"HUGHES IN 1916"
STIRS THEM UP
Marked Division of Opinion Developed
Concerning New Presidential
Suggestion.

Washington, Nov. I3.--The suggestion
that Justice Charles +. Hughes of the
supreme court be the Republican nomi-
nee for president in 1915, with Senator
Cummins of Iowa, Senator Borah OF
Idaho, or some other Progressive as the
vice presidential nominee, was discussed
with much interest and with both APP
proval and disapproval at the capitol
yesterday.
Justice Hughes, if he could be pre-
vailed upon to accept the nomination,
would be a splendid candidate" said Sem
ator Gallinger of New Hampshire, Re-
publican leader OF the Senate. HE is the
best man for the nomination thus far
suggested / believe he would sweep
the country He could carry New York,
always considered a pivotal state in the
national elections"
Senator Smoot of Utah said he
thought it a little too early to discuss
the presidential nomination. He added
81 will say, however, that Justice
Hughes would make a great president,
and would be very acceptable to the
west"
Some of the Progressive Republicans
of the Senate did not take SO kindly to
the Hughes suggestion.
aThe selection of the Republican nomi-
nee for the presidency in 1915 should be
made by the people of the United States,
in their primaries and through their del
egates to the national convention, and
not by any body of men seeking to bring
about reconciliation of the factions in
the Republican party" declared SEN
ator Bristow of Kansas. The framing
of such states will merely tend to widen
the breach"
Senator Norris, another Progressive
Republican, believes the selection of
Hughes is out of the question.
I'm the first place do not believe he
would accept the nomination and leave
the supreme bench" said the Nebraskan.
Il personally do not like the idea of tax
ing justice of the supreme court and
putting him up for the presidential Of
flee. 1t might seem to be putting the
supreme, court into politics - which
should be avoided. OF course, to place
Senator Cummins or Senator Borah on
the ticket would be all right"
One Progressive Republican declared
with much feeling:
Il have reached one conclusion at
least regarding presidential candidates.

TWO LEGAL COMPLICATIONS.
Followed Crash of Truck Through Bridge
at South RoyaltOn.


Springfield, Mass, Nov l3.-Two in
teresting legal complications have arisen
as the result of the crashing through a
bridge in South Royalton, Vt, last
Thursday of a heavy furniture truck,
which resulted in the death of Fred w.
Runnells of this city, and much specula-
tion has arisen as to their solution. The
town authorities Immediately placed an
attachment on the truck and contents,
forbidding its removal from the bed of
the small stream to which it had fallen.
They based their action on a Vermont
law which is said to make it illegal to
drive a truck weighing more than five
tons over any bridge in the state with
out special permission from the select
men, for they claim that the Runnels
truck weighs nearly seven tons. 1t is
claimed that if any damage is done to
the bridge the authorities may recover.
This situation is not however, so COM
plicated as that of Mrs. Eleanor Hale,
formerly of Chicopee, whose furniture
was being transferred from her home to

afflicted that day with neuritis in one

After supper she took what she supposed
was cascara, but the taste showed her
that she had taken the poison, and soon
she experienced terrible burning SEN
sation IN the stomach. Dir. Osgood was
called by telephone and administered
starch, followed by mustard and water,
which acted as an emetic. The fact that
Mrs. Farnum had eaten supper was in
her favor

Burlington, VT. Shortly after the acei.
dent d dam about 100 yards down
stream was closed and the waters rose
to height where the furniture on the
truck was badly damaged. A piano is
said to have been nearly ruined, while
other pieces of furniture are said to be
in bad way. When the authorities OF
the town learned that the furniture was
not the property of the truck owner,
they consented to its removal, but con-
siderable damage had already been done.
As vet no action has been brought by
Mrs. Hale for damages.

New York, Aug. 5.-One of the
greatest baseball wonders of the pres
ent generation is in the infield of the
Athletics. Fol the past season or Two
Mack's 100000 quartet" This re-
douhtahle inner line has drawn its
need Of praise. Some enthusiasts have
gone so far as to declare it the great
est collection ever developed by the
game.
There is no DENYING the fact that
the inner defense of Connie Mack's
pennant trust is OF sufficient class 10
suit the fancy of the most discerning
letic four overtop anything in the
game at present for all-round eff
cheney. To say, however. that they
are the greatest the game has ever
known is making a very strong state
ment. and one that. though hard to
refute. is open to widespread argu-
ment.
The entire Athletic inheld is young
and vigorous, and not likely to pass
out for some years. But pass it must.
With time. and then whatever infeld
happens TO possess most class of that
future period when MoInnis. Collins.
Sarry and Baker are no more, will
undoubtedly be awarded the pedestal
above the sacred memory of the fall
len kings Sport is after all a law
unto itself. Sentiment figures not the
least. The great following lives in
the present. leaving the dead past TO
the memories of its declining veterans.
To begin with, there is absolutely
no in which just comparisons
between past and present may be
made. Baseball has progressed. It's
evolution has entailed many changes
in every phase of the game. The
r1llaS 9rn NOT x-y,nf &Le,. l.
ball itself is not constructed exactly
the same. Present day players have
an equipment of artificial aids un-
dreamed in the days of a number of
the old-timers still with us. II is as
IDLE to make comparisons between the
past and present of baseball as il
would in any line of sport or life or
work. 1t is easy enough TO say that
john l.. sullivan in his prime would
have knocked the everlasting day
lights out of Jack johnson as ne
stood the day he conquered Jeffries.
Whether be could or not furnishes a
n subject for debate. But how prove
anything? Unfortunately Sullivan and
johnson We're of different periods.
The only possible manner in which
the Athletic quartet might gain such
thrust upon it would be for it to main
tain Its dignity on the field Of action
against the classy aggregations of the
past. That. Of course, is somewhat
impracticable. But for a little e
ment We do not have 10 turn back
history's page very far to get an in

A number of years ago I decided
that I could not get into golf by the

Gently at the Polo grounds during an
idle afternoon. 1t b%efuddled rather
than cleared the atmosphere. But
during the tanning bee a number of
bright infelds were uncovered that

There was no attempt at rebuttal.
