S T LABOR DEMAND DECREASES WATSON DENIES MULHALL STORY Never Friend of Manufac- turers, He Declares. | WORKED FOR TARIFF BOARD, Was Not a Member of Congress at the Time and Asserts There Was Noth- Ing Secret or Insidious in Regard to His Employment, Washington, Sept. 13.—Former Rep- resentative James E. Watson of In- diana, before the house lobby com- mittee, made a general denmial of Martin M. Mulhall’s general charge that he was occ of the active friends | of the National Association of Man-| ufacturers in congress during many years. “At no time while I was in con- gress, or after I left congress,” said Watson, “was I in the employ of the National Association of Manufactur- ers for any purpose, nor was I at any time a lobbyist or a lawyer for it.” Watson said he did work for the National Tarlff Commission associa- tion, an organization of several hun- dred associations and many individ- vals, of which the National Associa- tion of Maufacturers was ome. He| declared that Mulhall's charge that| he used his influence ‘to put certain men on house committees and re- move others was without foundation. When asked to give an opinion on a man’s fitness for a committee posi- tion he gave it but went no further. Watson said he never was approached by any National Association of Manufacturers' official to favor any legislatition and never was interested particularly in any bills they favored, except an anti-injunction bill and the proposed exemption of labor unions from the operation of the Sherman law. He said he held the same views as the association on those measures. | Fails to Keep Promise. j Watson explained Mulhall expected to assist him in his campaign for governor in 1908, but worked only a few months and did not make his promises good. He denied that Mul- hall helped raise $22,000 in that cam- paign. His employment by the tariff association was about April 1, 1909, nearly a month after he left congress. He said he was in charge of the cam- paign for a tariff commission while the Payne bill was in the house and later in the senate. “There was nothing secret or in- sidlous about my employment.” said he. “I was not in congress and thought I had a right to that employ- ment. T received $250 a week and my expenses and probably a retainer of $600. There may. have been some talk of a contingent fee, but it must have heen among the officers; T never heard anything about it.” “While I was the whip of the house for six years,” declared Watson pounding on the table in front of him, “I was intimately acquainted with almost every member and T mnever knew a corrupt man in the house.” When questioned about lectures for the manufacturers or allied or- ganizatlons, Watson diverted to take a shot at Secretary Bryan. GAYNOR LEFT LARGE ESTATE Late Mayor of New York Made For- tune in Real Estate. New York, Sept. 13.—The fortune left by the late Mayor Gaynor is esti- mated at between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000. Friends of the late mayor explained that in the early days of Brooklyn's development Gaynor bought choice locations in Flatbush and as the district gave promise of great development invested still more extensively in property there. Flat- bush is now one of the main suburbs of Manhattan and by his investments there Gaynor’s fortune grew to the $1,000,000 mark in the last twenty- two years. Peddlers that had laid in a great store of Gaymor campaign buttons were qnick to get into action. At- taching a piece of mourning to them they appeared on the streets or) “Gaynor mourning buttons.” They succeeded in selling the buttons prob- ably more quickly than they would have done the campaign buttons. ANDERSON DEMANDS PROBE Would Find Out Evils of Caucus Rule in Congress. Washington, Sept. 13.—Making what he called the first step in his fight for more simple legislative methods and the destruction of caucus legislation, Representative Sydney Anderson of Minnesota introduced a resolution for the creation of a committee to inves- tigate and report on the evils of cau- cus legislation. The resolution requires an investi- gation as to whether any secret meth- ods are being used, the effect of which is to unreasonably deprive any member of his rights or prerogatives a8 a member of the house. Anderson resigned his place on the ‘ways and means committee as a pro test against caucus rule. Wisconsin State Employment Offices Predict Further Slump. Madison, Wis., Sept. 13.—The labor market in Wisconsin, as viewed from the state free employment offices, shows there was less demand for labot in July then in June and in Augus} than In July. September gives prom: ise of having a smaller demand than August. In Milwaukee and Superior the sup ply of labor is now greater than the demand. A considerable unfllled de mand for labor still exists in" the smaller towns of the Btate, but this le #ue largely to the low wages paid. | couple in the Broax. mind from which he came.” tor Hans Lc ‘enz was killed here as he GEORGE C. M’ANENY. Refuses Independent Nomina- tion for Mayor of New York. ACCUSED OF TAKING $20,000 Youth Entertained Lavishly on Salary of $18 a Week. New York, Sept. 13.—James G. Mc: Cullom, a dapper young man of twen- ty-two, is in jail, while his bride of a few weeks is mourning in the hand- somely furnished apartments of the McCullom, employed as a bookkeep- er at $18 a week by the American Pressing company,- is charged with stealing $20,000 from his employers He was hired about a year ago and since then has been raising pay checks and keeping the surplus, it is alleged. ‘When arrested McCullom was enter- taining a party of friends. He fre- quently gave entertainments on board his $2,500 motorboat. WANENY TURNS DOWN PROPOSAL Offered Candidacy Camsed by Gaynor’s Death, REFUSAL COMES PROMPTLY President of the Borough of Man- hattan Informs Independents That He Could Not Run for Mayor in Opposition to Mitchel. New York, Sept. 13.—George C, Mc- Aneny, president of the borough of Manhattan and fusion candidate for president of the board of aldermen, was designated by the Gaynor cam- paign managers as their candidate for mayor to take the place made vacant by Mayor Gaynor’s death. Mr. McAneny was quick to decline the designation as head of the Gaynor ticket. “I sincerely appreciate the honor,” he said in a formal statement, “but under no circumstances could I ac. cept a mayoralty nomination in op- position to Mr. Mitchel, the fusion candidate.” New York was a city of mourning for its dead mayor, Willilam J. Gay- nor. Flags flew at half-mast and pub- lic buildings—the city hall, -police headquarters, the municipal building —were draped in black. The board of estimates, called to- gether by Adolph L. Kline, the mayor’s successor, met to arrange for a public funeral to be held shortly after the arrival here of the mayor's body aboard the steamer Lusitania. Monday, Sept. 22, has been suggested as a tentative date. New Mayor Republican. The new mayor, a Republican, who will serve until a successor, to be chosen at the coming November elec- tion, ‘is inaugurated on Jamn. 1, im- tends, he has announced, to carry out the policies of the Gaynor adminis- tration “in so far as I know them,” and to make no changes in appointive officials. oy Messages of condolence from all parts of the country continued to pour in at the office of Robert Ad- amson, the mayor's secretary, and at the Gaynor country home, St. James, L. I, where Mrs. Gaynor and her children are reported to be bearing their loss with fortitude. The dead mayor’s friends recalled a paragraph he wrote in a letter to his sister soon after the atfempt on his life three years ago. It was thus: “I was not a bit afraid to die if it was God’s will of me. I said to my- self, just as well now-as a few years from now. No one who contemplates the immensity, of Almighty God, His universe and His works, and realizes what an atom he is in it all, can fear tc die in this flesh, yea, even though it were through it that he is to lose his identity and be dissolved forever into the infinity of matter and Aviator’'s Body Cremated. Muenster, Germany, Sept. 13.—Avia was completing a two hours’ flight. He descendad ‘at too sharp an angle and the wi. gs buckled. The gasoline tank exploded as it hit the ground and the pilot’s body was partly burned before the fire could be extinguished. Revert to Primitive Life. Aurora, 111, Sept. 13.—Three Chic: go girls who escaped from the Illinois state home for girls at Geneva, Il last Monday were found living in primitive fashion in celllike rooms which had been fashioned in a straw stack for them by young men with whom they had mated: like in ante- civilization days.
