REGARD CHOICE
OF DEMOCRATS A WISE ONE

News of the nomination of Judge
Frank j. Murasky of the superior court
of San Francisco as Judge McFarland's s
successor was received by Los Angeles
Democrats last night, and though they
evxpressed some regret that their
choice. Judge Cyrus McNutt, failed OF
nomination they took the true Demo-
cratic view of abiding by the conven-
tion's work and said they were pre-
pared to work for his election.
Judge Murasky will prove a formid-
able opponent for Judge Melvin, for, as
Secretary John f. Murray of the state
committee told some Angelenos, there
is not Democrat in the state who
could raise an objection to him.
Two years ago when Judge Murasky
ran on the state Democratic ticket as a
candidate for justice of the supreme
court he received over 112,000 votes. In
San Francisco he, ran ahead of his
ticket, but he beat both the Republican
candidates, Justices Henshaw and Lori
gan, by 1000 votes.
He has always been great vote
getter and invariably had the support
of the union labor people.
Secretary of State Curry has said
that he will file the certificate as soon
as he receives it. hence there will be
no technical objection to the Demo-
cratic nominee getting place on the
ticket.

[By Associated Press.1

HAvRE DE GRACE, Nd, Sept. 3d.
Through the collapsing of a span or
nearly 600 feet of the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad bridge over the Susquehanna
river at this point this morning twelve
loaded coal cars of northbound
freight train were carried down and the
span was totally demolished.
William Wilson of Havre de Grace,
a watchman, went down with the
wreckage and received injuries which
may prove fatal.
There were no other casualties.
The bridge, which was erected in the
early eighties, was being rebuilt and
double tracked. The accident occurred
about o'clock. With crash that was
heard for a distance of several miles,
the immense mass fell into the river,
completely choking up the eastern
channel.
Two hours later the section that went
down would have been swarming with
workmen engaged in putting up the
great steel beams and girders which
enter into it's construction.
There are reports current that the
bridge was tampered with. and that
dynamite had been concealed in differ
ent parts of the structure during the
past few weeks.

CARS COLLIDE, TWO
YOUNG WOMEN HURT
Oil Tracks Cause Accident on Downey
Avenue Line - Motorman Is
Severely Injured When
Fuse Blows Out

Oiled tracks on Downey avenue near
Hancock street were responsible for
collision between two outbound Dow
ney avenue cars last night in which
Misses Annie and Jennie Parsons were
slightly injured.
The leading car had come to a stop
to let off passengers and the second
was unable to stop because of the oil
on the tracks. The force of the coll
lision was not great, but the two
young women thrust their arms
through a window in trying to support
themselves from falling. They were
cut on the hands and wrists. Both
were taken to their homes after their
injuries had been attended to. The oil
was carelessly sprinkled on the tracks
by men oiling the streets.
Philip Reise, living at 634 Towne ave-
nue., a motorman employed by the Los
Angeles railway, was severely burned
about the face and hands by the ex-
plosion of a fuse on his car last night.
Reise was running an extra car to
and from the circus, but at O'Clock
pulled into a dead track near Agri-
cultural park. In changing the head
light he blew out the fuse and the
flames struck him in the face. His
eyes were severely burned and his
face blistered. He was taken to the
receiving hospital where Doctors Car
rett. Wright and Stearns attended him.

connected with an attempt to bribe or
influence Attorney General Monnett OF
Ohio to dismiss suits pending against

Judge Murasky was given similar
nomination by the Union Labor party
several days ago and also was indorsed

Judge McNutt's name If Judge Muras-

Walter Macarthur, editor of the Sea-

[ny Associated press.l

VTT TASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-President
w Roosevelt tonight, following
upon a prolonged conference
with members of the cabinet at the
White House. prepared and gave out
his reply to William j. Bryan. the
Democratic candidate. relative to
Hearst's charges that Governor Has
kell, treasurer of the Democratic cam
paign committee, had represented the
Standard Oil interests In Ohio ana
Oklahoma.
Mr. Bryan had demanded specific
proof of the charges, promising that
In the event of their sustantiation
Haskell would be eliminated from the
campaign, but the president dismissed
the Ohio case which involved an al
legation of attempted bribery. with the
exclamation that he had "made no d.
rect charge against Governor Haskell
as regards that particular instance
President Roosevelt takes up the
matter of the Prairie Oil and Gas COM
pany. which has had no bearing on the
points contained In Bryan's letter, and
argues that Governor Haskells action
in stopping legal proceedings begun
by the attorney general of Oklahoma
demonstrates conclusivey that he was
controlled by the great corporation to
which the Oklahoma company was
subsidiary"
Calls Him "Unfit"
After contrasting Mr.. Bryan's defense
of Governor Haskell as against Judge
Taft's reputation of Senator Foraker
IN connection with Mr.. Hearsts charges
against the Ohio senator, the president
ittenpts to show what he considers as
Governor Haskellts utter unfitness to
associate with any man anxious to ap-
zeal to the American people on moral
ssue," which he states has been
,l,undantly shown "by other acts OF his
- governor of Oklahoma"
The president condemns Governor
Iaskell's conduct in connection with
he various matters as "disgraceful and
1candalous."
The latter portion of Mr.. Roosevelt's $
long and wordy deliverance is devoted
to a criticism of Mr.. Bryan's plan Tor
regulating the trusts, which ne CHAR
aeterizes as a measure that sounds more
radical than any advocated by the Re
publicans, but which in practice would
not work. Mr.. Roosevelt also takes ad-
