With reference to politics. Admira

With reference TO politics, Admiral
Schley is quoted as saying:
II don't know quite what nave zone
IN he made by some enthusiastic friends
the tail of Mr.. Bryans kite. For men of
the army or navy to aspire TO public
place with their little acquaintance with
public men, and still less with pubic
offices, has always seemed to me absurd
| feel much as General Sherman did when
he said that if nominated he would not
accept, and that if elected he would
not serve. But in my case there Is no
such danger, for 1 have neither the ca
pacity nor the prominence that would
suggest me for anything more than l am
now. and l lose no sleep over such
things"

testify that she considered him Of unsound

was done. His loOks and aots were OF such a
character as to indicate that he was insane. and
many OF tho pupils said to her that they feared
him.

supt. Potter SAYS It Was Due to Engineer
sohurr's Poor Judgment.

Superintendent W. +. Potter OF tho Long
Island Railroad said yesterday that the roar
end collision on tho jamaica lay trestle on
Monday night was duo TO All error Of judgment
on the part Of Engineer Louis Schurr who was
in charge OF the special train that ran into the
rear OF the regular Ronkaway Beach train. A
mist hung over the trestle at tho time. but Mr.
Potter thinks that II was not dense enough to
ohscure the rear lights Of the regular train
Schurr served six years on the Long Island
Railroad AZ fireman and two years as engineer
He was considered careful man.
On account Of the frequency with which
trains cross this trestle, all trains are slowed
down to fifteen miles an hour. and an interval
Of tlve min utes Is supposed to be maintained
between trains following each other across.
The engineer OF u locomotive crossing the
trestl o has an unobstructed Wow OF its entire
length For THIS reason the signal system is
ners and is taken ur again at A4ueduet, where
the trains reach tho mainland II Ia Superin-
tcpdsnt Potters opinion that had Engineer
Schurr observed the ordinary rules OF tho COM
pany the accident would not have happened
Almost the entire Grew aboard the regular
ira In were injured. Conductor Snedeker was
found under . MAS OF wrrckage on one OF the
platforms One OF the hrak emen was jammed

No one was mortally hurt and tho list OF in
