said the inquiry by this committee has
shown greater moral obliquity and
moral obtuseness on the part OF the
persons important In the business
world. than did the shocking revala-
tions in regard to the Equitable Life
He said there was public sentiment
and sense of outrage at what had been
done. and that II would undoubtedly
meet with general commentator II he
were 10 select certain Individual trans
actions and place them before the
grand jury at once. However he re-
garded II as his duty to wait until the
investigation committee had completed
its work and then to ask for an extra
ordinary grand jury and lay before II
the matters disclosed by his own study
OF the situation. as well as that of oth-
ers. This. he said. he intended to do.

mayor of Greater New York city for
the four years term beginning Jan. p

term of two years. the state Legislature
having recently amended the city char
ter SO as to provide for q four years
tenure OF office for officials OF Greater
New York
The Tammany convent lon was held
in Carnegie hall amid much enthusi
asm. The fact that the entire ticker
had been decided upon beforehand did
not seem TO diminish the ardor of the
delegates of the five Burroughs OF the

only member of the present admins
tratlon re-nominated. rest OF ticket be.
ing as follows:
omptroller-Herman A. Metz
For president of the Board OF Alder
men-Patrick F. MCGOWAN OF Manhat-
tain.
A resolution was adopted highly
commencing President Roosevelt for
his services in bringing about peace
between Japan and Russia.
Mayor Mcclellan in accepting the
nomination declared II had come &c
him unasked and unsought. He said he
was pledged to no man or group OF
men; pledged only to the people TO do
his duty to the best OF his ability.
Mr.. Mcclellan spoke briefly, but took
occasion to touch upon the question
OF municipal ownership OF public util-
tiles:
las Democrat" he said, II believ.
that that community is best governed
which is least governed and that
where individual effort and private en-
terprise can accomplish the same re-
suit as government. government has nc
right to interfere.
Where, however. public utilities
conducted by private enterprise fail in
giving the people an adequate srvice
then / believe II is the duty of the
government to take control"
The platform adopted touches upon
municipal ownership and declared It
had long been accepted as a Demo
cratic doctrine.

New Orleans. oct. THE chill In
the air and cooler temperature in por-
lions OF Louisiana have Frightened the
spirits of the people generally and
raised hope that with improving con-
dItIons in every direction complete re-
sumption of business is not many days
distant. More communities are init
mating their desi.e to remove rsstric-
tons as soon as reasonable safety will
permit. st. James parish is TO lift her

will be the first step to wiping out
quarantine altogether.
Natchitoches has made concessions
already. and Il Is likely will soon throw
herself open to the whole state. Owing
to the guarantees many terms of
courts had to be deferred, but arrange
