BUSY CAREER.
Sketch Of Life and Achievements OF
Carrot A. Hobart.

Carrot A. Hobart was eminently sue
cessful botl i'll business and politics. His
reputation as a man of affairs and as one
of the shrewdest business men In the
country was perhaps greater than his
reputation as political leader and states
man until his election to the vice presi-
born in 1914 at Long Branch, N J. His
ancestors on his fathers side were Eng
lish and on his mothers side Dutch
Thirty-three years ago he was graduated
from Rutgers college and began teach
ing school. Three months later he en-
tered upon the study of law with Socrates
Tuttle. a prominent lawyer in Passaic
county, and who was at that time mayor
of Paterson. Young Hobart is said to
have arrived at Paterson with but dol
lar and fifty cents in his pocket and
from this small beginning he made his
way unaided to wealth and prominence
In 1869 he was admitted to the bar and
the same year he married the daughter
of Mr.. futile
Mr. Hobart made his way rapidly at the
bar Of his native state and his bent led
him early into politics. In 1871 he was
made city counsel Of Paterson and in 1872
was elected to the state assembly, of
which body he was chosen speaker in the
following year Even during those early
years he displayed that accurate knowi-
edge of men and exhibited that wonder
full executive ability which were the key
of his later success both in business and
politics. At the end of his second year in
the assembly he retired to devote himself
to the law and to the numerous business
interests with which he had become iden-
titled. But the demands of his party
would not admit of his remaining long in
private life, and in 1876 he was elected to
the state senate, of which body he was
chosen president in.1SS1. During his serv-
ice In the senate he was chairman of the
judiciary committee and was the author
of many measures of Importance which
are now on the statute books of the state
of New Jersey His party became more
and more eXacting In its demands upon
him. His was recognized as safe and
guiding hand, and from 1880 to 1891 he was
at the head of the state Republican or

Against the Government.

PARIS, Nov. H.-The senate, sitting as
high court for the trial of the con-
spiracy cases, resumed today the exam
ination of M. Guerin, who insisted that

with politics, but had merely defended
the working classes against the power of
the Jews. and said it had no connection
with the Royalists. M. Guerin also insist
ed that he had never plotted against the
republic. Adverting to the Fort Chabrel
incident, NJ Guerin expiated upon the

Locally little is known about the re-
port from Chicago to the effect that Man
ager Comiskey will compete in Chicago
with the National league as manager of
club in the old Western league as re-
christened the American league.
Patrick H. Comiskey, his brother, and
treasurer of the st. Paul club, stated yes
terday that he had not been advised that
the Chicago report was true, although
mail advices confirmed the report that
LOTUS had Joined the Hart forces, which,
he said, was a surprise to Charles Comis-
key, so far as he knew. He had been
negotiating with E. B. Smith of this city
for the sale of the st. Paul franchise
but no decision had been reached as yet.
Mr.. Smith was quoted last night as
saying: Il can't very we'll see how Com
iskey can abandon this field, except at a
considerable sacrifice. He Is holding a
lease on the ball park from me, and this
does not expire until 1901. 1t is possible
the manager may think he can better af-
ford to 60 to Chicago and lose the amount
of the lease than remain IN st. Paul and
take chances of another season. I con-
slider st. Paul a good ball town today
but a poor ball club won't receive pat
ronage. In that regard st. Paul is no
different from any other town. So long
as the standard was maintained, and the
local club had reasonable chance for
taking the pennant the attendance was
gcod but, when the club began to run
down, the patronage went with it. Comis-
key has said something about having a
ball grounds nearer town, thereby insinu-
ating that the small attendances were due
to the location of the present grounds.
There is not thing to such an argu-
n.ent. st. Paut has one of the best ball
grounds in the country. both as to the
grounds themselves and the location, and
1 bar none. Lexington park is as acces-
sible as most grounds, and more accessi-
bic than several of them. Mr.. Comiskey
knows well that if the grounds were
brought closer into town, that, by so
doing, he would cut off Sunday games,
and deprive the management of one of
the largest sources of revenue
There is no reason why St. Paul
should not have club, and a good one
and l hope the matter will be taken up
by our public-spirited citizens.
81 was asked if I would purchase the
franchise. l told Patrick Comiskey that
1 was too Old man to assume the cares
and responsibilities of running Grub.
I asked him for a figure. and, after con-
sulting with his brother, he came back
and named the price-$12,O0 I think five
or six thousand dollars would be nearer
q correct estimate of the value of the
franchise. If Comiskey does not care to
remain here I think parties can be found
In this city who would be willing to try
their hand at running a pail club here.
''It is important that ST. Paul should
have a good ball club. The interests of
the city demand it. A town that allows
it's sport to run down, soon runs down
itself, am willing to aid the new man
agement to the extent of my ability"

RACE FOR MANILA.
American Warships Close Upon

WASHINGTON. Nov. a.-The ocean
race for Manila is becoming closer. The
New Orleans arrived at Alden. today.
Her principal competitor, the Brooklyn,
sailed from Alden yesterday for Colombo
She Is consequently only about three
days, at most, ahead of the New Orleans,
allowing time for the latter to coal at
Alden. The Brooklyn lost time to the New
Orleans in going through the canal and
Red Sea.
Right in the rear of the leaders the Ma
rietta and the Nashville are having
race of their own to Manila, with the
chances In favor Of the latter. The Nash
vile sailed from Port Said for Alden on

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-George Dixon,

rounds before the New Broadway Ath-

old self, but during the majority Of the
rounds. while he always held Lenny
safely, it was only too evident that the
champion had gone backwards. If to-
nights bout brought out his best points,
1t is pretty nearly certainty that Terry
McGovern will wrest the featherweight
championship from the dusky boy who
has held it for so many years.
