Frothingham Also Convinced He Will Hopeful.

Persistent Rumors Afloat That Certain Ward Leaders Are Engaged In Secret Planning to Knife the Party Candidate for Mayor. John F. Fitzgerald said last night: "I am confident that I will be elected mayor plurality of 17.000 votes over my nearest republican opponent. will poll 20,000 of the votes given me in the primaries, and I believe that I will poll at least two-thirds of the votes cast for Edward J. Donovan in the primaries.

That makes 17,000 more to add to the 26,000. 1 am confident that I will poll at least 4000 republican votes. This means a total of 47,500 votes. information that I have received I believe this to be a fair estimate, and no shrewd political leader, republican or democrat, can arguo against It. The polling of 47,000 votes for the democratic candidate for mayor means that I will be elected by about 17,000 votes.

am well pleased with the manner in which the preliminaries of the mayoralty campaign are being handled. The party is united and the meetings of the ward workers which I have addressed under the escort of Pres Fitzgerald of the city committee prove this to be true. "Next week we shall begin an active, aggressive campaign." Mark Cross DOWN TOWN 253 Broadway Opp. City Hall Louis A. Frothingham.

Louis A. Frothingham said last night: "This week has strongly convinced me that the people of Boston are thoroughly aroused and that they are heartily dissatisfied with the conduct of the affairs. They are listening and reading and thinking. "I am perfectly satisfied with the campaign outlook and believe that the cause I have the honor to represent will be successful on Dec 12 and that we will save the city, for the paramount 3 sue here is the salvation of a city we love and are proud of. The atmosphere ought to be cleared and this campaign of men who are forgetting party lines Is going to do James A.

Watson. James A. Watson said: "Every day brings me new encouragement in the fight I am leading for municipal ownership. I feel it in my bones that I am going to win. "Next week I shall have the assistance of that peerless democrat, George Fred Williams, who will speak for our noble principles.

I have also received a letter from New York informing me that William Hearst, who was elected mayor of New York, and Bird 8. Color will speak at Faneuil hall in behalf of our cause.

Dewey. Judge Dewey said: "As I read the signs of the times, with my knowledge of past events, with my knowledge of my own intentions as to the conduct of the campaign, with my surmises as to the plans of my principal opponent, the democrat, and also with my suspicions as to the plans of the friends of my lesser opponent, a republican, I predict that before the end of the coming week it will be quite gene- ally admitted and understood in Boston that the name of the man most available for the mayoralty this is Dewey; that this is not the year for Mr Fitzgerald and that Mr Frothingham woufd better have held on to his ership of the house. "For further details I would refer to the newspapers of next Monday and supporting the nominee for mayor, and everything pointed to a big democratic plurality for John F.

Fitzgerald. Rumors of Knifing. Rumor still associates the names of several well-known democrats with the report that there is an understanding between certain democrats, dissatisfied with the result of the primaries, 10 knife the democratic candidate for mayor at the polls. It Is current political gossip that at least a half dozen ward leaders are at work secretly planning In the interest of the republican candidate, Mr Froth- Charlestown democrat is said to have had a long conference with representatives of Mr rothing- harn and report has it that by the middle of the week he and several others are to issue a statement against John F. Fitzgerald.

A prominent South Boston democrat told a Globe man last evening that there was no doubt about such a movement being under way. At the Frothingham hcadquarteis all rumors of alleged deals and combinations with dissatisfied elements in the democratic party are denied, but In the corridors of the Kimball building, v'here the Frothingham headquarters are, one hears of this democrat and that democrat who are sure to be among the Frothingham "come within a few days. The only prominent democratic leader that the Fitzgerald managers feel there is no hope of getting is Congressman McNary. Mr McNary is in Washington, to be present at the opening of congress Monday, but he is expected back the middle of the week. Just before he left a Globes rajjorter asked Mr McNary what he was going to do in the mayoralty campaign He was among the bitterest of Mr itz r'lllc a a id that he had nothin to say at present, but that if he foun it necessary to state his posiion on the mayoralty he would do so, and that he would make it so clear that there could possibly be no misunderstanding all the politicians agree that if MeNnrv does say anything about the mayoralty contest it will dq against the mayoralty nominee.

who wanted .0 vote against the old machine leaders, and who will vote at the polls against Fitzgerald to make even more efTcctlve their protest against machine rule and machine methods, "Such a bitter controversy at. the primaries leaves a soreness which is hard to heal. The strife in the line fight six years ago was not nearly so severe, so erimonlous or savage as the recent contest. And yet Gen Collins at the election met with unwarranted defeat. Surely it will prove much easier to defeat Fitzgerald with hfs record than it wns to defeat Gen Collins with his long record of honorable service.

"Dewey will poll mo Ye democratic than republican votes. With this handicap and with the handicap of his record arid the record of the local bosses who support him. he seems at the present hour doomed to defeat. wise or prudent democrat will prefer six years under an administration solely for the close adherents of Fitzgerald, rather than two years of Frotnirigham for the benefit of the whole p. 8.

I may say that the executive committee was unanimous in the opinion that no more important vote is com- I ing before the city of Boston in this election than the vote for both Kennys for one, but for both." It was also decided at meeting of the association to hold the one rally for the campaign in Faneuil hall Friday noon, at 12 For this several good speakers have been engaged and others who have been asked it is expected will be present. Some of those whose acceptances have already come In are Philip J. Doherty, Michael Murray, Charles L. Burrlll. About Miss The statement given out by the P.

