BURCH GRAVES
 FALLS FROM POLE
Young Ensley Man Who Has Made Wireless Telegraph Station Has
 Serious Accident

Burch Graves, young electrician and trouble man" for the Peoples Home Telephone company, who resides at Ems ley. met with an accident yesterday through the breakage of telephone pole on the top of which he was at work. The accident occurred near the commissary at Pratt City. MT. Graves had climbed the pole and was at work trying to To- cate defect in the telephone wire, when without the slightest worning, the pole snapped at the bottom and fell. He was hurled to the ground with much violence, the pols falling on him.
 Quick assistance was rendered. and he was carried to the Carraway hospital at Pratt City in an unconscious. condition. On examination, however it was found that no bones had been broken, but the young man was badly bruised up. At a late hour last night he was resting well.
 The cause of the breakage of the pole was ascribed to the fact that it was lo- cated in d place where water collected, and had routed close to the ground The supposition is that the weight of MT. Graves was the immediate cause of the snappng of the pole.
 Mir. Graves is well known in electrical circles. and will be remembered as the young man who has rigged up a wireless telepragh station in his rooms at 210; Avenue c, by which he receives mes- sages from all parts of the country.

WHAT ROOSEVELT
 DID SAY PUzzL|NG

New York. January Measurements that have appeared in certain papers are without foundation, Lawrence Ab= bolt said today, in connection with the recently published Roosevelt criticism purporting to quote him as to Mr. Roosevelts candidacy. Mr. Roosevelt will himself make no statement. he said.
 ''I am certain no one was authorized at the Adine club to break faith" he said. The statements appearing are absolutely without foundation
 New York, January 10.-Just what possible candidacy for the presidency in his speech at the Aldine club last night is a question. This is vexing question also in New York City. News paper men were barred from the gath ef.ng at the ex-presidents request and the account of his speech given this morning by those who heard him va- ried widely.
 The first man to leave the club. quoted the ex-president as saying:
 q am not a candidate for the presi : dency, but if nominated I will run x The next man out declared Roose- velt had said:
 T am not a candidate; I will not be candidate; l do not want to be a can didate.'
 A third man declared that all MT. Roosevelt said was:
 T am the most misrepresented man in America"

A WORD FOR "soUEALERs."

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: I notice In this mornings paper
that the case Of the "squealers," so-called
In your paper, Is likely to be made
warm" In many places and that they
are to be henceforth ciassed as undesir-
able citizens. Now. this may be news,
but while Mr.. Whitman is receiving well
deserved commentator. as also his as
sistants, would II not be we'll for repu-
table newspapers to commend the action
Of tn. so-called "squealer"?
note a great anxiety to secure wit
nesses whose testimony, with a good deal
Of danger to themselves, may help to rid
society OF criminals and a complete lack
OF interest in what may then happen to
them. Mr.. Whitman has, by freeing these
men. shown his appreciation OF their value
to society In what they have done. Would
II not be we'll II the great newspaper read
ing public were exhorted to stand by
these "squealers," In 80 far as they had
done right thing and might be disposed
to continue? Unless an atmosphere diff
ferent from what exists can be some
how created It will always be difficult
and many times impossible to get valuable
evidence to safeguard the interests of the
public. D. A. JORDAN.

MORAL RESPONSIBILITY.

A washer In a city garage, without a
chauffeur's license, having taken out a
taxicab to answer an emergency call,
ran down q boy and killed him. The
driver of the car is said to have reached
the mature age Of eighteen years. Inc
proprietors of the garage where he was
employed say that he frequently an
swered emergency calls when there were
no duly licensed chauffeurs In the place.
and contend that, though he was I'M
licensed, such activity was within the
law. as he was not making his living
as q chauffeur and consequently needed
no license.
The boy chauffeur who was no chauf-
feur will probably have to answer
charge Of manslaughter. There re-
mains the responsibility Of bis employ
ers for the childs death. 1t is just
possible they might be held 10 be tech
nically correct in their declaration that
he needed no license, and a court decl-
sion regarding the meaning of the word
chauffeur and a judicial interpreta-
ton Of such a persons duties and the
number Of times he must drive motor
car in order to be deemed a chauffeur
may be necessary to determine that
Certainly he violated the spirit OF the
law when, unlicensed, he took out
motor car for hire, and II he did II fire.
Quently he probably violated the letter
Of the law. In permitting him to do 1t
his employers shared with him the
moral responsibility. Unless 1t can be
adequately impressed on chautfeurs,
owners, garage keepers and every one
who has to do with operating and main
tanning automobiles that their safety
and the safety of the public lie In keep
ing within the spirit as well as the
letter Of the law there can be no limit
put to destruction by the motor car
Juggernaut.

THE ASSAY OFFICE.

The suggestion Of the Treasury De-
partment officials that either the city
or some historical society should take
over and preserve the facade Of the old
Assay Office is well worthy Of consid-
GRAFTON. New York has far too few
relics Of its earlier days. The growth
Of the city has made inevitable the de-
struction of many buildings Of historic
and architectural interest, regardless
Of sentiment. They fall victims not to
philistinism, but TO the imperative prac-
teal needs of the people. II Is possible
TO save q few examples Of the Oldttme
New York, such as Fraunces's Tavern,
the Jumel Mansion, the City Hall, St
Paul's Chapel-can we say St Johns
Chapel? But in general the past must
yield to the present. We cannot, for
instance, In this case expect the gov
eminent to continue TO use a structure
which has become entirely unsuited to
its needs The Assay Office work must
go on adjacent to the Sub Treasury, a
building Of much greater architectural
interest. The government considered
following the example of the National
City Bank, which so admirably pre-
served the best features Of the old Gus
tom House in enlarging 1t, and planned
to incorporate the old facade in new
Assay Office. But this was found i'm
practicable. II would, however, not be
difficult TO take down this FACADE and
rebuild II on some other site. II would
be suitable for a branch library, or
small Office building, or police station,
or any one of variety Of public uses
The building is worth preserving as
a pleasing example Of our early nine
teenth century architecture, and also
as a reminder Of what the old financial
district looked like. 1t is the oldest
building in Wall street, having been
built in 1923 for the New York branch
of the United States Bank, which was
the cause Of so much political contro-
versy and which Andrew Jackson killed.
