Bryan Says: "Boss Murphy Controls"
I lie country is now able Io look upon the amazing spectacle of a national convention con
li'olh'd by a national committee, that committee controlled by a sub committee of sixteen, the
siio-committee controlled by a group of eight men. these men controlled by Boss Murphy and
Boss Murphs controlled by Thomas Fortune Kyan. Mr. Ryan, Mr. Belmont and Mr. Morgan have
municipal work in New York and Brooklyn that will involve the letting of contracts
amounting to more than $2.">(l.00(1.000. This group of financiers also has large financial inter
ests in man) of the great cities, ami wherever the) work they need a political boss. Some
ol their bosses Work under the name of Democrats and some bear the Republican label, but
they all work for their masters. These big financiers have been using the organizations of the
two leading parties to do 'their service.-William Jennings Bryan in telegram to The St. Louis
Post -1 lispatch.

Most Notorious Convict Es
capes From Prison With Two
Dangerous Pals.
Bill Minor. most famous convict in
rhp Georgia penitentiary. escaped once
more from liu- state- prison near
MillbdgPA'ille ami t<»da? is at large with
offi'-pis t hroughciit iniddh Georgia
hunting him. Minor took with him \\ .
J. Widemantp, serving - a life sentence
for a killing in Tattnall county, and W
M. Wiggins, sent up for a year from
Tattnall for carrying a pistol. Minor,
cir George Anderson, as rails him
self. is unde life smitem-< for holding
up and robbing a Southern railway
pu • n gC’ - train in Hall county, be
tween Gainesville am' Toccoa, early in
1911.
Chairman Puts
Blame on Guards.
Chairman Ft. E. Davidson. ol the
-late prison commission, blames the
escape of Minor anti the two other
convicts to criminal carelessness of
Charles Jenkins, night guard. amt Sto
vall. night floor walker.
"Had these two mon been doing
their duty," said Chairman Davidson,
"it appears to me that it would have
been absolutely impossible , for these
men to have gotten away; particular!}’
Rill' Minor, xx ho was chained to a con
crete post in the center tow of cots
and within about twenty feet of Jen
kins. The fact that the convicts forced
their way through iron bats three
quarters of an inch thick under tin
glare of :.’a electric lights, proves that
Stovall also could not have been doing
his duty. He is not supposed to sit
down ;tt all during the night, but to
rr.l- continuously up and down tin
larg, sleeping room and count his pris
oners ever} hoit ”
"Clarence Poster. auditor and book
keeper at the state farm, told me over
tile phone todax that the mon had out-'
side aid in that Ibex wore furnished
saw • sot their work. He stated that
tlie escape was not discovered until
midnight, mid the men might have been
gone for an hour before they were
mis-cd
Ever} possible precaution has been
taken with Rill' Miner since his escape
last Octobef. and the fact that ho got
awax again i.tn prove only negligence
on tile part of the guards hired hv the
date."

, Flat Capelines in White Tagal
Now Reign in the Centers
’ of Fashion.
i
PARIS. June 28. —At last there has
come a change in hats. The black hat
with its aigrette or long white wing
has been worn until the women have
grown tired of their every reflection
in the glass. The black hat had be
' come a kind of uniform and at last
the milliners awoke to the want of
> animation it gave to trade.
! A woman can be tempted to buy
three or four hats if she finds in each
a variety, but when nothing but black,
and black and white. In hard straw, is
I to bo found on all the stands, even in
the most luxurious of showrooms, it is
difficult to make a client see the nee-
’ essity of more than two of this de
’ scription.
The flat capelines in white tagal now
are most in demand, for there is noth
ing more suitable for an open air fete
I than a. large hat. To give some idea
of the hat that everybody seemed anx
ious to have —with the modification that
the complexion, the style of bairdress
ing, or the toilet demanded—the typi
cal shape must be described. It has
a round crown ano the front
1 of the brim not deep enough to cast
too much shade, and is covered with
a pretty drapery of white embroidered
tulle. On. either side is a spray of
roses or irises, mauve or yellow, or
hot tenses, peach and blue.
With these large hats it is impossi
ble to wear anything but a plain tulle
veil.

trary. all the eldest sons and daughters
must consider themselves as lucky if
they are just normal.
The professor was asked to account
for the alleged Increase of criminality
in France. His answer was one word,
"depopulation." Ho afterward explained
himself thus:
The smaller families are the more
chance there is of the children turning
out idiots or criminals, xvhich is much
the same thing. There is a much high
er proportion of degeneration and im
becility among first-born children than
among others. The limitation of fami
lies, therefore, makes for the increase
of abnormal individuals. The best stock
is produced only al the fourth or fifth
birth.
Parents, therefore, who desire to
bring into the world the finest offspring
they are capable of producing should
have at least five children.

BALTIMORE, June 27.—Fol
lowing the first unsuccessful bal
lot tor the Democratic nominee
for president, the following two
facts became apparent:
William Jennings Bryan, by his
attack on Ryan, Belmont and
Morgan, has eliminated Woodrow
Wilson and William J. Gaynor as
possible nominees.
And, the New York delegation
has decided to withhold its
strength from all leading candi
dates until it has a chance to
throw its strength to some dark
horse with the hope of carrying
him in.
Bryan's attack on the three
great financiers changed the en
tire horizon. Ryan has been call
ed the principal Wilson man be
hind the money. The New Jersey
governor was his first choice, and
his views were shared by Morgan
and Belmont.
In case Wilson proved unsuccessful,
It is generally admitted that Ryan
hoped his delegates would; hold togeth- I
er with the Idea of blocking any other
leading candidate When it should be
come necessary to look for a dark horse
Ryan hoped to be able to throw the
Wilson strength to Gaynor
The New York mayor has done In
valuaft-’e service to Ryan. Morgan and
Belmont. Most of the delegates are
conversant with these facts and the
consensus of opinion is that Wilson's
chances have faded away along xvith /
those of Gaynor. '
The vote of the New York delegation
for Harmon caused considerable/
amusement, the admission being marie
that the wily bors. Charles M. Mur-
