Barbara II Wins
Race to Bermuda

HAMILTON, Bermuda, June IL
The motorboat Barbara II crossed
the finishing line at 25 minutes 20
seconds past 8 o'clock this morning
in the race from Philadelphia, which
started Saturday at 1880 p, m. She
was first sighted at ten minutes after
midnight.
The skipper of the Barbara II de-
clared that he had encountered north
east winds during the entire voyage
from Philadelphia. He estimated that
the boat had lost two hours owing
to the course taken being too much
to the East.
The Barbara II came into Hamil-
ton at 7:15 this morning. She had
not suffered any damage during the
run. The elapsed time of the Bar
bara II since her departure from
Philadelphia deducting forty-one
minutes for the difference of time be-
tween that city and Bermuda. is
unofficially calculated at s5 hours IA
minutes 20 seconds.

WOULD-BE SUICIDE
HAS WISH AT LAST
Reichert Dies So Suddenly That
Autopsy Alone viii Show IT
Finally Successful.

County Physician Mckenzie will
perform an autopsy today on the body
of August Reichert, would-be sui
eide, of 43S Springfield avenue, who
died suddenly early today in the City
Hospital, where he was thought to be
nearly ready to leave the place as
cured.
The mans death is perplexing and
the county physician will make the
autopsy to see if the old man did not
consume some poison to make good
his desire to die after two unSuccess-
full attempts, as a result of which he
was a patient at the hospital.
His condition from gas poisoning
sustained last Saturday in his first
suicide attempt and the slight cut on
his neck from the second was not con-
sidered serious by the hospital physi-
clans and they were astounded at his
sudden death. They now think ne
may have had some poison about him
same place and accomplished his end
when he saw that his previous at
tempts had been futile.
Last Saturday morning Re1chers,
who was 6S years old, attempted sui
eide in the plumbing shop of the
Frank A. Haselmayer Company, at
1eo Peshine avenue by inhaling illu-
minating gas through a rubber tube
and was sent to the hospital. While
in the ward later Reichert made an
Intellectual effort to end his life with
a dull bread knife, which he pro-
cured from the pantry, but succeeded
only in scratching his neck.
Reichert had no relatives in this
country, his wife having died two
years ago. He worked at Intervals
for Haselmayer and was allowed to
keep a key to the plumbing shop. He
was found by Haselmayer early last
Saturday morning with a gas tube in
his mouth

OPPONENTS ELECT 4
OUT OF 5 COMMISSIONERS
Jersey City Mayor Loses ia
Ten Out of Twelve Wards.
Hague's Victory Bitter Pill for
Executive to Swallow.
Vote of the Winners


JERSEY CITY, n. J.. June IA
complete reputation OF the Wittpenn
machine is seen here today in the
results Of the election of five com
missioners, four Of whom are anti
Wittpenn men. Only one Of the men
whom Wittpenn had backed managed
to squeeze through. He is City Col
lector A. Harry Moore, who won nth
place by beating Thomas J. Stewart
by 1889 votes.
Inc commissioners elected and their
votes are as follows: Mark NJ. Fagan.
21.S79: George F. Brensinger. 1884:
James ]. Ferris, 1S.045: Frank Hague.
lf.Sl5, and A. Harry Moore, Il, ,s5s.
The election of the Wittpenn
candidates puts the mayor out OF the
running as a possible candidate for
the Democratic guberna torial nonai-
nation The fact that the anti-Witt-
penn candidates who were elected
favor the nomination of Governor
Fielder on the Democratic ticket IS
taken as an indication that the gov
ernors chances are soaring.
and in all probability he will receive
the nomination.
It was declared today by several
prominent politicians that Witt
| penn's chances for the nomination
went down TO zero when his four
personally backed candidates for
commissioners went down to defeat.
1t was pointed out that II the witt
penn influence was at such a low ebh
in his home city he could not be ex-
peeted to make a better showing
elsewhere. and that it would be fool.
hardy for the Democrats to back his
candidacy in any part of the State.
Bitter PHI to Swallow.
The election of Frank Hague was
particularly bitter pill for Mayor
Wittpenn 10 swallow. as he had made
strenuous efforts to have him de-
feated. During the campaign Hague
had openly attacked the mayors adj
ministration and forced the executive
to take the stump Wittpenn did SO
and made Hague the target for
number of stirring attacks The
mavor's mud-slinsing seemed TO have
gained votes for his opponent.
The election yesterday was by far
the most important ever held in
Jersey City. Dissatisfied with the
Wittpenn regime the voters had pre-
viously decided to make a change in
the system of city government, and
yesterday completed the job by rout-
ing four of the Wittpenn candidates.
A large number of voters turned out,
and the interest in the contest was
keen. Despite the large outpouring
of voters the election was quiet
and orderly one not a single disturb-
anee being reported al the polls.
As soon as the polls were closed
the tabulation of the votes was start
ed and this was completed in remars-
ably short time. BY 10 o'clock The
/ result of the election was known and
flashed broadcast.
Carry Ten Ont of Twelve Wards.
It was seen that ten of the twelve
wards had been carried by the anti
Wittpenn candidates In Galy the
Sixth and the Twelfth wards did the
mayors candidates receive 4 ma
| jority vote. All the anti -W.ttpenn
