 a result of last nights prize ring ia l tality. when Tommy Mccarthy met death in a bout with owen Moran. l the Englishman. Even the arrival of
 Jack Johnson and the excitement or a personal sizing up of the big negro failed to lift the sporting fraternity out of it's depression.
 The dead boy had not advanced far enough to be rated among the lumi-
 naries of the roped arena. so that the sadness of the sport followers was not due to any sense of loss.
 but to very general feeling that the occurrence may have an effect on the whole fight game in Califcr- mia. now practically its last stand Fans are recalling the dark spots in puSilistic history here It was in san Francisco that Harry Tenny died from his bout with Frank Neil four years ago The blow that put Me Carthy out last night was identical with the smash that caused the death of Jimmy Franey in his fight with OConnell ten years ago Later ring history holds the death of ~Ginger~ Williams, who was knocked through the ropes in a fight with Kid Ken meth at Coalingo Jew weeks ago. Williams skull was fractured by striking plank. No legal penalties were inflicted as d result of these fatalities in the ring.
 Physicians who attended Mccarthy agree that the fatal injury was due to the impact of the skull against th.. floor when he was knocked out They say the blow itself was not fatal, and experts blame an unpadded ring. The coroner'S inquest will be held May In the meantime Moran and the oth- CTS arrested in connection with the fight fare out on bail Moran l. greatly disturbed by the tragedy.
 Thet affair has served to arouse churcf and civic associations to re newed opposition to the Jeffries- Johnson fight. and the present laws govefaing contests in this state.

TO PUSH TAX CASES.
Franchise appeals Sent from
albany to This City.

Albany, March 2.-On motion OF Auor-
ney General O'Malley, Supreme Court JUS
tice Chester today granted 22l orders chang
ing the place of venue from Albany TO New
York ard Kings counties in cases where there
were returns TO the court in orders to show
cause in certiorari proceedings
The cases involve payment of special
franchise taxes due from 1900 down to the
present time, amounting to several millions
of dollars. Included in the orders are 1l2
cases In which special franchise taxes of
companies in the Metropolitan Street Rail
way system of New York are involved, in
GLIDING not only the Metropolitan surface
roads but also the Third avenue lines and
the Manhattan elevated.
In III cases Justice Chester vacated orders
of references, including several cases in
which the reference had been made to Job
L. Hedges Of New York. References were
vacated in all cases where no testimony
had been taken by the referee. Mr. Hedges
opposed the vacating OF orders of refer
ences in which he was the referee.
Representatives of Guthrie, Cravath &
Henderson; Lord, Day & Lord, and Davies,
Stone & Auerbach. representing corpora
tons, opposed the change of venue and the
vacatng of reference on the general ground
that the eases could not be effectively tried
before the courts.
1t is understood that the orders in these
cases made to-day clean up the special
franchise litigation involving New York
City to the extent of bringing the actions
directly before Justices O'Gorman and
Blackmar for trial in New York and Brook
lyn in the near future.

This Legislature also must adopt or
reject Governor Hughes's proposal for
state supervision of telephone and tele-
graph companies through the Public
Service commissions, For two years
bills to effect this have been killed ruth
lessly strangled in the mesheS of legis-
lative red tape without a chance fer a
genuine vote by the Legislature on the

worth each year has declared himself In

A special legislative committee named

matter of state supervision Some peo-

Progressive Republicans also point out

posed to the present views OF railroads,

rations, in the not remote past have
felt it TO their advantage to have good
political and legislative connections.

to the Public Service commissions law

powers of the commissions.
AS the situation is viewed by men in
the Hughes following it is no longer
question Of personality. 1t has become
the effort to perpetuate an outWorn,
broken-down system of political and
corporation exploiting Of the public, as
opposed to the progressive policies of
President Taft and Governor Hughes.
They maintain that SO surely as the re-
dictionary leaders continue their fight so
surely they are doomed to defeat The
chief concern of the President, Senator
Root and Governor Hughes at this time
is lest the leaders should temporarily
handicap the Republican party in the
state and perhaps in the nation through
their shortsightedness and selfshness.

DEFENDS THE "OLD GUARD.
Paper Friendly to Odell Gives Views on
Party Leadership.
IRy Telegraph TO The Tribune.

Ry Telegraph 10 The Tribune
Newburg \. Y. March 12.-'The New
burg Journal" which Is friendly to eX-
Governor Odell, tonight prints an editorial
on the situation at Albany and in the state.
1t says that no word has ever been spoken
against Cobb. who has stood for the same
things that Hughes stands for, and he is
now assaied because he did not follow the
dictates of those who would do the think
ing for all. The editorial adds:
Leadership depends on results. To be
successful is usually All indication OF good
leadership. But Woodruff has to so, not
because he has been unsuccessful, but be-
cause he holds opinions contrary to those
expressed by self-appointed party leaders
and self-constituted advisers. 1t would be
interesting to learn how to differentiate be
tween good politician and pirate pollti-
clan, so called.
Like many who believe that tins is a
critical time in the affairs of the Repub-
lican party, we are not inclined to the
opinion that the way to be successful is
to SOW seeds Of discord and to stir up strife
and contention in the party ranks Old
time leadership sought to pacify and to
use more soothing methods than this latter
type of Republican leadership. which would
annihilate those who fail to heed their
prOclamatons for party housekeeping
by those whose own past has been more
or less odoriferous.
We believe that the way to he successful
In the coming campaign is to leave results
to the voters in every locality. that they
may select their representatives upon the
various committees as well as their candi-
dates, without diCtation from Washington
or Albany. Further. there should be an
immediate abandonment of the idea that
the way to rid the party of bosses is to
put IN their places larger bosses, and that
the way to preach purity IN politics is to
practise the odiouS methods of the past.

Indianapolis. March 12-Russel B. Harri-

The sensational story published in The
Record Herald OF Chicago, alleging on the
authority of Senator Plat that my father
was party to a corrupt bargain in con-
nection with his nomination for the Presi-

tention of Senator Plat While others

denials of the truthfulness of Senator
Platts charge, a member of his fam

My father did not promise to appoint
senator Plat as his Secretary of the

The truth is that Senator Piatt, instead
of leading, followed the New York deleGa-
ton. In explanation. [ would state that
it appeared prior 10 and at the time of the
organization of the chicago convention
that Senator Depew could not secure the
votes of the delegates from the Central
and Far Western states, on account of
being the president of the New York Cen
trail Railroad, and the Harrison forces
