ANOTHER MALTA MURDER.
Bullet Holes Found in Body Weight
ed Down in Canal.

NEWARK, Mar. 14;-The police
suspect the awful hand of the Malta
in the mystery attending the finding
of the body of a man in the bed OF

isolated sections of the city and the
nearest houses are occupied by ltal-
ians. The body is that of a man
about middle age. Tied about the
waist was a rope, and to this was
tied a heavy stone, which served to
sink the body into the water and
mud. The throat was cut as if with
a razor, and there are bullet holes in
the body.
The murder must have been COM
mitted about 9 O'Clock Monday night,
according TO those who heard pistol
shots at that hour. Besides having
his throat cut the man was shot at
least eight times, and two revolvers
were used to do the shooting, for the

TRENTON, Mar. 14.-Advocates
of the thorough elimination of what
they referred to as the mosquito
h~atcheries' of the country appeared
in force before the senate committee

marsh area of the state. which it was
held is the chief breeding spot OF the
pest.
Assistant Attorney General DUFF
field, who opened the discussion as a
resident Of South Orange, told OF the
work which had been done in ms
township for the elimination OF the
pest. South Orange, he said, was
able 10 take care of its own mosqui-
toes, but it could not guarantee to
take care of those of its neighbors.
Dr.. +. b. voorhees,, of the state
board OF agriculture, submitted hg-
ures to show that the reclamation OF
the marsh area would more than pay
in the increased value of the land all
that the state was asked to appro-
pirate.

told in detail of the habits of mosqul-
toes of all character, fresh water
salt water and all other kinds, apd

only logical solution OF the PROPOSE
ton. DR.. Smith. he said, had dem
