RACE WAR IN CUBA
NO DOUIIT OF WIDESPREAD PDOT
AMONG NEGROE&
Government Take Prompt Step* to
Meet Any Uprising Among Blacks
I Dlsaatlfled With Political Status.
A cablegram from Havana says
there Is no room for doubt of the existence
of a negro conspiracy extending
to all the provinces of the island
with the apparent intention of taking
up arms against the government on
Tuesday last, which was the tenth anniversary
of Cuban Independence.
The negroes appear to have become
aroused to rebellion by the denial
of what seems to them their
just political rewards for services
rendered in the war of independence,
in which they constituted a large
part of the Cuban forces. The feeling
against the Government has been
intensified by a law denying the ne
Xl ? t ?X. A. I ? A 1 I i I
groos me ngui to urgauuu a political
party.
The principal trouble now is in the
vicinity of Sagua La Grand? in Santa
Clara province and Cruese, vjkere two
armed parties are operating, and in
ID-' ionta province, whore several bands
are converging on Guantanamo city
with apparent purpose of making a
display of force at that place. The
rural guard dispersed one small party
and captured two others.
The situation is considered sufficiently
grave for the government to
dispatch a column of 1,200 men from
Cainp Columbia, composed of cavalry
and Infantry, with field and machine
guns, bound for.Santa Clara and Orienta
provinces.
The secretary of the interior, Senor
Bruo, said that there was no doubt
about the widespread racial conspiracy
which the government is determined
to deal with drastically, but
that up to the present the only danger
points are Santa Clara and Orients.
There are no symptoms of serious
trouble, he added, in other parts of
the island.
The situation resembles that preceding
the last revolution, when the
negroes in February, 1906, conspired
to make a simultaneous attack on all
the rural guard posts, but only attacked
that Guanbacoa, the garrison
of which was massacred. This
was a prelude to the general revolution
which broke out in August of
that year.

Senate Committee Report Condemns

The senate commerce committee
Friday considered the report on the
Titanic disaster, which will be submitted
to the senate next Tuosday.
It will be a sweeping arraignment of
the conditions under whch the Titanic
raced along through the iceberg
area to her doom. It is understood
the report will severoly criticise Captain
Smith, of the Titanic, as mainly
responsible for the disaster, because
of failure to heed the warnings of
other vessels; the British board of
trade for tax inspection; J. Bruce
Ismay, who was a passenger, and will
point to the lack of discipline in the
time of danger. Captain Lord, of the
Californian, will figure in the responsibility
because of failure to take necessary
steps when near the Titanic,
whose rocket signals of distress were
seen aboard the Californian. Congress
will be asked to reward Cap

