OF delegates elected directly by the people, they
have increased my many obligations to them by
coupling with the Endorsement Of the adminis-
tration Of Theodore Roosevelt the suggestion of
my name as his successor.
"I note the convention's reference TO the fact
that as Attorney General and Senator, 1 was
privileged to aid in the formulation and carry
ing into legislation and judicial decision those
Just policies for the protection of the people
which have greatly endeared President Roose-
welt to the people I value the action of the
convention approving such public service as I
have been enabled to render in the past with
satisfaction not exceeded by my gratitude for
the unsolicited pledge of support for higher
honors and graver duties for the future
have too profound sense of the dignity of the
chief masistracy and too intimate a knowledge
OF its labors and responsibilities to have sought

assign for their action should commend them
selves to the Republican National Convention,
I would accept its action with full appreciation
OF it's import"

FATAL ACCIDENT IN ALBANY AUTO RUN
CLARENCE MKENZIE KILLED WHEN ELECTRIC CAR
HITS M4CHINE-TWO OTHERS BADLY HURT.

1t out of It's path like a cocklesheu Mckenzie,
who was killed. shot straight up in the air
nearly high the telegraph wires, falling
ufeess against fence several yards away.
That Swan and Mosher were not instantly killed
seemed due only to the fact that the front part
OF the runabout all but cleared the trolley car.
The fact that the wreckage of tho runabout fell
on the far side of the track would tend TO con-
firm this reasoning
The Pope Hartford touring car, No. IL in the
contest. driven by Philip Hines was right behind
the Corbin machine. but quick Jammng on Of
the brake and locking of the wheels which al
most threw the occupants out of the car, stopped
It in time.
Tho wreck of the Corbin car was so complete
that those who looked the twisted bits OF
wood and steel after the accident could scarcely
believe that there was enough 10 form even a
runabout
The actions OF the crew OF the trolley car
after the accident received universal condemna-
tiou. The dead man was laid out on the wet
ground outside the little waiting room while
Swan stretched bench in the waiting
room and Mosher laid on the barroom floor
Of tho hotel. Fully half an hour elapsed before
medical aid was secured, Finally a Pope-Toledo
runabout and q Wlnton brought DR.. T. G. Cox
and coroner and hurried the injured men 10
the hospital
Word over a crossed telephone wire reached
Mrs Clarence Mckenzie at her home, in ST.
James's Court. No PA West 92d street. last
night that her husband had been killed She
had "a prcmouition that her husband would
meet harm. and begged him not to go. as he
was leaving tho house yesterday morning.
He was president OF the Standard Brake Com
pany. of No 1O1 West Goth street. which makes
auto clutches. AS he started from home. and
Mrs Mckenzie begging him TO stay, he
said: I'D Ike to. myself; but can't draw back
now"
Mr.. Mckenzie agreed not to go further than
Poughkeepsie and sent a message back from
there in tho forenoon. telling Mrs. Mckenzie
that she would hear from him later. When
another message did not arrive she called up
the Ten Eyck Hotel, In Albany. at o'clock.
The wires crossed, and she heard Mr. Richard
son. who was with the party say to some one:
Don't tell her. He's all cut up"
Then she swooned, and physicians had to be
called to attend her. Later a telegraph mes
sage reached Mrs. Mckenzie telling the details
of the accident
