GROUT AND FORNES OUSTED
HINRICHS AND INQUIRE NOW ON
FUSION TICKET.
Matter Definitely Settled at cOnven-
lions Last Night of the Citizens Union
and Republican organizations-cha-
ot.c Condition of Democratic Party In
Brookiyn.

New York, Oct. 1.-THE uncertainty
regarding the action of the citizens
union and republican organizations on
the question oS ousting Messrs. Grout
and Fornes from the fusion ticket was
removed tonight when both conven-
tions re-convened and voted unanimous
ly to rescind the nominations for comp
troller and aldermanic president, made
at the original convention and to nomi-
nate instead Frederic w. Hinrichs of
Brooklyn and E. ]. Mcclure of Manhat-
tan. At the citizens union meeting in
Cooper Union, presided over by Francis
.C. Huntington, little interest was shown
in the nominations. At the close of the
convention the delegates from he Bronx
met and nominated Coroner Joseph l.
Berry, who has also been nominated by
the republicans, as borough president.
The republican convention in Carnegie
hall was called to order by Former
Lieutenant Governor Woodruff, who
scored Grout and Fornes as having lent
themselves to conspiracy of men
banded together against good govern
ment.
The chaotic condition of the demo-
cratic organization in Brooklyn was
made evident tonight when Martin w.
Littlejohn, the democratic candidate for
borough president, made his first cam
paign speech at the Seymour club, SEN
ator McCarren's organization in the
Fourteenth assembly district. Mr.. Lit
tleton was introduced just after resolu-
tions endorsing all the candidates on the
city ticket were read and unanimously
carried amid cheers. He Immediately
launched into speech condemning the
course of Leader Murphy and the dele
gates from Tammany at the convention
and made it plain that the leaders in
Willoughby street would not support
either Grout or Fornes.

LATTER BARELY ESCAPES SINK
ING At HER DOCK.
Torpedo Boat Had Taken
Dive and Her Long Stay Under Water
Was Causing Alarm when She Sud-
denly Appears and Pokes Her Nose
Into the Torpedo Boat.

New York, Oct. THE submarine
torpedo boat Shark during a trial at
Greenport, L. L, to-day rammed the
torpedo boat Dahlgren, which barely es-
capped sinking with her crew of seven
men. Lieutenant C. Nelson took the
Shark out for trial and steamed out
into the middle of the bay. making sew
eral quick dives. When she reached
the opposite shore she headed back for
a long spin under water. The boat
poked her nose under the surface and
dived down fifty-eight feet. 1t was
planned to run three and half miles
at the rate of six and a half miles an
hour. Those ON shore who figured when
she would rise were becoming alarmed
when she did not appear, when sudden
ly she rose less than twenty feet from
the Dahlgren, which was lying at the
dock.
Lieutenant Nelson signalled to re-
verse her engines, but her headway was
too strong and she crashed into the
port side of the Dahlgren, lying at the
lpier. Water Immediately rushed into
the Dahlgren and she settled alarming
ly. The sailors rushed for collision
mat, which was placed over the gap
where the water was rushing into the
boat. The steam pump was set work
| ing and after half an hours hard work
got control of the water. 80.
An examination showed that a hole
four feet long had been torn through
the plates just after the aft engine
room. The only mark on the Shark was
the tearing of the paint from her RAM

Yale put up an article Of football yes
terday afternoon at the Yale field
against Wesleyan which might well be
included in the "all spice" variety. For
ginger and pepper no team in many
years has shown such rapid improve
ment as the present one. Wesleyan was
completely overwhelmed. being defeat-
ed by the score of SO to 0.
During the first half it drizzled and
the ground and ball were both as slip
perry as a creased pig. but Yale held the
ball well and in the arst half by clean
straight football scored three touch
downs.
In the second half good force of SUBJ
stitutes went into the Yale line. Wes-
leyan seemed somewhat weary after the
effort to hold the giant Yale line in the
first half, and dissolved time and again
before the Yale substitutes. The coach
ers were decidedly pleased at the show
ing of the team and Wesleyan declared
that Yale's attack was as strong as
that of last year. The lineup and score

Whitewater, Va. Oct. 7.-The sixty
foot, steel built flying machine, the cli-
max of years of exhaustive study in the
effort OF Professor Samuel F., Langley,
secretary oS the Smithsonian Institute,
to solve the problem Of mechanical
flight IN mid4air was launched to-day
and the experiment proved a complete
failure. The immense airship sped rap
idly along It's seventy foot track, was
carried by its own momentum for one
hundred yards and then fell gradually
into the Potomac river. whence it
emerged total wreck. Professor
Charles M. Manley, who has been Pro-
fessor Langley's chief assistant, made
the ascent in the aerodrome and es-
capped with ducking. At no time was
there any semblance of flight, the in
itiai momentum. the iightness of the
machine and the sustained surface of
the wings furnishing the conditions
which account for the hundred yard
transit OF the air-bird from its sixty
foot elevation to the water. An official
statement made after the test admitted
that the experiment was unsuccessful
bu asserted confidence in the ultimate
success of the invention.
The launching took place at 1875
o'clock this afternoon from the super
structure OF the house boat in the Poto-
mac river Secretary Langley remained
in Washington. When all was ready
