Florida voters cannot reasonably
expect a speedy count and early re-

history of the State, and the clerks
and Inspectors are but little, if any,
better posted as to the correct way of
counting second choice votes. Hills
borough county has taken a precau-
tionary measure with reference to
this phase of the election by the
Hillsborough County Bar Association,
at the request of the county commits
sioners, agreeing to place one at
torney at each polling place through
out the county to instruct inspectors
relative to the correctness of sec
ond choice count 1t is doubtful, how.
ever, whether many counties have
taken this step to safeguard the cor
rectness of the count Some of the
precincts in this county are so large
it is likely to take more than 4S hours
to make the count.

ANSWERS MR.. SHEATS'
ILLEGAL eleventh.
HOUR ATTACK
TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
FLORIDA:

TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
FLORIDA:
In utter defiance Of the primary
law, which prohibits any candidate
from attacking his opponent during
the last IS days before the primary.
and in violation of every principle of
fairness, Mr.. Sheats has issued at the
eleventh hour an unwarranted and in
every way false, attack upon me. Not
only has he circulated it over the |
state, but caused it to be printed in |
many of the weekly newspapers three
days before the primary, using the
last possible edition before the cleo
ton.
To publish an answer to an attack
of this kind in the daily newspapers
Of this state would bankrupt any or
binary man. Moreover it would not
reach many of the people who had
read the attack in the weekly papers,
and as the weekly papers over the
state will not print another edition
before the election, you can readily
see the evident and intended unfair
ness of Mr.. Sheats' political methods.
, Briefly let me say I am in no way
responsible for the textbook middle
> in this state. could not have been.
> Mr.. ,Sheats knows it and everyone
/ who has investigated the matter
0 knows it. The matter of adopting
! textbooks Is entirely in the hands Of
!. the State Board Of Education Of which
Mr.. Sheats Is a member and Of which
e l have never been a member served
It with committee Of ten appointed by
g Mr.. Sheats to classify the books, bu.
It I never had an opportunity to vote
either for or against the adoption OF
any book. Get the law and look Il
up If you will.
If an illegal eleventh hour attach
: of this kind can be made to count FOL
anything, there is no use for an hon
est man to oppose the present Stat'
Superintendent, and I appeal to tn
fairness of the voters of Florida tt
IN pay no attention to false attack 0
ut this kind, made three days before tn
election and which could have bee
made months ago, as the entire at
tack is based on things that happene
a year ago.
ne The absurdity Of such an attac
and the unfair methods by which
is made ought to be enough to COZ
denim in the eyes OF every fair-mint
ed person, a man who, although ha'
ing served for twenty years as Stat
-. Superintendent is unable to run Q
. his own record but prefers vicious
to attack his opponent.

Refuses to Play Poker
With Strangers; Stabbed
Shopkeeper Flees and Is P1r-
sued; Others Shoot One and
Cantasre Another SuspecS

Three men, one of them more than
six feet tall, entered Philip Gordon's
candy shop at 127 Forsyth Street about
$50 o'clock yesterday morning and in.
vitcd him to join them in q game of

three set upon him, one of them stab
blng the shopkeeper in the chest.
Needless of his wound, Gordon broke
away and ran to Herman Zeller's tea
room at 81 Forsyth Street, In front of
which several men were sitting. One
of them interrupted Gordon to tell him
he was stabbed. At sight of the blood
Gordon fell senseless.
The three men had pursued him and
came up at this point, causing those
seated outside the tea room to take
hasty refuge inside. Max Renner. Of
100 Forsyth Street, one Of those seated
inside, ran out, however, on learning
of the attack on Gordon and grappled
with tall man he met at the door.
The other two ran and were pursued
by the group, which a moment before
had fed from them. In the chase one
of the pursuers fired five shots from q
revolver and Matthew Collins, of 242
East Eighty-fourth Street, who was
running ahead of the crowd, fell with
a bullet in his groin.
Renner's prisoner said he was Tobias
Levine, of 221 Division Street. He was
locked up at the Clinton Street police
station, charged with felonious assault
and attempted robbery. Collins, who
was taken to Gouverneur Hospital, also
was arrested. Gordon also was taken
to Gouverneur Hospital.

AS Runaway Trolley
Hits Tree at Ithaca
Members of Cornell Football
Squad i'm Fatal Collision;
MotCTman Loses Control
of Car Going Up Steep Hill

ITHACA, N. Y, Sept. 16.-One man
was killed and twenty persons were
injured, three perhaps fatally, this af-
ternoon, when runaway streetcar
laden with passengers, many of whom
were members Of the Cornell football
squad on thir way to practice, crashed
four blocks.
The dead man is ]. c. Berger, of
Springville, N. Y.
One Of the most seriously injured is
A. G: Nosek, of Cleveland, candidate
for the Cornell football eleven. His in
juries are internal. The other two
whose injuries the physicians say may
be fatal are Bergers wife, who has
severe spinal injuries, and Mrs. Mary
Moe, of this city, whose skull was
fractured when she jumped.
The car got out of control as 1t was
ascending the steep Eddy Street grade
and had just reached the Eddy Street
gate to the university grounds, when,
according to the motorman, something
snapped and the car began to back
down the grade.
After it had run four blocks, gather
ing momentum as it descended, the car
jumped the track and crashed into q
tree, a few feet short of siXty-foot
embankment.
The impact split the car half it's
length and threw the passengers in all
directions.
Some persons jumped as soon as the
car began to run away. The motorman,
who stuck to his post, suffered several
fractured ribs and broken leg.
