Members of the Hapgood Committee and men in touch with the general city can't for the life of them tell today what William Hearst is going to do next and will do SO far as the city Randolph, situation is concerned. John Purroy Mitchel, Norman Hapgood and others spent the morning in conferences, the object of which was to whip the Independence League leaders into line for George McAneny and W. A. Prendergast. Mitchel telegraphed to Hearst and this afternoon was awaiting a reply.

The nomination of Mitchel by the Hapgood leaders re was conditional upon the general belief that if Hearst were given Mitchel he would support the remainder of the ticket, Consternation hit the Hapgood people when they learned today that Hearst had come out against the ticket, The Gaynor men put It up to Mitcheel today to withdraw because of the strength the Mayor has with the independent voters of the community, "If Gaynor can go into the Republicau primaries and get more votes than I do, will withdraw. That is the only condition," the Collector of the Port is said to have replied, The Hearst puzzle had everyone guessing. The politicians can't see what Hearst can do, He can't endorse McCall, for McCall put through the subway contract that Hearst dubbed Iniquitous, He can't support Gaynor, in view of his attitude toward the Mayor for the last two years. He won't support Mitchel's ticket, he says. He can't head a ticket without running against Mitchel, who is his own choice.

All that he can do is to be against every ticket in the fleld except Mitchel personally or to rename Mitchel at the head of a ticket made up of Hearst men. While no definite word came from the Gaynor camp today it was stated that it is the plan of the Mayor, if he runs independently to designate the Fusion borough presidents as well as McAneny and Prendergast. The suggestion was thrown apparently to add to the general turmoil that Governor Sulzer was considering a city ticket to be devoted to the direct primary idea and to generally opposing Tammany Hall. There was no doubht, however, that the big feature of the day was the efforts being made to hold the Independence League leaders into line for the Fusion ticket. Hearst will be told, by telegraph, that the leaders of the Hapgood movement had been informed their action would meet with his approval and that his support had practically been promised them by Hearst leaders on the ground.

What the reply of the newspaper proprietor will be, no one seems to care to try to guess. It is felt, though, that Hearst has taken a step which is a mighty bad thing for Fusion. HEARST'S ATTACK. Although the statement of William Randolph Hearst on the political situation, embodied in a telegram sent yesterday to the Independence party leaders, attracted a good deal of attention from the Democratic candidates and leaders today, none of them would discuss it for publication. Hearst, who is in Californina, came out strongly against William A.

Prendergast and George McAneny, the Fusion nominees for Controller and President of the Board of Aldermen, and practically declared that he would repudiate the party's action if it supported them. "Tell the Independence party leaders," he wired to William J. Taylor, chairman of the Independence League City Committee, "that I cannot presume to dictate the party policy, but personally I cannot support proven political traitors, "I consider McAneny and Prendergast fully as false as Gaynor, only less clever and more cowardly, "I could not support Gaynor and I cannot support MeAneny or Pendergast for the simple reason that they secured their election by promises to protect the people in the possession of their publio property and then all three of them abandoned their solemn pledges and surrendered themselves and the publio Interests to the privilege-geeking and franchisestealing corporations, the Independence party becomes an accomplice in this treachery and rasbribe of a few offices; if it abandons its cality," he continued, "merely for the prinoiples of publio ownership and indorses publio plunderers merely for a share of the plunder, it becomes no better than the Progressive party, which operates as the political branch of Morgan on a percentage basis, "There is need for an honest, sineere, radical party in New Yorks and throughout this nation, intend to support one wherever I find one and to create one wherever there is none," DOG MAY ENTER YELLOWSTONE President Wilson Breaks Rule of Interior Department, Farsane, August 85-A Kansas girl and her pet dog, with the assistance of President Wilson, pave broken down the strict ruie against dogs being permitted in Yellowstone, National Park, Miss Ethel Probst, of Parsons, today received an announcement from the partment of Interior, that her request to take her dog.

JESSE FULLER, MAY WITHDRAW FOR DIKE Republican leaders and some of County Judge Dike's personal friends have been at work for several days trying to persuade Jesse Fuller, to withdraw from the Bull Moose County ticket as a candidate for county judge to make room for Judge Dike, who was designated by the Republicans and thrown out by the Progressives in spite of the contrary recommendations of the Hapgood Committee. Such a proposition, it is known, has been considered by Mr. Fuller, although refused to discuss it today.

His friends said that he would make his decision after the Democratic County Designating Committee meets tonight. It was understood among them that if he was named on the Democratic ticket then, he would stick, and that it his name: did not go through that committee he would withdraw in favor of Dike. Some of the Republicans at first talked of a trade by which Fuller was to give way for Dike, and Frank S. Senior, Republican candidate for Coroner, give way for Dr. Thurston H.

Dexter, the one Pro-, gressive Coroner who failed to get the Republican indorsement. This deal was nailed by Republican Executive Chairman Jacob Livingston. Senior comes from hie district, "Jake" let it be known emphatically that he wouldn't stand for any such idea. The next move of the Dike forces was to persuade Fuller to get out anyhow on the ground of personal friendship for Dike and because he (Fuller) had been an advocate of the indorsing of both Dike and Fawcett by the Progressives. Fuller was on the point of getting off the ticket when he was told by other Progressive leaders that he stood a good chance of getting the Democratic ment and persuaded by them that he had better stick: if he could get this, The plan to withdraw Fuller has not been put up to Woodruff, the Bull Moose County leader.

14. TRIED TWO THEFTS LANDS IN JAIL Youth Caught After Lively Chase In Which Crowd Joins. POLICEMAN USES REVOLVER. Fires Shot in Air Before Kappelmeier Is Finally Ar rested. Two daring jobs were turned off today by an 18-year-old youth, 60 the police say, who has only been out of the New York Reformatory since April 18, last, on parole.

The first, that of snatching a trayful of jewelry, was successful, and the other, tapping a till, resulted in his arrest. The youth is now locked up, without bail, on charges of burglary, assault and attempted robbery. He sald he was George Kappelmeier, 18 years old, of 300 Alabama avenue, but aside from that had nothing to say about himself. At 11:30 o'clock this morning, accordto the police, Kappelmeier sauntered into the jewelry store of Mrs. Esther ter, at 1615 Fulton street, and, while her back was turned, snatched a tray containing jewelry valued at about $30.

There was a bell on the, door, but it was out of order, and so he made a quick "getaway," without being detected. Shortly afterward he went into the candy and cigar store of Henry Mason, at 1517 Fulton street, and attempted to rob the till. On July 4 last, Mason was robbed of $50, and since then he has had a buzzer connected with his till. While he was in the back room the buzzer went off, and rushing out into the store Mason beheld Kappelmeier scooping up the coins. He got between the youth and the door and yelled loudly for help, and when Kappelmeier attempted to dash to the street a lively fight ensued.

The youth put up a stiff argument, and bowling Mason over darted through the door. He ran up Fulton street to Throop avenue, with a big crowd in his wake, turnued into Kingston avenue and headed for Herkimer street. Policeman Leonard Kessinger of the Gates avenue station attracted by the cries of "Stop thief!" joined in the chase. He yelled to the fleeing youth to stop, and when Kappelmener kept on the policeman drew his volver and fired a shot in the air. As DA ran, Kappelmeirer took jewelry, later identified by Mrs.

Soeter as that stolen from her store, from his pocket, and threw it into the street. Kessinger finally grabed his man and landed him in the station house after lively tussle. He had thrown all of the jewelry away but they found on the prisoner parole papers showing that he had been released from the New York Reformatory last April. He was later arraigned in the Gates avenue police court and held without bail. FRED MORDICK DEAD.
