VERDON'S BOOMLET
His Friends Meet and Talk
Over His Chances.

Formal proceedings in the little Mayor
atty boom of Frederick Verdon, of Hobo
KEN were taken Monday night at meet
ing of a few of Mr.. Verdon's friends in his
office at Fourteenth and Hudson streets.
There has been a rumor afloat for the
past month that Mr.. Verdon was trying
to get up some sort of an independent
movement, the main object of which was
the booming of Mr.. Verdon for Mayor.
His chance of being elected is considered
hopeless and it is said that he himself
fully realizes this fact. But he says he
is going to revolutionize politics through
out the State nevertheless. At the meet
ing Monday night it was decided to hold a
State convention at Odd Fellows Hall,
Hoboken, next Monday night.
1t has been decided to prepare q State
ticket and also a local ticket for Hobo
ken, Jersey City, Bayonne Newark. Pat
erson Elizabeth and probably Trenton.
The Gubernatorial candidate will prob
ably be chosen from Paterson, where the
organizers hope to squeeze in some inde-
pendents for the local offices. AS yet the
movement has developed no sign of panis
IN the ranks of either party.

MRS. BRESCl MUST co.

Mayor Neuman of. Cliffside Park, Ber-
gen county, has informed Mrs. Bresci,
widow of the man who killed King Hum
bert, that it would be well if she moved
from the borough quickly. The Mayor
does not threaten her; he simply invites
her to get out. She has been conducting
a boarding house, which she started with
money supplied by anarchist associates OF
her husband
1t is probable she will accept the invita-
ton. Business reasons will dictate such a
step on her part. She opened the house
at the time a big glucose factory was
starting. There were few places where
the men could go, and her house Was
filed quickly.
Now these men are going away, the last
straw being the attempt to hold meet
ing of Anarchists there on last Sunday.
Mrs. Bresci cannot be forced to obey
the Mayors invitation, as she has done
nothing unlawful, but it is thought she
will find it best to go away.

CHEMICAL ANALYSIS.
Search Being Made for
Poison From Assassin's
Bullets.
A dispatch from Buffalo says

A dispatch from Buffalo says
The analysis of the parts of the yis-
cera of the late President Mckinley
through which the bullet of Assassin Czol-
gosz passed, together with the three bull
let's which remained in the anarchists
revolver, is being conducted by DR.. Her
bert M. Hill, the city chemist; DR.. H. G.
Matzinger, DIR. Harvey R. Gaylord and
DR.. Roswell Park, one of the surgeons
who attended the President.
The theory that the bullet was poisoned
has taken firm hold. District Attorney
Penney has enjoined silence upon the
physicians engaged in making the an
alysis, however, SO there has been no
official confirmation of the theory. DR..
Gaylord said
AS said in my report to the coroner
on the autopsy, gangrene was the cause
of death. The public may infer from this
what it likes. Gangrene is decay or a
rot, and is only caused by a matter for
eign to the system. There are number
of poisons which might cause gangrene
but 1 do not believe that, with the high
surgical and medical skill which was ex-
pended on the President, gangrene coula
have resulted unless some poison not ex-
pected had been introduced"
DIR. Hill is performing one analysis and
DIR. Gaylord another, so that there will
be corroborative evidence in court. 1t is
said that some mystery attaches to the
interruption of the autopsy after Drs
Park and McBurney left the ROOM 1t Il
hinted that discovery was made during
the post-morten examination of the Pres
dents body which will not be made public

PEsTALozzrS HOME
The Cradle of Much That Has Bless
ed Mankind

The original dwelling which Ptstalozzi
built in 1863 for the reception of his bride
was burned in 1885, says 'The Chautau-
quan,'' but the walls and roof were re-
stored so that the exterior of the present
building is substantially like it's original.
A new and stately dwelling, the exterior
of which is modelled somewhat after the
old, was begun by Pestalozzi, and finished
by his grandson. In 1891, by the death
of Professor Karl Pestalozzi, the family
became extinct, and the estate of Neu-
hof is now owned by an alien.
Although the original Pestalozzi resi-
dence is now but storehouse for wagons
and farm implements, yet as the cradle
of so much that has blessed mankind, it
must ever, so long as one stone remains
! upon another, be of sacred interest to all
lovers of the human race. for many So
called nineteenth century reforms had
their birth within it's walls. Here, for in
stance, Pestalozzi planted the seed from
which has grown the social settlement
idea of today when, as he says he .'lived
/ with beggars in ordtr to teach beggars
how to live like men," Here Pestalozzi
! first defined and demonstrated education
to be the awakening Of the soul, through
process Oh OrSduiU ueVeiopmeut, Idtucr
| than the mere receiving and boarding of
/ information. Here the modern system OF
| instruction by means of object lessons
| Observation-Disclosures Unterricht''-had its
| first trials and triumphs. And here in his
| famous classic Leonard and Gertrude'
| (which, by the way, was written between
! the lines in an old account book for lack
of means to buy stationery, Pestalozzi
struck the initial blow at the liquor sa-
loon as an Institution. branding it the
prime evil, the underlying cause of the
degeneracy of the people and Of the low
/ moral tone of domestic life. Truly deso-
late. forgotten Neuholf. with its hallow-
! ed associations and traditions, deserves to
! be enshrined in the hearts OF all lovers
| Of humanity, and should be cherished by
! the Swiss people as one Of their proudest
| possessions.

