Gus Of Republicans Of both factions
the timid ones seemed glad to be re-
lieved of obligations, as they were in
a chivalrous fashion by Quarles, Judge
Webb and Congressman Esch. The
LaFollette men were, of course, hand
somely generated by Messrs. Chyno-
weth. HOuser, Lenroot, -McGillivary
and others devoted to the cause Of the
governor They had some seventy
members of the legislature with them,
including second choice men in the
other camps, and the momentum of
success was too much for the op-
position.
A review of the rapidly unfolding
events lead some to think that Esch
was the one man who might have
united the opposition. He was per-
soma grata to the adminfstrat1o men.
whereas stalwart support made Judge
Webb scarcely more acceptable to the
governors following than Senator
Quarles. Mr. Esch had a nDe nucleus

Persistent RumOr.
There is a persistent rumor that he
has understandings which will operate
to turn over the senatorship TO some
one else liter, bat II IL not believed
by those who know the governor. He
will hold to the governorship for q
time-for months perhaps-but he VIII
appear in the senate. The salary il
not large fer a man Of affairs with
homes In two cities, but he will more
and more be in demand as speaker
and command large fees.
Mr.. Wagner, OF the Slayton lecture
bureau. has the governor on his list.
Mr.. Wagner heard him talk in Missou-
ri. in the speech when Governor La
Toilette said that II be lived in that
state he woHM vs4~ fcs Folk.
"It was the greatest speech I ever
heard said the expert on talent of
this sort. "He talked for three hours

ia bles and three chairs, was in action
all the time The audience never
budged through the afternoon. At the
close of the speech the whole crowd
followed him through the streets to

likely that from now on the governor
will make a good many speeches over
the country, as he Is poor and will wei
come the handsome remunera ton, and
there will be much curiosity to see and
hear the man who has held Wisconsin

AwmaKYng. and many Of them, as
we'll as new ones, are ambitions for
public career on their own merits, and
bare bills must run the gaun let of in
dividuality. 1t is the belief that. gem
orally speaking, the political situation
will clear up. 1t is not impossible
that some Of the administration men
are glad to have the governor 60 to
Washington for the future it opens for
themselves. And the senators have
been brought nearer together by rea-
son Of recent events. 1t was mys-
terry to many why hardy stalwarts
like Beach and White had voted for
Governor LaFollette for the senate,
but other legislators who wished to do
1t and yet disliked the imputation Of
band wagon" are said to be grateful
that they themselves were not made
conspicuous but that practically the
whole Republican forces gave the
honor to Governor LaFollette.
Happier Days Coming.
There is not much more chance for
friction between governor and senate,
at least 1t is believed the executive
will not seek II, and the disposition on
the part Of the opposition press 10 to
let the governor alone. There is a
group of earnest men in the senate
men Of both factions, who believe that
measures, not men, should engage
them henceforth, and they will seek to
enact some useful laws alolg the lines
familiar to our people. Not that hui
man nature will not assert itself The
primary election law may be amended
to exempt county school superin4
tendents, but the talk of trimming 1t
further to make 1t more workable will
likely be resisted by Its opponents on
the theory that the people wanted 1t,
now let them take 1t in full measure.
So with his mortgage taxation meas
ure. which Governor LaFollette
wishes now repealed The present
effect OF the non-enforced law is about
what opponents of credit taxation say
should be the right condition-and

for proper corporation restrictions, the
admindstra ton forces will find men in
the opposition to back them up and
real progress may be expected We
shall hear less of "stalwart" and half
breed from now on. The governor
has put his enemies under his feet. at
the same time shelving his terrific per-
soma lily to a great extent as q factor
in Wisconsin politics, and we shall
have happier days. There are some
ambitious men in his camp, men with