TEDDY BEATS TAFT

HARMON HAS A SUGHT ADVANTAGE
OVER WILSON.
IN THE OHIO PRIMARY
"
Roosevelt Seems Certain to Have
Won Twenty Out of the Fortytwo
Districts, and Harmon Seems
to Have Led Wilson and Will Get
Majority of Delegates.
On the face of the early returns
In Ohio's first Presidential preference
primary Tuesday, Col. Theodore
Roosevelt led the Republican ticket
by 3 to 2 over President Taft, and
Governor Judson Harmon, of Ohio,
led Governor Woodrow Wilson on
the Democratic ticket, by a somewhat
smaller percentage. The returns,
however, were given on a
basis of complete figures from little
more than half the precincts out of
a total of 5,192 precincts in the
State.
President Taft appeared to have
carried Cincinnati by a large margin
and also Tolodo and Dayton, among
the larger cities. This was more
man onset by the vote given Col.
Roosevelt in Cleveland, Columbus
and other cities. The Roosevelt lead
in the north end of the State, seemed
to give the former President an advantage
which Mr. Taft could not overcome
by his vote In the south end
of the State, including Cincinnati,
Ills home, and the rural dstricts.
Unrmnn'o r> o m ti 1 rrr? nianncftfB flo.
splrte the early figures, declared that
their candidate had carried the State.
They said they based thlB statement
on the heavy vote they expected had
been given him In the country dis-!
trlcts. Governor Wilson's chief
strength, they said, had been In
Cleveland, where Mayor Newton D.
Baker had waged a strong fight
against Harmon, Mayor Baker in a
statement declared Governor Wilson
had carried Ohio by a vote of 2 to 1.
Both Champ Clark and Col. Bryan,
although their names were not on
the preference ballot and they were
not represented by delegates, were
given a scattering vote, which when
final returns have been received may
effect the outcome of the WilsonHarmon
race.
Out of 21 Congressional districts
In the State, totals computed at a
time when fewer than half the precincts
were counted, indicated that
Roosevelt will have 20 of the 42 district
delegates and that Taft will
have 14, while the returns are so incomplete
that 8 delegates at present
cannot be counted on either side.
Apparently Mr. Taft has the 1st,
2nd, 6th, 7th, 8th, 13th, and 15th
district delegates. Mr. Roosevelt is
believed to have won the delegates
in the 4th, 5th, 10th, 11th, 12th,
14th, 17th, 19th, 20th, and 21st. The
vote in the 3rd is very close and it
Is in the 9th and 16th. Friends of
President Taft declare he has carried
the 18th, but Roosevelt supporters
will not concede this.
Apparently Governor Harmon has
carried 14 out of the 21 districts,
giving him 26 out of the 42 delegates
to the National Convention. If this
proves true, it also will give him the
C nt. larcro frnrn th? St.fl.tft.
In the call of the Democratic Convention
It was stipulated that the
winner of the primary should name
delegates at largo.
Governor Wilson's managers claim
the 4th, 5th, 8th, 9th, 20th, and 21st
districts. The Harmon managers declared
that beyond doubt they had
won the 2nd, 3rd, 7tli, 10th, 11th,
13t.h, 14 th, 15 th, 17 th' 18 th, and
10th districts. The 12th and lGth
were not claimed by either side.
Scattering Itoturns.
First returns in Tuesday's primary
from the four largest cities in the
State, show:
In Columbus: HaPihoh 4 to 1 over
Wilson; Roosevelt 2 to 1 over
Tuft.
In Toledo: Taft 2 to 1 over Roosevelt.
In Cincinnati: Taft 50; Roosoveli
In Cleveland: Wilson 3 to 2 over
Harmon, and one Republican precinct
counted gives Taft 33; Roose
vclt 11); DaFolletto 6.
Complete Democratic returns from
199 precincts out 5,192 in the State,
give: Wilson, 3,133; Harmon, 2,554.
Complete returns from 31 precincts
in Cincinnati, Governor Harmon's
homo, give Wilson 491 and

Unofficial roturns from 30 Cleveland
precincts show Wilson leading
Harmon 3 to 1.
First two precincts In Dayton give
Wilson 32; Harmon 9.
Seventeen precincts out of 457 in
Hamilton County, (Cincinnati), give
Taft 1,180 and Roosevelt 670.

Wills of George D. Widener and

grandfather of the deceased, announced
the endowment of $4,000,*

for Crippled Children.
IS STILL IN THE RING
TAFT CLAIMS THAT HIS NOMINATION
IS CERTAIN.
Ifltnei ? Statement in Which He Says
He Hm More Tlum a Majority of
i the Convention.
Claiming that 570 delegates to the
Chicago convention, or 30 more than
enough to assure him the nomination,
President Taft Wednesday in a statement
declared he was going into New
Jersey to "make assurance doubly
sure." He left Washington Thursday
for Philadelphia at seven o'clock
Thursday morning and made his first
political speech at Camden Thursday
evening.
The president's statement was issued
after a day of activity at the
White House. Political conferences
with his managers and appointments
with members of the cabinet were
followed at four o'clock by a meeting
of the full cabinet. It was stated
later that this meeting was devoted
to "routine business," but members
of the cabinet admitted that the political
situation had been reviewed in
considerable detail.
"Our opponents quote from a
statement of mine, made in Cleveland,
that the fight in Ohio, my home
State, much to my gratification,
would be the decisive one," said the
president in his statement, "and
would settle the question of my nomination.
I shall have at least 17
votes from Ohio, including the delegates
at large, for we have every assurance
that we shall control the
Stat? convention.
This will constitute a clear majority
in the national conventions.
Indeed, in addition to the votes from
Ohio, delegates elected for me from
other States, of which I have been
advised since my Cleveland statement,
give me at the most conservative
estimate 570 out of the 1,078
votes in the national convention?30
more than the number necessary to
nominate.
"I am going to New Jersey to take
part in the coming campaign there
for the same reason that I went to
Ohio, and such delegates as we may
receive from New Jersey will thus
make assurance doubly sure."
Earlior in the day Congressman
McKinley, director of the Taft headquarters,
claimed "at least f?00" delegates
for the president. The president's
estimate, while smaller, was
declared at the White House to represent
"rock bottom figures," which
were expected to be materially increased.
The claim to the six delegates
at largo in Ohio was made by
the prosident after reassuring mes
sagos from Ms Ohio managers.

