Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, after a conference with state Democratic leaders at the Eellevue-Stratford Hotel this afternoon, spread a wet blanket upon City Solicitor Ryan's candidacy for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination. "It is unfortunate. saia. mi Judse-elect Bonniwell clothed Mr.

Ryan" candidacy in the way he did. by charac- rizing the leadership of the par ty as se.fish and incompetent. 1 sincerely hope that the progress of the campaign wnl develop a greater regard for accuracy than was evinced at th start." Congressman Palmer said he favored a fair field and no favors for aspirants, but he did not frown upon the suggestion that after the first of the year sentiment would probably crystallize about some Democrat for governor in "harmony with the Democratic national administration and the Democratic organization within the state." PRAISES DEMOCRACY. "Speaking for he said. "I favor nominating a Democrat for United States senator and a Democrat for governor.

The Democratic party made Its fight on definite principles and should adhere to them. My belief is that hope for decent government in this state lies with the Democratic party, and, judging from the fact that the forces for good government cam within 30.000 votes this month of carrying Philadelphia and within 5.000 votes of prevailing in Allegheny county, the prospects of the Democratic party sweeping the state next year appear excellent."

The Russian dynasty Is in imminent danger of dying out and the present Czar Nicholas is likely to be the last of the Romanoffs to occupy the imperial throne, according to a writer in "Free Russia," a newspaper appearing here.

He says: "The young Alexis, the emperor's only son, is suffering from an incurable disease tuberculosis of the bones, it is said and can be kept alive only a few months longer. "The emperor himself has become the victim of fits of melancholy. 0 "His consort, the unfortunate empress, is suffering acutely from a complete nervous breakdown. "The question arises, therefore, who will be the heir to Nicholas or will he be the last of the autocrats of Russia? The daughters of Nicholas cannot ascend the throne because Paul who hated his august mother, Catherine the Great, made a law whereby it became impossible for a woman to reign in Russia. SUCCESSION IN QUESTION.

"Therefore; jn casa of the demise of Nicholas the throne should fall to his brother Michael. But this is hardly possible since he has renounced all his rights and has married morganatically a Russian woman with whom ho lives happily far from court intrigues." The writer then discusses the grand dukes, but finds Insuperable objections to any of them becoming czar. The czarevitch, born August 12, 1904, whose probably fatal illness is asserted by "Free Russia," has been the subject of many reports in the last year. It was reported once he had been stabbed on the royal yacht Standart, the commander of which later committed suicide. recent alleged unnatural death of the commander of the Peterhof, the Russian royal family's home palace, served to revive stories of the heir-ap-parent's illness.

M'NAIR'S JOKE TOO MUCH FOR SINGLE TAXERS (Continued From Page One.) of candidates by the convention be read. The chairman read two, which were mild in terms, and said he had no more. Before the selection of candidates had been made Mr.

George left the hall, disgyted, many others following him. When the selection of candidates was taken up McNair attempted to close the nominations on the name of Michael J. Ryan for governor, but there was sucn strenuous objection that the chairman had to reopen the matter. Ryan, who is city solicitor of Philadelphia, was represented by Paul Demoll and Haines D. Albright, assistants in his office.

They were ably assisted by McNair. On the first ballot for governor Ryan received 13 votes, while 14 were cast, against him. After many of Ryan's opponents had left the hall. McNair renewed his nomination of Ryan and it was adopted. Roland S.

Morris of Phila delphia was rejected aa a candidate for governor by 2 to 15: William H. Berry, by 3 to 10; Congressman Warren Worth Bailey of Johnstown, by 4 to and Sec retary of Labor W. B. Wilson, by 2 to 11. The chairman voted on the Ryan indorsement, making it 14 to 14, but when objections were raised he had to withdraw hie vote.

Berry was selected for United States senator with little or no opposition. The same is true of Morris for lieutenant governor and McNair for secretary of internal affairs. Most of the opponents to the McNair program left the hall before the latter votes were taken. NAMES WITHDRAWN. David Fitzgerald of Montgomery county, Michael Boyle of Cambria.

