HIGH SHERIFF HENRY
CONTINUED from Page ~


The three judges hereupon held o
lengthy consultation, at the end OF
which Frear announced that Il seem
ed to the Court that the High Sheriff
should be present in person with the
prisoner, so as to be ready to do what
ever he would be directed to do. Dila'
tory pleas were not contemplated by
the statute; habeas corpus was for
swift justice. II was the opinion OF
the Court that Henry should be pres
preliminary pleas within proper lin
its, but the parties should be present
so that the whole matter could be dis
posed OF in one hearing.
Peters stated that Henry had gone
to the other Islands, but his deputy
Geo. Sea, was here. He asked for u
continuance until tomorrow morning.
High Sheriff Henry was the one
served" said Chief Justice Frear.
This amounts to a case OF contempt
ri court, doesn't it?"
Peters answered that Henry had
probably thought that someone in his
office would attend to producing the
prisoner. This duty did certainly not
come on the shoulders of the Attorney
Generals Department
Hartwell remarked that anything
which was trifing with habeas corpus,
whether II was intentional or not, was
dangerous matter.
The Court finally gave Peters until
2 p, m. in which to produce the prison
or and be ready to try the entire case

LEADS STATE.
Has The Largest Per Centage
of Increase of Any City
Thus Far Reported.

or the returns thus far made pub
lie by the secretary of state ,of, the
census of 1905 Perth Amboy shows
the highest per centage of increase.
Perth Amboy's growth shows that
it has increased from 1859 to U.s.
S95 in five years, This is an increase
of 1890 per cent and exceeds what
was regarded as a phenomenal grow
tn by Atlantic City, which increased
from 27,S3S to 1886, or 1904 per
cent.
Between 1890 and 1900 the pop
ulation of New Jersey increased s43S,-
1856, or 30.4 per cent. Twelve cities
returned in the census of 1905, each
having a population of more than
10000, or an aggregate of 636,574,
shows an increase of S0,S05, or H.
So per cent Should this proportion
ate increase hold through the state
it would be greater than that of the
corresponding period of the last dec
ade, and should it continue for the
next five years would give an in
crease for this decade of 31.17 per
cent, or II per cent, more than that
of the last ten years.

South AmhOy American Mechan-
les Excursion Stopped Here To-
day Had Bic Crowd.
FACTORIES GREETED.
Among Whistles Blown Was
One at SChantz & ECkerts,
Was Taken From SIOCum.

A number of people from this city
went on the excursion of the Ameri-
can Mechanics of South Amboy,
which stopped at the local steam
boat dock at $50 o'clock this morn
ing. The Mechanics and friends are
bound for North Beach on the steam
boat CePheus, where they expect to
have a gala time of it. The weather
was Just right and the crowd on the
steamer was in the best of spirits.
The committee in charge had engag-
ed the steamer Sirius, but as she was
recently disabled the Cepheus was
substituted.
AS the excursion pulled out from
the local steamboat dock the tugs
in the harbor and the factories along
shore blew salute Among the
whistles which saluted was the one
on the shop of Schantz and Eckert
in Front street. This whistle was the
one that blew for help on the ILL
fated steamboat General Slocum on
the fatal day last year. 1t was bought
from John H. Gregory when the hulk
of the Slocum was brought here.
When some of the people heard il
this morning it made them shudder.

CHILDREN ARE
SAFELY HOME.
BIG Sunday School Picnic
Ended Without an Accident
Scene at The Beach.

1t was tired but happy crowd of
children who returned to town yes
terday afternoon from the Leon &
Roessler Sunday school excursion.
That they had good time was
evident by the smiling faces and mer-
ry voices of the children.
Among the vast number of little
ones, the majority without guard
ian, there was not one causualty.
They were not allowed to go near
the water unless some older person
was with them. Everything was
free and a continuous stream of
children went down the bamboo slide
from 10 in the morning until in
the afternoon. AT lunch time the ice
cream and lemonade was served. The
young folks formed in line and re-
ceived their refreshments and a
more orderly and grateful lot Of
youngsters would be hard to imag-
inc.
Some of the pastors got their flock
together and played games in the
afternoon. The dance floor was Civ
en- over to the children and in fact
they owned the beach.
During the afternoon it is esti-
mated that between 1000 and L.
200 grown people from adjacent
towns visited the resort to see the
picnic.
When going home time came Man
ager Leon was beseiged by the null
titude who on many tongues, express
sed the thanks they felt for the de-
lightful time he had given them.
The children were put aboard the
cars in the same mannef they were
sent out and there was not the
slightest confusion.
The policemen, who yJent with the
excursion in the morIGing did not
return until $50 O'Clock and they
claim they had as good a time as
any of the children.

Councilman Haines at Council
Meeting Last Night Offered
Resolution to That Effect.
is A USELESS EXPENSE.
Structure Was Built To Reach
Deep Water at Low Tide But
Failed Needs Repairing.
Special to the Evening News.

! Special to the Evening News.
South Amboy, July 26-At the
meeting of the borough council last
night, Councilman Haines offered a
resolution that the borough dock at
the foot of Henry street be burned
and the end of it boarded up The
resolution was treated lightly and
later motion was passed that the
dock be repaired.
The borough dock has been a bone
of contention in the borough ever
since it was built There was
great deal of opposition to building
it, but those favoring it finally won
1t was the intention of reaching deep
water at low tide and afford a con-
venient boat landing at all times.
For that reason the dock extends
far out into the bay over the mud
flats, but the object was not accomp-
lished. The dock cost about $25, 900
and has been practically useless ex-
cept for promenade on warm
nights.
Those opposed to the dock argued
that the same amount of money puts
into factory building would bring
work and money into the borough
and thereby be a benefit. The dock
is now beginning to show signs of
wear and the people see only
constant expense ahead. If it is TO be
maintained. DR.. Hainf is not alone
in his opinion that the dock shou
be burned, and, after the BORON
has spent its good money repairing
it several times, with no profit being
derived from it, it is believed the
dock will eventually be closed and
allowed to rot.

