LaFollette of Wiscon- sin, conferred at the union station to- night upen their joint arrival in the city, the former from the/sduth and in the latter from the west. The meeting said to be accidental. No Eooner was it known, however, than tongues began to wag and third- party talk flew thick and fast about the hotel corridors. It was not wholly confined to members of the democrat- ic national commitiee who were gath- ering for the meeting tomorrow, but republicans, too, showed a lively in- terest, % Al ‘day the demoratic committec- had Deen seeking methods of ling with several perplexing prob- s lems sej for tomorrow's meeting, but | nearly every possible solution ad- vanced seer t0 depend upon the prob- able attitude of the Nebraska leader. Progress was slow because of the gen- eral desire to consult Mr. Bryan and his arrival was awaited wii' great impatier Mr. Bryan explained tersely that Scnator La Follette and he had bad talked about the resolution pending in congress providing for the election of senators by popular vote. Senaor LaFollette gave the same explanation tonight by telephone, but in the minds cf some there remained a little skep- ticism. it wag reported that Semator La- Follette went to the station to meet Mr. Bryan. When telephoned about this Teport the senator said that the meet- ing was purely accidental, resulting from the fact that their trains hap-| pened to arrive at the same hour. After removing travel stains Col- onel Bryan drove to the hotel apart- ment of Norman E. Mack, chairman of the national committee. The colonel dined with Chairman Mack. At the hotel Mr. Bryan was met by | & large number of newspaper men. He was asked all sorts of questions, but he would not discuss any of the sub- jects pending before the committee. Yet he Was as affable as ever as ha; edeed away from the persistent group and slipped into the elevator which carried him to Mr, Mack's apartment. EITHER COAL GAS OR POISONED MILK.

Philadelphia, Jan. 7—Mystery su rounds the deaths of four persons Whose bodies, fully clothed, s covered today in the se room of the boarding ho Mrs. Bridget Flanagan, 1823 North Twent: Fourth street. Mrs. Flanagan, Who is one of the dead, was deserted by her husband ten days ago, it is alieged, but is said to have been in fairly prosperous circumstances, She was 38 years of age.

The fourth body was that of Catherine Murray, aged 18 years, & boarder in the house, Who = recently came to this country from Ireland. Her room was on the third floor but she evidently decided to sleep with Mrs. Flanagan because of the greater warmth of the latter's room. Tho police officials and coroner are unable to determine whether the deaths were caused by coal gas or whether & poison had been put into milk of which all four had drunk. The latter theory is supported by the pres- ence of some crystals in an empty milk pitcher. The crystals have not been analyzed Mrs. Hannah Curran, a sister of Mrs. Flanagan, who came yesterday with her family to live at the house, was found unconscious in another room. She was removed to a hospital where the physiclans say she s suffering from pneumonia. They are unable to determine whether or not she also was poisoned. Her son Philip, aged 17 years, and her daughter Marguerits, aged 13, told the police they had felt siek but they are not in a serious con- ition, FOR OPERATION OF THE PANAMA CANAL.
