 Party Bossism- . NEW YORK, Oct. I9.-For five min utes District Attorney Jerome stood on the platform of Carnegie hall last night. facing an audience that filled every nook and cranny of the big building.
 It seemed as if the cheering would never end.
 This Is a pretty tough proposition to put up to a man." he said, and ev- erybody laughed and applauded. If you had not filled this house, if you had not had the glad hand for me, could have made it all right"
 No harsh words did he deal out to any of the candidates on any of the tickets, merely saying they were pup pets dancing on the strings pulled by the bosses. But he did not spare the man he called ''the grocery Gaan of Newburg~ or the other, ~the bartender of Good Ground
 He showed much feeling when he told of the death of Armitage Mathews on the morning that he was to have appeared for trial. He spoke of Mathews as that poor ladr and said he was murdered as much as if he had been killed by a blow from the po- litieal outcasts who were responsible for bis downfall.

 PITTSBURG, Oct. 19.-After an in- vestigation of the books of the Enter prise National bank of Beaver avenue, Allegheny, which disclosed that the bank was insolvent, T. Lee Clark, cashier of the institution for years, went to his home, 545 Lincoln avenue, Bellevue, spent a sleepless, nervous night, in the morning took poison and then shot himself through the head. He fingered until 2:30 p. m., when death came.
 An hour before the announcement of bis death was received at the bank a telegram came from the comptroller of the currency at Washington to close the doors and appointing Bank Ex- aminer John B. Cunningham as re- ceiver. ...
 Following closely on the order of ex- citing events in lower Allegheny came the announcement of the president of the bank, Fred Gwinner, that Clark had loaned thousands of dollars to Pennsylvania politicians. that he him. self had indorsed note for $50,000 for Clark. concluding with the statement that if the shortage was only $100,000 he would gladly pay it himself"
 Frederick Gwfnner, president of the bank, said:
 Tt has been brought out that Mir. Clark loaned more than S400,OO0 to former State Senator William H. An drews. This money is part of the state deposits in our bank. Other loans have been made that show con clusively that Clark was involved deeply with politicians. This was un- known to me. Francis J. Terrence borrowed some money. How much I cannot say" ha S1
 The bank has state deposits which will amount to about $500, ,000, of which $396, 900 is in the checking or active account and the rest in state sinking funds.
 Mir. Gwinner in his statment said: Nearly $700,0O0 of the $s0O.000 state deposits of our bank is out on paper of state politicians. W. H. Andrews has borrowed nearly S400,0o0 and Frank J. Torrance has borrowed considerable. do not know how much. But the bank, I state, Is solvent"

This appears to be a time when gas companies while reducing the price of gas per 1000 feet make poorer gas and increase the pressure, so that while we pay less per foot our gas bills are increased and the light is less satis- factory. To get the best of this one sided arrangement we are practically compelled to use Gas Mantles, which, while not increasing the consumption of gas, increases to a wonderful de- gree it's Illuminating power. Mantles, of course, cost money, but with req sonable care they are exceedingly dur able. We personally have had them last for IS months, and how much long CT they would have lasted had they not been broken by accident we cannot say, but we do know Of cases where the same mantle has served for 2 years.

SAYS GERMS THRIVE
IN PUBLIC PLACES
UNcLEAN CARS AS A TU5ERcu
LoslS SOURCE.
Warning Read Before the Nationa
Association at Washington For
Its Prevention.

