Delany, in the last campaign. Mr. Sheehan is anxious to get the place and has worked every possible wire to gain this end since the election. Mr. Murphy, it is said, has realized that there would, no doubt, be a pjablic clamor -against the selection Mr.

Sheehan, so- he has arranged to hold another candidate In the background. This candidate, according to information from Tammany Hall, is Justice- Gerard. Mr. Murphy, it is said, is-proceeding on the ground that his candidate will be acceptable to all the forces antagonistic to Tammany Hall, even including William R. Hearst.

Mr. Hearst was in favor of the selection of Justice Gerard for candidate for Governor at the Rochester convention. Among the three names he submitted at the convention as his choice for Gerard headed the list. The selection of the Justice for the important office of United States Senator would do much to bring the Hearst forces and Mr. Murphy together.

Justice Gerard, it is known, has many friends who are doing their utmost to convince Mr. Murphy that he would be the most logical candidate. F0SS KEEPS AUTO FOR LODGE Begins Active Fight Against The Senator tit Thursday. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Boston.

MANY THOUSANDS TO LOSE JOBS Taft. Says Umpire Builder, Is A "Good -Fellow," But Makes MistakesScores Extravagance. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. St. Paul.

Nov. 27. That the United States aDd the world, in fact are abqnt to harvest the fruits grown of exT travagance, J. J. Hill is absolutely convinced.

"It is too late to warn; the hour is now near," he says. "WTiy, when I told President Taft a. few days ago that there wouid be many thousands of men thrown Into idleness next year he was almost incredulous of my sincerity, but I am not making a guess; it will be a fact." Here Mr. Hill paused for a few reflections upon the Chief Executive, declaring that the President is a "good fellow," that he means well, but that he has made lots of mistakes. "The trouble with Mr.

Taft is." he continued, "that he lives in a political atmosphere. He can't get away from it. It pervades Washington, and the President's views of conditions are limited in a large measure by these who surround him." Business Men And Politics. "Why not get business men to accept Mr. Hill repeated the question.

"That would be altogether impossible. A business man could not remain in the position. His election could come about only through the efforts of those supporting him, which would mean a besieging horde of office-seekers." Mr. Hill declared that the American people were too complacent. They spend too freely and are greatly inclined to take a rosy view of things entirely unwarranted by.

circumstances. "Extravagance has been our great fault," he said. "We hay.e been wasting entirely too much in non-productive undertakings. As a rule, we have been given too much to adornments. We have become obsessed with 'city beautiful' in municipal affairs.

We have followed like policies in the State and national Governments. Money Squandered On Warships. "Battleships, not only in this country, but also abroad, are Illustrations of the extravagance in which the world has been plunged the last two decades. The money for the construction of these has been withdrawn from commercial circles and almost as good as squandered so far as there cu-i be any tangible returns observed. "We have gone to considerable expense to dig the Panama Canal.

I presume now we will have to fortify it. It's all very well to make appropriations for such purposesit is easy to contract debts but the real difficulty arises when we come to get the money with which to make the payments. GoTernmental Eitravagaace. "In four years, from 1892 to 1896, our Federal expenditures were $1,800,000,000. For a similar period, from 1904 to 1908, we spent about $3,600,000,000.

Yet, we pay our taxes an harp upon the1 high cost or living, ana even in aoing tms we linger upon the brilliant prospects which we think the future holds in store for us. "If a man buys a farm and cultivates it, he contributes to the material wealth of society. If he the land to lie idle, he has subtracted from the general wealth by withdrawing his money from commerce and investing in a non-profitable enterprise. Certain A Panic Impends. Disclaiming any intention of posing as a calamity prophet, Mr.

Hill insisted, however, that it was not a guess but an absolute certainty, as to what awaits the country tomorrow, or the next year, when business activities become dormant. He pointed out that at present there is very little projected, which means a suspension of activities. "Do you hear of any generally systematic plans for improvements during the next year?" he asked. "There are none, factories and such other enterprises which are productive in their nature and which contribute to wealth are not contemplated by those who have the money to invest. "This means that those who have nothing to sell but their time will be without employment.

