DEVERY BLOCKSLOW VOTES
POLICEMEN WHO FAVOR LOW TRANS
FERRED so THEY CAN'T REGISTER.


FERRED so THEY CAN'T REGISTER.
According to the statements of several police
recently made in the Police Department have
been for the purpose of preventing those mem
bers ot the force who are believed to favor the
candidacy of Seth Low from registering. Many
OF the policemen who have become the victims
Of Devery's suspicion have been transferred so
fa- from their homes that by the time they
leave their posts and reach their homes the
registration booths are closed
The number of transfers which were made
last week is said have aggregated more than
three hundred On last Friday alone the first
day of registration, 16S patrolmen were changed
from one end of the city to the other and it is
said that in the course of the preceding ten days
men had been transferred in wholesale fashion,
but as quietly as possible. The transfer of 16S
men last Friday, however. in spite of the secrecy
which the department attempted TO throw
around IT, attracted much attention that II
was called 10 the notice Of Commissioner Muir
ply on Saturday morning. The Commissioner,
as was printed in The Tribune. took refuge in
denials. He at first said that there had been
transfers. and then he said that the number
had been exaggerated. Finally. he instructed
Inspector Cortright to give out the official
bility over to Sergeant Sugden. and Sergeant
Sugden shifted ii TO Sergeant O'Conner Finally.
Sergeant O'Conner declined 70 give out a COM
plste list but admitted that as many as forty
three policemen had been transferred since the
preceding Saturday
Two of the policemen who yesterday revealed
the plan to keep them from voting for Low are
now stationed near the new Custom House.
Their homes are in The Bronx. One. who wished
quences which might befall him in case II was
known. said
The ma jority Of the police force despise Dew
cry and the gang that is now in control of Tam
many Hall. We are afraid say anything
was. Many of US have families and we do not
care 10 lose our means of livelihood The most
of them want to vote for Low. and there Is no
one who knows that better than Devery. But,
from the way he IS handling the Big Chief
has evidently decided that he does not want us
70 vote. Because of these long distance trans
fers the most of us who are suspected of favor
ing Low win be una BILE to register. As for my
self. I have spend three hours in going and
coming from work. From what 1 understand
there are more than three hundred and thirty
three who have been held up like myself
A Republican leader of a district west Of Cen
trai Park said TO a Tribune reporter yesterday:
This charge that Devery is shifting his
so that the Low men cannot vote is borne out
by 4 conversation which l had the other day
with a patrOlman near my home He said that
he wanted to vote for Low, but did not expect
that he would be able to he had heard that
a transfer was coming. I have not had an op-
pOrtunitv TO find out whether or not his fears

r. b. MOLINEUI'S CHANCES.
COURT OF APPEALS MAY HAND DOWN De,
CISION IN HIS CASE TO-DAY

Albany Oct. 14.--It is believed by lawyers here
to-day that the Court of Appeals will. in all
probability. hand down a decision tomorrow
upon the appeal of Roland Il. Molineux's lawyer
for a new trial, although they would not be in
the least surprised if the judges should defer
disclosing their judgment some time longer,
since the points of law under consideration de-
mand careful thought. The only basis for the
belief that the Court of Appeals is likely to act
tomorrow is simply that the judges, after their
summer recess, have had time to consult
together about the case.
1t will be remembered that the case was
argued before them only few days before the
adjournment for the summer. and they had
time for "a careful consideration of the points OF
the appeal then. Few lawyers therefore,
pected an immediate decision on the reassem-
bling of the court. AS for the nature of the
decision that will be rendered. few persons
would venture to think that any disclosure has
been made regarding II. All that is positively
known is that than one opinion has been
written concerning the appeal. 1t sometimes
happens however. IL is said. that the Court of
Appeals after listening to two or three opin-
IONS condenses them into one.

