FELL FROM Exposure of An Effort fey the Republican Candidate to Obtain Support on Hard Labor Performed by Other MenThe Referendum Clause and the Hamburg Turnpike in Hard Facts. So far in this campaign the effort' of the Republican managers has been; to bolster up by tricks or false stateJ ments the Republican officeholders who! have been again nominated.

"Election' Commissioner George D. Emerson candidate Charles L. Feldman have' been twisting and turning about on the referendum proposition with a vlewf to deceiving the voters into the be-1 lief that they are trying to do something with that matter, but the motive! for the whole case is plain. Mr. Feld-i man and his newspaper supporters' have also claimed credit for the Ham-i burg Turnpike case: for the insertion of the referendum clause in the union-! station bill and many other which claims are very similar.

to Feldman's promises whon he and Knight were candidates in the last; mayoralty election. Marcus M. Drake and Frank C.j Ferguson at the big Chamber of Commerce meeting, inserted the referen-' dum clause In the union-station biil.j after Mr. Feldman had drafted the. "sneak bill" for Mayor Knight and that! recommendation was carried out.j Neither the Express nor the other advocates of Mr.

Feldman have withdrawn that statement, even though1 the proof was shown to them. For the guidance of the voters in this campaign a series of articles which may properly be placed under the caption. "What Mr. Feldman has not done," will be of value. CHAPTER I.

THE HAMBURG TURNPIKE CASE. In his. public speech of a few even-- ago Mr. Feldman said: "When I took office four years ago found a situation utterly the rights of the city Important highway, and It soon became manifest to me that if the city Buffulo was to derive any of the benefits that should accrue to it by renson of this vast development, it up tu us to settle the question involved in the Hamburg Turnpike in order that we' might have a highway without limitation, without, condition, without restriction, without question its to ownership, connecting that section of lit city with West Seneca in order that those people living out there might have access to our community and thuij vr might enjoy mutual benefits. And what was the condition?" During the term of Conrad Diehl as Mayor he appointed a board known as the Harbor Commission.

That com mission was composed of George Clin ton, chairman; J. N. Adam, Rowland' B. Mahany, R. K.

Smither, Dougall. William Summers C. Mc-and John II Ludwig. In the spring of 1S90 the Commissioners recommended to the Commop Council that an attorney be appointed to assist the commission in reclaiming and saving certain property and interests belonging to the City. This recommendation resulted in the appointment of.

William S. Rann as attorney for tnn, Harhor Commission on the recommen dation of William H. Cuddeback, then, Corporation Counsel.

LONDON, Oct. 26. A DESPATCH THE EXCHANGE TELEGRAPH COMPANY FROM ST. PETERSBURG SAYS EMPEROR NICHOLAS HAS DECIDED TO GRANT A CONSTITUTION SIMILAR TO THAT OF GERMANY. By Associated Press Cable.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 26 Russia Is practically isolated today from the rest of the continent of Europe, as the international train service on- all the lines has virtually ceased; "tie-up In the interior is mors complete than yesterday. The only trains running are operated by the railroad battalions. The strike contagion is spreading.

Ali Classes of workmen are organizing sympathetic strikes and industrial life In the country is coming to a standstill. The situation cannot long- continue. Either the workmen will soon be starved Into submission or pillage with military interference and bloodshed on a large scale are bound to follow. At Moscow 60 cabmen have already fought the strikers, whom they charge with taking the bread out of their mouths. In many cities, especially at Moscow, the question of food is becoming extremely serious.

Collisions between troops and strikers are repotted to have occurred at several places. At Ekaterlnoslav a regular pitched battle between the soldiers and strikers was fought and the city was left in darkness. The whole country is becoming alarmed and in St. Petersburg an Incipient panic prevails. The Emperor and the court at'Peter-hof are supplied with fod by a warship from St.

