Speaker Nixon, Mr, Odell and Senator Malby hurred from the Fifth Avenve Hotel early and entering a coupe were driven away. The ox-Governor took his colleagues in tow when the newspaper men ap- proached the trio, Hhe sald he was not then prepared to make any state- ment fot publication, He (ntimated, however, that he would have something to say before his de- parture for Eurobe on the Princess Loulee to-morrow, What the ex-Goy- ernor will have to say will be of in- terest to New York, for he is going b> tell the character cf tegis'ation decided upon for this city. It was to settle thea that thee nee was called, .

It 1s proposed to néduce the | price of gas five cents a year for each of the next five years, thus eventually reaching 4 price of 75 cents a thousand, | Senator John C, Fitzgerald of this2elty has already presented a bill dn the Leg- Selature urging that the price of gas be | immediately reduced to 70 cents, Odell | ‘was apprised from Albnny that at a public hearing given the Witsgerald bill the representatives of the gas,companies | Weclined to state the cost of production | and the attorneys for the compantes en- deavored to throw every obstacle In the | way Of the committee getting at that vita} fact, Odell in expressing a @ bill which will gradua educe the price of gas until the seventy-five cent mark {8 reached {s playing right into the hands of the gas companies, It was eald to-day by several politicians at the Fifth avenue hotel. They declared the City of New York ultimately own it’s own gas and ¢ lc plants. For a State. “Boss.” Besides gas, the republican confores fare going Into tie police and excise uestions, It 1s known that something efinate will be determined upon be-| fore the conference closes, It was learned to-day that Odell has @ plan for placing all city boards of} Elections under State supervision and {ngtead of maintaining a State Super- Intendent of Hlections In ‘this city as is e at present, to have a Albany who wil run things during election times from his office, So far as ts known no Dill ating this change has as vet dls. conten been drawn but the cussed at the conte Li ds not designed Buperintendent Monga him the Manhattan deputy under the | jurisdiction of the| proposed election ‘boss” at Albany. ‘The present local sard will not be abolished either but I] be under State pervigion, ——_—— SHOT HE SAYS BY ACCIDENT Rae Wounded Mysteriously and Police Permit Friend to Leave Without Questioning Him— Women Bind Wound, but to make While George Rae, of No, 62 Wayne mtreet, Jersey City, lay moaning In the Adams Street Pollce Station, Brook- lyn, to-day, with a bullet wound In hls Knee, the man who had w led him on an “L" train bade the paliee farewell and departed from the place, A few minutes later Sergt, MeCarthy suddenly realized that Rae had been wounded inatead of injured by a train, as ho had at first supposed, “Where's the man that did the job?" tasked the sergeant. excitedly, “Why, he just told you good-by a lit tle while ago," sald one of the officers, “We mus: have him at once,’ shouted the sergeant, ‘This Is a fine state of affairs for a man to shoot another, walk to the police station and then walk away again.” Phe mistake made by the pollco was due to the fact that they were busy | with a nuirder case at the “ime Rae} was brought into the station and were Rae told them afterward that the man who shot him was William Hughes, LAt.NO. 45 Gordon street, Brooklyn, ‘According to Hae's statement ne and Hughes were riding toward the Bridge on a Jifth avenue "L" train when, nea the Union street station, a re- volver In Hughes's over okel was accidentally discharg bullet struck Rao In ths Knee, train was run to Bridge street and heid there until a policeman arrived, and then Rae and Hughes were taken to the Adains street station, Ray might have died from loss of blood had not three women passengers {n the car promptly offered thew hand- kerchlefs, which they ted together Into IH tourniqunet and bound the Injured len me Of course you're reading "The Retu of Sherlock Holmes."
