 In one of his addresses he said:
 q have been ordered to the front in this campaign and have responded to what l believe to be call of duty. The Union must ever be preserved.
 Tt is not call to arms, but it Is a tetll LO lillllh, IL lS eb bOAAAtNAAN NEOAA AAA telligence it is a demand for a sober consideration of public questions. The issue in this campaign is simply whether the good sense of the people of this state shah triumph,
 It is a shame to find an effort, an eff fort organized, an effort which some think may possibly be conducted sue cessfully, to make the people of this country think that all business life is base, that all those who are in control of great enterprises are plunderers and bandits, that there is no wholesomenests in American life l tell you it is false.
 MT. Hughes also declared he was still awaiting for his opponent to answer his question aus to whether the Hearst newspaper corporations are good citi- zens and pay their taxes. "@ He further declared that while he believed in economy he would see to it( if elected governor, that no law on the statute books should lack of enforcement for want of man or dollar to enforce it.

HEARST IN ALBANY.
One of the Best Welcomes During Up-
 State Trips.

Albany, N r., Oct. 26.-Nowhere in his several upstate campaign trips has William R. Hearst, democratic and independence candidate for governor, had a more enthusiastic welcome than that which he received here tonight.
 What might have been a tragedy oc- cured just before MT, Hearst arrived at Troy in the collapse of a temporary platform in front of the theatre with quite @ crowd of people. So far as is known no one was seriously hurt, Af- ter the Troy meeting MT, Hearst went to C5hoes, returning thence to Albany. He will return to New York late to- night
 q feel confident" said Mir, Hearst at Albany, that two-thirds of the people of Greater New York are in favor of this movement to wrest the control of government from the trusts and the great public service corporations which now control it in their own interests, and restore it to the hands of the peo- pie to be conducted for the greatest good of the greatest number. 1.-The question merely Is whether two-t thirds of the people of New York will be able to accomplish anything against the great aggregations of capi- tai which control not only the machine " of parties, but the machinery of government gn nearly every depart ment. The men who have been put into office and who hold the power ot office were put there by the trusts and stand ready to serve the trusts to the last desperate extremity.
 q think the election in Greater New York this year will be won by from 150,OOO to 25O,o0o if the people are not by some treachery deprived of their right: as citizens.
 q believe that the majority will be somewhere about the majority in the whole state as l do not think the re- publican party will be able to bear its load of popular condemnation and stagger to the Harlem river with any majority at all.
 q warned the people last year that immense sums would be used to defeat them; that the great trusts and corpo- i rations would go to any length to de- ! feat them.
 Tonight I solemnly warn the people of this state that even more desperate measures will be taken by the corrupt corporations at this election.

 Headquarters in Summer Home.
 Greenwich, Oct. 26.-Through the find- ing by Dr. l.. F. Jones of a nine-year- old boy, said to have been at the time very much under the influence of liquor, near Rock Ridge, and which the doctor reported to the police, the authorities have discovered that a party of small boys have been using the summer home of c. B. Reed, a wealthy New York publisher, as their quarters and have been making themselves thoroughly at home there, to the detriment, it is claimed, of the house and Its furnish ings. Dr. Jones says he took the lad to his office and revived him. The boy was then placed under arrest. His name is Frank Martin, nine years old. Another boy, Albert Holland, ten years old, was later arrested. When ques- toned by the police the boys, it is said accused almost every other small boy in town of belonging to the band. The authorities say that to all appearances the band of boys have been occupying the place for some time and have done damage estimated at between $1, 1,5O0 and $2,OO0 A rigid investigation is being made.

