With factional troubles which have rent the party asundcr since 1896.
 wherein Mayor Mcclellan is now stronger as d Presidential nossibi!ity than he was last year, when abortive attempts were made by Tammany to swing the Cleveland strength for him does not appear His course as Mayor has run smoothly. There have been nc scandals of importance in his admin lstration, except those which attend the operation Of Tammany contracting con cerns organized for graft under every IamnanY administration. But If a Democratic Convention for the nomina- lion Of Governor were to be held today there would doubtless be very active and perhaps successful opposition. Ac- cldents of the present administration have, however, made Colonel McClel- lan's future lock much brighter than it did year ago
 Jealousy Over City Contracts.
 City opposition to Tammany Hall has ceased to be an organized opposition since Mayor Mcclellan was inducted into office. There is very wide spread or Jealousy between Tammany contrac- tors and business men over the monop- oily of city favors granted by the Mc- Clellan administration to Mir. Murphy and few of his closest friends, but the disaffected content themselves with growing, knowing that the present is not good time to apply the only pos sible remedy, namely, the defeat of Tammany Hall The Citizens Union, the organization which cast 150.000 in- dependent votes for Seth Low in 1897, and which. in conjunction with the Re- publicans, elected him Mayor in 1901, is moribund. The Republicans have been unable to work out a successful fusion with other anti-Tammany bodies. Col onel Mcclellan is opposed therefore only by the straight Republican or ganization, which cannot hope to cast more than one-third of the city's whole vote, and by w. R. Hearst, running Independently as the candidate of the Municipal Ownership League From the Republicans Mir. Mcclellan has lit- tie to fear. The only uncertainty which confrcnts him in his candidacy is the Hearst movement
 But little effort has been made by colonel Mcclellan and his colleagues in the Tammany Democracy to neutral party favorable to municipal owner ship. The Democratic platform con tains it's usual declaration in favor or municipal ownership. The mayor qualified the platform declaration of hls party somewhat by saying in his speech accepting renomination: "As Democrat l believe that that communi- " IS best governed which is least gov erned, and that where individual ef- fort and private enterprises has ac- complished the same result as govern ment' government has no right to in terfere.

ERGAR CARY CONVICTED.
Found Guilty of Attempting the Life
 of John KrOell.


 Columbiana, Oct. 21.-(Special )-The ybusiness of the third week of the Cir cuit Court was finished yesterday about noon, and Judge Pelham and Solicitor Burr left for their respective homes in Anniston and Talladega.
 The week has been exclusively de- voted to criminal business. Quite a number of cases were disposed of, and a large majority of the trials resulted in convictions.
 Edgar Cary, charged with assault with intent to murder John Kroell, was tried Thursday. The jury found him guilty. and the court sentenced him yesterday to two years in the peni- tentiary. It will be remembered that Frank and John Kroeil, brothers, were Indicted for the murder of Walter Cary, Esq. prominent lawyer of Monte valio and father of Edgar Cary.
 A short time subsequent to the kill ing of his father. Edgar Cary met John Kroeli. and fired on him as he Kroell rode by on his horse. There was no proof that Kroell did anything at the time to provoke the shooting.
 Frank Kroel1 was tried a year ago for the murder of Walter Cary, and was convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary for thirty-nine years His brother John Kroell will be tried next week. Great interest is manifested in these trials on account of the wealth and social standing of the parties in- volyed.
 Cards are out announcing the mar riage on next Wednesday night of MT. Henry Latham to Miss Mary Finley, both of this city.

and the difficulty in securing prompt

deliveries.
 The orders placed by the Pennsyl- vania this week for 21.500 cars. in ad- dition to the 16,16O ordered in August. made a new record In contracts placed by a single company, tad practically pre-empTs all steel car building fla cilities during the entire year of 1906. It is stated that all car manufacturers are crowded with orders and that the American Car and Foundry Company alone rave thrilled contracts aggregat- ing over 60,000 cars, while TO company can promise delivery before the middle of next year unless the order Is for few wooden cars. The greater num- ber of the cars ordered during the cur rent year are yet to be built and will keep ths car manufacturers busy un- til we'll into the second half of next year.
 From the detailed records kept by The Railway Age since 1901 of orders placed fGr new Cquipm ent the following totals are taken, the figures for 1905 covering the forty-one weeks up to the present:

Record BrenlxlnE Orders for Equipment.

 In its issue of October IS The Rail way Age recorded orders for 460 pas senger cars. S0,62O freight cars and S33 locomotives, and inquiries for addi- tional equipment amounting to SS pas senger cars, 17,06O freight cars and 35 locomotives. The contracts reported this week are even more surprising in many ways, and when taken in connec- ton with the large orders expected from the New York Central. Northern Pacific and other roads show that the high records of 1901 and 1902 for freight equipment and locomotives will easily be surpassed before the close of 1905. although the volume of orders in those years was exceptional, and not withstanding the present high prices

ns1Sevsa That Mosquitoes win Be Driven Into Heuses, and There They Will De S1aIn by
 Fumuagation.

Pensacola, Fla. Oct. 21.--(special.)-- Wintry weather greeted Pensacoians this morning. The thermometer con tlnued to fall during the night and at .. m. 1t had reached the 5S degree mark. This was aggravated by cola wind of high velocity blowing directly from the north. While there was not sign of frost. such visitation Is ex- pected tomorrow morning. and the av- craze Pensacolan is in his seventh heaven of delight at the prospect.
 Some days ago there was slight frost. but this did no more good. the physicians figured, than to chase the mosquitoes into the homes. At that time the health authorities were with out a great deal of funds, and the prosecution of fight on the mosquito could not be pursued, It is believed that the mosquitoes have been driven into the houses and that a strong fu- migation. at the present time will kill them. This morning every house with In 100 yards of fever case was listed and will be fumigated. It is stated with positiveness today that the chance for an early eradication of the fever is bright. and Dr. Porter. the State Health OA1cer, Is of the opinion that tho total number of cases will not go above 500. The record up to today is <ss. This leaves but forty-two to make up the half thousand. and 1t is hoped that the prediction of the health of1cer will prove true.

SECULAR LEAGUE WANTS
NO RELIGION IN SCHOOLS
Takes Decisive Action on Subject in
Resolution to Be Submitted to
School Board.

The Secular League Of Washington IN
strongly worded resolutions last night
declared its opposition to the teaching
Of religion in the public schools, com
mended the Jews and several Christian
denominations for the stand taken in
the matter and incidentally repudiated
the teachings of the Bible. The reso-
lutions win be presented to the Board
of Education at a meeting which will
be held tomorrow night. when COM
rnittee representing the Secular League
will be given a hearing in support of
the resolutions.
The meeting was conducted by David
Eccles and the principal address was
made by Gen. William iBirRey. who com
tended the Bible is an Oriental book,
unsuited to the present scientific age.
He also argued that the Bible is not
logical and demands people to believe
unreasonable things. The Bible, General
Birney said, imputes to God an unjust,
vindictive, and cruel nature, and teaches
both polygGIny and slavery.
Major Pechin argued that the teachinG
OF religion in the public schools would
cause dissention among the pupils.
Others who discussed the subject were
]. j. Shirley, ex-Gov. John w. Hoyt,
Mrs Mirilla Kicker, Mrs Mary A Price,
and Messrs. Bliss and Burr.
