ROCHE8TER. N. Y.. Sept. 17.—Only
politicians, contractors and others
whose business It Is to kesp tab on auch
matters can thoroughly appreciate the
Importance of the nomination of Philip
B. Farley, of Brooklyn, for otate engi
neer and surveyor by the Democratic
state convention yesterday.
Farley Is an antl-MeCarrenlte. James
Plnnot, who placed him In nomination.
Is perhaps the real leader of the antl-
MrCarrenltes. The election of Mr. Far
ley would mean the utter annihilation
or McCarren and all of McCarren’s fol
lowers In Kings county.
Mr. Farley as state engineer would
have practically absolute control of all
contracts under the 1101,000,000 canal
Improvement act. and In addition, he
would be the all-powerful state officer
In handing out the good roads contracts
under the 150.000,000 appropriation.
Farley would havo millions upon mil
lions to hand out to contractors and
their political friends.

GENERAL WRIGHT
DEFENDS TAFT
Answers Bryan’s Charge of
Perpetual Franchise
For Railroad.
WASHINGTON, 8ept. 17.—Brynn'i
criticism of Judge Taft for granting to
Speyer A Co., of New York, a perpetual
franchise for the Henguet railroad In
the Philippines Is answered' by Gen
eral Luke K. Wright, secretary of war.
Secretary Wright was governor of
the Philippines when the contract was
made with Speyer & Co.
"In the first plnce,” save General
Wright. "Mr. Taft can not he held re-
spcntlble for the ileal with Speyer. As
secretary of war he aproved the rec
ommendation made to him by the
Philippine commission. Tho commis
sion acted after It had obtained tin
best expert advice at Its command. The
so-called perpetual franchise Is noth
ing more than Is possessed by all rail
roads In this country In their charters.
Without a perpetual charter It would
have been Impossible for tho govern
ment to have made any terms concern
ing the road.
'1 am and I always have been as
sured of the wisdom of the deal made
with Speyer A Co."
NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—''Bully.''—
President Roosevelt.
“Good! I'm very glad."—Mr. Taft.
"I am deeply sensible of the honor
conferred upon me.’’—Governor Hughes.
"It was a great victory for tha pres
ident.”—Secretary Loeb.
These varying expressions of Joy are
over tho signal overthrow of tha op-
pnsltlo and tlm renomlnatlon of Gov
ernor Charles K. Hughes by the Re-
g ubllcan state convention at Saratoga.
nme of the delegatea who returned
today were not an exuberant. Like the
now famous little boy the calf ran
over, they haven't a word to any.
The facility and celerity of the "big
stick's" execution was something on
which the hostile hosts had not calcu
lated. H smashed their plana so ef
fectually they were almost too para
lyzed In their defeat to make good Ip
the scramble for the band-wagon which
filled rapidly. A few managed to pick
plums In the shape of minor ofllcea on
the way.
Secretary Loeb said today:
"It tvas a great victory for tits presi
dent. In my opinion. Mr. Hughes
would never been nominated If the
R resident had not jumped In and taken
old of things. Late Monday night
eome of the opposition leaders called
me up on the 'phone and asked me who
the president wanted for second place
on the ticket. 1 fold hint the president
wae not Interested In .whom was to be
lieutenant governor; that could be set
tled among themselves. All the presi
dent wanted was to see Mr. Hughes
nominated."
TRAIN DISPATCHER DOOMED
BY A NEW SIGNAL DEVICE
NOW INSTALLED ON SANTA FE
WASHINGTON, 8ept. 17.—A traln-
elopplng device which It le claimed
will practically eliminate the telegraph
operator as a factor in the movement
of trains Is now under Investigation by
the block system and train control
board of the Interstate commerce com
mission.
The system Is an Invention of P. J.
Bitumen, of Los Angeles. Cal. It has
been Installed on eighteen niltes of the
Hants Fe railway In Southern Cali
fornio and said to be in successful
operation.
By the working of the system each
train records on a sheet In the train
dispatcher's office the exact time It
enters and the time U leaves o block.
The train dispatcher can signal direct
to any engineer on hie division either to
atop or to proceed. Intelligible com
munication Is maintained by the dis
patcher ami engineers In their cabs.
The dispatcher Is protected against
human error by the automatic Inter
locking of the switches by which ha
signals tu the train.
He ran atop any or all trains on hla
division, but ha can not give a signal to
proceed unless the block Is clear. The
engineer aloo.ts protected against error
automatic stop. He la
bv the use of an
given a danger signal either'by the
train dispatcher or by the presence of p
train, open switch or a broken rail In a
block ahead.
This danger signal Is given the enxt-
neers about a half mile before he en
ter* the block. If on receiving the sig
nal he should fall to rtduce hla speed to
le*» than five miles an hour or any pre
determined safe rota of*speed In the
next 100 feet traveled hla train Is auto
matically stopped. The engineer can
f irevent the automatic atop from work-
ng only by reducing hie speed to the
predetermined safe rate. A recording
devlee on a locomotive makes a record
ot tho time and place where a danger
signal Is given; of the .time the signal
clears; of how quickly tha engineer re-
•pends to the danger signal; of the rate
the train la running at any time; of the
time and place the engineer permits the
automatic atop to operate.
