WILSON TYPE OF
CANDIDATE TO
WIN, SAYS DAVIS
Hudson and Essex Democratic
Hosts in Friendly Rivalry
at Outings.

Woodrow Wilson is the type of
man that characterized New Jersey
governors during an uninterrupted rule
of thirty years while the Democratic
party ruled, and he is the kind of man
all patriotic Jerseymen want now.'
This Is the terse and positive way In
which Robert Davis expressed his opin-
pending gubernatorial campaign.
1T Is not within my province" mod
estly added the Little Boss" as the
Democratic chieftain of Hudson Is af-
fectionately referred to, Ito anticipate
what the State convention as a whole,
and the Hudson delegation particu-
larly. win do on September Is, but
do know that l am for Wilson, and
believe he will be the unanimous choice
of the convention for governor"
The occasion for this announcement
on the part of the man who has led
the Democratic hosts of Hudson to so
many victories, and the place where
1t was made. were most auspicious
one-the annual outing of the Robert
Davis Association and the William
Harrigan Association to College Point,
Long Island.
1t was the second time the Demo-
cratic workers from the two big coun-
ties-and there were fully ten thousand
of them-met in social confab at ad-
jacent groves within easy walking dis
tance. How they fraternized is shown
at a glance by the work of the STAR
photographer here depicted.
Davis Outings Popular,
AS might be expected, the Davis out
Ing was the most numerously attended,
not because there are so many more
Democrats in Hudson than in Essex,
but because the Davis outings have
been of annual occurrence for score
Of years. while the Harrigan Associa-
tion did not make its debut until last
year.
Sheriff Harrigan and the Hudson
county leader have long been known as
warm personal friends. Their friend
ship is as strong today as it ever was.
and 1t was after Colonel Bob" and
Uncle Bilr' had their usual heart-to-
heart talk in the Hudson chieftain's
headquarters that the latter expressed
his views as to the desirability of
Woodrow Wilson's nomination.
Mr.. Davis knew without anybody tell
ing him that the old warhorse from the
Ironbound district of this city had
gubernatorial aspirations of his own.
That subject. 1t Is safe to assume, was
at least casually mentioned during their
quiet little talk. If it was, 1t is dollars
to doughnuts that Colonel Bob" and
Uncle Bill'' parted with but a single
thought on that all-absorbing topic of
the hour.
Is First Announcement.
Heretofore Mr.. Davis has refrained
from expressing a preference for any
of the candidates named, but his
friends convinced him yesterday that
he ought to take them into his con-
fidence publicly. No other course would
be logical. they argued. after Mayor
H. Otto wittpenn's implied insult IN
refraining from reviewing the asso-
clation from the City Hall stand until

WASHINGTON IS
STILL IN DOUBT
ON HAGUE AWARD
Officials Uncertain as to Real
Import of Decision on Sew
eral Points.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.-The state
department officials are not quite sure
that they fully comprehend the decision
of The Hague Tribunal in the fisheries
case. This uncertainty exists, notwith-
standing the fact that Chandler, Ander-
son. the American agent at The Hague.
was at pains to cable over night sew
eral thousand words of extracts from
the decision.
AS the cabled explanation did not In
clude the reasonings upon which the
tribunal based its declarations, several
important points in the case are still
shrouded in doubt. It is probable that
Mr.. Anderson, having all Of the docu-
ments before him, will be called upon
to inform the department what, in his
the arbitration.
For a time there was some apprehen-
sion that the principles laid down by
the arbitrators might be of general ap-
plication. That would be a matter of
serious concern IL for no other reason
than because the application of the
"Headland theory of defining marine
Jurisdiction would close Hudson bay to
Americans. The conclusion has been
reached, however, that the decision in
this case applies solely to waters and
shores and bays expressly covered in
the treaty of 1918.

for Accident.

land with his triplahe in front of the
grand stand from an elevation of about
twenty five feet, A. v. Roe. the English
aviator, go badly damaged his machine

field in Atlantic that in all probability
1t will be out of commission for the
remainder OF the meet The wheels
struck In soft dirt, throwing the tri-
plane on its nose. The forward planes
were broken and both blades of the
propeller were splintered. The engine
of the machine was almost buried In
the earth. Roe was uninJured, although
he received a bad shaking up. This
was the second accident in which Roe
has figured during the gathering of
aviators here. He said following the
crash that his engine was not suffi-
ciently powerful to elevate the triplane.
Out After Records.
Both the professional and amateur
air pilots stated today that they would
attempt to clip whatever records have
been made at the meet. Spurred on
by the large lead in the number of
points held by Claude Grahame- White,
the professional aviators made .prepara-
ticns today to attempt to overcome.
the Englishman's advantage. Grahame-
White, however, stated today that he
would go after the accurate landing
record made by Glenn H. Curtiss, yes
erday, which is sixty-three feet ten
inches.
For the first time since the meet
opened the amateurs showed an active
interest today. five of them being on
the field shortly after dawn. William

feet in the air, but In nearly every
