PLATF0EM IS ADOPTED.

After the senators had thus marked Democrats as traitors, and had made a plea for harmony within the Republican, ranks, the committee adopted a platform, prepared under the direction of nrose, which kicked harmony out of the window to shatter its bones on Broad street. It indicates that Penrose proposes to give battle to Governor Brumbaugn and the latter' lieutenants, the Vares of Philadelphia, and Public Service Commissioner William A. Magee of Pittsburgh, at the first opportunity. Tn the second naraeranh of t.h nlat- form ls a nattering eulogv upon Senator Penrose as a statesman, and a right hook to the jaw for Governor Brumbaugh, Just a passing reference is made to the governor, but the few word carry a swift punch.

MEN SPEAKERS FOR PRESIDENT Tributes Paid Wilson in Addresses and Applause at Meetings. HUGHES IS ARRAIGNED Campaigners Say Record Shows He Has Done Nothing for Workers. Pittsburgh and vicinity was stormed yesterday with tributes to President Wilson, in the campaign of the people to re-elect him this fall. Among the men who were speakers here yesterday were Kent E. Keller of Illinois, Rowland B.

Mahany of Buffalo, formerly a Kepublican and representative of the Buffalo district in Congress, as well as one-time minister to Ecuador; A. M. Thompson, nominee for Congress in the Twenty-ninth district, a former Republican, and V. W. Reno, a member of the Beaver county bar, also a former Republican.

The meetings, whose speakers for the most part have been Republicans untW the present issue with President "Wilson os the standard bearer arose, were marked by the presence of Republicans In the audiences who joined with the others in applause for the nation's chief executive, who was referred to as the modern Moses who has led the people of the nation out of bondage and must continue to be their protector. NORTHSIDE MEETING- The principal Greater Pittsburgh meeting last night was held under the auspices of the Northside Democratic Club on the lawn of the Northside Carnegie library in Federal street The speakers were Illinois State Senator Keller, Congressional Nominee Thompson and Attorney Reno. R. E. Smith, president of the Northside club, introduced the speak ers.

Ir. Thompson, the first speaker, while dwelling chiefly upon the achieve ments of President Wilson's administration, incidentally held up the record of Representative Stephen G. Porter who, he said, "wishes to base his need for re-election on the strength of an address in which Champ Clark said that It were better to re-elect a man who knows the ins and outs of a political office than to elect one who has not previously represented his district." Mr. Thompson then read a long list of bills upon which Mr. Porter did not vote and said "Mr.

Porter has spent most of his time as a lawyer in the tr ivuii. ui rtiicgncuj i.uuuijr uaaea "fr his own personal interest rather than representing his people In the Legislature." SENATOR KELLER SPEAKS. The next speaker was Mr. Keller. Seme of hi? salient points were that if President Wilson had not forestalled the railroal strike with the eight-hour legislation Pittsburgh would have starved to death in six weeks.

"Mr. Hughes says he is against the Adamson bill because it really meant a raise in wages. Mr. Hughes is known to be against any raise in wages for the working man. Hughes came out against the currency law enacted under the Wilson administration a law which makes panics impossible.

Consequently if Mr. Hughes is elected we may expect a repeal of that law so that panics lik-e those of 1907, 1893 and 1873 may be repeated. He wou'd also repeal the child labor law, aga' ist which he stands, and the children vould be put iback into the toils." He closed his remarks by declaring that a vote for Hughes really means a vote for war. Mr. Rf-no was introduced as "a black Republican who had taken the stand for Wilson." "I have taken part in every Republican parade since 1S76," he said, "until the last one, and I di not want to enter in a funeral march.

The Republican party is dead; and I think at the November election we shall be able to write hn the tombstone of the old party: Here" lies the body of the G. O. it freed the slave and enslaved the free. "We have had three revolutions in the history of our countrv," he continued. "The first was when Washington declared Jndopendtnce against foreign power; the second when Lincoln united the country, and the third is now under way and it will end when Wilson frees the people from the bondage of tyranny." ATTACKS "MILITARY RING." Mr.

