THE PUMP
If the New Well Is Ready the
Pump Will be Attached and
Given Trial.

At Runyon today the new Worth
ington pump will be given its first
test with water if the new well Is
ready. The new pump was turned
over to the water board some time

not been used in pumping, and its
capacity, which is 100000 gallons
a day, has never been tried
The diver has completed the work
on the bottom of the intake well,
and yesterday the men were busy
pumping out the water, which has
become slightly discolored by the ce-
ment, and if the we'll is clear enough
today, the new pump will be given
it's first trial as to efficiency in pump
ing. 1t has had machinery trial be-
fore.
In few days the cement sides will
be placed in the well, which is the
last step to make it complete.
The ground storage system is near
ly finished and in a few weeks the
works will be in full operation and
the water board promises that the
city will be drinking excellent water.
1t is understood that Henry h.
Worthington, the manufacturer OF
the pump, will visit the works soon
and examine the system personally.
Adam Eckert, clerk of the water
board, was at the plant yesterday ana

ARRES
UNDER NEW
EXCISE LAW
Chief Burke and Detective Huff
Took InSIee Street Bother
Into Custody.
WAS SELLING AT RETAIL.
Police Say He Was Dealing Il
Out from a DemijOhn in His
Wagon.

For violating the new state excise
law, John Dudo, of Inslee street, is
now held on $500 bail to await the
action of the grand jury. Dudo is a
bother, and holds such a license for
his place in lnslee street, but last
night, according to Chief Burke and
Detective Huff, he was caught sell
ing whiskey by the pint and quart
from his wagon on Fox Hill road,
near Smith street
At the time of his arrest, Dudo had
number of demijohns full of whis-
key in the wagon, and the police say
he was selling it withou any regard
for the law, which gives him the
privilege to sell liquor only in bot
ties.
This is the first excise case to be
tried under the new law and if he is
found guilty ne will probably receive
the full penalty for the offense.
Dudo was arrested at 1880 O'Clock
last night, just after he is said to
have made sale.

CHAMBERS
Eight More Horses We're Killed
at the South River Brick
Yard Yesterday.
ONE SHOT AT FANWOOD
This City Is In Good Shape and
1t Is Believed that Danger
Here Is Over.

Eight more horses, infected with
glanders, were shot at the South Riv-
er Brick Company stables yesterday
by State Veterinarian w. Fl. Lowe,
also one horse at Fanwood, in Union
county.
This makes total of thirteen ami
mails that have been shot there by
the inspector, under the orders of the
state board of health.
Only four horses now remain at
the brick plant, and if these should
show signs of incubation, they also
will be killed.
The IL pector said that the brick
works looked like battlefield yes
terday after the shooting, and points
out how the epidemic spreads, as in
the case at Fanwood, which is the
first one in Union county
DR.. Lowe says that things are in
good shape in this city now, and that
the disease is about exterminated
here, but that the strictest caution
must still be exercised for some time.
The veterinarian is at Railway to-
day making further Investigations.
1t was learned later DR.. Lowe dis
covered a horse at Railway this
morning that showed evidence of in
incubation and shot it at once. The
horse was found in the stable of Will
, liam Danner, a painter, and 1t is
,umored that the animal was
brought from Perth Amboy.
II ic a1co said that thp horse diSpOV.
cred by the inspector this morning
has been kept in a field
near the poor house for some time,
and was recently brought to Rah-
way, where it was found this morn
ing.
DR.! Lowe wished to make public
that anyone concealing a glandered
horse or removing one to another
locality makes himself liable to
criminal prosecution.

Carpenters Ready
TO Arbitrate
Matter.
MEETING LAST NIGHT.
Bosses Will Meet Friday Night
and Consider the PROPOSE
ton as Submitted by
Rev. James H. North
run.

