New York Fight
 Looms Up Large
STRUGGLE TO GET CONTROL IN
 REPUBLICAN RANKS.
PRIMARIES THURSDAY
Will Have Important Bearing-Return
 and the Prosressives After Delegates

New York, Sept. 11.-With the re- turn of Theodore Roosevelt from his western trip. the struggle between the old guard and the progressives for control of the republican state con- vention looms larger upon the politi- cal horizon. Both sides have been con- ducting a quiet but effective campaign to capture delegates during the col onerS absence and the result of Thursdays primaries in New York, Buffalo and Rochester will in large measure determine whether the selec- tion by the state committee of Vice President Sherman as temporary chairman shall be ratified or rejected in favor of Colonel Roosevelt
 Both Factions Confident.
 Leaders of both factions profess confidence in their ability to win the support of a majority of the 1915 deI- egates to the convention. Of the twenty odd counties in which dele gates have already been chosen, 1S2 are credited to Roosevelt The smaller cities will hold their primaries on September 20
 Two Questions to Decide.
 There will be two questions before the convention: First, whether the delegates shall seat Vice President Sherman as temporary chairman or reverse the action of the state commit tee and seat Theodore Roosevelt in stead; and, second. what shall be done about direct primaries. Both factions of the party admit that the line up of delegates will differ on the two questions. So keen has the fight over them now grown that it has al- most drowned out all the talk of can didates for the state ticket.
 Roosevelt at Oyster Bay.
 Oyster Bay, N. Y. Sept 11-After an absence of three weeks, Colonel Roosevelt is home again, weary from his western trip, but well satisfied with the result He enjoyed every minute of it, he says
 The colonel reached New York at ten o'clock this morning from Pitts burg. His first orders on reaching Oyster Bay were that no one should be permitted to invade the privacy of Sagamore Hill and he immediately relapsed into the comforts and seclu- sion of his family life.
 Tomorrow he will plunge into an ac- cumuIated mass of correspondence It is likely that this will occupy his en- tire day and that whatever consulta- tions are to come with those who have in hand the fight to force his cleo tion as temporary chairman of the coming. republican state convention will be postponed until Tuesday when he will visit his office again.

 Cut Flesh from Thigh.
 Or the known injured, John James. an American, 50 years old died in a hospital Sunday night. Before he could be released to be taken to the hospital surgeons had to cut the flesh from his right thigh to free him from the gril of the weight above.
 For several years the Erie has been working at the gigantic task of carv- ing an open cut for it's passenger trains through the solid rock of Bergen Hill, which in some spots is three hundred feet high. This cut was opened for travel not long ago, but there still re- mains the task of hewing a common portal for the old tunnel and the new cut out of the ledge where they will meet west of the boulevard. It was there that the fall came today.
 Drills Loosened Rock.
 A wall of rock from four to ten feet thick still separates the two sets of tracks and eight sets of drills were pounding away at it today. Their jar loosened thick strip of rock forty feet wide and twenty feet high. It peeled off like wall paper and toppiAd crash ing into the spot where the gang was Of the old tunnel.

 Sixty Fifth Regiment as Escort.
 A profound silence stole over the spectators when the Sixty fifth regi- ment recruited from French Canadians of Quebec province were seen ap- preaching in full dress uniforms. The government had wished to give the guard of honor to the host. which it does at each recurrence of the fete dieu. but a technical difficulty had arisen by reason of the presence of a mission from the papal see. The city was surprised that it had been smooth ed over at the last moment. The off = cial order of the colonel was for the regiment to attend "a church celebra- = tion.'
