VERY reluctantly THE News takes from
its columns the name of Edward c. Stokes
as Its choice for United States Senator.
This action is not of our seeking but is the
result of the determination of the ex-Gey-
ernor not to enter the primary contest this
year, although he still hopes that he may
at some time in the future, reach the goal
of his ambitions. The disappointment
felt by THE News is not confined to our
narrow limits 1t is statewide, and es-
pecially keen in this county. The former
Governors reasons for his action are set
forth in the statement which follows. His
willingness to sacrifice personal aims, to
work just as hard for the party which has
had his services so long and which really
owes him something. will not be detrimen-
tai to him. He will add to his already ex.
tensive list Of friends and his reward is
bound to come to him. Following is his
statement:
Il shall make no contest for the United
States senatorship this fall. 1t is well
known that the senatorship has been the
ed, and it is one which l still entertain
and which | shall endeavor to realize at
the earliest opportunity consistent with
what l deem to be my public obligations
1.-THE situation at the present time,
However, is so critical and chaotic In party
affairs, both infstate and nation, that it is
the clear duty of every patriotic citizen to
do hispart In working out sane and wise
solution of the problems before us.
Under our system of party government,
that work can be most effectively accom-
plished by helping to make ones party an
unsel6sh instrument for the public we'll
fare and the embodiment of the highest
ideals.
Il mean to do my share toward that
end, and l feel that my efforts will be
more effective If am free from the sus-
picion of self-seeking and personal inter-
est. 1t Is time for harmony and cooper
alton. not for differences or selfshness.
''Unwise management and leadership
haYe stirred many Republicans to protest
and given rise to new party. The rank
and file of the old and the new have much
in common and are one in their opposition
to Democratic policies. United, they will
be successful; divided, they may fall
Mere names should not separate them
They are working practically together in
many parts Of the west and in one county
In this state, and l believe wise counsels
will bring about unity of action that
will regard policies more important than
men, and elevate this campaign from one
of discussion of personalities to a dis
cussion of principles
II take this course purely from a sense
of duty, without any conference direct or
indirect with any of the other candidates
for United States Senator, and without
any agreements or bargains of any kind
with anyone.
MY activity In this campaign will be
just as pronounced as though | were a
personal issue in the contest"

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 10, 1912

STATE Road Commissioner Stevens has
issued statement In which he deprecates
the fact that the roads of New Jersey.
built at great cost, are rapidly going to
pieces and he relates what was said by
many at the time the bill was passed that
reciprocity In the automobile business has
been very detrimental to our highways
Commissioner Stevens makes many prac-
tical suggestions that are worthy of at
tention. There is one that will not be
generally accepted, however, and that is
where he suggests that there should be a
tenure of Office act for the supervisors Of
roads whereby they be kept In Office In
defnately. There are many counties, and
Burlington is one of them, where the
people think change might be beneficial

CRETAN CRASHES INTO IRo.
QUoiS, CUTTING BIG HOLE.
NARROW ESCAPES.

CHARLESTON, s. G., Apr. 3D.
Details of collision last night be-
tween the steamer Cretan, of the
Merchant and Miners line, and the
Clyde liner Irquois were made public
tonight upon the arrival of the latter
here. with gaping hole in her star
board quarter, only two feet above
the water line.
During a heavy fog at II o'clock
last night, eight miles east Of Look
out Shoals. the two steamers collid-
ed. The iron prov of the Cretan
rammed the side of the Iroquois,
crushing the heavy plates and pene-
trating through bulkhead into the
sleeping quarters of the men between
decks. The cavity smashed in the
starhoard quarter of the Iroquois was
five by ten feet. A large hole, three
feet under the water line, was made
in the bow of the Cretan, but both
steamers proceeded unassisted.
In answer to wireless calls the
ocean steamship liner City of st. Lou
is responded and stood by to render
assistance.
Despite the shock of the collision
little excitement was reported among
the passengers of the steamers. Six
men, however, occupying sleeping
quarters between decks on the Iro-
quois had a narrow escape when the
beak Of the Cretan broke through the
bulknead. The Iroquois was bound
to Charleston from New York and the
Cretan to Baltimore from Savannah.
Capt. Ingram, of the Iroquols. in
nj report of the accident, attributed
the cause of the collision to a dense
fog.

EXPLORED OCEAN
AT TWO MILES
THEORY THAT 1T CAN'T BE
DONE Is EXPLODED BY
FACTS.

