Ambassador to Great Britain Seriously
consIdered-Woodruff, Black and

ny Associated Press.1

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 5.-In connec-
ton with the choice of a successor to
United States Senator Thomas 9. Platt,
whose term will expire March 4, two
names not hitherto much discussed in
this regard came to the front today
and were received with much interest.
That of Secretary of State Root was
most discussed for the reason that he
was mentioned in a dispatch from
Washington today as having the sup
port Of President Roosevelt. The other
is that of Whitelaw Reid, ambassador
to Great Britain and for long time
the editor of the New York Tribune.
Former Lieutenant Governor Wood
ruff, chairman of the Republican state
committee: former Governor Frank s..
Black and Congressman ]. Sloat Fas-
sett are the others most frequently
mentioned in this connection. Mr..
Woodruff, chairman of the Republican
state committee, has never made Sc
cret of his interest in the senatorship
and Mr.. Fassett also has been regard
ed as a more than receptive candidate.
But Governor Black has always told
his friends that since his first and only
experiences as a candidate for senator
in 1905, he has had no interest in the
matter and they believe that before it
comes up as a practical question he
will have indicated his intention to
have no part in the campaign.

ADMIRAL PILLSBURY
WANTS NAVAL BASE
CALLS ATTENTION TO SERIOUS
LACK IN REPORT
Says America Has No Defended Sup
ply Station Either in InsuIar
Possessions or Carib-
bean Sea
IBy Associated Press.I

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-Attention is
strongly invited in the annual report of
Rear Admiral Pillsbury, chief of the
navigation bureau, to the lack of de-
Tended naval base, in either the Ameri-
can insular possessions in the east or
the Caribbean sea.
So important is this question believed
to be that in Admiral Pillsbury's opin-
ion, all appropriations for new improve
ments at naval stations, or for defense
of naval bases in Pearl harbor and at
Guantanamo, for these bases are vital
to our success in war.
There is a renewal of the previous
recommendation that the grade of vice
admiral be revived. 1t is proposed that
five officers of this rank be authorized.
Admiral Pillsbury thinks it due the
services and the country that the COM
manders in charge of our Atlantic and
Pacific fleets should have at least this
rank.
Prospects are now that under the
present system there will be an excess
of graduates from the naval academy,
and the recommendation is made that
the period of nomination of midship-
men be extended from four to six years
with a view to reducing by one-third
the number promoted to ensigns.

SEATTLE. Wash, Nov. 5.-Loggers
and mill men in the viciniay of Mount
Vernon are preparing to arm them
selves and violently oppose the posse
now securing the woods in search of
the kidnaper who. October 25, tied z.
G.. English well-to-do logger of Mount
Vernon, to a tree in the woods and
forced him to write a note for $4,000

ing and handbills offering a reward
of $3.50 for the capture of the kidnaper
reached Seattle this morning. II. g.
McDermott, with two Cuban blood
hounds, reached Mount Vernon yes
terday morning and began work at

safely hidden.
Sheriff Charles Harmon, in charge of
the posse, has ordered a watch on all
loggers and mill men in the vicinity

BRYAN SENDS TAFT
HEARTY GREETING
SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE is
COURTEOUS IN REPLY
President-Elect Receives commoner's
Congratulations While Addressing
Women's Foreign Mission
airy Conference
rRv Asrociated PresaI

CINCINNATI, Nov. 5.-"Please ac-
cept congratulations and best wishes
for the success of your administration.
"W. J. BRYAN"
Il thank you sincerely for your cor
dial and courteous telegram of congrat-
ulation and good wishes.
'WM. H. TAFT"
These messages were today ex-
changed between Lincoln and Cincin-
natl. The message from Mr.. Bryan
came while Judge Taft was addressing
the general conference of the Women 8
Foreign Missionary society of the
Methodist Episcopal church. He re-
ceived the message on his return to
his residence, and answered it at once.
In his address to the women, having
been fatteringly introduced by Bishop
]. c.. Hartzell, Judge Taft gave an en-
thusiastic commendation of foreign
mission work. His experience In the
Far East, he said, had taught him the
value of this work in uplifting those
people, and he commented upon the ele-
waiting effect of Christianity and espe-
cially upon the heather women.
In the Philippines, Judge Taft as
serted, the present degree of success in
civilization and government was made
possible through the influence Of Chris
tianity.
The speaker was warmly and enthus-
iastically received by the members of
the conference. Each had provided
herself with small American flag.
The presence of Judge Taft was the
signal for a pretty demonstration. AT
the end of his speech he was over
wheImed with personal congratulations
on his success at the polls.
Judge Taft tonight will be the hon
ored guest at the twenty-ninth annual
dinner of the Commercial club, to be
held at the Queen City club. Judge
Taft has been a member of this ex-
elusive organization for fifteen years,
and his presence tonight is to be made
much of as a local celebration.

NEGRO FAILS TO WIN IN
ATTACK ON CONSTITUTION

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 5.-Judge
Golf handed down an opinion in the
United States court today in the case
of John w. Brickhouse, a negro,
against C. T. Brooks and William Jes-
sup, election judges of Norfolk county,
in which the validity of the new Vir-
ginia constitution was attacked on ac-
count of the failure of the members of
the constitutional convention to take
an oath to uphold the federal consti-
tuition. Brickhouse contended the old
constitution stood and that he had been
Illegally deprived of his right to vote.
The court held that Brickman's con-
tention was without merit and that as
the new constitution had been declared
valid by the Legislature and the gov
ernor, it was in fact the constitution
OF Virginia.

DANGER OF LOCK JAW
RESULT OF FOURTH
Many Deaths Occur From
Deadly TetanUS.

Along with the coming of the
Fourth, parents are worried over
the possibilities of fatalities from
the use of fireworks and firearms.
When it is stated that 1872 death have
occurred in the last five years in
this country from injuries following
the explosion of blank cartridges only,
the magnitude of the danger is seen.
Tetanus, or as it is more commonly
known, lockjaW, is generally due to
powder burns. The disease is caused
by bacillus or germ that exists abun-
dantly in street dirt, especially in
and around stables. AS long as it
is exposed to the air the germs are
inactive, but when forced under the
skin or buried in the flesh, as in the
wounds from percussion caps, blank
cartridges, rusty nails, and the like,
thus excluding the air, the germ
gets busy and the most virulent poison
known is produced, resulting in lock-
jaw.
Wounds of the kind named should
be thoroughly cleansed at once and
given prompt attention by physi-
clan.
While the fireworks are not such a
feature on the Fourth as in more
northern states, there is always good
deal of the use of firearms, both of
the blank and real cartridge variety.
Especially in the former is there op-
portunity for the deadly tetanus to
get in its work with the small boy.
