declared that Oklahoma would give

by President Roeseveit The order to
be Imum by Secretary Wright basel
upon the Presidents approval, will dts-

Last Wednesay evening, after Seg-
retary Wright had had a long confer-
ence with Colonel Scott, superintendent
of the military academy, the secretary
sent to President Roosevelt his recom-

Drustte Puniehment Required.
In the conference held at Sagamore
Hill, participated in by President
Roosevelt, Secrotary Wright and Colo-
nel Scott, it was suggested that all
eight of the cadets be suspended from
the academny for one year without pay
or allowunces. That was regarded as
adequate punishment for the ottennes
against the laws and regulations by
the cadeta. Buperintendent Scott, how-
ever. insisted tuat the maintenance ot
disciplipe at the academy required even
more drastic punishment than would be
contained in an order of suspenaion.

poina except Houston. Texarkana and
I Shreveport, the Interstate rates having

mentioned. Commissioner Colquitt to-
day made the following motion:
"Reterring to attached letter from
Mr Maroney of the Maroney Hardware
company of Dallas and the Texas Brew-
ing company of Fort Worth, I move
that tha railroad commission of Texas
Mede an emergency rate order, and
make the bame effective at once, mak-

modules in the same proportion from
jobbing points in the interior as may
be shown by the difference between
Shreveport, rexarkana and Houston on
acoount of the recent Inerease in Inter-
state rates to other Texas points.
•I move, further, that Mr. Arthur, our
chief rate clerk, be directed at once to
examine the tariffs to ascertain thene
differences and that the emergency rate
order be made effective at once.”
Chairman Mayfield is out of the city
but Commissloner Colquitt addressed a
letter to him, with a copy of the lot-

the request that he wire the commis-

FEED FOR THE MULE
Rout
Paris, Aug 32.— The governments
advices received tonight confirm the
report from Tangier that the forces of
Abd-el-Aziz, the recognised sultan of
Morocco, have been defeated by Mulal
Hatid. the usurping sultan.
The advices further state that Abd-
el-Aziz, who is now in full retreat in
the direction of Tadia with the rem-
nant of his torces, is being pressed by
local .tribes.
Several kslds were killed in the en-
gagement and others were captured.
No further details have been received
here.
{ and the reports giving this information
to Chairman Mack indicated that the
■state could be carried if Mr. Bryan
Would make a swing through the state.
Political conditions in the middle
West were taken up and Senator Cul-
berson, chairman of the advisory com-
mittee. Who has been spending the sum-
mer in Maryland, informed Mr. Bryan
and the committeemen that West Vir-
ginia and Maryland would in all proba-
bility be found in the Democratic ranks.
It was the opinion of those taking ac-
tive part in the committee’s delibera-
tions that the most effective campaign
for Mr. Bryan would be to make
speeches in all the middle western
states, speaking only in the principal
centers, and then to carry the fight
through West VIrginla. Maryland, New
Jersey, Delaware and New York. Much
• of the time, it was suggested. Mr. Bryan
would spend on these trips in confer-
ence with the national committeemen
and state leaders and in this way give
valuable aid and direction in the vari-
ous state campaigns.
After a consideration of these tenta-
tive suggestions and an approval of
ths reports made by the heads of bu-
reaus it was decided to call a meeting
of the full national committee with the
various subcommittees for Sept. 1 at 1
o’clock in this city.
Mr. Bryan Delighted.
Mr. Bryan told the committeemen ho
was delighted with the progress he had
observed and that while he had only a
few suggestions to make, he felt that
the work could not have been carried
out more efficiently and thoroughly.
He expreased himself as pleased with
the prospect for Democratic success.
It was learned tonight that the visit
of Mr. Bryan to New York was not only
an arrangement fully acquiesced in by
those now in the direction of the Demo-
cratic party in that state, but in no
small degree it is due to thetr desire
to have Mr. Bryan take an active part
in the New York campaign.
Chairman Mack said tonight: -we
talked today on various subjects and
had reports from the different bureaus,
which were very favorable. Mr. Bryan
said they could not be better and ap-
proved the plans we have made for the
campaign. No definite dates for Mr.

however, sales to take profits of the

New York, Aug. 22.—All hope of
bringing the Hains brothers to a speedy
trial for the killing of William E. An-
nis at the Bayside Yacht club last Sat-
urday has been given up by District
Attorney Darrin of Queens county. John
F. McIntyre ef counsel for the defense
declaring that he was making the an-
nouncement with the concurrence ot
Mr. Darrin, said that the trial would
not begin before the middle of No-
vember. P
No attempt will be made for release
on bail in the meanwhile, nor will the
Hains brothers ask for a change of
venue. A conference will be held to-
morrow regarding a plan of defense
and it may be decided then whether o
not to ask for separate trials. At the
conference today regarding the conduct
of the case the prevailing sentiment
favored basing the defense on the con-
fession which Mrs. Hains is allege to
have made to her husband, but which
she eays she was forced to sign.
Counsel for the accused brothers are
not in a mood to make overtures to

sistance at the triaL They hold that if
called upon she will be compelled to re-
peat to court what she has said Ie this
alleged confession.

In this connection an fnteresting fact
was developed by the inquiry into thia

I found guilty by a board of hazing and
as set back one years without pay or

Ths suspended cadets in the year of
their abence from the academy will

of the army officers although they will
be permitted to do whatever they max
choose unless they should resign. I
the .meantime they will be required ta

Chicago, Aug. 22--Wiiam J. Bryan
will make a. determined effort to place
New York tate in the Democratic col-
umn. Piano to this end were carefully
laid today at a three-hour conference
of Mr. Bryan, National Chairman Mack,
heads of the various bureaus of the
national committee and members of the
executive committee at Democratio na-
tional headquarters shortly after Mr.
Bryan's arrival here from Des Moines.
Mr. Bryan will speak in New York
city, Syracuse and Rochester Sept. 16
and 20 and. early in October he will
again speak in New York city and in
Buffalo.
Reports received by Chairman Mack
gave strong hope to Mr. Bryan and
members of the national committee that
the Democrats could carry New York if
Mr. Bryan coula speak in the principal
centers of the state.
It was further developed at the con-
ference that Mr. Bryan would make a
sharp fight in the middle West, while
