FAIRBANKSS NEW MOVE.
His Friends Talking for "the Old Ticket
Roosevelt and Fairbanks.

Vs. WASHINGTON, April 22.-Followers Of
yice-President Fairbanks are showing a
tendency TO encourage a movement for the
nomination Of what is designated i'the old
tick ct. that is Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
If Mr.. Taft should be chosen for first place
Mr.. Fairbanks would be out Of the running
for the vioe-Presidential nomination on
account OF the traditional rule not to select
both candidates on the ticket from the
same section Of the country. Any con
certed action on the part Of the strong
Fairbanks faction to put 'the old ticket
in the field would be a serious loss to the
so-called allies, who in spite Of tbsir present
opposition to Mr.. Taft would far prefer
10 have him chosen than see Mr., Roosevelt
again lead the party in q Presidential o n
test.
These circumstances, now practically adj
mitted. are giving conservative Republican
leaders much food for thought, Their fears
that the convention might be Stampeded
for Roosevelt by the radical element had
been allayed, but they are now confronted
by the danger Of desertion in a quarter which
was expected TO stand firm against any pro-
Roosevelt tendency,

cate a victory in practically every county

the organization is virtually pledged to
Bryan. but the support which his followers
there ma count upon from other sections
is so scattering as TO make control OF the
convention for Bryan improbable.
In Mercer county the organization, which
is opposed to Bryan, is in complete con-
troll. The situation ia said TO be similar
in practically every southern county. This,
it is said, will leave former United States
Senator James Smith, Jr., Of Newark,
master Of the convention. Smith is opposed
to Bryan.
He made known to-day that he would
accept a position as delegate at large to the
national convention. A plan is on foot
TO oppose the selection Of Robert Davis
Of Hudson county as a delegate at large,
and the SUCCESS OF Mr.. Smith at the prima-
Ties makes it not improbable that his will be
attempted unless a truce is patched up
before next Tuesday. Davis has declared
for Bryan and there Is a fight Of long stand
ing on between him and Smith.

WASHINGTON. April Ex-senator Simmons
Of North Carolina, reckoneI as one OF the
most astute political managers in Demo
cratic national politics, Is being groomed
for the Craftsmanship OF the Democratic

Taggart Of Indiana,
The friends Of the Presidential boom OF
Senator Charles A. Culberson OF Texas
are behind the movement TO secure Senator
Simmons's election to the Craftsmanship
OF the Democratic committee. and the
agitation in Mr.. Simmons's favor is re-
garded % a distinct indication that the
Democratic Senators from the South gem
orally who ara in sympathy with 1t are
opposed to the nomination Of William j..
Bryan at Denver next July and will fight
him. The Simmons Craftsmanship move
ment therefore may develop the first step
in the fight against Bryan in the greater
one TO follow against his nomination in
convention and viii probably be used as
a means to try the pro and ant-Bryan
strength
Mr.. Bryan's candidate for the chair
manship Of the committee is former Senator
Richard +. Pcttigrew Of South Dakota and
New York. When Pettigrew was In the
Senate he was classed as a Republican
Populist and a vicious trust buster. Since
leaving the Senate and changing his party
politics, however, Pettigrew has become
more or lees reoonciled TO the 'moneyed
interests" which he formerly fought with
such activity and rancor.
Senator Simmons attracted particular
attention as a shrewd political manager
when he assumed the lead Of the Democrats
in North Carolina several years ago and
wrested the State from the control OF the
Republican Populists who were led in
coalition by ex-senator Jeter c. PritohArd.
now a Federal Circuit Judge in the South.

