Million Dollar Schwab didn't exhibit
million dollar caution in his structures
on organized labor. Schwab probably
held different views when he was a
workingman and the men doubtless
know it. His remarks have turned the
labor men against the President of the
Billion Trust, which is nothing gained
for the latter.

Council Proceedings

The meeting of Council last evening
caused considerable interest, and its ac-
ton will most probably cause num-
Der of people to feel that the body has
awakened and that they mean business.
The Benwood & Bellafre Ferry Com
pany was granted a franchise, provid-
ing that the company observe all or
dinances governing the same This
franchise has been asked for a number
of times, and the granting of it was
quite surprise. 1t is now thought
that those who are connected with the
building of the new bridge will push
the construction of same, The body
also instructed the mayor, marshal and
police to enforce the law in regard to
gambling, and the opening and closing
of saloons. mis- latter act is a pretty
warm one and is considered hard blow
to the administration, but is only what
the conservative people of the city
thought would be the outcome of the
reckless and brave way that the law
was being handled.

FOREIGNERS AT HENLEY.

An agitation against the admission of foreign
crews TO the Henley regatta has begun in the
London papers. 1t seems TO have started or at
least TO have become vigorous since the recent
races. and Is all the more significant OH that ac-
count, as well as more respectable, for Pennsyl-
vania did not win the famous trophy. and moth
ing occurred TO increase the fears of English
men that they may lose it in the near furure.
So far can judge from the protests re-
ported by cable the discussion is for the most
part friendly enough though one or two hirts
Of irritation conveyed. Thus, a correspond
ent of ''rhe Daily News complains that Amer
leans detract from the enjoyment al Henley"

whole atmosphere is a tumble of Stars and

feated by Pennsylvania. it may be overlooked.
In a letter TO The London Times Mr. r. c.
Lehmann who has trained two Harvard crews
I'm recent years. and is much liked and respected
by American university oarsmen, expresses
more serious view, and one which may not un-
naturally be shared by many Englshmen He
says:

stead OF an amusement. Thus rowing " Guild

would lose all its charm in atmosphere of
unhealthy excitement produced by international
competition.
There is nothing in these observations of n

ought to annoy Americans We are sure that

in England have ever resorted to trickery of any
sort. He says merely that the employment by

HOPhINS'S CANCELLED WILL.
THE CONTEST OVER 1T PROMISES TO BE
LONG AND BITTER

LUNG AND BITTER.
With the lawyers on both sides confident of
victory. the contest over the will of Robert E
Hopkins. the signature of which is cancelled
promises to be long and bitter one Speakiur
OF the case yesterday. Joseph w Middlebrook.
special guardian of Robert f. Hopkins tr. said:
/ am confident that Mr.. Hopkins marked out
his name himself. as he wished to make a new
will This is reasonable. The will in question
was made ten years ago, when Mr. Hopkins
first came to Tsrrytown. In il he made be-
quests TO the places where he formerly resided
1 am sure he intended making new will to
make some bequests TO Tarrytown institutions"
How is IT, then that he cancelled his old will
before new one was made?" he was asked
That's human nature" was the reply
II is peculiar and mystifying fact that while
Mr.. Hopkins had safe deposit vault his will
should be found in old blue envelope In an
empty drawer in his desk Clarence S. Dawson
who represents those who wish to have the will
declared valid said:
Murder will out. Mr.. Hopkins's will was
tampered with. and the guilty party will yet be
known. The marks across Mr.. Hopkins's name
were OF a vicious character, and the expert so
testified. Mr.. Warren and Mr., Chambers
searched the desk carefully. and it was not
there: yet two hours later IL was found
Are you there will in the desk
drawer when the search was made?" was asked
II positive"
Mr.. Hopkins's desk was in a small room OFF a
large office and Mr.. Middlebrook asserts that
II was rather dark in the room. He says that
the envelope. being faded blue could he easily
overlooked on the other hand IL is declared
that persons searching for such important
document would have felt in the drawer and
would surely have found the will II 1t had been

New-York tribune., 1901-07-12

The exigencies Of the State canvass. which en-
abled the conservatives to keep Bryan and Bry-
anism out Of the platform, also compelled the
admission to that instrument of the planks
drawn by Mayor Tom l.. Johnson and his fol
lowers -planks which breathe a spirit of radl-
calism quite as extreme as that which the
hooted Nebraska leader carried into his two
excited and passionate national campaigns.
Between Bryanized or a Johnsonzed Democ-
racy there is certainly little TO choose. But
whatever its effect on the future policies of the
party there can be no doubt that the Ohio con-
vention has dealt staggering blow at Colonel
Bryan's pretensions TO continued party leader
ship. 1t is blow from which he may partially
recover. But the suddenness and violence with
which it fell will leave him stunned politically
for several months to come. 1t would be too
much to expect. perhaps, that it will leave him
speechless well.
