Bank case reveals extensive loan web and dummy notes
The trial exposed large loans to Morse and Curtis with proceeds likely flowing into a personal account. Witnesses described signed notes by Whiting underage and by bank officials signing routine reports. Questions arose over irregular bank payments and the role of Primrose and Braun in handling notes. The judge ordered continued confinement as the trial proceeds and Morse expressed confidence that no criminal charges would stand against him or Curtis.

Seth Low Forecasts Taft and Hughes Victory
Seth Low speaking in St. Louis predicted Taft's edge in Indiana and Kentucky, with Indiana seen as safe for Taft and Kentucky as strong fighting ground. He noted Taft leading by about 106,000 in New York as he departed, and said Hughes faces GOP opposition due to his gambling crusade but should still win. He added New York State would not be clearly Republican or Democratic, hinging on independents potentially tilting toward Taft or Hughes.

Taft in Tennessee Urges South to Shape National Affairs
Taft argues the South must share national responsibility and shed Northern Democratic influence. He praises tariff protection for Southern industry, divides Southern Democrats into three groups, and urges alignment with his party. Crowds cheer as he tours Knoxville, Johnson City, and Bristol, flowers offered at every stop. In Tennessee, Tillman may win governor as a statewide prohibitionist, complicating Patterson’s re election bid amid Democratic factionalism.
