SEES WHITMAN OUT
 OF NEW YORK RACE
(. 0. P. Leader Says Seabury
 Would Easily Defeat Him

Saratoga Springs, N. Y, Aug. 14.- Telephone and telegraph lines buzzed yesterday with rush" messages for Edgar T. Bracket following the re- port in a New York newspaper that MT. Bracket would support Judge Seabury for the governorship as against Governor Whitman. Senator Bracket lost no time in making his position clear. He denied that he would support Judge Seabury by say ing such step would not be neces- sary.
 T shall not decide the question of support of Governor Whitman or Judge Seabury until it arises and it Is not likely to arise, for Mr. Whit man will hardly be renominated," said MT. Bracket. ITO name him would simply be making a present of the state government to the demo- crats for the next two years He may continue his wobblings that he can defeat Judge Seabury, but in do- ing so he is about as near the truth as when, a week before election last fall, he cheeped out the prediction that the constitution was going to be
 
 ten days 1t was defeated by half million votes. Judge Seabury will defeat the governor by about the same majority if he is named.
 Do not think that any question of party regularity will elect MT. Whit man. He has absolved every repub- ican from such duty.
 Almost his first official act was to name a democrat to the great office of highway commissioner, and his whole course has been an attempt to build up little personal machine to further his political fortunes, ire spective of his party's good.
 The voters will have none of him.
 Ut may as well be recognized that in naming Judge Seabury the demo- crats have selected a splendid equipped candidate, one of the great men of the state, and any attempt to defeat him by any man of the calibre of MT. Whitman will only excite derision and invite sure defeat"
 Senator Brackets enmity toward Governor Whitman is we'll known hereabouts, but the report that he would openly support a democrat caused a sensation. MT. Bracket was one of group of influential republi- cans who dropped bomb into the Whitman camp by calling for an in quiry into the "booze' bills contract ed by officials of the governors party to the Panama-Pacifc exposition.
 Governor Whitman earned Mr. Brackets enmity when he lined up with Senator George H. Whitney in the fight Mr. Whitney is waging to depose MT. Bracket as republican leader in Saratoga county. This fight 1 now centers around Senator Whitney's 1 endeavors to be renominated. He is opposed by Frederick w. Kavanaugh, of Waterford, who was the support of the Bracket forces.
 Senator Bracket recently celebrat- ed his sixty-third birthday anniver- sary and intended to retire. His po- 1itica1 machinery was attacked, and now he is putting up the most active and sensational political battle seen in northern New York in two decades.

SAYS HE INVENTED
UNSUITABLE SHIP
But Pittsburgh Man Refuses to
Tell Of What 1t Is Made.

Pittsburgh.-A battleship that "can-
not be sunk" has been invented by
Pittsburgh man whose identity is kept
secret by his attorney, John G. Thomp-
son. The material out of which the
''unsinkable'' ship is to be manufac-
tured is also Il secret. Plans and speci-
tications have been placed in the hands
of the secretary of the navy according
to Mr.. Thompson.
Mr.. Thompson says his client has re-
ceived a letter from Secretary Daniels
stating that. as soon as the new advi-
sorry board of inventors and scientists
is organized the invention will be placed
before it.
1t is stated that the inventor depends
almost exclusively on the interior CON
struction of the ship for his results.
Under his plans all the craft of the
United States navy would remain the
same to all outward appearances, but
all would be unsuitable. They would
carry just as many guns as at present.
but their armor would not be as heavy
as now.
According to the inventor, battle
ship equipped with his invention would
be practically invincible in battle be-
cause no matter how many times the
ship would be struck the craft would
remain upright and continue to float.

care about that nice fellow. He may
not be near as nice as some young man
in your own 'neighborhood who will
make you happier and more contented
than life without friends in great
city. Ponder well, Sadie, before you

Child Walking Between Tracks.
New York.-The presence of mind
and courage of James Lavelle. mo-
torman on one of the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Bath Beach trains, saved the
life of an unidentified little girl, four
years old, who mistook the space be-
tween the rails of the West End line
for a promenade and left the sidewalk
to walk there.
Lavelle was taking his train from
Coney Island, loaded with women and
children, when near Forty-first street,
on New Utrecht avenue, he saw the
child about forty feet ahead. The
trains at this spot run on the surface
of the street. Lavelle blew his whis-
tle but the child apparently did not
hear. He damned on the emergency
brakes and then, realizing that he
could not stop in time, ran to the front
platform and, reaching forward,
caught hold of the little girl. He drop
ped her to one side. She escaped with
only few slight bruises.
