CITY FERRY CAUSES
HORSES TO DROWN.
FerrybOat D0cked and Then Began
to Drift Out Again As Team
Drove of.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE munic-
ipal ferryboat Brooklyn, with only 9
few hundred passengers aboard, ar
rived from Staten island at her sir
at the foot of Whitehall street at
Las O'Clock Yesterday afternoon and
was apparently made fast. Nearly
all the passengers we're off when
something gave way, and. under the
suction of d tide rushing along the
outer end of the Slip She began TO
back out. It was said that one Of
the hawsers holding the Brooklyn 10
the bridge had parted.
All the ferry officials, including the
bridge men, declined TO give any in
formation on the subject. Supt. Pol
lock vas reported as saying that he
did NOT think the newspapers had
any right to know anything about
the matter and that it would be in
veStigated.
What happened after the some
thing gave way was this: A team of
big gray horses drawing a truck be-
longing to Mckenzie & Son of Temp
kinsyille, and driven by John Boeh-
mer, started off the boat just as she
began TO, drift out from the bridge.
An elderly woman was among a very
few passengers who had not gone off
in the general rush for shore.
She was about to make a leap over
the gap between the boat and the
bridge when a deck hand grabbed
her and drew her back. Capt. King,
the pilot, had the engines started up
and rammed the boat back into her
slip. The horses were on the bridge
and the forewheels of the truck drop
ped into the gap and were crushed
by the guard of the boat. The boat
rebounded, and the horses were drag
ged back and fell into the river.
Deckhands and a few men passengers
aboard the Brooklyn dragged the
wrecked truck back on the Brook
lyn's deck. The pole of the truck
was broken and went down with the
horses. They struggled onlJ a few
minutes in the Slip, and then disap-
peared.

FOR WORKOUT HORSES.
New York Man Has Compassion on
Fire Horses and Provides
a Home.

If there is any one class of horses
deserving OF special care and consider
alton above any other. ii is surely the
faithful animals who serve the public
in the fire department of cur big
cities. 1t is gratifying to record the
fact that a true lover of dumb animals
has risen up in the person of Nicholas
+. Brady, one of the youngest of Wall
streets successful men, who proposes
to see that those worthy old veterans
OF the fire wagons are hereafter treat
ed according to their just deserts.
Mr.. Brady will buy. at his w eN-
pense, and pension off for life all the
horses discarded by the New York de-
partment, and under his protection
they viii spend their declining DAYS
On a big farm up country where
rich pasturage in summer and warm
shelter in the inclement season will
never be lacking. Surely, a nollsrl
act Of charity than this il would be
difficult to conceive

SUICIDE OF DEPUTY MARSHAL.


NEWARK, Nov. Shooting him
self yesterday in the Post Office build
ing, Deputy United States Marshal
John j. Garside died in an ambulance
ifn the way TO ST. Barnabas' Hospital.
The sound of the shot was heard
throughout the 6uliding and caused
much excitement.
Three years ago Garside suffered
n stroke of apopleXy, and since then
he has been in poor health. Recent
~ his eyes became affected, and with
in the last few weeks he complained
frequently to friends that he feared
he soon would become blind. This
fear made him extremely respondent.
Yesterday morning Garside reached
the post Office about IL o'clock. To
a %janitor he said he was feeling i'll.
He went to his Office on the fourth
floor, took off his overcoat, coat and
waistcoat and opened his mail.
Shortly before noon he went TO an
other room. A moment later The re-
port of the revolver rang out.
Samuel Bowman ran to the place
and found Garside lying unconscious
with a bullet hole in his head. DR..
II. c. II. Herold, Collector of Internal
Revenue, did what he could and or
dered that an ambulance be called.
Garside was born here fifty-one
years ago. He lived in No. 1870 Gar
side street with his wife and son, DR..
Charles Heh Garside. For five years,
up to twelve years ago. he was SUI
perintendent of the Newark City Hos
pital. Then he was superintendent
Of the almshouse for two years. In
1897 he was appointed Deputy Uni
ted States Marshal.

WHOLESALE
CHALLENGES.
Continued from page -

The conservatives by about $500.
The undenied efforts being made by
The machine to knife" Pagan have
served, say those who are familiar
with the situation. to rally indepen-
dent voters to his support.
1t is only u question of majority
for Everett Colby for senator in Els
sex. Ten and fifteen thousand are
talked of. Everybody comedies that
il win be immense. 1t is not a fight
between republicans and democrats
either in Jersey City or Essex. 1t is
q fight against boss and machine rule
and for the right of popular self-gov-
eminent.
The machine politicians are not
enthusiastic for the ticket in either
place. 1t is freely charged that they
would like to secretly work it's defeat
but are held in some check by the
fear of public opinion. They find it
difficult. it is said, to do effective
work in the dark. The people are
aroused, and a great and sweeping
victory for the boss fighters is pre-
dicted.
The republicans will most likely
carry the legislature. The contests
with the machine did not enter very
largely into the election of many of
the legislature candidates.
The fight against machine rule in
Ocean county is almost as hot as in
Essex. All attempts to placate or
pull off the independents have failed.
Captain George Warren, it is predict
cd at Toms River, will sweep the
county, and the rest of the union
ticket is pretty safe to win.
In Mercer county Hoff, democrat,
will probably be elected sheriff, and
the democratic leaders claim with
confidence that Robert Meiser will be
elected mayor Of Trenton.
In Camden there is a big fight
against the republicans machine tick
CT, and the spirit Of revolt is rampant
in several other counties.
The fight against G. Asa Francis,
the republican candidate for sheriff
in Monmouth county, has grown in
intensity. The general opinion is that
Mr.. Close, the democratic candidate,
will defeat him.
In Somerset there seems to be an
even chance of Senator Childs. DEM
ocrat, who has been renominated,
winning over Frelinghuyscn, repub-
lican.
The opposition to the poor free
holder ticket in Passaic county has
not abated, and most well informed
politicians predict the election OF the
lent. representative men.

