CORTELYOU REPORTS ON
EMPIRE STATE AFFAIRS
Considerable Dissatisfaction Expressed
With Chairman Woodruff's Manage
ment of the Campaign Warning
Against Apathy to Be Sent Out.
By JOHN E. MONK.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 29. The po
litical situation in the state of ; New
York and throughout the country gen
erally was discussed at length in a con
ference held at the white house today.
i Those who participated were the presi
dent, Secretary of State Root and Post-
master-General Cortolyou.
The lutter spent three or four days in
New York .last week in close conference
with the Republican managers, and it is
understood he made, a comprehensive re-
!ort to the president concerning the out
ook. It may be staled with authority,
that while the administration' is not en
tirely sutislicd with conditions in '.the
empire state, the president and his ad
visers are satisfied that Charles E.
Hughes will be elected, and by a com
fortable majority.
Some criticism of the management of
the campaign by Republican Chairman
Timothy E. Woodrulf is heard in these
-parts. The complaint i.-t made that to a
considerable extent Hearst has been per
mitted to run away with the labor vote;
that too little, attention has been de
voted by the Kcpuh'.'cans to Republican
strongholds and that oh the whole the
aggressiveness and snap usually present
5n the management of political lights in
New .'York have been Licking this year.
Will Be Whirlwind Finish.
This, the closing week of the cam
"Jiaign,, vt ill witness a whirlwiud finish
in New York state. Secretary Root is
scheduled to make a speech at I'thica on
Thursday. It is expected to be the most
noteworthy political nddicss of the dis
tinguished New Yorker's public career.
It will be made plain to the voters of
the state in the strongest possible lan
guage that it is the sincere wish of
' President Roosevelt that Charles E.
Hughes shall be elected by a good ma
jority. "A warning to Republicans" is about
to be sent out by Chairman James S.
Sherman, of the congressional commit
tee. While Chairman Sherman is not
alarmed over the prospects, he does not
propose to take any chances with gen
eral apathy. Two million postals will
be dumped in the mails this week warn
ing Republicans that "there is great
danger through apathy of losing the next
Louse of representatives."
"It was lost in 1800," continues the
warning, ''and in 1892 the Democrats
gained the presidency, the senate and
Louse, and the people got the Wilson
Gorman tariff and run in."
"What Will Be Voted For. -Next
Tuesday there will be elections
in forty-two states and three territo
ries. Oregon, Maine and Vermont Lave

bers of the sixtieth congress. In

"There have been two real objects in

"Wealthy men have been pilloried in

Peace With Its Employes.
Knoxville, Tenn., Oct. 20.- -in response
to a telegraphic tender of -its' good of
fices in the hopo of' bringing about a
settlement of the Rtrike - of machinists
in the local shops of the 'Suit hem rail
way, the Knoxville board of t nule today
received the following telegram from 1 1.
B. Spencer, general manager of the
Southern: '
The company and its oMic"is ap
preciate fully the interest of Knox-,
ville in th cmachinists' strike, nnd we
are desirous of settling it promptly
and equitably. It has been agreed
at the suggestion of the Ibm. Seth
Low, chairman of the National Civic
Federation,- that our -'president will

WOULD NOT SHAVE
NONUNION MEN
; : -'
Special to Daily Industrial Sews.
-Salisbury, X. C., Oct. 20. The strike
situation assumed a shape Saturday
night that is unique in every sense of the
word. If there has been -anything like
it, little has been heard of it.
On this night O. W. Haves and C. L.
Turner, two foremen, who refused to go
out on tho recent machinists strike,
came up town for a shave. They werit
into one of the shops that belongs to
tne ..barbers Lnion and were told that
they could not be shaved there. The
men went to another and were turned
down.
Later they found a man who had for
merly owned one of the shops and were
told by him that he thought they could
be waited, on in his shop. The proprie
tor said he would be glad to do it, and
then the other barbers refused to work
if the men were shaved there. Fearing
that thero would be a tonsorial strike,
the proprietor had to refuse the" men.
It seems now that there will be some
thing interesting to come of this. The
strikers have had, nearly all the way,
the sympathy ot the townspeople, cs
peeially until the refusal of arbitration.
. i no action ot t no Darners esaturaay
night will 'undoubtedly cause an open
shop to be established here, and efforts
are now being made to lind a 'place for
the proposed new institution.
The-talk of a -sympathetic strike seems
to diminish and the chance that the ma
chinists will go back upon their terms
seems afar.
The Southern is. -adding to its work
ing force and the outlook is now decid
edly against those who walked out. They
hope to win in the long run, but they
do not bank longer upon an early settle
ment in their favor.
Not a great number of the men have
left, but many are packet! up and rcadv
to leave when it becomes certain that
they cannot go back. The places are
open to these, but. .it is very improbable
that there will be any effort upon the
part of those who arc out to regain their
positions.