GRAIN BROUGHT BACK HERE.
BOSTON DEALERS WAITING FOR HIGHER
PRICES AT BRITISH PORTS
rBY TELEGRAPH To THE TRIBUNE,

TBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
Boston. Oct. 14.-Grain shippers at this port
are allowing their grain to remain on the steam
ers and to be brought back to this country and
shipped again TO it's destination In the expecta-
ton of improvement in the grain situa-
ton in the mean time. The Furness Line
steamer Columbian which leaves London on
Wednesday for this port will bring back good
portion of her outward cargo of 1900 bushels
of wheat The Virginian of the same line,
which sailed from the Hoosac pier on October 3
for London. will bring back 10000 bushels of
wheat which she carried out. The Furness
steamer Appomatto. operating between New
port News and London, is coming westward
with 10000 out of 10000 bushels of grain
shipped Several other steamers TO do the
same If the present conditions hold.
This curious state of affairs is due in part 10
extremely low transatlantic freight rates pre-
yailing and partly to the scarcity of warehouses
on the other side. Steamship lines. with the
small amount of freight now aVatlabl can
compete with the London storehouses ana
utilize their vessels for storage purposes ana
have a cargo aboard ready to tranship when
grain is needed. London storage room being
scarce outside warehouses ask prohibitive prices
for their space that il proves TO be cheaper

last Most OF the grain now returning was
shipped before IT had actually been sold, ana
was shipped to cover previous carrying con-
tracts.

HEAVY FAILURE.
Supposed Wealthy MfnnesOtan Has
Liabilities of $125,OOO, with
No Assets.

St. Paul, Mimi, June IA special
from Olivia, Mimi, says: Hans
Gronnerud, who has for 40 wears
been one of the most respected citi-
zens of Renville county and sup
posed to be worth $25O,OOO, has failed
with reported liabilities amounting to
$125,000 and no assets. For many
years he has been the owner of the
Bank of Beaver Falls and a heavy
stakeholder in the Morton bank and
State bank, of Olivia, and the Rem.
vile Abstract company, and has
been engaged in loaning trust
funds for Wisconsin and eastern par
ties, as well as hundreds of people OF
the country, who have intrusted him
with their earnings.
Facts and figures are coming in
slowly, but enough is already known
which goes to show that the financial
collapse of Hans Gronnerud is by far
the most disastrous of any in the his
tory of southern Minnesota. Wild.
ows, hired girls, farmhands and farm.
ers are the ~-ctims of the Gronnerud
failure. 1t is understood that pre-
vious to his departure to points I'M
known Mr.. Gronnerud submitted a
statement of liabilities aggregating
nearly 100000, but according to au-
thoritative reports the amount will
far exceed that figure and farmers
will be the principal sufferers.

Platt Anne ndment Is Adopted With

of 1D to ii.

Havana. June I3.-The Cuban con-

accepted the Plat amendment by a
vote of 16 to II. The resolution to
accept was carried without discus
sion. Immediately after the opening
of the session Senors Tamayo, Viii
luendas and Quesada, constituting a
majority of the committee on rela-

gress, recommending that it be ac-
cepted and made an appendix to the
constitution.
Washington, June 13.-The news of
the adoption of the Platt amend
ment by the Cuban constitutional
convention was received with genu-
inc qualification here. The admins
tration officials all along have felt
confident that it's ratification would
be accomplished when the Cubans
realized that this government was
firm in it's attitude regarding the
amendment and that it's acceptance
would be necessary before the United
States would consent to withdraw it's
supervision from the island.

PERISH IN A MINE.
Eighteen Men Lose Their Lives in an
Explosion in a COlliery at
West Newton, Pa.

West Newton, Pa, June 12.-As the
result of explosion Monday night
in the Port Royal mines of the Pitts
burgh Coal company Is are. dead,
seven injured and thousands of dol
lars worth of property destroyed.
Twelve of the dead were men who
went into the mine as rescuers. What
caused the explosion and loss of life
is something the mine inspectors have
not yet determined. The officials of
the coal company declare that none
but regulation mine lamps were used,
while others are of the opinion that
one of the men carelessly ignited the
gas and caused one of the greatest
mine catastrophes in the history of
Westmoreland county.
