Judge Breathitt May Run,

Hopkinsvil.e. KY. Dec. 19.-Judge
James Breathitt, who is being 50
freely mentioned all over the state
as a probable candidate for the Re
publican nomination for governor,
maintains utter Silence as to his in
tentions along this line. Early in
the spring Judge Breathitt was again
prominently in the public eye as a
probable candidate. and at that meet
ing he publicly stated that he would
not make the race. Since that time
however, his friends and Republicans
generally, have become so insistent
that II Is an admitted fact that he has
at least again taken the matter under
AMUSEMENT.
In fact, it is generally believed that
Judge Breathitt will consent to make
the race provided he can do so with
out his making an excessive cam
paign contribution. He now holds
the position of county judge of this
county, and aside from the income de
rived therefrom he enjoys one Of the
largest and most remuneratiye law
practices in the state.
Should he become a candidate there
Is no doubt but that he would prove
a most formidable opponent. On the
stump he would be almost invincible
for the state hasn't "a better or more
eloquent orator than he, or one more
capable of holding his own under any
and all circumstances.

NUMBER OF FIRES
And LOSSES LOWER
Chief Woods Report For Year
A Good one
Attributes Showing TO Work of Men
Better Wiring and Education
of Merchants.
REASON RATES WENT HIGHER

Paducah had a 80 per cent. de-
crease in fires and as great a de-
crease in loss during 1906 from the
previous year. and il can be attrib-
uted to several facts First TO i'm
proved wiring. second to the care ia
ken by merchants and residents in
the disposition OF debris, and third
to luck.
This is shown in the report of
Fire Chief James Wood He has been
figuring on his annual report and
has gained a definite idea as to how
It will result
1--WE have been lucky this year.
Consider the most serious fires we
have had and you will find the alarm
reached us after the fire had been
burning many minutes. This year we
have had comparatively few big fires,
but several small ones we're discov-
cred in Tine and the alarm rushed in.
But for this they might have proven
destructive CONGREGATIONS.
Wiring IS put in more carefully.
Property owners have been made TO
feel the Importance of this feature.
by the inspector. and are looking to
il themselves.
Another fact is that merchants
store less combustible trash about.
and take more care with their fires.
1t is a matter of educating the peo-
Pile. and we have made an excellent
start. We are proud of the years rec
ord, and hope IT will have some eff
feet on the insurance men in the mat
ter of reducing fire insurance rates. Z"
Most of the rates are coming
back TO the old level" said an insur-
ance man today. "Serious confagra-
tions. including that Of San Fran
cisco. marked the year. Eighty-four
companies out OF some 500 went to
the wall. and companies with mil
lions of surplus have been reduced
to a few hundred thousand"

ling testimony was given by Rudolph
Spreckles yesterday In the proceed
lngs before Superior Judge Dunno,
in which Mayor Eugene f. Schmitz
and Abraham Ruef are seeking to set
aside five indictments found against
each of them for felony eXtortlon.
Spreckles, who had been called to
the witness stand by the defense, tes-
tilted during his examination that
Abraham Ruef had called on him at
the time of the big municipal bond
issue, and asked him 10 form a syn
dictate to take all the bonds thus au-
thorized. Spreckles was unable to
see what guarantee there was, that
II a syndicate we're formed II could
secure the bonds as under the law
they must be put up at public auc-
ton and sold to the highest bidder
Ruef informed Spreckles, according
10 his testimony on the stand. that
this could be easily arranged, for he
would have a general strike declar-
ed on all the street railroads and tie
up the different lines. With San
Francisco in this condition, he cal
culated, that no outside capital
would bid on the city's bonds.
