NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 8, 19o0.-Ross
l.. Mcdowell, who occupies a political
berth in the Secretary of States office,
and who for many years was recognized
as the Republican leader in Cranbury
Township, met defeat at the primaries
Monday, and was unable to attend to his
duties at the State House yesterday.
While crowd of his enemies were
drinking over his political defeat in the
parroom of the American House, at Gran
bury, Monday evening, he was carried in
TO the parlor of the hotel in a condition
more dead than alive
Overwork and the severe mental strain
OF the contest together with the crushing
realization that many of his friends had
proved to be traitors to him, brought
ABOUT the nervous collapse of Mcdowell.
AFTER hearing of his defeat, the leader
who had once been followed by the united
party of the township, had not walked
nifty yards from the hall, when grasping
the arm of friend, he sank to the side
walk in an unconscious condition, the re-
suit of a. rush of blood to the head
Mcdowell was working for the Hicks
Carson combine in the Republican Sena-
torial wrangle, and his list of delegates,
which he himself headed, was beaten by
only four votes. This means that Nc
Dowell will be displaced as County
Committeeman.
After the election of Mckinley, Mellow
ell was candidate for postmaster in his
nome town, but was defeated, and later
he was taken into that haven of rest for
disappointed candidates for postmaster

Unlike John L. Hendricks, who after
being turned down for the postmastership
IN his own town, got a berth in the Secre-
tary OF States office and Immediately de-
cided to escheW his county of Bergen,

Chairman Gourley next introduced ex-
Judge Robert S. Hudspeth. His reception
was as cordial as that rendered Mr.. Nc
Dermott. His speech was short and to
the point. 1t was delivered with the ex-
Judges characteristic vim and earnest
ness. He said he felt deeply impressed
with the hearty reception accorded him,
but felt at a loss as to where to begin
after the masterful, intelligent and elo-
quent discussion of the issues by Mrc.
McDermott
Then he launched boldly into imperial
ism and said he. felt sure that that vast
audience in front of him, gathered in a
han dedicated to Christianity and educa-
tion, would set the seal of their righteous
indignation upon the present administra-
tion that threatened to undermine the
foundations of this Republic.
He said that while sitting there and
listening to the eloquent Mr.. McDermott
he was inspired with the idea that the
flag of this country should be cleansed
not only of McI<inieyism, but Hannaism,
who, like a colossus, was sweeping aside
the Constitution of the United States, all
AS to the war with Spain the people of
this country were restrained by Mr. Han
ma until the blowing up of the battleship
Maine and after the treaty was signed
it was declared that the inhabitants of
the conquered countries should have the
immunities of citizenship. But Hanna got
the ear of Mckinley, and it was pro-
claimed that the Constitution did not fol-
low the Flag.
The ex-Judge declared that this country
was being made cats paw for European
nations, particularly England.
Il am opposed to the United States be-
coming cats paw of Great Britain" he
declared. amid thunderom applause
In closing a brilliant speech the ex-Judge
said solemnly that he had never perform
ed any public act that he did not consider
an eminently proper one, and he was will
ing to stand or fall by his record
The Hon. Mr. Hunnecker, of Connecti-
cut, and James Hamill also addressed the
meeting and stirred the audience to the
highest pitch of enthusiasm. Mr. Hun
necker discussed the coal strike in Penn

General Bird w. Spencer, who also

General Sewell directed that the squab-
Bile be ended by taking John J. Slater
out of the three cornered fight and then
allowing John F. Stuhr and John Wright
to contest for the nomination.
When General Spencer and Candidate
Mckee left General Sewell it was with
the understanding that they would go
back to Passaic and use their utmost en-
deavors to get things Strengthened out in
the Republican camp there, and the sue
cess of General Sewell's intervention will
be watched with much eagerness all over
the State.
Former Senator William c. Parry, of
Burlington county ran up to tell the big
leaders that the farmers of his county
were not going to bolt the Republican
