TUG INCA PULLS
OFF BIG STEAMER
THE cRAleARD WENT ASHORE
OFF WARSAW SHOALS NEAR
SAVANNAH.

The tug Inca, of the South Atlantic
Towboat company, has returned to
port from Savannah, where she went
several days ago on a tow, and while
returning to port, rendered assistance
to the British steamship Craigard.
The Inca, while steaming along off
the shoals, noticed the big steamship
high and dry. Captain Hotch. after
maneuyering around considerably. sue
ceeded in getting aboard the steam
ship by the use of small boat. He
made a contract with the master to
pull his vessel off the shoals, which
was accomplished successfully at high
tide.
The Craigard was in only about six
feet of water and was in a very dan
gerous position. A small northeast
wind would have been fatal to the
vessel. The steamer was bound from
Barbados to Savannah for cargo
of phosphate. She was not damaged
at all by running ashore.

uprising has followed as yet.
Mr.. Russell, the American minister
to Santo Domingo, is at present in this
country on leave of absence, and the
secretary, Mr.. Endicott, is acting as

presumed here that Caceres has fallen
victim to one Of the Characteristic
Dominican plots. 1t is known that
Caceres' administration, which has
lasted four years, an almost unprece-
dented period in Dominican history,
has very recently been disturbed by

CITY PRIMARY
OCCURS TODAY
OPPOSITION FOR PLACES ON THE
EXECUTIVE coMMITTEE-voTE
PoLLED WILL BE SMALL.

The only issue in the primary to-
day is the one which centers about
the city executive committee. This
fact was discussed in The News a
few mornings ago, when two lists
We're submitted to the city committee
for places on the ticket. One OF the
lists represents, it is understood, a
solid delegation for doing away with
the election Of aldermen by the ward
system, while still maintaining ward
representation in council.
This is the list handed in by Alder
man Ludwig, who represents a large
number OF people who are opposed to
the present plan of naming the city
aldermen. The names of the gentle-
men who are opposed to the ward
system, as far as it relates to cleo
ton by wards, are as follows. From
the city at large: A. v. Wood, A.
]. Croyatt, w. w. Royal. First ward,
Max Isaac, A. M. Ross; Second ward,
w. B. Cook, w. c. Peoples: Third
ward, l. Goldsmith, j. e. Abbott;
Fourth ward, A. II. Boyle, w. L. Lang,
The other set of candidates for
places on the committee, it will be
recalled, was the one suggested to
the committee by Alderman Leo, at
their meeting last Thursday, and it is
understood that practically all OF
them are in favor of the present sys.
tenn of electing councilmen--tna is
to say Of the wards alone participat-
ing in their election. The gentlemen
on this ticket are: City at large, N.
Emanuel, b. H. Mason, ]. H. Whit
mire; First ward, ]. w. Bennett, W. H
Wood; Second ward, F. ID. Aiken, d
l.. Stevens; Third ward, E. G. Bruce
r. e. Briesenick; Fourth wa~G, .. W.
Owens, ]. G. Harvey.
Those who are opposed to the pres
ent system claim that it makes the
members Of council responsible 10 cnly
few citizens, thata it does not give
the voter chance to properly express
his views at the ballot box, thas he
city is too small for such plan and
that the law did not contemplate it
Four aldermen are to be nominated
at the primary. There is opposition
in only one ward, the Fourth, the can
didate being T. Newman and B. s
Nash. The polls will open at the
usual hour this morning. 1t is ex-
pected that only small vote will be
polled.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Nov. 20.-Quot-
ing Colonel Roosevelt's recent decla-
ration for square deal for both the
corporations and the public, the In
ternational Harvester company To-Day
nled in the supreme court OF Mis-.
souri, a motion for a rehearing in the
recent case in which it was condition
ally ousted from the state and fined
$4,000 on charges of violating the
state antitrust law. The gist of the
motion is that the Harvester com
pany ought not to be punished for the
mere possession Of power, and it an
nounced its intention if vigorously re-
sisting the fine.
The brief quotes this language from
the courts opinion by Chief Justice
Valiant:
On the whole the evidence shows
that the international Harvester com
pany has not used its power to op-
press or injure the farmers who are
its customers"
Referring to the fine, the company
says it will oppose it, not so much be-
cause of its amount as because OF tMe
fact, as is contended, that so large g

the company has been unfair or op-
pressive in its dealings and therefore
deserved so severe a punishmentwhilC
the language of the courts opinion il
to the contrary.
The brief quotes former Presiden
Roosevelt as follows
I'VE demand that the business mus
give the people a square deal; in re.
turn We must insist that when any
one engaged in big business honestly
endeavors to do right he shall himsel
be given square deal
we need to formulate immediatel,
and definitely policy which, in deal

but at their regulation and superyis-

Then there is the superstition about the

There is a superstition that if one per-

THE most malicious superstition of the

Surely this is not peculiar to actors; but the