J. T. Robinson of Dauphin and McKnight of Philadelphia were named for congress-men-at-large, but all withdrew except aicKnight. An executive committee composed of McNair, Boyle, James H. Dix of Philadelphia, Chairman Prizer and Walter O.

Stewart of Reading was named to fill vacancies. Robert Devlne of Erie left the hall during the proceedings, declaring that it was evident that a prearranged plan had beep, made to "railroad" things. The same charge was made by Dix of Philadelphia. The whole affair was so ridiculous that many of the delegates went out into the street and indulged in a good laugh. Willie McNair and a few of his followers, particularly the Ryan boosters, took the affair seriously and jammed through the program.

McNair at times was even compelled to laugh at the humor of the affair. The idea of a few men trying to dictate to the Democrats of Pennsylvania whom they should nominate for state office, however, struck most of the delegates as a farce and they left the hall thoroughly disgusted. The convention was marked by continuous wrangling but Willie McNair got away with his game. FLOOD CARRIES AWAY BRIDGE. MONONGAHELA.

Unions Are Praised By Clarence Darrowj Clarence Darrow, who as defended labor, labor leaders and himself in famous cases, told about 1.000 Pittsburgh labor leaders and workingmen in Labor Temple last nisrht that slowly and surely the workingmen and women were coming into possession of the earth. He said labor unions have done more for the benefit of the world than any other institution in the past 100 years. With applause punctuating every sentence and his voice raised high so that he could compete with a dance that was golnsr on in the auditorium above the assembly hall, Darrow delivered a speech on "Capital and Labor" tinged with bitterness, yet expressing optimism for the future.

Valentine Barie, president of the Iron City Central Trades Council, presided. Darrow said the constitution cf the United States needed revising, as it was made during an agricultural age before factories, mills and mines had been operated and industry revolutionized. He said the supreme court checked humanitarian legislation. He also said the tariff is a boys question and that the golden rule was forgotten in modern business. That it is inmossible to preserve a union with an open shop was another of the labor attorney's declarations.

Capi- tal and labor, he said, were eternal enemies and not friends. He devoted a large part of his rtalk to prove this. In concluding Darrow told why he Is not a member of the Socialist party and predicted that throughout the world the Socialistic state is the next phase of civilization. The ballot and industrial unionism were both urged by him as means toward the end. 1 ONCE MORE HUERTA BOLDLY DEFIES U.

They will take with them all the locomotive and the rolling stock of the railroad to Jalapa and Cordoba. The new Mexican senate failed to organize today as a quorum was lacking. The senators representing the- Catholic party were absent.

The chamber of deputies met and effected organization late today. REFUSES TO REPLY. WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. The statement from Provisional President Huerta that he joined General Carranza in repudiating mediation in any form by the United i states was read to Secretary Bryan but he made no comment.

At the close of the serevice. Mr. Babcock. who was master of ceremonies, read the following letter from President Wood-low Wilson, who was intimately associated with Dr. Ormond in Princeton unlvtrsity: Secretary of the Board of Trustees, Grove Dear Sir Few things in my life have Y-tn harder to reomiie myself to than my enforced decision not to be present at tne inauguration or fresiasm urmuw.

Nothing but the most imperative consideration of nubile duty led to this decision. and 1 am strengthened by the thought that he himself wouid have aoae earne under like circumstances. I would be obliged if you will say to those who will be present on the occasion of his Inauguration that in my opinion there is no finer man in the country than Alexander T. Ormond. a man of pure conscience, extraordinary intellectual power and a character as simple as it is eound and transparent.

I have been associated with him for many years and throughout these years my confidence in him has steadily grown and been confirmed. Again, in conducting discussions upon universities and other subjects I have been struck by the fact that you had only to state the truth to him to have it instantly accepted without cavil or evasion of an sort. I feel that I must warmly congratulate Grove City on having obtained such a leader to follow the fine man who founded and built the college up. I am sure that association with him will be a constant Inspiration to those who act with him and hat they will from month to month and from year to year believe more and more that the best things in the world are possible and attainable. Cordially and sincerely yours.

