RAILROAD men Vote
TO ENTER POLITICS,
The Delegates Representing 100000

Candidates Stand on Questions
Concerning g Their Interests.

New York, Sept. 25.-For the first
time in the history of the railway
unions, members and delegates rep
|resenting 3Os,00O of the four great
divisions of railway employees in the
East voted unanimously at a meeting
held here today to take concerted ac-
ton in national and state politics.

let party lines blind you to your true

that the men you vote for stand for
the right principals, regardless of
party and support those men, who
meet the requirements and you will
not only be doing the best thing for
yourselves, but for the public.
This Is not a political move at all,
as is generally understood. but move
to get away from the old lines of
party and politics.
In pursuance of this plan the meet
ing voted to send a series of eight

Says the Treasury Dept,
Of Situation This FALL
Banks Have Looked Ahead and
Piled Up Their Resources.
NsarIy Every Crop In the Country Is
Reported TO Be a Bumper.

Washington, Sept. 25.-It is unlikely
that there will be any shortage of
money this fall, anywhere in the
United States. This is not to be con-
strued as a promise to any partic-
ular Individual, but is the large, i'm
personal view of the treasury depart
ment, whose hand is on the pulse of
the nations financial and business
life and represents the opinion of Of
ficials who constantly watch for
symptoms of any stringency. In their
opinion, the danger mark. if there has
actually been one during the several
months past, has been left astern.
They give these reasons for their
prediction of plentiful money:
Primarily the banks saw ahead what
looked like a money shortage several
months agos They knew they could
expect no help from the United States
this year such as they got in 1908 and
prepared themselves. They have piled
up gold, built up reserves and cut
down risky loans and bonds or other
securities which might not be easy
TO sell have been turned into money.
New loans have been closely scrutin-
lied. BY doing all that. the banks
have fortified themselves against an
emergency How well they did it.

banks and done very easily. Panics
foreseen, never come, financiers say.
Money is plentiful in England and
on the Continent That is always said
to pe a good sign in making pre-
diotiOp for this country.
Nearly every crop in this country
this year is reported to be a bumper
lone.
Corn will set a new record. Four
fifths of the crop has been gathered
so the chance of loss from frost is
small.
The cotton crop will be 100000 bales
greater than it was last year.
Next month, it is estimated. investors
all over the country will receive near
" $40, ,0O0, 900 in dividend checks from
industrial. railroad and other corpor
ations. That will add. OF course, to the
money generally in circulation
The record crops are one argumen

FISHING INDUSTRY A FAILURE.
Dealers Fear That the Business Is or
the Verge of Ruin.

st. John. n. B., Sept. 25.-.The grav-
est fears are expressed by prominent
fish dealers. who reached the city to-
day, that the fishing industry in the
vicinity of this port and in the Bay of
Fundy waters in general, is on the
verge of ruin. There is no doubt
that the whole industry is being de-
pleted," said one man. All kinds of
fish are very scarce and prices are
higher than ever before. 1t is felt that
the fishermen are themselves largely
to blame. and they are charged with
catching the smaller fish to make up
for the scarcity of larger ones.
The fish wardens are to take the
matter up. All along the New Bruins
wick coast, fish are very scarce. cod
fish and herring being a total failure.
The fishermen say that the bad wealth
Ier and scarcity of bait has been re-
sponsible for their failure.

MASSACHUSETTS PRIMARIES
Will Begin This Week and Warm Con.
tests are Expected.

Boston, Sept. 25-The first political bat
ties of the year in Massachusetts will be
fought on Tuesday and Wednesday of the
present week, when primaries for the
election of delegates to various conven-
tions will be held by the two dominant
parties, and direct nominations will be
made in three congressional, Is senatorial
and nearly three score representative dis
tricts
Joint primaries in II cities and two
towns and all the Democratic primaries
will be held on Tuesday. with the Re-
publican primaries in the remaining 10
cities and 322 towns the following day.
In the absence of any suspicion of a
fight for places on the Republican state
ticket, which will again be headed for a
third time by Governor Eben S. Draper.
interest in the primaries centers in the
personnel of the delegates to the Demo-
cratic state convention, where it is eNt
pected that four well known leaders will
struggle for the gubernatorial nominal
ton. The candidates are Former Sena-
tor James II. Vahey, who has twice led
the party; Congressman Eugene N. Foss,
the victor in the famous fight in the 18TH
gerald of Boston and Former Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Charles S.
Hamlin. AS very few of the delegates
are expected to be instructed, the Demo-
cratic convention is expected to be very
interesting.
There will also be struggle for the
congressional nomination in three strong
Democratic districts, the 9th, 10th and
l1th. where the three present congress
men, John A. Keliher, Joseph F. OCon-
nell and Andrew ]. Peters, are seeking re-
election.
Having an eye on possible control of
the Legislature and the selecting of the
successor of United States Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge, the Democrats will nomi-
nate candidates in every one of the 40
senatorial and nearly all the 240 repre-
sentative districts.
Although very little insurgency has de-
veloped in Massachusetts, there is some
in the Republican ranks over the return
of Senator Lodge. who is being oppose
by Congressman Butler Ames of Lowell,
grandson of Gen. Benjamin F. Butler.
governor of Massachusetts in 1888 Mr..
Ames has not pursued a very vigorous
campaign. Outside of the Lodges-Ames

No Compromise
Says the Colonel.

oyster Bay. N. V. Sept. 25-There
will he no compromise in Theodore
Roosevelt fight for direct nOmina-
ton law, the solonel himself said so
today. The question which all along
has been the main issue between Col.
Roosevelt and the Old Guard and
which was largely responsible for the
treach between them is to be met
snuarely at the Saratoga convention
this week. Col. Roosevelt said that
he would not recede from his position
and that he believed enough delegates
would support him to put into the
platform a plank embodying his ideas.
His assertion was prompted by re-
ports published this morning that
he had concluded it would be impos-
sible to influence majority of a
delegates for a strong direct nomin-
ations plank and therefore he had
decided to accept a compromise. The
colonel was emphatic in his denial of
these reports. In answer to them, he
dictated this reply:
The statement that I have con-
sidered compromise on the prima-
ries plank is untrue. l stand exact
ly where I have stood, and while II
is true that there are some upstate
leaders who are not with US. I believe
we shall have majority with us for
direct primaries"
Although Col. Roosevelt did not &c
into particulars as to the exact form
of primaries he will advocate he
stated Re stood exactly where he had
been standging. When the Cobb bill
was before the special session of the
Legislature last July, Col. Roosevelt
sent a telegram to Lloyd Griscom,
president of the New York Republi-
can committee, urging the passage OF
the bill with amendments prepared by
Mr.. Griscom.
The bill, although favored by Governor
Hughes and President Taft as well as
Col. Roosevelt and Mr. Griscom, was f.
nally killed. 1t provided for direct nom
ination of candidates for Congress-, the
Legislature. and county offices, 'excep
that it exempted New York City ever,