'There will have to be a shutting down of the mines because iron and coal and other minerals that go in the production of commercial articles will not be in demand. The same might be said of lumber and other forms of activity. "As a result of all this there will be many thousands of people without employment. Cutting Down Expenses. "In preparing our Great Northern or ders for next year we find that we are going to need very few supplies.

This is because we are making no extensions. Last year we ordered 245.000 tons of rails and had no surplus. For. the next year we will need only about 70,000 tons. Last year we had to have 11,000 new freight cars.

This year we shall need but 3,000. Last year we were compelled to equip a large number of passenger coaches this year we shall need none. We ordered over 300 engines last year. Twentv new- ones will be an abundance for next season. "Other business interests? Well, I hap pen to know they are making no more pro vision for improvements or extensions than we are.

It isn't because they haven't the money, but because there are no in ducements, considering public sentiment and business- outlook, for them to in vest in. will happen, 1 say, therefore, is a matter of certainty. Enterprises In all lines will come to a standstill. There will be no progress. Many people will have to change their occupations and habits of living." JAMES SMITH FOR REVISION Former 5ew Jersey Senator Says It "Is Duty Of Democrats.

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Washington, Nov. 27. The- tariff con tinues to be the political question discussed by both parties. James Smith, of New Jersey, a former United States Senator and again a candidate, passed through Washington on his way South, expressed his opinion that revision of the tariff is the most solemn duty of the Dem ocratic party.

"The tariff should receive early atten tion," he- said earnestly. "The present law is generally considered as evidence of a party's breach of faith. A revision downward is expected, especially with reference to the necessities of life. To my mine tnat is tne most solemn duty or the Demo cratlc party at the moment. But Its duty is two-fold to the people and to the bust ress interests of tt country.

That both may well be served announcement should presently be made of the Congressional plans in this regard. Business halts while tariffs are being made. In the interest, then, of the common welfare, the Demo cratic program should Include a fixed purpose to proceed without delay to a down ward revision of the tariff where needed and a resolute and speedy accomplishment of that purpose." MURPHY OPPOSED TO SHEPARD Justice Gerard Said To Be His Choice For Senator. New York, Nov. Charles F.

Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, returned today from Hot Springs, he faced the question of Tammany't attitude toward the successor of Chauncey M. Depew as United States Senator. He has already eliminated himself as a possible candidate. bat it is known that he expects "to have something to say about the Senatorship. In the first place Mr.

Murphy is not in favor, of Edward M. Shepard, who has the 500 REPORTED SHOT AT PUEBLA Ambassador De La Barrx Denies The Story Of Executions Normal Conditions Along The Border. Chihuahua, Mexico, Nov. 27. In an engagement near this city today which lasted from 9 o'clock in the rooming until two in the afternoon, 600 Federal troops routed a force of 400 Maderoists, driving them repeatedly from strong positions and compelling them to take to the, mountains.

The revolutionists lost 15 killed and many wounded. There were no fatalities on tbe Federal side, but a number, including three officers, were wounded. General Navarro was in command of the Federal troops. He left Chihuahua at 5 o'clock this morning. Near Fresno.

12 miles out. one of thr squads of cavalry fell behind to guard the road. They were ambushed by the rebels, who opened fire from hills on both sides of the road. Capt. Florentine Gavica.

with 50 troopers, drove tbe enemy from their position. Captain Gavica waited for a portion of the Federals who had gone forward to reinforce him before pursuing the Insurrectionists. In the meanwhile the latter took a position on another hill, a short distance away, and prepared to resist an attack. Within half an hour General Navarre reached the scene with hit. infantry and opened flic.

Again the rebels retreated only to seek a new position, from which they were again dislodged. At last they fortified themselves behind a stone wall, where they made a determined stand. The firing was heavy, and here most of the loss of life occurred. After several hours of skirmishing the rebels broke for the mountains. They were pursued by the infantry for some three miles.

