'CONVENTIONITIS' ATTACKS
COLORADO ASSEMBLY Y

DENVER, Sept. 13. - Convention
tits" a disorder of the body polite,
has attacked the general assembly Of
Colorado, sitting here in special ses-
sion to enact legislation promised in
the Democratic state platform of 1908,
and as a result the assembly suffers
from total paralysis, which, political
sawbones declare, can be avoided only
by the Democratic state convention,
which meets here tomorrow morning.
The legislation demanded at the spe-
cial session included radical measures
among them the initiative and referen-
dunn, direct primary and bank guar

wing of the Democratic majority in the
legislature With the approach of the
state convention action on measures
remaining to be passed slowed down

expulsion by hiding. Saturday night
the police made an excursion in the
suspected quarters of the city and
captured twenty eight Jews. A sim

TRAINS CROSS $4,000,000
CUTOFF AT DQMBART0N
Fast Passenger Service to Be Es-
tabIiShed Later

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 13.-The
Southern Pacific railroad yesterday
inaugurated a freight service over the
Dumbarton bridge, which crosses the
southern end of San Francisco bay.
The bridge is a steel structure, with
double tracks, 1900 feet in length. To-
gether with the cutoff line, which runs
from Newark in Alameda county, to
Redwood City, in San Mateo county,
it cost $4,00O,00o.
The cutoff is primarily for freight
passage, and will carry all northwest
ern and eastern shipments into and
out of San Francisco. The service will
be more convenient and rapid than
the ferrying of freight across the bay,
which has been the practice up to the
present.
Later it is intended to run certain
passenger trains over the bridge.
This. it is expected, will provide the
fastest service from Sacramento to
San Francisco when the new line from
Sacramento to Newark is completed.

WOUNDED SAILOR is BRAVE
rAssociated Press1

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.-The
story of the adventures of Charles
Bern, sailor on the steamer Farallon,
which was wrecked in Arctic seas at
the end of last winter, has just been
brought to San Francisco by Adolph
Hackmeier, census agent Of Alaska.
Bern was left alone with the wreck
on the beach, tramped far in dis
heartening search for a settlement;
wounded himself with a gun and suf-
fered untold agonies; reached an In
dian came by drifting in an open boat;
then, as he lay sick almost to death
among the Indians, he was rescued by
the census man and carried through
blizzards to where white folk live
After the wreck the rest of the crew
took a crazy skiff and rowed in rough
sea for Kodiak island. BY good for
tune they reached shore. But Bern
had refused to take the risk. Alone he
set off down the coast with shotgun
and pack. once as he stumbled the
gun went off and shot away two fin
gers of his left hand. Blood poisoning
set in and his arm swelled painfully.
He found a dilapidated skiff on the
beach and put to sea in it about thirty
miles from the native village of Kat
mai. He managed to keep the boat
afloat and was blown into Katmai
famished, almost naked and with his
left arm swollen to the shoulder.
INDIANS AID SAILOR
About an hour before this Hackmeier
had left Katmai for Cold Bay. Indians
brought him back. Seeing that Bern
was in a critical condition from blood
poisoning, Hackmeier decided to take
him to Cold Bay, even though he had
not enough provisions for his own
party. With Bern tied to sled they
had a terrible struggle with snowdrifts
and blizzards on the journey of 12o
miles. Hackmeier thus describes their
first night out:
1--WE camped in a rainstorm and
nearly froze to death. Bern's hand
and shoulder panied him so that he
moaned all night. We were very short
of food, but managed to shoot some
grouse in the morning and l made him
some soup. He was almost helpless
and 1 had to tie him to the sled and
follow with my guide on snowshoes.
1t was hard mushing and 1 was afraid
we would never get out"
Hackmeier himself suffered great
hardships before his rescue of Bern.
He once spent two nights on the noun
tains in a blizzard without food or
fire.

New York and the Income Tax

The state assembly OF New York yes
terday voted on the legislative Joint reso-
luton ratifying the income-tax amend
ment to the constitution, the vote stand
Ing "a In favor and &c against the pro-
posed change. Under the rules of the
legislature measure requires IS votes,
or majority Of the assembly, for its
passage. and thus the joint resolution
failed by 2 votes. Three members of
the assembly who have been pledged to
support the amendment were absent from
the session. and in order to secure their
votes another effort will be made to lay
the resolution before the assembly. Mean
while the advocates of the income tax
declare that the resolution has been actu-
ally passed, claiming that under the leg
isiative rules resolution. as differentiated
from bill. can be passed by a majority
or the assemblymen voting. They take the
ground that resolution for the ratifca-
ton OF proposed constitutional amend
ment should have no different treatment
from that given to any other resolution. It
is hardly likely, however. that this view
will prevail, for IL the amendment were
ratified by the New York legislature on
the basis Of such a vote in the lower
house and the New York ratification
should carry the amendment into the con-
stitution. the validity of the entire pro-
cedure would be subject to impeachment.

mental law it is necessary to observe the

Dust and Disease.
From the Newark New,

The dust nuisance in Newark yesterday
was terrific Clouds of dirt from the lit
tered streets were hurled through the air
and carried into stores, factories and
homes. Some relief could have been Sc
cured had the streets been sprinkled or
flushed, but nothing OF the sort was done.
The health authorities who are so in
terested In the suppression OF tuberculosis
ought to be interested in this neglect to
suppress dust. one of the breeders of IT.
With the arrival of spring, however. there
seems to be letting up in the fight
against the great white plague. The anti
splitting ordinance has apparently been
forgotten. The good start OF short time
ago. when a number of arrests we're made.
and the announcement heralded that the
regulation must be strictly complied with.
has not improved the conditions very mo-
ticeably Newark is not the only place
where anti-spitting ordinances have be-
come dead letters. Statistics prepared by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of tuberculosis show that
anti-spitting ordinances and regulations in
more than five-eighths OF the cities and
towns of the country are not enforced as
they should be.
