JUSTICE BOWLING
GETS "A
AM WA Y.

The report that Justice Bowling has
heen selected by the majority and In
eurgcnts as the compromise candidate
for United States Senator reached The
Evening World office from Albany
shortly before 3 O'Clock this afternoon.
At hat very time Justice bowling. who
IL sitting in the Appellate Division, re-
ceived a message that appeared 20
cause him some agitation. Hastily put
ting on his hat and coat. he hurried
from the Appellate Division courthouse,
neglecting do inform the attaches where
no was going or IL he intended TO re-
turn.
Justice Dowling's friends know that
lie has been solicited for weeks. not
only by the Tammany organization. but
by Democrats who ave no Tammany
alliances to enter the Senatorial race.
Hs has been practically assured that
all that stands " him and the
Senatorship Is his consent.
II would be with great reluctance
hat Justice Downing would give up the
hard but co%ngenial n remunerativs
work on the Supreme Court bench 70
enter the arena OF actual politics at a
salary of $500 a year. His friends sal
that up 10 oon to-day he had stead.
lastly refused to allow his name to he
placed before the majority as n candi'
date for the office. What happened af'
ter noon and what message caused hi,
hurried departure from the court car
only be conjectured.

said. 1t would place them in the en-
b~arrassing position Of having TO explain
to their constituents why they failed
to vote on such an Important PROPOSE
ton as the election OF a United states
Senator.
Leader Wagner explained that the

velop. whereupon Mr.. Merritt said he
had received no such notification.

an adjournment until tonight and
asked for fair play and considerate
treatment for the minority. Such an

in line with the efforts being made ito

explained that as the caucus had already
been called for Tomorrow morning.
an intermediate session would neces-
sarily be fruitless.

adjustment and the reserves were sent
out to assist In quelling the excitement,
which they went about good humoredly
and all too patiently TO please Mr..
Rosenblath.
1t seemed to the onlookcrs that
every individual hen and rooster was
pursued by at least five children. Some
Of the poultry flew NJ on window s.lls.
whereat an arm would reach out and
pluck them In. Arms reached up out
of getaways, coal scuttles and base
ment areaways. and every arm that
reached out got a chicken.
About forty OF the escaped chickens
flew down into an excavation and
thence into a unnel that is being built
for n new water main. The alert-eyed
youngsters gathered at the other open
ing OF the unnel and waited for the
poultry to come out. What fowls es-

And what Is true there is true In

the Marshal.
Building Laws Violated.
Marshal Beers reported to-day that
he had made O discovery of the utmost
Importance which satisfied him that the
owners Of the waist factory had ar
ranged the exits In violation Of the law
and that the violations had been ig-
nored by inspectors Of the Building
Department.
The fire marshal made his discovery
late Yesterday afternoon. To-day he was
carrying out certain Investigations to
verify Its Importance. Tho clue was
furnished 20 Mr.. Beers by the testimony
Of Battalion Chief Worth on Monday.
Chief Worth said that on the ninth
floor. nearly in front OF the elevators.
he found bodies piled fve deep. terri
bly, burned. He said he thought there
| must have been a partition or q railing
| there which had burned away.
Had Been High Partition.
Mr.. Beers yesterday afternoon went
witt, several experts to ind out what
was the obstruction that caused the
congestion Of bodies at the point indi-
Gated by Chief Worth.
From the nails in the hoo ana
charrsd bits Of timbsrtng lie found
that there . really been q parti-
ton enclosing the elevator ON the
Greene street side and forming =
narrow hall 1T the back OF tho
room, with . narrow entrance from
the main aoor about nfty feet from
the elevators.
This partition constituted q
clear violation, Mr.. Beers said to-
day Of the building Law and should
have been ordered out by build
ing inspectors long ago The OBJ
ject Of IL was apparently to pre-
vent workers from going TO the
elevators without passing inspso-
tion by watchmen.
The effect OF It in the tragedy o.
Saturday was that girls who were run,
ming for the elevators were compelled
to go to the narrow openings In tn,
partition. The little hall outside becam,
clogged, and they piled up In the open
ings and We're wedged there. Otheri
coming upon them from behind fount
all chance Of getting out cut off by tn
jam and ran to the windows and
jumped.
The intensity OF the rush on the mar
now partition openings was indicated
by the fact that one or two girls ha'
apparently been forced over the top an
had dropped into the little hall outsid
stunned. to be burned there when tn
U :ames came.
