COLONEL SEES BULL
MOOSERS' FINISH
Breaks Between Leaders of the
Third Party Movement In
dicates Its Collapse

In a special despatch from Washing
ton to-day the Philadelphia Press says:
Many political observers who used to
know Colonel Roosevelt when he was
in the White House were not in the
least surprised at the announcement it
would be impossible for him to enter
the campaign this Fall.
"These observers are satisfied the Col
onelS announcement is his first definite
step in general plan to land back in
the Republican party as its standard
TT developed to-day that Colonel
Roosevelt lost much of his enthusiasm
for the Progressive party when he
came to Washington to lecture on the
talk politics with his followers.
After looking over his little band in
Congress, the Colonel gave friends the
impression he was forced to the conclu-
from such a lineup. The Colonel was
disappointed in the caliber of his fol-
lowing and decided 1t would be well to
let the little organization dissolve
Many of the Democrats from New
York, New England and the Middle
defeated next November. Some of these
men represent normal Republican dis
tricts. They came to Congress as re-
suit of the activities of Bull Moose
vote. They had hoped the big Bull
Moose and all the little Bull Mooses'
would make active campaigns this Fall.
They are now satisfied that most of
those who voted for the Bull Moose
candidates in 1912 will fall back into
the Republican lineup this year"
The New York Sun to-day has the
following: War against George w.
Perkins retention of the chairmanship p
of the National Progressive Committee
was opened in two quarters yesterday.
"A resolution demanding his retire
ment was offered at the meeting of the
New Jersey State Committee of the
Progressive party but was tabled after
eX-State Senator Colby pleaded for de-
lay in taking action until after Colonel
Roosevelt's return home.
"Over in Pennsylvania Clifford Pin
chot, who is the Pennsylvania candidate
for United States Senator. declared in
favor of reading Mr. Perkins out of the
party. He didn't want Mr. Perkins to
labor for him in Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Perkins, when told of Mr.. Pin
that he had nothing to say"

RIVER FILL PLAN
WILL Be OPPOSED
BY COMMISSIONERS
Place Proposed to Dump Subway
Dirt May Be Made Into Park
Some Day

Neither the City Planning Commits
sion nor M. Harvey Taylor, commits
sloner of parks and public property. it
is understood, will approve the re-
quest of Sucker Brothers Construc-
tlon company that it be permitted to
qll in the River Front from Mulberry
to Market streets with the earth eX-
caVated from the Mulberry street sub
ways. The letter asking the necessary
permission was received by the city
officials from the contractors to-day.
If the Planning Commission meets
Monday evening the matter will be
placed before it at that time. Mr..
Taylor is opposed to the plan because
1t will mean the filling in of a section
that it was one day hoped to convert
into a secondary park
Thus far the weather has been most
favorable for pushing the public work
throughout the city. All the contrac-
tors are on the job and much headway
Is being made on the several undertake
ings. Sunday is the inspection day of
the public and the thousands who walk
along the River Front from Iron alley
to Division street every pleasant Sun
day will see for themselves how neces-
sary is the material from the subway
excavations at Mulberry street for the
filling out of the narrow stretches
along the River Front. Now that the
wall and steps are taking form from
Calder street northward, the necessity
for giving a proper slope from the top
of the embankment to the depressed
park east of the steps will be apparent
to even the casual observer
1t is regarded as most unwise to per-
NIT this great quantity of material to
disappear without any return to the
city whatever and at the future cost
of the municipality. Now is regarded
as the time when these thousands of
loads of dirt should be utilized mas
much as within the year it will be
necessary to complete the parking Of
the river slope from the top of the
embankment to the space at its foot
Lite filling will be necessary except
in one or two spots from Calder street
to Maclay, but beyond that point suf-
ficient filling will be necessary TO
create walk along the western curb
line.
1t is expected that the Sucker
Brothers Construction company will
in the northern part of the city so
that their important contract may be
completed, if possible, this year. Su-
perintendent of Parks and Play
grounds Taylor cooperating with Su-
perintendent of Highways and Public
Works Lynch, will be all to follow up
the work on the steps by proper treat
ment in the wa" of grading the slope
and perhaps some of the planting this
year. An appropriation of 100000
was made for the parks and play
grounds and it is pointed out that part
of this appropriation should go to the
completion of the river stretches
There is increasing opposition to the
proposition to destroy the park be-
tween Market and IIulberry streets by
allowing the contractors to dump the
dirt from the subway excavations in
that section.
