Mr. Brow who him been at bU country horns ai Uiii tarings, before leaving fcr New Xork, declared positively that the story of bis henaturial candidacy was false and that he bud no idea either of realgnlug the presidency of the New York, Central linos or of seeking a seat in upper house at Washington. in a telegram to a friend in Chicago Mr. Brown said: "When I not ready to retire from my present position it will be to secure freedom from hard work and respoud-blllty, not to undertake other work." WAGE AGREEMENT.

I Decrease in Shipbuilding in the united States During Fiscal Year COAL CARGOES SCARCE Woman Mariner Baffles Police Death of Mrs. Hawgood Sailors' Encampment. Shipbuilding. During the fiscal year ended June 30 527 vessels of 302,391 gross tons were built in the Cnited States and officially numbered by i tne bureau of navigation, compared with L5Q2 vessels of 347,025 gross tons for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1910. The decrease is dne to a falling off of tons i in shipbuilding on the Great Lakes.

The largest vesel built ou the lakes- was the bulk freighter William Palmer, of 7,602 gross tons. On the seaboard the Ilonolulan.of gross tons, was the largest steamer built under the coastwise laws for Tehuantepec railroad trade. No vessels were built exclusively for foreign trade, and no square rigged vessels. The year's construction comprised 1,123 steam and motor vessels of 246.MO tons, eighty-five sail vessels of 11,398 tons, eighty-five sail vessels of 11,308 tons, and 319 un rigged barges and canal boats of 44,403 tons. Steamer Released.

The steamer Ball Bros, was released from Grand Point. St. Clair river, yesterday by the steamer James E. Davidson and the tug Harding. A lighter was sent from Detroit late, last night but did not get to the vessel before she was released.

The Ball Bros, does not appeear to have suffered from her experience. Freight Situation. Wild coal cargoes for large boats were scarce yesterday and some vesselmen have complained of not being able to place boats for immediate loading. Borne docks at the bead of the lakes would rather see receipts slow down for a few weeks, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. It is an annual affair for coal shippers to try to move all the coal they can during the midsummer month while receiving docks at the head of the lakes do not care to take more than certain amounts until grain begins to move.

Big coal shipments from the docks do not start until grain begins to arrive at the lake ports and railroads have cars going back into the interior. The shippers on the other hand send as much coal up during the months of June and July as they possibly can get the docks to accept. By moving the bulk of the lake coal during these months when the local trade is ready for iU fall deliveries the shippers then are in position to give them their attention. Some shippers who have large capacity at the upper lake ports intend to transport as much coal during this month as possible with a view to getting cleaned up before fall. Those shippers who have contract arrangements and smaller docks to cater to are being held down by the receiving operators and are the hardest hit while some shippers who have their own docks are likely to get orders from above to cut down shipments before the month is ended.

Ore shippers are waiting for furnace interests! to start buying. No Inquiries for ore have been reported and shippers do not look for much for the next two or three weeks, i A continued improvement In. iron and steel' business it Ib believed will bring out some business within the next four weeks. The feeling that there will be some ore deals made in the next thirty or forty days seems to be stronger than ever. TJDtll sales are made ore cargoes will not be given to many outside boats.

Steamer Loads Too Deep. The steamer Western Star, after clearing for Milwaukee with coRl from the Hanna docks at Sandusky yesterday, found that she was drawing 18 feet and 7 inches of water and would be unable to get through the locks at Soo, where the depth is only 18 feet aud 1 inch. She accordingly put back to port. She will be lightered. Sailors' Encampment.

Notice has been posted that the east half of the channel at Sailors' encampment is open for navagation and the west channel closed to allow dredging operations. Death of Mrs. Hawgood. Mrs. Eliza B.

Hawgood, widow of the late Capt. H. A. Hawgood, and the only woman president of a steamship company, died Wednesday following an operation. Mrs.

Hawgood was prominent in social as well as business circles. After the death of her husband, four years ago, she took up the burden of his heavy business cares as president of the Hawgood Steamship company, which position she held until her recent attack of illness. The company la one of the large independent vessel lines on the lakes. Woman Mariner Baffles Police. City Attorney Hoan at Milwaukee has called a holt on what he believes to be too great a police activity against Mrs.

Eliza-zeth Eaglesfleld, the plucky Benton Harbor woman who sells fresh fruit nd vegetables from her quaint boat, the Golden Girl, along the wharves of Milwaukee's harbor. Last summer Judge Queries of the United States district court decided that Mrs. Eiglesfield complied amply with the laws of the United States, Wisconsin and Milwaukee in providing herself with a coasting trade licence. Judge Quarles dismissed the charge, appealed to his court from the Milwaukee district court, alleging that the woman retailed goods without a retail merchant's license. Saturday and Monday Mrs.