Behind the stone wall the bodies of 15 rebels anil lo dead horses were lound. The Federals abandoned the pursuit in order to make camp and care for their wounded. Artillery and cavalry will leave late tonight, it is said, making a detour to intercept toe revolutionists. Bloody Revenge By D'ai. San Angelo.

Texas. Nov. 27. That 500 insurgents were ordered shot -by the Government at Puebla, Mexico, instead of only 40 having been kiled there, as told In press dispatches, is the assertion made in letters received from Americans living near Puebla. 25 Killed In Fight, He Says.

Washington, Nov. 27. Ambassador De la Barra, of Mexico, today reeeived a dispatch from this government denying published reports of the alleged killing of T0O revolutionists at Puebla. A dispatch stated that an official investigation of the disturbance in Puebla showed that Government forces attacked a body of 23 revolutionists intrenched in a house at that place. Twenty-three'vere killed and 12 wounded in both parties.

The Mexican Ambassador received another dispatch declaring that order had been restored In all states and that condi tions now are normal everywhere. Normal Conditions Restored. Laredo, Texas, Nov. 27. Sunday was a day of quiet In Northern Mexico, according to official advices received by General Villier, commander of the frontier forces of the Mexican Army.

Detachment stationed at different points between Mata-moras and Ciudad Porfirio Diaz sent dispatches early tonight, aud all were of the same tenor that practically normal conditions prevailed. Similar statements were received from the detail of troops stationed along the border on the American side of the river. General fear of a formidable formation in the southern republic seems to be dissipated. Captain Hagadorn, of the United States Army, commander of Fort Mcintosh, reported everything quiet at Minora, Texas. He confirmed the Associated Pfs dispatch that evidences had been found at that town of the presence of armed revolutionists, but explained that they had disappeared, either having made their way ipto Mexico or bidden themselves in the brush.

If present plans are carried out. Company A of the Twenty-third Infantry, stationed at Minera, will be brought to Fort Mcintosh on Friday. Searching For Madero. Douglas, Nov. 27.

27. Conrad L. Byrne, the well-known American railroad contractor, returned from Mexico City after a personal interview with General Diaz, in which the President of the sister republic took occasion to express his friendship for Americans and bitter denunciation against any so-called anti-American feeling by Mexicans. Mr. Byrne wa3 given audience to df-cuss matters pertaining to a $2,000,000 project, and itwas in the course of the conversation that President Diaz brought up the subject.

He referred only once to the revolutionary movement, merely dismissing this feature with a remark that fools will follow any man with a gun and that Mexico had no fear of a revolution. Speaking of the anti-American reports, the General said that every true Mexican who had the interest of his native land at heart must be friendly to America as a nation, for to the Americans Mexico owed much for the development of her vast resources and the Americans had done nothing against Mexico, as Mexicans, but on the contrary came Into that country and invested capital ad employed thousands of laborers. "In America my countrymen are well treated," said the General, "and many of go there who do not do well in their own country. Why shoultl not we treat well Americans who come to our country?" 1 President DL 6aid he would protect the Americans and American interests at any-cost and that for every American life sacrificed to frenzied Mexican outlaws Mexico would In return pay three lives. Mr.

Byrne, who had met General Diaz "several times before, said he was deeply Impressed by the aged ruler's manner and he meant every word he uttered. He appeared considerably more distressed over the reported attacks upon Americans than he is concerned over the revolution. President Diaz is very hard of hearing and is almost deaf. In fact, Mr. Byrne said he is wearing a stethoscope, without which he can hardly hear anything.

New York, Nov. 27. There is no longer any doubt that Governor-elect Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, is to take a part in the contest in that State over the United States Senatorship. He spent patt or most of Friday in visits to Robert the leader of the Hudson county Democracy, and to legislators-elect from Hudson and Bergen counties, and it was learned later that he had falked much at these conferences about the United States Sena torial succession. This was made apparent by an answer to a questipm put to Jonn-son, of Bergen county, yesterday "Did Governor-elect Wilson urge the election of James E.

