HANNA IS SINKING
Senator Became Unconscious,
But Has Rallied.
THERE IS STILL HOPE OF RECOVERY
Attending Physicians Say the Case Is
Despernte, but AZ He Has Come

lie May Do So Again.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-Although
Senator Hanna has had a sinking spell
and for a time his hearts action stop
ped. so that artificial respiration had
to be rcsorted to, he rallied perceptibly
when oxygen and powerful stimulants
had been administered.
After being unconscious for nearly
three hours the senator responded
slightly to the treatment and since
then has been in a semiconscious con-
dition.
Despite this seeming improvement.
the attending physicians said that the
case was still desperate. When the
oxygen treatment was discontinued
Senator Hanna breathed naturally, but
it was said that if he should have an
other similar attack he probably could
not survive 1t.
Nurses who were in the sickroom
during the crisis say the senator's vi
tality is wonderful.
Senators, representatives and friends
and admirers Of Senator Hanna stood
around the hotel corridors and spoke
In whispers about the struggle thu
senator was making to rally from thu
terrible attack which was slowly con
suming his vitality.
The doctors have given out some de
tails regarding the senator's attack
For two hours and a half they CAV

senator's pulse was up to $50, and a

ALARM FOR HosoKEN.

The Hoboken Observer, in an edi-
torial on the proposed mosquito ex-
hibit at the st. Louis fair speaks as
follows about State Entomologist
Smith:
sit has been thoughtlessly suggest
cd that this enemy of the mosquito
tribe should be named after State En-
tomologist Smith, that supreme au-
thority on insect determination. Such
an honor, it ought 20 be seen at q
glance, must prove a misit, for this
distinguished sclentist's methods, nc
matter how we'll meant. tend to the
propagation rather than to the des-
truction of the pests.
Now, we wonder what Professor
Smith has done to Hoboken to deserve
all this. Has he declared that city to
be the worst infected place in the
State? Has he declared it q hopeless
case? Has Hoboken formed an alli-
noe with the mosquito? We regret
the Observer has thas SO plainly spok-
en- for we fear the distinguished pro-
fessor from New Brunswick will take
offence and cross Hoboken off his list.
Think what a calamity that would be.
Poor Hoboken, she would then be-
come the only city in New Jersey
where mosquitoes abound. How
scornful her sister cities would then
look upon her. AS for us, we sa1,
all hail Professor Smith! May he
continue to smile upon us until the
mosquitoes are driven from the land.
We will then celebrate his memory
with ST. Patrick.

PERTH AMBoY EVENING NEWS, SATURDAY., FEBRUARY - Igc4
THIS WINTER HAS
BROKEN RECORDS.
Been Longest with One Exception
in Great Many Years-Temper-
AZURE Below Normal.

Figures prepared by the weather
bureau, show that this winter has
been an unusual open II in several
respects. In the first place it has been
an exceptionally long one, and the ex-
treme cold spells have been, with II
exception, of longer duration than in
q great many years. The exception
wal in 1880-Sl when the cold weather
continued for five months without a
break but was not characterized by
any excessively low temperatures.
The average monthly temperature
this winter has been below normal.
Last November the average was 40
degrees or two points below normal
for that month. In December it was
28 degrees, five points below the nor
NAL, and in January the average was
81 degrees or eight below normal.
Thus for this winter there have been
thirty-eight days when the temper
AZURE did not get beyond the freezing
point. Four of the days were in
November, eleven in December, nine
teen in January and four so far in the
present month. At the same time the
mercury has fallen below 80 degrees
on eighty days, and below zero on five
days. The lowest point was reached
January 5 and g., when 10 degrees be-
low zero was recorded, the coolest in
thirty eight years in this section.
Another excessively cold spell was ex-
perienced in the winter Of 1872-73,
whom the mercury uid not rise above
freezing point for forty-three days.

him, and then again they understood
when asked for something.
Mr.. Dover, Mr.. Hunna's secretary,
said that the immediate critical crisis
had passed and that the doctors think
the senator is entirely over the sink
ing spell. Mr.. Dover added that the
senator is of course 40 stronger and
if anything is weaker.
Miss Mary Phelps, the senator's
niece, who was in the room when the
doctor came, from the sickroom and
heard the announcement Of the rally,
asked:
''Then you have hope, doctorT'
Hooper" the doctor replied. "Of
course there is hope. When a man
rallies from a sinking spell such as the
senator had and showed such strength
afterward there is the best ground for
hope"
Senator Hanna Is passing through
the climax of his illness, and it was at
one time feared he was dying, but he
rallied strongly, and there is again
some hope that he yet may win the
forlorn fight. The odds are much
| against his recovery, but the sturdy
physique of the man, Eided by oxyger
| and powerful stimulmts, has brought
him through when he was sinking rap
idly and possibly may again. 1t is now
a question how long the climax of tbs
fever will last and how many and Sc
we're will be any further acute attacks
for the present spell was so severe thai
another probably would witness thu
end.
The president and Mrs. Roosevelt
called to inquire for Senator Hanna
and Mrs. Roosevelt was with Mrs
Hanna when the doctors announced al
improved temperature. The presiden
came later and remained in the sena
tors apartments nearly half an houi
when he was fully advised of his con
dition.

"Jacob Schnoor, OF full age. being
duly sworn according to law, on his
oath saith that he lives at Bedford, in
said county and State, and is during
the summer months engaged in the
business /of pound-net fishing. De-
ponent further saith that he has read
in the newspapers published in New
ark and copied extensively, that the
anglers have made affidavit that mil
lions OF small and unmarketable edible
fish are destroyed by the numerous
pound-nets and allowed to DRIFT and
wash ashore - and become offensive,
etc., but deponent saith that he knows
of his own knowledge from daily
working in nets, that there are not oy-
er forty pound-nets in Raritan and
Sandy Hook bay and that the mesh
they use on their nets arc so large as
to permit all fish TOO small to sell in
the open market to escape; that dur
ing deponent's fifteen years expert
ence at the business he has.always seen
and noticed that if any small fish re.
main in the nets at time they dip the
regular catch out, they are but few in
numbers and that all net fishermen
bale out the large fish which remain
OIL top, while the small ones go to bot
tom of the net, and that the small
ones are liberated after the big fish
are baied into the boats. Deponent
further smith that the net fisher
man v violates the law against
selling edible fish for fertilizers, and
never destroys a fish which is not
large enough to sell to dealers, of the
edible variety: further that they very
seldom have a dsaa fish in the pounds,
and if there were any they would be
taken ashore for fertilizer and not
thrown in the water to drift ashore
that more fish die because wounded
by being hooked by anglers, escaping
and dying from the wounds than are
ever killed by the nets gilling or catch
ing them. Some times, even in winter
fish are thrown with violence BY
waves against shore or piers and die
from effect of injuries received. De
ponent saith that he has been living
on and about the water and engaged
in fishing from the time he was nine
years old.

OPINION

Editor Evening News:
Referring to an editorial in which
you say that
"The Monmouth county fishermen
are up in arms against the bills which
have been introduced In the legisla-
ture to abolish the pound nets in
karitan bay and along the Atlantic
ooast. They claim that il the meas
ures become laws, a great many men
will be thrown out of employment.
The greater portion OF the foregoing
Is we'll said. The trouble is that the
proposed change of mesh ruins the
business, and the trouble with the
sportsmen's claim that there is whole.
sale destruction of the fish is, that il
is unsupported by the facts.
Kindly publish the subjoined affid-
avit by a man in the business but al
the same, time one of the most thor
oughly reliable men on the New Jer
sey coast. 1t is a simple statement Of
the facts as they exist.
