CAMPAIGN MANAGERS ANSWER
NO ANSWER.

The discussion that has followed
the publication of Judge Manns thir-
years-old letters TO General Ma
hone has set the political veterans
Ia digging into their memories, and
has sent the recruits TO the record
files. Up to this time the only state
nents from the Mann headquarters
Il. connection with the letters have
Gene from Col. James Mann, cam
;.aign manager for his uncle. and the
effect OF what has been said is that
at the time Judge Mann favored and
supported General Malone the latter
was a Democrat. and. therefore. the
publication OF the letters will have no
effect whatever upon the present cam
paign.
Investigating the truth OF this as
serticn, the Richmond Times Dispatch
finds that the Congressional Directory
during General Mahone's term in the
United States senate says: WAS
elected to the United states Senate as
a Readjuster, in the place OF Robert
Il. withers, Democrat. and took his
seat March 4. 1881, serving until
March ;. 1887 The Times Dispatch
comments that 1t is well known
fact that the members OF beth houses
of congress actually write or approve
their biographies. the obvious infer
ence being that nobody should have
known better than the general himself
whether or not he was a Democrat. The
Times Dispatch also quotes the record
at the State capital to show that Gen.
eral Malone was nominated by the
Readjuster caucus and Colonel With
ers by the Democratic caucus. Ma
hone received 40 voters. Withers So,
Wickham. s, and John W. Daniel I.
The Norfolk virginian- Pilot. OF
which General Cameron who was

Readjuster ticket. says that Mahone's
strength in the senate contest con-
sisted Of all the Readjusters and a ma

east for Daniel. and that OF the TWEEN

regular Republican nominee could

summary. the virginia-Pilot saws.
The State fusion was accomplished
IT the election OF General Malone
though he did not give his formal sd
herence 10 the National Republican
party until he took his seat On the
senate year later. The inspres.
s,on conveyed by Mt. Mann's card

CONFERENCE ON THE AuToMo
BILE ORDINANCE.

Various things are 10 De cohaioefSu
when the conference committee under
takes 20 frame an automobile ordi-
nance that will be acceptable to beth
branches OF the city council. The
committeeman will have TO ST as a
court and attempt TO look az the mat
ter from two points OF view. They
must endeayor TO give the automa-
billsts ali possible liberty on the
streets OF the city, and yet the rights
OF the general public must be fully
protected.
Though Il is believed that the board
OF aldermen acted wisely in refusing
10 concur in the amended Fellows or
dlnance as adopted by the common
council, when the measure Is taken
up in conference Il will not do TO ar
cept seriously all of the objections
that may be made TO various sections
by the automobile owners. Like every
body else, the autoists will be in
clined to see things from their own
standpoint and as people who do not
own machines are, interested in the
matter only in an indirect way. the
committee is liable 10 have consider
ably more evidence and argument In
favor of liberal regulations upon the
operation OF automobiles than for
stringent restrictions. Therefore It
Will be up 10 the committee to act as
Judge advocate in addition TO serving
as a court.
This paper believes that the machine
owners objections to the eight orI
welye-miles speed limit are
entirely reasonable. but 1t cannot
agree that all of the contentious should
be so classed.
Some OF the autoists protest against
the section of the Fellows ordinance
which requires that permit shall De
secured by any one desiring to run
a machine on the streets of the city. |
While this section may net be just
right as 1t stands. some such proyi- |
sion as Il makes is very desirable. |
The argument that to refuse 10 grant
q permit to an owner to operate his
machine is TO confiscate the mans |
property furnishes no legitimate objec-
ticn TO. the requirement.
II the proper authority deems tha.
it would be dangerous to ,he-iives and
limbs OF people generally to allow an
or reckless person to-
drive an automobile on the streets. I'll
is right and proper that that person.
man or woman, should be denied the
privilege of driving on the streets.
even II such a regulation is coniisca-
tory. The public safety is infinitely
more important than the pleasure OF
an automobile owner or tive.
There is another section of the or
dinance to which the autoists object
that seems to be one of the most i'm
portant Of all. That is the clause pro-
viding that any owner or chauffeur
shall lose his or her operating license
upon third conviction OF exceeding !
the speed limit. 1t is claimed that
the revoking of the license would be |
contrary to law. If this is the case, !
then a very heavy fine. the minimum
to BE- not less than s5o, should be pro-
yiied for third offense cases. AS long
as conviction means only a nominaf
fine. some people will not worry al
great deal about keeping within the
speed limit

