 The comments of Richard Croker, former leader of Tammany Hall, upon the gubernatorial campaign in New York, and the speech of Secretary of State Elihu Root at Utica tonight, were the most interesting features of the days political developments.
 Mir, Croker, in an interview in Dub- lin, Ireland, to-day, took occasion to criticise severely the action of Charles F. Murphy, present leader of Tamnfany in bringing about the nomination of Mr. Hearst at Buffalo, and predicted that if MT. Hearst lis elected and car ries out his programme the effect would l be to paralyze capital and thereby par alyze labor" He characterized Charles F. Murphy's action at Buffalo as an astonishing and unprincipled perform ance," and asked if it would not be better for Tammany to be defeated | fighting for principle than to dishonor itself by outraging the principles of Jefferson" Mr. Croker confirmed the ! genuineness of the cablegram sent to F. Il. McCarren yesterday, concerning which Charles F. Murphy had express ed his doubts
 Greater New York was ablaze with political enthusiasm tonight. The re- publican followers held more than a hundred meetings in as many different places, and W. R. Hearst spoke to six teen different audiences between o'clock and midnight in Manhattan and

st. Johns, N. F., Nov. 1.-The action of the colonial government in enforcing fhe bait act with the object of nullify- ing the nodus vivendi between Great Britain and the United States in the matter of the Newfoundland fisheries awakens great interest here. The col onial cabinet justifies this position on the ground that the imperial govern ment, twenty years ago, sanctioned the enforcement of the bait act against French fishermen, and that therefore the act being now effective the modus viyendi cannot abridge it's operation.

Romeo and Juliet.

In presenting William Owen and his
Shakcsperean company in Romeo and
Juliet at the auditorium Tuesday, Nov.
l3, the Congregational club has conf.
dence in the demonstrated quality of
this attraction. Mr. Owen has won his
SPURS. For nine years he has been pro-
ducing the classic drama in the middle
west with a success that has made his
name stand for high endeavor and
worthy achievement. He has left his
work to speak for itself and has dis
dained those sensational efforts at adj
vertising to which so many theatrical
attractions resort. The result is that
his reputation rests upon solid found
alton. He has won acclaim in such parts
as Hamlet. Romeo, Shylock, Benedict,
Richelieu. Claude Melnotte in the
charming play Lady of Lyons, David
Garrick. d Artagnan in The Three
Musketeers, and many other classic
and romantic dramas. He has probably
played more of the great parts than any
other man of his age upon the stage.
The play selected by the Congrega-
tional club is Romeo and Juliet, the
greatest love poem ever written. II IS
believed in presenting it wider APP
peal will be made than in any other
drama Mr.. owen has appeared in, for
"all the world loves lover and
Romeo is the ideal lover. All that is
fascinating in the dawning of the af-
fections is found in this play Youth
sees itself reflected ideally and age lives
over again its youth, Its appeal is ire