Elijah. And being in Washington a

Legislature sessions. United States

 Attempt to Reach Them Unsuccessful
 -Rescned After Eleven O'Clock, the
 Wind and Waves Having Gone Down.
 After spending seventeen hours on a small rock a mile off Branford in Long Island sound Harold F. Damon of Hon. ululu. William Baxter, jr., of Whining ton, Del, and ". H. Coursen of Scran- ton, Pa, three Yale students, were res- cued at Il o'clock last flight from their perious position by Captain Edward Baldwin of Branford, who put out from that place in a naphtha launch. The three students seemed little the worse for their experience and when they for their experience, and when they time. They started from Double Beach at 5 o'clock yesterday morning OF a duck shooting trip, two small duck boats being used. The men were about mile off shore when a fierce wind sprang up and they were compelled to land somewhere as their. small boats were nearly swamped. Taunton Rock, long flat rock, about mile off shore, was the nearest landing place, and they made for 1t. This rock at high tide is exposed for about fifty feet, and is al- most flat, being about six feet at its highest point. AS the day wore on the wind increased, and by noon it was blowing at the rate of forty miles an hour, and had kicked up an immense sea. The waves, which swept the sound, broke over the little island, and those from shore saw the perilous position of the three men. Tt was impossible to make rescue on account of the heavy seas, and the towing companies of this city would not risk sending a tug to the spot. Last night, however, the wind died down and at 10 o'clock William Stannard put out in duck boat for the island but returned, saying that he coud get no response to his shouts. He was able to get within thirty feet of the rock. About an hour later Captain Baldwin went out with his naphtha launch and found the men safe and sound, lying under their upturned duck boats.
 They had prepared to spend the night on the rock. The students were met by several Yale men, who went to Branford and who had spent hours ill their efforts to have their companions rescued. The report spread through the city that three Yale men had been lost in the sound and there was much ex- citement throughout the college com- munity. Damon is a junior and Baxter and Coursen are seniors in the academic department. They were we'll supplied with food, they say, and could have got through the night comfortably.

AN HEROIC SEA CAPTAIN
LAsHED TO THE WHEEL HE BEACHES VESSEL IN SOUND.

Schooner James Parker Has Tough Time of It fin a Smart Gale from
 BangOr-Awash in Seas for Hours
 All Hands Safe and the Cargo, Too
 Captain Davis Was Taken Ashore fin
 Collapsed Condition.
 Newport, R. l., Nov. 15.-The Fall River schooner James Parker, with her ensign flying union down, with Mrs. William F. Davis, the captains wife, and two others of a benumbed crew lashed to the deck house and with Captain Davis tied to the wheel in water that constantly broke over him, trying to keep the craft head on to the seas, was picked up in a leaking con- dition off Brenton's reef to-day by the tug Solicitor and the United States tor pedo boat Dahlgren.
 Mrs. Davis, with the two members of the crew, Charles Lewis and Manuel Fernando, were taken from their pre- carious position by the launch Colum- bia, which accompanied the Dahlgren to the scene.
 They were in pitiful condition from exposure to the wintry seas and gale and required medical aid as soon as they arrived at Newport.
 Captain Davis stood heroically at his post until he beached his vessel on the flats barely in time to save her from sinking in deep water.
 Captain Davis time and again was nearly torn from his post by the vol umes of water that poured over him. When the schooner began to settle he set a signal of distress and ordered Lewis Fernando and his wife to se- cure themselves to the deckhouse. He then tied himself to the wheel to await rescue. The distress signals were seen at the Prices Neck life-saving station. The lookout communicated with Cap tain O'Neill, of the tug Solicitor, which was near by, and sent word to Com IldIIuGE 0lSdNCo eSL SlIS bOl PCNO ohe"SAOlAs who ordered the torpedo boat Dahlgren to the scene.
 When his lashings were cut away Captain Davis collapsed and was brought to shore in an almost helpless condition.
 The Parker, with 121,OOO feet of lum- Der, was bound from Bangor, Me, for Port Chester, N. Y. When two miles south of Brenton1s reef lightship early this afternoon she encountered a heavy southwest gale. A heavy sea subjected the Parker to a severe pounding and nearly every wave swept the schooner's S decks and soon carried away the deck load. One huge sea smashed into the cabin, sweeping out Mrs. Davis, who saved herself from Being carried over board by grasping the casing of the door.

FIRE ON WINTHROP AVENUE.
An UneOmpIeted AIOuse-ss,O0O Damage
 DOne-Other Houses in Danger.


 DOne-Other Houses in Danger.
 4 fire of considerable size called the fire department to Winthrop avenue yesterday afternoon about four o'clock. The fire was in the new frame house at 26S Winthrop avenue, which is being built and is owned by Edward Minor of Fair Haven. The building was not yet completed and Keene, the plumber of Church street. was installing the plumbing apparatus on the first, floor. The men were using gasolene in the work. Owing to the delay of the fire department in arriving the blaze had gotten under considerable headway, so that the damage will be almost com plete and will amount to about $S,000.
 The Catholic institute, the Litte Sis ters of the Poor, which is almost di rectly opposite, although in danger, was, fortunately, protected by the wind. Two or three frame houses in the vicinity caught fire from cinders carried from the burning house, but the flames were easily extinguished by the chemical engine.
 MT. Minor, the owner and builder, charges the plumbers with gross care lessness in the use of fire, and said that he would claim damages.