Petersburg. All the families who can afford it have hastened to lay In supplies and stand a siege. The suffering falls heaviest on the poor, who live from hand to mouth. The meat dealers have been ordered by the revolutionists not to deliver meat to the troops under pain of death, and consequently the soldiers are living on canned goods. All the St.

Petersburg schools were sed today and the children were sent home with instructions not to return until their parents think it safe to do so. The great strike promises to delay and possibly interrupt the negotiations for the new Russian loan.

Tifft, It will be remembered, made her debut in vaudeville at Shea's Theater about three years ago. Louis W. Gay in conversation with a friend not long ago, said that his wife had left him on Thanksgiving Day, 1904, and that he had not seen her from that day. He had written to' her frequently but had received no replies to his letters. She had sent detectives here to shadow him but he explained that it was entirely unnecessary for her to dp "that.

"If she has grown tired of me," he said sadly, "and wants a divorce she can have it without resorting to tiny such methods as that although there is nothing in my life of which I am ashamed and I have never violated my. marriage vows. I never thought my own cousin would break up my home and separate me from my wife and child. There never was any trouble between us and I never mistrusted that-anything was wrong until I discovered that she left me and started for California last winter. I love her today just as much as I ever did and.

noone could ever make me believe but that she is a good and honorable woman." ODDTON ADAM- NOW 10 TO 5 The betting odds tooks a big. tumble today.

ESCAPED Even Newspaper Passed Him by, Once or Twice He a Very Close Call. en but Had BY BOTTS. "I have fooled the best of them today. One of the most trying of my experiences up to date was that of noon today, when I went Into the Iroquois Hotel and spent the time from 11 o'clock to 11:40 without being captured. During the time I was In the hotel I walked freely about the lobby, conversing at will with a number of persons I encountered there.

"There were persons there looking for me and many of them. I could frequently overhear conversations which I knew concerned me and my capture and the $50 that' will go with me. In some of these cases I walked into the groups and talked wjth them and still they could not detect me, and the funny part of it was that they were there intent upon taking me. "One thing I noticed, and much to my discomfiture, was that the corps of bell had suspicious-looking bundles under their coats, which I finally learned were copies of the Evening TIMES. They were looking for me with vigor and I expected that at any moment one of the "brigade" would lav a hand on my shoulder and tell me that I was the missing Mr.

Botts of the Buffalo TIMES. "I feel exceedingly proud of the fact that I walked into a group of newspaper men including three well-known reporters, Mr. Scanlon, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Rellly, who were talking politics In the lobby of the hotel and got away without -being discovered.

I heard one of them remark that I looked like Mr. Botts. I confess that it made me feel a bit shaky until I got away from them. "Leaving the newspaper men I went over to the flower stand and purchased a postage stamp from Miss Anna, the girl In charge. She looked me over carefully and here, too, I began to fear that' I was discovered, but my suspicions were groundless.

She did not recognize me. "While I was sitting chair near the cigar stand I saw Miss Anna still looking at me. There was a young man standing at the news-stand and she brought forth a copy of THE TIMES and together they looked at my picture and then looked at me. But neither laid hands upon me." BV BOTTS. That the Missing ilr1.

Botts. for whose apprehension a reward of $50 will be paid by THE TIMES, is on the streets at all hours of the day is shown by the photographs that are taken of him. This morning I made a call at the City Hall tq see the Mayor. It was 10 o'clock as I walked up the portal of that building when I met Mr. Mullen, the Democratic politician of the Sixth Ward.

He was accompanied by another gentleman whom I didn't know. They came to a stop on the upper step and as they happened to be in my way I. too, stopped. I was about to speak to Mr. Mulien and waited for him to get through talking with another gentleman, when I was snapped by THE TIMES photographer.

I heard Mr. Mullen ask the photographer If the picture was for the dollar column which THE TIMES is running daily at the head of the Want Ads. I regret that Mr. Mullen, an astute politician, who cannot be fooled by anyone, should have been foiled by the Missing Mr. Eotts.