ANARCHISTS EXPELLED


Two alleged Anarchists, a man and a
woman, were expelled from Union Hill
yesterday, being escorted beyond the town
limits by police. The woman was Mrs.
Quintevalli, wife of the alleged cocoon
sprator with Bresci. the slayer of King
Humbert. The man was Charles MARITIME
of No. 230 Madison street, West Hoboken.
The pair were arrested on the complaint
of Hugh Mullins, of No. 255 Clinton stree
West Hoboken. He said he was talking
with MARITIME and Mrs. Quintevalli in a
barroom in Spring street, about President
Mckinley, and was denouncing the as
sassin, when Montino said:
shut up or I'll do the same to you
that my friend Czolgosz did to McKin-
ley
When this utterance was repeated to
Recorder Henzel he told the pair they
must leave town at once. The police did
the rest.

HANNAH WINS AGAIN
Second Jury Gives Him 81, 500
Damage in Suit Against
Trolley Co.

For a second time jury in the SUI
preEle Court has awarded John Hannah,
of st. Paul's avenue, this city, a verdict
of $500 against the North Jersey Street
Railway Company. Several months ago.
the company appealed against a similar
verdict returned by a jury, and the upper
courts set the verdict aside upon the
ground that the amount of damages was
excessive and ordered the case to be re-
tried.
The suit was retired this morning be-
fore Justice Collins and jury in the Su-
preme Court. Counselor Warren Dixon
appeared for the plaintiff, VIII e Counselor
Marshall Van Wrinkle looked after the in
terests of the company. 1t was shown
that Hannah was injured in September
1899, while driving a hay wagon into
Bishops mule yard at Westervelt street.
The wagon was struck by a Bayonne car
and Hannah was thrown from his seat
and severely injured. He was taken to
the hospital and claims since the accident
he has been unable to work.
Counsel for the company did not deny
responsibility for the accident, but claim
ed that Hannan was not as badly injured
as he represented. He contended that the
jury could only award nominal damages
The jury could not view the case in the
same light and returned verdict of 81 $50
in favor of the plaintiff.
Counselor Van Wrinkle announced that
the company will again appeal the case
to the upper courts upon the grounds
that the verdict was against the weight
of evidence and was excessive

left in which the request could well be
denied, barring personal disability.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept 49, 1901
An alarm of fire was sounded soon after
midnight yesterday for an incendiary fire
at the barn of Henry Martin, on Lower
Schureman street. While the excitement
was at it's height Mrs. James Foley, who
lives a few doors from where the flames
started, heard some one trying to force
open a window at the rear of her house.
She obtained a, revolver, three open the
door and drew bead on the burglar,
who started to run. She fired and the
man yelled and staggered. He managed
to get over the back fence. Mrs. Foley
hurried to the fence, trying to get another
shot, but he had got behind some build
ings and escaped
1t is the theory of the police that the
burglar who tried to enter Mrs. Foley's g
house set the fire, hoping in the excite
ment to work undisturbed. Yesterday
morning blood stains were found on the
fence and on the grounds near where the
man jumped, showing Mrs. Foley wounded
him.

take part in them, and then the party
made their way down the long platform
and out on the street.
There was crowd in the station, and
most of them recognized him instantly
and saluted him. A path had to be made
for him through the waiting room. The

Packing Flowers.

When it is desirable to send gift of
cut flowers to an invalid or distant
friend through the mail, certain rules
must be remembered If they are to be
received in acceptable freshness and
beauty. 1t is one OF the most common
mistakes to send them wrapped in damp
ened cloths, In pasteboard boxes # you
desire to send roses, insert the cut stems
in raw potato, and the moisture will

BOARD OF TRADE ACTS.
Expresses Sorrow at tn
Assassination of Prt
dent Mckinley.

The Board of Trade at it's meeting last
night passed resolutions touching the as
sassination of President Mckinley Mr..
Joseph A. Dear presented them and they
were as follows:-
Resolved, That this Board expresses
its horror at the crime which plunged
the Nation into grief by the foul
assassination of President William
Mckinley.
We express our admiration for his
character as an eminent citizen and
faithful and conscientious official, as
an earnest and safe administrator of
the laws, a patriotic and sagacious
ruler and lover of peace and amity.
We tender to his devoted and faith
full wife our respectful and tender
sympathy in her bereavement.
Resolved, That as a token of re-
spect for his memory this Board now
adjourns
In offering these resolutions Mr.. Dear
feelingly spoke of Mr. McKinley's char
acter. He said
Whatever difference of opinion there
might be as to the policy of Mr.. McKin-
ley, his strongest political opponents were
united in testifying to his excellence as a
citizen, and had been unanimous in the
expression of their confidence in him as
wise, sagacious and patriotic President.
In these days, when 50 much folly and
falsehood were rife, respecting the benefit
of a warlike and aggressive national
policy, Mr.. Mckinley by his efforts to
promote treaties of peace and amity with
surrounding nations had thrown all his
influence in favor of the peaceful policy
which had been 50 beautifully outlined in
his last speech before his foul assassina-
stion.
'It was 11orrifying to think" continued
Mr.. Dear, that in this free land, where
the government was chosen and author
lied by the people and its officers from
the President down were the servants OF
the people, that such a crime could be
conceived and executed amid the approval
of any class, however small. 1t showed
that the class hatreds Of Europe haG
been transplanted to this country, ana
while legislation to deal severely with
such crimes might be necessary the cause
of them would disappear only as the spir-
it of justice and brotherhood, of which
Mr.. Mckinley had been so distinguished
an exponent, should spread throughout
the land
Mr.. Henry v. Condict, in supporting
the resolution, said that the assassin was
instigated to do the awful deed by a
licentious press. Laws for the suppress
sion of such newspapers should be en-
acted.
Mr.. Myron J. Furst condemned the yel-
low journal.
President S. c. Mount thought that the
governme mt officers ought to be pro-
tected.
