HILL SAYS IT'S TOO SOON.
He's Not Candidate for the Presi-
dentisl Nomination and is Not
Going on a Western Trip.

Albany, April 29.-David B. Hill
to-day gave out statement denying
the story that he expected to make a
political trip through the West and
South either this year or next. When
advised that an invitation was being
prepared in the State of Washington
requesting him to make a visit, he
replied that it would be impossible
and requested an abandonment of the
invitation.
Mr.. Hill added: "I will state fur
ther that 1 am not a candidate for the
Democratic Presidential nomination
in 1904. am neither seeking the
nomination nor expecting it. l re-
gard all suggestions of candidates at
this time as premature and inadvis-
able. No one can nowstell what can
or ought to be done in 1904
Meanwhile, Democratic efforts, in
my opinion, should be devoted to
strengthening our lines and obtaining
recruits for our cause, so that the
nomination of the party may become
something more than a mere empty
honor, and that the nominee may have
some chance of success. -

DEATH OF MRS.
MARY WHITAKER.
Wife of L. Q. c. Whitaker Dies
Unexpectedly at Her Home
ON Bank Street.

Mrs. Mary Whitaker, wife of Lucius
9. @. Whitaker, a messenger ON the
West Jersey and Seashore Railroad,
died Tuesday night at her home, cor
ner Bank and Myrtle Streets. Death
was entirely unexpected and unlocked
for.
Mrs. Whitaker had been i'll but a
week, being confined to her room
since last Tuesday. She was suffer-
ing from pleurisy. While her condi-
tion has been serious, it had not been
considered critical, and for day or
two it was thought by the members of
the family that she was improving.
The improvement last night seemed to
be considerably marked
Late in the evening the patient was
much worse, and died suddenly, the
heart failing from the disease.
Mrs. Whitaker was most delight
full woman, and every one who knew
her loved her sincerely She was gra-
cious, always kind and generous, and
made endearing friends of all whom
she met. She was sister of Mrs.
William ]. Moore, and has been mar
ried to Mr.. Whitaker for about thirty
years. Their home life was an ideal
one. There had never been any chill
dren in the family.
Mrs. Whitaker was a consistent,
faithful member of the Second Pres
byterian Church, and in that circle
she will be greatly missed
The announcement of the funeral
is made elsewhere.

PICKEREL SEASON
OPENS TO-DAY.
Anglers are After the Lively Fish
i'm the South JERSEY Ponds.

The pickerel and pike season opens
yesterday, and very many anglers are
out after the members of the finny
tribe.
Yesterday afternoon and last night
many persons were arranging tackle
and getting everything in shape for
an early start this morning A good
deal of bait was secured yesterday
and everything was prepared for to-
days campaign.
Out at East Lake and up at the
Tumbling Dam ponds there were
many boats out, and the cloudy day
made it an ideal one for the pickerel
fishing. Game Warden Conner is
about the Tumbling Dam to-day keep
ing an eye upon those who are reeling
in the fish to see that the gamey bass
are not disturbed. d
Game Warden Phifer, who is here
to-day, said that down at Cumberland
pond there was a big crowd out at
five O'Clock this morning, many of
them Italians, and Ehe has not the
slightest idea where they came from.
The morning train from Philadel-
phia brought big crowd of sports
with rod and reel, down to the vari-
GUS points along the road where there
are pickerel ponds.
The bass season comes in on the 18th
of June, and then the season will be
wide open, and from now on the ang-
lers will have good time.

POISON IN THE TEA.
Pilot and His Wife Made Very Ill in
Mysterious Manner

Wy StCEIOuS VvAdDHcEs
Cape May, April Thomas Ell
dredge, widely known Delaware Bay
pilot, and his wife had narrow es-
cape from death by some mysterious
poison.
While plotting a large foreign
steamer to Philadelphia some time
ago Mr. Eldredge was presented by
the captain with can of tea, the
captain informing him that it was the
very best raised in Japan.
Upon returning home Mr.. Eldredge
informed his wife of the gift, request
ing her to prepare some of the tea for
supper. Both pronounced it very fine
and they have used it continuously
until an evening or two ago.
After eating supper, at which Mr..
and Mrs. Eldredge drank pretty freely
of the beverage, they were suddenly
seized with terrible distress in the
stomach, both being affected alike,
though Mrs. Eldredge was considera-
BILE the worse of the two. A physi-
clan was hastily summoned and
emetics used. After long time the
couple were relieved, though for a
time their lives were departed of.
Mr. Eldredge is unable to account
for the accident, as they had used
nearly all the tea, unless the poison
Gus substance was at the bottom of
the can. The attending physician
will make an analysis of some of the
remaining tea.

HOUSE RAIDED
SATURDAY NIGHT.
Atlantic Street Place Visited by the
Police Officers Saturday Night
and Quite a Haul Was Made by

the Officers of the Force.

a house ON Atlantic street, and as a
result two notorious women, Edna
Brown and Edna Riley, are in Jail for
thirty days, and three fellows are feel
ing decidedly uncomfortable
The house is just off Broad street,
and is owned by woman named
Griner. a 1t has been suspicioned that
there were seances at this place not
permitted by law and certainly tabooed
by good society.
Saturday night Officers Woodruff,
Betchner and Barton went over to the
house, and in there found two women
and three men. One of the latter
was from Port Norris, another said
he hailed from Baltimore, while the
third one said he came from Bayside.
The outfit was taken before Mayor
Hampton and the two women Sun
day morning were committed to Jail
for thirty days each on charge of
dlsorderly conduct, while the men,
for some reason, were discharged.
Mrs. Griner was not disturbed, but
it may be that the Grand Jury will
make an investigation of the entire
matter.