An investigation made yesterday
of papers, reports and books on file
at the Philadelphia photographic Of
fee, on deep sea explorations, explod-
ed the idea of the impossibility of
reaching depth Of two miles, the
depth of the bottom of the sea at
which the Inflated steamship Titanic
now lies. The idea has been advanc-
ed that the desity of the at such a
depth IS so great as to make explora-
ton impossible, says the Philadelphia
Public Ledger.
According to a book on deep-sea
exploration by 2. L. Tanner, COM
mander of the United States Navy,
published in 1896, the British steam
ship Challenger made a dredge haul
to a depth of 1875 fathoms, or 49,
$50 feet, or in other words, depth
of four and two-ffths miles.
This work was accomplished In
1879. The challenger is described
as spar deck slowly moving vessel
of 1900 tons and 1,200-horse power
equipment. She was fitted out ex-
pressly for deep-sea exploration, and
sailed on her scientific cruise around
the world in that year. She had a
large and well-trained crew, able to
handle with alacrity the heavy hemp
en- rope which was coiled on special
ly constructed pins.
She was fitted with a dredge and
trawl, which were hoisted by steam
power. The reports show that she
made a successful haul Of the trawl
in 1850 fathoms Of water, being q
depth of $1,000 feet, or three miles
Of depth Of sea.

UNCONSCIOUS
FROM POISON
WILLIAMSON COUNTY MAN Is
FOUND IN NASHVILLE UNION
STATION.

NASHVILLE, Apr. 23.-Found un-
conscious Monday afternoon in the
Franklin interurban station from the
effects of poison, Emory Davis, from
Davis Station, Williamson county,
when resuscitated at the city hospit-
al told mysterious story of his Wis
il to the city with a stranger, alleg-
ing that he did not know when or
where be was poisoned.
The unconscious man was found
about o'clock, and q hurry call was
sent to the city hospital. After hard
work, and the use of the stomach
pump, he was revived enough to
leave for his home, later in the even
ing. He could not tell when he came
to the city, and only remembered
stepping off the car at Broadway and
Eighth avenue.
Davis stated that he went to Frank.
lin on business, and he met a man
who introduced himself as Bradley.
The stranger invited him to come to
Nashville to see the sights. When
questioned as to where he took q
drink or his meals, Davis could not
remember. He stated that he may
have been here one day, two days or
a week-he didn't know.
He said that he started out with
s12.20, but when he arrived at the
hospital he was penniless. The case
was reported to the police, but on
account Of the rambling tale told By
the man little clue to the mystery
could be obtained.

OF ALL AUTOMOBILE

SHIPMENTS into MILLIONS
Likely That $2o,o0o,ooo viii Be Sent
Abroad This Year and Auto Maya
zine Predicts Record Will Be
Broken In Quantity and Value.

M. Clement, who Is a practical au-
tomobile builder, is on his way to
this country from Paris to see if he
can find out, for the large French
motor car interests which are send
ing him, why American cars are
making such inroads on foreign cars
not only in the United States, but
on the continent.
This is the first time an emissary
from abroad has even visited Amer
lea for such purpose. Though
very little is said about it, study
of the figures on imports and ex-
ports Of motor cars, compared for a
period of years, shows good ground
for the European uneasiness. Hav-
ing made good at home, the Ameri-
can automobile and it is significant
that this branch of the foreign trade
has grown without any special ef-
fort on the part of American build
ers, who have had their handh pretty
full meeting the home demand
Government reports show that the
United States has become the great
est exporter of automobiles in the
world For the year 1901 automobile
exports in this country were valued
at $367,371 Up to the end of last
october the latest date for which
official figures have been compiled
exports of American automobiles
during 1911 were valuer in the ag-
gregate at $15,344,677. An estimate
which brings the total for the COM
fleted year up to $2O,0O0,O0 is re-
garded as reasonable.
In the meantime, while exports
have been increasing, imports have
decreased correspondingly. During
1910 imports of foreign cars fell in
value from $3,927,5OS the year before
to $2,2372Os
The Automobile Magazine predicts
that in the present year exports of
American cars will be of record
breaking proportions as regards
both quantity and value. AMI it
points to South America as a rich
field, but little cultivated heretofore.
There are American builders who
have already begun to cultivate the
South American field and with much
success.
The achievements in this direc-
ton are particularly conspicuous.
Twelve of the highest grade cars
have been shipped to South America
during the last few months The
latest two South American ship
nents to Rio de Janiero and
the other to Buenos Aires-two cars
in each shipment the finest
cars the factory could provide. In
their packing cases ready to go
aboard the ship they were probably
Two of the largest Single packages"
ever carried by sea.
Mexico Smith, until lately, had
very few American cars, has also
been taken in hand.
