Chicago. Sept. 14.-One woman
was instantly killed, twenty-eight per-
sons were injured, five of them so
seriously that they are expected to
die, in a wreck on the Lake Shore
81 Michigan Southern railroad at
Chestertown, Ind. Shortly after mid
night this morning a suburban train
from Chicago crashed into the rear
end of an excursion train bound for
indianapolis over the Lake Erie &
Western. The collision was due to a
heavy mist which hid the excursion
train from the view of the suburban.
The woman killed was Mrs. Esther
Eacox, of Chicago. The eleven seri-
cusly injured were brought to Mercy
hospital, Chicago. Most of them are
Indianapolis people. Five of the in
jured were unconscious when brought
to the hospital but all regained con-
sciousness shortly, and 1t was stated
by the physicians attending them that
all would recover.
An official statement issued by
Lake Shore officials declares that the
accident was caused by the engineer
on the suburban disregading the auto
matte block system. This was prob
ably due to the fog and smoke from
northern forest fires ooscuring the

BERNAl|LLO COUNTY IS
STRONG FOR
ANDREWS
Republicans viii Give Him a
Solid Vote and He viii Also
Secure Support of Many
Democrats.
$4,000 FROM ONE
SESSION OF CONGRESS

That w. IL. Andrews will receive
the solid support of the Republicans
of this county, Is the assurance given
by w. IL. Gillenwater, chairman of
the Republican county committee.
The committee, 1t has been ascertain
ed, has already taken up the work
of organizing the Republican forces
for Mr.. Andrews and will give him
loyal support
The outlook in this county is of
the very best SO far as the delegate
is concerned. for not only Will Mr..
Andrews receive the Republican vote
hut he will split the Democratic vote
and the Democratic workers are alb
solutely powerless to prevent 1t.
The Republican committee at this
can not well make public its
plans but that it is getting down to
business in the right way, is indicat-
ed by the reports which are causing
the Democrats to suddenly sit up and
take notice
1t is likely that politics will begin
to wane in Bernalillo county now, un-
til after the Irrigation congress but
as soon as that is over, an active
campaign will be opened for the dele
gate.
That the Republicans are convinced
that IL given a square deal within
and without their party, they will
have a walkaway in the coming cleo
ton, is indicated by the large num-
Der of candidates already in the field
end the interest which the party
members are taking in the selection
Of a county ticket.
1t is plain that the Democrats have
TO show to secure any of the county
offices against the Republicans IL the
latter go into the fight united and
so far as the delegate is concerned,
larrazolo can not poll over half of
the Democratic vote, the balance al
ready being openly for Mr.. Andrews.
The people of this county, who are
all more or less directly benefited by
appropriations totaling $3.50, 900,
whicn Mr.. Andrews secured from
one session OF Congress. are wide
awake to the benfits of having a man
in Congress with the influence and
ability OF Mr.. Andrews and not even
tn. Democratic campaigners can af-
{, IN TO openly fight him. from a vote
getting standpoint.
b If the situation throughout New
Mexico is as favorable to Mr. Andrews
as Is the one in this county, his elec-
ton by a record breaking majority
is already assured.
The Young Mems Republican club
is also already In the field and is
doing good work for the delegate. II
has fitted up handsome club rooms
ana holds weekly meetings, at which
political conditions are discussed. Its
members hope TO make II strong
factor in the campaign and perpe-
tuate It as a permanent organization
1t is already the largest organiza-
tion OF its kind In the county and
Is gaining strength daily, It is un-
derstood that auxiliary clubs will be
organized In the precincts and some
meetings for that purpose have al
ready been held.

PRESIDENT FAVORS HIM.

oyster Bay, sept. 14.-President
Roosevelt's position on the question
of the denomination of Governor
Hughes was set forth in the follow
ing official statement given out at
the executive offices today:
"The president has been in commu-
nication with Secretary Root and Con-
gresham Cox in reference to the
governorship situation and has au-
thorized them to state that while he
has no intention of debating, yet to
all his friends who have spoken to

New York. Sept 14.-Secretary
Harry Mumford of the White Rats
Political league declared in a speech
before that organization last night
that the actors, if united, could by
their gags alone influence the pres

didate in your gags" he said. ''and he
will lose. Nothing kills quicker than
ridicule."
Resolutions were adopted urging
actors to use their too often neglected
right of suffrage. Wilton Lackaye
was cheered when he denounced the
new booking system and told of eff
forts being made to obtain a new
copyright law to prevent phonograph
companies from appropriating theat-
rical songs and gags without the pay
ment of royalties.

Mr.. BRYAN SAYS
TAFT SHOULD TALK
A Few Sentences From Him VIII Do
More Than Presidents EulOgy.

Baltimore, Sept. l4.-William J..
Bryan arrived in Baltimore this morn
ing from Deer Park. Md, where he
spent Sunday. He was met oy a re-
ception committee of prominent DEM
ocrats. This afternoon he speaks at
Annapolis, returning to Baltimore In
time for a meeting this evening.
"A few plain, simple sentences
from Mr.. Taft will be worth more
than any eulogy that the president
pronounces. The presidents endorse
ment is of no value unless the presi-
dent will agree to stay in Washington
and see that Taft makes good" In
these words Bryan summed up his
opinion about the letter from Presi-
dent Roosevelt to Conrad Kohrs of
Helena, Mont, commendatory of Taft,
today.

first stroke occurred while he was on
a visit with relatives in Europe some

suffering. All the immediate mem
bers of the family were present at

PIONEER MERCHANT
DIED LAST NIGHT
Aaron ROsenwald Has Been Identi-
tied With Albuquerque Since 1888.

The death OF Aaron Rosenwald.
pioneer merchant of Albuquerque,
which occurred last evening at his
residence, 7l3 West Copper avenue,
caused sorrow to many, Mr.. Rosen-
wald was a native of Germany hav-
ing come to this country in the early
eighties. His first location In the
southwest was at Trinidad, from
where he came to this city in 1888
to engage in business.

with which he was conspicuously
connected with, the firm name being

transaction of the real business of
legislation.
The Democratic platform charges
also that the action of the present
chief executive in using the patronage
of his high office to secure the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Taft to the presidency
is "a violation of the spirit of our
institutions" Is there a man OF full
age in the United States who does
not know that the power which Mr..
Roosevelt brought to the support Of
Mr.. Taft's candidacy was not pat
ronage, but his extraordinary and
phenomenal popularity and leader
ship among the masses of the people
OF the country, popularity of which
Mr.. Bryan is now attempting to se-
cure the benefit by declaring himself
Mr.. Roosevelt's natural successor? Is
there one who does not know that IL
MIR. Roosevelt had desired to per-
petuate his power. he could have
been nominated by raising his finger.
and that his advocacy of Ar. Taft's
nomination was because it was nee
essary for him to secure the nomina-
ton of some one in order to prevent
his own nomination? is there one
who does not believe In his heart Of
hearts that the selection of Mr.. Taft
by Mr.. Roosevelt as his candidate for
the presidency at the very moment
when he himself was thrusting aside
the presidency, was with the honest
purpose to secure the best possible ad-
ministrator of the great policies that
were dear to his heart? Is 1t to a
dishonest purpose that Mr.. Bryan
claims to be the heir, and is 1t pos
sible to ascribe a desire to perpetuate
personal power to the man who held
the highest power In his grasp and
rejected it?