Eaglesfield disposed of a cargo of raspberries, cherries and gooseberries from her boat. The patrolman traveling the beat attempted to arrest Mrs. Eaglesfield, but she forbade him to step on her boat. The police officer reported the defiance of the woman mariner to his chief and was referred to the city attorney. Mr.

Hoan declined to lsue a warrant, saving he had no desire to act In defiance of a mandate by Judge Quarles. The patrolman then attempted to arrest Mrs Eaglesfield for obstructing a fire fcydrant plug at the Mason street landing In his effort he also was unsuccessful. Mrs Eaglesfield is an interesting woman. With her son she built a boat that cost $10 000, and is as stanch and safe a water-craft as a large freighter. It Has ridden Lake Michigan in weather fair and fouL yet never a mishap has befallen the vessel.

Ten thousand cases of fruit can be taken at one load. She is the master of the vessel, regularly licensed by the United States steamboat inspectors. VESSEL MOVEMENTS PORT OP BUFFALO. ARRIVED: Str Rochester, Murray, Dnluth; 61,000 wheat, and mdse. Str Wllkeebarre, McDonald.

A Men Were Raising Crane Derrick at New Canisras Co'lege Site, Main and Jefferson Streets One man was seriously Injured and three others were painfully hurt in aa accident at the new Canlsius College site. Main and Jefferson streets, at 11.20 o'clock this morning. The men were taken to the Sisters' They are as follows: Christian Thomas, 28 years old, of 1643 Jefferson street; skull fractured, one of his legs and an arm broken; little hope for recovery. John Carlson, a carpenter, 57 years old, of 364 Myrtle avenue; fracture of right shoulder, laceration of the scalp and. bad bruises about the body.

George Bacon, a carpenter, 43 years old, of 4(31 Seneca street; slight laceration of the scalp, bruises about the body. George Reiman, a carpenter, 37 years old, of 18 Portland street, laceration of the scalp, right arm fractured, abrasion of the right ear and bad bruises about the face. A number of men were at work raising a crane derrick. The gin pole was in place and the men began to raise the mast of the derrick. One of the guy lines securing the mast gave way and the mast toppled to the ground.

Thomas and Carlson were sitting on the gin pole, guiding the ropes, when the mast gave way. They were struck by the mast. Both were thrown to the ground. Thomas landed on his head and Carlson landed on his right side. Bacon and Reiman were steadying the ropes when the guy line gave way.

They were directly beneath the mast. When it fell they started to run. They had gone but a few feet when the end struck them, knocking them to the ground. The rest of the gang escaped safely. Reiman and Bacon were able to regain their feet, but the other two men were unconscious.

A physician was called. He ordered that the men be taken to a hospital. An ambulance from the Sisters' Hospital was summoned and the Injured men were taken to that institution. Carlson was immediately revived, but the physicians have been unable to revive Thomas. The physicians believe that Thomas is also suffering from internal injuries.

The work at the new building is being done by the Eastern Concrete Steel Company. CAUGHT REDHANDED. At 2.30 o'clock this afternoon Detective-Sergeants Heam and Zimmermann arrested James Sheehan, 50 years old, on a charge of burglary, third degree, and larceny, third degree. The detectives spotted Sheehan as he was leaving' a vacant house at Franklin and Swan streets. Sheehan had a bundle of copper in his possession valued at $50.

At headquarters sneehan admitted having entered the building on several previous occasions and having taken lead pipe and copper lining from the water system. An investigation revealed the fact that the building, which was once used as an apartment house, had been stripped of almost all its plumbing furnishings. Sheehan will be arraigned in city court. Local Elks Eesent Newspaper Implication in Favor of Col. Sullivan.

One of the afternoon papers publishes a photograph of Col. J. Sullivan of New Orleans as "Next Exalted Ruler of Order of Elks," overlooking the fact that a prominent Buffalonian, Willard H. Ticknor, is the most prominent candidate for that high office and that Mr. Ticknor is the subject of a leading article in the organ of the order this week, thus making him "the leading candidate." The publication of this picture has caused a great deal of unfavorable comment among prominent local Elks.

"It is too bad that one of our own newspapers should take up the cudgels in behalf of a candidate from another, city when we have a candidate of our own," said a prominent official of the local lodge of Elks in speaking of this incident. "Just think of the amount of capital that the friends of Col. Sullivan can make of this incident when we get to the national convention next week." FOUR RAILROAD MEN ONLY ONES INJURED. Watertown N.

BILL HAS PASSED COMMITTEE STAGE Lords Reluctant to Yield Control of the Purse Strings of the Empire.

