NO DONKEYS FOR BRYAN
But a Friend Did Bring Along Two
Llamas for Candidate.

Rumors were plentiful on the Hamburg
American pier. in Hoboken. yesterday that
the steamship Butcher, Just in from a South
American cruise. had brought in two well
bred donBeys for William Jennings Bryan.
A glance over the ships manifest showed
that all sorts Of South American animals
were on board, but there was no reference
TO donkcys.
Within an hour after the rumors started
Gould c. Detz. Of omaha, a close friend OF
Mr.. Bryan, cleared the mystery by ex-
planning that he had brought north for Mr..
Bryan two llamas. which were gifts from
the Mayor Of Buenos Ayres TO the former
Democratic candidate. Mr.. Dietz also ex-
planned that nc had brought along a ST.
amese cat, a cOckatOO and strong impress
sion of having seen Dr. Cook at Los Andes.
The President Lincoln. which lay at an
adjacent pier TO the Butcher. had d large
consignment of animals. one item Of which
was listed on the ships manifest as three
packages of elephants"

MAYOR SHARPENING AXE?
Grade and Damage Commission
Lease of Rooms Held Up.

From Il remark dropped by the Mayor at
the meeting of the Sinking Fund Commits
sion yesterday it IS believed thai lie has in
mind some plan TO get rid 81 another com
mission. similar 10 the Aqueduct Commits
sion. which he believes has outlived its use
fitness. This is the Change Of Grade Dam
axe Commission. which was established by
special at az the Legislature i'm 1889 for a
specific purpose and has existed since by
having its sphere OF activity enlarged from
time 20 time by other acts Of the Legs
latrre. The question Of leasing for an
other year the rooms in the Stewart Build
ing occupied by the commission, at n rental
OF Sl.S00. came up.
To hike TO have that lease he'd up" said
the Mayor. II understand that this COM
mission won't need rooms much longer"
The lease was held up.
The present commissioners are William
L. SullinEs. George &. Norton and Lewis a.
Abrams. who draw $1,000 a year each. They
have a secretary. Lamont Mclaughlin, who
gets $4,000 = year. and Il stenographer.
James 4. Russell. who draws $4,000. There
Is also a messen niger at $500.
The commission was originally appointed
caused by the depression Of the tracks OF
the New York & Harlem Railroad from
l4sth street. in The Bronx. but. as stated,
It's powers have since been extended.
The Board Of Assessors fixes the dam
ages To property in other parts OF the city.
and il is believed 1t could just as well add
to Its work the duties now performed by the
Change Of Grade Damage Commission.

and Worked Like Veterans.

when placed under arrest last night
two Schoolbovs OF South Yonkers con-
feSsed t. having committed q number of
robberies which have baffied the police
for a fortnight. The boys are Willard

Place, and Edward Romaine. fourteen
years old. OF No SO Caroline avenue.
Young Davis's father. Harold W. Davis.
is a Manhattan business man, while the
father II the Romano boy is WaclaGs

When Mrs NJ Sweet. Of No. % Hamil-

He ran to the station house and repeated

Herrick's Appeal for Economy.
Ny. Herrick said that he desired most
heartily to uphold and support the ad-
ministration Of President Taft. He made
an appeal for economy in government
expenditures and prophesied a reorgan-
lzation OF administrative methods OF
government. He deprecated the passage
OF 1900 laws by various lawmaklng
bodies in the United States last year.
mostly made by lawyers. who, he said
wanted to regulate everything except
DuDilC tADttiulllIc anu biCA'A'7~A'NN
Coupled with his comment upon the
government. federal, state and NUM-
Cipal Mr.. Herrick defended the adj
ministration of President Taft who, he
claimed. by economies in many depart
ments had reduced the estimates by
S42.OO0.OOO. and would effect n still
further reduction If he were properly
supported by Congress. Members of
Congress We're charged by Mr.. Herrick
with the waste and extravaganza which.
he claimed. permeated the departments.
1T is with the greatest reluctance" he
said. THAT Congress approves any
change that may involve a decrease in
patronage"
Many Of those who have assumed
the administrative functions of govern
ment are so poorly qualified for their
duties, so devoid of high purposes, that
the consequent extravaganza and waste
is appalling. This condition is not con-
fined TO any particular administration.
nor TO any one section the country.
1t is as widespread as the nation. and
characterizes the governments Of
municipalities. counties. states and the
nation"

GOVERNORS ENEMIES
Continued from first page.

see a Hinman-Green bill pass this Leg
islature." said one of the Governors sup
porters. Il think the machine people are
willing TO adopt the Governors bill, il
they can retain the state convention.
They are anxious now TO pass bill
which might be called the Hinman-Green
bill That name is regarded around the
state as a guarantee OF good faith, be-
cause il is placed on Governor Hughes s
bill You see. there is much political
capital in passing a Hinman-Green bill;
little in Meade Phillips bill The one
difference now is the abolition OF the
state convention. I think Wadsworth
and his friends would swallow the direct
primary up 10 the state ticket But il
il is right that far. why not all the way?'
The Meade Phillips bill represents
the utmost concessions we so-called ma
chine Republicans can make" was the
ultimatum OF one of the Governors oppo-
nents on the direct primary issue. We've
compromised or yielded 10 the Governors
views on all save the adjustment Of con-
Ventions. There our views differ abso-
lrtely. How can there be compromise?
All / can see is TO fight it out on that
line"
Some Of the snti-direct primary legis-
lators concede.. however. that the general
investigation proposition has been a
tremendous argument in favor OF the
Governors direct primary bill.
The people are ripe for n change in
the political system" said one legislator
to-day. II don't know that the direct
primary would be any panacea. and
don't think the hard headed citizens ex-
pect the millennium right away. but they
do want change. They are favorably
impressed with the direct primary the
DRY. and are not alarmed at its reported
lack OF success in some states when they
hear that il has been a bowling success
in others. SO think the next stage Of
political development in this state viii
be by way of the direct primary, and /
expect TO see il come this year"