S. A. last night also contains the following bit of gossip about Miss Mary Boyle O'Reilly: is every reason to believe that the candidates of the Public School association will receive this year a heavier vote in the Charlestown district than ever before. Many of the signers of its nomination papers were obtained from that section of the city, not a few of whom were friends of Miss Mary Boyle O'Reilly, who at that time it was supposed would receive the democratic nomination as well, it seems, was not only promised the democratic nomination, jut has in her possession a written request from a prominent democratic politician tendering it to her, and it was only after much persuasion and consultation with her uncle, John R. Murphy.

that she was prevailed upon to allow her name to go to the democratic convention, turning down of Miss Reilly by the democrats has to an extent embittered his Charlestown friends, and they are said to be united in wonting for the candidates of the Public School association, the organization which so loyally stood by Miss and even up to the last moment endeavored to prevail upon her to enter the contest with its own nomination alone, if need I BATTLE TO DEATH, Man Killed a Giant Bull at Sidney, Me. Sates His Own Life by the Animal's Throat. AUGUSTA, Me, Dec has been received here of a battle to the death between James B. Clark of Sidney and a giant bull, a few days ago. Clark was at work on a farm owned by his brother, A.

T. Clark, and was leading a big durhani bull, under control with an iron pole and ring, to a nearby spring, to water. On his return from the spring, Mr Clark lost his hold on the pole, and the great beast wrenched free and bore gown upon his Intended victim, with the Intention of goring him to death. Mr Clark was knocked to the ground by the onslaught and before he could recover the great beast was upon With rare presence of mind the prostrate man grasped the iron ring, whicW still hung from the nose, with one hand, and then began the terrible figln nearly an hour Mr Clark struggled with the animal.

After one of these struggles, Mr Clark managed to draw his large jack-knife from his Kip pocket, and with this, still lying at full length upon the ground, he fought the bull. After a half hacking away at the throat, he managed to cut a deep gash, but this only served to intensify the beast's rage and strength. Finally however, partly from exhaustion, and partly from loss of blood, the staggered away from his partly- unconselous victim and, falling into the road slowly bled to death. Mr Clark crawled to his term, some distance away, and then collapsed. Medical aid was summoned and an examination of Mr Clark rvealed fearful injuries.

His body was a mass of bruises and cuts, and he also suffered from internal injuries of a grave nature. He sustained three tyoken ribs, fractured bones in the right knee, and a fractured collarbone. BURNS FIRST, ROY SECOND. Climax and Gleason Also Do Well at Lowell Shoot. LOWELL.

In a statement issued last night manager Gilpatric of the Frothingham campaign said: honestly believe that the election of Mr Frothingham is already practically assured, although there is much hard, earnest work yet to be done.

We have seen enough throughout the city to show that the movement is indorsed by the voters generally. "Mr Frothingham has simply done what he said he would has appealed to the reason and judgment of the voters. It is idle to contend that the people of our city favor bosses and machine politics. are tired of the squabbling of petty open grumbling over division of spoils, the bold extravagance, waste and leakage that have been going on. These things are part of and go with partisan municipal government, and the democratic nominee has promised to continue machine domination.

"The air is filled with his promises to districts and individuals. This what the people of Boston want a mayor who will administer in their interest the affairs of the big corporation in which they are the stockholders; they want a good, clean, fearless fellow, Mr Frothingham has impressed them and hia modesty and con servatlsm have shown in excellent contrast to the self-assertiveness of his opponent, who has spoken so feelingly of his at the "The opposition is a little nervous and the cry has been raised by them that combinations and deals have been made by Mr FroUjlngham.

"The thinking people of ward 17 ap- jeal to the democrats and the vast majority of intelligent voters, Irrespective of party, throughout the entire city to them cast off the yoke of Curley by voting for me.

In the ward room of ward 17, James H.

Watson, the for mayor who bases his claim to the support of the voters on his platform of municipal ownership, addressed an interested audience in his own behalf. His speech was frequently interrupted by applause and made considerable impression. Mr Watson promised to perform what he regarded as a duty, if bring about the establishment ot a municipal gas and lighting plant; he claimed that he has been working for this ever since 1899, when he ottered an order for such a plant in the common council; he pointed out the workings or municipal ownership in New Zealand and argued that any fair-minded and intelligent citizen would own that serene contentment exists in New Zealand, inasmuch as ho could "challenge any man hare to show ni6 one sing.8 vidual in this country today who has become a citizen of the United States, who has emigrated from Australia to this country."

Philip J.

Doherty, secretary of the committee, gave out the following statement last night: "All the present indications are that Frothingham will be elected. There are many causes contributing to hundreds of young democrats are so offended at the general tone of the contest for the democratic nomlna tion that they openly avow their intention to vote direct for Frothingham. Many thousands of Donovan men are smarting under the blows delivered in the caucus fight. "They openly express their indignation at Fitzgerald for nestling in Lomasney's bosom for more than four years and then, to accomplish his own ambitions, turning upon the ward 8 leader the vials of scorn and wrath. No is too severe for one whose friendship Fitzgerald sought fawningly and persistently for years.

"In addition to these two classes of Fitzgerald's opponents, there are thousands of democrats who fall to see any question of party at stake and who place their city's honor and their own civic duty above mere party ties. Among the latter class are many friends of the late Mayor Collins. They cannot con- with serenity prospect of giving the chair honored by four years of Collins, to his most persistent and malignant critic.
