CThis te the fourth of the series of @rtiles on the outiook for both par- ties which Mr. Lawrence is writing on @ tour of the country.) By David Lawrence.. (Special Correspondent of The Eve- ning World.) A DETROIT, Sept. 28 (Copyright). The Democrats have the best chance of electing @ United States Senator io Michigan that they have "had since the Civil War. Translated into pohit- ieal actualities, however, this is only another way of saying the Republican majority of 850,000 will be extensively reduced and Senator Townsend, Re- publican. will pull through by a relat tively small margin. Th comyelen has hardly begun, but will admitted that form Gov. Ferris, who is running for the United States Senate on the Demo- cratic ticket, is a fascinating speaker and vote-getter. Twice he carried this State and to do sb any Democrat ‘must win the Republican voters to his standard by tens of thoysands. His strength was not sufficient, how- ver, two years ago to offset the Harding ticket and he was defeated by 360,000, which was only 80,000 bettéF than the Democratic total for Presitient. Those who believe former Gov. Fer- tis has a chance to win base their hunch on the fact that he has twice carried a Republican State such size as this. They argue the 1920 landslide would have buried anybody. Mr. Ferris promises an interesting campaign for Michigan. As for issues, the chief complaint against Senator Townsend ts that he refused to vote to unseat his colleague, Truman H. Newberry. There is a good deal of agitation over Newberry. | can.

Five firemen, one of whom will aie, are in Brooklyn Hospital following their spectacular rescue by brother firemen after they had been hurled down a.steep flight of staira by a back draught, several other firemen were less severely injured and a woman and six men were saved shortly after 8 o'clock this morning when flames swept a four-story brick building at No. 9 Hanson Place, Brooklyn, opposite the Long Island Station. ? ‘The firemen in the hospit&! all are members of Engine Company No. 226. They are Lieut. John Judge of No. 109 Albany Avenue, and Firemen Matthew J. Cavanaugh of No. 948 Jefferson Avenue, J. J. Cannon of No. 806 Blake Avenue, Willlam J. Pritchard of No. 147 Smith Street, and Frederick Stenton of No, 188 North Oxford Street, all of Brooklyn. Cannon, Pritchard and Cavanaugh are In a serious condition and Can- non {s not expeated to recover. The fire occurred at the height of the rush hour and police reserves had to be called from the Bergen Street Station to keep the thousands mov~ ing to and from the Long Island Sta- tion and the subways. For a time firemen were seriously hampered by these crowds. The building {s occupied on the ground floor by a United Cigar Store, on the second George's Hat Com: pany, and on t§e upper two by fur- nished rooms cdnducted by Mrs. Bliz- abeth Jones and her son, Hamilton. The flames originated Im the hut es- tablishment.

SYRACUSD, Sept. .| divided in their preference between which brough: Battalion Chief Ber- nard Rassmuss and Deputy Chief Thomas Langford, as well as several companies, among which was Engine No. 226. Lieut. Judgs and his four men were the first into the building and had reached the second floor landing with a line of hose when they were caught in an explosion caused by back draught that blew out every window in the house and hurled the five to the foot of the stairs. The street door was blown shut by the explosion and the unconscious firemen became lodged against it, so that entry to the building had to be forced. Firemen Joseph Daugherty, chauf- feur for Chtef Rassmuss, and: Frred- erick. Herman, chauffeur for Chief Langford, saw at a glance what had happened and rushed to the aid of their fellow workers. But they were not a bit more alert than Gompy who appears to have been the busie: man at the scane. The three forced the door by brute strength and carried Lieut. Judge and his men to safety. All were In a semi-conecious state and were placed in Dougherty’s ma- chine and rushed to the hospital. Gompers himself had to be at- tended by a Fire Department surgeon after his second rescues. When his work was completed he returned to his home for a much needed scrub- bing. Fireman James Stewart, of Patrol No. 9, also was severely injured, but he remained at bis post after having been treated by a Fire Department surgeon. He was badly cut on both wrists by flying glass when the ex» plosion shattered the windows, Smith More Saving Than Miller, Walker Says in Keynote Speech Last Democratic Administration, He Declares Spent $44,000,000 Less Than Present. SYRACUSE, sept! 28.—Senator James J. Walker delivered a scathing attack on the National and State Republican Administrations in his “key- note” speech in opening the Democratic State Convention to-day. After denouncing the new tarift¢- law, the Daugherty injunction and the Newberry decision in'the Senate, he turned to the State administration. He referred to Gov, Miller as & lawyer who is working practically all the time for the corporations, de- nounced the action of the Republican Legislature in abolishing the pri- maries for State and judicial nomina~ tions and denied emphatically that the Miller administration had put into operation a plan of practical economy. On the contrary, he asserted ‘'that the last Democratic (Smith) admin- istration cost $44,000,000 less than the present Miller administration." He cited the report of the Comptroller to show that at the end of the Smith regime there was a surplus of over $48,000,000 in the State treasury, that this had been reduced by approxi- mately $2,000,000 at the end of Mill- er’s first year in office end that on June 30 of next year it will have been cut to not quite $22,000,000. ‘The reduction in the State tax rate, he asserted, was due to the adoption of a constitutional amendment chang- ing certain methods of financing by the State, and asked if it would not have been a simpler way to return the “alleged saving’ of the Governor to the taxpayer by reducing the in- come tax or elimination of “‘some of the unnecessary forms of taxation.” He decried reorganization of the State Labor Department, rting its efficiency had been destroyed, and charged the State hospitals have been allowed to deteriorate because of de- creased appropriations. 47 YEARS TO GET COLLEGE DEGREE ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 28. —Forty-six years ago Miss Idella Hawley of Aurora, Il., entered the University of Michigan.

Satisfied that Stheir <laims for recognition of one of thelr own sex will be in vain wher {t comes time to put the finishing touches to thebalance of the elate, most of the women are concentrating thelg energies toward the nomination of Al. Smith and are selling Al Smith campaign buttons to every man who will pay a quarter for one. The women advocating the cause of the editor-politician are In a very, small minority. The Smith women have opened headquarters in the Ons ondaga Hotel, where Miss Harriet May Mills, co-leader of the State with Herbert R. Pell jr., {e bolding forth, end is surrounded every hour of. the day with a coterie of lieutenants. Is is no secret that the women have tried in vain, however,.to secure a place on the ticket for Mrs. Daniel O'Day of Rye, Westchester County. At @ dinner given in the Leaven- worth Hotel last night by the Women's Democratic Club of Syra~ cuse, Mrs. O"Day was hailed as “‘our next Secretary of State’? when she arose to address an assemblage of 300 women from all parts of the State. Mrs. O'Day in the course of her re- roclaimed: We can win with Al Smith, the man the Democratic women want for Governor,"" This provoked a spon~ ‘taneous outburst, which ended in calls for Mrs. Smith to rise and acknowl~ edge the tribute paid to her husband. Miss Mills introduced the toastmas~ ter, Mrs. Candee Brown Knicker~° bocker, Vice President of the Syra~ cuse Women's Club, who pleaded with the women to organize in every, district of the State.
