TO RETIRE FROM Politics.
II. II. Hunter Surrenders His Leadership
Of the Republican Party I'm Dutchess.

PoUGHKEEPsIE, Nov. To- One Of the
election surprises in Duchess county was
the announcement that Deputy State
Superintendent of Insurance Robert Fl
Hunter was TO retire from active participa-
ton in politics ard surrender the leadership
Of the Republican party in Duchess county
Mr.. Hunter has been prominent as a poll
tician for more than twenty years. He
is a lawyer by profession. Early in life
he became associated with party leaders of
the breadth and stature OF e. Plat Car
penter, John B. butcher. the late Gen.
John H. Ketchsm and louis F.. Payn.
Mr.. Hunter is a natural leader of men,
and his cleverness was recognized and re-
warded. He was made internal revenue
collector in this Federal district, served
as postmaster In Poughkeepsie under
feveral Republican Presidents and later
received his present post in the State In
surance Department. Success has usually
attended Mr.. Hunters efforts in be half Of
his party.
This year local conditions divided the
Republicans in Duchess county, and a
large vote was cast by the disaffected and
boiling branch for the Democratic county
and city ticket. which was elected by large
pluralities. The defeat was a severe one
and was only made possible by the general
ship OF Robert Winthrop ChAnlsr. who
headed the Democratic county ticket for
Sheriff and by his dash and enthusiasm
aroused the Democratic party from a NOR
ibund state and rolled up a plurality of
nearly 5000 for himself and carried his COM
panions on the county ticket into Office.
Lewis Styuvesant Chanler, Democratic
candidate for observation-disclosures. who
lives in Red Hook and is a Democrati0
Supervisor from that town, also carried
Dutchess county by a smaller plurality
than that accorded his brother. The
Chanlers carried their home town Of Red
Hook, Robert by over three hundred and
Lewis by about two hundred and fifty
Mr. Hunter has not need his ra8Eons
for retiring from politics. IL IL not char
acteristin for him 10 retire under fire lie
was ready 20 give up. IL IL said, at the time
the nominating conventions were hold
but was dissU aided on account Of the IF Get
IL might nave on the Republican chances.
The choice Of a leader 10 succeed Mr.. Hunter
has not been made. but Dutchess county
Republicans have several men In view
and II will not be long before the decision
10 known.

RiILROiD VAR N INDIANA.
Coal anime Results From Embargo De-
cIared Against The BiS -Four.

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. lO.-It became known
to-day that the Evansville and Ierre Haute
Railroad declared an embargo against the
Big -Four railway more han two weeks
ago and that since then il has not turned
over q single car of the Big -Four for de-
livery. As a result the manufacturing
cities and towns are suffering from a coal
famine and a general suspension Of industry
is pending.
The situation gives promise Of becoming
worse rather than better, as the Indiana
Southern is also about Ia declare an en-
barge against the Big Four. Ibis will be
lone the first Of the week unless the State
railroad commission or some other me-
dating body succeeds in bringing peace.
A. in recent contentious between the
railroads of the State the Big Four gets
the brunt Of the blame. II il declared by
both the EvansV lille and lerre Haute and
the Indiana Southern that the Big Four
is not only derelict and slow in making
deliV cries but it will not return cars after
they are emptied.
The embargo W 5 declared on October Is
and since then c oal that should have gone
to the cities and I owns Of Indiana has been
diverted TO other sections Of the country.

OUR WARSHIPS ALL RIGHT.
Admiral Rae Says No Defective Tubes Have
Gone Into Their Boilers. B

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-In connection
with the indictments in the alleged steel
tube frauds Rear Admiral Rae, chief Of
the bureau Of engineering. said to-day
that no defective tubes had gone into the
boilers Of American warships. He saws
that the various inspections. both by the
Government and the manufacturers of
the boilers. who purchased the tubes from
the tube manufacturing concern, guarded
against the placement OF defective tubes.
PITrsBURa, Nov. l0.-Frank L. Emmett,
whose statements led to the investigation
into the sale Of defective boiler tubes to the
United States Government by the Shelby
Steel Tube Company and who was indicted
yesterday 10y the Federal Grand Jury for
conspiracy to defraud, appeared in court
to-day and was released on his own recog-
nizance for trial.
Arrangements have been made whereby
James j. Dunn and Charles l.. Close, the
other men similarly indicted, will appear
in court Monday. but heavy bail will be
eXacted OF them for their appearance in
court. In case Dunn and Close do not
appear United States Marshal 3. +. Stone

ton, said to-day that Emmett would net be

promises Of immunity have been made TO
him. However. Mr.. Dunl le says that moth
ing was promised until after he had testi-
fled before the Grand Jury.
The Investigation of the Grand Jury

Chairman Corners Of the Democratic
State committee will wait, he said yesterday
until after the Official cInvoss is mlde
before appointing the committee OF seven
10 Investigate" the charges Of irregularity
made against Senltor McCarren al the
meeting of the State committee on Friday
Mr.. Conners added that he had a. yet not
begun to think about the possible makeup
Of the subcommittee. As ChIrles F.
Murphy vent to Good Ground yesterday
to stay until Tuesday or Wednesday. it
will probably be late in the week before
Mr.. Corners the makeup Of the
committee.
1t il safe TO predict that the committee
will recommend the expulsion OF Mr.. Nc
Carren and his fellow committeeman from
Kings. 1t ia part Of the plan Mr.. Murphy
and Mr.. Conners decided on at those nightly
conferences at the Waldorf-Astoria to get
control OF the st lte organization. But
as Mr.. McCarren has alrel dy indicated,
they will have a stiff fight on their hands,
and Mr.. McCarren has been advised that
he will rave a good case for the courts.
for the relson that the committee has not
thepower to expel a member. The friends
of Mr.. McCarren contend that as the State
convention selects the State committee
members Of that body have a right 10 their
seats until the next State convention. AL
though It ia true that Henry d. Purroy was
exI elled some years ago il il the opinion
of Mr.. McCarren's friends that Mr.. PuTroy
would nave been reseated had he taken The
case to the courts.
Most of the Democratic Assembly district
leaders in Brooklyn called yesterday at
the Court Square headquarters and told
Senator McCarren they were with him
Senator McCarren had this 10 say:
-In my opinion the State committee has
no authority to expel it's members. The
State committee is the creature Of the State
convention"
IF the committee tries TO expel you will
you fight in the oourts?' Il certainly will,
he replied.
What do you think the State committee
will do?"
Il think il will do the most SHINE thing
il can think of. As il il at present consti-
tuted ! think il is a good at that the Murphy
Corners crowd will continue, individually
and collectively, TO make damn fools of
themselves"
Warden Patrick Hayes, John II. Delany
and the other anti-McCarren managers
who organized the new Kings County
Democratic party, to take the place of the
old regular body, were confident that the
State committee would expel McCarren.

Secretary Taft, but il he did not they ex-
pected him to do so after the expiration
of his term of office. There has been some
talk to the effect hat the President might

Comptroller Metz il holding up bills
amounting to about SIS 900 which have been

Police Commissioner McAdoo's vice squad
The contingent fund which Mr.. McAdoo
had TO pay such bills was exhausted early
in his last year Of Office. but the vice squad
was instructed 10 go ahead just the same.
The bills are similar 10 those made public

a disorderly house in West Sixty-fourth
street. Among the items on the hill are:

left that particular part of the city unpro-
tected TO some extent in case of a real fire.
Lantry thought the police should lie able
to stop the nuisance, and Gen. Bling ham

the Police Commissioner had word sent

policemen on post would be held responsible
for any false alarms in which the offender
