Taken in connection with the su preme court of the District of Colum bia in sentencing President Oomptrm, Secretary Morrison and John Mitchell, of the federation to serve terms in jail for contempt of court, the concluding paragraph of the resolution Is looked upon as significant. It declares that "We take this oc casion of the military murder of a man whole real offending was speaking, writing and leaching humanity to be come more wise, more free, more lib erty loving, to remind the people of our country that the liberty of the elt liens is only secure when trial by jury and in open court for any alleged of fense Involving punishment Is guar anteed."

This Is the regular October appor tionment and Is the first to be made since the passage of the law which gives $100 to each school district In stead of $!0 before the per capita ap portionment of the county fund, since when the $100 for each district and the $5 for each teacher who attend ed Institute was taken out, there was nothing left to apportion.

"The echo of that shot will shake down every throne In Christendom," declared Charles Edward Russell, magazine writer and chairman of the meeting. Resolutions were adopted declaring In the light of all the known facts, Ferrer's life was taken because of his unselfish devotion to the work of edu cation and enlightenment." "We denounce the murder of Fer rer," the resolutions continued, "and we trust that his memory will stim ulate our Spanish brothers to increas ed effort to overthrow oppression. "Down With Spain." Rrus.vels, Oct. 20. The socialists made n violent attack on Spain In the chamber of deputies yesterday with reference to the execution of Ferrer. There were cries of "Down with Spain!"

Washington, Oct. 20. A tariff of such gigantic proportions as to threat en the demoralization of trade be tween this country and France and that will eventually lead up to the prohibition of French imports to this country is looming today. Although France has not yet Issued a procla mation, imposing a moximum duty on all American imports into France she already published a notice that she intends issuing such a proclama tlon. The apparent cause of the French resentment is that Germany has been given longer than France In which to comply with the new Payne Aldrlch schedules. Under the law President Taft Is empowered to pro hibit Imports from countries dis criminating against the United States and it Is feared he will be forced to take that step. GIRL RISES LIFE TO STEAL ROSARY Declare Grand .Jury Was Illegal Be cause of Wrong Methods In the Drawing Affidavit and Counter Affidavit Piled. The fight to save the slayer of Ed ward Dixon was continued this morn ing by the filing of a motion to quash the last Indictment and the arguments of the attorneys on this motion. The attorneys for Mike Ryan now allege that he was not Indicted by a legally constituted grand jury and that their client is being deprived of his liberty Without due process of law. It is alleged that the Jury list was made at the January term of the coun ty court by the county judge and coun ty commissioners acting together whereas it should have been done by the county judge alone. It is further alleged that the given or Christian nams of the jurymen should have been given In full, whereas approxi mately half of them only had the In itials. It Is further alleged that the list was not certified to by the clerk, not placed on file In his office and that no minute was made of the draw- nsj for the September term.

This is the first time that the meth od of drawing jurors has ever been centered In the Tammany gathering. Judge Gaynor went over the ground that he had covered heretofore thrusts at William R. Hearst, his in dependent rival, and cirtlcism of Ban nard. He also touched on "personal liberty," traction problems, subways and other Issues of Interest to the city only. He repeated that if there was to be any swallowing between him and the tiger he would be found out side. Referring to the office of may or, he classed it as second in Import ance only to the presidency of the T'nlted States, and said that no office offered greater opportunity for ex erting power for good or evil.

Washington. A Pittsburg man has put a new one up to the treasury department The answer may not add materially to the total of useful knowledge, but It will be sure, as in the case of other tool things, to ex cite the usual human curiositv until it is forthcoming. Here's the question: How many cents are there In a bushel?" The mint bureau has many queer questions afked It. This bureau works month n and month out on arithmet ical problems dealing with the gold and silver supply of the world, and hard problems In figures are not rare by any means. But never before was the bureau called upon to tell how many cents there are In a bushel. lhe Pittsburg man who wants an answer to this question will be told that the government and its mint bu reaus, although handling large sums of money, have never gotten into the habit of measuring coins by the bush el, half bushel, quart or peck. Until it does so it will be unable to answer questions of this kind. Mint bureau officials will not un dertake to guess concerning the num ber or cents in a bushel. Roughly guessing, however, one of the clerks said the total number o coins would probably be something like S2.000 or $320 worth. and attacked him bitterly. Mr. Ban nard said: "I am not spending jny time abus ing other candidates, but Instead I am touching on different phases of city life. He refused absolutely to comment on Hearst's attack. He.irst Is resting. Gaynor is still the favorite In the betting, although money for election betting seems scarce this year, or else those who wager on the results of elections are holding off for the sit uation to clear up. At the Hoffman House today, where many of the elec tion wagers are posted, It was said that no prevailing odds have devel oped. There are wagered, however. $2000 to $1500. or 4 to S, that Ban nard would be last, and $2000 was bet against $1000 on Gaynor against the field.

Frierds of U Gulterrez de Lara, the Mex in so cialist organizer, who was . rrested here Monday as an alien anarchist, to day launched a campaign to raise the $5,000 necessary to secure his release on bail. De Lara is practically with out funds to pay his attorneys and the cost of legal proceedings. A mass meeting will be held to raise the bail money.
