ANDERSON
,I''
Vote In Election For Aldermen
Yesterday Was Very
s Light
(From Wednesdays DaIIyl


The election OF Frank Shaughnes-
sey to succeed himself by a safe
majority had been generally expected
but the election OF j. d. Anderson
came as somewhat Of surprise even
TO those who were active in his sup
port IL was generally understood
yesterday afternoon that Anderson
had a good chance for the second
place and this fact caused his friends
to do some effective campaigning
late in the day and this gave him the
big plurality,
The comparatively slight interest
taken in the election by the MAORI
ty OF voters is shown by the fact
that the total vote cast was only
293. Although this is an off year
and the number OF poll taxes paid
was less than the normal, about 700
voters we're registered when the taxes
we're paid in January. The number
Of exemptions, besides this, brings
the voting strength to a considerably
higher figure, SO the vote yesterday
represented hardly q third of the vot-
ing strength OF the town.
BY all parties the result Of the
election Is regarded as satisfactory.
1t was perhaps the fact that the ma
jorlty OF voters thought that the
election Of any of the list OF can
didates would result in the securing
Of able officers for the council that
caused the light vote. Alderman
shaughnessey record as councilman
has been eminently satisfactory and
his reelection simply continues an
able officer in service.
The New Alderman.
John d. Anderson, who will take
his place as the new member of the
council, was candidate for public
office yesterday for the first time
in hts life. In other fields of activity
he has occupied many positions OF
trust and his success elsewhere is suf-
ficient guarantee of his ability for
the new position.
Mr.. Anderson passed his boyhood
in Dangerfied, Morris county, Texas,
and after completing the schools
there, he attended school in Waco
For a number of years he taught In
the schools in Dangertield and near
by towns and in Arkansas where he
was married He has been stock
holder IN the Roscoe Lumber COM
pany now for a number Of years
and has been manager of the yard
here for about five years. He lives
with his family on North Fillmore
street Both he and Mrs, Anderson
are members of the Fillmore Street
church.

CAMPAIGN EXPENSE FUND.
Chairman 0riggs Says No Corporation
Aided the Democrats.

Representative Griggs,- chairman of the
democratic congressional committee, has
replied to letter of Mr. Perry Belmont,
president Of the National Publicity Law Or
ganizaton, suggesting that he make a vol
untary statement relative to contributions
received by his committee during the cam
paign of 1905.
Mr. Griggs in his letter says that it would
involve quite an outlay Of time and labor
to consult all of the subscribers to the
democratic fund and ascertain their wishes
in this matter, more than the committee
can devote to 1t at this time
He continues: at is, however, permits
sible to say to you in this connection that
we had no very large contributions, not
over a half dozen in excess of $500, and by
far the greater number less than 500. So
far as 1 know, or can ascertain. no corpora
tions were contributors to our fund 1t was
all given by good democrats In the hope
and for the sake of democratic success. The
entire fund collected by this commute was
a small one and was barely more than suf-
ficient to conduct the headquarters mere
and in Chicago, and to pay for the printing
incident and necessary to every campaign.
1--WE agree thoroughly with the publicity
idea, as expressed to you during the spring
of last year, and hope before another cam
paign comes on there will be upon the
statute books a law requiring such pub
Hcity."
Mr.. Belmont hopes to receive a reply from
Chairman Sherman of the republican con-
gressional committee.
The American Federation OF Labor has
made statement saying 1t has received
$8,O56, and spent 1854 on its last congress
sional campaign.

AT BIER OF ALG Err
THOUSANDS IN DETROIT VIEW
REMAINS OF SENATOR.

DETROIT January 2s.-Nearly 10000
people paid tribute to the memory of Sena-
tor Alger yesterday as his body lay in state
in the main corridor, of the city hall. For
three hours and a half continuous, I'M
broken double line Of men, women and
children passed rapidly through the CORR
dor for last look at the face of the dead
senator.
The body was guarded by Company G
7th United States Infantry, and a silk flag
draped the casket. Old soldiers who had
served in the civil war with him saluted
as they slowly marched by the body of
their old commander with tear-dimmed
eyes.
The casket was then taken to the Algers'
home on Fort street, escorted by Mayor
w. B. Thompson and committee from the
common council.
The special train on which the funeral
party came from Washington yesterday
morning conveyed Mrs. Alger and the
other members of the family. They were
accompanied by Senators Burrows, Scott
and Warren, and all the members of the
Michigan congressional delegation, except
ing Representatives Darragh, Young and
Hamilton. Eight members of the Spanish
War Veterans Association, who had served
under the orders of Senator Alger when he
was Secretary Of War, carried the casket
from the funeral car.
More than thousand people stood bare
headed in the cold as the body was placed
In the hearse. Then the escort of veterans
of the G.. A. r. and the Spanish War
Veterans formed in column behind the
hearse. and, with military band, started
for the city hall.
Hundreds lined Jefferson and Woodward
avenues and stood with barred heads as the
funeral car passed.
Mrs. Alger stood the trip home very we'll
and Is bearing up wonderfully under the
shock of the senator's sudden death.
The funeral ceremonies will be held at

WILL SUE FOR TAXES
NEW YORK ATTORNEY GENERAL
TO BEGIN LEGAL ACTION.

ALBANY, January 2S-1t is announced
that Attorney General Jackson will. during
the coming week. begin the work OF collect
ing the 1900, 600 special franchise taxes
which the Ryan-Brady-Belmont combine
has withheld from the city of New York
for so many years.
Within a few days the appointment OF
several special attorneys to prosecute these
cases will be announced.
The attorneys will be instructed to push
these cases with all possible dispatch and
force the payment of the taxes, of which
the combinations holding these special
franchise privileges have attempted to de-
fraud the city and which have been per-
mitted to go unpaid through the favoritism
of certain public officials.
In a letter to Corporation Counsel Louis
E. Desbecker of Buffalo, sent out from the
attorney generals office last night, Mr..
Jackson outlines the aggressive policy
which will be undertaken by his department
to enforce the payment OF these taxes.
First Step in Proceedings.
The attorney generals act in revoking
the appointment of James G. Graham last
week was the first step toward the collec-
ton of these taxes
Mr., Graham, after resigning from Attor-
ney General Mayors staff, was designated
by that official, before his retirement, to
handle all special franchise tax cases.
The fees which Mr.. Graham would have
received from this work, 1t Is estimated,
would have amounted to from $4,000 to
s25, 200 year. and the work. through neces-
sity, would have been dragged over a long
period Of years If undertaken by one man.
1t is the policy of the new attorney gen.
eral to designate several attorneys to ham
die these cases. rush them through and
force the payment into the city treasury at
the earliest possible date.
According to the general policy outlined
by Attorney General Jackson in his letter
to the corporation counsel of Buffalo. Cor
poration Counsel Ellison Of New York city
and the local authorities in all communities
where suits of this kind are brought against
corporations will be called upon to take
part in the proceedings and furnish evil
dence necessary.
