CLERK FIGHT WAKES
Smiths Friends ReIieUe As
sembly WM Re-elect Him.

state Chairman Woodruff. who returned
yesterday from his camp in the Adron-
dscks, where he went election week. said
yesterday at state committee headquarters
that he was sorry there was likely to be a
fight over the Assembly clerkship.
The friends OF Ray r. Smith. the present
clerk, say that Smith will have all twelve
Republican Assembymen from Kings. and
that Assemblyman James A. Francis. who
is backed by AssembIyman William N.
Bennett for the place has little chance Of
winning. When asked about the contest
yesterday the state chairman said:
II am very sorry that there is to be
contest over the cIerkship. A. controversy
within the party is To be deprecated This
is a matter for the Assembly caucus 10 set
tie and the state committee has not taken
part in It and presumably viii not Neither
side has appealed to me or to the state
committee for my support"
IL the Francis men find that Smith has a
lead on them. they may try after reaching
Albany 20 keep the clerkship matter out OF
caucus. This can be done. il is said. by
asserting that the retirement Of Smith is
moral question rather than a political one.
Another possibility is that ali the members
who have espoused direct nominations will
be I'm line for Francis.
Assemblyman Bennett SAYS that the
Francis men have only begun to fight and
that Smith cannot possibly endure a long
battle
'Assemblyman Phillips. Of Allegany
County, was in town the latter part OF last
week with RAY Smith," said Mr.. Bennett
yesterday at his otf1ce. smith was here
locking after his fences. especially I'm Kings
County. II is of no use for him To see the
Republican Assemblymen from this county.
There are fifteen of them and they are for
Francis to a man. There will be ninetyivs
Republicans in the caucus If they all go In.
Forty-eight will control. We shall start the
fight for Francis with "A block of fifteen
from this COUNT. I have heard that the
five Republicans from Erie County are for
Francis. We have reason 20 believe that
We shall have two from oneida. and We are
hopeful that among the forty members
around the state pledged To direct nominal
tions there will be enough 10 vote for Fran
els and the Governors reform legislation 10
elect Francis clerk
Mr, Bennett Is preparing a second letter
70 members of the Legislature. telling them
why Smith should not succeed himself and
asking members not TO pledge themselves
to Smith. When asked II he had talked
with Representative Parsons. Mr.. Bennett
said:
NO. but ! know that the New York Re
publicans will be for Francis. The one
doubtful element OF the situation is the at
titude of state Chairman Woodruff. No
one seems 10 know at present whether he
and his friends in Kings County will be for
Smith or for Francis
If Smith goes into the fight short Of
clear majority he will he beaten" said Mr..
Bennett.

BOATS TO BREAK ICE
Used by american Company in
the Hudson.

The trial of the American Ice Company
on an indictment charging an attempt 20
create a monopoly entered the NTH week
when IL was resumed before Justice
Wheeler I'm the Supreme Court yesterday.
The fire in the courthouse basement at one
time threatened the great quantity of rec
ord books which have been produced by
the defence under subpoena
The first witness called was Henry
Wendt. who, with relatives, controlled 20
per cent Of the stock Of the Dealers Hy-
geis Ice Company. an independent concern.
which was taken over by the Merchants
Union Ice Company in 1915. The witness
said il i'm had condition financially
well as mechanically at the time Of the
sale
Henry Q. Harrison. an auditor Of the
American company. who followed n wit
ness. had been subppnaed 10 produce GER
tain bills and vouchers showing payments
by the American Ice Company TO the Cor
rell Steamboat Company. Mr.. Osborne said
the documents produced were not the ones
he desired. The attorney for the prosecu-
tion wished to show that the American
company employed these boats 20 break up
the ice OF the independent companies in the
Hudson River. After argument by counsel
this line OF examination was abandoned
temporarily.
Mr.. Osborne then started on another tack
90 get this evidence before the court. and
called several witnesses 20 tell what they
had seen these boats do on their trips up
the river. All the witnesses thus exam
ined said they had seen the boats break
ing through the ice between Rondout and
Coeymsns. but none would admit that he
Rad heard this was done under orders from
the officers of the American Ice Company
until James W. Scott took the witness
chair
Scott said he had gone up III. river in
the winter Of 1870 with two boats. acting
on orders from Vice President Schoon-
maker. and was told To break up the ice
gorge that had formed near there. Two at
tempts were made 70 break the gorge. but
the boats started 10 leak and the attempt
was given up.
The witness said that this was regular
proceeding. and the independents had the
same privilege. If they cared TO pay for
the boats.
The trial will b resumed to-day.

An article on The Witnesses for Dr Cock
by Maurice Francis Egan. American Minis

number Of THE Rosary Maya zine. The
article Is Of interest for its quotations from
knud Rasmussen. the explorer. who exam
ined Esquimaus Of the tribe 20 which DR..
Cooks companions belonged. and on whose
testimony the Danes of Greenland relied
I'm part IN accepting the explorers narrative
Rasmussen is explicit as 20 the Esqui-
msus' knowledge Of maps. which has been
questioned by Dr. Cooks supporters IN
challenging the story which I-took a -shoo
and A-pel-lsh tod - Commander Peary's
party. Rasmussen SAYS the Esquimaus are
very experienced i'm finding their where
sbouts by means Of maps" and tells OF hav-

own map the route which I-took-a-shoo and
A-pel-lah had said they followed With Dr.
Cook. or the polar dash Rasmussen says:
The auxiliary sledges left Dr. Cook and
his two companions only after they had
reached the polar ice and there steered
panions were then well aware that they
went toward the pole They knew the di-
Tection well from the countless expeditions
Of Pesrv. IN which almost all the men of
the tribe had participated.
Rasmussen discredits the story which
tho two Esquimaus told 70 Commander
Peary on the following grounds:
I do not know much about Pearv's re-
pert except that he insists that Cook has
not been far from land. And that is nom

few davs' journey from land. why should
they have come 10 Cape Sparho for the
