Carnegie an Admirer of Roosevelt.

London, Oct. st is simply i'm
possible for Roosevelt to stay out OF
politics, and l am glad of it. He
shouId't stay out, for consider him
one Of the great forces for good in
America.
This is the opinion Of Andrew Car
negie, expressed in today's Evening
Standard. The Laird of Skibo, who is
now in England and receiving the free
dom OF nearly every city he visits, be-
lieves the republican party in America
will yet get together, bury its indiffer-
ence, and re.elect the present splendid
president.
MY view OF American politics, "
Carnegie said, is that the people are
making a fuss over the most minor
questions, and that before election both
parties will sink their differences and
present solid fronts. The reelection OF
President Taft in 1912 is so much to be
desired that the republicans should put
every other issue aside"

Searching for Bodies.

New York, Oct 3.-W!th the tide
running Ikea mill race" the divers
and river men who are searching for
the bodies OF the 90 lost members OF
the battleship New Hampshire, we're
dubious today that any Of the bodies
will be recovered for several days. A
high wind has prevailed ever since Sat
urday night when the disaster occurred,
and this has added to the fear that
many OF the bodies have been carried
out to sea.
One additional fatality took place
just after midnight, when man O.
warsman from the battleship Kansas
lost his life. He was known to hi,
companions as Frenchy" and dived
overheard to rescue young woman
who had fallen from the landing at
18th street. He was followed i'm
mediateIy by Ensign Blackburn. The
latter grabbed the girl just as life belt
was thrown TO him and they were pull
ed ashore. Another life belt was thrown
to 'Frenchy," but before he could
reach it he was swirled out into the
stream by the furious tide, and sank.
The first body to be recovered was
taken from the water today. 1t was
that of Joseph Dudley, a coal passer,
and was picked up by harbor police off
Eighty-Sixth street.
Los Angeles, Oct. 3.-Shovelers en-
gagged in searching for human bodies
in the ruins OF the Los Angeles Times
building today came upon a grew
some sight when they located the re-
mains OF seven at the foot OF the
elevator shaft Of the building.
Narrowing scenes were presented in
the crowd surrounding the building
when the sorpses were lifted out bit by
bit and dumped into morgue baskets.
Employees of the Times viewed the
fragments Of bodies and made an effort
to identify them. They found it prac-
tically impossible, SO badly charred
were the bodies.

The Alleged Bribery.

Chicago, 3.-The political conspiracy
wrangled which the 'defence" will rely
upon in the Lorimer senatorial bribery
investigation, was again forecasted al
today's session OF the investigation,
when counsel for Lorimer was cross
examining Jervis Newton, ofthe state
bank of Chicago
Newton testified that state senator
Holstlaw deposited $1,000 in the bank
on June IS, 1909. Holstlaw has con-
fessed that he received this sum for
voting for Lorimer and Newton's teSti-
mony was counted upon to show that
Holtslaw really had this sum at the
time mentioned.
Counsel for Lorimer asked Newton
whether Gov. Deneen, Lorlmer's OPP
ponent on the senatorial race. was not
one OF the largest stockholders in the
state bank. The natural inference he
desired to bring out, it seemed to spec
tators, was that Denee's influence with
the bank might have resulted in New
IONS testimony, substantiatiug Hollis
law.
Newton stated that Deneen owned
stock in the bank but he did not know
how much.

Governor and Police Board.

Baltimore, Oct. 3.-There vas an at
tempt made to call out the militia to-
LAY in an effort to settle the squabble
between Gov. Crothers, OF Maryland,
and the police commissioners Of Balti-
more city. This is based upon state
nent made by the governor at noon to-
day. There will be no developments
today" said the governor. President
Whetele, OF the police board, is i'll with
appendices.
The warlike attitude existing between
the chief executive Of the state and the
police board was brought about by the
governors charges of alleged incom-
potency on the part of the board in
failing to GUST police officials who were
suspected of misconduct in Office. The
governor threatened to suspend the
present board and appoint successors.
This led to hostilities, the police board
posting armed guards to keep out any
invaders that the governor might at
tempt to seat. Then followed the re-
port that the state militia would be call
ed on for duty, under orders from the
governor, to take possession Of the board
room.
1t is the generallbelief of the business
community that this is no time for
hystegia.

