Remedies suggested ranged from .he
proposal of Mayor Couzens. Of l.

state utility comm ssloner-s that

+ F. Ingram, of Detroit, a retired
manufacturer who described himself
merely as a citizen, suggested public
ownership of the streetcar plants. a

the lines. This, he said was the only
alternative to municipal operation.
Mayor Couzens, however, contendel
that only by sociological treatment of
the matter could any real approacn
be made toward supplying the public
with comfortable and decent" trans
portation. For the present, the De
troit Mayor said. he favored NUM-

LENOX, Mass, Aug. 1.-THE num-
Der of those who will hear the funeral
rites over the body of Andrew Carnegie
at 10:30 O'Clock Thursday morning will
be greater than was expected 1t was
originally planned to have those at the

death or the lronmaster word has been
received from many former associates,
and the list of those expected has
gradually expanded.
The nature of the services had not
been decided upon tonight, pending
the return of Archibald c. Barrow,
Mrs. Carnegies secretary, from New
York. He was expected back late to-
night, but did not arrive. Further

Wyman, pastor of the Lenox Congre-
gational Church.

member of local church.
Few friends have arrived, but res

hotels this evening.
The plans for the removal of the BODY

held, as 1t is the wish of the family
that the transfer be made with as
little publicity as possible.

Shadow Brook and very few visitors
IN Lenox in addition to those who are
summerlng here. Among the guests at
the Aspinwall is perhaps the only for
mer associate of Mr.. Carnegie, who was
M ms elder and survives him. This
Chauncey M. Depcw, now in his eighty
sixth year and who spoke to-day of Mr..
carnegie as his junior. Recting how
Mr.. Carnegie had devoted millions in
efforts to prevent war; he said the
world conflict had broken Mr.. Carne-
gie's heart and that the ironmaster
was never the same after war was de-
clared.
He became obsessed with the idea"
said Mr.. Depew, that the future of the
world depended on the abolition Of
war. He created permanent fund for
the propaganda of peace. He built the
palace at The Hague for its home
Il never knew any one so interested
IN any one thing as he was in the
peace of the world. He firmly believed
that his efforts to prevent war would
succeed. When war came, surprising
in its tragedies, it broke Mr.. Carne-
gie's heart. He was never the same
again.
1t is said that Mr.. Carnegie's epitaph
will be the one suggested by himself
several years ago:

enlist in his service better men than
himself"
Estate Estimates Vary
DR.. Charles F. Thwlng, secretary Of
the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad-
vancement of Teaching, said the iron
master died poor "in the sense that he
had given away the larger part of his
fortune" 1t is considered likely the
value of the Carnegie estate will not be
known for some time. 1t is said that
Mr.. Carnegie's will contains many more
public benefactions through the Car
negie Foundation, which will also re-
ceive a reserve fund of $25,OOOOOO
Pensions for the widows and aged en-
ployes of the Pittsburgh division Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, over which
Mr.. Carnegie once was superintendent.
are also said to be provided for.
Messages of coincidence continued to
arrive in large numbers at Shadow
Brook. Hundreds came by telephone,
telegraph and mail. and still others
were left at the house personally by
neighbors and other friends of the
family.
Mrs. Carnegie remained secluded, and
none of those who called was permitted
to see her.

New-York tribune., 1919-08-13

the former Senator which had appeared
during the war had now largely dis
appeared. They said his personal fol-
lowing would do much to carry the new
party to success if he would accept the
nomination.
There Is General Grievance
Opposition party leaders arc object
ing that the new political organization
is composed too largely OF disgruntled
Democrats and that this fact will keep
conservative men out of its ranks. Most
Of them think, however, that there is a
general grievance among the Demo-
Gratis which might result in u power
full move toward renaissance of JEFF
fersonian democracy, provided the new
party is not confined within too narrow
limits.
They insist there is no chance for a
rebel faction that prcdicates its cam
paign wholly or largely on a dislike for
the present state md national leaders
Of the Democratic party.
Senator Bailey would attempt TO
forecast of what action the convention
would take or Thursday. lie expressed
belief that the platform of principles
as drawn up by the leaders, would be
adopted without much debate. The
i
are:
First Opposition to the initiative and
referendum and to measures tending
to make America direct democracy
yet in favor of direct vote of all the
people on all constitutional amend
ments
Second Belief in faithful obser-
vance Of the written Constitution and
against any measure enacted, under
whatever guise, that tends to subvert
the purpose Of the Constitution This
is aimed at war time prohibition and
the woman's primary suffrage act in
Texas.
Third-A strict adherence to the
principle of states rights This is in
protest Of the woman's suffrage amend
mcnt. Il state amendment having been
defeated by popular vote.
TO Pick It's Own Voters
Fourth Belief in the states right
to determine the qualifications of its
voters
Fifth-Opposition to the growing
tendency to regulate everything, and
leave each citizen as free as is con-
sistent with the peace of society
SiXth-A demand for halt on the
growing extravaganza OF the govern
mcnt and the various expensive
branches of super government, and
calling for a return to simplicity and
economy in public affairs.
Seventh Opposition to government
ownership or operation of the rail
roads. because it would tend to create
a political machine which no party
could control or overcome.
Eighth-Opposition to socialism of
fCr ba ctl
bitterly opposed to monopoly.
Ninth Belief in the unrestricted
right of free speech and opposition to
any law that tends to curtail that right
Tenth-Opposition to the spending
Of Texas money or the sacrifice of
Texas lives for any war which does not
involve the honor of the United States,
and against any alliance whatever with
any European power. This is framed
as in opposition to the league of ma
tionS.
Eleventh Opposition to all class
legislation and class domination in the
republic, and against any special favors
for any one.

Special Correspondence,


FORT WORTH, Tex, Aug. 12.-For
mer Senator Joseph W. Bailey returned
to Texas from Washington tonight to
take the leading part in the convention
of anti-Wilson Democrats Of Texas,
who will meet next Thursday to launch
the Texas Peoples Democratic party.
The new organization has arisen, ac-
cording to statement by its sup
porters, as protest against "Wilson-
ISM against national prohibition, and
against national woman suffrage
The party is expected to rally to its
standards all the Democrats who have
been out of sympathy with the present
Administration, as we'll as that class of
voters which has put upon President
Wilson the blame for the present in
dustrial unrest and disorder and the
disturbed business situation.
Another element which is believed to
foreshadow some measure of success
to the new party is the sudden growth
of Republican power, which has taken
many voters who formerly we're Demo-
