0.-W. Co. Plans Big Drainage Tunnel

Crews of men are at work on sur
veys and preliminary plans for the
construction of a gigantic drainage
system, which the o. w. R. & N. Co.
proposes to build for the protection of
their tracts just west of Cascade
Locks. Great subterraneans streams
at this point have during past years
caused the railroad company much
trouble. The force of the underground
water has at times shifted the surface
of the earth over considerable area
and has necessitated the re-alignment
Of the companys' tracks. The shift
ing, as is evidenced by the bent trunks
of giant frs, has continued Throughout
many years.
The estimated cost of the drainage
work, which will include large tunnel
with numerous laterals. is 500, 900.

Saear Scarcity Hurts Apple Sales

In a letter from New York city H.
F. Davidson states that the sugar
shortage prevailing in eastern cities is
having serious effect on the move
ment of apples.
Consumers, he writes, unable to
get sugar to sweeten them, are not
buying any apples for cooking pur-
poses. The condition naturally limits
sales to fruit that will be eaten raw
from hand.

Rush-McAvoy Recount
Shows Little Change
Independent Makes Net Gain
of 3O8 in Three AS
sembly Districts

The recount Of the ballots cast in
the Rush McAvoy contest for the Su-
preme Court nomination In the recent
Democratic primaries, which started
Yesterday at the Board OF Elections,
did not indicate any material changes
in the result of the official count. The
ballot boxes in the 1st, I'd and 4th As
sembly districts had been opened up
last night and showed net gain Of
3Os votes for Thomas E. Rush, who
bolted Tammany and ran independent
~ against John V. McAyoy, the Muir
ply candidate.
The McAvoy majority on the official
returns was 1920. Mr.. Rush issued
a statement, in which he pointed out
the discrepancies found. In the three
Assembly districts counted he declared
there had been several hundred ballots
illegally cast for McEvoy. besides the
net gains shown for Rush. There were
also about $50 ballots clearly showing
"erasures," according to Mr., Rush. to-
gether with large number of protest
ed ballots which should have been
marked for identification.
Herbert r. Limburg, counsel for Mr..
McAvoy, issued a statement last night
in which he said that it was apparent
from the inspection of the ballots so
far that the Democratic primaries had
been conducted with general fairness
and honesty.

Bronx Republicans
For Mitchell Ticket
Fusion Unanimously Endorsed
by County Committee-Ben-
nett Not Mentioned

The Bronx County Republican Com
mittee. at a special meeting last night.
unanimously adopted resolutions IN
dorsing Mayor Mitchell and the entire
Fusion ticket The name Of william
NJ. Bennett, straight Republican nom
inee for Mayor, did not figure IN the
deliberations.
The Bronx committee is the first 10
the five Republican county committees
TO go intellectually on record for
Mayor Mitchell. The New York County
Republican Committee, at its last meet
ing. adopted a resolution repudiating
Bennett, but did not formally indorse
the Mayor. The county committees in
Kings, Queens and Richmond have
failed to take any action in the Mitchell
Bennett matter.
John Knewitz. chairman Of the COM
mittee, introduced the resolution,
which follows:
Whereas, IL is a principle Of the
Republican party to achieve non-par-
tisanship in municipal government, and
particularly in the municipal govern
ment Of the City of New York; and,
"Whereas, The unparalleled accom-
plishments Of the present Fusion mu-
niciDal officers warrant the approval
Of the entire electorate of the city and
their retention in office; and,
Whereas, 1t has been recommended
TO the voters of the city by the citi-
zens of all parties that Fusion be again
achieved for the principal officers of
our city government; and,
Whereas, Many of our most prom
inent Republicans have declared for
John Purroy Mitchell; therefore, be it,
Resolved, by the Republican County
Committee of The Bronx, That it is for
the best interests of the city and OF
Bronx County that John Prrroy Mitchell
be supported for Mayor; and be it fur
thcr.
Resolved, That the individual mem
ber9 of this committee urge the voters
in their respective election districts TO
cast their votes on Election Day for
Mayor Mitchell and for all the candi-
dates of the Fusion ticket, and that we
pledge our active support of their can
didacy and do all in our power to bring
about their election"

Upton Ban Unfair,
Declares Hillquit
Criticises General Bells
Refusal to Let Him
Speak at Camp

