The great trouble IS, and I have told
the hackmen 10 their faces the same
thing many times. is that they have
swindled and cheated the public. II they
would only charge the regular rates they
would have more work than they could
do This is the simple truth"

from Mayer Came Through James
oreeiman-w'ritfeR n -sUGgesfions,

New York. Oct. Edward NJ. shep-
ard, speaking tonight at Carnegie Hail.
said that II there was any dictauon
about the nomination of John A. DIX at
the Rochester convention the dlctation
came from Mayor Gayno-.
When Mr.. Shepard said this he was re-
plying 20 the statements which Col
Roosevelt is making on the stump that
Charles F. Murphy. the .eader Of Tam
many Hall, directed that Mr.. Dix should
be the nominee OF The convention and
that because this instruction was car
ried out Mr. Dix was really the candidate
Of Tammany Hall and of the Wall street
interests which the colonel is declaring
are this year allied with the Tammany
organization.
In the conference. which was held in
Rochester by various county leaders, Mr..
Shepard was present and took a promi-
nent part Describing in his speech how
after AIr GaynOr has refused 10 allow
himself 10 be considered as a candidate,
some situation of confusion had arisen
because Of the several candidates who
wished TO secure the nomination, Mr..
Shepard said.
In the midst OF this situation there
came a signal message from a man OF
the utmost prominence in this CommUni-
y. There came a message from Mayor
GaynOr. l wish I knew Mr.. Creelman.
All the messages from the mayor seemed
TO come through him. Now. in this mes
sage the mayor gave a strong advice to
the convention TO nominate Mr.. Dix, and
let me tell you, II there was any boss in
control of that convention the most pow
erful OF all the bosses was Boss Gaynor"
News To- Politicians.
The fact that Mayor Gaynor had sug-
gested Mr.. Dix as a candidate to the
convention never got out until Mr. Shep-
ard made it public tonight The story
that came from the conferences at the
Rochester convention was that Mr. Dix
had been accepted as the candidate only
because he was the one man upon whom
the various aspirants for the nominal
ton could agree without fighting among
themselves in the convention.
In order that there could be no misln-
terpretation. MIR. Shepard was seen after
he had delivered his speech and was
asked this question:
Did Mayor GaynOr say In his message
that his choice To- governor was Mr..
Dix?"
Yes" replied Mr.. Shepard
Was that message delivered through
Mr. Creelman?"
'Yes,s' was the answer.
Was it written message?" ne was
asked
Yes" he replied. "and an oral one
also.

Election night has been counted on bv
the Broadway palaces TO turn them out
more profit than any other night In the

Chill winds could not wither nor
leaden clouds stale the infinite verve
and brilliance which launched the
Washington horse show on the crest
OF popularity at American League
Park Yesterday afternoon.
The diamond greensward was
carpeted with tanbark, and patrician
horse flesh pranced upon it. The
shades OF baseballistic glory were
rudely trampled down in the equine
invasion. Fashion thronged the
stands where lately the leather
lunged tribe of rooters held full
sway, and the crowning touch was
the presence of the President and
Mrs. Taft.
Graceful Horses Cheered.
Twas sport to thrill the blood and
charm the eye. The shows debut was
made while a dismal rain was falling,
but the day was scarcely marred by this
meteorological perversity. Cheers swept
the stands as graceful horses leaped over
barriers and fairly ''breezed" along IN
measured strides that were as precise
and fastidious as II the steeds were su-
premely conscious Of their possession of
aristocratic lineage. And equally grace
ful were the gallant. daring riders.