Clarence Ylrgil Thompson Richeson,
native of Virginia, pastor of the
Immanuel Baptist church at Cambridge,
was electrocuted at 12:10
o'clock Tuesday morning in the
death house of the State prison at
Charlestown, Mass. The crime for
which Richeson paid the penalty
Tuesday morning was the murder of
his sweethoart, 19-yoar-old Avis Llnnell.
Richeson confessed to giving her
poison, which caused her death October
14, 1911. The current was
turned on at 2:10:02 and the prisoner
was declared dead at 12:17,
The former clergyman was outwardly
calm when ho entered the
leath chamber and ho maintained
his composuro while the straps and
electrades were being adjusted as ho
sat in the electric chair.
When Richeson Monday afternoon
reflected that ho probably had less
than 12 hours to live he expressed a
desire to see ills brother, Douglas
Kicheson of Chicago, who was in the
city. Douglas Kicheson decided on
Monday afternoon that ho would not
go to seo his brother.
The condemned man slept soundly
four four hours Monday morning,
after being awake nearly oJl
night He was calm and even
cheerful at times during the night,
occasionally singing a hymn or repeating
his favorite scriptural passages.
Kicheson spept much of his
time in prayer and in reading his
Bible.

ho was sitting on tho edge of his cot,
apparently enjoying nis smoKO, wnen
Deputy Warden Allen entered his
cell with the black suit of clothes te
be worn during the execution. Richeson
nodded calmly to the deputy, but
said nothing.
Sunday and during the afternoon
Monday tho prisoner lay on his cot
but Monday afternoon and night he
3at up most of tho time. Attorney
Morse, who visited Richeson during
tho afternoon, found his client calm
and anxious to have the sentence of
tho law carried out during tho night.
Mr. Morse In an interview later,
said: "Richeson has made up his
mind to die and ho does not want
tiy delay. This has been a long
i,fory and the last chapter is bolng
written today.
"Richeson is going to die without
holding a grudge against any one.
He had scarcely uttered a harsh word
and to mo personally and to thoso
who como In contact with him, he
has again and agaiu expressed his
gratitude."

WILL WRECK PARTY
PRESIDENT TAFT BAYS THAT IS
WHAT TEDDY WILL DO.
If the Republicans Do Hoi Give Hte '
the Nomination For thi Pi fiililm
cy.
At Cincinnati in a most bitter &n<?
scathing denunciation of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt,, President Taft Sabj
urday night declared that the "cer!
tainty of his defeat for the Republic *'
can nomination must be a source of
profound congratulations to all patriotic
citizens;" declared that his predecessor
in the White House would
wreck the Republicaa party if he lo
not chosen by the Republican national
convention , and oompared Mr.
Roosevelt to Louis XIV, of France,
who said "the State; I am it."
The attack was in the form of a
statement in which the President said
in part: "Mr. Roosevelt says that ha
is the Republican party and that if
ho Republican national committee, la
passing on the credentials of delegates
for tho preliminary roll in the convention,
shall hold to bo unfounded
Ms many flimsy contests, he will decline
to abide the judgment of tnoeo
having authority.
"Tho inference from this is that ha
will bolt tho convention because a.
duly constituted Republican national
committee, in passing on the credentials
of delegates for the prolimary
roll in tho convention, shall hold to
be unfounded his many flimsy con
tests, ho will decline to abldo tha
judgment of thoso having authority,.
"The inference from this is that he
will bolt the convention because a
duly constituted Republican national
committee shall, after a judicial Investigation,
refuse to seat his contesting
delegates. If this edict is to
bo heeded, then tho holding of any
convention at all is perfunctory and
superfluous.
"The arrogance of this statement,
that ho is the Republican party, finds
no parallel In history, save in the fomouB
words of Louis XIV, 'The State*
I am It'.
"With clearly traceable promedftatlon,
ho projected contests without
tho slightest reason therefor*
in many cases weeks after tho
regular conventions had been held,
merely to make a basis for a camipaign
of bluff and buster. Now
h0 threatens that unless his campaign
thus carried on is to be recognized
as successful, and unless honestly elected
delegates shall be thrown out
in sufllcient numbers to give him a
majority, ho will break from the party
and try to ruin that which ho can
not rule.
"I appeal to all Republicans to say
whothor a man who assumes this attitude
does not forfeit hla claim to
any right to become a candidate in a
Republican convention. It can not
bo that Republicans will countenance
such a breach of party fealty, such
treason to tho party's properly constituted
government and such defiance
of tho will of Its majority".
"Mr. Roosevelt has not soon fit to
answer tho question whether, if he
is nominated and elected, he will discontinue
the Steel suit and tho Harvester
Trust suit, nor has he answered
tho question whether he will aocept
a fourth term."
