The heavy going was held responsible for
som^ of the form reversals.
1 CL Hildreth started two horses—Mont
gomery in the fifth race and Hampton
Court in the sixth— that were plunged on
to make up for a bad day, but both failed
in dismal fashion. A.<= one disgruntled
player said. "Mcntpomery ran like a coach
horse." He was heavily backed from Rto 5
to even money, but in spite of all that
Shilling could do he could not keep up at
any part' of the journey, and finished last
in a three-horse field, beaten fifteen or
twenty lengths.
Hampton Court, also heavily played,
proved an ma greater disappointment. He
showed tittle or bo i '»< 'i and finished out
side the money, beaten more than twenty
lengths by High Private which made a
show of Ms Held at the. lucrative price of
12 to 1. and pom» ten or twelve lengths De
hind Bob R-, which ran thirfl.
The Welkin, ranked by many as the best
; jumper of the Mason, suffered from a bad
ride and ran second to Jesuit in the Mount
■/•shfngtoß Steeplechase. Jesuit blundered
at the '?.-' jump and almost went down,
but Kermath picked him up cleverly and
' the hor?*» had such ■ commanding lead at
the time that he won by five or six lengths.
Davidson was called before the stewards
and reprimanded for hi? 111 judged work.
R. F. Carman, whose horses have been
running so consistently, had a bad day. as
Question Mark and Horizon, both heavily

and third races, respectively. Horizon ran
third in the six-furlong dash for two-year

PHILIPPINE PROBLEMS
Discussed iiy Speakers at Mo
honk Conference.
VIEWS OF BiSHOP BRENT
Taft's Administration in Islands
Praised Conservation of
Resources Urged.
Mohonk. Lake. N. V.. Oct. CO.-The Philip
pines and the problems which confront the
United States government there occupied
the attention of the Mohonk Conference to
day. Charles H. Brent. Bishop of the
Philippines, spoke in part as follow:
The moment ha.= come when the manifest
duty of the Philippine government is to
place industrial matters in the forefront or
its thoughts. Political development has
been such as no longer to need the amount
of attention hitherto accorded. The Philip
pines must always be an agricultural coun
try, dependent on the industry of the in
habitants. Their industrial efficiency will
largely determine their political efficiency.
The work of the schools has on the whole
been commendable, lackinZ. however. in
respect of industrial and technical training.
This defect Is being remedied. Provision was
also made for pending promising students
to America. The results have not been
such as to justify continuance. This brings
up an important principle. Experience
would appear to have proved that a person
should be educated in his own country in
indisenous institutions of learning. Post
graduate work in a foreign country is val
uable, but not secondary or university
training, which should be provided at home.
■William B. Wash burn, formerly director
of Civil Service in the Philippines, reviewed
the progress made in the islands under
American administration. "Among the
world's great men in colonial administra
tion." he said, "is that man whose srreat
ability, sense of justice and genial person
ality won the confidence and support of the
Filipino people, William Howard Taft,
President of the T'nited States."
Dr. David P. Barrows, formerly Director
of Education of the Philippines:, spoke on
the conservation policy in the Islands. "The
uncontrolled exploitation of the economic
resources of the Philippines by foreigners
at the present time," he said, "mesas, that
the native people themselves will be per
manently *hut off from access to the,
sources of wealth of their native, land. The
policy of conservation Insists upon the safe
guarding of the public domain by Con
gressional lecislation. It advocates the in
terests of the less favored classes among
the Filipinos."
ACCOUNTANTS AT DINNER
Twenty-third Annual Meeting of
American Association Ends.
The American Association of Public Ac
countant? held its annual dinner last night
in the north hallroom'-of the Hotel Astor.
Three hundred and fifty members, many of
them with their wives, were present. The
dinner marked the close of the twenty-third
annual meeting. Henry It M. Cook was
the toastmaster. "A Quaker's Visit en
Father Knickerbocker" was read in verse
by President James W. Fernley of the
Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public
Accountants.
John Greene, a member of the Board of
Education and financial editor of Brad
streefs, discussed the position of the ac
countant in the business world. He said:
"He is not a mere clerk, but a critic of
figures, who applies the acid test. He of
ficiates at the birth of all new ventures. At
his word men do or do not embark upon
great enterprises. For combinations he ap
portions the. profits and burdens of the
business."
G^orsre A. Post, president of the Rallwav
Business Men's Association, made a humor
ous talk on "Figures of Speech." in the
uourse of which he paid'
"To one- somewhat given to embonpoint it
is a little embarrassing to face a crowd like
this, all of whom are so very much stuck
on their own figures."
NAMES SOME HONEST MEN
"Many in Queens," Witness Says
at Gresser Hearing.
There are several honest men in Queens.
This fact developed In the testimony of
William L. Woodill at the hearing yester
day before Commissioner Samuel H. Ord
way, who is investigating the charges
against Borough President Lawrence Gres
sor.
"What Is your interest in these charges?"
asked Mr. Mellon.
"1 am interested as a taxpayer."
"Not as a politician?"
"No; and if you want me to I'll tell you
my Interest. When Mr. Gresser was a can
didate last fall he gave out that he was the
only honest man in Queens and that he
was a poor man, with a mortgage of fl.ooo
on his bouse. I thought his statement a
disgrace to Queens. There are lots of hon
est men in Queens. Gresser set himself up
on a pinnacle all alone."
"Mr. Cassidy is honest?" queried Mr.
MeHen.
"Yes." responded the witness.
"And Mr. Casaidy Is also on a pinnacle?"
"Yes." was the answer.
"And you are an honest man. too?"
"Yes: I can frankly say that I am
"I shall concede," said Commissioner
Ordway, "that the persons taking part In
pressing these charges are not warm po
litical or warm personal friends of Mr.
Gresser."

