WAS TAGGART OUSTED?
REPORTED THAT EASTERN COM
MITTEEMEN FORCED HIM OUT.
Desperate Effort to Get Out the Party
Vote-Believed He is Prepar-
ing for the Worst.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

oPeciai D1sPatcn TO Ihe Evening Star.
: INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, November s. -
National Chairman Thomas Taggart re-
turned at midnight from mysterious trip
to Cleveland. Today he declined to con-
firm that the Ohio city had been his desti-
nation, but the train crew asserts that
Taggart boarded the train at Cleveland
and presented a ticket reading from the
Ohio city to Indianapolis.
Today the democrats throughout In
diana were surprised to hear it stated on
high authority in their own party that
Taggart had been ousted by the eastern
members of the committee. and that it was
no longer worth while denying it.
Investigation has tended to establish the
fact that Taggart himself had authorized
this statement, and republican workers as
sert that they see in 1t, whether 1t is true
or not, final desperate effort on Taggart's S
part to line up every democrat in Indiana,
securing his vote on the plea of sympathy
for Taggart, If 1t cannot be obtained on
any other basis
Others profess to see in the statement a
prediction effort on Taggart's part to
save himself If Indiana is lost to the party.
He is in possession of absolute information
that Indiana is republican by a majority of
vertising the fact that he was ousted by
the easterners seeks thus to throw all re-
sponsibility for this failure in Indiana and
elsewhere on their shoulders.
Today Taggart authorized the statement
that he will not return to New York at all,
at least not until after the election, and
possibly not then.

Bids for Mare Island Dry Dock.

The bureau of yards and docks will prob
ably reject all the bids which were re-
ceived last Saturday for the completion of
the big dry dock at the Mare Island navy
yard. The bids are considered excessive
and IL the contract were made on the basis
of those figures the cost of the dock would
far exceed the original estimate and the
amount available for the work. 1t is prob
able that the work will be carried on by
yard labor, except in certain parts, such
as furnishing the electrical material and
building the caisson, which would have to
be done under contract.
