LINN BRUCE_RESIGNS
As President of the New York
County Committee.
FOLLOWS CONFERENCE
PARTICIPATED IN BY ODELL,
PLATT AND DUNN.
Understood That Retirement Was Not
Forced?All the Conferees
Talk.
The New York Tribune'today says:
M. Linn Bruce yesterday tendered his
restoration as president of the republican
county committee. This action was takes
as a result of a series of conferences by
Gov. Odell, Senator Piatt. Col. Dunn, chair
man of the republican state committee, and
Mr. Bruce.
Gov. Odell, who arrived in this city late
Tuesday night, spent the greater part of the
day yesterday in consultation with the
party leaders, and steps were taken toward
getting the organization In shape for the
contest next year.
It may be stated that Mr. Bruce's resig
nation was EJt forced. All of those who
took part In the conferences yesterday paid
tribute to Ills sterling work in the last
campaign, and would have supported him
in a campaign for re-election as president
of the county committee.
Not a Rich Kan.
Mr. Bruce, however. Is not a rich man.
He has given up a great deal of time to
politics, and his law practice has suffered.
He found that he could not continue this
work. Next year is to be an exceptionally
trying one, and he thought he could not af
ford the sacrifice. He therefore offered his
resignation, and some one will be chosen
In his place. Just who will be named was
not determined yesterday.
Mr. Bruce could have remained as chair
man had ft? seen fit. and it was announced
last night that he would secure some ap
pointment in the near future that would be
a substantial recognition of his services in
the recent campaign*
After consulting with Gov. Odell, Senator
Piatt and Col. Dunn, Mr. Bruce made the
following statement:
Mr. Bruce's Statement.
"An effective administration of the office
of president of the county committee during
the coming year, in view of the impending
national and state elections, will require all
the time of the president for at least eight
months. I have had under consideration
for some days whether or not I could ac
cept, a re-election.
"I find myself at the parting of the ways;
I must either practice law or practice pol
itics; I prefer the former. I have spent
many years building up a law business,
and I cannot abandon it. I have, therefore,
today informed Senator Piatt and Gov.
Odell that it would be impossible for me to
accept a re-election.
"The reports that I have in view any ap
pointive position or designation are without
foundation in fact.
The conference yesterday related mainly
to the county committee. It may be said
that the question of Col. Dunn's continu
ance as chairman of the state committee
was not touched on. In fact, the relations
between Col. Dunn annd Gov. Odell are of
the most cordial character. A prominent
republican said last night:
"There haw been no time in the last three
years when the powers in the organization
were so thoroughly In harmony as they are
tonight. I only hope it will last."
Senator Piatt Talks.
After the conferences yesterday all of
those who took part made statements. Sen
ator Piatt said:
"The governor. Col. Dunn and myself con
ferred today regarding various matters of
political Interest. In reference to the chair
manship of the New York county commit
tee we all agreed in pronouncing Mr.
Bruce's administration to have been mo.!t
admirable, a-nd we united in the belief that
his services ought to be employed in that
difficult post for another term if he could
be induced to remain.
"Mr. Bruce, however, for profess'onal
reasons, concludes that he cannot longer
serve the party in the chairmanship of
that committee, much to the regret of us
all.
"The efforts of the democratic press to
stir up sedition in the republican party
and to disrupt the friendly relations which
have so long subsisted between its leadors
have been unavailing, and the unpleasant
rumors of enmity between the governor an3
myself ought now to be set at rest."
Odell and Dunn Talk.
Col. Dunn said:
"Senator Piatt, Gov. Odell, Mr. Bruce and
I have' had talks today on various matters
relating to the work of the republican paity
In the campaign next year. Mr. Bruce in
forms us that his professional duties will
not permit him to accept a re-election as
president of the county committee. I sin
cerely regret his decision, and think all
active republicans will unite in this senti
ment."
Gov. Odell made this statement:
"Following up the conference with Sen
ator Piatt and Chairman Dunn this morn
ing, i have talked with Chairman Bruce in
reference to his remaining chairman of the
county committee. I have said that his
work was satisfactory, and that, if he
. continue. he would meet with my
cordial co-operation and aid.
. "p?r Professional reasons, however he
has declined a re-election, to the regret of
all those who have the interest of the re
publican party at heart."
Mr. Bruce was elected president of the
county committee last July, following the
resignation of Robert C. Morris. Among
those mentioned as possible successors are
1. Norton Goddard and Alexander T.
Mason.
DOUGLASS HEIRS TALK OF SUIT.
May Try to Get Possession of Property
Left by the White Wife.
A special to the New York Tribune from
Rochester. N. Y.. last night say3: The death
on Tuesday at Cedar Hill, Anacostia, D. C.,
of Helen Douglass, the white wife of Fred
erick Douglass, has stirred up the bitter
ness long entertained by the children of the
first w'te.
Mrs. Douglass arranged that her hus
band's home, books, manuscripts and other
possessions should be given to the Fred
erick Douglass Memorial and Historical
Association, which she had incorporated by
the passage of a law'two years ago.
Mrs. Douglass also arranged that the
body of Mr. Douglass should be moved
from Rochester to Cedar Hill. The chil
dren of Frederick Douglass will Immediate
ly take legal steps to prevent this.
