of the Democracy in the next national
campaign. William Jennings Bryan is
not seriously considered, and even his
most devoted fri:nds doubt the wis

Of New York; Gov. Harmon, Of Ohio;
President Woodrow Wilson, Of Prince,
ton, and former Gov. Francis, Of Mis-
souri,, all have adherents:
At the present time Gov. Harmon
appears to be in most favor as a Presi-
Dental possibility. Southern Demo-
Gratis in Congress as rule are more
favorable to his candidacy than they
are to any other vet suggested. There
was much Harmon talk on the oeca-
sion of the Governors conference in
Washington in December. He made a
good impression. Much will depend OIL
the State campaign in Ohio. If Gov.
ernor Harmon is reelected this fall
his chances for the nomination will
be advanced almost to a certainty, say
his rooters among the Southern Dem
ocrats.
Representative Burleson. of Texas,
made a quiet canvass of the Southern
Democrats in Congress just after the
Governors conference. He discovered

DETECTIVES
HELPER DISCHARGED,

Arrested yesterday while working for
a county detective. Samuel Sonkin, rs
years old, of I'll Prince street, was ar
raigned before Judge Hahn in the First
Criminal Court today. The man was
discharged. Sonkin was employed by
Detective Slutzsky. of the prosecutors
office. t. collect evidence in the case
against Max ~Klinghofer, who is held
for the death of Israel Goldberg. As
Goldberg's body was being removed
from Holes morgue a large crowd col
lected. Sonkin was mingling among
them. endeavoring to find witnesses for
the State.
Patrolman Sickel, of the First Pre-
cinct, who had been sent to investigate
the gathering, ordered the crowd to
move. He says tina Sonkin refused
to move and defied him to move him.
He placed Sonkin under arrest n
as he was taking him to the police
box Slutzsky came along, and showing
his badge asked that the prisoner be
released because he was working for
the State. Sickel did not think he
had a right to release him and re-
fused, saying, so Slutzsky alleges, that
he did not care If he was working for
President Taft. At the police station
Sonkin was paroled to appear today.

Harry Castlebaum. OF Perth Amboy,

lery In Perth Amboy, had brought I'M
stamped liquor from their distillery into

dence presented was that of the officer
who made the arrest. He swore that
he had put his finger into a bucket OF
liquid, which he alleged he had seer
the Castlebaums take from the distil-
lery, and that the liquid tasted like
high proof moon shine
Commissioner Bigelow held that abb
so1utely no proof of the guilt of the &C.
cused was presented. Charles Hood,

KAISER NOT TRYING
TO DEFY AMERICA
ON THE ISTHMUs
Right Of United States to Su-
pervise Nicarauguan Affairs
MOI Denied.

BERLIN, July 13.-The Kaiser was
angry today over the report that Ger
many intended to disregard the Mon
roe doctrine in Nicaragua, and branded
as untrue any attempt to defy the Uni
ted States policy In Central and South
American countries The Foreign Office
declared that Germany had no inten-
ton Of intervening in any way In
Nicaraguan affairs.
Special dispatches received here from
washington and other American cities
reported that the German Foreign
Office had issued a statement that
Germany refuses to recognize any
right on the part of the United States
to supervise her diplomatic relations
with other countries, Central and South
American countries In general and
Nicaragua in particular"
When this report was placed before
the Foreign ONCE 1t was given an am
official declared angrily. had been is
sued by hat department or any
other department of the German gov
eminent. He affirmed that nc declara-
ton of such a nature could be made,
because there was absolutely no ne
c~essity for it, and that, therefore, any
thing published in such a sense was
pure invention.
German government officials are
greatly wrought up by the attempts
made to have this country appear in
a role of antagonism to the United
States, when, on the contrary, it has
beer the desire of the government to
develop both the commercial and dip
lomatic relations with America.
The present situation has resulted
from the publication of a letter from
Emperor William to DR.. Madriz,
President of the de facto government
of Nicaragua. In several quarters ap-
parently the significance of this letter
has been m~isjudged, and It became
necessary In order that a wrong con-
stfuction might not be placed Upon 1t,
to issue a statement, through the For
eign Office. explaining that the letter
was merely a formal acknowledgment
of a notice received from Madriz In
April last of his election to the presf-
dency.

/ R. SEES HUGHES,
THEN ANNOUNCES
I'm FOR BEST MAN
Gives First IntimatiOn of His Pc.
siti0n as to Republican Gu
bernatoriaI Nominee.