Martine?" The Senator asked. Wilson Democratic leader, "Well, he seemed to be inclined that way," was the response. "He thinks i cry favorably of Mr. Martine. I shall stick to my decision to recognize Governor Wilson as the leader and to have due regard for his opinions." In substantiation 'of the claim of Mr.

Martine's friends that the Governor-elect is disposed to Mr. Martine's election this letter was made public yesterday: ''My Dear Mr. Martine It was a very great victory, and you were one of the most valiant fighters in it. Words of'ap-preciation do not pay the debt, but it is delightful to speak them where they are so well appreciated and deserved. We shall now lift this old party to new success.

1 "With warmest regards and appreciation, faithfully yours, "Woodrow Wilson. "November 14." At the same- time it is generally said that Governor-elect Wilson has not com mitted himself to Mr Martine's candidacy and that he is taking the sense of the legislators on the question of the succession before reaching a final oncl is'on as to the part he will take in the scramble. In an interview Robert Davis set, at iest all donbts as to his readiness to assist cx-Scnator James Smith, to setae the prize. Fuss Kicked ITii'By Republicans. "I had a pleasant chat with the Governor-elect," he said, "and we parted good friends.

I have said to no one that i am for Martiue against him, fr Smitn or against him. I say, 'let the legislators get together, at the proper time and decide on the The Hud-son rembers will loyally support the choice of the majority of the legislators. The fuss over the Senatorship is. being kicked up by tbe Republicans. The Democrats will bo able to settle the thing without trouble." That is exactly what other supporters of Senator Smith are saying.

The Hudson men have been excited by a newspaper report that State Chairman Nugent had said that Davis would deliver the hole of the delegation from that nonary to Smith. The effect of the story iias been bad enough to prompt Mr. Nugent to deny, as he did yesterday, rh-it ho had ever saii anything of the kind. Smitn May Command Caucus. There is no doubtthat Smith can csim-mand a majority in the caucus.

TO TKY GIRL OF 19 FOR MURDER Prosecution Contends Dying Man Said She Shot Him. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun. Boston, Nov.

27. Hattie Le Blanc, a pretty 19-year-old girl of West Arichat, Cape Breton, Canada, will be placed on trial in the Cambridge Superior Court tomorrow morning on a charge of having murdered her second cousin's husband, Clarence F. Glover, a Waltham Laundry-rrian in his laundry in that citv on November 20, 1900. The girl Is a French Canadian, and at the time of the murder was unable to speak English. While in jail awaiting trial she has studied English, and will now be able to understand most of the testimony.

The claim of the prosecution is that Glover, in whose house the girl lived, had been intimate with her and that because he had been, for some time, showing more affection for his wife than for her she shot him. 'The defense will contend that Glover was shot by someone else and will try to prove that another member of bis family was in the laundry with him when he received the bullet wound which ended in his death. Mrs. Glover will testify that she had been suspicious of the girl, and that one night in March, 1909, sue caught her husband and the girl together in one of the rooms of the (ilover home. That night the girl was ordered from the house by Mrs.

Glover, and Hattie Le Blanc remained away seven days. The day of the murder Mr. and. Mrs. Glover and the girl drove to a football game in the Glover automobile.

At 9.30 that night Glover was found on the stops of a private hospital, where he had crawled from his laundry. To T. E. Connors, who found him, he said 'T have been shot by a woman." He at first refused to say who she was, but before he was carried, into the hospital. Connors says, he murmured "Hattie Le Blanc." In the hospital, just before he died.

Glover was asked if he wished to see his wife, and his answer was: "Yes, hut will she shoot me?" The revolver with which Glover was killed was his. It was found a few yards from the hospital. Search was Immedi ately instituted for Hattie Le Blanc and two days later she was found hiding under a bed in the residence where -Mrs. Glover had been living. "The widow at the time of the discovery was atte 'ing the funeral services at the grave.

Since the murder there have been various legal complications over the estate left by Mr. Glover. FIANCE STOLEN BY FRIENDS Stripped, Marched Through Streets, Jailed, Married In. Hour. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.
