Anxiety For Expedition New Allay-

Husband, Saying, “1 Will Hear From
Him In November.”
NEW YORK. Nov. 8—The United
States mow holds the record of “far
thest north’ 57 degrees © minutes,
In arctic exploration up to this date.
This feat was accomplished by Com-
mander Relert E Peary of the Unit
ed States navy.
The Intrepid explorer failed to reach
the nerth pole, as he bad confidently
hoped to do with his specially con-
structed vessel, the Roosevelt, but he
peaetrited nearer to the pele than the
Duke of the Abruzzi's expedition,
which had held the arctic record, 56
degrees 34 minutes. What Commander
Feary did and his experiences during
the past year in the frezen north are
rather briefly but certainly vividly
summarized ln a telegraphic communt-
cation received from him last night by
Herbert LI. Bridgeman, secretary of
the Peary Arctic club. This communi
cation froma Hopedale, Labrador, via
Twillingate, Newfoundland, follows:
“The Roosevelt wintered north coast

dition.”
After furnishing the contents of Com-
mander Poary's message Mr. Bridge-
man said that the receipt of any news
from the explorer now was quite a sur-
prise to him because be had supposed
it had become too late in the season
fer Commander Peary to send news of
bis venture. Mr. Bridgeman added
that the message spoke for itself and
that since he did not know more of
the results of Commander Peary's ef-
fort to reach the pole than the public
did he could hardly comment upon the
dispatch.
There was little doubt, however, he
sald, that Commander Peary was com-
Ing home. This seems to be borne out
by the routing of the dispatch. Hope
dale, or Heffenthal, is a Moravian mis-
slon station on the east coast of Lal
rador. Twillingate 1s a port on the
east coast of Newfoundland. Mr.
Bridgeman sald the message was prob-
ably malled by Commander Peary
from Hopedale to the most accessible
eable point.
Peary planned to have lis headquar-
ters 350 miles north of Cape Sabine.
From that point he proposed to make
his actual journey to the pole, a dis
tance of 000 miles, across a desert of
fce and snow. This final dash he ex-
pected fo make in a mouth or six
weeks from the time he left headquar-
ters,

from him in November.

TRADE CONDITIONS.
R. G. Dun & Co's Weakly Business
2 Repert.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3—R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
Colder weather bas removed one of
the drawbacks to seasonable distribu-
tion of merchandise, but there is still
much complaint of traffic conditions
Congestion on the rallways was Io-
creased by the destruction of vessels
during the recent gulf storm, and a
much heavier tonnage of freight is de-
layed than usual, although there is al
ways a car famine at this season. Re-
tail trade shows {mprovement ln near-
ly all sections, and mercantile collec
tions are more prompt.
Returns from the iron and steel (n-
dustry could not easily be brighter, and
footwear factories have abundant or
ders on hand. After several weeks of
pressure to place coutracts for cotton
goods there is an natural season of
quiet, but the mills Lave secured sufl-
client busipess to assure maby months
of active machinery. Eastern wool
sales bave attained record proportions,
but the late fall has delayed the de
mand for woolens.
Rallway earnings in October were
8.3 per cent larger than a year ago, and
foreign commerce at this port alone for
the last week showed a gain of $2538.

Root and Croker—Broekiym As-
sembly Objects to HRoose-
velt’s Dictation.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3 In the political
situation In this state fresh Interest
wns aroused by the publication of a
letter from William J. Bryan to Bird
8. Coler, borough president of Brook.
Iyn, in which the writer expressed the
hope that all Democrats would support
William R. Hearst for governor
This thing and the further fact that
both Charles E. Hughes and William
R. Hearst, the candidates for governor
on the Republicsn and Democratic
Independence league tickets respective
ly, were once wore on the stubbornly
contested ground of the city of Greater
New York has brought the political In-
terest to a fever pitch.
Mr. Hughes and Mr, Hearst are giv-
ing their attention to the vofers of
Kings and Queens counties, both mask-
ing whirlwind dashes from place to
place in order to carry out the detalls
of the long programmes mapped out
for them by their respective campaign
managers. Mr. Hearst was slated to
speak at thirteen different meetings In
Brooklyn, Long Island City and Queens
county, while Mr. Hughes’ night cam-
paign called for equally as strenuous
work.
Mr. Hughes arrived from Utica early,
but en route he made a stop at Catskill.
At Utica he made threa speeches, one
in a ball and one each at the works of
the two large Industrial concerns,
where ha spoke directly to many thou
sands of workingmen, appealing to
them to support his party in the com-
ing elections,
His last speech outside the city of
Greater New York was made at Cats-
kill, where Le addressed an enthusi-
astic meeting at the town theater.
Reaching this city, he took but a brief
rest before entering upon the long lists
of meetings scheduled for Brooklyn and
Long Island. Reviewing his up state
campaign, Mr. Hughes expressed satis
faction at the prospects of Republican
success and declared he was gratified
“with the hearty support of the Re
publican organization throughout the
state.”
Mr. Hearst was forced to rest during
the day because of the serious cond!
tion of his throat after long speech.
making. Hé has resumed his labors,
however, and was whirled about
Brooklyn and Long Island in an auto
mobile for speeches at many places
His first appearance was at Watson's
theater, Brooklyn, where au enthusl.

