NE RELY
MENTIONED

Judging from recent events Col. Dick
inson's interests are being carefully
guarded during his absence in Europe.
Notwithstanding the efforts Of Mayor
Pagan and George L. Record to weaken
his influence as Republican leader the
Colonel seems to have things pretty
much his own way. Here in Hudson
County the organization forces are. with
q few exceptions, with the Colonel in any
move he may make and Gov. Stokes,
BY vetoing the Duff water bond bill prac-
tically told the administration adherents
that he preferred to take Col Dickinson's
view of the matter to that of the Mayor.
The Mayor told the Governor the bill
was an absolute necessity in order to dis
pose of the bonds. Col. Dickinson, on
the other hand. assured the Governor
that the people of Jersey City did not
want the bill any more than they want
Pagan for another term.

OFFICIAL INQUIRY ON


WASHINGTON, July "a, 19o5.-The
Investigation of the accident on the Ben
nington is to be one of the most rigid
affairs of the kind the Navy Department
has ever known. While there are now
no indications Of neglect of duty, care
lessness or inefficiency, the heads of the
Department here wish to know the exact
cause of the accident, if possible. and
the conditions leading up to it.
The steam log of the Bennington for
the cruise from Honolulu to San Diego
has reached the Navy Department, hav-
ing been telegraphed from San Diego.
While it has not been made public, it >
known that it shows that at various times
during the voyage to San Diego the pres
sure on the Bennington's boilers was high
er than 145 pounds, the point fixed as the
maximum of safety. This may have been
the cause of the leak which evidently
caused lhe eAploSlOu. Cutll lew WcehS
ago the Bennington's boilers were con-
Asidered capable of carrying 165 pounds
pressure, but this was lowered about the
time of the trip to Honolulu to
I45 pounds.
officials of the Navy Department are
now carefully studying the log, endeavor-
ing to find any reason or condition set
forth there which might show that the
continued use Of the boilers might be dam
gerous. If it is shown that dangerous
conditions existed and that no precau-
tionary steps were taken, some one is
grievously at fault.
The last regular inspection of the Ben
nington's boilers and engines took place
in May, but the report of it has not yet
reached the Navy Department The regu-
lations of the navy require that the boil
ers of every vessel be inspected once in
every three months. The year is divided
into quarters. The first quarter of the
year ended on June 20. and the inspec-
tors report for that period should have
arrived by this time. It is expected WITH
in a day or two.

According to reports there will be some
lively doings in the Republican camp
after the Dickinson outing. Because Col
Dickinson slaid down" to the Mayor in
the fight for a denomination, the Fagan-
ties are going around with chips ON their
shoulders. Col. Dickinson isn't saying
anything about his plans, but his close
friends make the significant remark,
.Wait till after the outing" Mayor Fa-
gan. it is not believed will have every
thing his own way. He will have no op-
position for nomination for third
term, but when he starts in to tell the
organization what should and what
should not be done, Col Dickinson and
his followers will think it time to assert
themselves. There is bound to be clash
between the rival factions as to how the
campaign should be conducted. Indica-
tions are that the Mayor and his political
manager, George L. Record. will insist
ON the Mayoralty campaign being carried
on independently of the Shrievalty cam
paign. This would practically be telling
Col. Dickinson and the organization that
the Mayor has no confidence in either.

They declare they have nothing against