Reno attacked particularly what he called a "military ring" in the United States, which seeks to betray- the country it may enrich Itself. He gave figures to show that this ring of manufactures munitions and sells them at exorbitant rates. "The du Pont Powder Company." he said, "sells us .30 caliber powder for SO cents a pound while the Government finds that it can be made for SO cents. In case of war in this country, as is in Europe this company would make over a day. And this company wants Mr.

Hughes as president because he is working for their interests. We want preparedness to fight this military ring." In Pitcairn last night a large crowd of railroad men listened to addresses of Mr. Mahany, Torrence S. Stiffler, an old line Republican recently turned for Wilson, and United States Assistant District Attorney B. B.

McGinnis. Mr. Mahany made a pita for the election of M. Clyde Kelly and referred to John Dalzell as a mouthpiece of the trusts In this district. The Pitcairn gathering formed a Wilson-Marshall club and elected the following officers: John W.

Campbell, presi3 dent; C. P. Rhody, vice president; E. L. Grubb, secretary, and B.

J. Clark! treasurer. NOON SPEECH STIRS. In his noon address in hMrlnliartoi-s yesterday former Representative Mahany said of President Wilson: "I don't he needs any eulogy from me or any other person. His work speaks for him.

He hears nothing of these weak cries of mine or others in praise. There, on the pages of history, will stand his deeds in this great hour when the world is torn as never before. When the sounds of this strife and the flames of it clear away then the whole world will look back with gratitude to this man. not as the leader of a political faction, but as one of the best of the world's great statesman. "How has he stood in these great problems, especially in his attitude toward the war? When the crisis faced him he stood calm tool nnnnsp nnlv via WA.

"President Wilson has led the United iates out of the house of Egypt and out I the bondage of war. He is the Moeea his time, whose heart is with us, his children, and he leads -to that promised fend of peace and prosperity. Are any you, who now stand with him on the Parade and Meeting in Memorial Hall to Feature Welcome Here.

Train delay in transporting the Tenth Regiment from the Mcx can border to Pittsburgh is responsible for setting the reception to be tendered the soldiers forward another day. The regiment will not reach Pittsburgh until tomorrow- morning. Its schedu'e first cofied for the arrival yesterday afternoon, but train postponed the affair. A message received yesterday stated the reg ment would not reach Pitsburgh until 9:30 o'clock tomorrow morning. Ordinance Officer Murray G.

Livingston, who is in charge of th arrangements for the reception, said the affair would go over and he expected that the additional delay would not detract from the enthusiasm ehawn by those who expect to participate. The troops 11 detrain at the Pittsburgh Lake En? station, and will march in Smithiield street and Fifth avenue to Memor al Hail, Fifth avenue and Grant boulevard. The Spanish-American War Veterans, Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States and the Pittsburgh Military Train'ng Association will escort the Fighting Tenth in its parade through the city.

P. Kerr, president of council, will preside and the speakers will be former Congressman James Francis Burke and Congressman Thomas S. Crago. Following the meeting the troops will be served a picnic lunch in the banquet room. Arrangements will be made to care for 63 horses which the Government permitted the signal corps to take home with them for future use.

Mjor Fred- I erick G. Miller, commanding the field battalion, signal troops, sent a message requesting that temporary stabling be secured for the animals. The Third National Guard of Pennsylvania and the United States. Colonel George F. Kempe commanding, passed through the Pittsburgh district yesterday enroute to Philadelphia, the home of the organization.

The returned troopers will be received this morning by Governor Martin G. Brumbaugh and Philadelphia city officials. The soldiers were permitted to tread Pennsylvania soil for the first time in three months when the trains stopped in Pitcairn to change engines. Keystone Guardsman Dies From Injuries EL PASO. Oct.

9 Private Joseph A. Burthill, 23 years old, of Troop C. First Pennsylvania Cavalry, residing in 1130 Brown street, Philadelphia, who was Injured in the cavalry maneuvers on the plains north of Camp Stewart, Saturday afternoon, died in the base hospital in Fort Bliss, last night. His skull was fractured and he was injured internally when his horse fell on him. The First Squadron of Cavalry, consisting of Troops A and G.

under the command of Captain J. Franklin McFadden, acting major, was contesting against the Second Squadron, consisting of Troops B. C. and under the command of Major Joseph V. Cunningham.

