EXPORT MERCHANT A SUICIDE
Santiago Porcella, of New York, Shoots
Himself in Suburban Home.

Crawford. n. J., Jan. 15.-Santiago Por-
celia, a commission merchant, of No. 90
Wall street, New York City. committed
suicide by shooting himself in the temple
at his home. in Holly street, to-day. He
was alone in his room at the time, the
rest of the family being at breakfast on
the floor below. When they heard the re-
port OF the pistol shot they rushed into his
room and found him dead on the floor with
the revolver still in his right hand.
County Physician Westcott made an in
vestigation and learned that for the last
few days Mr.. Porcelia had been respondent.
but had said nothing 20 any member of his
family about his troubles.
The family denied that the sugar fraud
investigation in New York had anything TO
do with Mr.. Porcella's suicide. They said
however, that he was an export and import
commission merchant, doing business with
SpanishAmerican countries, and so han
died a good deal of sugar.
Mr.. Porcella was well known here and
lived in a fine house. He had been resi-
dent of this place about twenty-five years.
He was prominent churchman and also a
member of several clubs He was fifty-five
years old. Three children survive him. His
wife died some years ago.

SMITH NOT HELD.
Magistrate Kernochan Sends
CMbbing Case to Baker.

Thomas r. Smith, twenty years old. OF
No. 5o4 West 30th street pressed his charge
OF assault against Patrolmen Flaherty ami
Brown I'm the night court yesterday Magis-
trate kernochan decided 10 forward all OF
the testimony TO the Police Commissioner
for action. Smith complained TO Mayor
Gaynor on Thursday. He vas baudaged so
bountifully last night that IL was imposs-
Bile to do more than imagine how badly he,
might be bruised
The case was full of contrasts. John
Geraghty. OF No. 1a4 Tenth avenue. was IN
court. but when asked by the magistrats
TO identify Smith as the man who stabbed
him last Sunday morning said ne didn't
know who had stabbed him. Smiths law
yer called witnesses, who testified thai
Smith was at mass Sunday morning.
and therefore could not have stabbed Ge-
raghty. Smith. the police say. has been
arrested several times before.
According to Tanner Smith, as he
was known to the police. he and a woman
attended d dance on Sunday night When
they came out of the dance hall. IN 4ist
street, near Eighth avenue. he ran across
d policeman he knew. who told him. he
said, that Patrolman Brown wanted to see
him
Brown and Flaherty beat him more or
less for few minutes. he said. and called
him hard names. Then he was arrested.
charged with stabbing Geraghty.
The. magistrate said that if Geraghty
had not changed his testimony he would
have held Smith. Five policemen were
said to have been looking for smith on
Sunday night. The magistrate said it
seemed a little queer that so many police
men should have been interested in Smith,
and indicated a wish to ascertain from
Smith by what means he had made the
acquaintance Of so many policemen

CITY TASTES WATER.
SO Says Professor Bemis, Urg-
ing Municipal Control.

Professor Edward W. Bemis recently ap-
pointed First Deputy Water Commissioner
whose work in systematizing the Cleveland
Water Department has been commended by
city water supply experts, told the City
Club yesterday afternoon briefly and in
general terms something of what might
be expected Of him In his new office. As
one of the speakers at City Club
luncheon he followed Charles \. Chad
wick, of the Board Of Water Supply. and
Assenlblyn,an Lindon Bates. each of whom
outlined his ideas for the perfection OF
New Tork's water system
Professor Benlis took middle ground as
compared to the other two speakers, saying
that while he had doubt that the city's
per apita consumption OF about 135 gallons
a day could be reduced by eliminating
waste, the projects for an increased supply
wer4 a necessity of the future.
New York ought naturally to have a
smaller consumption per capita than West
ern cities said Professor Bernis- I'm the
first place. there are, comparatively speak
ing no lawns here, and. second. the iron
and steel business concerns of Western
cities give way here 10 lofts housing
clothing manufacturers and similar small
users of water" The Deputy Commissioner
wanted it understood that he was speaking
in an individual capacity and not as an
officer of the administration. He said, how
ever. that rigid and continual inspections,
which would be necessary to eliminate
waste, would never be welcomed by Aneri-
cans.
Mr.. Chadwick emphasized the fact that
the yield of the present system would not
be sufficient in the near future, and dis
played stereopticon views of Croton reser-
voirs showing the storage of water to be
twenty-five feet below the level necessary.
Estimating the sale of water at s65
million gallons. Mr.. Chadwick said that on a
basis of thirty-year operation the Ashokan
system would pay for itself. and thereafter
would bring an income to the city of from
$40 coo 090 to So 100000 annually.

BIG WOODSIDE SALE
Rdil1cay to Use Land for Right
of W0u.

