There appears to be a iiu-n ui anility to reach prompt decisions In the ab Krnce of Governor Cox About Repub lican headquarters here the criticism it heard that both in New York nnd In ChicaKo there is n Mrt of paralysis in the Democratic organization. Organization Two Months IJeliind This criticlum of the IJepubllcans is probRbly exaggerated. As already pointed out in this correspondence, the Democratic nationnl oigauization Is at i least two months behind the Republi cs! organization, nnd in some respects Wore thnn two months behind it in get ting under way. The Democratic na tional organization is not yet func tioning. And the peculiar relation of Governor Cox to it makes it difficult for it to function. Governor Uox is Virtually the head of whatever national organization there is. Chairman White being merely the governor's man. And Governor Cox is nwuy on a long trip, hard to reach and hard to keep fully Informed. ,The example of the Republicans this jear iu having an organization fully prepared and ready to act when the nomination wim made will be likely to be followed by other parties in the fu ture. The Democratic party was handi capped by not having funds to begin with when the convention was held and by not having any organization alreadv qtive in the field. The change in the chairmanship s,o late in tho day as the change from Mr. Cummings to Mr. White was a mistake from the point of. view of effective organizition An (fcctraordlnary political organizer might Have taken hold when Mr. White did nnd improvised an effectual mndiiue in time for the active campaign, but Mr. pmio ih not proving a genius at or Ionization m Tn Ohio, trtiem finromnr (' i ...-11 ' known, his friends describe him as "a i lal street cleaning as a superior method Mrd man to organize." This do,-s not i t0 contract performance. The mcru rhenn that he is nt all 1 k Piesident act tnat municipal work is recom WJlson fn li i relation to his men.

He listers tjnjpverybody readily, takes all kinds of n,dWce thnt is offered, but ho actually sends for and consults with few men. Cov PUys Lone Hand ' He plays n lather lone band politi cally so thnt his representatives on tho national committee are often at a loss to know what he intends to do or what his judgment will be on ceitain policies. Mr, White has mado the mistake of disagreeing with his chief on oue or two occasions, especiallj when lie made the announcement fioin Washington regard ing the relative unimportuuce of the .League oi .Nations issue, and on the campaign fund charges. Chairman White, Judge Moore and the governor's i other nntural advisors were uninformed wnen tlie nttMiurgn speech was de livered. Their position is difficult, with qn organization only just starting in. nnd a candidate who goes his own way nnd who is hard to reach. The Maine election, coming jui-t ns did, with thf organization onb starting in, and suggesting the posibiht of great strength for tho Ilepubluau can didate thro ighout the eouutn , has hud nv'.eprcij'sins effect upon the Dcmncratic leaders.

Four workmen appeared at the municipal building to day and declared they had spoken with the driver of the death wagon that fig ured In the Wall street explosion last Thursday. Particular Interest wns taken In their story, for investigators vainly had sought to establish the Identity of the driver among the dead or the living. The workmen said that five or ten minutes after the explosion of a bomb, believed to have been placed in the wagon, a man npproached them when they were standing in front of n build ing being razed in the Wall street dis trict. According to their story, the stranger said bis horse and wagon had been blown up after he had left the vehicle to telephone to his employer. "lie said he had been ordered to tnke building materials to Wall nnd Broad streets, hut he had been unable to find the indefinite address given him. After tnlktng to the workmen, he disappeared, they said. The workmen, employed by n house wrecking concern, described, the stranger as either a Slav or a German, about five feet seven inches, nnd weigh ing 100 to 170 pounds. He wore a dark blue serge suit, they said. Miss Rebecca Epstein, a twenty-year-old stenographer, who claims to have seen the driver of the death wngon before the explosion, previously had told the district attorney that he wore brown overalls. The workmen's story served to re vive un early theory that the explosion mny not have been due to n bomb plot, but to a collision between an automobile and n wngon filled with explosives. While waiting to be quizzed by of ficials of the fire department, nt whose office they nppeared, the workmen told reporters that manv contractors working in tho financial district, when in need of explosives, frequently sent any kind of wagon for them, without going to the trouble of obtaining a permit for their transfer. Wnrning that the Brooklyn postoffice should be "cleared at 12:15 a. m. Sat urday" was received there today on a postcard. It was characterized ns n Joko by B. M.

The recommendation wns mnde in the finnl report of n committee named to Inspect nnd report on the condltiou of the city's fire equipment. The committee urged thnt the speed of fire apparatus should be no greater than the maximum allowed other motor-driven vehicles, which is fifteen miles an hour. Fire Chief Murphy said that the fiftecn-mllc limit could be stretched to eighteen or twenty miles, if necessary. The committee also recommended the complete elimination of horse-drawn apparatus, except nozzle nhd chemicnl wagons: an appropriation of $5,"0.000 for new motor apparatus; a monthly insection of nil fire apparatus, with a report as to reairs needed and n school nf instruction in motors nnd motor operation. The icport recommended the discon tinuance of detailing officers and men of the Bureau of Fire to other bureaus nnd departments, nnd the organization of n lire prevention squad as u separate unit under the control of the fire mar shal to be composed of men separntelv appointed nnd not detailed to the squad from the firo or other bureaus. Tho report of the committee showed thnt the present equipment of the Bureau of Fire consists of 127 pieces of horse-drawn nnd 114 pieces of motor driven apparatus. The committee estimated thnt com pletely to motorize tho fire department forty-threo udditlonul pieces of ap paratus will bo required. The motor apparatus necessury will include nine teen gasoline pumping engines, nine teen chemical und hose wugons, thiee aerial trucks, one tank wugon nnd one wrecking wngon.
