Comes Fresh From
Mayoralty Fight in
Chicago
EXPECTED DUNNE's DEFEAT
He and His Brother Will
Spend Two Weeks Visiting
Nearby Pueblos.

Ex-Mayor Carter II. Harrison, of
Chicago, is in the city He arrived
here this afternoon direct from the
Windy City which was the scene a
| few days ago of one Of the most
tiercely fought city elections in its
history and in which he played a con
spicnous part.
Mr.. Harrison was met here by his
brother, w. Preston Harrison, also of
Chicago, who reached the city last
night, Together they will leave via
the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad to-
morrow morning on a visit to the In
dian pueblos north of here and also
to see the ancient cliff dwellings Of
Pajarito Park. They expect to
spend about two weeks in making this
tour and will probably return to San.
ia Fe before going back to Chicago.
Wants to See Real Indians.
"The only Indians l have ever seen
are the stock yard Indians in Chicago
and the Tammany Indians" Mr.. Har-
rison jokingly remarked when quizzed
about his trip by reporter Of the
New Mexican. 'I want to see the real
aboriginies now
What do you think of the outcome
Of the mayoralty contest in Chicago?"
he was asked.
We'll, to tell the truth, it is really
what l had expected" he said ut
was simply a rebuke of what is called
Heartism. Mr.. Hearst came Out to
| Chicago with his staff of writer's and
| cartoonists and started a campaign
of mud singing. There was no ex-
cuse for any knitting. The campaign
| issues were clean cut.
Dunno Caused Own Defeat
mayor Dunno can blame himself
| for his defeat. He came out favoring
the rejection of the traction ordinance
settlement and the people wouldn't
stand for it. Chicagoans want this
question settled right away so as to
have better street car transportation
| The kind we have now almost ante
dates the cliff dwellings out here.
"The last footnold the Democrats
had in Chicago and Cook County is
gone now with the exception of the
city treasurer and few judges.
John E. Traeger who was reelected
as city treasurer is known as Har-
rison man and he was violently at
tackled by the Hearst papers. Still he
was elected by 5000 while Dunno lost
by 10000.
"The first and eighteenth wards are
two of the strongest Democratic
wards in the city. I always carried
the first ward by large majority and
Dunno carried it two years ago by
1000 majority, but it fell off this year
to 500. It was the same way with the
eighteenth ward. Dunno carried it this
time by only 1,100, and so on down the
! line.
Roosevelt Helped Some.
''Do you believe the endorsement OF
| Busse's candidacy by President Roose
welt had any effect upon the result of
the election?" inquired the reporter.
Probably" was the reply. He
made no further comment.
Mr. Harrison is of the opinion that
| if Mayor Dunno had not listened to
the dictation Of Editor Hearst and
Topped on the traction question he
Iwould have been easily reelected.

IN FAVOR
OF SUBSIDY FOR
BIG SHIPS
Believes Such Vessels dS Lus-
itdnia Would be ServiGdbIe
In Wartime.
COULD ACT AS SCOUTS
AND RAPID TRANSPORTS

Washington. d. c., Nov 1S.-The
wonderful achievements OF the Lusi-
tania have brought to the attention
of naval experts the availability Of
such swift vessels for cruiser serv-
ice. The president is reported to
favor subsidizlng the merchant ma
rine to the extent at least of encour-
aging the construction of a fleet Of
monster turbine steamers with great
speed, accommodations on each ship
for transporting 10000 soldiers and
facilities for installing an emergency
battery of siX-inch rapid-fire guns
Such vessels could be used in war
time in the double capacity of troop
and scout ships.
AS to naval vessels, il appears
that the recommendations of the
navy department and the president
in future will be for two extremes
of construction--battl larger
than any ever built, and submarines.
Torpedo craft that cannot dive have
been practically driven out Of busi-
ness by the swift destroyers, which,
having no game to hunt will also
grow fewer in numbers. Gunboats
of small size likewise are in small
favor except for special purposes
Just what will be the recommenda-
tons of the navy department for
next years naval program is still
unknown, but more ships and larger
ones. fast scouts and submergible
torpedo craft will undoubtedly figure
in them.

WORKED SMOOTH GAME
TO OBTAIN VAlUABLES
Changed Addresses on Packages
and Sent Them to Fences"
Where They Were Safely
Disposed of--ConspiraCy
to Corrupt Employees.

