Dayton, Ohio, June 22.-The Demo-
cratic party of Ohio goes into the
state campaign this fall with Judson
Harmon as it's candidate for Cover
nor and President. The Democratic
State convention which completed It's
labor today endorses him in the
strongest terms for the Presidency of
the United States after it had renom-
mated him for governor by acclama-
ton.
The belief held by many delegates
that the governor will resign shortly
after the beginning of his new term
to become a candidate before the next
Democratic National convention was
voiced by Ex-Governor James f.
Campbell The Ex-Governor was in
Producing Atlee Pomerene of Canton,
the nominee for lieutenant governor.
Here is the man. he said. who
will be lieutenant governor for SIX
months and the governor for year
and six months" Both of these nebu-
lous promotions, however were accom-
plished against the earnest protests OF
the beneficiaries.
Gov Harmon made a futile request
of the resolutions committee that they
omit the Presidential endorsement res
olutions. saying that he is making his
present fight on state issues and did
net want national issues injected into
the coming campaign. He was told

that it could not be prevented
Atlce PoEerene, who himself was
candidate against Harmon for the
nomination in the state convention
two years ago, almost angrily de-
manded that he be not compelled to
make the sacrifice, as he termed it. OF
accepting the nomination for second
place. The nomination was made unan-
imous. and after an hours conference
with his friends he announced he
would accept.
The proposal that A candidate be en-
dorsed for United States senator,
which was suggested by William ].
Bryan was defeated, receiving but 254
out of the 1899 votes iii the convention.
An act of great Importance in Ohio
was done by the convention when it
endorsed the proposal for constitu-
tional convention, q question that will
be voted upon by the people this fall.
The action of the convention means
that a straight Democratic ballot will
count in favor of holding the conVen-
ton to revise the constitution of the
state.

mated to make the campaign with
Governor Harmon:

New York, June 22.-At least four
persons were fatally injured and a
dozen others seriously hurt early to-
day when two crowded cars of a seem
ic railway on the Bowery at Coney Is
land, running at terrific speed, jumped
the track and dropped sheer 60 feet
to tine ground. Two cars of the big
switchback, had been filled and hauled
up the incline and the party, laugh
ing and shouting, plunged down the
first steep. Up the next incline the
cars shot to the high level of the seen
ic road and began to dive down at
mile n minute pace.
Something went wrong with the
mechanism and as the cars were
dashing around the first turn the rear
car jumped the track, dragging the
forward car with it, Ten of the occu-
pants were hurled from the cars ana
went crashing down amongst the
scenery, falling to the ground, where
they lay unconscious. Six went down

Hornaday Praises
Col. Roosevelt.

New York. June 22.-Theodore
Roosevelt has asked Governor Hughes
to visit him at Sycamore Hill in the
near future for a conference.
The news came out this afternoon
during a brief supplementary state
rnent Mr.. Roosevelt chose to add to his
denial this morning of a printed re-
port that he is to come out in opposi-
ton to the Governors policy of direct
primaries.
Mr.. Roosevelt did not say he had re-
ceived the Governors acceptance and
he refused to give any hint of what
subjects he expected to come up in
conference. But, taken as part of a
conversation which had to do with di-
rect primaries the mere announcement
aroused the keenest speculation.
Clifford Pinchot will be guest at
Sycamore Hill tomorrow night. He
made the announcement himself. but
was dumb to all questions. Mr.. Pinchot
and Mr.. Roosevelt have conferred in
Europe already, but no word of this
talk has ever come out.
Tonight Col. Roosevelt was the
guest of Robert Collier at a private
dinner at Sherrys. No list of guests
was given out and no reporters were
admitted. He will remain in New York
tonight and be at his desk tomorrow
morning, returning to Oyster Bay late
in the afternoon.

STRENUOUS AUTO TRIPS

Hon. f. M. Simpson, accompanied by

Co., arrived in this city late Tuesday
evening from Portland, having made

and his friends had one of the most
exciting automobile rides of their ex-
perience and one they do not care to
have repeated.

was the better part of valor and sought
safety in a barn. At one place Mr..
Simpson was just on the point of driv-
ing his machine into the barn, when
the lady of the house showed up and
refused him the privilege. There was
nothing to do but seek another place
of safety. Finally the Bangor men got
under cover, but not until they had re-
ceived baptism of water.
After the storm had apparently
passed over. the journey to Waterville
was resumed. A member of the party
in speaking of this part of the trip
Wednesday morning said that the
storm west of Waterville was very
heavy and for a distance of two miles,
he should say, on one side of the road
the glass in the windows of the farm
houses had nearly all been broken by
the ha;lstones.
II don't believe there is glass enough
in Waterville. to refill the broken win
dows we saw said this member of
the party in further explanation of the
sight. I'm one place there was a pile
of hailstones that looked as if it had
been dumped from a dump cart and
was deep enough for sleigh to travel
in. The leaves of the trees were cut
sharp off from the twigs and in some
places the road was filled with broken
limbs and branches"
Leaving Waterville the automobilists
found that the machine was skidding
good deal in the mud and investiga-
ton showed that the agent in Port
land had supplied the machine with
chains which were too short. SO there
was nothing to do but visit a black
smith and get him to rig the chains so
that they could be used temporarily.
In this condition. Mr.. Simpson and his
friends succeeded in getting to this
city without further incident.

North Sydney. N. s.. June 22.-The
Hamburg American Line steamer

Montreal June Is for Rotterdam with a
general cargo and 20 passengers, is on
the rocks at Flower Ridge about one
mile south of Lorne island. All the
passengers were rescued. The crew
are still standing by the ship.
Owing to the fact that Geographic
communication was interrupted for a
time the particulars to hand Of the
accident are meagre, but it is estab-
hshed that while the Allan Line steam
err Sicilian, attracted by distress sig
nais, stood by the Prinz Oskar during
the night, it was found when the day
broke her position was SO perilous that
the 20 passengers aboard the German
vessel were transferred to the Sicilian
and the latter has now proceeded on
her voyage.
1t is said that the stranded vessels

but so far it has not been found posi-

had been damaged. AS the place where
she has gone ashore is particularly
rocky, it is not likely that she win be
able to escape lightly. even should the
weather remain clear and calm. If
a storm breaks, her doom is sealed.
Some of the cargo is being thrown in
