PORT SURVEYOR cLARksoN
WILL NOT BE REAPPoINTED.
Announcement by Secretary Mac
Veagh-Office Pays 5000 a Year.

Washington, Nov, 22-The positive
announcement that Gen. James S.
Clarkson surveyor of the port of New
York, viii not be reappointed to that
office was made by Secretary of the
Treasury MacVeagh today. The de-
cision against the retention of the for
Mer political warrior from Iowa in one
OF the choicest billets in the federal
service in New York state will not
surprise those familiar with political
conditions In that state. Secretary
MacVeagh already has General Clark
sons successor in mind, but is not
as yet prepared to make any an
nouncement.
When Secretary MacVeagh was in
the White house on the first day of
his official career and there he met
Timothy Woodruff. former lieutenant
governor of New York, who demanded
General Clarkson's official scalp, it is
said. The president was not Inclined
to acquiesce in this demand, but it
was definitely understood at that time
that Mr.. Clarkson would not continue
in office beyond January / nextG
The trouble is said to have its orr
gin in the desire OF the upper New
York state republican politicians for
patronage. The Office pays $4,000 a
year. General Ciarkson was for years
one Of the most notable factors in the
republican party. When he was ap-
pointed. to the New York Office in
1902 by President Roosevelt his nomi-
nation was confirmed only after con-
siderable delay in the senate.

Mrs. Snowden was something of
disappointment to the members Of the
women's suffrage movement here. In
a lecture tonight at the Masonic tenn
pie she declared that American wo-
men could not entertain the movement
seriously. She explained that it was

more men than women in this country

missal Of the suit brought by the Bal
timore & Ohio and other railroads TO
enjoin the commission from enforcing
its order Of June Z, 1909, whereby II
established a tariff rate on big vein

and Elk River regions In Maryland to
Atlantic coast points in other states.
The decision is also important TO the
shippers OF coal in the Somerset re-
gion In Pennsylvania and the Austin
Newburg fields in West Virginia. as
well as the Georges Creek and. Elk
River interests In Maryland. These
three fields have been in sharp COM
petition for a long time for the New
England and other eastern trade. The
big vein coal. from Maryland was
charged q higher freight rate when
shipped beyond the Chesapeake and
Delaware capes than the coal for the
other two fields and the interstate
commerce commission reduced the
rate. making It uniform with the rate
from the Pennsylvania and West Vir-
Nginia regions

Tampa, Fla, Nov. 2z.-Brief wireless

In view of the fact that the brief

that it was positively ascertained that
the Nourmahal is not at San Juan, w.

said:
Absolutely no truth in the report

hope of getting from the operator there

drunken negroes in the eastern see
ton of the city Saturday night. quiet
prevails here tonight and the officials
believe they have the situation well
in hand.
Negroes Escaped.
The negroes who did the shooting
made their escape and this probably
accounts for the fact that further dis
orders were not recorded yesterday
and today. Late today one of the
negfc IS charged with the shooting was
arrested and lodged in Jail Three
others for whom warrants were issued
have not been apprehended.
Deputy and Nine Men Wounded.

got within range of his companions
shots when the attack was made upon
the officers.
Sheriff Long went to the scene with
a posse armed with repeating rifles.
The negroes had fled, however, and the
sheriff and his men directed their at
tention to a systmatic search of the
negro section for the guilty ones.

Positive Assurance Lacking.
Tampa, Nov. 22.-Positive assurance
that the yacht Nourmahal, with John
Jacob Astor. the owner, and his party
aboard, is at San Juan. Porto Rico, is

mahal, he said, and did not notice any
thing to indicate that the yacht had
suffered from her experience in the
storm.