New York, Nov. 13.-Two drivers
of the Adams Express company and
three other prisoners. accused of
conspiracy with the drivers to rob
the corporation were arraigned this
afternoon. Another driver was ar
rested yesterday and seven more
more prisoners were taken last week
All have been held in $4,000 bail
each. The detectives say that they
have uncovered thefts to the extent
of $150.000 in which drivers for the
company and a gang of thieves and
keepers of fences" figure. The total
loss to the company by the opera
tions of the crooks may reach a half
million dollars.
1t appears that a gang of thieves
and fence proprietors organized a
conspiracy 10 corrupt drivers and
package delivery men employed by
the Adams express company. The de-
tails We're worked out with such cum
ming that it was a long time after
the gang began to work before the
cempany's detectives could get any
line on the scheme. The drivers i'm
the conspiracy, when they got a
package that looked valuable and
was consigned to a point at some
distance frofa New York, would paste
false label over that of the ship
per, This label would call for the de-
livery of the package to some person
in New York
The plot was unearthed by several
detectives, who, as drivers of wag-
ons soon obtained the confidence of
the suspected parties and after a
time were taken into the gang" Its
methods were explained and the de-
tectives even changed addressed on
decoy packages and delivered them
to the alleged Fences against
whom they now have plenty OF evil
dence.
In this matter. the entire gang
was unearthed and when the off,
cials were certain the affair was
ready, arrests were made. 1t is be-
lieved that, before tho case reaches
an end, at least ten other arrests of
persons who assisted in dispoing of
the tolen goods win be made.
The case is attracting considerable
attention and it is rumored that sew
eral disappearance among Office
men are to be accounted for through
the arrests already made.

KANSAS CITY WORKING
FOR REPUBLICAN
CONVENTION
Chicago Seems to Have Pref.
erenCe of National Com
mittee. However.

Chicago, Nov. ia dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington says:
1T seems likely that the republi-
can convention fight has settled down
% a struggle between Chicago, Kan
sas City and ST. Louis. Chicago is
the first choice of the committee,
aside from all political and person
al Influences.
Kansas City, however, is making
the best fight for the convention and
the people there seem to be more
eager TO have ii than appears TO be
the case in the other two cities.
Chicago has pressed her claims In
rather mild manner and St. Louis
has done little more than invite the
convention to meet there, but Kan
sas City has worked day and night
to secure the big meeting. 1t may be
possible that. for this reason, the
committeeman may change their
present views and decide on the sec
ond city In Missouri.

OKLAHOMA CITY TO TEST
NEW PROHIBITION CLAUSE.

oklahoma City. Okla, Nov ia
With the contention that the prohi-

meant merely as a restrictive meas
ure upon the action CT the state Leg
islature in fixing a penalty, plans are
being made by the saloonkeepers Of
oklahoma City TO test the prohibi-
tory clause. Legal assistance has been
retained and a fund created for use
in carrying the case to the supreme
court of the United States Ac-
cording to the plans revealed, one
saloonkeeper has agreed to keep his
place of business open on Monday
following the admission of the state
into the union. The county au-

EXPLOSION KILLS TWO
IN N|TROGL YCERIN
FACTORY
Conclusion Felt For Sixty
Miles and Many Houses
Are Demolished.

Columbus. Ohio. Nov. 13.-Two
workmen We're killed and three or
four injured in an explosion in the
Hercules nitroglycerine factory at
Bradner today. The factory was de-
molished and a number Of houses
in the vicinity destroyed. The con-
cussiOn was felt for sixty miles
around. Harry Boston, superintend-
ent OF the factory was probably IA
tally injured.
There were about two hundred
pounds of nitroglycerine in the fac
tory at the time OF the explosion,
which occurred in the mixing room,
caused probably by overheating dur
ing the mixing process. Boston, the
superintendent, had just started into
the mixing room by one door as the
mixers dashed out another, having
discovered that the explosive was
nearing the danger point Their
warning probably saved the lives Of
the others in the plant.

WHY WORDS I'm GOD
WE TRUST" WERE
OMITTED
President Regarded Them as
IrreVerent When Used on
Coins and Stamps

Washington, u. c, Nov. 13.-In
answer to one of the numerous pro-
tests received at the white house
against the omission Of the words,
"In God we Trust" on the new gold
coins President Roosevelt has writ
ten a letter today made public. in
which ne says that there is no law
for the words, and as he did not
approve of them, ne did not direct
that the inscription be put on the
coins He regarded the use of the
words as in effect irreyerent and bor-
dering upon sacrllege.
He regarded the use of the in
scripdon on public monuments and
some public buildings as right and
proper, but to put II on coins pos
tase stamps, or In advertisements,
cheapens IT.

TO BUILD AN

Herman HeinZe Gave Peculiar
Reason For Committing
Serious Crime.
SHOWED OFFICERS PLANT
IN MOUNTAIN CABIN

New York, Nov. 13.-Herman
Heinze, who was arrested at a cabin
in the Ramapo mountains, where he
was engaged in counterfeiting half
dollars, admitted to the secret service
OFFICERS who captured him that he
was counterfeiting. He showed with
pride the dies and machinery he had
made and said that he resorted to
counterfeiting to provide funds for
building an alrship which he has
now perfected.
The officers at the time believed
that Heinze was insane to a certain
degree, owing TO the popularity Of
of his actions, but later develop
ments largely proved his story.
Had Coined Much Money.
He had good outfit for coming
and had been making money for
some time. He had little difficulty
so he said, i'm circulating It. as he
used sufficient silver to make the
coins look all right and the men who
took them seldom took the trouble
to ring one. on one or two occa-
sions, he was stopped by men to
whom he had given base coins but
his readiness to make the affair right
and his evident surprise at the fact
that the money was queer" always
saved him.

jail and unless he can give bond In
the neighborhood of $50, 900, he will
