C-ounterfeiter BrockEay Denounces
His ssPaI', Bradford.

His opal Bradford.
Ex-Judge William Hoffman and his as
sociate, William G. Guild of Newark, deter
mined at the conference held Thursday with
William E. Brockway, the noted counter
feiter, to make the legal contest in Brock
WAYS case, one of the celebrated cases tried
in this State.
Brockway seems to be well provided for,
in a financial way, and he is known to have
said be would expend $4,000 to prevent his
return to State prison. He is now seventy
three years old, and very reasonably objects
to any more penal service for there is thirty
years suspended sentence over hanging his
grey hairs.
Wednesday next United States Commits
sioner Isaac Romano will listen to an appli-
cation by the lawyers for a reduction of bail
which has been fixed at $4,000. The i'm
preston is general that no reduction will be
made and that Broekway will have to re-
main in jail until his case. is reached by the
Federal Courts.
While the lawyers are doing all they can
to keep Brockway out of Jail, Chief Hazen
of the Federal Secret Service is using every
endeavor possible to keep him there. He
will probably be able to produce DR.. O.. Z.
Bradford of No. sd Third avenue, New
York, who is charged by Brockway with be-
ing the chief of the notorious gang the gov
eminent ran down. DR.. Bradford succeeded
in escaping arrest, but when Chief Hazen
was interviewed by a reporter about the
matter he declined to say anything further
than that he could not then talk about the
case.
Brockway does not hesitate to denounce
Bradford. In an interview he said: II was
put in a very bad condition by DR.. Bradford
and | never had any chance to make a dollar
out Of his game.n

Philanthropie Movement
Subscriptions Received.

To the Editor of 1.-THE Jersey City
News":-
The trying August weather is telling
upon the poor boys. In such heat they
cannot, with comfort, remain in their
homes, for they are "hot houses" and
on the streets they find dust and dirt.
Their bodies become easily soiled as
we'll as their clothes. They AVE found
out the blessings of the soa shampoo in
the Peoples Palace and the cooling
plunges in the swimming tank.
Here they come daily. In crowds they
come and go in almost a continuous line,
and the baths are taxed to their utmost
capacity. If the baths covered an acre
they would be full of the class whom
we desire to help.
The projectors of the Peoples Palace
are glad to have the opportunity of Offer
ing such a comfort and blessing to the
poor, as they arc now doing in this
philanthropic movement.
Up to date the contributions have not
amounted to enough to cover the ex-
pense of a nickel a bath. The cause ap-
peals to all and we hope the donations
will come in and enable the work to go
forward.
The baths given during The week end
ing Tuesday, August 9, were LOIS, and
the total number to date is 1906, and
the weekly average is about one thou
sand.
The following offerings came to hand
since last weeks report all of which
are received by the Board of Managers

tried to kick her. She had a cane which
she laid on his person and soundly
trounced him, and drove him from the

Philip Michel, who conducted a bakery
ON Ocean avenue, between Linden and
Danforth avenues, Greenyille, made a
rather hurried departure from town at
three o'clock yesterday morning, and
many Greenville business men with
whom Michel had running accounts, are
anxious to learn his whereabouts.
The day preceding, Michel sold his
business, and his successor is now in
possession of the store. Michel, it is al
legged, left in the early morning, so that
he would escape a settlement of ac-
counts.
