— Th*- thoughtful ettlaen in casting his

ti>e 5100.000.000 barge canal in its hands.
"Second, a vote against Ptimson means a
vote against President Taft.
"Third, a vote against Stlmaon means a
vote for ■ Democratic Congress, with cer
tain efforts for a sweeping revision of the
t;.!ifT and the consequent general convul
sion of businers.
•Fourth, a vote against Stimson is a vote
for a Democratic President in 1912."

MR. BARNES RESIGNS
Dropped from Executive Board.
He Quits State Committee.
WILL SUPPORT THE TICKET
Albany Leader Holds Mr. Pren
tice Questioned His Party
Loyalty.
Albany. Oct.. 12 -Contending that his
party loyalty had been questioned through
the failure of Ezra P. Prentice, the new
chairman of the Republican State Commit
tee, to reappoint him a member of the ex
ecutive committee of the state committee,
William Barnes. Jr.. of Albany, has ten
dered his resignation as state committee
man from the 23d Congress District, com
prising Albany and Schenectady counties.
Mr. Barnes was looked on as the leader of
the "old guard" In the fight against Theo
dore Roosevelt a? temporary chairman of
the recent Republican State Convention at
Saratoga,
In Ms letter Mr. Barnes say?:
In reading the list of the members of
the executive committee of the state com
mittee, announced by you this morning. I
find that my name is not among the num
ber.
The mere fact of membership in the ex
ecutive committee it entirely unimportant,
but after having served as a member or
that committee ever since I was first
elected to the state committee, in IS9-.
the omission involves the inevitable con
clusion that your action was caused either
by your belief that my services would not
i>c- useful or that I was faithless to the
Republican ticket: Under neither suppo
sition can I rest.
Having been a member of the executive
committee for eighteen ye.-rrs. if my ser
vices are no longer useful or my party
loyalty is questioned by you. as the head
of the organization, then I am no longer
qualified to serve under you as a member
of the state committee itself.
It lias been my habit not to carry light
ly the responsibilities and burdens of the
commatteemanship which I have held. i
cannot, therefore, maintain the proper
sense of political ethics and serve upon a
committee the chairman of which holds
tlie attitude toward my political activity
which you have disclosed. I therefore
tender my resignation to you as a member
of the state committee, to take effect im
mediately.
Th» state convention is the supreme au
thority of the party, and 1 shall vote for
Mr. Stimson and the rest of the Repub
lican ticket, and Individually work for its
flection.
Mr Barnes was re-elected state com
:nan for two years a' thO Saratoga
convention, although the vote of Schenec-
TH'iy i"ouniy was cist against him. If the
Ftntr committee accepts the resignation, it
!;a« t!:r- power to fill the vacancy. There
appears to be s^me doubt as to -whether
fin.-- active member of the Albany county
KepubHcan organization would accept the
anpotetnteat. On the other hand, if a sup
porter of «>x-rresident Roosevelt is named
as Mr Barnes's successor interestincr de
velopments would probably resjU, in
View 'f Xho decided stand taken by the
local organization in opposition to the for
mer President.
RESIGNATION CAUSES STIR
Republicans in This City Mysti
fied by Action of Barnes.
Republican* in this city were pretty well
Mirrel up over the resignation of William
Barnes, jr.. from the state committee. Most
of them didn't know just what -to make of
it. find some of them said frankly they
didn't like it. Most of them uc.o very gla-i
Mr. Barnes hid coupled with his resigna
tion the announcement that he intended to
-.«;te and work for the Republican ticket.
State Chairman Prentice said Mr. Barnes
evidently had misunderstood the situation
if he figured that lie was being turned down
in any way or his loyalty or usefulness
questioned. Mr. Prentice Issued this for
mal statement in answer to Mr. Barnes's
letter:
I received from William Barnes, jr.. this
morning a letter tendering his resignation
as a member of the state committee, upon
the ground that my action in omitting to
appoint him a member of the executive
committee involve?, the " conclusion that I
believe his services will not be useful or
that he was faithless to the- Republican
ticket.
In this letter Mr. Barnes assures me that
1: - will vote and work for Mr. Slimson and
the rest of the Republican ticket
The conclusion that 1 believe Mr. Barnes's
services will not be useful or that he is
faithless to the Republican ticket is incor
rect. l believe Mr. Barnes's services are
extremely useful, and I am certain that he
and th*» Albany County organization will
be absolutely loyal to in* ticket. Mr.
Barries has always been loyal to the Re
publican ticket when nominated, and I
would be certain, without hie assurance, of
bis loyalty. He has assured me. as has the
chalrnian of the Albany County committee,
Luther C. Warner, who called upon me
• ■■ .lav.
1 regi that Mr. Barn*-?: has taken th<?
view lie does of my failure to appoint him
h member of the executive eommittc-e.
<Jeorpe W. Aldridge. Representative Her
! Bert Parsons, one of the Piogiieaiive lean
ers; John T. Mot:, who vote! with the
1 Roosevelt men in the convention, and John
1 F. O'Brien were others who were not re
appointed on the executive committee.
Lloyd C. Griscom declined to comment
on Mr. Barnes's letter Senator Root, who
bad another talk yesterday with Chairman
Prentice, had nothing to say about Mr.
Barnes's action.