HISTORY has habit of repeating it
self. The situation of the republican
party of New York is much like that
whish arose in the conflict between the
stalwarts'' and the "half-breeds" a
quarter OF Ia century ago. This dlvi-
sion between the two factions split the
party wide open, and resulted in the
election of Grover Cleveland. To APP
preciate the conditions, says the Phlla-
delphia Record, it is necessary only to
substitute the reactionaries Of today
for the stalwarts, and the.insurgents or
pretended progressives for the half
breeds. Another division was between
the federal and state officeholders.
Judge Charles j. Folger, secretary of
the treasury in President Arthur's adj
ministration, was nominated for COVER
nor in 1887 and Cleveland was elected
over him by a plurality OF 1872 900
votes,

THE SECOND DISTRICT.

The investigation by subcommittee
from the democratic State committee OF
the recent Second district democratic
congressional primary, in which Repre-.
sentative II. l.. Maynard contested the
award OF certificate Of nomination to
William A. Young, came to close in
Norfolk Saturday night, when counsel
for Maynard, Young, and citizens, the
latter protesting against the award OF
certificate to either contestant or con-
testee, submitted final argument except
on brief. The committee adjourned TO
formulate report to the State COM
mittee at Richmond tomorrow.
Saturdays feature was the intro
duction of evidence by Young intended
to wipe out charges Of illegal voting in
Norfolk county and of affirmation of
illegal voting at Drewryville, in Sou th-
ampton county which counsel for May
nard said would also be answered by
affdavits.
In a recount of the courthouse pre-
cinct of Norfolk city go votes instead of
10 we're found for Maynard and $50 in
stead OF 500 for Young. This. was re-
garded by the Young people as good
discovery" for them, because, 26 people
had testified they voted for Maynard in
this precinct when only - were return
ed.

district was ''honeycombed" with fraud,
asked for new primary.

publicans that the Second district will

The general upinion Of the politi-
clans is that Hearet will endorse Stlmson

ference here next Wednesday night

Disorder In Spain.

Madrid, Oct. 3.-The rumor spread
through Madrid today that the cabinet
has arranged for military dictatorship
under General Weyler in the event Of
a revolt following the meeting of the
Cortes, now scheduled to assemble on
Thursday.
Despite the statements that Sundays
demonstrations Of clericals and anti
clericals passed off quietly, it is known
today that several hundred persons
we're injured in fierce encounters in
Madrid, Seville, Santander Saragossa
and Valencia.
The demonstrations, however, were
much more quiet than expected, owing
to the clericals belief that King Alfonso
is on the eve Of surrenderipg to them.
Premier Canalejas declares this assump-
ton wholly unwarranted.

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
MONDAY EVENING, OCT. 8

"WoMEN today do not seem to appre-
ciate that the greatest power in the
world is in their hands. They are GUS
todians OF the future, the wardens OF
the human race. Has the being to
whom has been confded the greatest
human mission the time to waste in
buying dresses for lap dogs, OF wearing
those big, extravagant hats, and those
strange, fashionable gowns ?" 1t was
Cardinal Logue, the primate OF Ireland,
who in New York few days ago made
this interesting observation on the ten
denotes OF modern womanhood. l
don't like to see women lawyers" he
continued. They get such rough
handling in the law courts. That is
why / do not care for women in poll
tics. It is not the woman who is unit
for politics; it is the politics that is un-
fit for the woman. The grandcst pro-
fession in the world for women is car
ing for home and children. have
not noted" he continued, in the
conversations Of such Americans as |
have met an undue reverence for the
dollar. But there is the rush every
where; the frightful tension that tells
OF the dollar hunt. | do not say that
you care for mouey more than any
other nation; but you work harder for
it. You expect to get rich, or go bank
rupt in a night. You are not willing
to plod." Cardinal Logue is keen OBJ
server OF human events and it did
not take him long to catch on to
American habits and customs.