The carpel. ters' union met last
night, and decided to accept the prop
osition made by Rev. James II. Nor
thrup to arbitrate the labor question.
The following committee was appoint
ed to wait upon Mr.. Northrup and no
tify him of their decision: James
Donehue, A. A. Quinn, Matthew
Smith. Adolph Koyen and William
Bath.
night at 1890 o'clock after the meet
ing
1t is understood that a long dis
cussion took place at the meeting of
the carpenters, over the proposition,
and it was only after much argument
that the final decision was reached.
No further action can be taken un-
til the master builders hold their reg
ular meeting Friday night, when
they will consider the proposition.
Mr. Northrup has not intimated
which way the question should be
settled. He did not go into the mer-
its of either side in the controversy
His proposition consisted merely of a
plan for choosing an arbitration com
mittee to whom the questions should
be submitted.
Mr. Northrup's plan is that the
Irneymen and the bosses shall each
draw up separate lists, naming mer
with whom they would be willing tc
entrust their cause. Then the lists
shall be exchanged. The journey
men shall pick one man from the
bosses list and the bosses choose one
man from the journeymen's list. The
two men thus selected will, in reality
be agreed upon by both sides. Ther
these two men are to pick third and
the committee thus made up are tc
settle the strike.
Now that the journeymen have sig
nified willingness to arbitrate 1t is
hoped the employers will do likewise
Mr. Northrup, when seen this morn
ing, seemed greatly encouraged.

Person TO Care for Son.

RENO, New. July 31-AIrs. William
Ellis Corey, wife of the president OF
the United States Steel corporation, has
been awarded a divorce in the Second

submitted without argument, and the
Jury took but one ballot.
Mrs. Corey was in tears when told
that she had been given a decree and
the custody of her sixteenyear-old SOD.
Allan Corey. No evidence was sub
mitted by the defense, and there was
no argument.
Mrs. Corey was not questioned as to
a money settlement, but it is under
stood that she received an even $1,000
600. with generous provision for her
son.
1t is understood that Corey shortly
will wed New York woman, whose
standing in society will enable him to
crafty his larger social aspirations.
"I am resident of Reno, Nev.," said
Mrs. Corey when placed on the stand,
"and the wife of William Ellis Corey
the defendant In this action. We were
married on Dec. /, 1883, at Pittsburg
Pa, and lived together until May J.,
1905 At that time my husband de-
serted me and went to New York. |
followed him and held conversation
with him in the Hotel Lorraine. 1t was
there that he told me that he had decid-
ed to live apart
HE said that it was impossible for
us to live happily together and that l
would never see him again. He stated
that he intended going to Europe for
several months. There was no scene.
| talked With him about the matter and
urged him to again resume his place in
our home, but he refused. l have new
er seen him since"
Miss Addie Corey, sister-in-law of
the respondent, was an interesting wit
ness She corroborated Mrs. Corey's
statement that Corey had deserted his
wife and told how she and her aged
mother had made several Intellectual at
tempts to effect a reconciliation
Her brother, she said, had lost sight
of his home, being absorbed in busi-
ness and infatuated with the fast life
of New York.
"Do you consider Mr.. Corey a prop
er custodian for his son?' she was
asked
81 do not" she replied.
"Why?"
"For the reason she said. that he
is not proper person for his son to
associate with. He has no home. and
his associates are not fit companions
for young man of Allan's age. / dc
not think any New York man is fit to
have charge of boy of his age
do you mean all New York men
Miss Corey?' continued the attorney.
''I mean wealthy New York men,"
Allan Corey the young son, stated
that at the time of the parting his ia
ther called him to his office and told
him that he had decided to part from
his mother He said was too young
to understand the reasons. He then
said that my mother was a good wo-
man and that my place was at her
side"
At the conclusion of the trial Attor-
ney Sardis Summerfeld of Reno stat
ed his client, William Il. Corey. who
was not present, was as anxious for
the decree of divorce as his wife. "If
the decree is granted" he said, "Mr.
Corey will be entirely satisfied. He
has consented TO this divorce"