Hospital Because Of Food.
Six Of the eight doctors Of the Long Island
College Hospital In Henry street. Brook
lyn, one Of the largest hospitals In that
city, went on strike yesterday afternoon.
The reasons they alleged were poor food
and d~Iscourteous treatment accorded them
by DR.. Richard Z. Shaw. the superintend!
emit. This left two doctors TO look after $50
patients. The latter declared that they
would have gone out toe but for pending
surgical operations.
To make matters worse II Is said that
there is disoord among the eighty nurses
and fifty attendants left behind for
reasons like those Of the striking doctors.
Or, Shaw was acting a. house surgeon
last night and Edward Talmage, the as
sistant superintendent, vas riding the
ambulance.
According to the story current last night
complaints have been going to the super
intendent for a long time about the food,
and at yesterdays luncheon the butter
came 10 for particular discussion. Finally
the eight doctors marched to DR.. Shaw's
ONCE with 9 sample Of il, and II is said
that he told them to get out In no uncer-
tain language, Later he sent word that
none could 20 back 10 work until they saw
him. When they inquired for the super
intsndent they were told that he had gone
out for dinner,
DR.. Shaw returned At ( o'clock and the
doctors demanded an apology, but when
none was forthcoming II is said that the

Following the mention Of Dustin Farnum,
the actor. az an intimate friend Of Mrs.
Howard Gould, In BE answer fled by How
ard Gould 10 Mrs. Gould's suit for . separa-
ton, came the announcement yesterday
that Justice Bowling, IN the Supreme Court,
had named NJ. Linn Bruce a. referee To try
the suit Of a. Johnston Famum against
D. Lancy Fanum.'
Ernest X. Coulter, formerly q reporter,
now a clerk OF the Children's Court, is coun-
sci for A, Johnston Farnum,' while D.
Frank Lloyd, Assistant United States Dis
tiot Attorney, Is attorney for ID. Lancy'
Farnum.' On the consent OF both lawyers
the order appointing former Justice Bruce
as referee was entered I'D filed, and II
fails to disclose anything more than the
facts Of the consent and the appointment.
The lawyers were silent.
A friend Of Dustin Farnum said last night
that he was married 10 Agnes Johnston
twelve years ago, and for several years
they played together. About four years
ago they agreed to separate, and they
have not seen each other since. Mrs.
Farnum has not been playing in recent
years.
1t is a popularity Of references in divorce
suits nowadays that the orders appointing
the referees no longer disclose the nature
Of the suit. That plan Of drawing such
orders was originated after a law was
passed a couple Of years ago prohibiting
the appointment Of referees TO try unde-
Tended divorce suits.
The law requires that at least a technical
defence be made, in the shape Of an answer
denying the allegations Of the complaint
and the order will then be granted eX parte
on consent Of the attorneys. In this way
a veil Of secrecy is thrown around such

CURRENCY BILL THIS SESSION.
House Leaders for the vreeIand BILL and a
Currency Commission.

WARRINGTON, April 23.-House leaders
have pretty well settled on q plan OF u
rency legislation. Their plan Is TO adopt
the enacting clause Of the Aldrich bill,
but for the rest Of that measur to substi-
tute the bill introduced By Representative
Vreeland Of New York. The amended
measure will then be tackled to q bill pro-
viding for the appointment OF a currency
commission. Thus at one stroke It is In
tended TO provide for laying the ground
work for a general revision OF the banking
system and for emergency money against
possible financial hurries.
II isnot known Just how the Senate leaders
will view this programme. Whatever Sena-
tor Aldnoh thinks about II will have weight
there. 1t Is predicted. however, that the
Clearing House amendment will be 40
oepted by the Senate II II IL 70 drawn a.
10 provide additional safeguards in the issue
OF emergency currency and the member
ship Of the currency commission Is confined
TO Senators and Representatives.
There 10 little difference In effect in the
measures, The Vreeland bill is based on
the Aldrich bill. with an amendment that
permits a number Of banks TO get together
and form a clearing house which may issue
certificates against securities Of the banks.
These clearing house certificates may DO
deposited against emergency circulation.
More than likely the bill will 60 to con-
ference after II reaches the Senate and
there an agreement is almost certain.
Those in position TO know, especially
on the House side Of the Capitol, say posi-
lively that a currency bill following closely
the lines Of the Aldrioh bill will be enacted
into Law before the session ends.
