Beverly, Mass, Sept. 30.—"Some of the people now ag third party men will wake up after the election and find themselves alone. We would be glad to welcome them back to the republican party, but they must come back as whole republicans—they must auiport the national, state and local tickets.” That was the substance of Presi- dent Taft's message tonight to the Re- publican club of Beverly. The presi- dent continued by advising against a policy of temporizing. “It's time to quit temporizing, “If a maa is a republican let him say so and let him support the ticket. If he is not, throw him out of the party.” The president made oniy a short talk to his fellow' republicans of the summer capital and a few minutes later spoke to the Beverly Italian club in city ha!l on citizenship.

Sea Girt, N. I, Sept. 80.—Governor Woodrow Wilson, when he reached Sea Girt tonight from Atlantic City, where he had made a brief speech of welcome to the American roads con- gress, permitted the correspondents to announce formally that he “had read with great surprise the statement said to have heen made by Governor Dix today, for he had absolutely no recol- lection of having written Governor Dix any letter in which he expressed an opinion of any kind as to his ad- ministration.” The presidential nominee referred to a statement issued from Albany early in the day by Governor Dix in answ to Governor Wilson's - pronouncement of vesterday urging the democratic state convention to name a progres- sive man, Governor Dix had been "“ Lquoted in the statement as asserting | that there was nothing in his personal correspondence with Governor Wilson to indicate that the presidential nomi- nee opposed him.

East. Haddam, Sept. 30.—Phijip Young, who is believed to be mentally unbalanced, this afternoon shot and serlously wounded Frederick Schwartz, proprietor of Camp Wopowog, a weil known summer camp in this vicinity: The shooting was apparently without provocation. Schwartz, who has four bullet wounds in his head and neck, was rushed to a New Haven hospital. Young, who is about 45 years old, bhas been employed at the camp in various capacities for several _years. He applied for work last Friday, but was told there was nothing for him to do. Nothing was seen of him until Mr. Schwartz entered his barn late this afternoon, and then Young sud- denly appeared in the hay mow. Ie brandished a large revolver and with- out any warning fired four shots at Schwartz, all of which took effect. Young then disappeared in the direc- tion of Moodu: | In the meantime Deputy Sheriff '0'Neill of East Hampton and Consta- ble Rich were notlfied and they started in pursuit in an auto. They saw Young running across a meadow and after an exciting chase took him a risoner. | When asked as to wlry{ he shot Schwartz, Young said that! he asked him for a recommendation and that Schwartz refused to give it to him. Young was taken to Haddam jail to- night and he will be arraigned tomor- WAR SPIRIT STRONG ! IN BALKAN STATES. \ bl e All Now Depends on Influence of Powers to Prevent Outbreak. London, Oct. 1.—The Balkan diffi- cultles have developed with alarming rapidity to a point where only a spark is needed to set' the whole of south- easterh Europe aflame. Three of the Balkan states by common consent have ordered the simultaneous mobilization of their armies and are making every preparation for immediate hostilitles. Two possible explanations are offer- ed, the first that a coalition of the Bdglsn states exists for the purpose of demanding from Turkey before she has time to conclude peace with Italy the grant of complete autonomy to the Macedonian provinc: the second ‘that, fearing Turkey will seek an is- sue from her difficulties at home and abroad in war, they are preparing themselves for a possible attack. Everything now seems to depend on whether the great powers will be able to bring sufficlent pressure to bear to prevent the outbreak of hostilities and preserve the status quo in the Bai- kans. Today’s developments appear fully to confirm the existence of a military understanding between Bul- garia, Greece, Servia and Montenegro directed against Turkey. The approach of winter is held to be a factor in favor of peace and in the Furopean capitals the hope is still cherished in diplomatic quarters that the efforts of the powers will be suc- cesstul.

LITTLE HARM DONE BY FROST IN WEST Yield of Corn Still Expected to Break All Records. Chicago, Sept. 30.—Although frost visited the latter part of last week the leading corn belt states of the west and southwest and did a little damage to the late corn in the north- ern sections, it did not seriously cur- tail the aggregate yield for the coun- try, which i1s the largest ever raised.

