ideal Yum Yum and it was pleasure
to again hear her clearsoprano voice.
The role of Katisha is perhaps the
most exacting one in the opera, de-
manding dramatic ability to make it
a success. For this important char
acter the management was fortunate
in securing the services of Miss Tia
Niles of Morrisville and the choice
was an exceedingly happy one. Her
song, Hearts Do Not Break" was
one of the gems of the evening. In
her dance with Ko-Ko she made
another hit"

RAILWAY RATE POLICY
THE SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS SAY
THERE WILL BE CAUCUSEs.

Incoming southern democrats in Congress
cuses in the House and Senate to agree
upon a line of policy with regard to rsn-
way rate legislation. There is division Of
opinion among the democrats upon this
question. Some of tne,n think that 1t
would Re Good politics to not only agree
v7.th the President. but to go even further
and mold the republicans responsible for
possible failure.
This view is entertained by those who
are skeptical of any real effective IegisIa-
ton on the subject and who think that the
ultra conservative faction of the repubn-
cans will prevail and prevent anything ex-
cept very mild bill from passing, They
say the democrats should push the repubU-
cans to radical extremes, both on tariff re-
vision ana railway rates. and benefit If the
republicans fail to go far enough.
Leader John Sharp Williams. In tba
House; Senator Culberson of Texas. Senator
Bacon of Georgia and number or others
take the position that railway rate legisla-
the republicans advocate 1t, but that In
fact 1t Is democratic policy
A faction following Senator Morgan of
Alabama Will hold that federal supervision
OF the states and that 1t would be demo-
cratic policy to oppose 1t, as a step In the
direction of Capitalization of power which
the democracy has always fought
This view. the politicians say, might be
all right In the south, but will not weigh
heavily with the democrats of the middle
states and the east, who, 1t is claimed will
be more likely to be attracted by the poIit-
icai possibilities of the game than by alb
struse craftsmanship
The question will be fought out in eau
cuses early in the coming session. The
democrats are in high feather over the
probabilities of carrying the House of Rep
resentatives In the elections of next year,
and some of the big men of the party In
the House and Senate intend to devote
every effort TO concerted action between
zeal questions. Put the republicans in the
hole" will be the slogan.

GOTHAM'S HORSE SHOW
THIRD DAYS EXHIBITION MARK
ED BY PRINCIPAL CONTESTS.

NEW YORK, November 15.-The horse
show today began it's third days exhibition
with the contest for leading honors among
the exhibitors already narrowed down to a
few prominent members of society and win
ners of former years.
Today. in place Of the interest In fash
ionable gowns and prominent persons which
predominated during the opening days of
the show, there was excitement over the
appearance of each entry, and shouts of ap-
plause filed the immense amphitheater
whenever one Of the leaders sent prancing
horse into the tanbark arena.
Five exhibitors led in the race today.
They were Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, Reg
inald Vanderbilt Mrs. John Gerken, e. D.
Jordan of Boston and William II. Moore of
Chicago.
The contest between the two vanderbilts
was in the nature Of a friendly duel each
attempting to Guido the other. regardless of
their ranking alongside OF other exhibitors
Mrs. John Gerken, usually driving her own
entries was not only a favorite with the audi
ence, but the courtesies which the men
drivers in the arena offered her became one
of the most pleasing features of the show.
These courtesies frequently called for a
splendid display Of horsemanshfp by the
drivers. E. D. Jordan Of Boston, who won
the largest number of ribbons last year, sent
his entries upon the elliptical track almost
every hour, and, judged by his steady win
nings of the first two days, was formida
BILE competitor for first honors. He was
closely followed by a man from the west,
William H. Moore of Chicago.
The spectators realized that two sections
of the country We're competing In the en-
tries of these two men, and in the great
gathering of society in the boxes about the
arena there were partisans of both con-
testants.
Opening of the Boston Dog Show.
BOSTON, November 15.-Four hundred
and fifty entries, the largest number on
record for any one breed of dogs at any
show marked the opening of the annual
four days exhibition of the Boston Terrier
Club The exhibition was notable also be-
cause ten of the fifteen Boston terrier

ton, three of them being owned in Massa-
chusetts. They include Selwonk Beauty,
oarsman and Lady Dainty, all owned by
Byron w. Robertson of New York; Last

CORDOvA'S HOPE.


Special to ''The Jersey City News,''l
NEW BRUNSWICK, May s. 1905
J. Frank Cordova, who while pastor Of
the South River Methodist Episcopal
Church ran away with Miss Julia Bovine,
one Of his choir girls. expects to be short
" released from the State prison at
Trenton, where he is now confined.
The ex-minister's counsel, II. =. Cook.
states that he intends to apply in a few
days FOR writ of habeas corpus. pray
ing that cordova be released on the
ground that his commitment was Illegal
Mr.. Cooks contention is that imme-
diately after his client was convicted
and sentenced by Judge Strong to four
years on two counts he applied for a
writ of error. That writ. according to
law, served as a stay until it was ar
gued before the next term of the su-
preme Court. This viii be in june
As the writ was not dismissed by any
court, MIR. Cook holds that Cordova' s
removal from the county jail to State
prison was Illegal.
