BREAK NEW YORK DEADLOCK
Justice James A. o'Gornan Is Elected
U. S. Senator to Succeed
Chauncey M. Depew.

Albany, N. Y:-Amid shrieking ren.
ditions of songs by legislators, who
marched about the hall in lockstep,
the United States senatorial deadlock
was broken Friday and Supreme
Court Judge James A. O'Gorman.
grand sachem of Tammany Hall, was
chosen Chauncey M. Depew's success
or. He got 112 votes against 80 cast
for the Republican opponent.
After a three months battle, during
which the Democracy of the state has
been torn to shreds and William F.
Sheehan, Daniel F. Cohalan and a
score more of his favorites have been
rejected, Charles F. Murphy cor.
rallied just enough insurgents to give
him a majority for the last man on
his string
When that break came, it was all
over with the anti-Murphy senatorial
campaign, and there was stampede
among the Democrats finally to make
O'Gorman's selection unanimous.
Justice James A. O'Gorman was
born in New York city on May s, 1860.
and got his early education at the
public schools and the College of the
City of New York He took up the
study of law and graduated from the
law department of the New York uni
versity in the class of 1882. Entering
politics, he became identified in a
small way with Tammany Hall, and
soon attracted the attention of Rich
ard Croker, the Tammany boss"
In 1887 Mr.. O'Gorman was nomi-
mated by the Union Labor party for
Justice of the district court of the
Eleventh district, but was defeated by
a few hundred votes. In 1903 O'Gor.
man was rewarded with the regular
Tammany nomination for the same
position and was overwhelmingly
elected. At the expiration of his term
in 1900 he was elected to the supreme
court to serve for IA years. In 1902
O'Gorman was elected grand sachem
Of the Tammany society.

FIRE RUINS CAPITOL
MAGNIFICENT STRUCTURE AT
ALBANY, N. ", COSTING $27,.
100000 SWEPT BY BLAZE.
PRICELESS RECORDS BURNED
conflagratIon Believed to Have Re-
suited From Defective Electric
Light Pushbutton-Valuable Docu-
ments and State Papers Lost.

Albany, N. Y-F7ames Wednesday
ruined a large portion Of the $27,0OO,-
900 state capitol here.
State Architect Ware estimates
the loss at from $5,O0O,OOO to $1,000
600, exclusive of valuable historical
papers which cannot be replaced.
There is no insurance on the build
ing or its contents.
Flames ragged in the costly struc-
ture for four hours, destroying prac-
tically all the west wing, and were
declared to be under control. Later
they broke out again in the south
west angle of the building and threat
ened to complete the work of destruc-
ton. In two hours, however, the fire
was subdued
1t was reported that several men
were missing, but all have been &C
counted for except Samuel Abbott OF
Syracuse, night watchman In the
state library, who is believed to have
been burned to death.
Several firemen were knocked un-
conscious by falling debris in fighting
the second outburst of flames, and
were taken to a hospital.
The governor summoned Architect
Ware, Police Chief Hyatt and Fire
Chief Bridgeford into conference as
to the safety of the capitol. Mr.. Dix
feared it had been so badly damaged
that all parts were unsafe. The con-
ferees refused an opinion on the mat
ter until thorough examination had
been made.
Firemen considered the senate and
assembly chambers practically intact,
with the exception of slight fire and
water damage, but Mr.. Ware advised
against their use until they had been
tested The building was placed un-
der martial law.
On the third floor, where the flames
gained their start, the departments
wholly or partly destroyed by fire or
seriously damaged by water were:
State library, containing 100000 vol
umes, among them the most valuable
genealogical works in the United
States, together with relics and price
less documents, some of them dating
back to 1776 and irreplaceable.
Assembly and senate libraries,
stored with thousands Of volumes Of
law and code books; also number of
documents and manuscripts that can
never be replaced.
Both houses met at the city hall
in a response to a call by Governor
Dix. It is expected that the legisla-
tors will take up rigid investigation
of a report that an electric push
button was reported out of commits
sion by watchman Tuesday and not
repaired during the day. This but
ton is held responsible for the con-
flagration.

COFFEE HEART
Very Plain in Some People.

A great many people go on suffering
from annoying ailments for a long
time before they can get their own
consent to give up the indulgence
from which their trouble arises.
A gentleman in Brooklyn describes
his experience, as follows:
Il became satisfied some months
ago that l owed the palpitation Of the
heart from which l suffered almost
daily, to the use of coffee, Il had been
a coffee drinker for 30 years) but l
found 1t very hard to give up the bev-
Srage.
"One day ran across a very SEN
Sible and Straightforward presenta-
ton of the claims of Postum, and
was so impressed thereby that l con-
cluded to give 1t a trial
my experience with 1t was unsat-
isfactory till l learned how it ought
to be prepared-by thorough boiling
for not less than Is or 20 minutes.
After learned that lesson there was
no trouble.
Postum proved to be a most palat-
able and satisfactory hot beverage,
and have used 1t ever since.
"ThS effect on my health has been
most salutary. The heart palpitation
from which used to suffer SO much,
particularly after breakfast, has dis
appeared and I never have return OF
It except when dine or lunch away
from home. and drink the old kind OF
coffee because Postum Is not served.
I find that Postum cheers and invig-
crates while 1t produces no harmful
stimulation" Name given by Postum

DECLARES LAW VOID
BUCKET SHOPS WIN OVER Gov
EMINENT BY DECISION.
Has Severe Setback In Campaign
Which Began With Raids In
Seven Large Cities.

Observation-Disclosures" is
lawful occupation, according to a
decision handed down by Justice
Wright in the district Supreme court,
and as a result the widespread move
ment by the department Of justice to
end the practice in nearly half a
score of cities threatens to come to
naught. Justice Wright based his de-
cision on the ground that the amend
ment to the code defining "bucketing"
is unconstitutional because 1t deprives
citizens Of the liberty Of contract
guaranteed them by the Constitution.
The decision was rendered in the
case of Edward Altemus of Jersey City
and Louis A. and Angelo Celia of st.
Louis who operated a so-called buck
ct shop under the title of the Standard
Stock and Grain company. With 26
others they were indicted and, while
six Of those pleaded guilty and were
fined in sums aggregating $500, the
remainder decided to fight.
The government announced its in
tention to appeal from Justice
Wright's decision. The attorney gen
eral, when informed of the finding. de-
clared he would carry the question to
the Supreme court of the United
States, if necessary, for he is anxious
to have the matter determined in or
der that the department may proceed
with further prosecutions along the
same line if the law is upheld
In the meantime the law officers of
the government will watch carefully
the progress of an appeal of other of
the indicted "bucket-shoppers" pend
ing before Justice Gould Of the same
court. This appeal is not taken on
constitutional grounds, but raises
technical objections.

The cause of the explosion caused
widespread damage to property, win