LAWYERS IN VERBAL WAR
Fuchs and Jackson Quarrel Over
Hot Springs Gambling Case.
NEITHER STRIKES A BLOW
Many "Short and Ugly Words"
Uttered In and Around the
Hall of Records.
The expected encounter between William
H. Jackson. Assistant Corporation Counsel.
and Emi! K. Fuchs, lawyer, and on^e a
Deputy Attorney GenemJ. took place short
ly after noon yestarday under the arches
of the Hall of Records. The dignity of the
spot had no influenre upon the quality of
compliments exchanged by the two men.
Blows were prevented by the interference
of those who had pathered to -witness the
fray.
When they met arctic cold seemed to
exude from them, but slowly their tem
perature rose, and with the growth nf
wrath the epithets hepan to fly fast. Mr.
Jackson called Mr. Puchs a liar, a dog and
a contemptible, infernal falsifier, and Mr.
Fuchs called Mr. Jackson a gambler, a
drunkard and a Har.
At several points of the running en
counter—lt commenced on the sixth floor,
continued in the elevator, and was fin
ished in the vestibule— a recourse to blows
appeared imminent. Mr. Jackson raised his
fist and moved on Mr. Fuchs. but he
checked himself after making a short step.
Jackson Chief Witness.
The animosity of the two m^n besran
through the trial of Thomas O'Brien, pro
prietor of the WoodUuid Club, in Virginia
Hot Spring:?, after a raid on this fashion
al (c resort and the discovery that it was
S gambling place. Mr. Jackson appeared
ss the chief witness for the prosecution it
O'Brien's trial in Hot Springs Saturday
last. He swore that Emil E. Fuchs had
called at his office and tried to intimidate
him into staying away from the trial,
threatening that O'Brien would "get Urn"
if he should testify.
Mr Fuchs not only drnled this, but an
nounced on Sunday tha< he would demand
an apology from Mr. Jnckson with whom,
he said, he had never had a conversation
except once over the telephone.
Mx. Jackson returned from Hot SprinTS
yesterday, and shortly after 12 o'clock
came to his office to await the call of Mr.
Fuchs. who had promised his visit for
12.30. Mr. Jackson waited almost an hour,
then closed his office and went into the
hall to take the elevator. As he approached
it Mr. Fuchs stepped out of the car.
He had all the appearances of meaning
strict business, and had with him a com
panion of imposing physique to add to the
dignity of the meeting, and another armed
with the knowledge and paraphernalia of
stenography to make an accurate report of
the finesse of the repartee.
"Mr. Jackson." Hod Fuchs in icy t<-m*?,
"why did you fay that I tried to intimidate
you?"
"You told me that if I testified it would
probably result in the loss of my position,"
answered Mr. Jackson In an equally cold
manner.
"I did no such thing." retorted Mr. Fuchs,
now growing warmer. "You sent for me
and told me that, you did not want to tes
tify in the O'Brien case; that you had
been employed as a stool pigeon."
"How dare you tell such a contemptible,
infernal lie?" shouted Mr. Jackson, now
white and trembling with rage.
Mr. Fuchs mad* a quick move for his
pocket, and everybody drew back, but it
was only a formidable looking legal paper
that he pulled out. He unfolded it and be
gan to read from the testimony given by
Mr. Jackson at Hot Sprinps.
The question? that Mr. Fu^hs began to
ask brought Mr. Jackson's ire to white
heat. "Too are a dirty dog."' he cried, rais
ing his arm and stepping forward. Mr
Fuchs's stalwart friend moved between the
two, and the .tfbetacle of a seven-footer
calmed Mr. Jackson.
"You have no right to question me," he
said.
"I will brir<r til.-; whole matter to the
attention of Corporation Counsel Watson,"
replied Fuchs "1 will s*>e that this will be
investigated and you dismissed."
A suggestion was made that further com
pliments were rather difficult to invent and
that the choicest ones might Just as well
Ih> pxflianged on thf> way ..nt of the build
ing. So all piled into the waiting elevator
and the descent of the party and their
progress through the vostibul^ and out into
Chambers street were made to the harsh
tone of "liar." "dog" and all the short and
uelv words that either of the two could
think of.
FucHs Makes Statement.
Mr Fuchs then gave out the following
f-tatement :
■'< 'ii September 2^ Mr. Arpndt. my man
asrlnr clerk, told me that there was a man
on the telephone by the n;im>' of Jackson,
stating that h« was an Assistant Corpora
tion Counsel. 1 asked hiiii over the tele
phone what ho wanted. He told me that tr*
would like to ?fp me in his office In refer
• ,i matter In which he was involved.
He t<>id me that h<- was in a little <]iftt
< ultv, and that ii»^ would co Into detail if
I would rome to see him.
"At 12:30 o'clock I walked directly to Mr.
Collins's office and said, # I came in answer
to a telephone message received from Mr.
Jackson."
"Frank McOuade was present. They told
i,;> Jackson v.as out. I then went to lunch
eon with M r . McQuade. and requested that
■ t be with me, ss he told me that he
was s friend of Jackson. Jackson was then
in his office with another Assistant Corpo
ration Counsel, and when I entered 1 said,
in the presence of these men:
■ -.Mr Jackson, i came in answ< r to your
i. ]■ ..\\<i'.n- message-
"Mr. M<-Quade wa- present when I said
this.
"Jackson answered: 'You were recom
mended to me. Mr. Fuchs, as between at
torney and client. I want to relate my
position to you in strict confidence.'
■ - I recret to-day's incident, but I insist
tliat i have acted properly. My next move
will be to demand the dismissal of Mr.
Jackson. He 13 unfit entirely."
Before his encounter with Mr. Fuchs Mr.
Jackson Bald that the testimony regarding
Mr. Fuchs had been drawn From him in
the cross-examination at the trial.
•1 would have liked to avoid testifying
in that case if 1 could have done so." said
Mr. Jackson, '"but I was under bond to go
down there, and. of course, i bad to tell
what I knew In response to questions that
were put to me."
lii regard to the charge made by Mr.
Fuchs that Mr Jackson spends sis months
