THE SINGER AND HIS SONGS.
BY Jacob De Haas.

Bradstock threw away the stub OF
his black Breva with a sign of i'm
patience. The fountain of the smok-
ing room stories, he had sat there
silent. Juggling at his short mustach-
los khilst all was buzz around him.
At last. he raised his voice above the
hubbub Leave it alone, boys, leave
it alone"
"But Bradstock, no one does a
thing like that without reason,
said Humphreys, who generally
brought Bradstock into the raconteur
vein.
"And singing, too" added Jackson
from behind his glass of beer.
"What would you have singer
do?" cried Bradstock, pleased at again
being the center of attraction.
"At such a moment!" interJected
Humphreys.
"They heard his voice quite clear
ly till it died naturally"
Then Bradstock lit fresh cigar,
watched the smoke curl away with
satisfaction and posing easily to the
interested group, for he knew how TO
tell a story-he said. "You boys are
as curious as women. But it will get
into the newspapers, and you might

with headlines"
Then he proceeded, "Brinkman was

Indications Are That He will Capture at Least 8 of the 10 Delegates to the State Convention.
Goodwin Forces Appear to Be Strongest in 10th and 18th Districts With Scat tering Support on West Side of River.

There is no denying that the visit to this city yesterday of Everet J. Lake, former lieutenant governor and candf- date for the gubernatorial domination on the Republican ticket this fall has given his cause here a big impetus. Mir. Lake held forth all of yesterday and part of today at the Stratfield where he personally \ met and un- changed views with several hundred Republicans, most of whom were party workers.
 Prior to the coming of MT. Lake there was a sort of suspicious air about town that the Goodwin forces were quietly that unless the Lake men were up and doing they were in for a surprise. Workers who had been accredited to the Goodwin support showed up yes terday and if their statements are to be believed they are not now and nev- CT have been alligned with that end of the gubernatorial contest.
 One result of the visit of Lake will be shown soon 1t is averred in an open caucus of Fifth District Republicans who can not stand for the parlor ticket agreed upon a few nights since at a of the president of the Tax Payers League Thomas H. Mcdonald.
 Farmer readers will recall that the first publication of what happened at that secret gabfest appeared in these columns. It was told that the ticket agreed upon by the gum shoe con- tingent present contained the names of MT. Macdonald, B. c. Graves as one time alderman, and Charles M. Bradstreet.
 The Farmer stated that Graves was the principaI spokesman at this gath ering. Mr. Graves denies that he was there, except in spirit. The Farmer today questioned it's informant as to whether MT. Graves was there or not and 1t was suggested that MT. Graves would tell whether he was one of a mere handful of men who met in MT. to the second meeting and assisted in going over the voting list to select those considered sufficiently elect to be invited to the second confab.
 "You will find" said the Farmers informant, "that MT. Graves will not deny his presence at the first meeting of the gum shoers because if he does Robert N. Blakeslee of the Post who was an active participant might in the interest of veracity be compelled to publicly take exception to such a denial"
 Continuing the informant of the Farmer said: ''The whole thing that followed, that is the selection of a delegate ticket was cooked up by a few men who met under the hospitable roof of the president of the Tax Pay CTS league, which organization by the way is not in politics.

 Both men were arrested in connec- tion with the illness of Evelyn Sun shine Nichols, aged 19, negress whose death May 17th, occurred months after their arrest While the assist ant prosecuting attorney laid stress on the fact that the police had fail- cd to secure an ante-mortem state 1nent from the girl under such condi- tions as to make it admissible in ev- dence against the two accused men, he pointed cut to the court that even were such statements as were taken from the girl before her death, prob ably admissible, there was grave doubt as to the outcome of the case.
 Before deciding upon seeking the apgrcval of the icourt in the dis charge of the two men, Redden con suited with States Attorney Stiles Judson. Had the men been held for trial in the Superior court, after a preliminary hearing in the city court, Judson would be the prosecutor. The city court prosecutor frequently con- fers with the prosecutor of the upper court in such cases, and governs his attitude towards their prosecution by the judgment of the prosecutor of the higher tribunals.

Yet Thomas Walsh Lives to Tell the Story, Although He Will Spend Two Weeks in Hos-
 pital.

