HEARST SUED BY Az Architect
The summons and Complaint served on
Him In Buffalo.

BUFFALO. Nov. Hugh Sloan, a process
server. served papers on William r Hearst
Tuesday night in a suit brought by Edward
Won Leistner against Mr. Hearst for archi-
tectural work on a proposed New York
building. The service was made during
the reception at the Hotel Lafayette, after
MI. Sloan had made several unsuccessful
attempts to reach Mr. Hearst at some of
the meetings. National Committeeman
Norman f. Mack was beside Mr.. Hearst
when Mr.. Sloan came Town the line.
Mr.. Hearst" said Mr.. Mack, ~let me in
troduce an old friend of mine, Hugh Sloan
In an instant the server had placed the
and complaint in Mr.. Hearst's
hands and whispered to him to say nothing,
but place them in his pocket. Mr.. Hearst
did so.
Mr.. Won Leistner says I'm the early
part Of 1908 Mr.. Hearst contemplated build
ing an immense structure in which to house
his newspapers and to carry on his political
work, which structure could also be used
as a general Office building, at Fifty-elghth
street and Broadway. Mr.. Hearst ordered
me to draw a perspective design for a build
ing. entered upon the work and drew
several designs, which were delivered to
Mr.. Hea st. After a month or so l endeav-
Ored to see Mr, Hearst ana ma ont WnaJ ne
desired to do in regard to his plans, but |
was unsuccessful. ! was referred from
one man to another. private secretaries
and editors, until | was obliged TO leave
New York city and go to Washington to
carry out some professional engagements.
While in Washington | placed the matter
in the hands of my attorneys, Locke h
Fulton, TO see if they could not procure
some answer to my inquiries. Mr.. Hearst
was at that time supposed TO be attending
to his official duties az Congressman. In
Washington repeated efforts were made
to see Mr.. Hearst, but he lodged all at
tempts to obtain a definite answer as to
what he intended to do in regard to these
plans. All attempts made by the Wash
. ington attorneys TO obtain an interview
with Mr.. Hearst were futile, as they found
that he was rarely in Washington during
the session of Congress and that when
he did appear no one could secure an inter-
view with him unless numerous private
secretaries had first ascertained what the
business was.
II sent Mr.. Hearst a registered letter
and a telegram asking for a decision in the
matter, but Mr.. Hearst ignored them en-
tirely. After keeping these plans for two
years and depTiving me OF the use OF these
dra wings, Mr.. Hearst returned them by
express without a word or without excuse
for having kept them as he had"

under the charge Of government. l have
had il deeply brought to my mind in the
course Of the last year, n anything that
] can do to make ali these association,
old line, f%raternal, mutual benefit or what
ever they may he. really conducive to the
interests Of the people. and to secure all
the p~olicyholders and the contract holders
and the members the full benefits OF their
thrift and their savings by making these
institutions still more prosperous in the
future than they have been in the past, will
be my object and purpose" .
Mr.. Hughes got a warm reception at all
the placer which he visited in the afternoon.
At Hamilton, where he spoke for twenty
minutes, the students cheered him to the
echo. He said, among other things:
The day Of bosses ia over. The day OF
dictation on the part of those who would
assume for selfish purposes to control
the political interests Of various commun-
ties, il over. The people Of this State
and of other States are determined that
they will have tue political liberty. They
wan their representatives to recognize
their direct responsibility TO the people.
They do not want servitude, but service,
straight. honorable conscientious service
They may disagree with their representa-
tive on this or on that measure, but they
want a report Of conduct according to ones
oath Of office and in the light Of his own
manhood, according to his conscience.
Mr.. Hughes, in all Of his afternoon
speeches. expressed confidence in the favor-
able outcome of the election. He said at
Hamilton:
at has been an arduous campaign, but
everywhere that We have gone through
the State we AVE had evidences Of earnest
feeling, and | am confident that If Ell OFT is
not relaxed and il the intelligence Of the
State expresses itself there will be a lesson
taught to those who would substitute pas
sionfor sober argument in the discussion OF
D~olitical questions"

High Contracting Parties.


High Contracting Parties.
The Democratic State ca~mpaigners at
the Victoria Hotel last night, from Chair
man William j. Corners down, were greatly
disturbed by the attitude of Mr.. Croker
Mr.. Corners did not care 20 say anything
about Mr.. Cookers message to Senator
McCarren, and when it was learned that
Mr. Murphy himself did not care TO answer
Mr. Croker, but had deputed John 1. Oakley
to speak for him, there wa general chagrln.
A particularly interesting bit Of news
was whispered beneath the breath OF the
few at Democratic State headquarters
in the Victoria Hotel last night. 1t was
to the effect that Mr.. Hearst had botched
his own campaign by attacking about
every prominent Democrat in the country
as well as about every prominent ltepub-
lican. One of those at the headquarters
said
Il have been told that men in public life
now regard Mr.. Hearst's attacks upon
them with absolute Indifference. Others
consider it quite a compliment to be abused
by Mr.. Hearst. IL gives them "A standing
which thew had not hitherto had. But
as a general rule nobody cares.
Mr.. Murphy's friends and Mr.. Corners :

tiOnaI Committeeman ward Puts state
Plurality al B7S,ONO at Least.
The Republican State c~ampsigners were
joyful yesterday. The headquarters were
thronged with elbowing and io%stling Re-
publicans from all over the State. They
gave in their reports. They had talks with
Chairman Woodruff and they were the most
confident campaigners hat one would care
tn meet. National Committeeman William
l.. Ward Of Westchester, follow ing William
Barnes, Jr., of Albany, said yesterday at
headquarters:
Hughes will be elected by a majo rity
of at least l75 900 in the whole State. 1
should not be AT all surprised if his majority
was more than $50 900. l am not talking
by guesswork, but as a result of "A careful
study of the reports from all sections Of
the State. Great Republican gains are
Indicated everywhere"
Chairman Woodruff said that he had had
a talk with Col. Michael j.. Dady of Brooklyn,
and that Col. Dady had assured him that
Kings, Queens. Suffolk and Nassau counties
combined would give Mr.. Hughes a plurality
OF between 10000 and 90 600; and George w.
Aldridge, Republican leader of Monroe
county, sent ord that the county which
gave Gov. Higgins a plurality of 5000 in
1904 and Theodore Roosevelt a plurality of
5000 in the same year would give Mr..
Hughes a plurality in excess of ~, 600.
Jacob Bremen. chairman of the Kings
County Republican committee, had a long
ak with Chairman Woodruff, and later
predicted that MIR. Hughes would carry
Kings county by at least 10000.
9Th prospects for a tremendous Repub-
lican plurality in Kings county are splendid"
continued Mr.. Brenner. A careful can
vass shows that Mr.. Hughes will receive
about ~ per cent. of the vote that Mr..
Hearst polled in Kings county last year and
about 80 per cent. of the vote that went
TO Mayor Mcclellan. Detection from the
Republican ranks in Kings is almost iniini
tesimal. We will carry every Assem- bly,
district. The campaign in Kings is rather
a tame one this year, because of the fact
that there are not at this time two rival
organizations opposing each other. The
Independence Leagues organization Is
hardly worthy of the name, because II is
SO largely a paper one. Mr.. Hearst comes
and goes, and when he is away from Brook
lyn there is no one left there TO continue
the fight very vigorously for him"
