standing over a telephone message might
in part have been responsible for the
wreck. but said she was not TO blame.
She said she received telephone mes
sage from Congress Park, station west
Of her tower. Just prior to the accident
She understood the message to mean for
her 10 hold passenger train No. until a
freight train had finished switching. She
tried 10 stop No. 4. but said IL ran past
the signals some distance. Then II de-
veloped. she said, that the person who
telephoned merely wanted her 10 inform
Congress Park when train No. passed
the tower. and she let No. go on. She
then decided she should stop No. .. pas

ROOSEVELT W0MEN'S HOPE
DR.. Shaw's Suffrage Plank Will
Be in Platform.

Well. only one little thing is needed now
10 make woman suffrage a part OF the
governmental policy of this country That
little thing is the election OF Theodore
Roosevelt as President of the United
States
Yesterday Timothy L. Woodruff. who
has left straight Republicanism to become
Progressive. telegraphed the Woman
Suffrage party from The offices OF the
National Progressive party that the SUI
Yrage plank was being tackled on 10 the
platform.
That is the plank which Or. Anna How
ard Shaw, at the request OF Victor Hugo
Duras, OF Roosevelt's campaign commit
tee, formulated and sent to them.
II recites in straightforward terms that
as the fundamental idea OF a democracy
Is the right OF the citizens to choose their
representatives TO enact the laws by
which they are governed. and that right
can be secured only by the exercise OF
the suffrage. TO deprive one-half OF tho
people OF the ballot is 10 deny the FIRST
principle OF democratic government.
Mr. Duras also asked the surragtsts
what sort OF an amendment they would
Ike 10 add 10 the Constitution OF the
United states. and they replied that they
would be satisfied with one declaring
that the right 20 vote must not be de-
MED on account ~ sex.
wouldn't 1t be grand sighed one OF
the surragists. ~ We got that Tn the
Constitution? But It does seem as II
the politicians who make UP 70 US are
mostly those who don't seem TO stand
much chance OF getting in.

Baked ON TREASURERSHIP
Chairman Hilles Hopes to An
nounce Committees To-day.

Members OF the subcommittee Of the
Republican National Committee will meet
at the Waldorf at noon to-day TO select
treasurer and an advisory committee.
AT the same time, It is understood, Chair
man Hilles will be able to announce the
members Of the executive committee. The
appointment Of the head of the literary
bureau may also be announced
The members OF the subcommittee are
F. w. Estabrook, OF New Hampshire; Al
yah II. Martin, of Virginia; Newell San
ders, Of Tennessee; Thomas K. Neidrins-
haus, Of Missouri John ]. Adams. of
Iowa; S. A. Perkins, Of Washington; c.
b. Warren. OF Michigan; General Powell
Clayton, of Arkansas, and Roy o. West,
Of Illinois. General Clayton is chairman.
Chairman Hilles dined with several MEM
bers OF the committee who had reached
town last night.
1t is understood that number Of the
men who are on the subcommittee will
be named on the executive committee. The
impression prevailed last night that Will
lam Barnes. jr.. would be named chair
man Of this committee, which is to be
composed entirely of members of the ma
tional committee.
However, nothing would induce Chair
man Hilles 10 intimate who would get
any of the places. The executive com
mittee will be composed of eight or nine
members. The number OF the advisory
committee is not limited, and may be
added TO from time 10 time during the
campaign.
1t Is believed that the place of treasurer
has caused Chairman Hilles considerable
bother. 1t was understood that President
Taft had suggested Otto T. Barnard, his
close personal friend. At that time, how
ever, Mr.. Barnard declared that he would
not take the place. Mr. Hilles has seen
him twice since ne has been in the city,
and 1t is possible that he may have in
duced Mr. Barnard 10 change his mind.
II Mr. Barnard does not accept the treas
urership he will probably go on the ad-
visory committee.
Charles G.. Dawes, OF Chicago. has been
prominently mentioned for the treasurer
ship, but the report last night was that IT
had been decided that the place must be
filed by an Eastern man. John Hays
Hammond is another whose name has
been mentioned.