Negro Wanted in Trenton in
Swamp Between South Plain
field and Railway.
DETECTIVES ARE BUSY.
Woman Living Near The Swamp
Says She Saw The
Man Yesterday.

Trenton, July 26:-The police net
is drawing close around Charles
Long, murderer of Matthew Cunning
ham, and officers of this city and
Plainfield are hot upon his trail. The
murderer is still hiding in the great
swamp where he was chased Mon
day night. This swamp is quite ex-
tensive and extends from New Mark
ct almost to Railway. The fugitive
was seen twice yesterday by, " woman
who lives in a farm house near the
swamp.
She reported to the police that a
colored man answering Longs des-
cription came out of the swamp and
went a distance along the road, anx-
iously inspecting the trees, evident
ly looking for apples to appease his
hunger. The woman said he went
back into the swamp and came out
few hours later, only to again dis
appear into the swamp.
Detectives Pilger and Clancy spent
the day in the neighborhood, serch-
ing for the fugitive. Their search
was unavailing, as was that of the
other officers who were guarding the
swamp.
Detective Pilger came back to
Trenton last night to report the prog
ress of the hunt. Detective Clancy
was left in the neighboorhood of
the swamp to keep up the search.
He will be relieved today by Detec-
tive Pilger.
The place where the negro was
seen yesterday is about three miles
distant from the point where he
disappeared into the swamp Mon
day night. The police have every
hope of ultimately starving him out.
Detective Pilger reports that the
$3.50 reward has started many farm
ers on the chase and every effort is
being made to run the negro to
earth. The detectives believe that
it is practically impossible now for
Long to leave the swamp without be-
ing captured. Wilbur F. Sadler's
big touring car was used by the Tren-
ton detectives yesterday in the
search for the negro.
The officers watching the swamp
yesterday heard that Long was be-
ing supplied with food by a colored
girl whose acquaintance he made in
the neighborhood. They are investi-
eating the report and will make an
effort to have all sources of food cut

Special TO the Evening news.
New Brunswick, July 26:-Six
bids we're received by the Board. of
Freeholders this morning for the
steel spans for the Amboy bridge
across the Raritan River. They were
referred to the finance committee,
which will report when the present
contract is completed.
The action of the freeholders this
morning practically ties up the bridge
until the dispute between the present
contractors and the county is set
tied as to who shall repair the dam
ages to the bridge caused by the ice
last winter. According to the speci-
fications for the spans, any firm de-
string to bid must file check with
the county collector by 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. At that time
twelve checks were filed signifying
that there would be that many bid
ders.
Were Only Six.
This morning, however, when the
bide were opened there were only
six bids. Before the meeting was
called Director Fountain had stated
that the contract for the work would
not be awarded until after the pres
ent work, now in the hands of San
ford & Harris, of Hoboken, had been
completed. He said the bids were be-
ing received merely to see II the
spans could be put in for the $75,-
900 appropriated.
''---------s Explained the Reason.
F. r. Long, representing one OF
the bidding firms, was given the floor
and explained that the reason there
were not twelve bidders, according
to the checks filed, was because OF
the statement made by the director.
The other companies, when they
found the bids were to be used only
as an estimate, did not want to show
their hands.
The Figures.
The bids opened are as follows
Berlin Construction Company, OF
New York, $71,S0O; Sanford & Har-
ris, of Hoboken, $66,970 F. M. Still
man & Company, of Jersey City,
$1,000; Pennsylvania Bridge Com
pany, of Beaver Falls, Pa, $71,O0O;

900: Mt. Vernon Bridge Company,
of Mt. Vernon, N. Y, $4,000,
OF these two are in dispute. The

to accepting these bids, but the whole
matter was referred to the finance

STRUCK A DIVIDEND
How the Bex Office Receipts Were
 Distributed.

Harry Jackson, the iead and shoul- cers of the George Samuels company which recently appeared in Phoanix. and Raymond Teal, the merry minstrel. who appeared 5t the Doris tne7ter last evening" are old time friends. Fourteen years ago, away back i1 Iowa and Illinois, when MT Teal was just beginner, MT. Jackson was the stage manager of a company which was playing most any old thing under the name Of Down the Slope" County fair dates were what the company was seeking when it opened, but it had two weeks to run before any fair would open. so the management decided to i'll in by playing several off towns.
 All of the company had waited several days for the company to start out, 50 they were financially up against it. Everyone looked forward to the night they were to open. and all of them an ticlpated the ghost would walk after the show. But they were doomed to disappointment. The net sum they each received that first night from tho manager was 2 measly little two-bit piece, and Teal says if tGe truth were bnowE they all slept in the depot in the place of the hotel. They had tickets and were able to ride out of town, but that twobit dividend all around was what the members ate on for twenty four hours.
 Luckily the next town was big busi- ness and finally the company closed good season. The other day MT. Teal met Harry Jackson on the San ta F'e flyer coming west out of Albu- querque. They had 9 good, long visit talking over old times and at the first Harvey house they came to they had a banquet only the two of them. but they got even for the day they went hungry fourteen years previous back in Illinois.