Washington, May 19.-Dr. H. M
Bracket of st. Paul, professor OF Ma
terra medica and therapeutics, univer-
sity in Minnesota, secretary and exec
utive officers OF the Minnesota board
of health, declared today before the
delegates to the national association
for the study and prevention of tuber-
culosis, that unclean steam and street
cars and steamer berths may be a
great source of tuberculosis infection
"If tubercular patients deposit in
fected sputum in public conveyances,
and it is allowed to become dry 1t may
then be a source or danger.
"The greatest danger from lack of
cleanliness is undoubtedly to be found
in the sleeping cars and steamer
berths where one may be in contact
with infected bedding an entire night.
The danger of tubercuIar Infection
during travel may be intensified by
the lack of proper ventilation for
when an individual Is confined for
close, stuffy quarters, the irritation
of the respiratory tract may be suf-
ficient to increase his susceptibility
or another infected individual may
have an inflammatory condition of the
lungs intensified by foul air draughts,
thus changing latent to an active In
fection. Admitting that tubercular in
fection is not apt to occur during any
single trip in a day coach. we must
still appreciate the fact that exposure
in such coaches is possible for many
people spend a considerable amount
of time each day in city and suburban
cars on their way to and from bust,
ness
at think 1t can safely be said that
as rule street railway companies are
not giving sufficient attention to car
cleaning or car ventilation. There is
not the same excuse for this condition
with the corporations that there is
with the railway companies. Tho
city sanitary officials have the street
railway companies under their juris
diction and sanitary regulations
MOULD be in force. and enforced"

CANAL PURCHASES
TO Be CONSIDERED
AT THE NEXT ASSEMBLY OF CON
GRESs.

Washington, d. c., May 19.-It is the
belief in high official circles that when
congress re-assembles it will at once
take hold of the subject of restrictive
legislation for the purchase OF 18TH
mian canal purchases.
1t is in accordance with this belief
that Secretary of War Taft announced
today that the purchase of two foreign
ships for the canal carrying trade
would be delaye. and that only such
material for canal construction would
be purchased abroad at this time as
was absolutely essential. The presi-
dent has received much advice from
party leaders, since the decree on the
isthmian canal commission was an
nounced
Speaker Cannon, Congressman Dal-
Zell of Pennsylvania, Grosvenor OF
Ohio and Senators Elkins. West Vir-
ginia Cullom, Illinois; Foraker Ohio;
| Oolliver Iowa; Kean, New Jersey and
others have suggested that delay in
enforcing the decision might be well
Republican leaders here are down
cast while Democrats are elated. The
| subject was again discussed at the cab
| met meeting. II was decided that
while there would be no change in pol
icy, there would be continued stocking

PLANS ARE BEGUN
FOR PENSION FUND
TO BENEFIT LOCAL POLICE DE
PARTMENT.
Temporary Organization Effected Last
Night and Adoption of the Re-
port Is Expected.

To secure means whereby they will
be able to institute pension fund for
themselves, the members of the local
police department met last evening
before the night turn at police head
quarters.
A temporary organization was made,
Lieutenant Wielandt being chairman
and James Smith secretary. Sugges-
tions were made by officers and the
plan, which will probably be recon-
mended by the committee and adopted
by the department at the next meet
ing to be held within a week, is that
a nominal sum be paid for holding
and thereafter weekly or monthly
payments as the case may be. The
committee appointed to decide on the
best plan are: James Smith, James
Battin and Captain Patterson.
Several times has the department
sought to have legislative action taken
to establish a pension fund but the
idea has fallen short, both before the
toard of safety and the council.
Death or becoming incapacitated for
duty as the matter now stands leaves
an officer or his family without pecun-
iary recourse and it Is for this reason
that the officers have taken 1t upon
themselves to fraternize for rainy
dayS

TOC0'S PLANS
To Fight Baltic Fleet
Are in Hands of
Spies.
{ AUSES A SENSATION

st. Petersburg, May 20.-The wide
circulation of report that the gov
ornment spies have ascertained Jap
anese Admiral Togo's plan for an
tagonizing Admiral Rojestvensky's
Baltic feet, has created a sensation
here.
According to the spies stories Ad-
Diral Togo will not at the present
risk an open fight with the Russians.
His plan to be placed in operation,
will be to send down upon the Rus

tramp junks. The obsolete boats will
approach the Russians and when it Is
possible at night. They will carry no
lights and the Russians will have 90
eXpend quantities of ammunition on
them to destroy them as they will
Lave one or two torpedoes which
they will explode against a Russian
warship If the opportunity arrives.
Not only, so the story goes, does the
Japanese commander hope to be able
TO sink a few Russians and cause his
enemies to waste much powder and
shell but he believes that persistent
night attacks will work havoc with
! the nerves of the Russian officers and
make them unfit for satisfactory duty
when the two forces in the end attack
one another.

member of the Russian embassy at

Russian diplomatic offices in all Euro
