DEVERY MEANS TO RUN.
Says Tom Smith Invented the story That
He'll Quit the Race.

Pig Bill Devery almost exploded when he
read in the papers yesterday morning q
at atement attributed to his first lieut. tenant
Pete Garvey, to the effect that he had re-
solved to withdraw from the Mayoralty
race.
That one of Tom Smiths dirty tricks, -"
he said. when he had recovered sufficiently
to say anything. He knows licked him
and Goodwin to a standsti i'll at the primaries
and he knows that I'm going to beat Tam
many to death election day, 30 he tries to
pull the ground out from under me with
these lying stories.
But they won't do. The Peoples indie
pendent party has come TO stay. Their
candidate this year is William s. Devery,
and no power on earth can pull him out
of the race. We begin to organize in every
Assembly district In the city Tomorrow.
We will have our county committee, our
city committee and all other committees
that q good party needs, and on election
day you'll find the workers Of the Inde-
pendent Peoples party at the polls, We're all
ready to go ahead. and l guess Tommy
Smith knows II, and that is why he gets
up this fake about me pulling out.
Devery added a tail to his banner at
Twenty eighth street and Eighth avenue
yesterday. The tail has a sign on 1t to the
effect that Devery got 1850 votes at the last
primary Goodwin, I,l9S, and Bowling
$50, but that corrupt combination OF the
Bowling vote robbed Devery Of
his victory

CARELESS ABOUT JEWELS.
Loss and Recovery Of Precious stones IN
Newport-SOcicty Women Not Watchful.

NEWPORT, r.. l., Sept. 23.--The mystery
surrounding the loss and recovery OF Ola
monds on Sunday last and the identity OF
their owner are still the talk OF what few
cottagers there are remaining at Newport
1t has been sold that the jewels belonged
to Mrs. E. Moore Robinson and also to Mrs.
Richard Gambrill and. although neither
will admit knowing anything about the
affair. it is generally believed that Mrs.
John r. Drexel IL the owner.
Society women have fashion OF carry
ing their jewels In a small handbag while
on their way to social functions, adjoining
themselves with them on their arrival
at the house Of the host. 1t Is thought
in this way net only were the jewels lost
on Sunday, but that Mrs John r. Dre1el.
who has suffered twice before this season,
lost her diamonds and emeralCls in tho
same manner.
The jewels are placed in bag and then
carelessly placed in tho carriage. Often
the conveyance is an open carriage and it Is
probable that the small bag WIS brushed
out of the trap on Sunday. The loss
was reported at once and a reward Of
5000 offered for the return Of the jewels
and they we're found the following day.
No information will be given as to who
found the chamois bag or where it was
found, but there is report that the bag
was found by footman and that reward
was not necessary under the circumstances.
Mrs, Drexel has given up all hope Of find
inc her Jewels as 1t is now two months since
they disappeared and although the police
are working on the case they offer little
encouragement to Mrs. Drexel for their
recovery.
The police are confident that none Of the
losses of jewels by society women was
the work of thieves 1t is estimated that
during the summer Mrs. Drexel has lost
SIS, 900 worth of precious stones.