A SERIES OF LETTERS Correspondence Between the Two Fur- nished Committee, but Throws No Light on Harriman Contributions. ‘Washington, Sept. 30—All of the cor- respondence between President Roose- velt and the late Edward H. man, covering the period from Mr. Roosevelt's succession to the office in 1901 until Mr. Harriman's differences with him in 1906, was placed in evi- dence today before the senate commit- tee investigating campaign expendi- tures, Committee Gleans Little Light. Out of the scores of letters, cover- ing every subject from exhibits of Indian pictures to the appointment of federal judges and territorial govern- ors in Arizona, the senate committee was able to secure little nmew light bearing upon the subject of campaign contributions or the disputed question of whether President Roosevelt had specifically asked Mr. Harriman in 1904 to raise a fund of $240,000 for the campalgn. Testify to Harriman's Statements. C. S. Tegethoff, nof awent for the Harriman estate and former private secretary to Mr. Harriman; and Charles A Peabody, president of the Mutual Life Insurance compahy, and personal attorney for Mrs. Harriman in the admipletration of the estate both testified that Mr. Harriman had told them the raising of the big cam- pals’? fund haq been undertaken at President Roosevelt's request, a state- ment made by Mr. Timan before his death, but which was denled by President Roosevelt. File of Letters Offered. Aside from the file of letters given the committee, no documnetary evi- dence was offered, howéver; and out of the many letters none was produced except that written by Mr. Harriman | to Sidney Webster, January 2, 1906, that in any way bore upon the charge that President Roosevelt haq asked the railroad man to raise funds. The Webster Letter. The Webster letter, made public by Mr. Harriman himself, during the con- troversy with President Roosevelt over the fund, intimated that Mr. Harri- man had been asked by the president to raise the fund: and that it had been the understanding among flnan- cial men to whom he appealed that Senator Depew was to be given the ‘ambassadorship.to France. Harriman’s Receipt for $50,000. ! Tegethoft produced a series of papers i st wis o soceot slgns e Was a recelpt signed by C. N. Bliss as treasurer of ih nationl republican_committee, dated 1904. It was for $50,000, which Mr. Tegethoft was Mr, Harriman's contribution to the republican campaign fund of 1904, Then Mr. Tetgethoff put in the record a serles of letters in which President Roosevelt asked E. H. Har- riman to visit the White house dur- ing the fall and winter of 1903. Let- ters dated October 2 and October § from the former president asked Mr. Harriman “if he would be in Wash- ington soon,” and invited him to eith- er lunch or dine at the White house, Replies from Mr. Harriman said that he was not planning to come to Wash- inston at that time, but might come later. Letters of that character con- tinued up to May 17, when President Roosevelt wrote asking Harriman if he could “take lunch with me on Mon- day, May 23.” If this was not conveni- ent the president suggested that Mr. Harriman dine with him on_either Wednesday or Thursday. Harriman Consented to Dine. The date, according to a rapid ex- change of letters produced, was final- ly fixed for Wednesday evening, May |&ll 25, when Mr. Harriman' consented to dine at the White house. In a sub- sequent letter written by William Loeb, then secretary to the president, it was set forth that Attorney General | Knox, Mr. Cortelyou and Senator Mur- ray Crane would also be present. The letters produced included the one written by President Roosevelt October 14, 1904, heretofore publisheq, In which he told Mr. Harriman to can- cel his proposed visit to Washington if he thought it dangerous to Mr. Roosevelt's candidacy. Harriman Asks a Favor. WA letter from Mr. Harriman, Decem- ber 20, 1904, asked the president to consider W.' H. Stillwell of Phoenix for an impending vacancy in the jus- ticeship of the territory of Arizona. To that Secretary Loeb replied that the president did not know of a vacancy, buti*will carefully look the matter up.” A letter from President Roosevelt October ' 2, 1904, proposed that Mr. Harriman come to Washington to vis- it him.
