GROUSE RECEIVER AGAIN.
He Takes Thurston's Place in the
Newark Chemical Company.

Vice-Chancellor Emery yesterday ap-
pointed Otto Grouse receiver of the insol-
vent Newark Chemical Company, to sue
ceed the late Charles B. Thurston, who
died in June, 1899. The corporation was
adjudged insolvent in November, 1898, as
the result of proceedings brought by the
David Ripley & Sons Timber and Lumber
Company, and Mr.. Thurston was made
receiver by the late Vice-Chancellor Van
Fleet. Before he was able to wind up the
affairs of the company Mr.. Thurston died,
his widow Mrs. Linda A. Thurston, be-
coming his executrix,
The present action for the appointment
of a new receiver was brought by r. L..
Lawrence on behalf of Hugo G. Hauser,
a creditor holding preferred claims aggre-
eating 81, 1,5S3.70. 1t was asserted by coun-
sci for the petitioner that at the time of
his death Mr. Thurston has certain assets
of the company in his possession of which
no accounting has since been made.
1t is admitted by Mrs. Thurston that her
husband had these assets at the time of
his death and that they are now in bank
Mrs. Thurston, however, claims that she
should be recompensed for her husband s
expenditures in administration of the COM
pany's affairs. That point is left to the
new receiver to settle.

A big kick was registered by the two
hundred employees of the West Bergen
Steel Works, now part of the Crucible
Steel Company of America, on Saturday
last. when they were told that they
would receive no wages that day The
men could not understand the position
taken by the management.
Manager Jennings explained to the men
that hereafter one weeks wages would
always be held in reserve. Therefore no
money was paid, out last Saturday
This new rule went into effect last week
1t occasioned no end of dissatisfaction,
and for a time there were rumors of a
strike. Some of the men talked of going
out unless the money due them was paid
over. Others prevailed upon them to abide
by the existing rules and do nothing RASH
The steel works became a part of the
Crucible Steel Company of America last
July, but the new pay roll did not take
effect until November 10. This new trust
controls sixteen mills and has a capital
of s50,0O0,0O0. The main Offices are in
Pittsburg, where the pay rolls are sent
each week to be made up.
1t was said that there was some talk
of a reduction in wages when the con-
solidation took place, but this rumor was
denied. The old scale of wages will re-
main in effect

Pile Az a Starter.

Fourteen-year-old Sammy Douglas, who
is a negro as black as the proverbial ace
of spades. tired of his happy home at
No. A East Forty-fourth street, Bayonne,
Monday morning and decided to make his
own way in the world. He started his
new life with capital of s42, which he
stole from his brother Glasco, the latter
says.
Sammy came to Jersey City and his first
thought was of his personal appearance.
The clothes he wore were calculated to
withstand the ravages of the mud pie

gambling known as 'miggles." These
clothes would not do, of course, for one
who was about to face the world.

bought new outfit complete. Then he
went to the Dewey lodging house at No.

THE AUTOMOBILE SHOW.
Horseless Carriages Are Now on Ex-
hibition at the Grand Central Place

There was large and curious process
sion of automobiles through the streets
of New York Monday, when the business
of moving the motor mahines from Madi-
son Square Garden to the Grand Central
Palace, where the automobile show goes
on from November II to "a was in pro-
gress. Many of the motor vehicles made
the journey under their own head of
power, but some cautious makers employ
ed trucks hauled by horses and gave the
"self-moving carriages" a free ride Some
of the delivery wagons ran along Madi-
son avenue with a string of three or four
vehicles trailing behind on tow rope
Among the many novelties of the new
show is a liquid air machine capable of
fifty miles an hour and a steam truck
with a carrying capacity of fifty miles
an hour.
The Palace show is not to be a dull
duplicate of the Garden show. 1t will be
distinctly new 1t will afford room for
many manufacturers not represented at
the Garden, and they have reserved places
for vehicles that will be on view for the
first time. The exposition will be larger
and more complete than it's predecessor.
Its arrangement will be in marked con-
trast to last weeks exhibition, where the
principal exhibits were placed within the
track, thereby obscuring the view of the
moving vehicles to an extent. At the
Palace the track is the Central feature,
occupying the entire auditorium, and the
exhibits are distributed around the track.
wide aisle intervening. A clear view
of the entire track circuit is obtainable
from the two commodious balconies of the
auditorium. The space within the track
is reserved for exhibitions of expert ham
ding of automobiles

clude afternoon and evening concerts by
the famous Old Guard Band. All con-
tests will be arranged by and conducted
under the direction of committee of the
manufacturers exhibiting. The hall it.
self, occupying an entire city block, is
beautifully decorated and illuminated,
making the exposition a very attractive
spectacle.
