What Hearst Thought Of Mr.

FLINT QUALITY.

In editorial IN '"T1he American OF December
80. 1906. William Randolph Hearst said;
No one in New York State will question the excel
lence OF the work done by the counsel for the peO-
pie, Mr.. Charles z. Hughes. He has drawn from
the management Of the companies under litigation
admissions which have damned them in the eyes
OF the public
He has done perhaps everything that could BE-
done during the time at his disposal. II there
should be no extension OF time, Mr.. Hughes can
retire with the perfect certainty that his work has
had the approval and aroused the commentator
Of the people.
Several weeks earl1er-October 15-this editorial
paragraph also printed in The American.
And what the first act OF the Repub-
ncan boss after deserving the fusion feared OF
Ryan?
To reach down into the tribunal now investigat-
ing the infamies Of the insurance companies and
strive to take away the brilliant and uncompro-
missing investigator who Is following the path Of
financial perfidy and crime that may lead finally
TO Ryan's door.
1t is to the everlasting honor OF Charles Evans
Hughes that he saw through this intrigue and re-
II sed TO be the dupe OF Ryan and Odsn.

HUGHES PLANS HIS FIGHT
Spends Quiet Day Thinking OUer
Speech of acceptance.

Charles z. Hughes Republican candidate for
Governor, spent quiet day at home yesterday.
In the morning he and his father attended St.
Pauls Methodist Episcopal Church, almost di-
rectly across the street from his home. He IS
not member of this church, but attends ser
vices there from time TO time because of It's
nearness. Many personal friends called on him
each visitor.
Much time spent in ponderng his speech
Of acceptance of the nomination which he will
deliver at the notification ceremony on Wednes-
day night and In working up material for use
in his speaking trips about the state Tee-
grams continued to pour in on him yesterday,
but Mr.. Hughes has been forced to give I'D his
habit of answering personally each communica-
ton addressed to him. Their number and the
urgent demands on his time forbid It,
If the new state headquarters at No 10 East
Both street are in condition Mr.. Hughes will be
at his rooms there this afternoon, ready to re-
ceive visitors and take personal char of his
campaign. He will. in all probability, visit his
law office for few minutes in the morning but
most of his time will be spent at the political
headquarters. Chairman Woodruff will be
there. and Senator Page will consult with them
on plans for the campaign in New York County
President Parsons of the New York County
Committee will return to this city to-day and
he too, will visit the candidate TO talk over the
situation. In all probability the judgeshp situa-
ton VIII be taken up by the county committee
leader and his lieutenants and the state chair
man and leaders IN day or two.
The state committee will hold a meeting in
this city on Wednesday, prior to the notification
or the candidates, and at that time probably
will settle details OF the upstate campaign Mr.
Hughes intends TO spend practically all his time
between now and election in speaking trips. the
major part of his efforts being given over to the
upstate counties. Lieutenant Governor Bruce
also Will make long stUmping trips Secretary
Shaw has promised to speak through the state
and Attorney General Mayer will do much cam

ing bent on the first meeting of the camDaign

HEAVY LOSSESIN SECURITIES
Fully $500, 600, 900 Represents the
Depreciation.

New York. Probably three times the
losses sustained in the San Francisco
disaster by the inhabitants Of that city
and others owning property there were
sustained in the remarkable break in
securities listed on the New York Stock
Exchange following the news of the
earthquake and con~hagration.
1t is estimated that fully 5000, 600, 900
would represent the extent of the de-
probation following the disaster in
values of stocks and bonds traded in on
the New York Stock Exchange and
other listed securities in Boston, Chi
cago and Philadelphia. The deprecia-
ton in twenty-four active stocks from
the prices OF April II, the day before
the disaster, TO the low point, reached
on May 2, amounted to the huge total
Of $45T 800, l76. These stocks are the
most active on the New York Stock Ex-
change and upon these issues fell the
brunt of the enforced selling and
changed sentiment as a result Of the dis
aster.
On the exchange, however, are scores
Of other securities which were not in
cluded in the estimate. Each of these
suffered substantial declines in their
market value. This enormous decline
proved somewhat conclusively that there
were other agencies at work in addition
to the losses to capital sustained through
the San Francisco disaster, which pro-
duced the sensational decline in the
stock market.

wealthiest Italian merchants of New

Hand band. The life of Detective Dan
tonic of the police force, who is active

the authors of threatening letters re-

band, has also been threatened. The
demands are for sums ranging from
$1,000 to $1,000, and are apparently
graded according to the reputed wealth
of the prospective victims.
Among those who have been singled
out and who are now in daily fear Of
the Black Hand because they have dis
obeyed the demand for ransom are A..

turer; Augustine Russo, A. Ditripaui,