RAILROAD MEN IN BIG MOVE
HIGHER WAGES AND BETTER
 WORKING CONDITIONS

Wanted for All Classes of Trainmen-
 Official Announcement at Headquar-
 ters of the Brotherhood of Engineers
 cerned With Other Eastern Systems.
 Cleveland, Oct 26.-The Plain Dealer tomorrow will say: Tt was officially announced at the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in this city yesterday that requests had just been made, not only to the lines west of Chicago, but also to a number of the big eastern systems for higher wages and better working conditions for all classes of trainmen It was said that similar requests would probably be made by that brotherhood to every oth- CT railroad in the United States between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts.
 Among the railroads east of Chicago to which the Brotherhood of Locomo- tive Engineers has presented requests are the New York Central Delaware, LackawanAa and Western, Erie Nick el Plate, and New York, New Haven and Hartford.
 The requests made by the engineers include a revised and higher wage scale for all the men in all classes of the service, passenger, freight and yard engines, and beetter working con- ditions looking toward shorter hours for days work. On a number of the western roads the engineers have re- quested that scientific tests for deter mining the condition of their vision be abolished and that field or practical tests be established instead.
 Although the requests made by the engineers is entirely independent of those made by the Brotherhood of Rah- road Trainmen, Switchmen's union, or any other organization, these latter employees feel greatly strengthened in their demands.
 In presenting their requests to the various railroads the engineers asked the homogeneous to grant them confer ences, but no time limit was set.
 Grand Chief Warren S. Stone of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers said:
 "The wages of engineers and other train employees have not increased in comparison with other classes of labor, and in the meantime the requirements and duties of railroad men have more than doubled in the last ten years"

 Questioned regarding the present sit uation in Russia M. Gorky said he was not in touch with Russian events, but he had good reason. to believe the Rus sian situation had been exaggerated in the foreign press.

DROPS FOOTBALL GAME.
Pratt Institute Declares It Has BesA
 Brutalized by New Rules.

New York, Oct. 26.-Pratt institute in Brooklyn has decided to drop football. This decision was reached at a meet ing of the executive committee of the institution last night, and was partly the outgrowth of the game played with Princeton a few weeks ago. One of the Pratt players, whose name Is not diyulged, was injured in that contest, and has not yet recovered Pratt's asst game will be played at Lakeville, Conn, tomorrow when the team meets an eleven from Hotchkiss school.
 pr. Voorhees,, physical instructor at Pratt institute, in discussing the ac. ton of the executive committee to-day, said:
 We find that the game has been prutalized to such an extent that a player has to be practically a prize fighter to endure the knocks. I doubt if any of our best scrappers could be induced to take a chance on a game as 1t is played to-day. The open play, with sturdy ends ready for a tackle on any portion of the body, is a great menace"

GROWS WORSE AND WORSE.
MORE SENSATIONAL TESTIMONY
 IN THE HARTJE CASE.

Clifford Hooe, the Former Negro Coach-
 man for Family, Reiterates Charges
 of Intimacy With Mrs. Hartje Made
 in His First Disposition and Which
 He COntradicted in a Second--De-
 cIares He Was Coerced by Detectives
 Pittsburg, Oct. 26.-The testimony of- fered to-day in the trial of Clifford Hooe, negro and former coachman of Augustus Hartje, charged with perjury in connection with the recent Hartje divorce case, was the most sensational and revolting since the Hartje domestic troubles were brought to public atten- ton.
 Hooe reiterated the charges of in .timacy made in his first deposition and said he had been coerced into making a second deposition which is an absolute denial of the first.
 The negro said that when he was arr rested in East Liverpool, O., by num- Der of private detectives they used him roughly, and that while he occupied a cell in jail one of the detectives had pointed a revolver at his head He was told, he said, that a large crowd of angry men were awaiting his return to Allegheny county and he would be lynched unless he confessed that the charges of intimacy against Mrs. Hartje were false. Hooe said that the threats frightened him into a confess sion which he later signed in this city while intoxicated, the liquor, he said, having been purchased by the detect- ives. The negro also testified to having received considerable sums of money from John L. Welshons, a friend of MT. Hartie, but said that he merely bor- rowed it.
 Hooe was put to a severe cross-exam- inatlon by Assistant District Attorney Robb.
 Finally the negro broke down, crying out excitedly: You got me all excited and tangled up. Don't ask me so many questions at once. Ask me slowly and I'll answer you like man."
 Then hold your head up look the jury in the face and answer me like a man." said Attorney Robb.
 Further on in the cross-examination Hooe exclaimed: "Oh, you've got me all tangled up."
 50 you're tangld?'
 Yes, I don't know half the time whether I'm in Pittsburg Washington New York, Montclair or anywhere"
 Were you tangled up when you made that statement in MT. Ferguson's office about Mrs. Hartje?"
 "No, the pressure was not so strong said the defendant.
 Attorney Robb, County Detective Robinson and the district attorney E stenographer were also witnesses, MT Robb told of a second confession made by Hooe to him, which was to the effect that Hooe had never been intimate with Mrs. Hartie. He was corroborated by tr.e county detective and the stenog- rapher.
 When court adjourned until to-mor- row Hooe was still on the stand.