so long as t1e end is not reached by a
yeute too circuitous or too costly.
There are arguments in favor of both
methods, and also against both Contract
work suggests greater speed and at the
same time greater chance for skimping for
the sake of profits and haste Government
work. on the other hand. makes usually for
better quality but longer time consump-
lion. That has been the experience Of the
government in certain lines of its enter
prise Of providing public equipment, such
as buildings. But in point of the con-
Struction OF warships there is nothing to
he alleged against the efficiency Of the
privately owned shipyards, while those es-
adjustments have certainly beaten the
government IN almost all instances where

The canal must be well constructed 1t

work are given over to private contractors

probably profit by the contract plan. II

self, the profits of the contractors may be
regarded as representing a premium for
the probably faster work. But there Is a
reasonable limit to the price to be paid for
speed and in the last consideration OF the
matter the canal commission and the
President will of course consider whether
the time gained will be worth whatever the
contractors may take out of the job in the
form of profits
BY the contract method IL Is likely that
the government can maintain larger area
OF activity at one time than though it were
prosecuting the work itself. 1t will be
relieved to a large extent of the problem of
securing labor. Its task will be In other
ways materially simplihed although it's
responsibility will remain heavy.

Much Lost, Little Gained.

Defenders of the Presidents summary
dismissal order can find no stronger argu-
ment than that this innovation is necessary
in order to strengthen the power Of dis
charge which should be vested in every de-
partmental chief. Wherein does this order
strengthen the discharge power? By per-
hitting swifter judgment and execution.
Wherein was the public service injured in
the past by the lack of this power of sum
mary dismissal?
This latter is a difficult question to an
swer unless those who advocate the In
slant punishment plan are willing to con-
cede that there has been gross inefficiency
and tolerance for misbehaviour in the past
on the part of the higher officials of the
service. Under the former rule a clerk who
deserved dismissal was cited for his mis-
conduct and required to show cause why
he should not be dismissed. He had few
days in which to prepare and present his
defense. In that time he might possibly
have been somewhat of a handicap to the
public service by remaining on the rolls.
Being under suspicion, however. he could
not positively pollute the service. He could
do no radical wrong, unless there was stu
pid complaisance on the part of those above
him. He could be. he might now be,
Why this haste to get rid of a man who
may, after ALL be merely the victim of an
unfounded suspicion? In order to get an an
swer to this query 1t Is necessary merely to
go back to the fact alleged as the prime inspi-
ration for this summary dismissal order.

OBNOXIOUS language service f.
tendant. 1t is difficult to separate the cause
and the effect. The public is prone to Won
der why the department clerks should as
an entire body be classed with an impudent
driver who perhaps merited SUMMARY pun
ishment but whose case is in no degree
parallel with those of the scores of men
who must annually, in the course of events,
fall under the ban of this extraordinary or
der of procedure.
1t appears that this order was issued to
enable the heads of departments to act
swiftly whenever fragrant cases of insubor-
dination or misconduct came under their
personal observation. That is surely very
slight chance to serve as the basis OF such
a very broad order, completely upsettlng
one of the fundamental principles of civil
service reform. And even secretary may
be mistaken in his instant judgments He
may not quite accurately see or hear. He
might possibly be unjust in his conclusions.
1t is entirely conceivable that he might be
disposed, upon mature reflection, and after
ascertaining the accused's side of the case.
to let him go unpunshed, perhaps with
warning.

fair. To gain very little end the Presi-
dents order upsets system of defense

Simpson.

The rare good fortune was vouchsafea
Jerry Simpson to read his own obituaries.
Reports of his condition weeks ago gave
him but n few hours to live. and these
produced Immediately many appreciations
In print of his personality and public sery-
ices. Many were very hearty, and he IL
said to have read all OF them with great
pleasure. He went then knowing that he
had played his part in the main very well
and was leaving a fragrant memory He
was in no sense a quack, but only a
philosopher who played the game in a
human way. and, knowing his own Iimita-
tions, guessed rather shrewdly at other
peoples. 1t was among the humors of
populism that this clever skipper from the
great lakes should set up to help steer the
great ship OF state. And he enjoyed the
transformation from skipper to statesman
as much as anybody who observed it and
made merry over it in the newspapers.
