MRS. MOL|-
N[UX' S DENIAL

Since the terrible tragedy eliminating
in the death of Mrs. Adams, and through
out the inexpressibly painful scenes that
duty to bear in silence the cruel attacks
that have been made upon me in sthe
newspapers. l have made no answer to
these attacks, nor have | made any effort
to set myself right before the world,
under the advice of the counsel for my
husband, who has been subjected to this
infamous and unfounded charge, and
whose interests are, of course, next to my
heart
But the statements in the newspapers
of today, charging me, by implication.
with having visited hotel in. Jersey City
with Mr.. Barnet, are so grossly and afro
ciously false that I feel, in justice to
myself, my husband and my friends, that
1 must now make some statement.
I may say, in beginning, that the cruel
SANDER uttered by the District At
torney in his address to the Coroner S
jury, is, I believe, largely responsible
for the subsequent attacks upon me.
His official position gave his statements
weight that they did not deserve. The
public has been slow to believe that a
sworn public officer could, without a
shadow of proof vilify and slander the
reputation of woman. But this was
done by the District Attorney, and have
suffered in consequence.
On the occasion to which the District
Attorney referred in making his SANDER
Gus accusations against me I was on a
yachting trip, chaperoned by my married
sister, and the testimony before the
Coroner failed to show single instance
of improperly or indiscretion on my
part, as, indeed, there was no such in
stance.
During the life time of my parents l
lived with them, as I testified before the
Coroner, and all my oher places of resi-
dence were also teSt1ned TO Dy me. MUCH
of the time 1 lived with my married sis
ters, and always visited them and was
visited by them.
There has never been any mystery about
my life or movements, nor has there been
anything in my life different from that OF
any other self-respecting woman
My acquaintance with Mr.. Barnet was
through the introduction of Mr.. Molineu2z
and my associations with him were mere
ly those of friendship. was never IN
Jersey City in my life, except in passing
through to take a train.
At the time stated in the newspapers
when Mr. Barnet first visited the hotel,
May, 1897, had never met him.
This sander is as baseless as the many
others which have been published con-
cerning me.
In simple justice to myself. my family
and my friends l ask the public press to
refrain from printing such wicked aceu-
sations, which the slightest investigation
would show TO be unfounded

fifteen cents per yard are sample items

Fully realizing that the character OF
public bodies should not be lightly as
sailed, this grand inquest would give
expression to the belief that the re-
fusal or neglect to disestablish the exist
ing rotten system is due to a desire on
the part of certain Freeholders to par
ticipate in the proceeds of the robberies
which they have thus helped to legalize
Stories have come to the ears of this
Grand Jury clearly indicating guilty par
ticipation some of which stories have
been investigated, and while we have no
reasonable doubt that guilt exists we
have found ourselves unable to secure
evidence sufficient to indict. We desire
not to be understood as comprehendlng
the entire governing body in our de-
nunciation There are many members
whom we believe to be honest and con-
scientious in the performance of their
duties, but the neglect, the heedlessness
and the cupidity, augmented by the devil
ish ingenuity and cunning with which
they are surrounded, appears to have
effectually precluded them from effecting
a substantial betterment
We deplore the fact that the fair name
of our county should be thus drawn
through the mire, but sense of our pub
lie duty demands that this be done in or
der that good may result. We decline to
be governed by that sentiment which has
too often asserted itself in the past, and
which would gloss over official rottenness
in the hope that better conditions would
prevail and with fear that a revelation OF
the truth might prove too damaging to
the community; and now that the result
of our findings has been made known we
look to the citizens of this county for the
institution of such remedial action as will
forever prevent recurrence.
That the fault is one of system and not
of party, of individuals representing
themselves and not specially representing
political body is evidenced by the fact
that the system now existing existed last
year and for years previous, and that
political changes produced no betterment.
The unwieldy character of the Board
and the fact that its ridiculously large
membership minimizes responsibility are
potent factors. We suggest that legisla-.
ton be secured that will reduce this
Board to membership of five, and that
governing officer or director, vested
with veto power which cannot be over
ridden, be selected to preside over such
body. Then, if matters go wrong, the
people of the entire county have defin-
able object to reckon with.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFoRNIA FIa SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known TO be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste aud acceptable to the system. II
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and feyers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance. and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make 1t the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste. but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants. by a method

of stated size. At the bottom of the
stone he wished to have the words,

room for the words, but the bereaved wild