The managers of the Socialist cam
paign committee received yesterday
from Major General Bell, in command
at Camp Upton, a refusal of their re-
quest to permit Morris Hillquit, Social
ist candidate for Mayor, to address the
men at the camp. Mr.. Hillquit COM
mented in part as follows on Major
General Bells response:
II believe that General Bells action
was grossly unfair 70 the people OF the
city and to the drafted men. In cast
ing their votes in the coming election
the drafted men will act as citizens and
not as soldiers, and as citizens they are
entitled to the same first-hand knowl-
edge of contending parties and candi-
dates as the civilian citizens.
at is particularly regrettable that
General Bell should have refused a
hearing to the Socialist candidate IN
this campaign, after having publicly an
nounced that ne would allow all party
candidates 10 address the soldiers IN
Camp Upton. By refusing a hearing TO
one candidate and granting it TO others
the general Is ldhAub
advantage Of his position OF military
authority.
81 wanted to speak 10 the boys at
Camp Upton not only because my can
didacy is as important 20 them as 1t Is
TO the civilian voters Of this city, but
also because my election would con
tribute substantial encouragement &c
the growing forces of struggling de-
mocracy in Germany"
The Hillquit campaign committee has
arranged for mass meeting to-day a.
! p. m. at Cooper Union, under the
auspices Of the joint board Of the
Cloak. Skirt and Refer Makers Union:
of greater New York, at which Mr.. Hill
quit and the other candidates on the
Socialist ticket will speak.
Mr.. Hillquit will address a meeting
tonight at Bryant Hall, Sixth Avenue
and Forty-second Street, where the Re-
publican County Committee holds It's
regular monthly meetings, and another
meeting at Niblo's Garden, 10th Street
and Third Avenue.

Bennett Says Hylan
Is Unfit To Be Mayor
Tells Brooklyn Audiences
Moneybund Is Fight
ing Him

William VI. Bennett, the Republican
candidate for Mayor, will so to Camp
Upton to-day with Judge Selah B.
Strong, of Brooklyn, and make four
speeches TO the soldiers at the camp.
MIR. Bennett spoke last night at Palm
Garden, Hamburg and Greene Avenues,
Brooklyn.
The Republican candidate discussed
the Republican primary frauds IN Man
haitian and declared there had been
equally "gross frauds committed IN
the Democratic primaries in Manhattan
and BROOKLYN. Mr.. Bennett called upon
Mavor Mitchell to do something to To-
cate the imam higher up" who was re-
sponsible for the Republican primary
frauds.
The speaker charged that there were
men In this audience who know that
offers of money have been made to cleo
ton district captains and workers IN
order 10 get them to betray the Repuo-
lican party and their neighbors to the
'Moneybund.' Mr. Bennett character
lied Judge John F. Hylan, the Tam
many candidate, as unfit to be Mayor.
There has been considerable in
spired talk in the newspapers" said
Mr. Bennett, "as to the alleged strength
OF the Socialist candidate. II this Is
true, then my candidacy is the only
candidacy which offers a refuge TO
those who desire at the same time to
save the city from Tammany Hall and
from Socialism. This fact will appear
more and more strongly as Election
Day approaches. After speaking in va
rious parts Of the city | confidently
predict that shall carry every borough
in the City of New York"

Concrete Boat Launched
Michigan Lumberman Invents
New Idea in Motor Craft

CHICAGO, Oct. 10. A concrete
motor boat was launched to-day from
the Kraft shipbuilding yard, and the
event is declared by maritime authori-
ties TO mark the beginning of a new
era in shipbuilding. The concrete
motor boat is the work Of Walter Dow
sey, a lumberman at Iron River, Mich.
Its construction was more or less acct
dental 1t will be taken TO the South
Shore Country Club and viewed by
members tomorrow. If all goes well
it will be on inspection in the Jackson
Park yacht harbor, and Sunday it will
be taken 10 the municipal pier for for
nal presentation to the naval reserve.
The boat is Is feet 6 inches long and
has a beam Of feet inches. 1t is
quarters of an inch thick and is
driven by six-horsepower motor. Mr..
Dowsey constructed the boat as he did
because he had few bags of cement
and found wood hard to get Upon a
light steel frame and a one-quarter inch
wire mesh he spread two layers of con-
crete. The concrete was applied with a
trowel.
The Emergency Fleet Corporation is
investigating the possibilities of using
concrete for large boats as a result of
the lumberman's success.

man who refused 10 accept Mayor Nit

strike last spring, on the ground that
the strike was none Of the city's bust
ness.
Mr.. Hylan, accompanied by J. NJ.

white car before the headquarters at
281 Fifth Avenue, shortly before noon.
A movie operator was stationed at the
entrance of the building. and as the

Afterward Secretary O'Connor was
asked:
"Does this mean a movie campaign
for Judge Hylan on the part Of the
manufacturers
"Yes," he said. I'VE have more than
s25,0O0 already"
"Why are the garment manufact-
urers supporting Judge Hylan?"
"Why, because we are Democrats, |
suppose" he laughed.
"And it has nothing to do with the
Mayors attitude at the time OF the
strike ?"
"Oh. that's ell forgotten now" was
the answer.
When Emory R. Buekner, campaign
manager for the Mayor, was informed
of Judge Hylsns movie venture, ne re-
marked:
well, they won't let him talk, so he
goes to the movies and serves notice
on organized labor that he is against
it. There Is no longer any reason why
organized labor should vote for the
movie star"
