IOWA filllSY ASK THAI
ROOSEVELT RUN AGAIN
Strong Probability the State Will
Be for Cummins and the
President.
Ipecial to The Journal.
Des Moines, Iowa, April 28.That
,he fiercest campaign ever waged be
,ween two republican candidates for a
ugh office in Iowa will terminate with
he nomination of Governor A. B. Cum
in us for a third term that this state
jwll insist i.pon the renomination of
-rheodore Roosevelt for president and
leclare for tariff revision and radical
'ontrol of trusts and railroad regula
,ion, are strongly indicated by the pro
gress that has been made so far in the
ontest between Governor Cummins and
jeorge D. Perkins of Sioux City for
.he gubernatorial nomination.
If Governor Cummins wins the fight,
is now seems Lkely, Iowa will utterly ig
lore the candidacy of Leslie M. Shaw,
md go on record in the strongest terms
'or the renomination of Roosevelt. This
nrill be urged on the ground that Roose
velt is the only man who can reallv as
ture success for the republican partv
1908 that as two factions exist in
he republican party, one radical and
he other conservative, Roosevelt is
,he only man who can unite them. Iowa
vill thus by Inference take the position
hat such a leader as Shaw or Fair
)anks or Foraker could not have hope
winning against such a democrat as
iTolk or Brya n.
That Cummins ajioulcr win -with a.
yoodly margin, in his fight for renomin
ition is indicated by numerous develop
nents. In the first month he secured
J93 delegates to the state convention,
o 93 for Perkins, '826 being necessaiv
,o nominate.
This gubernatorial contest will ga
lown in Iowa history as the dirtiest
ve known between two candidates of
me party. It was rivaled in intensity
mly by the free silver campaign of
896. Never were partisans more bitter
han members of the rival factions
vithin the party.
The winner of this contest will ab
lolutely dictate in the state convention
August 1. If Perkins wins, there will
ie strong likelihood of the state going
'or Shaw for president in 190S. and
he platform will probably "standpat"
the tariff and be altogether conser
rative. If Cummins wins, the platform
rill declare for tariff revision and strict
ontrol of corporations. As a result of
iuoh a pl&tfoim, Cummins would go to
he national convention with a delega
ion pledged %o stand with the radicals
tf the party as to policy and to sup
ort Roosevelt for renomination.

Teacher Who Played With William
Dunn When Child and Sent Him
After Fortune Now His Wife.
Speoial to The Journal.
Chicago, April 28.The first of a
series of weddings which will make a
large hole in the teaching force of the
Chicago public schools took place to
day when Miss Julia F. Ford, a teacher
in the Graham school, was married to
"William Dunn, a wealthy stockman of
St. Paul.
The wedding is the culmination of a
romance which dates back to the time
when Miss Ford, who lives at 646"
West Forty-fourth street, played about
the corners with her present husband.
The young people grew up together and
it is said that Miss Ford was the in
spiration which sent Dunn to St. Paul
to seek his fortune.
Every effort was made to keep secret
the date and- the hour of the wedding,
and only a few of the most intimate
friends of the bride and bridegroom
were present, including about a half
dozen of the other teachers who were
smitten by Cupid and are only waiting
for the end of the school year for their
own weddings.
After the singing of Willard's "Ave
Maria" by Miss Celia McAdams, the
the party went to the home of the
bride's father, where an elaborate
wedding breakfast was served.
Mr. and Mrs. Dunn have gone to St.
Paul.

PRESIDENT'S TA^ PLAN
TOBECElKEflRSTTEST
Inheritance Proposition Is Op
posed by Foraker Who Car
ries Tight Into Ohio.
rv^-riv-
Kew York Herald Special Ssrvice.
Washington, April 28.There will be
fought, in the coming Ohio state con
vention, the first fight to prevent the
republican party from giving its sanc
tion and adherence to the radicalism of
Theodore Roosevelt. Senator Joseph B.
Foraker will lead the conservative
forces, and upon his success in stemming
the tide of what men of his belief con
sider to be a sort of "red folly," mav
depend the chances of the senior Ohio
senator of being considered as a lead
ing candidate of the conservatives of
his paity for the presidency of the
United States.
It is practically certain that both the
senators from the McKinley state will
oppose any plan of the delegates to the
convention to declare in favor of an en
dorsement of Mr. Roosevelt's inheri
tance tax utterance. Senator Dick has
been known in a mild sense as an ad
ministration senator. The junior Ohio
member of the upper house, howevei,
it is understood, has_ had a troublous
task of it to make bis beliefs and his
theories coincide with those of the
president.
It is possfble that before the conven
ing of the Ohio republican state "gather
ing some of the representatives in con
gress may take the seal from their lips
and declare that the president's for
tune sayinjf was pregnant with wisdom.
All of the Ohio members are listening
for voices. It is well understood
that
this year more than any previous year
the rank and file of the republican
partv in the state of Ohio will do the
nominating.
If a sufficiently large number of the
rank and file show that thev have been
won over to a mind to walk with the
president in the new paths then th?
in the president's speech, the senior
Ohio member has said:
I cannot undertake to say what the
Ohio state convention will do, but the
people of the state have had an ex
perience with an inheritance tax. On
the face of the returns it does not ap
pear that they think very well of a
death tax. As I understand it, this
new proposition is one to limit private
fortunes. I do not believe that the
people of the country will approve any
plan to limit individual opportunity."
If Senator Foraker really hopes that
he may become the candidate of the
republican party for the presidencv it
would seem that he has based his hopes
on nothing more than on the stones of
opposition to the administration. It
is one of the senior Ohio senator's am-

that he will have to hold his party in

any doubt as to how Mr. Foraker
stands on the fortane taxing proposi

as he has upon the railroad rate ques
tion, and as Mr. Foraker alway3 is
hopeful he believes that what he calls
conservatism will win. Upon the sub

Liquidation and Aggressive Bear
Manipulation Again Held

Bincial to The Journal.
New York, April 28.There was an
other severe break in today's stock
market. Manv of the prominent issues
made new low levels. Extreme declines
in the active list ranged from one to
ten joints altho in the standard issues
the lange of losses was from one to
about th^ee points.
Eenev. ed liquidation, involuntary
and voluntary, was responsible for the
break. There was also the usual ag
gressive bear manipulation. There
were few commission firms that failed
to have selling orders on account of
exhausted margins. Last night heavy
calls were sent out for more margin
?nd today's liquidation was largely
the response. Transactions totaled
over 1,000,000 shores.
No local failures were announced,
altho one small suspension was reported
in London, due, it was said, to the