OYSTER BAY. N. Y, July 1s.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt gave his first indication
Of his position in respect to the nomi-
nation Of a Republican candidate for
governor of New York this fall. Colonel
Roosevelt in an interview said:
MY position in regard to the gov
ernorship this fall is this: / want %
find the best man for the offce-the
man who is most acceptable to the
rank and file of the Republican party
and the Independent voters. I intend
to do everything In my power to see
that such a man is elected,
Colonel Rooseveft's indication of his
position, made less than an hour after
the departure for New York of Gov
ernor Hughes, Is taken as a significant
sidelight on the conference between the
Governor and the colonel. While both
men refused this morning to disclose
the precise subject matter of THEN
conference, it Is believed from the col
onel's attitude hat 1t was decided that
Mr.. Roosevelt would take an active
personal part IN regard to the nomina-
ton Of a candidate for governor.
Governor Hughes left at 10 O'Clock
for New York In the automobile OF
| William r. Wilcox. He said that he
would meet his military secretary,
Frederick M. Crossett. at the Hotel
Aston, and that they would leave this
afternoon for washington, where the
| governor is to select a house to move
into this fall when he goes on the SUI
prerne Court bench. That was all he
would say
Colonel Roosevelt was smiling con
tentedly when he was seen shortly
afterward.
IT had a delightful visit with Cover.
nor Hughes" said he. I'VE had a mos
interesting talk"
ibid you talk politics with him?" ht
was asked.
The question seemed to amuse him.
'Of course we talked Of political con-
ditions," he replied. what else could
we talk about? We discussed things
which we have been anxious for a long
time to talk Of"
This was all he was willing to say as
to the conference.
1t Is believed here that the name OF
| William Loeb, jr., collector of the port
| of New York, was not taken up at any
length in the Roosevelt-Hughes con
ference. =
Congressman Charles ". Fowler, oil
New Jersey, arrived on the noon train
He said that he had come to take
luncheon with Colonel Roosevelt and tc
continue the discussion OF political con-
ditions which was begun yesterday.

WILL CLOSE EVENING
CLASSES ON WEDNESDAYS.
Board OF Education Grants Re
quest of Hebrew Residents.

AT the request of the Hebrew resi-
dents of the Morton Street, Belmont
and Thirteenth Avenue School districts
the Board Of Education decided last
night to have evening school sessions
In the three schools named close here
after on Wednesday instead of Friday
nights.
The change is temporary only, put
may be made permanent, If, as claimed
by it's advocates, 1t will increase the
attendance in these schools. Almost
30 per cent of the Morton Street and
SO per cent. of the, Thirteenth Avenue
Evening School attendance are He
brews, and the majority of the pupils
are absent Friday night because of
their attendance at religious services.
Originally last nights meeting was
intended to dispose of the work OF the
committee on instruction and educa-
tional supplies only, but the members
decided to finish up all the routine
work of the board for the month.
Morton Street was added to the list
of evening schools. and the request of
residents Of the Sussex Avenue School
district to add the eighth grammar
grade to the course Of instruction In
that school was denied for lack of
adequate facilities.
The proposition for establishing
classes for the blind, deaf and dumb
was, after an informal discussion, de-
fered to a subsequent meeting of the
board.
Contracts were awarded to John Null
Inns & Sons, to supply assembly room
chairs at 1872 per hundred, and to the
New Jersey school m Furniture Com
pany to supply teachers desks at s10.45,
adjustable desks at $3.50 and station
cry desks at $3.50 each.
After ~dispes.ng of the routine work
at hand the instruction committee
went on record as an advisory board to
the mayor and Common Council, with
refernce to the Jeffries-Johnson fistic
encounter picture exhibition.
On motion of Commissioner Taylor
the mayor and city fathers will be re-
quested to prohibit any attempt to ex-
hibit moving pictures Of the recent
Aontest. Mr.. Taylor said he could see
mo harm In men attending such an ex-
hibition, but 1t would be demorafzing
Sso far as school children were con-
Sned. His colleagues agreed and the
gsn vas adopted.

Who Lately Returned.

Mayor Hauss1ing arrived at his office
a little earlier h usua this morning,
and one of his first callers was Police
Sergeant Thomas Tracy. The call was
not on police business, as the genial
sergeant is one of that class of public
officials who seldom 1nd it necessary
to call on their superior officers. His
mission was TO present the Mayor with
of the choice specimens Of genuine
blackthorns which he collected on his
recent trip to the Emerald isle for pres

Mayor expressed his appreciation Of
the gift, but 0 the genial sergeant

SWAYZE TAFT'S CHOICE
FOR HIGH BENCH, is REPORT.

According to a dispatch from Bever-
", Mass, 1t was positively asserted
there yesterday that Supreme Court
Justice Swayze, of this State, had been
agreed upon by President Taft to All
the vacancy now existing on the United
States Supreme Court bench.
Neither Justice Swayze or any of his
close friends have received any on

Jersey jurist is held in high esteem
by the President and may be named
unless Secretary OF State Knox should
be chosen as successor to the late
Chief Justice Fuller.
