G. o. p. COMMITTEES TASK.
ia Hours Work and Only Eleven Day
Allotted,

114 Hours Work and Only Eleven Days
Allotted.
Chicago, June 3.-Chairman New
and Secretary Dover of the republican
national committee took their pencils
In hand today and did a little figuring
over the data which they have relating
t. contests to be heard by the national
committee, Begin, ing Friday.
When they had completed this bit of
figuring they announced in solemn ac-
cents that ia hours of solid work
faced the devoted committeeman for
which eleven days have been allotted.
This same period Of allotted time in
cludes two Sundays, which may have
to be devoted to the task Of getting the
house in order for southern states now
in chaotic condition as to their re-
publican politics.
Unless the committee can persuade
the contestants to have mercy and
shorten up their speeches it will begin
Friday noon to hear contests. which
will take over IL days work of 10
hours labor each day, allowing fifteen
minutes to each side in a district con-
test and {, half hour to each side in a
state contest, and allowing the same
amount of time for deliberations after
the arguments have been heard.
The one hope which the committee
sees is the possibility that such states
as Alabama and Texas, which are con-
tested from the gulf to the northern
boundary, will see the advisability of
submitting everything in lump, with
couple of hours argument for each
side. Texas alone will require eigh-
teen hours if it is to be taken in reg
ular order, and more than 81 day can be
saved if Texas will accommodate the
committee by Jumping their contests,
both district and state, into one.
Several members of the national
committee already are in Chicago in
readiness for the first session Friday
hudson w. Lyons, former register of
the treasury. the only colored member
of the national body. being national
committeeman from Georgia. arrived
last night. So did Charles H. Carey, the
Oregon committeeman. Lyons is anti

Washington through passengers walking
into cars running opposite TO those that
they have just left. MotorInen are under
instructions to ring on passing other cars,
but this precaution does not always pre-
vent mishaps.
There is no likeness, however. be-
tween the case Of the passenger who IS
struck by another street car and one who
is struck by motor. The motorist has
q clear view of the street and is not con-
fined to tracks. II should be regarded as
his imperative requirement to keep his

that the street car ahead OF him has
stopped to let or passengers. The pas

Autos and Street Car Passe,


The fatal automobile accident At Chevy
Chase the other day emphasizes the neces-
sity Of strict watchfulness by the authori.
ties over those who secure licenses to
run high power cars through the streets
and roads. The circumstances OF this
mishap all point to q lack Of capacity on
the part Of the man at the wheel. lie

instruction and In the emergency was
unable to manage his car so rs to avoid
collision. The motor was In the hrst
place on the wrong side Of the road. and
In the second place II was going Al
such o high rate OF speed that II dragged
the body OF the victim q considerable
distance before II was stopped.
Most OF the accidents OF this kind in
Washington and its vicinity have occurred
at street car stops. On Capitol Hill few
months ago Mr.. Reynolds was killed by
a motor as he stepped from the running
board Of q car. On another occasion Z

as he stepped from a car. In each OF
these cases the motor was overtakins

There was q landslide III 1897. but 1t
came without premonition. Maine led
m the congressional elections. and the del

republican. Mr.. Reed, who as Speaker
had just reformed the House rules after a
stormy contest. felt assured that the next
House would DO republican and he its
Speaker. The democrats were not hope
ful. But two months later the republicans
