SARATOGA SHERIFF
CAN'T Be REMOVED,
SAYS HIS LAWYER
Governor Will Not Try to Make
Martyr of Official, Declares
Senator Bracket.

SARATOGA, N. Y, Aug. 11.-Sheriff
Bradley, against whom charges of
neglect OF duty in connection with
alleged gambling on the SARATOGA race
track have been filed, had a conference
today with ex-State Senator Bracket,
whom he has retained as his counsel.
The latter said afterwards:
Il have sen a copy of the chargeS
against the sheriff. l know nothing of
the facts, nothing thai has occurred IN
the track, because 1 have not been
there; but If the sheriff has honestly
lone his duty, on the lines laid down
In the written opinion l gave him for
his guidance, he cannot properly be re-
moved.
1 do no believe, nor have | any
reason to believe, that the Governor
Will try to make a martyr of the sheriff
In order to show his W zeal against
race-track gambling. Such course is
entirely unnecessary; his zeal is pretty
well known already. l assume that
the hearing will be conducted with the
fairness as a proceeding In court,
and I shall prepare for it in the same
way"

COL. MURPHY, JR:.,
BACK FROM TRIP
ACROSS ATLANTIC
Saw Halswelle Run and Win
=" Olympic Preliminary by
Ten Yards.

Looking bronzed and rugged after his
six weeks vacation abroad, Colonel
Franklin Murphy, jr., son of ex-Gov-
ernor Murphy, who arrived In New
York yesterday on the steamship New
Amst ardam, of the Holland-American
line. was full of anecdotes of what he
declared to have been a most pleasant
trip when seen by an EVENING STAR
reporter at the offices of the Murphy
Varnish Company today.
my trip was purely one OF pleasure"
declared Colonel Murphy. land l should
imagine of very little interest to any
one but myself and immediate friends.
II went across with two friends from
New York and we spent practically all
our time In travelling through England,
Ireland and Scotland, making. one short
trip to Paris. We did not meet any
Newark people in our wanderings, al
though while In London l kept an eye
on the American team in the Olympic
games.
Il saw only one day of preliminaries
in the contests in which the trial heats
of the 400-meter event. were run off.
l saw 1alswelle, the Englishman about
whom SO much controversy conferred
later In the games, win his heat by ten
yards, n 1 picked him at that time
as easily the best of the field that was
left for the finals.
Although 1 did not see the finals of
this race. I came home on the same
boat with some college men who did.
one of. whom, a Yale man, was par
ticularly we'll up OIL track athletics.
This gentleman, whose name I do not
care to give, said frankly that Car
penter did out across the track In
front of Halswelle when the latter
tried to pass him at the last turn.
There was no question of humping,
but the Cornell man, according to this
version, saw his chance to throw the
Englishman out of his stride by cross
ing in front of him, and did so. My
Yale friend claimed that this vas per-
fectly fair and legitimate, according
to the ethics and practises Of running
contests in America. Personally 1 do
not think so, but feel hat we did toe
much objecting and protesting in the
games and should have accepted the
English rulings"

AND DOG
WANT PERMIT TO
CARRY A PISTOL
Failing to Get It There Is an
Explosion at Police
Headquarters.

Queer sounds came from the private
Corbitt today, and while the sleuths
were crawling under desks and attempt
ing to disappear behind ink-wells an
irate individual. attired in a white linen
duster, and a small and equally irate
dog, left the chiefs office hurriedly.
The head of the department himself,
red in the face, followed.
When the smoke had cleared away
and the stranger was on his way to the
Board of Health, the sad tale of a
dogs tail was told.
When the chief arrived al his Office
Frank M. Weller, Of 319 Bank street,
demanded a permit to carry a revolver
so that he could shoot the dog of
Joseph Gordon. Of II Wallace place,
which had bitten Mr.. Weller.
The permit was refused and then the
row began. From the sounds that
came from the office it was surmised
that both became slightly personal,
with heating results.
"PIl shoot hat durn dog whether /
get a permit or not. I did shoot him
ice through the ear" declared Weller
afterwards. HE is AM awfully un-
friendly dog, n has chewed enough
flesh off me to make a good police
man."
Mr.. Weller is the mar who claims his
dog as a partner, and has organized a
company with the dog for the COM
pany. There Is a suit pending in the
civil court now against the corporation,
and when 1t comes up the opposing
lawyers will try to show that the dog
is not a legal partner.
Chief of Police Corbitt has drawn a
veil over the occurrence. and Weller Is
at home lying in wait for the dog
with a gun, while his canine partner
watches rcgretfully at seeing a col
league done to death.

Turner turned out of the road. and
Or. Baskin. thinking he had passed
the vehicle. turned his machine TOO
suddenly. and struck the rear wheel
Of Mr.. Turner's buggy, whirling the
occupants high in the air, knocking
every spoke cut Of the wheel, and
winding the rim of it around the
wheel Of the automobile. Some of the
sDokes were picked up a distance of
thirty feet away. In the collision the
automobile was reversed end for end,
and it is thought turned a complete
sOmersault.
The miraculous part Of this coils
ion was that none of the occupants of
either the automobile or the buggy
we're injured-not even the baby. Just
how it all happened is a mystery. It
is certainly the most marvellous es-
cape on record.
In the collision the horse was re-

that the animal did not have time to