Acting Major McFadden ordered a charge and the horse whiih Private Burt-hill was riding stepped in a prairie dog-hole and stumbled, rolling on the soldier. The young cavalryman never regained consciousness. His body will be shipped to Philadelphia today. This makes the seventh death in the Seventh division since it came to the border, four by accidents, wo by appendicitis and one by diabetes. "Church Must Bear Its Social Message" That the creeds of the past have come down soaked by the biood of the martyrs, and that the church of today must bear a social message to the people, was the declaration made by Dr.

Matthews, president of the Federal Council of Churches -and dean of the University of Chicaero, before the Baptist Ministerial Conference yesterday morning. "There never was a time in the history of the world when it was so resolutely setting its face toward the ideals of Jesus." he said. "In spite of exMsting eviis, I do not believe in the decadence of the present. In all the creeds of the past there Is no reference to the ethical qualities of the spiritual life. The work of the Federal Council of Churches is to interpret Christianity in teitiis of spiritual ethics." That back of ail the theories of evolution there is a power yet unaccounted for and that power is God, was the theme of a paper presented by Rev.

Dr. W. H. Vincent, former pastor of North United Presbyterian Church. Northside, now retired, before the ministers of his denomination.

He said in part: "Evolution is a most inexact, undefined, illusive term which has crept Into the vocabulary of science. It is something set up by man to represent a mysterious power which he preceives to neai wor. but whose sovereign power and authority and moral government he prefers not to acknowledge. Go-d works to carry out His designs of creation and Providence. Evolution with God in it is sane and scientific.

Without God in it, it ls atheism."

Spend a day in the country. Autumn is making the scenery gorgeous just now. Cars on Charieroi Scenic Route every half hour on the hour and half hour from Liberty tad Grant. A romance of more than two years culminated yesterday In the marriage of Miss Verna Wahrer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Henry Wahrer, 103 Braddock avenue. Rankin, and Will am F. J. Etter of Boston, an officer in Battery Seventh 'Field Artillery, United States army stationed at San Antonio, Tex. The weddin took place in San Antonio yesterday afternoon.

Miss Wahrer left Pittsburgh Friday and arrived in San Antonio Sunday. Etter was granted a 10-day furlough and he and his bride spend the time honeymooning in the South. At the expiration of the furlough Etter will return to his company and his bride will come fcack to Pittsburgh to reside until her husband's enlistment expires next June. The couple will establish a home then in Braddodk. They met in the East two years ago.

When Miss Wahrer returned home they corresponded, and when Etter urjed her to go to the border and have the ceremony performed she consented. There were no relatives present at the wedding, the only witnesses being members of Et-ter's company. pinnacle overlooking the promised land, going to deny him and vote for a man whose whole career has been one of legislation against you?" The packed auditorium rang with cheera In the name of Wi'ison, so that the speaker had to wait for silence. Then he spoke of Mr. Hughes.

"But why should I speak of the aspiring candidate who wishes to dethrone so great a statesman as our President. Other men in the past, doubtless, tried to defame Washington; a misguided wretch killed the noble Lincoln. We pity the poor assassin who knew no better history has turned a deaf ear to the sla derers of the father of our country. So it shall be with those who would seek to deiame our President. But I must aik you, what has Mr.

Hughes done f-r us? Ho was elected governor of Nev York; then he was made one of the nine men in the supreme court who held the live? and fortunes of 100,000,000 people in tneir grasp. But what has he done in a'i his official capacity? SPEAKS OF HUGHES. "He has vetoed bill after bill that has been offered in the interest of the working people. This man, who was in Washington for six yearsf. had not even the patriotism, the sense of duty to his country, to gc back to New York to register and vote.