CARRANZAISTS SEIZE JUAREZ J3Y STRATEGY (Continued From Page One.) with bullet holes through their hearts. Several reports are that. 25 or 30 were executed. All officers of the federal army will be put to death. Major Cornu of Villa's staff announced tonight.

The soldiers, he said, would be pardoned and given an opportunity to join the rebel army. FEDERAL LEADER MISSING. General Francisco Castro, commander of the Juarez garrison, is among the missing. It is the general opinion that he escaped. No trace of him or his body has been found.

His sword and epaulets were found in his residence and General Villa taken them for souvenirs. El Paso police this afternoon thought they had captured General Castro in 1 Paso, but the prisoner proved to be a colonel of the Juares garnson. He was sent to Fort Bliss as a prisoner. Bullets fell thick In 1 Paso In the attack, nd Chester L. Burnett, a messenger boy, was shot through the hand while walking in the streets.

Almost all the downtown business structures were hit by bullets. United States troops took station near the international boundary, and held the Americans away from the danger zone as much as possible, while the battle lasted. REBELS FIRE ACROSS RIVER. Just before daylight this morning Lieutenant Carlos VaJesquez Mendez of the Mexican federal artillery in Juarez, a prisoner in the hands of the rebels, made a uaen across one or the international bridges for El Paso and liberty. There was a fusillade of shots from the rebel guards and bullets fell among the United States soldiers cn the American aide of the river.

American soldiers rushed toward the river, as if to return the fire, and the rebel officer in command threw up his hand, as a signal, that the firing had ceased and immediately sent an apology. Major R. E. L. Michle, commanding the American troops, sent Deputy United States Marshal Charles Moore over the bridge to tell the rebel officer that under no circumstances were his men to shoot toward American territory.

The lieutenant having succeeded in reaching American soil, at the feet of the American officers, wounded in the leg, he was sent the El Paso police station. STRATEGY WINS CITY. It was by one of the cleverest strategies in the history of Mexico that Juarez was taken. General Villa, with General Her-rera. was in Chihuahua City Thursday, reported to be attacking that town.

Federal troops were rushed to the reinforcement of the Chihuahua garrison, but Villa never really pushed bis attack there. By pre-arrangement. trains were made ready to convey his army into Juarez last nig-ht, while all federal officers in northern Mexico believed him to be exerting every energy to take Chihuahua. Leaving a small force of men there, he took 7.000 of his troops aboard the train, which reached Juarez at the time a federal troop train was expected. Not once was he challenged.

Under cover of darkness, the rebels surrounded the town, save the river fronv next to the American border, and a concerted attack was made, with the artillery doing much of the work. The federals were so completely demoralized by the attack tha'i they offered no serious resistance. Order was restored quickly in Juarez after the capitulation, and this afternoon at 2 o'clock street car service between El Paso and Juarez was resumed and Americana began to flock to the Mexi- You know, of course, that at Xo Concert, No Lecture, Xo Theater, Xickelotleon nor any other place of Entertainment or Instruction would the usher DARE seat you on a thing like the usual Piano Player Bench.

can city. Little damage was done in Juarez, as the rebels had no cannon. Villa assured Mayor C. E. Kelly of El Paso that all Americans would receive protection.

They met in the center of the international bridge at noon today, and later Mayor Kelly accompanied Villa to the Juarez customs house, the new rebel headquarters, where they talked for a few minutes. Mayor Kelly on his return ordered" the bridges opened and traffic between the towns was resumed. Villa expressed regret that an American had been killed and declared that if the Federals came from Chihuahua to attempt to retake Juarez he would meet them south of the town and prevent a battle that would eendanger Americans la El Paao. He said he had (destroyed the railroad to Chihuahua. REBELS ATTACKING VICTORIA.
