RUMORS NOT CONFIRMED
New Commissioner Might Be Of

Suggested.

Men close 10 Mayor Gaynor said yes

to Police Commissioner Waldo that
the head Of the municipal administra-
tion felt the Commissioners resigna-
ton at this time would relieve an en-
barrassing situation. i'm view of the dis
closures growing out of the Rosenthal
case. Commissioner Waldo had paid
no attention 20 such limitations. il
was said. because they had not come
directly from the Mayor in person.
The resignation of the Police Com
missioner had been asked" it WAS
understood. without The least rehcc-
tion ipon the Commissioners personal
conduct in tnr Police Department. but
it was pointed ont that with n pretty
thorough housecleaning in the de-
rartmont. which is bound TO come, as
n result Of the police graft disclosures.
a new commissioner might undertake
the future work in that department
to better advantage.
There have been several reports since
tho Rosenthal case has been aired that
commissioner Waldo would resign. but
neithor' the Mayor nor the Commis-
sioner would discuss them.
IN som" circles it is said that Will
lam J. Flynn. chief of the Secret Ser
,,ico in this city. would bc In line for
the commissionership. FLYNN had
good record while he. was Deputy
Commissioner for six months under
Commissioner Cropscy, and il is be-
rovpd that he would be in fairly re-
captive mood for the place il it were
offered TO him.
II was considered somewhat sig
nifcant Of FIynn's attitude yesterday
when nc would not say positively that
he would accept tee post of chief in
yestigator to the aldermanic invesri-
eating committee, which is TO under
take the graft inquiry. Instead, the
Secret Service man issued lengthy
statement reviewing his record In the
Police Deartment and declaring he had
practically closed gambling when he
was Deputy Police Commissioner two

BY Cable 10 The Tribune

London. Aug. 24.-Automobiling is a
pastime which IN England is not con-
/ fined TO the wealthy classes. The rea
! son Is that. with excellent roads, the
/ English have learned TO appreciate low
I powered cars which are low i'm price
not only IN the matter OF first cost but
/ IN tn" way or expense OF running and
upkcep The result Is that one finds
| everywhere roads literally crowded
with light powered cars. bnt tho feature
of tn, situation now attracting the
greatest attention il that tho majority
Of these cars are OF American manu-
facture.
American automobile builders have
been quick to sec the opportunity. and
by euterprising methods have taken
away from the British their own field.
The cry now Is that English manu-
facturers must regain at least some Of
the markets. as the vast markats Of the
United states are barred by high
tariffs

following comparison of cars imported
into England from the United states in
1909 1910 and 1911. with the exports
from England to America i'm the same
years. The imports are as follows:
190S-42S cars: value. $607 100.
Igi0-t.101 cars; value, SLO16,4S5.
19ll-3.734 cars: value, S2.96l, 800.
In parts Of cars the imported value
has increased from $4,000 in 1909 to
81. 1892 $50 in 1911.
The exports arc as follows:
19Oe-sS cars; value S29l.200
1905 cars; value, sl70.555.
.191l-60 cars: value. Sl3T5S0.
The parts exported showed an in
crease from slS,SC5 in 1909 TO sl3Ii6O
in 1911.
The figures for 1912 to June 80 show
imports Of cars of 3,32I Of a value Of
e.. 1885; parts Of cars of the value Of
sl39l68
Thus the record for the first six
months Of 1912 almost equals that of
the entire year l9ll.
Is England Out OF Her Mind?
r. W. 4. Brewer, Of the Institute of
Automobile Engineers, who has just
returned from - tour III America,
where he inspected all the more i'm
portant automobile plants. gives a
,f th. credit a tho 4 mari
can protective tariff system. He says:
"Amercan motor car manufacturers
think we are quite mad because we dO'
not have q tariff An American car is
by no means the result of cheap labor
or cheap material, for they are cars Of
excellent quality. 1t is the result of
protection in America for the motor
car industry on account of the Ameri-
can tariff. Hardly any cars are i'm
ported. and thus America has the in
dustry to herself, and with her own
markets protected can produce for the
rest OF the world
The same view is taken by r. G. In
stone, manager of the Daimler Com
pany, who says: Tho crtx of the
whole question is. Can the British
manufacturer find secured home mar
ket in any degree comparable with that
In America, fostered and assisted as it
is by a tariff on the imported vehicle?

chief concern yesterday among those
prosecuting the police graft inquiry.
Eleven out of the eighteen disorderiy
houses raided by Assistant District At

the Society for the Prevention of Crime
Rave resumed business, according 10
the information gathered by men from
the District Attorneys office.
In the course of getting evidence
against these resorts prior TO the raids
fen days ago it was ascertained that
they were controlled by members OF
tbe so-called Big Five Trust which
operated thirty-twn such houses and
had run them openly for some time,
owing to the fact. apparently. that the
rtrust" had literally paid protection
money 10 certain police officials.

If there happened to be girls they would be cross-eyed and freckied faced and en. gagged to farmers hired men.
 The matter Of romance didn't trou- ble Mir. Ascott in the feast. If he got a duck he would have 1t roasted in the inn if be didn't he would eat the landlords veal outlets He had been in this state Of mind for three days. and hadn't even seen a duck. when he thought Co go further afeld.

The current in the river is gen erally swift. varying with the rainfall. by which it is fed from some point in the interior of Palawan.
 The first American to enter the mystic river WAS the lats Governor Miller of Palawan.

The Moro agreed to guide him to the river and pilot him through it's black recesses. and did SO
 But Miller had only candles to fur nish light and his exploratory work was necessarily incomplete. He as- cended the river for R distance esti- mated at five miles and marked the walls of the main channel for the guidance of other visitors.
