Fox, of Burlington, N, J., wants to brlnpr his "silent rlflo" nint belt of "adamantine cattrldgos" over to Philadelphia and open sanguinary war fare on tho pigeons that flutter about City Hall, He has written tilrcclor Porter placlnc his skill as a rllleman at the disposal of tho city. Fox stands ready to "sin up" with Director Porter In a contnu t to shoot every last pigeon that ever dropped a feather lit City Hall court" yard, This Is what Vox told the director In tho letter: "A short time ago t read an account of s. suggestion to get rid erf the pigeons around the Public Buildings. While It la no small matter to get rid of them, I would llko to offer my services along thts line, and If It meets with your appioval plcaso let me hoar from you. "When I was n boy of 10 years I wa3 engaged to rid the cathedral nt isth and Race streets of this same nuisance, which cost hundreds of dollnrs rvrv spring. Thomas Burns, the Janitor at that time, secured me for this service. My grand father, who was supervisor of tho Water Department of the Otl District, tinder Frederick Graff, and who was a un known citizen of the 10th Ward, lived on the northwest corner of SOth and Sum mer streets: his namo was Simiicl M. Fox. He secured for mo the privilege of using my silent rllle on the street about the church from the lieutenant of police at 13th and Filbert streets, "My agreement with them was that they furnish the ammunition, glvo ma free access to their building, pay mo $1 for each pigeon killed, but t had to get tho last pigeon, which I did. I killed 01 birds In three weeks ar.d received $31. "The ball I uso Is an adamantine cart ridge, and will not destroy the stone on the buildings, and t will be responsible for any loss or accidents that may occur. "If you are considering onterlnc Into any agreement, I would bo glad to sign up with you." THE OFFICIALS ACT. After reading the letter. Director Porter recalled what the Society for tho Pro tection of Cruelty to Animals and a few thousand citizens said when tho sug gestion to exterminate tho pigeons was made n few weeks ago. Then ho hustled over to Director Cooke's ofllce and the two cabinet members read in unison Kox's description of his prowess with tho rifle. "Some shooter." said Director Cooke. "I think tho pigeons come under the head of City Property," said Director Porter to Director Cooke, "and. In that case It's up to you to answer this Iettor." Director Cooke buing unable to classify tho pigeons satisfactorily In the Public Safety Department accepted the commis sion and today wrote the following1 letter to Mr. Fox, of Burlington: "It Is very good of you to write as you do under date of October M, offering your assistance In the matter of exterminating the pigeons at tho Citv Hull. Your past record In pigeon shooting, as stated In your letter, shows you to be some shooter. "I have no thought, however, to do away with the pigeons On the contrarv, wo are very glad to havo them with us. They afford a good deal of amusement and pleasure to people who frequent tho neighborhood of tho City Hall. I am quite sure that any move to harass them would bo resented. In order to make these birds more comfortable In their occupancy of tho City Hall, and to make It unnecessary for them to nest In the scales of Justice nnd other sculptured decorations of the building, we have recently placed some comfortable cotes on the roof. "If your silent rifle shooting adaman tine cartridges could bo used on certain real nuisances which wo have In Phila delphia, with as much success as It has evidently been used on pigeons, I would predict a big uso for it."

