DELEGATES ARRIVE
 FOR CONVENTION
New York Delegation Will
 Be Uninstructed
TARIFF TO BE ISSUE
Platform Will Be Progressive, Yet Sane"-Interest Centers in the Selection of Four Dele
 gates at Large

New York. April 10-Talk of Mayor w, l. Gaynor as a compromise candidate for the democratic presidential nomination was the chief topic of conversation among delegates arriving here today for the dem- ocratic state convention, which will take place tomorrow to select 90 delegates to the national convention at Baltimore. It is conceded by the leaders that the New York delegates will not be instructed, all though 1t Is expected the states solid vote will be cast for Mayor Gaynor.
 Downward revision of the tariff will be made the paramount issue in the platform to be presented to the convention by the committee on resolutions
 The Rochester platform of 1910 will be reaffirmed and the administration of Governor Dix indorsed. High praise will be given to the leadership of Represent tative oscar W. Underwood of Alabama, chairman of the ways and means com mittee in the national House of Rep resentatives and the legislative pro- gramme of the democrats in Congress will be approved.
 Speaking of the platform. George NJ. Palmer, chairman of the state commit tee, said today it would be Progress sive, yet sane.'
 It was believed tonight that few changes in the original draft of the plat form as arranged today will be made by the committee on resolutions.
 Interests centered tonight in the selec' ton of the four delegates at large. Opin- ion seems to be unanimous that three o the states "big four" will be Gov. Johr A. Dix. United States Senator James A O'Gorman and Charles F. Murphy. Hal a score of names are being discussed fo the fourth place, but those most frequent ly mentioned tonight were Alton B. Par ker, Samuel Untermeyer. Herman Rid der Isidor Straus, and Lieutenant Gov ernor Thomas r. Conway.
 It is the belief of Chairman Palmer tha the convention will conclude it's business tomorrow afternoon. Chairman Paine today requested the temporary and thu permanent chairman of the convention t' condense the speeches in order to saw time. So far as could be ascertaned to night, tomorrows session of the conH ell ton will be the most harmonious session held by the democrats of New York stat in more than a decade

Enormous Power in Coal

From London Answers.
 Does anyone realize the power of coal as worker? A man was set to work to pump as hard as he could all day, and at the end of 10 hours it was found that he had done as much work as a little less than two ounces of coal could do.
 Taking all the energy put forth by a hard working man during one whole year, the same amount of force would be fur nished by S6 pounds of good coal, or say, 40 pounds of average coal
 We produce six tons head of popula- tion, and this contains the energy or 33s men working for whole year
 or course, even in our best engines, the greater part of the working energy of coal is wasted. But even if only one-tenth is turned to account, one and a half cwt of coal is equal to a man working for 300 days of the year.
 horse can do as much work as 10 men, but one and one-fourth pounds of coal has as much working force as a horse expends in one day. So that a ton of coal, if we could use all it's force would do as much work as six horses working for a whole year.

STATE MAY SAVE
 S5O,OO0ANNUALLy
Reported State Taking Care of Insane Patients Free
 Who Are Able to Pay

Montgomery April 10.-(Speeial.)- in- vestigation that may result in an annual saving to the state of from $40,0O0 to S50,000 will be begun within the next few days by Examiner of Public Accounts II. Y. Brooke, who has been instructed by Governor O'Neal to visit the various counties of the state and look into the property rights of the inmates of the Alabama Insane asylum.
 Governor ONeal has the impression that the state is being imposed upon in a few instances. Under the law the fam flies of inmates of the state asylums are supposed to pay for their maintenance except when these families are in indi- gent circumstances. In some cases 1t Is reported that certain of the inmates have estates of their own, but are being main tained at the cost of the state.

GOVERNOR ACTION l. VICTORY FOR STATE State Tax Commission to
 Make Assessments REACH COMPROMISE Understood Allen Will Assist Com mission in Work - Agreement
 Reached Believed to Be of
 Harmonious Nature
REACH COMPROMISE

Montgomery, April 10.-tSpecial) )-The state tax commission will continue to make assessments In Jefferson county. This decision was reached thls afternoon after conference which Governor O'Neal had with Chairman Lee Long of the state tax commission and J. V. Allen, county commissioner of Jefferson county.
 So far as can be learned, compromise was reached between the governor and MT. Allen, though the nature of this agreement was not divulged The gover- nor declared when asked as to what had occurred at the conference that the state tax commission would continue to make assessments in Jefferson county. and It is understood that MT. Allen will assist the commission in this work.
 The action of Governor ONeal is re- garded as a victory for the state and has presumably ended long and mooted controversy between the state tax com mission and Commissioner Allen.
 The state has maintained that it should make raises in Jefferson county, partieu- larly in view of the fact that If the as- easements are made by the county com missioner, the state has no appear ron the decision of the board of revenue Lis believed that the failure of the las' legislature to incorporate in the revenue bill provision whereby the state couio appeal from such decisions is largely re sponsible for the fight between the state commission and Tax Commission Allen IL was again contended by the state that the fees of the county commissioners derived from assessments was far out ol proportion with the services required py that office, as these fees would amount to from s9O,Oo0 to $40,00O annually.
 It is believed that the matter has no" been finally settled, and there is every indication that the agreement reached to' day was of an harmonious nature Meni' l bers of the state tax commission VII | nrohahlv resume operation in Jefferson l aou..A,, .,,itbir tha nnxf few days.
