SULzER CHOICE BREAKS
MOOSE-REPUBlICAN SLATE
Both Had Agreed on Kopp, but
Progressives Shifted-Many
Bargains Not Kept.

The time for making substitutions Of
candidates where the original nominees
had declined expired at midnight last
nisht. The agreement that had been made
between the Republican and the Pro-
gressive leaders to fuse on certain alder
manic and Assembly candidates, to the
end that the fusion forces should retain
control OF the Board OF Aldermen, fell
down in several places.
The most sensational breaking OF the
slate was the designation OF William Sui
ger for the Assembly by the Progressives
in the 9th District, although they had
promised TO nominate Harry Kopp, the
Republican. When his certificate OF nom
.nation was fled at the Board OF Elections
the address Of Sulzer was given as NO. e'S
broadway. which is the Broadway Cen
trail Hotel
In the same district the Progressives
failed TO indorse Alderman Frank L.
Dotzler, the Republican nominee, accord
ing TO agreement. They renamed Max
Slender, the Progressive leader OF the
district.
The Progressives carried out their bar
gain to indorse Alderman H. II. Curran.
in the 25th Assembly District; Alderman
John II. Boschen. in the 2Sd, and Alder
man Oscar Igstaedter In the 2lst.
They failed to carry out their bargain
also in the Sth. 10Th and 9th districts.
In the sth they named Louis Johnson to
take the place OF Richard NJ. Neustadt.
both Progressives, as the aldermanic can
ddate
In the 18th the Progressives renamed
James Walsh for the Board OF Aldermen
although they had promised TO name AL
derman William ID. Brush, the Repub-
lican candidate. In the 10Th they re-
named BENJAMIN Seidenstein.
Because the Progressives had broken
the agreement in so many places the Re-
publicans held they were absolved from
their end. They did. however, indorse
Assemblyman Sol Surrin. the Progress
sive candidate in the Sth, in place OF
Joshua S. Shapiro. their original candi-
date. They renominated their original
candidates for the Assembly In the 18th
and 26th, Charles II. Wilson and Isaac
Gutman, respectively.

NELSON'S SUPREME PRAYER
Diary Entry on Day of Battle
Shows Him Devout.
TBy Cable to The Tribune I

London, Oct. 2l.-There was issued
last night. the eve OF the anniversary
of the Battle OF Trafalgar, the report
OF the special committee appointed by
the Admiralty to examine and consider
the evidence relating TO the tactics Of
Nelson. The report reconstructs the
scene OF the battle and the disposition
Of the rival fleets. 1t Is. perhaps more
interesting to the student Of naval tao
tics than to the general reader, but It
contains the following extract from
Nelson's dairy, written ON the morning
Of Monday. October u. 1905, which is
very characteristics Of the great sailor
whose memory is being honored in Eng
land to-day:
AT daylight / saw the enemy's
combined fleet from east to east
southeast. | bore away and made the
signal for the order Of sailing and TO
prepare for battle. May the great
God, whom ! worship, grant to my
country and for the benefit Of Europe
In general great and glorious victory.
and may no misconduct in any one
tarnish it, and may humanity after the
victory be the predominant feature in
the British fleet! For myself individ-
ually. commit my life 10 Him who
made me, and may His blessing light
upon my endeavors for serving my
l,t f,.1I lot
myself and the just cause which is in
trusted me to defend. Amen. Amen

Mexican Dictator Adds so Per
Cent to All Duties on
Ten Days Notice.
TO RAISE NEEDED REVENUE
Decree Causes FURRY in Com.
mercial Circles, and Extra
Cost of Living May Arouse
Wide Discomfort.
fBy Cable 70 The Tribune.

Mexico City, Oct. 2O.-The Huerta gov.
eminent has published decree orderIn,
a 30 per cent increase on import duties
The increased schedule goes into effect in
ten days.
This action has caused a furry in com.
mercial circles. especially as no time Is
allowed in which merchants can lay in a
supply OF foreign goods before the new
rates go into effect.
Import duties were recently raised 10 per
cent, and as the new 80 per cent raise Is
calculated on the basis Of the previous in
crease, the total increase on the original
rates is IS per cent.
In many lines the new duties will be
prohibitive. and in other lines the mer.
chants will seek compensation by raising
prices. Probably, too, domestic goods will
become dea 'er in sympathy, and the in.
creased COSY OF living may cause vide
spread discomfort.
This decree - the first important use
made by Huerta in financial matters Of
the legislative power assumed by him
when he dissolved Congress.
Rebate for Advance Payment.
The new duties levied by the government
are payable in special certificates, and
merchants have been informed in a de-
cree that they can secure ten per cent
rebate on the cost of these certificates
by purchasing them before November
next In this way the government hopes
to secure speedily much needed revenue
for urgent current needs.
The decree also declares that II the new
import duties are repealed later all Ger.
tiicates remaining in the possession Of
merchants will be received In payment Of
other federal taxes at their par value.
It Is rumored that Jose Maria Lozano
Minister of Communications, has been
seriously wounded by an employe in his
department end that every effort is be-
ing made to hush up the affair
II is asserted that Senior Lozano was
shot three times and that the tragedy
grew out OF a domestic scandal
Germans as Hostages.
The holding of forty-three Germans ii
Torreon by General Francisco Villa as
hostages against an attack By the fed
eral forces has aroused the German gov.
eminent TO make strong demands on the
Mexican Foreign Offie to insure their
safety.
General villa permitted the Americans
to depart from Torreon, but held the
Germans, about the same number OF
French residents, ten or twelve British
subjects and several Spaniards, declsr-
ing that his purpose was TO use them az
foil to deter the federals from attack
ing the city. He also let 1t be known,
according to advices received here, that
they would be sacrificed unless the effort
to retake Torreon was abandoned.
What action the Foreign once Will
take has not yet been determined.

PAGE CONFERS ON MEXICO
Discusses Affairs with British
Foreign Office.

London. Oct Cavalier II. Page. the
United States Ambassador. discussed the
situation in Mexico with the officials Of
the British Foreign Office this afternoon.
The view OF the British government is
that the policy OF Sir Lionel Garden. the
British Minister to Mexico. is not antago-
nistic 10 the point OF view OF the Unite1
States, and II pointed out as merely CO.
incidence that the minister presented his
credentials simultaneously with President
Huerta's declaration OF a dictatorship.
The fact that Great Britain had recog-
nized Huerta rendered II necessary IL Is
argued here. that the British Minister
should present his letters without delay
and so obtain an official standing.