Rapid progress on the plans for the com
struction OF the railroad from Westcbester
County across He'll Gate and thence
through Queens by the New York Connect
ing Rallroao Company is shown by the
transfer last week OF eighty lots at Ter
minal Heights. Woodsde The tract was
conveyed for a consideration of sl50ooo by
the Terminal Heights Development Com
pany TO the Stuyvesant Real Estate Com
pany acting for the New York Connecting
Railroad.
The purchase was made in order TO pro-
vide for switches. turnouts and yard
through which connections will be estab-
lished with the Pennsylvania-Long Island
system at the eastern end of the Syunyside
Yards. The Connecting Railroad also Sc
cured from the grantor permission to cross
Lenox, Polk. Worthington and Roosevelt
avenues and 18th street by means of steel
bridges Along the six miles of Queens ter
ritory TO be traversed by the Connecting
Railroad no thoroughfares will be crossed
at grade.
BY the recent acquisition or a strip of
land fronting on twenty-five thoroughfares
and extending from the Astoria shore to
cabinet street, the Connecting Railroad
Company has secured a clear right of way.
al SitG III NlOlH from 81 10 100 feet- from
the shore line opposite Wards Island to
the Glendale section distance approx
mating five miles, at a total outlay of
about $4,000.
On the Westchester side sufficient land

The first plans submitted by the Connect
Ing Railroad for the bridge across Hell

considered by the architects. After the

FEW SHERMAN FOLLOWERS
At DISTRICT CONVENTION

Utica. n. Y, Sept 2l.-The nine Oneida
County delegates who will support Col.
Roosevelt for temporary chairman OF the
Republican State convention as against
Vice President Sherman were selected
and instructed this afternoon at the Sec
ond assembly district convention, held In
the village of Whitesboro.
These nine delegates represent the main
fruits of the fight of the progressives
against the old guard In yesterdays pri-
maries. The other fourteen delegates
from the First and Third districts Of the
county were captured by the Sherman
forces. as shown by complete returns
to-day
The progressive delegation 20 the state
convention from the Second Oneida dis
trict is headed by Senator Davenport
The resolutions adopted by the conven-
ton strongly indorsed primaries and
highly commended President Taft, Col
Roosevelt. Gov Hughes. and Senator
Davenport. The resolutions contained no
reference 10 Sherman.
For the past twenty years the Second
Oneida district has been a Sherman
stronghold, and the control of to-day's
convention by the insurgent element Of
the party presented a strange spectacle.
Less than half dozen of the Vice Presi-
dents followers were in attendance.

GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
DISCUSS LOSS OF TAWNEY.

The news OF The defeat in the Mime
sofa primaries Of Representative James
A. Tawney caused lot of comment IN
Washington yesterday among govern
ment officials. With the exception Of
Speaker Cannon and perhaps one or two
other members OF the House. Mr. Taw-
ney was the best-known committee chair
man among such officers. for 1t was be-
fore him that they came each year TO
explain their estimates. and upon him
they depended 10 get Increases.
Speculation as 10 Mr. Tawney's prob
able suecessor-if the next House is Re
publican-settled pretty definitely upon
Representative Walter I. Smith, OF Iowa
Mr.. Smith is not the ranking Republican
member of that committee; in fact. he
stands sixth. but nevertheless the gossip
turned at once TO him on account OF his
well-known ability as a defender OF the
Appropriation Committees bills on the
floor and his undoubted acquaintance with
that committees work. Mr. Smith has
been nominated again. and unless Iowa
turns Democratic. will be back in 1911
He has been mentioned as a possible sue
cessor 10 Speaker Cannon. IL the latter
doesn't run. or even if he does, but his
chances for securing the Craftsmanship of
the Houses most important committee
probably are greater.
However, few now believe there Is any
chance of the next House being Repub-
nean.

THIRTY-NINE KILLED
In TROLLEY WRECK
Continued from Page One.

hurt, rendered first aid 10 those who
survived the shock OF the cos-sion.
Relief cars were hurried from this city
and physicians went from Button in au-
tOmobiles. Many Of the dead already had
been removed from the debris OF the
splintered cars, and the work Of taking
out the nrangled bodies Of those in the
farther recesses OF the wreckage was be-
gun by the companys wrecking crews.
One OF the survivors says that both
cars were tearing along at full speed
when they came within sight of each
time TO check their onward plunge
They came together with a splintering
crash and then arose the shrieks of those
who were not killed in the impact. Help
from the nearby residents was render
ed 70 such as could be removed from the
wreckage. but II seemed a long time IN
I'll skillful ministration Of surgeons equip
ped for emergencies were provided the
injured.
When a relief car arrived at Kings
land the physicians found more work for
the coroner and undertakers than for
themselves.
The dead and dying were lying in the
fields and woods near by, and little could
be done for most OF the injured. as they
seemed 10 be beyond medical aid. The
wood and iron work Of the cars were in
tangled mass and the bodies of some OF
the victims we're twisted and mangled out
of recognition in the debris.
Owing to the confusion, the identifca-
ton OF the dead was not rapid. The fact
that so many of the cars occupants were
dead and so many others seriously hurt
placed a great handicap on the efforts 20
identify those who had been killed. Few
in the car escaped death or injury, and
those in their dazed state at first could
render little aid in determining who the
dead were.
II is impossible at this hour TO say how
many of the twenty seriously injured will
die, but physicians hold out hope for sew
eral of them.
The following are known TO be fatally
injured
