LuslTANIA, "QUEEN OF THE SEA"
Makes Trip Faster for the Course, and
Also for the Atlantic Ocean,

The giant turbine Lusitania of the
Cunard line, came into New York Sat-
urday on her maiden voyage, with a
new record Of five days and 81 min
utes between Queenstown and New
York. The Lusitania failed to lower
the hourly speed average of 23.O1
knots made by the Kaiser Wilhelm
H., of the North German Lloyd line,
though she covered the distance be-
tween ports in an average of 1901
knots, which is record for a maiden
voyage. Captain Watt said that when
the time comes for record breaking,
after her machinery is in thorough or
der, the Lusitania will be the empress
Of the seas.
The Lusitania, the largest ship
afoat, was given royal welcome on
her arrival, and it was a continual
ovation from the time she sped past
Sandy Hook light vessel and made her
way through the Ambrose channel,
the first ocean liner to enter the new
fairway, until she was safely warped
into her dock.
Vernon H. Brown, American repre-
sentative Of the Cunard line, said:
The Lusitania burned considerably
less than 1000 tons of coal a day in
making % knots. Her engines worked
perfectly and there was not a hot
bearing during the entire trip. When
going at high speed, the screws made
ls6 revolutions a minute"

NEW ENGLAND FAvoRs TAFT
Poll Shows He Leads All Other Presi-
DENTAL Candidates.


Dental Candidates.
Following it's poll of western states
which showed almost unanimous de-
mand for candidate thoroughly in
sympathy with Roosevelt's ideas the
Chicago Tribune publishes resume
OF it's poll of the New England states,
which conservative district stands for
President Roosevelt's progressive
policy, more than IS per cent of the re-
publicans ratifying Roosevelt ideas.
Sentiment for the nomination of Sec
rotary Taft or Governor Hughes is
overwhelming, and general opinion
favors both these men on the ticket.
Taft, of course, is largely in the lead,
having received the votes of 289 re-
publican editors, senators and con-
gressmen, for first choice out of to-
tai of $40, while Hughes was given
1879 for first choice preference, re-
markable and significant showing for
a public man who has been before the
people for so short time. A year
ago he was scarcely known except for
his progress in the insurance investi-
cation, while today he is mentioned
as the first, second or third choice in
389 out Of $40 ballots, while Taft is
first, second or third in the running
on 414.
Figures for the secretary of war
show that in New England more than
half of the ballots mentioned him as
first choice; one-fifth were for sec
ond choice, and 10 per cent were for
third.
What is perhaps most surprising OF
all is that while two candidates, Taft
and Hughes, who have most frequent
ly been classed as progressive, were
so abundantly popular in New Eng
land, men like Cannon, Fairbanks
Knox and others of the distinctly con
sentative type, have comparatively
small following. Taking ballots fol
first choice Taft has more than the
others put together, and his only rea
competitor is Hughes. For SECOND
choice, Hughes leads Taft, and TO-
third choice as well.
