Estimate Of the Cost Of LeVee is
Feet Deep, "a Feet Wldo, Top
and Bottom.
TRAIN CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM.

Good steam shovel working double
time will easily load 1900 cubic yards
per day.
At this rate progress would be about
one mile "A month.
II work was started at both ends, 1t
the leVee.
This would cost about 2 cents per
yard for shovel work, or $l.410 per
mile, or SI12,8OO for the 80 miles.
Transportation Of this material from
the pine woods by railroad. The first
20 miles from both ends would require
one train to carry away the material
that one shovel loaded, this also at a
cost Of 2 cents per yard. The second
20 miles would require two trains at
double the cost Of the first.
This would make the cost OF the 80
miles $lG9.2OO.
The dredging OF the canal In which
the sand goes at 2h cents per cubic
yard, would cost Sl,7G2 per mile, or
Sl40,DG0 for the 80 miles.
The cost Of the railroad would be
about $4,000 per mile. making 1920 900.
The cost Of the dredgcs may be put
down at $4,000 apiece and two Of them
would be required
The two shOVels would cost about
$4,000 apiece, and the trains about
$4,000 apiece for the four trains re-
Quired.

NEWPORT, Nov. Col. DE Laucey Aston
Kane, a cottager who makes this city his
legal residence, to-day filed nomination
papers for Alderman from the Fifth ward.
Col. Kane is the first Of the cottlgerS TO
seek a place in'the new city government.
1t is likely that others will follow. as the
cottagers want representation in the city
government in view Of the fact that they
pay the greater part Of the taxes.
Under the new city charter any one can
become a candidate for Alderman by fling
nomination papers.
1t was announced to-day that the asses
sors of Portsmouth, a suburb of Newport
have increased the valuation. as they find
that the low tax rate is not sufficient To
run the town.
Among the residents Of Portsmouth are
Alfred G.. Vanderbilt, Reginald G.. Wander
bilt and Henry A. C.. Taylor. Mr.. Taylor
gave up his citizenship in Newport a year
ago because of the increase in his personal

While the Boston express OF the New

four blocks north of the Melrose station on
account Of an open drawbridge over the
Harlem River it was run into by the SIAM

Engineer John Larkin of the Stamford
train was unable to see the danger signals
set against him because of the bridge over
Webster avenue at I66th street. The local
was running at the rate OF twenty-five
miles an hour, and when it had cleared
the bridge the rear lights Of the Boston
express were visible four blocks beyond.
The engineer reversed the lever, but his
Roadway was too great to avoid the col
lision.
As soon as possible the passengers in the
wrecked car were moved into forward cars
on the Boston train, and it hurried into
the Grand Central Station.
The railroad people told the police that
only a few persons got bumps and bruises,
not enough to call for medical attention.

HEARST HAS SPLIT THE PARTY
James }. Martin Predicts That He VIII
Lose Kings. Queens and Richmond

Lose Kings. Queens and Richmond
James j. Martin, who recently resigned
the Tammany leadership OF the Twenty
seventh Assembly district because he would
~notsupport Hearst, was happy To the extent
OF j~oviality when the purport Of Mr. Cookers
interview was explained to him.
Croker he said, sees the condition
Of things just now in Tammany Hall as I
sGw them when l refused to be any longer
a party to supporting Hearst. and when I
got out OF Tammany Hall rather than be
identified with 1e conspiracy which led
to the nomination Of Hearst at Buffalo.
"Mr. Croker will nave the backing OF all
the old time Democrats in this city in declar-
ing. as he has done, that Tammany ought
not to have STOOD for the selection of Hearst,
and | wan TO add to what Mr.. Croker has
aid that the nomination of Hearst was
brought about by theft-the theft OF the
rights Of the delegates who were sent to-
Buffalo. and who were robbed of their RICH t..
But the game that was put through
at Buffalo will not help Mr.. Hearst because
I have not the least doubt hat he will be
overwhelmingly swamped. Hearst has split
the Democratic party wide open not only
in the State, but in the city. and from what
I have learned Of the feeling of the party
toward him and tow ard the present leaders
who are running the affairs OF Tammany
Hall at the Fourteenth street headquarters,
Mr.. Hearst may carry this county by a
comparatively small plurality, but he will
certainly lose Kings, Queens and Rich
mond."
Max F. Ihmsen, Mr.. Hearst's political
manager, said last night in commenting on
the statement made by Mr.. Croker: This
declaration which Mr.. Croker has made
in praise Of McCarren will prove a source
Of unquestioned strength for Mr.. Hearst
in every part Of h State. The Croker
declaration further emphasizes the issue.
All good citizens throughout the State will
line up behind Mr.. Hearst"

Special Cable Despatch TO THE sun,
BERLIN, Nov. l.-Prof. Burgess denies
that what he said in his address at the
University of Berlin on October D about
the Monroe Doctrine and protection was
in any way meant TO reflect the views Of
President Roosev welt on those topics. He
did not say anything that could convey
such an impression.
On the contrary he believed that while
the President was in favor Of a revision Of
the tariff he was a strong ~upholder OF the
Monroe Doctrine, though only to the exten,
that no European Power should acquire
new territory in the Western Hemisphere.
Prof. Burgess considers that protection
and the Monroe Doctrine are antlquated
ideas, and hopes that the expression OF Ms
views will lead 20 the discussion Of them
by American politicians.

Jury Assesses PecunIary Damages 10 His
Parents New Trial TO he Sought.
A verdict OF s25, 900 damages for the death
of Sam S Shubert, the theatrical manager,
was returned against the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company by a jury in the United
States Circuit Court before Judge Holt
yesterday. The plaintiffs were David and
Catherine Shubert, parents Of the dead man.
1t is understood that a new trial will be
asked for.
The damages asked for we're 500, 900.
The railroad company admitted its neglect
and liability for Shubert's death. The only
question to be determined was the peouniary
damage suffered by his parents. 1t was
brought out that he had made sos 900 the
year before his death, having sent home
$11 500 each year for the support Of his
father and mother for several years, prior
The most interesting testimony offered
was that showing the busy n successful
life OF Sam Shubert with his rise from a
newsboy to a manager with twenty theatres
and twelve shows. He was on the train that
ran into a buckled freight on May 10, was
taken from his Pullman berth badly man
gled and died from his wounds In the hos
pital the next day.
David Belasco testified hat Shubert was
a genius, not only in business aoImen, but in
dramatic judgment and taste and in his
general knowledge OF both the artistic and
the commercial sides OF the theatre.
The only evidence submitted by the
railroad was Sam Shubert's will. which
gave all his property to his brother Lee,
knowing and directing that he will make
all proper provision for the maintenance
of our mother and sisters in their pr oper
sphere in life az | have endeavored to do.