Would you trust such a man as the executor of your will?" There were cries of "No, "Never," God forbid: "Then," continued the speaker, "would you trust him in this great crisis, when all civilization depends upon a man of integrity?" As one of the many bills in the in- terest of humanity In general that Mr. Hughes vetoed when he was governor of New York, the speaker cited a bilr a few years ago asking for the reduction of carfare to Coney Island to 5 cents. "Coney Island, it will be remembered," said Mr. Maheny, "is the breathing spot for the masses of New York. The people who can afford it, go there to get a breath of fresh air and a dip 'E the sea.

"WAS FOR BIG INTERESTS." A poor man, with his wife and five children on a Sunday could have gone tViro nnd Ha olr for 70 cents had the hill been passed. But he could not spend $1.40 because this represented nearly a day's work. Think of the lives of children Mr. Hughes could have saved by the 5-cent fare by giving them a breath of fresh air. But what did he care for the lives of infants, or the little pleasure of the working man! But he wanted to put more money into the pockets of the owners of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company.

And no company makes as much money aT this company. Think this over "We don't need to think it over." interrupted a man in the audience. "Well," concluded the speaker, "this is the work of a man who aspires to dese- crate the seat that is fit for a Washing- ton or a Lincoln. Former Representative speak Democratic headquarters at i noon, and tonight he will address a I meeting in Hanna's Hall, Copeland sta- tion. Senator Keiler at noon will ad- i dress an open air meeting at South Twenty-seventh and Carson streets, and tonight he will speak at a meeting in Norwood pavilion, Stowe township.

Awful, isn't it? Then the committeemen got nervous. They had left their swords and pistols at home and they shuddered to think what would happen to them if a great army of unpatriotic Democrats should suddenly march down Broad street and blow up the Belle-vue-Stratford Hotel as the first move in their fiendish destruction of the nation. For, be it remembered, that they were gathered on the top floor of the hotel, and it is a long way to the street, with nothing soft to drop on, as they all expected to go down feet first. Of course, they couM depend upon Penrose and Oliver, arrayed in all the glorious armor of great patriots to defen them, but the committeemen suspected that there might be four or five Democrats in expected attacking army. But no Democrats appeared on a tour destruction, and the Republican committeemen departed for their homes in safety.

It was a sad. sad story. PENROSE ON TARIFF. Listen to Senator Penrose: "Just as every nation In Europe was abandoning the free trade policy and coming to a protective tariff, we are on a free trade basis and have upon the statute books a tariff law with lower tariff duties than any law within 100 years, a law which will "leave us naked and exposed as soon, as the war is over, then it will be a question of industrial invasion, ibitter and merciless in character, to such an extent that it will surpass the cruelty of the military operations now being waged in Europe. "Under a Republican administration our industrial condition will have an opportunity, but with no protective tariff, industrial conditions will be the worst in the history of the American Republic." Now listen to Senator Oliver: "Looking forward, not as a Republican alone, but as an American who loves his country, I say to you, that I see no path of national safety that lies not over the ruins of the Democratic party, and it is up to you and it is up to me and it is up to everybody to forget all the past differences, to submerge all differences of opinion state affairs, and work with all the vigor that in us lies to bring about that ruin and to expel from Wash- ington the present administration and in- atall there the only party that, in more i i will A Tl1CrimiC yST3 Cilll NtT iVorth While fading San.

The sub-commtitee went on their vay ignoring both the suffragists and their opponents. The jruffragists wanted a plank pledging the Kepublican party to support the proposed suffrage constitutional, amendment in the next Legislature.

They received a nice juicy lemon, as suffrage as not mentioned In the platform. The platform was notewortny for what it did not say. It indorsed the national party platform on the tariff, preparedness and Americanism, but nothing on state issues. A resolution presented by the committee, eulogizing, the senatorial career of Mr. Oliver, was adopted unanimously.

LOCAL OPTION FAILS. Committeeman H. A. Davis of Altoona presented a local option plank for the platform. It was referred to the resolutions committee without debate, and the committee retired to consider it.

Davis pleaded for its adoption. This was opposed by Committeeman William E. Fin-ley of Philadelphia, a lieutenant of Governor Brumbaugh.

The rules of the state committee were changed to provide for the election of national committeeman by the committee for four years.