Mrs. Rosetta Douglass Sprague, a daugh
ter, who lives her.!, said tonight that an
effort would be made to secure the property
and effects and that her father's body will
never be moved. Her two brothers, Lewis
and Charles, of Washington, will join with
her, she said, in the necessary legal steps.
North Dakota Politician Indicted.
A dispatch from Grand Forks. N. Dak.,
last night says: John S. Murphy, repub
lican leader and capitalist, has been In
dicted by the federal grand jury for perjury
in connection with the payment of $1,800
back pension to a Mrs. Grinnell.
It Is alleged that Murphy swore that
Mrs. Grinnell had never remarried after the
death of her llrst husband. The facts are
that Mrs. Grinnell killed her first husband
in self-defense, as the grand jury said In
these words: "He came to his death by
the h^nd of Providence and his wife."
Afterward she was married to Fred
Mf ore. Then she secured a divorce from
Mcore, and It is alleged that Murphy
swore that she had never had a second
husband. The pension department investi
gated and Murphy's indictment resulted.

GREAT JOY AT PANAMA
?OVER THE SIGNING OF THE
CANAL TREATY.
Bands Parade and Firework? Are Ex
ploded?Gudger Gets the
Gold Pen.
A cablegram from Panama last night
gives further details of the signing of the
canal treaty. It says:
The signing of the treaty was joyfully
accepted by "the people, and there was no
opposition of any nature whatever. The
members of the provisional government are
pleased and gratified that the matter is
now off their hands.
There was a public manifestation this
evening In the streets of Panama In honor
of the Junta, and placards were posted
saying that "Colombia's pretensions of Its
right to sell the Isthmus have been mortally
wounded."
Gudger Gets Gold Pen.
The gold pen with which the treaty was
signed was presented by the members of
the junta to Consul General Gudger. with
a letter expressing the pleasure the junta
felt in making the gift.
The letter contained many complimentary
remarks concerning the long and efficient
service of the consul general, and ended by
saying:
"Should your government, as some Amer
ican newspapers have indicated, call you to
higher and more Intimate relations with
the republic of Panama, it will be pleasing
to us and meet with the hearty approval of
the people."
General Jollification.
There was a general jollification in Ha
vana this evening over the signing of the
treaty. Bands paraded the streets and
fireworks were exploded. A great orowd
assembled on the plaza and marched to the
government palace, where it gave vent to
its great joy in cheers.
A reception was held at the palace, where
many prominent persons made speeches,
while the crowd outside continued to cheer
for the junta. .The soldiers, who were all
given leave from barracks, joined the merry
makers.
There is every evidence that the signing
of the treaty Is an extremely popular event
in Panama.
Official Advices From Panama.
Secretary Hay has received a cablegram
from Consul General Gudger, saying that
the canal treaty has been unanimously ap
proved by the Panama government and
cabtnet.
Two cablegrams, one from the junta and
the other from the minister for foreign af
fairs of the republic of Panama announcing
the approval of the Hay-Bunau-Varilla
treaty, were also received by Minister Va
rilla.
The junta said:
"We are happy to communicate to your
excellency that we have just ratified the
Hay-Bunau-Varilla treaty without modi
fication and unanimously. This official act
has been received with unanimous approba
tion."
The treaty as approved and signed by the
Panama junta will be promptly returned to
Minister Varilla at Washington. To insure
its safe and prompt transmission without
interference by officials anywhere the treaty
will be intrusted to Consul General Gud
ger at Panama, who will forward It to
Washington in the American diplomatic
mail pouch. Instructions to this effect al
ready have been sent to Mr. Gudger by Sec
retary Hay.
Benefits of Soap.
From tbe Chicago Record-Herald.
For years public-spirited people have
been preaching about the benefits of soap.
Some men have even gone so far as to say
that soap is the real emblem of civilization.
Whether this Is so or not. it is well known
that In countries where the people are sav
'age there Is no soap. It has been difficult,
however,- to get some people to accept soap
as a blessing or as a bulwark of the home.
In spite of the good work the magazines
have been doing by way of disseminating
soap advertisements there are many in
habitants of our splendid country who con
tinue to regard soap with suspicion If not
with downright abhorrence.
On the Spot.
From the Philadelphia Press.
He?"Queer habit Miss Passay has when
you're talking to her."
She?"Doesn't she listen?"
He?"Oh, very attentively; but she keeps
nodding her head and interjecting 'Yes,
yes,' all the time."
She?"I think she has fallen into that
habit waiting for some man to propose."

GREW THIS HAIR.
MISS 8ES8IE BARTHOLOMEW,
Leesburg, tnd.
When the scalp throws off either dandruff or ?
gummy substance It Is an evidence of scalp dis
ease, and no time should he lost in correcting It.
You certainly would uot hesitate to take treatment
were you to look at this matter through a magni
fying glass. When highly magnified it resembles a
working mass of insects. These creatures absorb
the nutriment or llfe-aap of the scalp, causing the
scalp to become dry and feverish, resulting in the
loss of hstr snd finally baldness. Dsndertne works
wonders in aJQ sorb eoses. It thoroughly eradicates I
all trace of scalp bacteria and makes tbe hair grow {
unusually long, strong snd beautiful. One 2S-eent 1
bottle Is enough to show you thst It will do all this
