REPLY TO HIS CRITIC

James F. Ryan. chairman OF the Demo-

yesterday. battling with the problem Of
how to get a full registration, and large
vote. on a limited capital Prominent
workers called at intervals during the
day, and each departed with his quota
of work to do. The Walsh campaign will
be Of great assistance to the committee
because Representative Walsh will GER
tainly not permit any large proportion OF
the charge incurred in getting out the
Democratic vote of Wards one, two and
three to be borne by the committee from
its scanty funds.
There IS some feeling among the ward
men because Mr. Walsh is to speak first
in Ward three. He was scheduled TO open
IN one OF the schoolhouses in Ward one,
but yielded to the desire Of Representative
Peter F. Sullivan for a talk in the latter s
ward

Magnificent Stallion Lowered
Worlds Trotting Record on
Half Mile Track by Quarter Of
a Second
TRIAL WAS MADE
FOR CHARITY'S SAKE
Forty Thousand Persons Went to
the Track at Toledo to See
Mr.. Ketcham Drive = InStitu-
tions Will Receive About $751;
600

Toledo, Oct. 11.-Cresceus lowered
the worlds trotting record this after
noon on a half mile track one quarter
of a second. The record was pre-
viously held by himself. having been
made on the Toledo track one year
ago. 1t was 200 ga He trotted this
afternoon for the benefit of the charit-
able institutions of the city and more
than 10000 people gathered to see
him.
This is the home of George Ketcham,
Cresceus' owner, trainer and driver,
and last spring before starting on the
circuit, Mr.. Ketcham in a letter to
Mayor Jones, announced that he would
give an exhibition trot on the Toledo
track for the benefit of all the Toledo
charitable institutions. The offer was
at once accepted. The result is that
they will now receive about $4,000.
The weather was all that could have
been asked for, and the conditions
for the race were very good. There
had been a high wind during the en-
tire morning but about noon it died
down and was scarcely noticeable in
the afternoon.
The famous stallion was given two
trips around the track early in the ar
ternoen for the purpose of warming
him up, and he showed up in such fine
form that Ketcham felt confident he
would lower his record by at least
second. but the animal got very
slow start, and Mike the Tramp, the
runnino nate, ged Cresceus to the fal
turn, !, he pulled out and Cresceu'
swung il. the trail.
With the runner at the wheel, Cresceui
buckled down to the work in hand. Or
they went in the same relative posi-
tons and they passed the quarter II

home stretch for the first half-mile
there was deafening applause from thu
throng, but Cresceus only increased hi.

the half, just minute and ~ seconds
after the word had been given. The
three-quarter pole was reached al

stretch again and Mike the TRAMP
pushed the stallion a little harder
Ketcham called on him to even greater
exertions, and finally swung the whip
over on his back, being careful, how
ever, that not even the snapper touched
the velvety skin. The horses went un-
der the wire in 2:09h which Is the
fastest mile ever trotted on half
mile track.
Gorgeous bouquets were carried
to Mr.. Ketcham as he came back to
the wire after stopping the horse
Later in the afternoon Cresceus was
given a mile to a wagon and he COW
cred it in PIP fiat 1t was the first
time the wagon had been used. Mr..
Ketcham was given a great ovation
after the trot.

Managers Of Both Political Par
ties Want More Efficient AS
sistant Assessors Appointed to
Serve Another Year
MANY VOTERS ARE
DROPPED FROM LISTS
Both Parties Have Suffered Alike
and the City Is Out $4,000 That
Should Be Paid as Poll Taxes
Fully 1000 Names Dropped
Since Last Year