Forty-Nine Bodies Recovered From
Cars of Electric Train Wh ich
Plunged From Drawbridge Into

Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 29. The to
tal number of dead in the appalling
wreck of Sunday afternoon, when an
electric train, loaded With passengers
plunged into the waterway separating
this city from the mainland, is now
placed at fifty-three. Of these, forty
nine bodies have been identilied, two
bodies remain unclaimed in the tempo
rary mortuary, and two people are
known to have been . drowned, but their
bodies have not yet been recovered.
A special car containing the bodies of
the Philadelphia victims left tonight
for that city.
The day has been one of unceasing ac
tivity, of gruesome scenes and pathetic
incidents.
Wrecking crews with derricks suc
ceeded in bringing one of the two sub
merged cars to the surface and divers
working in relays brought up bodies
until their task was completed and they
reported that no more dead remained
cither inside the second car or any
where in the vicinity. Interest now cen
ters in the work of the coroner's jury,
which today made a careful inspection
of the scene Of the wreck, and the draw

Coroner's Jury at Scene.
The jury assembled at 1 o'clock and
proceeded to the scene of the tragedy.
At the bridge they Were joined by ilayor
Stoy and W. V Atterbury, general
manager of the rennsylvania railroad.
After tho forward car of the two sub
merged coaches had been hoisted to the
surface and the divers, who had been at
work on the wreckage all day long, had
made a final examination of the second
car without finding any more bodies, Mr.
Atterbury, who witi several of his as
sistants had been on the scene since
Sunday night, expressed his belief that
.Uietotal .number of dead would not ex
ceed fifty-three.
"There is a bare possibility that one

REMARKS AROUSE INTEREST
Berlin, Oct. 20. The text of the
speech delivered Saturday by Professor
Burgess, dean of Columbia. University,
the first .incumbent of the Theodore
Roosevelt professorship of American
history and instruction at the Univer
sity of Berlin, has been 'printed by the
University press. There was some cu
riosity to see precisely .what Professor
Burgess said regarding the Monroe doc
trine being out of date; upon the obso
leteness of the high protective tarilf,
nnd on the United Slates interests be
ing promoted by the extensive Orman
emigration to South America.
As the address was made in the pres
ence of the ehiperor and fretptent refer
ences were made in it to President
Roosevelt, the impression appears to
have been made that the president de
sired to send a messase to d'ermany on
I those subjects. Of the protective tarili
land Monroe doctrine he enid:
I '-Our politician -do. .not appear to have
j the least notion that both of these doc-
t riiies are almost obsolete and that the
reconstruct ion of European states ami
i their const itution ami the acceptance by
Ithe United States itself of its position
as n world power have made .them both
nenrlv senseless."
Professor Burgess added: "The best
interests of the United States and the
! world would be advanced by a strong
'Teutonic tide of emigration to Soutn
j America, by which thcsettlement of that
I gigantic part of the continent by meo
capable of cultivating it would be sc

On returning from the drawbridge,
Mr. Atterbury discussed the accident
freely, but when asked to give his His
tory as to tho cause of it he replied that
lit still is a mystery to him.
' "I still believe," he declared that there
was nothing wrong with the rails ol
' the bridge. . T am inclined to think that
' the cause, will be,-ascertained wheu the

I Mr. Atterbury himself showed the

TO EKTHU IASTIC AUDIENCE
Republican Nominee for Senator Dis
cusses Issues of Campaign in a Most
Interesting Manner Committee From
Carpenters Present
In spite "of the fact that the meeting
had not been well advertised, a good
si.ed audience greeted C. P. Frazier, can
didate for senator, at the county court
house last night. The occasion was a
meeting, of the Republican candidates
for the purpose', of discussing campaign
issues, and although Mr. Frazier was
not aware t hat he was expected to make
a speech, his address was a good one.
Mr. Frazicr's opening remarks were
devoted to the Republican presidents
from'.: -Abraham Lincoln to Theodore
Roosevefe, and he paid beautiful tributes
to Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley.
On referring to the race between him
self and J. A. Holt, Mr. Frazier stated
that nothing would have given him inor
pleasure than a meeting with Mr. Holt
in joint discussion. He was, very com
plimentary to his opponent, and said
that the only objection he has to Mr.
Holt is that he is a Democrat. He ac
counts for Mr. Holt's being on the
wrong side by saying that the Demo
crats held aim there by promising to
elect him senator, with better things to
follow. Mr. Frazier said that an arti
cle written by Mr. Holt a year or so
ago in which he stated that "lie had
realized that there could never be such
a thing as a national Democratic party."
was - .sufficient evidence that he would
have left the Democratic party but for
the promise the party has made him.