J. DENNY O'NEIL COMES OUT AGAINST PENROSE CANDIDACY Pittsburgh County Commissioner Says Rum Will Not Rule State. PITTSBURGH, Oct. 23. .1. Donny O'Xell, County Commissioner of Alle gheny County, elected on the Republican ticket, has corns out against Senator Penrose, declaring his belief that tho t-enatrr cannot carry moro than threo counties west of tho Schuylkill River. A statement given to the Kveni.vo Lcnonn today follows: "The sentiment against Penrose In tho western part of the State Is growing; by election day It will havo assumed tho proportions of a tidal wave. I do not bellevo that he will carry more than thrco counties west of the Susquehanna Itlvcr. "In the western part of tho Stato Ten rose Is not a political Issue, but rather a moral Issue. Many Organization Re publicans will not support him since they havo come to understand that his Per sonal Liberty ticket was placed In tho Held for tho purposo of defeating all dry candidates upon tho Republican ticket. I have been Informed that the Personal Liberty ticket was placed In the field to secure tho votes of the liquor dealers for Tenrose, as the liquor dealers de clared that if they could not have any local wet candidates to vote for they would not voto at all. "The attempt on the part of a few corporations to force their employes to voto for Penrose his reacted nnd will have tho opposite effect. It Is an Insult tn the intelligence of the voters to say that the future prosperity of this great State can be Influenced by any single in dividual and the voters all know that Penrose's cry of soup houses and panic is raised to intimidate the voters. "Senator Penrose has done moro to ward making Pennsylvania dry than al ether causes combined. In order to further his Interests he has Induced the saloons and brewers to organize and so into politics as a body. By doing so he has made the saloons a State Issue and the people of this State will not stand for ram rule. "J. DENNV O'NEIL, "Counts" Commissioner." Mr. O'Neil has always been a stanch Republican and the greatest vote-setter that Senator Oliver ever bad. He carried Allegheny County for County C'nmmlMloner bv the blgsest plu rality a Republican candidate ever re ceived here.

New York will bo mado tho money market for South America. American bills will be paid in dollars In Now York Instead of In pounds stcillng on London. "London has been the money market of the world for ages, and business Irt U rests of tho country must help In this movement. New York cannot become n financial city of world importance until tho dollar becomes known In all tho markets of tho world. The building up of a discount market will help to solve tho problem of long ci edits. The work wo have undertaken will of necessity do volop slowly. Tho bank Is doing pioneer work. American manufacturers seeking to enter tho South American field must upproacli it In tho tamo coniei vatlve manner. Prollts must not be expected the llrst year. "To develop successfully this new market will requite a degree of co-opera-tlon nnd co-ordination heretofore un known," Mr. Klcs continued, deploring the refusal of Americans In Buenos Aires to organlzo a board of trade for fear It might help competition. "If trade opportunities nro developed persistently and diplomatically," ho said, "this eur, marked In history by the greatest tragedy of civilisation, will be ti'cd In our own history ns tha year In which tho foundations for the future commercial supicmney of tho United States worn firmly laid." "In tho future the major pait of the money for tho development of Iitln America must como from tho United States," said John Barrett, director gen eral of tho Pan-American Union.

"It Is cltar," he said, "that tho Trade Commission will furnish a prompt and rcudily accessible method for, nbtertaln ing whether or not particular acts are luvvful or unlawful. The dual result of the Clayton unti-trust act Is clearly to dis tinguish the general business community from trusts."

