Commissioner of Accounts, Appointed as the Representative of the Greater New York Democracy, Sends His Resignation Because He Refuses to Support Low for Re-election Now. Will Clash with John C. Sheehaw at the Meeting To-night of the Execu- tive Committee, at which a Vote on the Endorsement of Low is to be Taken, W. Hepburn Russell, Commissioner of Accounts, resigned this after- noon and will work for the Tammany ticket. He sent his formal resig- nation to the Mayor and it was accepted immediately. The understanding is that the Mayor will appoint a successor to Mr. Hepburn Russell to- morrow. The Commissioner of Accounts was one of the organizers of ths Greater New York Democracy and has opposed the renomination of Mayor Low tror the first. He cays that as a Democrat he cannot sup- port a ticket with Mayor Low at the head of it in view of the fact thar we are on the eve of a National campaign. Mr. Russell was very active on the Fusion side in the campaign two years ago. He promised that he world expose gigantic frauds of the, Van Wyck administration, and on the strength of this promise the Mayor appointed him Commissioner of Accounts. He went through the books of the Van Wyck administration with a fine-toothed comb, a telescope and a searchlight, but he couldn’t scratch out the gigantic fraunds. When he decided to oppose the renomination of Mayor Low he wrote to the Mayor asking if he had better resign. The Mayor replied that he had better hold onto his jb, irrespective of how he felt about a renomination. Since that time Mr. Russell has seen the Tammany light andhe is going to follow it: This means a split in the G. N. Y. D. The Russelt foflowing in the organization will go over to Tammany with him, In the mean time John C, Sheehan stands pat. INDORSEMENT OF LOW MAY SPLIT SHEEHAN’S PARTY, @ifliam Hepburn Russel, Chairman o! ne Executive Committee of the Great New York Democracy, spent the da) gathering ammunition for the fight to- night at the mect.ng of the Executiv Committee of the Greater New York De- moeracy. when the question of indors- ing Mayor Low and the Fusion candi- ates determined upon at the rec ant!-Tammany conference | will be di: weussed, Mr. Russeil's frame of mind may be judged from the opening sen- tepee of an Interview with a reporter of Tho Evening World. “If this is a non-partisan administfa- tion I would like to know it," said Mr. mental in causing the election of Mayor -ow Mr. Sheehan has been turned down vsgracefully py the present administra- on, while Republicans who cut but a small figure In the election two years ED been favored from the very rt.

Mr. Russell was making tracks for Yhe offices of other members of the committee, whom he expects to act ‘with him in opposition to the indorse- ment of Low. At the same time John C. Sheehan, who 1s credited with being In favor of {the Fuston candidates, was energetical- ty going In other directions, seeking to stampede ‘of the committee each gentleman expressing tmost friendliness for the other, sald he was only acting “on brought about his election.

He feejs that he is in duty bound to support Mayor Low, and he is out to work for Mayor Low's re- election. Why He Opposes Low. “But many of us feel that,Mayor Low is the candidate who will be nominated. He is not the non-partisan he pretends to be, His acts have Indicated that he * has strong leanings toward the Repub- Ticans, and that his oficial powers have frequently been employed in the direc- tion of Republicanism, and for the pur- pose of strengthening the Republican hold ‘on the voters of this county, “He cannot be the representative of ‘the independent Domacrats, who helped to elect him two years ago, and who will be oxpected to re-elect him at the coming election.

That spectacle was presented a week ago to-day on the Atlantic. Ocean, off Martha’s Vineyard. The battleship was the Indiana, and the man who fired the shots was Able Seaman H. W. Trainor, of St. Paul, It was a feat in naval markmanship without a parallel. Trainor is to-day the greatest shot in the world, when the-ponder- ous nature of his weapon is considered. And to his credit and the credit of the Navy be it said that he is virtually self-taught, as his proficiency - was attained in voluntary practice and not under the direction of the — chief officers of the ship. Lieut.-Commander Hudson is. proud of the record of T: of the record made by all of his men in recent target practice, from the’ Indiana réturned yesterday. For Trainor was not the only man.on board who did remarkable shooting. Nevertheless, he is the champion of the world and his mates look up to him.
