BITTER fight FOR
TAMMANY CONTROL
[By Associated Press.l

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE
Tammany braves entered today upon
the final week of the bitterest cam
paign that has waged in twenty years
for control of the democratic organ
ization of New York county. One
week from last Tuesday the primar-
les will be held, and it will then be
determined whether Charles F.
Murphy is to be left in possession of
the Tammany leadership or whether
the faction opposing him will have
gathered sufficient strength to wager
a successful campaign for his de-
thronement.
That the Tammany chief is alarm
ed at the display of power made by
his foes is made apparent by the re-
markable activity in the Fourteenth
street Wigwam, and from the old
fashioned zeal with which the con-
tests against the reform element
have been conducted. Murphy re-
alizes that he is fighting for his life
and he authorizes all his lieutenants
to leave no stone unturned or wea-
pom undrawn to bring about victory.
On the other hand, the anti-Murphy
contingent, which is headed by
Mayor Mcclellan, has been making
one of the most dignified yet effec-
tive campaigns ever waged in a pri-
mary contest, and the inroads they
have made upon Murphy's strong
hold have created panic in some
Tammany headquarters.

OCEAN RECORD
Is Shattered
IBy Associated Press. l

CAPE RICE. N. F., Sept. 1.-THE
Cunard line steamer Luisitania.
whose maiden voyage across the At
lantic is expected to eclipse all ocean
records, came in touch, through the
wireless telegraph, with the Ameri-
can continent early today. At 5:25
o'clock this morning a message was
received from the steamer, saying
that the vessel was 225 miles south
east of Cape Rice at that hour. The
indicated position of the Luisitania
is about 1926 miles from Sandy
Hook, so that the big steamer, If she
can maintain twenty-five knots,
which speed is credited to her, will
reach the entrance to the port of
New York about / a. m. Friday,
which will make the time of the voy-
age about four days and eighteen
hours, or more than thirteen hours
better than the record trip of the
Queenstown to New York.

The husband declares that he

Something About the Rajah Among
American Wage Farmers.
New Broadway Magazine.

American Wage Farmers.
New Broadway Magazine.
He is a short, sturdy man, about
50 years of age, rather bald, and as
plainly undecorative in appearance
as the general manager of a great
railroad system. He commands what
is said to be the highest salary paid
any man in the world.
No, he is not a life insurance presi-
dent. A 100000 life insurance presi-
dent would have to work nearly ten
years for the salary that this man
earns in twelve months. In one year
he receives as mucn as the United
States government has paid all told
to Messrs. Roosevelt, Mckinley, and
Cleveland for their services as Chief
Executives. Yet this man, whose year
ly pay equals that of a score of Pres
idents, may walk any day from his
employers offices in the Empire
Building, at II Broadway, to his spa
cious 2O0-foot yacht waiting for him
at the Battery, and never receive a
glance of recognition other than from
casual acqu~aintances. The yacht,
manned by a crew of thirty, carries
him to his country home at Glouces-
ter, Massachusetts, and out of bust
ness hours he may amuse himself
with any one of mis- several speedy
autos, each of a price to buy a home
for the usual wage Garner. On the
door of the office ne has left there
is only the name,
MR.. HAMMOND.
John Hays Hammond is the most
famous mining expert and the highest
paid American living. He knows all
mining countries so well that he can
pick the one paying proposition out
of a thousand that would look good
to the average person. The man with
the proposition seldom mas 70 unrol
his maps before he has his answer.
Mr.. Hammond does the bulk of his
work through a corps of experts who
go to all parts of the world to eX-
anime properties. When one is re-
ported OF favorably by successive
groups, each higher han the first,
then the decision reaches the last
court, which is Hammond. He goes
to the place, in his private car, if
possible, and looks the property over.
He reports in hardly more than a
word, yes" or No" The word of
no other man today, not even of Edi-
son, can marshal so many millions
to what must essentially be a gam
bling proposition. This eminence he
has won through a long series of tips
that have been wonderfully accurate.
The glaring publicity of salary, of
dollars and cents, is distasteful to
him. But the guage Of dollars and
cents is only another way of saying
that a safe prophet in the professions
is a rarity that m high. and no
where quite so high as in the person
of John Hays Hammond.

of one of them, the unsuccessful
search for the same and the circum-
stances attending the arrest. On cross
examination his answer were frank,
and he, too, appeared rather to lean
to the side of the defense. Yes, he
had known Mr.. Scarborough although
only as an habitue of the library and
by name) for several years. He had
always regarded the prisoner as a gen.
tleman. He Scarborough had repeat
eddy examined trays of valua BILE coins
in the same alcove and none had been
missed before that date. When he had
been asked to aid in looking for the
missing gold piece he had felt no sus-
picion. He had the police
man because everything looked so
strange, and, besides, it was his duty TO
do so under the rules. Had he been in
the alcove in question within the next
few days? No; he had been transfer
red to the other side of the building
and had been employed there until a
week ago, when be had resigned his
position partly on account of a weak
back and partly to assist his wife in
the management of a boarding house
formerly kept by her mother, who had
recently died.
The next witness called by the dis
trict attorney was a small eyed, beetle
browed. dirt begrimed man, who
said his name was Raphael Swzoni.
He vas employed as a sweeper, clean
er N sort of general utility man in
the library. On the second day after
the disappearance of the gold piece he
had swept the alcove as a matter of
ordinary. routine work. The states
representative produced from his pock-
ct a small packet, which he carefully
opened and laid before the witness.
Asked If he could say what it con-
tanned, the beetle browed man replied
that he recognized the contents as be-
ing particles of yellow metal which
he had found on taking up a breadth
of the mating in the alcoye in ques-
ton to be shaken. OF his own knowl-
edge he could not say of what metal
the particles were.