volce showed the effects of his vigor
ous campaigu up state, and when he
commenced Lis first address Le found
difficulty in making himself heard
Mr. Hearst found volce enough to
pay his respecis to Richard Croker,
whose recent cablegram to Senator P.
H. McCarren was construed as a con-
demuation of Tammany Hall's indorse
ment of Mr. Hearst's candidacy
Secretary Elihu Root, who attacked
Mr. Hearst at Utica, also came in for a
severe arralgument. Mr. Croker and
Secretary Root, the speaker declared,
bad furnished the most couvincing ev!
dence LY their recent expressions that
the “corporation” elements of the
Democratic and Republican parties
were united in thelr opposition to him
because of his onslaught upon illegal
business combinations
At Visitation hall, In Brooklyn, be
fore Mr. Hearst arrived the audience
unanimously adopted resolutions dls:
approving of the action of President
Roosevelt In permitting his views ou
New York state politics to be made
public by Secretary Root.
The resolutions were Introduced by
Alfred J. Boulton, register of Kings
county, and after quoting from the
secretary's speech at Utica conclude:
“We deem It due to the diguity of
Awerican citizenship that we should
resent this flagrant attempt at federal
dictation to the electorate of this state
and that we should make known to our
servant in Washington our view of his
Interference.”
One of the speakers at the principal
Hughes meeting In Brooklyn was Ox
car 8. Straus, who, it 1s expected, will
soon become a member of President
Roosevelt's cabinet
Leaders of both parties renewed thelr
professions of absolute confidence in
the outcome of Tuesday's balloting
Timothy Woodruff, chairman of the
Republican state committee, declared
he was perfectly satisfied with the pros.
pects and predicted for Mr. Hughes a
sweeping victory. On the other hand,
Charles ¥. Murphy, leader of Tam-
many, reiterated his assurance (hat
Tammany would poll its full vote for
Mr. Hearst and that he was confident
the Democratic candidate would be
elected by na large wajority.

in unmeasured terms, declaring at the

“THE LABOR WORLD”
DISOWNS LLY
Says That It Is Not in Any Way
Responsible for the Articles It
Contains in Support of the
Boss
The publishers of “The Labor
World” which has been circulated
freely in Sayre, and which contains
laudatory articles of Boss Liley
and other gang candidates, fl, the
following aanouacem-nt at the
head of the editorial page:
“The Labor World gives notice that
iisin no sense responsible for any
article which appears in its columns,
except unsigned articles on page §.
All other pages are devoted to news
and contributions, and may often de
scribe and advocate matters utterly
opposed to The Labor World and its
policy The publication of a signed
or news article must not be construed
wn any sense an endorsement of it,”
The editorial matter concerning
Boss Lilley appears on page 6,
while the article which tells of his
undying friendship for labor, and
which refers to the papers support
ing Mr. Kipp as “scabs” is pub
lished on page 1, or the title page
Now, what do you think of that ?
Lilley and his henchmen are tell.
ing the Sayre workingmen that
“The Labor World" is supporting
Lilley and that his record on the
labor question is all right. But
when you read the publishers’ nos
tice, they disclaim being respons:-
ble for or endorsing the Lilley
articles, It would thus appear that
Lilley is paying space rates, whats
‘ver they may be, for the “support”
f this ‘Labor World" This is
the method that the Boss has taken
to tell the workingmen of this sec-
tion that Samuel Gompers is a liar.
He has been successful in finding »
oaper that will print his screed for
hire, but the paper will not father
it. This is entirely in keeping with
the methods of Boss Lilley; the
same methods that he has practiced
[ever since he appointed himself a
dictator of the party.
In the same issue is printed the
picture cf Elias Deemer, a faithful
follower of the late M. S. Quay,
ind one of the gang's candidates
for congress. There is also an ar
ticle supporting Mr. Deemer’s can-
didacy. Yet Mr, Deemer is being
opposed for congress by a well
known laboring man, a trade un
ionist. What manner of paper is
The Labor World anyway ?
In another issue of the paper,
Mr Gompers is said to be all right
on the political situation, and that
anything that comes from that gen-
tleman may be regarded as authen
tic. “The Labor World" is cer-
tainly performing a wonderful acros
batic feat. It is riding two horses
and cannot conceal it. This is the
paper that is telling the laboring
men of Sayre that Mial Lilley is
their friend.