Falling asleep on a freixht car on which he was stealing a ride from this city to New York, Thomas Walsh aged go, driver living at 4s2 Logan street. recovered consciousness to find himself in the path of an express train laundering down on him at the rate of a mile minute. Walsh is in St. Vincent's hospital this city, He will recover though he is bruised and torn from head to foot
 Walsh can only recall that as the freight on which he was getting his free ride, drew out of Bridgeport. he The hum of the wheels made him drowsy he says and he remembers passing only one Of two stations be- yond Bridgeport.
 He has an indistinct recollection of falling through space, and then he can remember nothing more until he realized that he was lying on the rails of the west bound passenger tracks with a train drawing perilously near. He thinks the roar of the approaching train helped bring him to realization of his peril, for he had barely time to get free from the rails before it went sweeping by leaving IllIn III ClOuQ OI aust ana ClnQorS.
 Walsh's plight attracted the notice of pedestrians along the tracks and they called the attention of railroad men. Dr. G. H. Noxen of Darien near whose home the man met with his mishap applied temporary dressing to big gash in the mans scalp, and after a casual examination satisfied himself that Walsh was not danger ously hurt. Trainmen then put him on a stretcher and loaded him into the baggage of an early east bound accommodation train on which he was brought back to Bridgeport.
 Dr. McQueeney of the emergency hospital staff met Walsh at the rail- road station with the transfer ambu- lance and took him to St. Vincent's s hospital. Here it was found neces- sary to take 14 stitches in scalp wounds. It was found that he had severe contusions of the back and legs and many painful bruises where he had no doubt been rolled over on the ties as he fell from his hard bed. < Walsh will probably be in the hospi- tai for two weeks recovering from his remarkable experience, for besides his cuts and bruises he is suffering from shock.

 POLITICAL SENSATION

 gent is Anxiously Awaited.
His Friends Declare Today at Oyster Bay That He is Back for Fair in the P olitical Game, While
 aPadlock is Put on the Mouth of Every
 one at the Beverly Summer Capital.

From the fact that Clifford Pinchot and Victor Murdock are both known to have consulted with Colonel Roose- welt on the text of the latter's Osso- watonie speech of August 31, there seems to be a considerable ground for the prediction that this occasion will be the one on which TT. R" will make his first public profession of faith as an out and out insuFgent.
 With Roosevelt off the reservation and in the saddle against the admins tration forces. the hopes of these DO liticai leaders seeking to hafnnonize the rapidly diverging factions of the Re publican party have been badly shat tered. with "T. R." working for har- rnony and President Taft's "new guard" consisting of Norton. Crane. Lpngworth and Loeb seeking to re- move the administrator alleRed dead weight, consisting of Ballinger. Ald- rich, Cannon, Hale ct al. there were indications a few days ago of an ef- fective and typical Republican reunion. Today there is little chance for this, in the opinion of the political fore casters at the capital.
 On the other hand the prediction Is freely made that the next few days will see the lines clearly drawn be- tween the forces of conservatism" headed by the President and "radi- calism' led by Colonel Roosevelt and that each member of the party will be ready to choose sides in a fight to determine which element shall domin- ate.

 Although the statement of Colonei Rpossvelt's stand in relation to the present administration did not take une form of Q quoted remark. it was none Inc less authoritative. That 1t was not unexpected at Beverly was shown by Vfce-Presi6ent Sherman's remark there yesterday that the turning down of Colonel Roosevelt by the New York State Republican Committee could only be construed as "a victory for the ad- minlstration." This. coming from the pecond official in, the party. is regard Id by Colonel Roosevelt as parallel to a declaration against him by the present administration. He figures that responsibility for the rupture must be located at Beverly rather than at Oyster Bay. In this fact and in this forcing of the hands of the ad- ministration followers. friends of Roosevelt see an explanation for what appeared at the time to be the pres entation of his name for temporary chairman of the New York convention tn the face of strong opposition.

NICK L0NGWORTH
 QUITS UNCLE JOE
In Statement Ex-President $ Son-in-Law Tells Why Thumbs Are Down For America's Political Iron Duke.

Beverly, Aug. 1s.-Following SC closely the political conference here o1 the past few days as to be pointedly significant, came a sweeping state ment this afternoon from Represen- tative Nicholas Longworth, Republi- can, Ohio,) announcing his determin- ation not to support Speaker Cannon for reelection.
 'I shall oppose MT. Cannon's elec- tion as Speaker" said LongWorth "and I shall do so in the manner that I consider the proper and effec- tive one for the settlement Of con- troversies in my party, namely in the Republican caucus"
 Coming as it does immediately after half a dozen long conferences between President Taft and Congressman Longworth, including one yesterday al which vice-President Sherman was present, the unequivocal desertion by Longworth of Cannon is regarded here as the first move on the part Of the administration toward the elimination of the "iron duke of American pol1- tics.''
 we'll understood here that Vice-Pres1- dent Sherman should have assented to the throwing over of 'sUncle Joe .'' The Vice-President has long been known as one of the Speakers close friends, his partner in many a "stand pat" battle and an exponent of Can nonism. It is also believed that Rep resentative Mckinley, (RepublIcan Ills,) chairman of the Republican National Congressional committee, on his visit here, was apprised of the plan and agreed to it. Mckinley, Tn addition to being colleague of the Speakers is also close personal friend. The Longworth statement to- day is believed to be the fruit of mature deliberation among Republican leaders