That tho Indorsement of McCormlck was a surprise to mo sthat tho last tlmo I had seen Lowls and Van Vnlkehburg they told mo they did not bcllovo tho action would be tnken, nnd that Plnchot, ) know, had been against tho action being taken "I state, however, that In all theso lo cal matters I stood by tho decision of the Progressive leaders who wcro re sponsible In tho State, nnd that I should support tho action that had been taken In Pennsylvania. "I think but I am not certain, that I also said, either In this letter or In some other letter, that I would personally pre fer to seo Lowls continue, but that I did not know enough ot tho Btibject to express any final Judgment and had en tire confidence In the wisdom of what ever action the Pennsylvania Progres sives would finally toko and should sup port It. "As soon ns wc get to Now Y'ork tho letter will bo given out for publication. The lottor Is not of tho slightest conso tiucnco: It wns a prlvnto letter to Mr, Quay, I cannot Imagine why hu should have talked It over with .Mr. Penrose, but fdnco he has done so I am delighted to have It published." VOTERS REALIZE ISSUES "It has beon a great trip," said tho Colonel In discussing his four days of whirlwind campaigning In Pennsylvania. "I am moro pleased than I can say with tho tour," ho continued. "And It Is hot only with the enthusiasm and size of the nudlenccs; It Is the clearness with which tho Issues aro understood. "Tako the worklngmon, tho farmers and tho business men In tho towns, big and little. They understand clearly that this Is a great light for decency nnd clean government, ngalnst tho forces of mlsrulo and corruption, corruption. "They understand that tho kind of prosperity which Pcnroso promises them Is tho prosperity that comes to a wide open city with a red-light Mayor, and they aro against that kind of prosperity becauso In tho first place it Is vicious, and In tho next plnco It Is not real pros perity at nil. They know that Gilford Plnchot stands for tho squaro deal nnd for the honest prosperity nnd that through It wlso and honest government will bo permanently secured to all honest men." Tho Colonel got out of bed to speak for a mlnuto to 500 persons waiting for him at Tyrone, whero today's trip started. When ho was told the crowd was calling for him, Roosevelt thicw an overcoat over his shoulders, and did not oven stop to comb his hair before resuming his denunciations of I'cnrose. "Good morning," ho said to tho crowd, as ho waved his hand to them. Then ho urged them, ns ho has t urged ncaily 100,000 other people who havo heard him since ho Invaded Pennsylvania, to "smash Penrose." At Mt. Union 500 greeted him. nnd ho talked for a few minutes to tho sumo number nt Lowlstown Junction. Largo crowds turned out at Mlflllti, Newport and Duncannon. At Mt. Union a large banner was displayed, which read, "Col onel Roosevelt, Mt. Union Likes You." Fully 12,000 persons managed to crowd Into the 13th Regiment Armory In Scrnnton Inst night, nnd thero was enoutth enthusiasm at first to satisfy even hard-fighting Teddy. Mrs. Maxwell Chapman, n woman suf frago speaker, forced Roosevelt to launch Into a discussion of partnership between men nnd women by bluntly demanding of tho Colonel, who followed her on thu platform, that ho plead tho cause of woman suffrage. Tho Colonel did so. The Lnckawanna County Washington party organization sold many of the scnts In tho Armory for tho meeting und staged a program which Included tho singing of tempcrnnco songs, preceding Roobovelt'a address. The Colonel Joined In the chor uses with the audience. Mr. Roosevelt announced nt the Scran ton meeting that before November 3 ho would send a message owr his own sig nature to every voter In Pennsylvania. Ho branded Penroso ns being as much of an International figure as Tammany. "Tho gunmen ot tho underworld nnd tho gunmen of high flnnnco have como together In support of him," said tho ex I'resldeut. "You seo the distillery nnd the Fnlqon, that Is Its agent. Joining with Individuals who claim eminent re spectability and who represent the special Interests In tho support of Penrose."

Quay today made It plain that Colonel Roosevelt in any lotter ha has written to Quay has not even remotely Indicated a wish to rid the Progressive movement In Pennsylvania of William Plliin. Beyond a definite statement to this ef fect Mr. Quny declined to (Uncus the matter, pending Colonel Roosevelt's au thorization to do so. Quay's comment on Fllnn was prompt ed by a statement Penroso Is ci edited to have made In HarrUburg last night, that Quay had told him Roosevelt's let ter expressed a wish to rid the party of Fllnn. Quay and Fllnn are now political ene mies, and Quay said he gave tho assur ance, not for Fllnu'a sake, but in Jubtico to Colonel Roosevelt. Roosevelt has refused Quay's permis sion to publish the letter, which Is In reply to one Quay sent Itocwevelt, pro tecting against FUnn's bundling of the Progressive movement In Pennsylvania. "There Is nothing In tho letter," said Quay today, "which I think Colonel Uoosevelt would mind having published, but thai is for him to say." Incidentally It developed that Penrose, when he mentioned the letter at all, broke fulth with Quay, huln given liU word that he would not make any public use whatever of what had been a private conversation between the two when Pen rose was In Pittsburgh.
