NEW YORK, October 3O-It will be
noticed that in all of this avalanche of
elimination and recrimination in the cam
paign the deliveries do not come up to
specifications. The politicians get us 'all
het up" with expectation OF some fright
ful denouement, waiting for days with
bated breath for horrible revelations.

mouse.
Hennessy's charges have been partially
denied, in measure diluted The lurid
posters on the outside of his big circus
have not been substantiated by the per-
formance inside, and the "barker's'
promises have not been realized.
Here now comes John Purroy Mitchell
to take a hand In the same game. He
proposes to lift the lid and go after Can

last night he said:
Il am simply going to cut loose with
material which | have had in my pos

Commissioners Impressed
With Plan for Model Munlc-
ipal Government.
SOME OF HIS SUGGESTIONS
LIKELY TO BE FOLLOWED
District Heads Probably Will Con-
duct Inquiry Themselves if Sur
vey Is Decided Upon.

Impressed with the practicability OF
many features of the plan for the estab-
Iishment in Washington of n model mu-
nicipal government which was presented
TO them yesterday by Henry Bruere OF
the bureau of municipal research of New
York, the District of Columbia Commits
sioners have asked Mr. Bruere to come to
Washington for another conference next
month. when the plan will be more eX-
tensively gone into.
II is certain that the New York mu-
nicipal expert made a favorable impress
sion upon the District heads in his pres
entation of the scheme for the establish
ment here of government that would
serve as model for other cities, and ii Is
not unlikely that the Commissioners will
decide to adopt some of his recommends
tionS.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-10-30
Plan Based on Facts.

They are convinced. for example, that
Mr.. Brucre's arguments are not based
upon theory. but rather upon exact facts
collected by the bureau of municipal re-
search during a period of seven or eight
vears as to conditions obtaining in a
large number of American cities. This
Information would be useful to them If
they should decide to undertake sur
vey to determine what Ii any short
comings in the management of District
affairs there are to be corrected
While the Commissioners have in no
way committed themselves as to what
action they may take in regard to the
Bruere recommendations. ii is believed
that in the event of their deciding that
a survey is needed in Washington they
will undertake to conduct the inquiry
themselves without enlistins outside
assistance
Mitchell May Accompany Him.
II is not improbable that John Purroy
fusion candidate for mayor of
New York. will accompany Mr.. Bruere
to Washington for the next confer
ence. He Is interested in the proposal
TO make a model city of the National
TO the White House last spring. when
the plan which the Commissioners now
have under advisement was presented
to the President.
Now that they have begun formal
consideration Of the needs of the Dis
trict and the local government, the
Commissioners plan to keep at the
task with a view to completing reconl-
mendations for presentation to Presi-
dent Wilson at the earliest possible
date. 1t is believed to be likely that
they will have agreed upon course
of procedure by December or early
during the coming year.

The Chitina leader., 1913-08-26

Stephen Birch, who is one of the best posted men on the question of trails and the mineral resources of this section of Alaska, was a passen- ger on the Alameda to Seattle last night. Yesterday he purchased 19 horses that came up on the Sampson from Seattle. He shipped them on the morning train to Kennecott and later will use many of them to send an expedition into the new gold diggings. Mr. Birch was very much interested in starting the work of improving the trail from McCarthy's. On the subject of trails he expressed himself just before sailing, as fol- lows:
 Having been over the various routes to the Chisana gold district, can say unqualifiedly that the shortest, quickest and best route, both during summer and winter, is from McCarthy's via Scolai pass. The distance is less than 100 miles and
The Chitina leader., 1913-08-26

1t is covered with comparatively few inconveniences or hardships in from five to six days going and re- turning light in from three to four days, either foot or horseback. The mush over any other route consumes more than three times the time re- quired to go via Scolai pass.
 'As to the gold district, there are at least five creeks upon which good prospects have been found. Up to date there has not been sufficient work done to tell the extent of the field, but the indications are that it will be good and extensive camp. Men should go prepared to stay in the country, and that means that they should take ample supply of provisions, which are scarce and diff cult to purchase in the interior. The reason that so many men come out is because of the lack of provisions. ]"
The Chitina leader., 1913-08-26

Reports from Juneau indicate that Judge Fred M. Brown has disposed of all business before him and that he is about to sail for Seattle. He contemplates leaving the states on his return to Juneau on September 12. Judge R. w. Jennings is ex- pected to return to Valdez from his visit to the far Westward about September 5. If at that time he finds that there is nothing requir-

TALKS ON MAKING
OF A BUSINESS MAN
Honesty, Good habits and Practical
Training Are Requirements,
Says Speaker.

Burt Kelly addressed an assembly Of
over 100 young men, among them
high school student boys from the
stores and factories of the city, at
the Kelly assembly hall. Tuesday
night pointing ont how they can
better attain a higher business
standard.
During the vacation of two weeks
at the school considerable time has
been given to personal instructions
to young men of the community.
Kelly pointed out that there are GER
tain requirements essential in a sue
Cessful business man. Honesty, good
habits and a practical education, he
asserted are three chief requirements.
Besides urging strict honesty in bus
mess matters he laid considerable
stress on the habits Of the successful
man. He denounced cigaret smoking
and said that a man who smoked
them would never meet with success
in big business.
A complete training in the present
public schools he said was the funda-
mental bases of the good business
men of the future. He pointed TO the
principal subjects Of the schools, lay
ing particular stress on the three old
majors, reading, writing and arith-
metic" He showed the opportunity
before the boy today and urged that
he take advantage and closed by say
ing that every citizen should aid and
encourage every educational institu-
ton in the state.

The lives OF 20 other tenants who
were trapped on the blOckaded fire

flames were saved by the heroic work
OF the police and fremen.
A panic prevailed when the tenants
awakened by the shouts of the police

ways filed with suffocating clouds Of
smoke.
The dead:
Gussie Mazzin, Isaac Weinberg,
Mrs. Pearl Weinberg. Louis Kaplin,

Fire Chief KenlOn learned that the
front door of the house was never
locked and he said that IT would be
an easy matter for an incendiary to
steal in and pour oil or the woodwork
before setting il on fire.
So intense was the excitement at
the height of the fire that so police
reserves had to be rushed 10 the
scene.
The glare Of the fire shining in the
windows of Beth Israel hospital near
" caused some persons TO turn in an
alarm from the box in front of the
hospital and the arrival of more en-
gines an dother apparatus threw the
patients into a panic.

stands on an elevation midway be-
tween the village proper and the
plain. They swept a hail Of bullets
across the plain. which offers the
main approach 10 the town, and for
a time held the rebel forces in check.
As the day wore on however, the
sputtering fire from the loop holes OF
the custom house gradually dimin-

When their last cartridge had been
fired, the little handful OF federals
