The Scheme to Trade Part of the County Ticket for the Legislature. ‘Mr. Thomas Collier Platt, Republican boss of New York, knows better than any other politician in this country how to get in out of the rain, He's alw with a mackintosh, an umbrell knows where the handicet and largest shelter trees grow. And what is more to the purpose, he knows how and when to make use of all of them. That he is gifted with these qualities to an even more remark- able degree than some of his warmest admirers give him credit for is mani- fest by the graceful manner in which he has climbed down off “Smooth Ed" Lauterbach's “straight ticket pedestal. The announcement that he has done 80 doesn't bear the big red Parlor D-R seal of one of Mr Platt’s official state- ments, but 't bears enough of the ear- marks of authenticity to justify its ac- ceptance as reflecting Mr. Platt's con- version to the Irresistible logic of the Republican situation, The Mayor, backed up by the Union League Club, the State Democracy, the Independent County Organization and pretty nearly all of the unattached re- form crowds, has insisted all along that only a kangaroo ticket fashioned after the one that knocked the spots out of Tammany last Fall could secure the support of the majority of Republicans and Reformers this time. To nominate auy other sort of ticket bearing the Republican indorsement, the Mayor declared, would be to commit hari-kar! or something equally fatal. All the reform bodies and anti-machine Republicans indorsed this view, and threatened to put up a ticket of their own unless Mr. Platt and his crowd came into the kangaroo scheme. The machine Republicans howled for @ straight ticket with the enthusiasm of Mahometan Dervishes and the shrill- est treble in all the lot belonged tc “Smooth Ed.” That energetic little gen- tleman was actually violent in his an- tagonism to a mixed ticket and all the star criers on his staff were sent broad- cast throughout the town to work uj sentiment against it. But fcr all the opposition from thi machine men the kangaroo idea caught on, and It became apparent last week that If a straight ticket were put up there'd be the all-firedest sort of a row in the Republican camp. Then the machine men began to “trim,” as they say in Tammany. “Smooth Ed" and Chaciey Murray and their followers howled just us loud- ly for a straight tieket 4s they have done before, but Mr. Plazt began to saw wood, and yesterday, when cor- ralled some of his henchmen by the sad sea waves at Manhattan Beach, the sprinters he made almost submerged the straight ticket men. He didn't come out flat-footed union ticket. No boss ever does that. But he reasoned in that quiet, plaus- fble manner of his, like a good oll fashioned elder converting a parcel of sinners, that even If there was a union ticket the machine would conduct and control the contests for the Legislature. Furthermore, it 1s believed, Elder Platt told his associates that compared to the Legislature the county ticket was a Rhinestone sized up with a five-carat @iamond. His view (enforced by @lub) was understood to that the machine would come in for three or four places on the county ticket anyway, and would absolutely control all the legislative nominations. For that Feason he is understood to have express- ed the belief that the machine would fare much better by making sure of one bird in a trap than by chasing two that might get away. Mr, Platt expects to elect three or four Senators in the city and possibly seven Assemblymen: \ ‘Phe Senators will have a voice in the for a the Mayor's be in effect selection of one United States Senator "Phe three districts in which Mr, Hott tu Fi expects to elect Senators are teenth, Seventeenth and Nincteenth. Most Republicans concede that Tam- many will elect the other nine Senators who will represent the city. ‘that Tammany will elect the other nine Senators who will represent the city. : This “trimming” on the part of Mr. Platt isn't relished by “Smooth Hd" and his followers, but they'll come to Uke it after awhile, as they always do, and Mr. Platt will escape a drenching.

Deputy Fire Marshal O'Bullivan saya he has learned that Buddenkepper frequently expressed to his friends his suspicions that Weill was an incendiary. The two men did not get along and on the first of July the partnership was dissolved. Weill went away and Buddenkepper did busi- ness at the old stand. The firemen discovered, after putting out the fire in the upholstery shop, that it had evidently started in three dif- ferent places at the same time. An in- vestigation was made. The two work- men employed by Buddenkepper said they left the shop that night at 8.80 O'clock. ‘The proprietor was still there uddgtikepper sald he left the place at 15 o'clock, but the Deputy Fire Mar- shal says he has evidence to prove he was in the building five minutes before the fire was discovered, This Buddenkepper dented this morn- ing.

MISS CLARK FOUNO AT LAST. —— ooo First Page) (Continued from that her mind might have given way, John Edson Sweet, of Byracuse, Miss Clark's brother-in-law, notified . the chiefs of police throughout the country of her disappearance. Photographs and descriptions were wired to every point. Finally Mr, Bweet engaged Supt, Beck, who found clues which led to the same situation as what "The World” already kne It was decided for the good of those concerned to work together. Miss Clark left Plainfield with five $50 bills. It was her intention to price furniture for “Stratford,” the name of her proposed girls’ seminary at 1004 Park avenue, Plainfield, N. J. She also carried a brown travelling bag. fhis has avt bern found, Complains of Pains in Her Head, When Miss Clark left she wore a dark serge skirt and a muslin shirt waist, with a brown rough-and-ready straw hat and no veil. When found she was dressed in black and wore large blue glasses, Miss Clark complains of pains in her head and says her eyes have troubled her considerably of late. She had pur- chased an entire new outft, and instead of the little travelling bag used a large cheap cloth suit case. . In her clothes and actions she en- deavored to carry out the part of “Mary, Burke,” a maid. When “The World” reporter and Supt. Beek searched the school a copy of a morning paper of Sunday, Aug, 6, was found. Three “personals” were marked from persons desiring a governess, This shows that even at that time, three days; from the time she really disappeared, her mind was turning. Bought a Ticket for Boston, The reporter and detective found that @ woman answering Miss Clark's de- seription had purchased a ticket for Boston. In Boston evidences that she had been there were found, as she made a few purchases. Samples of Miss Clark's handwriting were procured. All ‘the employment agenicies were searched. In the employ- ment agency at 691 Washington street, Boston, ‘Mary Burke's" handwriting was found to be remarkably like Mii Clark's. 1t was learned at this employment agency that Mary Burke had gone to Fitchburg, Mass., and was employed by Miss Gillett, Relatives of Miss Clark were sent for.

She looked long and intently at those before her and in a voice showing no emotion or feeling sald: “Come in, How did you get here Miss Clarke sat as one mute. Onty Speaks When Spoken to, She looked at her visitors. She only spoke when spoken to, and seemed desirous of not holding a con- versation, She was told of the sufferings of her relatives and their fears of her safety. She listened and showed no animation. She was told to get her things in shape. and that the party would leave at once for Syracuse, the home of her sister and brother-in-law. She packed her things like a dutiful child and walked along with her friends, but all the time showing no inclination to speak unless spoken to, when she would simply say “Wo” or "Yes." Miss Clark and a relative, accom- panied by Detective Beck, left for Syra- cuse at 10.28 A. M. to-day. Miss Clark showed no interest at all in her surroundings. She seemed to reailae that she was with those whose minds were stronger than hers, and went along peacefully, One peculiar feature of Miss Clark's mania ‘s this: When herself, she writes generally in German, and frequently speaks that tongue.

The Gigantic Work of Reclaiming Land in Holland. The people of Holland have under- taken a gigantic work, by means of which they expect to recover the larger part of the territory now covered by the Zuyder Zee, the inland of the country, and turn {t again into a fer- tile farming region, says the Milwaukee Journal. It is now just five centuries since the inundation of that part of the Netherlands now covered by the Zuy- der Zee was completed, the encroach- ments of the sea having I going on. for 225 years, previous to which Ume the territory was covered with forests.
