ROSS GETS His LEASE
Tells Riparian Board His Big Sugar
Refinery Is Not a Mvzh.

Mr.. George Ross, of Philadelphia, who
represents the syndicate that recently OBJ
taine da grant from the Riparian Com
missioners for the avowed purpose of
erecting sugar refinery near Fort Lee.
called at the office of the Commissioners
this morning. paid the $1,000 required and
got his lease. The Board conceived the
idea some time ago that some one was
fooling the Commissioners and that the
grant was being obtained for speculative
purposes. Mr.. Ross said that such was
not the case. He represented company
which was in dead earnest and that the
contract for the piling had been given out
and work would be commenced next
week. The company, he said. was conn
posed of merchants who would take and
dispose of the entire output of the pro-
posed refinery.

NATURALIZATION OVER.
One Thousand Applicanst
Must Wait Until After
Election.

The work of naturalization ceased at
the Court House today with over one
thousand applications still to be acted
upon. One thousand would-be citizens
will consequently be deprived of the OPP
portunity of becoming citizens until after
election. It is true that Judge Blair ex-
amined all who put in an appearance be-
fore him when he, was sitting for the pur-
pose, but the sessions have been 80 in-
frequent and so irregular that a large
number Of applicants have gone away dis
gusted after trying necessarily to become
naturalized. Even those who were for
tunate enough to go through the examin-
their eligibility.
or the eighty-two who applied for
citizenship yesterday Judge Blair decided
that but forty two knew enough to be-
come citizens while thirty-nine were told
to come again after election.
Only ls9 applicants have been granted
naturalization papers since the opening
of the September term, remarkably
small number considering the Importance
Of the coming election.
A comparison with preceding naturaliza-
ton mills shows the small amount of
work done by Judge Blair. In the two.
years and ten months Of his term Of office
but 217S persons have been made citizens
while in but one September term when
lay judges were on the bench and attend-
ed to the work Of naturalization 1850 for
eigners were made American citizens. No
comparison with the work in the natur-s
alizatioh line done by Judge Hudspeth
while alone on the bench can be made
for the reason that it was his practice to
examine all applicants who put in an APP
pearance before each day. session of
court The result Of this system was
that when the thirty days prohibition.
period began there were comparatively
few waiting applicants.
Last year when Judge Blair began to
conduct the examinations at his pleasure
and at very infrequent intervals. over
1,2OO applicants were still on file when
the prohibitory period began.
Judge Blair fixed Fridays. this year,
for the examinations, but, as the Court
held but few sessions on Friday, the ap-
plicants usually had trip to the Court
House for nothing.

Mansfield, Ohio, February linear
Mckay, a hamlet in Ashland couny,
about midnight, six masked robbers
burst into the residence of John Dun
can, a wealthy farmer, bound and
gagged Mr.. Duncan and the four other
members of the family, ransacked the
house and demanded from the farmer
that he disclose to them where his
money and other valuables were Sc
GREETED, and on, his refusing to do so
they applied matches to his feet, tor
tuing him as well as the others, until
the money was disclosed. The thieves
evidently knew that Mr.. Duncan had
considerable money at home, as he was
suspicious of banks. They secured
$780, four watches and other valuables,
after which they left, leaving their
victims till helpless. They stole a
team of horses and bob sled and made
their escape.

Mrs. MaybricIx to BE Freed.

Chicago, February 11.-A special
cablegrom from London to the Record
says: A well authenticated report
reaches the Record correspondent to-
night to the effect that Florence T.
Maybrick will be released from prison
tomorrow (Monday). At the United
States embassy nothing is known about
the matter and Ambassador Choate,
when seen at his residence today, de-
cined either to deny or confirm the ru-
NOR. Ever since Charles Thompson
Ritche, the new home secretary, came
into office last November, efforts to
secure the release of Mrs. Maybrick
have been active and have continued
up to within few days ago. The eff
forts of Mr. Choate, although made in
formally, have been unceasing. When
Mrs. Maybrick was allowed the privi-
lege of seeing her New York lawyer
last summer, that gentleman told the
Record correspondent that the chances
for his clients release were more fay-
orahle than they had been during her
twelve years incarceration,
The authorities conyensant with the
attempts TO secure the famous prison
er's freedom assert that If at last she
is to get her liberty it may be regarded
as due to the influence of King Ed
ward and may be interpreted as a
token OF appreciation of American sym
pathy over the death OF Queen Vie
togia.
