ROOSEVELT PLEA « 1S OF NO AVAL New York Legislature Kills Direct Primary Law. ORGANIZATION WINS oU1 For First Time in a Number of Years the Ex-President’s Influence Counts for Nought With New York Repub lican Leaders and His Recommenda tion Is Turned Down by Decisive Vote. Albany, N. Y., July 2—Swiftly and emphatically the senate fell in line with the assembly and sent the Cobb direct nominations bill down to defeat ‘I'he final vote was 26 ayes to 19 noes, seven Republicans combining with the Democrats against the bill. Twenty- six votes were necessary to pass the bill. The measure was killed after the amendments proposed by Lloyd C Griscom, chairman of the New York county Republican committee, and en dorsed by Theodore Roosevelt had been incorporated in the measure by a vote of 24 to 21. An emergency mes sage from the governor made it possi ble for the senate to vote on the amended measure at once. The result of the fight in the senate ‘was even a more positive refusal to ac cept Theodore Roosevelt's leadershiy in the matter than that of the as sembly. The bill was killed in the assembly after a long, hard fight. The final count stood 80 to 63 in favor of ac. cepting the adverse report of the Jjudiciary committee, which had the bill in charge.

The supreme question was whether he would be able again to compel the' Republican organization to follow his bidding. 1t was a clear cut issue between the former president and the “organiza- tion™ leaders, and the leaders won. From the moment that Colonel Roosevelt sent his telegram to Mr. Griscom, urging the passage of the bill, things hummed. The situation suddeniy became one which was re- garded as of national significance. The question was whether Roosevelt of Sagamore Hill was as mighty as Roosevelt of Washington. Those who had previously supported the Cobb measure, including even Governor Hughes, slipped into the background. In front of them all was the command- ing figure of Theodore l.cosevelt, FACES LONG PRISON TERM Michigan Bank Cashier Guilty of Mak- ing False Entries. Marquette, Mich., July 2.—George H.

Hammondsport, N.-Y., July 2.—That the aeroplane in its present state of development is {ar from being a satis- factory engine of war is the conclu- slon of Glenn H. Curtiss as a result of the experiments in mimic bomb throwing which he has been conduct- ing over Lake Keuka. The tests thus far, he says, have demonstrated two important points: First—That no aeroplane can be made into an eflicient war machine un- less it is fitted for carrying two per- sons—one to act as pilot and attend to the motor, the other to act as gun- ner. Second—That the dropping of pro- Jjectiles is a waste of ammunition with- out a gun which can be aimed right from overhead and can carry Its mis- sile to the target, Rear Admiral Kimball’'s comment on the tests is as follows: “These are the zeroplane’s present defects for war purposes: “Lack of ability to operate in aver- age weather at sea; signalling ap- proach by noise made by motor and propeller; impossibility of controlling heights and speed so as to predict ap- proximate range; difficulty of hitting when working at a height great enough to give the aeroplane a fight- Ing chance of reaching effective range.” LOSES WEALTH AND TITLE Princess Rospigliosi’s Marriage Held to Be Void. Rome, July 2.—The ecclesiastical court of Rota has handed down a de- eision refusing to recognize the mar- riage of the Princess Rospigliosi, the divorced wite of Colonel krederick H.

The case was tried by the entire Rota, consisting of ten judges, and can never be reopened unless entirely new evidence is discovered. There are pending numerous similar cases involving Americans. The Rospigliosi case involves a for- tune of $8,000,000, the ownership of several landed estates and one of the most ancient titles in Rome. The prince and princess were mar- ried in Rome Aug. 26, 1901. The cere- mony was a civil one and the church refuses to sanction it. Minnesotan Killed in Idaho.
