He believes in the doctrine, but his experience (luring his first term in the Senate, with a proposed new charter for Buffalo, have caused him to look on that plank In the platform with more cynicism than he himself could nave believed he possessed six months ago. "Fourteen thousand of the leading citizens of Buffalo, without regard to party," he said to-day, "have signed a petition asking for a fair chance for this new charter. All they want is that It be submitted to he people of BulTalo for approval.

If It Is approved, then let It become law. But because Mr. Murphy does not like the Idea, these fourteen thousand signers arc not tu be glvou the small boon they request. Manifest Interest in Proposition. "A trainload of men came down from Buffalo for this charter.

They brought with them delegations from twenty-six smaller cities In the state which would like to see Buffalo try out the system of elective commission government contained in the bill. This trainload brought with them the Indorsement of every civic association in the City of Buffalo. That Is most extraordinary, to secure the Indorsement of all classes of citizens for a measure of such Importance. They were given 'a day in and that was all. A deaf ear was turned to their requests.

I do not suppose that the charter has any chance at the hands of this Legislature. But It will come througn soon, for the day is coming whep such a will have to be passed.

It is being framed up In secret by members of a committee and representatives of the citv administration. It is being put together in the month of June, when the Legislature should have adjourned a month or more ago. The mere report of lu proposed provisions has brought down a storm of protests on the heads of members of the Legislature.

have received scores of letters against Its provisions, containing definite protests. And ytt. they say, that charter for the City of New York is to pass. And the people of the City of New York are not to be allowed to vote on It. Not even the Board of Aldermen or anybody in the rltv will be able to improve or disapprove of It, effectively.

And they call that 'home rule!" No Opposition in Buffalo. Tin Largest Millinery Store in America ii '4 MYRTLE AVE. AND BRIDGE ST. "Not one letter, according to Senator i READY TO SUE TRIANGLE CO. Abraham Walker Appointed Guardian for Child Injured at Fire.

The appointment was made by Justice Cohalan In the Supreme Court upon the submission by Abraham Oberatein, counsel for the father, of the latter's petition. The amount of the money to be sued for ia not slated, but the claim Is made that by reason of the Triangle Shirtwaist Company not having proper exits and that the doors, windows, shutters and Ore escapes and appurtenances were insufficient In number and were so placed and maintained as to not permit of free passage, tho child was seriously Injured.
