FAIRS WERE KILLED BY AN AUTO IN FRANCE. Millionaire Chicago Racing Man and Companion Had Narrow Escapes—Chauffeur and Mr. Smith Exchanged Cards. While driving a big new Dainiler ma- chine this afternoon on Park avenue, near One Hundred and Twenty-fitth street, the chauffeur crashed into an- other automobile, wrecking it complete- ly and endangering the lives of the two :men who sat in the rear seat of his own auto. The chauffeur, John J, MacMul- kin, gave to the police the names of ‘John A. Drake, the mililonaire Chicago racehorse owner and friend of John W. Gates, and a maninterested in an auto- mobile firm, as the men who were with ‘him at the time of the accident. ‘The wrecked machine belongs to Will- jam B. Smith, of Newmarket, N. J., a brother of Mrs. Charles L. Fair, who, with her husband, ‘was killed in an automobile accident in France. Mr. Smith has just left the automobdile, which is of old pattern and of the run- about type, when the collision occurred. He was on the stairs of the Harlem (Central Hotel, in front of which his euto was standing. After tie smashing of the lighter me- Chine, both the man, who the chauffeur @aid was Mr. Drake, and his companion ‘hastened for a car north bound. They Swere on their way to the races, The cause of the accident was a slip- Ping on the wet road, the tires skidding to the side and throwing the bigger machire into the smaller one. Mr, Smith and the chaueur arraned the matter between themselves, exchanging cards and appointing a time when dif- ferences Could be settled. Mr, Drake ‘was anxious to ge away from the scene of the accident as noon as possible. Mr. Gmith has become an automobile fancier of late, and was driving his machine through Harlem preparatory. to a trip to Philadelphia. When Bicycle Policeman Peter Henry arrived he found Mr. Smith and the chauffeur in perfect accord and, as no charges or complaints were made, he made no arrests. The registry on the machine in which Mr. Drake was riding bore the name “Dainiler Manufacturing Compamy, 937- 945 Steinway avenue, Long Island City.” The Smith machine was a complote wreck, but the other was not seriously {njured. The chauffeur sald he was taking the machine out for a test to show how well it could perform for a prospective bayer. -BESSIE ANTHONY WINS GOLF HONORS Player from Chicago Captures the Women’s Championship from Miss Carpenter, of “Westward Ho.” TRENTON, Ill., Oct. 3.—The women's national golf championship belongs to Miss Bessie Anthony, of the Glenview Clud, Chicago.

Anne Carpenter, of Westward Ho, in the finals for the championship over the Wheaton course to-day, taking the load st the fourth hole and steadily increasing it Qntil the end came at the twelfth hole, Miss Anthony winning 7 up and 6 to play. Considering the weather conditions, a| do: thirty-mile gale sweeping over e course during the entire y, Miss An- thony's game was remarkable. Only twice was she in trouble, getting into he bunker guarding the first hole on a je brassy, t and driving out of unds on the seventh, Ghe saved the latter hole, however, by a clever ap- proach shot into the green. With those ‘exceptions her game was of true cham- plonghip calibre. Miss Carpenter, on the contrary, yed in wofully bad form.

Opposition to his stand has developed and will find open expression at the meeting of the, Brooklyn Executive Committee to be held to-night to take action on the outcome of the Carnegi@ Hall convention, Senator Patrick MeCarren will introduce and advocate a resolution calling upon the Brooklyn organization to support the Demooratie ticket from top to bottom. In this he will be joined by District Leaders William Melody, Henry Haggerty, William McGuire, George H. Lindsay, Conrad Havenfivg, James Kane and William Brennan. These leaders will contend that inasmuch as the Democracy of Edward M. Grout is acceptable to the Tammany organization, which holds the power in the Democracy of the city, it would be well to follow the lead of Tam- many and indorse him. They will point out that if Tammany Hall shouid happen to win without the ald of the Brooklyn organization the enormous patronage of that borough would be handed to persons antagonistic to the Willoughby street machine. The Tammany powers have not yet despaired of having McLaughlin come argund. He has been known to compromis? be- fore. BROOKLYN BOROUGH TICKET. The following borough ticket will be named at the Broklyn Democratic conference to-night: President of the Borough, Martin Littleton; Sheriff, Henry Hesterburg; Register, Matthew EH. Dooley; County Clerk, Edward Kaufman; District-Attorney, John F. Clarke. There is no chance for Julian D, Fairchild and Herman A. Metz to be nominated for Comptroller and President of the Board of Aldermen by the Fuslonists. President Cutting, of the Citizens’ Union, said to-day-that the names of these men could not be considered because they had been men- .| tioned in the Carnegie Hall convention. It was reported this afternoon that Meyer J. Stein, who recently re~ signed from the Greater New York Democracy, says he can show that the Citizens’ Union is furnishing the funds for the campaign of William 8, Devery. The nature of Mr. Stein's proof could not be obtained. He is safd- to have expressed a desire to withhold his information from the public until Monday. ’ CALL FOR NEW CONVENTION. A new Republican Cjty Convention has been called for next Wednesiizy- to drop Grout and Fornes and nominate new candidates in their places. The Fusion conference to select the names of the nominees will be held on Mon-' day afternoon at 5 o'clock. There is no doubt in the minds of the Fusionists: that they can drop Grout and Fornes. : The letter of R. Fulton Cutting to Edward M. Grout, demanding that the latter resign from the Fusion ticket, was made public to-day, and it is a pretty warm document. Right at the start Mr. Cutting tells Mr. Grout that he has “proved unequal to the situation.” “It is true,” says Mr. Cutting, ‘that Croker is no longer here and that Devery has gone, but Murphy and Tim Sullivan remain, No one knows Detter than you do that the choice between Fusion and Tammany govern- ment 1s a choice between good and evil. No one knows better than you that the hard names you yourself called Tammany Hall are true to-day. IF THEY KNEW GROUT IN TIME! “Had you been true to the Fusion cause you could have answered my letter esking you to explain your attitude in a single sentence. Mr. Murphy te willing to pay the price of a Fusion Comptroller and President of the Board of Aldermen for his own Mayor. He could well afford to do so, “The antagonism of the Citizens’ Union to Tammany Hall has not dim- {mished. We had no {dea at the time of our nominating convention, on Sept. 28, that you would be offered the Tam@oany nomination. Had we known you then as we know you now we would not have nominated you, The notification committee that met you at the home of Mayor Low had no power to withdraw your nominatio’ yn.” Mr. Cutting denied to-day that he ever used the expression “I don’t care ‘a sap of my finger for the Irish-Catholic vote,” ascribed to him by Mr. Cronin of the Greater New York Democracy. When asked if the Fusion conterrees would nominate Julian D. Fairchild and Herman A, Mets for Comptroller and President of the Board of Aldermen he settled their chances by saying that no man could be nominated whose name was men~ tioned at the Tammany convention. A letter to Mr, Fornes from Mr, Cutting notifies him that, his explana- tion of his stand with relation to Tammany is not sufficiently explicit, and ‘his acceptance of the nomination makes it impossible for the Citizens’ Union to present him to the electorate as one of its cantidates-for office, GROUT WILL KEEP UP FIGHT.