More faithful and more efficient as
sistants assessors to do the hustle for
poll tax payers in Worcester the cry
that / going up from both political
camps in the city. The voting lists
that were posted a few weeks ago
have been the subject OF considerable
study by the Republican and Demo-
cratic party managers since they were
received from the printers and in
both headquarters there Is consterna-
ton at the great number of names
that have been dropped, and names
of men who might be found very
easily IL the assistant assessors did
anything like what they are expected
70 do.
The Democratic members are hot un-
der the collar at the large number OF
names that have been dropped IN
Ward three and a similar cry comes
from the Republican managers in
Ward Ave. A careful study Of the
lists has been made at Republican
Headquarters and last night reporter
| for The SpJ was told 1t Is estimated
| that at l~Ast 1000 voters have not
been found by the assistant assessors.

discomfort among the men whose
names have been ufopptus Dut ~ a.
so means q big financial loss to the
city in poll takes
Every man skipped by the assistant
assessors means loss Of 81 to the city
and on this basis, it is estimated the
city treasury is out about $4,000 by the
failure Of the assistant assessors to DO
their full duty for which they were APP
pointed. The Republican managers
are not kicking because they have sur
fered alone. They are satisfied there
was no plan to drop the men OF their
political belief from the lists, because
the Democrats have suffered just as
severely as they. At the headquarters
last night it was suggested that better
men be scured to do the work next
wear. even If the city has to pay them
$40 a day, because faithful men who
viii do their full duty viii more than
save the city the extra expense by
getting all the poll tax payers in sight.

TACTICS CRITICIZED
IN C0NSTANTIN0PLE

London, Oct. H. - 1.-The United
States legation here" says a dispatch
from Constantinople to the Daily Tele-
graph, have received information,
which they withhold, of some expected
developments in the Stone affair. On
Tuesday it was supposed an attempt
would be made to capture the band.
but nothing has been heard since Mon
day when Mr. Haskell reached Sama-
kov. he Is not provided with funds.
but has been empowered to arrange
the lowest terms
THE attempts to capture the band
have made the brigands shy Of future
traps. thus rendering negotiations
difficult Such tactics are severely
criticized here. The brlgands may in
revenge kill their captive. Moreover,
the fact that no money was produced
on the first demand may cause the
brigands to mutilate Miss Stone as a
warning"

dore SChIey When Latter Was
Off CienfuegoS

Washington, Oct 11.-Capt. F. E.
Chadwick, who was in command Of
Admiral SIMPSONS flagship the New

miraPs staff during the war with

court for a short time this afternoon.
He was the last witness called ana

der cross-examination by Mr.. Rayner,

questions to ask him. There was con-
siderable interest in Capt. Chadwick

Capt Chadwicks testimony related
very largely to dispatches sent by Ad-
miral Sampson to Commodore Schley
while the latter lay off Cienfuegos, in
May, 1898, and to the code of signals
agreed upon between Capt. McCalla of
the Marblehead and the Cuban forces
operating near Cienfuegos. He said
this code had not been sent to Commo-
dore Schley by dispatch because Capt
McCalla had expected to join the COM
modore Immediately and communicate
the code to him He also told of being
present at an interview between Ad-
1niral Sampson and Commodore Schley,
in which the latter had expressed his
intention to be loyal to the command
er-in-chief. He related in detail the
change of opinion concerning the
whereabouts of Cervera's fleet by Ad-
miral Sampson on May q, between
the sending of the two dispatches of
that date by Admiral Sampson to
Commodore Schley, one of which was
ated at Key West and the other at
Havana.
Capt. Chadwick said he had not APP
proved of Admiral SIMPSONS dispatch
of May 20, congratulating Commodore
Schley on his accomplishments to that
date.
Five other new witnesses were heard
during the day. two Of them being
officers of the New York. One of these
was Lieut.. c. c. Marsh, the flag sec
rotary of Admiral Sampson, who testi-
fled concerning dispatches to Commo-
dore Schley and the other was the
ships flag lieutenant, Lieut.. E. L.
Bennett; Lieut.. Theodore G. Dewey, a
nephew of Admiral Dewey, who served
on the Massachusetts,; Lieut.. Adelbert
Althouse, also of the Massachusetts
and Lieut.. Francis Boughter, who
served on the Marblehead. were the
other new witnesses of the day.
