The Record-Herald says:
:. AS far as Mr. Bruner is concern
ed, he said yesterday that he did not
particularly carefor the job. but that
he really could not discuss his can
didacy, since it didn't exist How
ever, his friend, W. j. Phillips, secre-
tary of the. Elgin association. talked
freely enough Of the situation, as he
saw it. He said that the voluntary
retirement of Secretary I. e. Brown,
with whose administrative work the
downstate organizations were out of
sympathy, had not suff1ced to bring
about peace.
Summed up, the demands of the
downstate societies are as follows:
80. A more economic administra-
ton of the Chicago office.
20. The devotion of more time to
field work downstate.
80. A larger representation of
downstate men on the state executive
committee.
Chicago and Cook county, they
say, have been enjoying altogether
too many benefits and have been DOM
mating the Situation.
'Mr. Brown said yesterday that his
former assistant, Mr.. Bruner, had
been steadily at work for a period of
two years undermining his influence
and alternating the downstate organi-
cations. At the last state convention
Mr.. Bruner and l.. l.. Mcdonald, he
said, assisted by clique, had pre-
cured the election of E. L. Chaplin of
Springfield as president.
On Reviewing Body.
Mr.. Chaplin had them appointed
on a committee to review the report
of the executive committee 1t al
Etered the executive committees re-
port to the extent of recommending
the appointment of special commit
tee of five to review the entire organ
ization of the state. The special COM
mittee, Mr.. Brown added, not only
approved the conduct of his office, but
increased his power by limiting the
initiative of the department secre-
taries.
"A short time afterward there APP
peared in an Elgin paper paragraph
which was copied all over the state.
Although Mr.. Bruner lives at Elgin,
he denies that he inspired the para
graph. 1t reads:
AS a result of recent action TAX
en- by the state executive committee
of the Y. Nj. G. A. of Illinois, there is
more than likely to be a division in
the state work and a new state or
ganization formed, with Chicago left
outside. If this is done, A. NJ. Bru-
ner of this city, who has been assist
ant secretary for the past % years,
undoubtedly will head the new organ
ziation, which will be by far the big
end of the state work
Mr.. Phillips said over the tele-
phone yesterday that it was the opin-
ion of the downstate organizations
that the $4,000 spent for office ex.
penses in Chicago every year could
be cut in half.

is being expended the state office i.

$4,000 PALACE Of HORSES
BURNS ON b0WNE'S ESTATE
High Priced Animals, Including $4,000 Stallion and
Blue Ribbon Dogs, Saxed by ex- Commodore's EN-
ployes in the Teeth of the Flames.

NEW YORK, Oct. "a palace
for horses. the 100000 stable and
carriage house on Frederick G..
B0urne's Indian Hall estate at Oak
dale, l.. l., was destroyed by fire.
Horses of blue blood and high val
ne, including a $4,000 imported
stallion, were imperiled, as were
dogs with which the former yacht
club commodore had won show
prizes; but all were got out in
safety by the army Of employees
on the estate.
The rescuers of the animals,
though they worked swiftly, had a
race with the flames. Hot race"
was no figure of speech there. The
last carriage barely had been
dragged out by painting men when
a sheet of flame swept across the
doorway.
AS the flames swept the copper
.sheathed dome of the barn it be-
came red hot an dglowed like a
monster incandescent globe. When
1t toppled into the ruins the sparks
shot up as from huge flower pot
in fireworks display.
The burned barn was one of the
finest in the country. 1t was cir
cular and covered a large area.
Mosaic panels of marble and brick
were in the floor and on the walls.

BLOODHOUNDS
FOR FARMERS
Aqriculturalists See No Other Way
to Catch Chicken Thieves

PITTSBURG, Oct. 9.-Some of
the farmers of Jefferson county
whose chicken cools have been
raided have Clipped in" 5000 to-
ward the purchase of a pair of
bloodhounds. The pair which they
have decided to buy is priced at
$3.50, and active campaigning is on
to raise the balance of the neces-
sary amount.
So surely is their faith pinned on
the ability of the hounds to track
'em down" that Constable William
Gawlas, who brought a prisoner to
the jail, declared: 'The the chick
en- thieves who have been making
the lives of the farmers in Jeffer-
son township miserable try to get
ahead Of us when we get those
bloodhounds 70 working they will
haze to use airships.''
Gawlas did not state what action
might be taken by the farmers if
the depredators continue to pursue
their avocation as aviators.

NEW YORK IN A DAY

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-Seven
transatlantic liners arriving Sun
day brought S29S passengers from
Europe, the greatest number ever
landed in New York in a single
day. More than $50 customs in
spectors were on duty all day to
inspect the baggage.
OF the total, 4182 were cabin
passengers, 4116 steerage. Hud-
sons Half Moon would have re-
quired III years to bring over the
same number, and an ordinary
vestibuled train between New York
and San Francisco would require a
year and four months to transport
them to the western coast.

Solomon raised his levy of 10000
