der" President Taft's New York
speech, in which he referred to "po-
litical neurotics," is criticized, as is
Secretary MacVeagh's speech at
Lansing, in which he said that Mr..
Roosevelt would not and could not be
candidate for the presidency. Mr..
Mccormick, who recently withdrew
from Senator La Follette's campaign,
has opened Offices in a downtown Of
fee building in Washington. The
statement was issued from there.
Until last night there had been no
Roosevelt headquarters in Washing
ton, and these offices are not known
as such, but the former presidents
friends say they will be as soon as
the colonel makes a public announce
ment of his position, which they
think will be soon. The statement
follows:
1.-The administration has embarked
upon a policy of political suicide and
murder'-murder if possible and sui.
eide il necessary. In its effort TO dis
credit the friends of Mr.. Roosevelt. II
has sought to destroy the republicans
who favor his candidacy. and has
cast its lot with the moribund reac-
tionary leaders OF the republican par

the great mass of progressive voters
throughout the country. Not content
with viclously attacking the progress

sought to divide the republican or
position to the president by confus-
ing facts with reference to Senator

Well-Known PugiIlst a Victim Of
Apoplexy.

Brooklyn. Feb. 15.-Gus Rubin,

Hawley, Samuel Hawley, Mrs. Haw-
ley A. Seymour and Miss Anna Haw-

a memorial in Chatham to their bro
Their, the late Edwin Hawley, the rail
road king.
What form this memorial will take
they do not, at present know Each Of
the heirs has in mind various things
that would be appropriate, but in no
instance has a decided opinion been
formed.
81 do not know the extent of Neds
estate" said Charles Hawley, "but
believe it to be so large that the
share of each heir will be greater
than any one person possibly could
use. If things turn out as | expect
they will / wish to do some good for
the people of this village.
"My brother Samuel feels as l do
about the matter. He came to my
house and for an hour we talked
things over. He told me Of certain
things he had thought of and told
him about some of my ideas, but as
neither has anything definite in mind,
we do not care to give out anything
for publication at this time"
When Mrs. Seymour and Miss Anna
Hawley were informed as to the atti-
tude of their brothers, they said they
had not talked with them about 1t,
but II they proposed to erect mem
orial or in any other way perpetuate
the memory of their brother, they
would assist.

SELLING CO Al IN
BENNINGTON IN
SMALL LOTS
Local Dealers Are Dividing
Supplies Among Customers
SHIPMENTS SLOW TO ARRIVE
Residents Experiencing Some Incon
venIence but No Indication Of
Real Famine as Yet

One effect of the unusually severe
weather that has prevailed during the
past six weeks has been local coal
shortage and two of the Bennington
dealers, the Henry H. futile company
and Robert II. Merrill, have such
small stocks on hand that they are
delivering to residences in quarter
ton lots. To users of large quantities
they are Of course making larger de-
llveries, but in the same proportion.
II was stated at the Office of II. W.
Myers & Son this morning that the
firm had a sufficient supply on hand
to last two or three weeks and that
deliveries were being made In as
large quantities as customers desired.
The supplies of the local dealers
have been subjected to an additional
strain for the reason that there is an
even greater shortage in some Of the
nearby communities. People are
driving into the village for coal from
North Bennington and Hoosick Cor
ners and are being supplied with re-
stricted orders.
Some OF the mill owners are becom-
ing anxious over the situation. One
dealer stated this morning that he
had no soft coal on hand and that he
was obliged to refuse an order be-
cause OF inability TO fill 1t. A car
load OF soft coal arrived this morn
ing for the Twin State Gas and Elec-
trio company.
There is little activity In the coal
regions during the holidays. The mi
ners are foreigners who are accus-
toned to lay of for at least a week
at this time and when they returned
to work the severe cold reduced the
production TO some extent The pre-
dominating feature. however, has
been the inability Of the railroads, to
make deliveries. The weather has
not only been so steadily cold as to
interfere with railroad operations but
the snow fall en the lines which car
ry the fuel into this section has been
heavy.
The shortage has been more in evil
dence in Manchester than In Benning-
ton. Because OF an inability to Sc
cure any fuel at all In that town IL
was impossible to hold services in

day and the Mark Skinner library at

ADMIRAL SALMON DEAD
Received the Victoria Cross for Un.
usual Bravery.

London, Feb. 14.-Admiral of the
Fleet Sir Newell Salmon died today
at the age Of n.
Until his retirement in 1905, after
serving over fifty years in the navy,
he was one of the most popular of
fcers of the feet. He was one of the
rare possessors of the Victoria Cross,
which he won for bravery in the field
during the Indian mutiny.
The courageous act for which AID.
miral Salmon was awarded the Vic
toria Cross was done during the sec
ond relief of Lucknow in 1857. He
was attached as lieutenant to the ma
val brigade and while the sailors
were attacking a strongly occupied
fort they suffered from the extraordi-
nary workmanship of one of the reb-
els. Salmon volunteered to climb a
tree which exposed him to almost Ger
tain death in order to pick off the In
dian marksman. His fieldglass was
shattered in his hand by the sharp
shooter, but Salmon took aim and
shot the Sepoy dead.
