ADMITS KILLING MAN, BUT
: NO VICTIM CAN BE FOUND.
Alleged Slayer Run Down by
Two Friends.

WOODBURY., Oct. 14.-Wazel Gar
etzo was arrested yesterday at the in
stance of two of his countrymen, who
charge him with numbering a man last
Friday, but which the authorities of
this city Know nothing about. In fact,
they do not know that there was a
murder committed. The accused. ac-
cording to the detectives. admits that
he killed a man on the date mentioned
by striking him on the head with Il
Ratchet, but hat he did 1t in self
defense. On this admission and the
statements of the Poles, who did their
own detective work and trailed the ac-
cused to this city, the man was locked
up for a hearing today.
Investigation here has failed to d.
vulge any trace of murder having been
done.

COLONEL STEVENS,
BRYAN OPPONENT,
IS NOW FOR HIM
Writes ~Commoner, Telling Him
Just Why lie Will Vote
for Him.
NEBRASKAN WANTED TO
y KNOW CAUSE OF CHANGE
"Shall the People Rule?" Is
Sentiment That Appealed to
Prominent Democrat.

Colonel Edwin A Stevens, of Ber-
nardsville and I%Totroken, a Democrat
who has been an opponent of William
7 BRYAN during the candidates career
until the present time, has declared
himself for Mr.. Bryan and has written
personally to Mr.. Bryan to the erect
that he will support him.
Former Assemblyman Archibald s.
Alexander, Of Hoboken, nephew of Col
onel Stevens, old Mr.. Bryan during the
latter's recent visit to New York that
the colonel would support him and Mr.,
BRYAN sent to Colonel Stevens a mes
sage through Mr.. Alexander, that he
would be glad to hear from him the
reasons that brought him back to the
national ticket. Colonel Stevens ac-
cordingly wrote the following letter:
II am old hat you would gladly
hear from me the reasons that lead
me to support your candidacy. l might
give many such. but to state it shortly,
/ would say that ] heartily agree with
your position that the issue is Shall
the people ruler
II assure O THAT it is a pleasure
to be able to do my small share to
secure the. right answer to this ques-
tion, and my only regret is that l can
not do more"
Colonel stevens is a strong believer
inEthe publicity and Imitation of cam
paign fund contributions. When he ran
for Congress in the Fourth Congress
sfonal District he expressed himself in
this way, and in 1906, when Senator
Frank o. Briggs was sent to the upper
house of Congress, Mr.. Stevens was a
Democratic candidate and at that time
insisted on the Limitation of campaign
expenses. He is q very wealthy man
himself and could afford to spend
money by the hundreds of thousands,
but is also a believer in allowing less
fortunate but able citizens to have a
chance against the rich candidate.
1t is the belief of the State Demo-
cratic Committee that Colonel Stevens's
letter will have great influence toward
attracting votes of others, and also
former. Democrats to Mr.. Bryan.

CITYTRACTION CONTROL

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 14.-Munici-
pal ownership of railways was con-
demned yesterday by the American
Street and Interurban Railway Asso-
citation, in convention here. The opin-
ion prevailed that it would result dis
astrously financially n the service
would deteriorate if the railways were
controlled by politics rather than the
demands of the public.
The general control of railways was
scored as a power which could sap the
foundation of popular government.
