I saw It in his trunk again in 63d street. I knew the bottle because it had a nick In one side. I spoke about its being the same bottle and he laughed and said he wouldn't lose that bottle for a lot The last time I saw him was in the fall of 1504.

COLONEL CLOWRY RESIGNS President of Western Unicn Served Company 44 Years. T. N. VAIL SUCCEEDS HiM New Head Announces That There rw Head No Radical That There Will Be No Radical Change in Policy. Colonel Robert C Clowry resigned as president of the "Western Union Telegraph Company yesterday and Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Telephone and •sident of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, which a year ago ac quired practical control of the former cor poration through the purchase of the Gould holdings, was elected to succeed him. Colo nel dowry continue? as a. director and member of the executive committee of the Western Union. Another change in the management of the Western Union Company made by the board of directors yesterday was the elec tion of Newcomb Carlton, formerly vice president and general manager of the Brit ish Westingho.use Company, as vice-presi dent, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of George J. Gould at the an nual meeting last October. The retirement of Colonel Clowry from the presidency of the Western Union Telegraph Company had been expected in the financial district since the American Telephone and Tele graph Company bought into the property. Colonel Clowry wrote to Mr. Vail a week ago inclosing his resignation, to take effect on November 23, and requesting the latter to submit, it to the board on that date. In his letter to Mr. Vail he said he was glad to turn the work of managing: the company over to another President Vail, when asked yesterday if there was any other reason than that stated in his letter of resignation why Colonel Clowry had re signed as head of the company, said that there was none that he knew of. Mr. Vail said there would be no radical change in the policy of the company Colonel Clowry would not add anything to his formal letter of resignation, other than to say that he was the happiest man in New Tork now that his resignation had been accepted and he was at liberty to take a much needed rest. Theodore X. Vail, who new becomes pres ident of the Western Union Company, is a nephew of Alfred Vail, who was the friend, partner and supporter of £ F. B. Morse. the inventor of the telegraph. Alfred Vail was the practical man of the two; he seized upon the conception of Morse, made the in struments, invented numerous accessories so that the system would work, and was the first operator. Morse was at one end of the wire and Vail at the other when, in 1844, the first telegraph message, "What God hath wrought, ' was sent over the ire President Vail was horn in Carroll Coun ty, Ohio, in 1845. His family later moved to Morristown, x. J , and as a bey he worked in the local telegraph office there. He became a proficient operator, and in IBS he went West and obtained a position as telegraph operator with the Union Pa cific Railroad, which was then in process of construction. •In 1869. through the friendly offices of General Grenville M. Dodge, chief engineer of the Union Pacific, Mr. Vail obtained an appointment in the United States railway mail service, and seven y-jars later he ---as appointed super intendent of the entire service. . In IS7S Mr. Vail took hold of the tele phone, and in a striking- repetition devel oped the invention of Beil as his uncle had developed the invention of Morse forty years before Mr. Bell and his associates asked Mr. Vail to take the place of busi ness manager and builder of the telephone system. He resigned from th» government service and began work on the structure that stands to-day as the American Tele phone and Telegraph Company, with its associated Bell companies. Colonel Robert C Clowry the retiring president, has been head of the company since April 1, 1862 He first became connected with the company in the summer of 1566 when he was appointed district superin tendent of the Western Union lines in the Southwest. In December, ■-- he was an rued assistant genera! superintendent, with headquarters in Chicago, and in " May SSSO, he succeeded General Anson Stager as general superintendent of the territory west of the Mississippi. In October, ISSS, he was elected a director, member of the executive committee and vice-preside I c* the company, retailing his place as general superintendent ' Colonel Clowry is seventy-two years old He gained his military title in the Civil " 7 ar. which he entered as a. captain In 1563 Part of the time he was attached to the quartermaster's department and was in charge of the military telegraph in the Southwest TOVKINS HEADS DELEGATION.

I I Washington. Nov. 23.— The population 1 of New York State is 9.113,279. accord j ing to the official figures made public to ! dai* by E. Dana Durand. Director of the ! Census. This is a gain in the last dec j ade of 1.544.385. cr 25.4 per cent. In the 1 preceding decade the increase was 1, 271.041 or 21.2 per cent. i j New York easily retains its place as i the first state in the Union in popula j tion. On the basis of the present ratio [ of representation in the House of Repre .'. sentatives. 194,182, the Empire Stat ; would be entitled to forty-sevn Repre 1 sentatives. Under the apportionment of ten years ago New York State increased ■ its membership in the House from thirty '■ four to thirty- seven. ; The upstate increase in population in ■ the last decade did not keep pace with the increase in greater ;N>*v York.

' -while the gain for the entire state was ' I 25.4 per cent. The percentage of gain , for the state compares favorably. ho-wv e-er. with records in former decennial ■ census periods. This gain was greater in the last ten years than in any other r r. year period since ISSO. when the per 1 centage of increase was 27.5.

Ten years later New j York was in third place, Virginia and Pennsylvania being first and second, re spectively. In 1810 New York was in second place, Virginia holding its place j i? the nrst state. In IS2O New York j took the lead and has held it ever since j North Carolina, which was third in 1790. was in eighteenth place ten years ago. while Virginia, the first state from 1790 j to 1820, was in sixteenth place ten years ago.

New York City for the first time has ! become greater in point of population J r. ld all the remainder of the state. While this is the most striking feature of the figures, almost as remarkable is the rate of growth of the state Since 1 IST" !r! r has doubled in population This i increase la largeh- attributable to the growth of the cities, and is believed by the census officials to be due to the de velopment of manufacturing interests and to foreign immigration. With this increase in population will come a larger representation in the lower j branch of Congress, where New- York has thirty-seven members. The exact number of nncr^ r Representatives will be ten if the present ratio of ap portionment is retained by Congress j Should the ratio be increased, this num- | i» er would be cut down, but it Is con- J ceded that the state will have an in creased representation in Congress. >r the y. 113,27,9 persons in the state, 4 766,883 are m New York City and •i 3H6 396 outside the city, making the city 420.487 the greater in population.