London, July 7. The committee stage of the parliament bill, otherwise known as the veto bill, for the curtailment; of the powers of the lords, was concluded in the house of lords last night. Although numerous amendments and new clauses seeking to modify this provision were proposed by independent members, these were all withdrawn or. rejected. The debate throughout displayed great restiveness on the part of i the peers agaiuat their leaders and their significant differences of opinion.

The house of lords shows; the greatest reluctance to yield its control of money bills. As the bill leaves the lords it commits to a joint committee of- six members of the two houses the power of deciding whether or not any bill is a monev bit. a. power which the govern' ment bill reposes in the speaker of the house of commons alone. I Further, the same committee will have the virtual power of referring any important bill to a referendum of the people.

The report stage has been fixed by the lords for July 13th, and when the bill goes back to the house of commons it is certain that these new clauses and amendments will be rejected en bloc. What course the house of lords will then adopt is uncertain. NEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS ELECT NEW; OFFICERS. Rochester, Jnly 7.

The' Troy common council last night passfed a resolution calling upon the congressional committee now investigating the United States Steel Corporation to investigate the sale of the Breaker Island plant opposite this city; its absorption by the steel trust and the closing of the works. Several thousand men were thrown out of employment and a loss. of; a million dollars annually to the merchants of this city resulted. The resolution charges that the trust refused to sell the property or to use it, and that the dismantling of the plant is in restriction of trade. The plant was conducted by the Troy Steel and Iron Works Company, with a capital of $2,500,000.

It; was bought several years ago! by the trust, which immediately closed the works. TELEGRAPH TICKS. Madison, July 7. Governor Mc-Govem has signed a bill authorizing the state to engage in the annuity and iife insurance business after next year. Pittsburg, July 7.

Date" For Special Election is to be Early in August, But They'll Get Out. Legislators home from Albany for the usual week-end stay say that they have not seen the Ramsperger amendment to the county division bill, but that it will, be printed and distributed in Albany and here before Tuesday.

This is the amendment which provides for a county-wide referendum. It gives all the voters of the county a right to vote on the proposition as to whether or not the city of Buffalo shall become a county by itself. A feature of the referendum clause which was generally discussed among the supervisors this forenoon, and one upon which the lawyer members of the board could not agree as to its validity, is the one which provides that a majority of the duly registered voters 'must favor division of the county before the bill becomes operative. Some 'declared that such a referendum as that could be inserted for one purpose only, namely to deceive the people. It may be put into the bill in such a way as to leave the bill open to attack because of this very referendum clause, in which event the courts might decide that the referendum was bad and leave the remainder of the bill operative, thus accomplishing division of the county without referendum.

"I don't know, of course, what the exact language of the referendum may be," said one lawyer member of the board, "aind for that reason don't wish to be quoted, but as I am advised this referendum business may be a very cleverly, prepared plan to secure county division without referendum by having the courts declare the referendum clause invalid, leaving the remainder of the bill operative." "Whether the referendum clause is invalid or not I am not prepared to said Chairman Wende of the supervisors, "but all we folki in the country ask" is for a chance to vote on this question. They fix the date for the special election as the second Tuesday in August and the prediction is freely made that such date was determined on because the farmers would be too busy then to get out and vote. The farmers will get out and don't you forget that I am telling you so, and the vote in the towns will be practically a unit against division." Convention Bureau Suggests That One Be Built oil Broadway Site. The subject of Buffalo's needs as regards a convention hall and exposition building waa discussed at a meeting of the convention bureau of the Chamber of Commerce Manufacturers' Club this afternoon. The bureau arrived at the conclusion that if the amount of the proposed outlay, HO." 000, is spent in remodeling and Improving the old arsenal In Broad way the revolt ob- talned will not meet the needit aud requirements of the city as regards an exposition building and convention hall, also that the expenditure at this time will foreclose for many years to come all chance of meeting all convention needs and putting up a building that would answer all The members of the bureau hold that with such a condition ezistiuK Buffalo will be handicapped in the matter of getting conventions and expositions.

The members of the convention bureau believe that a suitable building can be obtained and that, the site for it te the present Broadway armory site. The suggestion is made by the bureau that the city take the money it is proposed to spend on contemplated repairs and Improvements to the present structure la Broadway and combine It with the proceeds of the sale of Convention Hall la Virginia street, adding as much more may be needed, and erect suitable building on the Broadway site. The money needed over and above what the sale of the Tlrginla street building and site would bring could be raised by bond issue. The convention bureau decided to present this suggestion to the members of the board of aldermen, who at present have the matter under consideration. nil Gi BE CLEVER TRICK Str Victory, Lowes, Superior; 7,001) coal.
