Tuezda.-:. - :'. i DEMOCRACY'S LEADER. an LIkeVy 'to be Retained by North Carolina To Fight Rate Case. A dispatch from Washinton to lie Columbia State savs: That Williym Jennins Bryan m1V be retaineid: to act as counsel in the case aamt the railroads in the North Carolina fi-ght is contained in story published in the Washington Times tlii, afternoon. The matter is being gene._lly discussed here to day. Assistant Attorney General San ders haying failed to work a reconcil iation of the North Carolina situa tion in snteh a way as to relieve the president of a most embarrassing pos ition. indie here today point to the fact tha tI e administration will not after all -ive")its support tb Judge Pritchard. 11 ha been generallv as sumed that Presipent Roosevelt would not hesitate to /put into effect what ever instrumeialities he could com mand to 'Thold what is claimed to be federal authority in North Caro lina and the United -Stites marshals and the United States army both alike would practically be placed at the beck and call of Judge Pritchard, but it appears now that the president is fast nearing the point where he has about enouzh of this thing and will not' jeopard his great popularity by taking the part of the railroads. even though it come in the guise of sus taining the federal authorities. This is only as it is believed by those in the inner circles here. Remember.at this time there are not many inner circles here at present. The presi dent's position will not be fully known until the call from Judge Pritchard for marshals or troops comes. Officials here express the opinion that it is at least doubtful whether marshals would be sent if Judge Pritchard were to ask for them. Sueh a refusal, it is admitted would be exceptional, but it is not admitted that it would be entirely without pre cedent. The present administration, howev er. is not given to consider precedent very much. When the president wants to do a thing precedent need not be considered. Government officials in Washington who have been watching the progress of the negotiations between Gov. Glenn. United States Assistant Gener at Sanford and the Southern railway *be a satisfactory solution of the dif fieulty and that at any rate there will be no armed conflict of the state and federal forces. This latter state ment bears out the information ob tained the doubtfulness of the presi dent as to the use of deputy marshals or~ United States troops in response to any call from Judge Pritchard. It is not expected that Go'v. Glenn will recede from his attitude. They do think, however, that the Southern railway officers will eventually be guided by prudence, and after ma ture deliberation will give their con sent to some arrangement by which a resort to force will not present it self as a question to be passed upon by the federal authorities. Anather matter beinz discussed here today is the probability' of North Carolina .rcitaining William .Jennings Bryan t:' aet as counsel in the case against the railroads.

He has -warned fathers and mothers not to a! lo.w -their little ones to wander aim lessly about the streets. The Barish girl has been driven in sane by inhuman treatment, an ink. ling of which was first given to the ulic today. .She became separated from a party of friends at North Beach Wednesday. and that night was rescued by chance from the surf in which she was about to drown her self. She had been beaten black and blue and relieved' of her clothina. Driven mad through suffering she fou2iht her rescuer and only with diffi culty was placedl in restraint.

This is one o: the strongest stories James Hoppe has ever written, and sheds an ab solutely new light on the psycholog of the white man in the black man' country. "The Long Shift."