Troublesome Fisheries Problem Brings
 Forth New Trouble.

St. Johns, N, F., Oct. 26.--A new trou- ble has been injected into the fisheries question because of the fact that the American fishermen who have just ar rived at Bay of Islands, refuse to be bound by the compact entered into by their countrymen who preceded them to Newfoundland waters and the colo nial fisherfolk, under the terms of which the Americans agreed not to use purse seines and the colonlals contracted not to fish at night. Captain Anstruther, of the British cruiser Brilliant, and A. B. Alexander, the United States govern ment agent, who is on board the Amer ican naval tug Potomac, are endeavor- in gto arrange another compromise be- tween the discontented fishermen.

RALLY AT REPUBLICAN CLUB
CANDIDATE F. $. BUTTERWoRTH MAKESI XCELLENT ADDRESS,


 Campaign Important One--F. w. Orr
 Jumps on Ward cOmmittecs-Two
 Big Rallies to be Held Next Week.
 A rally of Eighth ward republicans was held at the Young Mems Republi- can club last night and was well att tended The principal speakers were Congressman N. D. sperry, Frank S. Butterworth, candidate for senator in the Eighth district, and Frederick w. Orr Alderman Johnson presided.
 Congressman sperry was the first speaker He said that the coming elec- ton was an important one, both na- tionally and in the state. The voters cannot afford to lose the advantages gained them by the Dingley tariff. The chief aim of the democrats is to destroy the tariff and to lower wages The Dingley tariff and the prosperity it brought, he said, was not the result of chance. It represented hard labor by the republicans. The democrats are trying to get the control of the next house In order that they may prevent President Roosevelt from carrying out his splendid ideas. The remarks of the congressman were loudly applauded,
 Frank S. Butterworth was next in- troduced and made a speech which was full of sound sense and was well receiv- ed After saying a few words in praise of the good work done by the Young Mems Republican club In arousing the enthusiasm of voters and making the formerly democratic city of New Ha- ven republican, MT. Butterworth said: Although the primary motive of the campaign is to get it's candidates into office, there Is something back of the party which Is far more important and makes the party worthy of the support of all good citizens. Blind loyalty is a good thing if the voter is being led in the right direction. It has been shown in both parties, but the republican par l ty has made it impossible for any man who votes according to his conscience to vote for the democratic party
 "The democratic party has shown that 1t is without good leaders, and that 1t has no permanent or strong princi- ples. It exists merely to kick against existing conditions, whatever they have been, are or may be- The party that is always kicking cannot do well for the country.
 Tn the past history of the two par ties men have appeared on both sides who were conspicuously brilliant in their principles. The republican party has now forged ahead. It has not only produced the material welfare of our people, but, what is of more import ance, has interested itself in their so- cial and moral well-being, The party has taken up the evils that naturally result from material prosperity. To get money is a good thing, but to get it for

Not Believed Due to the situation in
 San Francisco.

Tokio, Oct. 26.-The allegation that the retirement of Midshipman Asahi Kitigaki, from the naval academy at Annapolis, was due to the request of the Japanese embassy at Washington, Is deemed here to be impossible, as the Japanese government has carefully avoided anything likely to prove objec- tionabe to the United States. M. Kiti- gaki's parents are without word from him, but it is believed his retirement was entirely voluntary and in no way connected with the situation at San Francisco.