ARMY AND NAVY NOTES
Department Commanders Re
sponsible for Efficiency of Troops
[From The Tribune Bureau.]
Washington. October 20.
ORDER WILL. STIR ARMY -The army
will be again stirred to its depths on the
appearance within a few days of an im
portant general order, which specifically.
on the recommendation of General Leonard
Wood, chief of staff, and by direction of
the Secretary of War. will hereafter hold
division and department commanders re
sponsible for the efficiency of troops sta
tioned in their commands. These officers
are directed to make administrative routine
secondary to field fitness, and to that end
the inspections which have been conducted
by department commanders under existing
regulations will no longer be the perfunc
tory affairs which they have been consid
ered. The department commanders will ar
range the details of their work so as to
have protracted sojourns at the posts vis
ited by them. It is felt that only by pro
longed and intimate association with the
pei sonnel of each post may they assure
themselves or conditions which prevail and
determine the proper corrective measures
to improve efficiency when it falls below
the standard. To this end. also, official
correspondence will be reduced to the mini
mum. Plans have been made to do away
with the paper work.

GEBHARDT CONFESSION IN
Prisoner's Counsel Then Refuses
to Call Witnesses.
When the G*bharrlt trial was resumed
yesterday in the little courtroom at River
head a csowd of curious men and women
was present to see the prisoner. The prin
cipal feature of interest was the reading
of the allesred confession by Gebhardt. in
which he is » aid to have described how he
killed Anna Luther In April. EMU It was
known that counsel for Gebhardt would
make a determined fight against the ad
mission of the alleged confession, on the
ground that, if such a document were m
existence. It was obtained from the prisoner
while he was under arrest and not repre
sented by counsel. It was also asserted
that the confession was obtained tinder
duress, with only police officers and other
officials present.
District Attorney Farman. who Is con
ducting the prosecution, said Gebhardt
made the statements attributed to him vol
untarily and that it wa3 the state ' 3 strong
est bit of evidence. Coroner Savage, of
Suffolk County, who had charge of the case?
directly following the finding- of the body
of Anna Luther, introduced th« confession.
The Coroner said that G«bhardt told him
that while he and Anna Luther were walk
ing through a clump of woods near Isllp
on April 8. 1907. they had a quarrel about
money matter and that he then told her
he already had a wife and family living in
Astoria and was going back to them.
Anna begged him not to desert her and
cried, and Rung her arms about MS neck
and kissed him. Gebhardt said that while
the woman had her arms around him he
shot her twice in the head ami then walked
away.
Counsel for Gebhardt rested his case and
refused to call witnesses.
WILLIAMSBURG__FLOODED
High Tide and Rain Imprison
Hundreds at Homes.
The worst flood tnat the wallaoout sec
tion of U'ilhamshursr has had si five years
occurred early yesterday morning, durtns;
the storm, when the neighborhood of Har
rison avenue anJ Wallabout street was
under water to a depth In some places or
four feet. Hundreds of families were Kept
prisoners In tr<elr homes for noiirs. So
high was the water in some places that It
rose over dM floors and compelled stor--
Keopers and their families to go to the sec
ond story.
The tide backed lbs water In '*•» servers
and lifted th» manhol* covers and brought
forth geysers which t«rrin-d th» populace.
Enterprisinar boys established I ferry ser
vice with rafts, and raked In many nlclcels
by going on errands for imprisoned rouse
holders. Car service was delayed until 10
o'clock in the forenoon.
Much damage was dor- to the founda
tions of buildings.
The several hours of rainfall did not help
th- water famine in WwSeeSMStS* County.
The rain simply disappeared In 'he dry
soil, and did not add in th* least to the
water supply. Practically all the reservoirs
of small water companies are dry. and tne.
only water available in WestSßHsßssr
County is that owned by the city of New
York.

Class ami many others had narrow escapes.
The 'lead are Simon Tillson and Jobn

The two men were at work in what is
known as the coming works, and it la be
lieved that a particle of foreign substance

shoes cam* in contact with the mixture
and so caused the explosion. The mill. a
wooden one story shack, far removed from
the others buildings, was levelled and the
timber hurled in all directions.
The force gathered up stones from th«
roadway and hurled them for a consider
able distance. John Williams and Henry
