotiated. peace WILL FLOAT LIBERTY LOAN.

Tlager, was ex- humed secretly at Wilmington, N. C., after midnight last Tuesday, at the instance of Mrs. Bingham’s relatives. An autopsy was performed in the presence of a detective of national reputation and several physicians, some of the vital organs removed and sent to New York. and the body presumably reinterned, according to a statement given out here by at- torneys for Judge Bingham. The text of the statement follows: “On Friday morning last (Sept. 21) the press was full of rumors to the effect that the body of the late Mrs. Robert Worth Bingham was to be disinterred. Her grave is in the cemetery at Wilmington, N. C. “Neither Judge Bingham nor any of his friends knew anything what- ever about the matter, and the same is true of Helm Bruce, counsel for the executors and Jegatees under Mrs. Bingham'’s will. The de; stated that the health officer of W mington would make no statement and would not even affirm or deny that he had granted any permit for disinterment. It was further stated that the collateral relations of Mrs. Bingham had put a guard over her grave. “On Saturday, a friend of Judge Bingham in Wilmington to a sert in exactly the condition of af- fairs. Tt now appears that at 3 o’clock on last Tuesday morning (Sept. 18.) the disinterment took place; that an autopsy w per- formed in the present of William J. Burns and several physicians; that vital parts of the body were removed, and that these parts were turned over to some one and taken to New York. It is needless to say that all of this was surreptitious and was a secret closely guarded until the ob- ject was accomplished. “It is presumed that the disinterred body was reburied. It was then that the supposed necessity arose of jealously protecting the grave from violation. Seriously Ill Two Wecks Before Death “It belongs to the public to form its opinion of this ghastly drama. “Mrs. Bingham was attended her last illness by Dr. M. L. vitch, Dr. W. F. Boggess and Dr Steinberg On Thursday, July two weeks before her death, M Bingham had a severe attack. Her brother, William K. Kenan, was sum- moned by Judge Bingham and came. He conferred fully with Dr. Ravitch concerning Mrs. Bingham’s condition and approved everything that was being done. “On Sunday, July Mrs. Bing- ham’s condition was such that Judge Bingham wrote her sisters that he thought that they should come. RRe- sponsive to this her sister, Mrs. Wise, arriving Wednesday evening, Mrs. Bingham was then and remained so until Mrs. Wise remained the end came on in Ra- s 22, night. until Thursda with he Friday. “There were two trained nurses. Their official charts and records are in the custody of Dr. Boggess. These records wil be kept in a secure place and produced when a proper occasion arises When, if ever, whispered suspi- cion shall become an audible charge, such charges will be met with facts.” Mrs. Bingham died in Louisville July 27 1 The death certificate gave myocarditis as the cause, Mrs. Bingham left an estate hav- ing an estimated value of over $70,- 000,000, the greater part of which her will gave to members of her family. A codicil to the will, exe- cuted about a month before her death, bequeathed $5,000,000 to Judge Bingham. That this codicil would be contested has been Indicated. s e S S e WHY HAIR FALLS OUT | e T S - .t aeed Dandruff causes a feverish irritation of the scalp, the hair roats shrink, loosen and 1id the scalp of every particle of dand- ruff, get a 25-cent bottle of Danderine at any drug store, pour a little in your hand and rub well into scalp.

WILSON ares Executive Swayed Con- gress Desire of People for Peace. Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 24.—Denouncing war in general and the United States democratic govenment in particular, United States Senator Robert M. La IFollette of Wisconsin addressed a large gathering in the Coliseum yes- terday afternoon under the auspices of “The People’'s Cnurch,” made up of socia s headed by Professor Scott Nearing. Mr. La Follette attacked the Ameri- can press, declaring that American newspapers are for the most part controlled by the “war party,” the financial interests of the country. He declared that his remarks in St. Paul last week were misconstrued, and that he was being deliberately misquoted throughout the country. “I am one citizen of the United States who is ready to go against the wall to nreserve democracy,” said Senator La FFollette. Mr. La Follette declared that the president of the United States swayed congress to such an extent that the declaration of war was not the repre- sentative opinion of a democratic gov- ernment. He advocated war in de- fense only, and in case of aggression to submit the question to the people of the nation in the form of a refer- | endum. In discussing the war tax feature in connection with the prosecution of the Wi the senator asserted that ‘‘wealth has won and the people lost.” Senator La Follette said that he ! hoped to be able to serve the people of this country 25 to 30 years longer, and he prayed that his life, strength and health be spared, so that he ht fight for the principles of de- mocracy and assure liberty and free- dom to posterity. be | [KERENSKY ACCUSED OF FAHING REVOLT !Charged With Conspiring With Korniloff to Become Dictator | Petrograd, Sept. 24—The iorni- loff mystery, arising out of the recent revolt, has developed dimensions which threaten the existence of the cabinet, particularly the position of Premier Kerensky. The newspapers! representing the Left and the Right parties demand an explanation from | the government, while the Bolshevii | organg openly accuse the Premier, in the words of the Nabotchi Poot, of being in a conspiracy with Korniloff “to crush the Petrograd proletariat and the Workmen's and Soldiers’ Delegates with the help of a cavalry corps sent against Petrograd.”” The news:aper asks why, if the published documents are forged, no denial has been issued, Maxim Gorky's Zhizn, which, being unfriendly to- rd Kerens must be taken with declares that the affair is a sensation to the ranks of | the government that M. Terestchenko, the foreign minister, yesterday con- versed by telephone with M. Keren- sky about this matter. whereupon Kerensky postponed his return to Petrograd. The newspaper adds that the members of the government had decided that M. Kerensky ought to malke a statement on the subject. A more serious indication of trouble is that the Bolshevik group in the bureau of the Central Workmen's and Soldiers’ Delegates has carried by an overwhelming majority a resolution demanding an explanation. The reso- lution refers to “revelations concern- ing the actions of members and agents of the provisional government in connection with the preparation in General Korniloff’s headquarters of a conspiracy against the revolution,"” and continues “The plan was to announce an indi- vidual or collective dictatorship, at the same time declaring Petrograd under martial law, then mercilessly to ; break up the Petrograd revolutionary and working class organizations, un- der the pretext of crushing an imag- | inary Bolshevik plot.” The signatories of the demand that the members Workmen's and Soldiers’ Delegat. who were then cabinet ministe Skobeleff, (Labor): Avskentieff, (Tn- terior), and Tcherneff, (Agriculture), make a statement of all the facts | known to them. paper, Novaia resolution of the Odds of 2 to 1 on Fitzgerald Against Campner Reported From New Haven—Few Wagers Made.