struct Alrship for Transoceanic Voyage.
New York, Jan. 13.-Lewis Nixon,
the expert engineer and shipbuilder,
has made plans to build the first real
air warship in the country. 1t is to
take form in the Nixon yards, under
his supervision, and the Aerial Navi-
CATION Company of America, with
capital Of s5O, OOO, 900, has been organ

eve expect to start the construc-
ton Of this airship almost Immediate
ly," said Mr.. Nixon. "It will be 700
feet long with Il diamater of 80 feet
and passenger room for 100. Yes. we
will mount some guns, but am not
at liberty to speak of them tonight.
''Besides it's passengers and arma-
ment the ship will be expected to car
ry food and fuel enough for a trip
across the ocean.
''The ship will cost something more
than 81 200. 900. When completed it
will probably weigh 40 tons. 1t has
been most carefully thought out in
every detail by Mr.. Pemington-Air-
ship Pennington, as he is known-and
the shape of the vessel as well as the
arrangement of the motive power and
many other details are original with
him. He has been at work on them
for II years and some of his patents
on features OF this ship We're obtained
- years ago.
1--WE have been working every day
on the design for this ship. have
been asked to act as consulting engi-
neer. Of the personnel of the COM
pany know very little. Mr.. Pen
nington mentioned the names of the
directors, but | have forgotten them.
''Thurlow Weed Barnes, who has
been in connection with Chinese rail
way operations, is mentioned as the
president. but | really know nothing
of the company itself except through
Mr.. Pennington. He told me he had
some very important and wealthy
men in the directorate.
''There is no reason to doubt the
! perfect success of the ship. All of
the principles involved in it's con-
strnction have already been tested
and found feasible. OF course it will
involve gas envelope.
This envelope will be of silk or of
the new type Of linen that has been
found to be practical for this purpose.
and it will he enclosed in one of steel
or aluminium. In fact. we have de-
cided upon aluminium AT today's con
ference rs the lightest and best for
this purpose.
Now. while all the general princi-
pies Of this airship are perhaps not
new most of its features are. There
are many of the same general primci-
pies involved in the construction of
an airshlp as of water ship. In an
airship, however. we must combine
strength with lightness and stability.
Passenger ships? Yes, sir: that
is Mr.. Pennington's plan. | believe.

CLUB WANTS
4 NEW HOME
The Members Asked Views
on Securing Other
Quarters.

Talk of securing new home for the
University Club has been revived and
the matter has already been considered
to such an extent that it has been put
mp to the club members in the form of
circular letter addressed to each and
sent out yesterday asking them to sub
NIT their respective opinions as to four
propositions placed before them for the
proposed new clubhouse.
The matter of securing new quarters
has been up several times in the past,
and at one time negotiations were viz
tually concluded for the lease with the
right of purchase of Haalelea lawn. But
complications developed through uncer-
tainty as to whether or not the Coney
estate would ever be in position to de-
liver good title to the premises, and
the negotiations, therefore, fell through
The four sites the advantages and
disadvantages of the which the mem
bers Of the University Club are asked
Campbell homestead on Emma street,
the lot belonging to the Bishop Estate
on Hotel street near the Y. NJ. c. A.,
and The James property, where the club
is now quartered.
The Coney estate proposes to lease to
the club the lower portion of the Haa-
ieiea lawn premises for twenty five
years at an annual rental of $4,000, and
to give the club $4,000 to be expended
toward the erection of a clubhouse. The
lease is to contain an option to purchase
for $50, 200 the land and improvements
at any time within the twenty FIVE years
that the Coney estate may be in posi-
ton to deliver a good and sufficient
title. The area of the premises is
29,625 square feet.
The price asked by the trustees of
the Campbell Estate for the Campbell
homestead on Emma street is $4,000.
The premises include grounds of about
two and half acres, large residence
IN fairly good repair, an artesian well
with pumping and tank system, and an
Independent electric light plant.
The trustees of the Bishop Estate
offer to sell to the club the lot on Rich
ards street with a frontage of 172 feet
for $4,000. The area of this lot is
26,S05 square feet.
The purchase price asked for the
James property on Hotel street, where
the club is now situated, is also $25. 900.
This lot has frontage of IA feet on
Hotel street and an area of 2l,6O0
square feet. Should the club decide to
take this property it will be necessary
to pull down the main building and
erect new clubhouse, at an estimated
cost of $4,000 The cottages are in
good state of repair.
