SAYS JUSTICE FORT
Is a POOR EDITOR.

LAKEWOOD, Oct. 22:-When
Leslie R. Fort, editor Of The Times
and Journal of Lakewood, who re-
Gently returned from a honeymoon
in Canada, takes another vacation 1t
is probable that he will not leave the
affairs of his paper in charge of his
father, Supreme Court Justice j.
Franklin Fort. The Times and Jour
nal is a weekly newspaper, published
on Fridays, and On Friday, October
IL, Justice Fort, in accordance with
the promise made to His son, came
here to put the finishing touches on
the editorial page and see that the
paper went to press in due form.
Justice Fort considered the oppor-
tunity to have a little fun at his sons
expense too good to miss, and ac-
cordingly, he wrote this notice for
the issue of October Ia: t,n
THE editor of this paper was mar
ried this week "wednesday, and he
is away as this comes from the press.
If there are any errors they must be
charged to the printers devil, as
must this statement, which is not
written with the APPROVAL of that same
editor. If we are discharged for this
PRESUMPTION ACT, We dSh LOI luS COA-
dolence of the public"
In Fridays issue of The Times and
Journal is this editorial comment:
ut is indeed a pleasure for the
editor of The Times and Journal to
return to take charge of the publica-
ton after a trip which, while pleas
ant, has not been free from mortifica-
ton, on account of the unwarranted
act of those in charge during his alb
sence. We left, little thinking that
a plunge into matrimony would bring
us into fame, and that through our
own columns. If there ever is a next
time we will know better than to
have a member of the family write
the editorials, or have anything to do
with the paper.
"Our readers can imagine the mix
ed pain and pleasure with which we
were informed by a hotel clerk in
Quebec that there was an an account
of that leading editorial of last week
in the New York Sunday Herald.
I'VE are profoundly thankful for
one thing, however. The acting edi-
tor said: IF there are any errors
they must be charged to the printers
DEVIL who in this case appears to
have been himself. We are thank
full, because last weeks paper was
the poorest edited sheet that has ever
come into our hands"

SlLvEIRA LOOT 100000
Cuban DefauIter Got Away With
Big Sum In Cash.

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-New light. on
the ease of Manuel Silveira, agent for
j. NJ. Ccballos & Co, Cuban bankers,
who is now a fugitive from justice.
was shed by F. J. Sherman, who ar
rived from Havana on the steamship
Seguranca after one of the stormiest
voyages on record.
Mr.. Sherman, who is manager Of the
Cuban branches of the Royal Bank of
Canada, went to the Waldorf-Astoria
and will go to Washington to call upon
President Roosevelt.
Discussing the case Of the Cuban alb
sconder, he said that Silveira did not
take anything like a million dollars, as
had been reported, although 1t is pos
sible," he added, that he owed that
much money, for which Ceballos &
Co. would be Jointly liable. The lar
gest amount he got away with was
100000, and it is possible that he took
that much in solid cash.
Silveira, accompanied by his family,
arrived at Caracas on Oct. 10 from
Puerto Cabello. He has rented a house
in a fashionable street and is received
splendidly by society there. His
friends are unconscious of the. alleged
defalcations.

SPRING LAKE, Oct. 22:-With
the Atlantic Ocean on one side,
Shark river on the other, Beal Pond
to the south, and rain everywhere,
those at the Methodist Protestant

t%estants, Congregationalists and
United Brethren was not accomplish

695 in the same period.

City, Saturday night gave a glowing
account of his summer in the Holy

tune of $4,000 has come to William
H. Lewis, of North Plainfield, he be-
ing the principal beneficiary of the
will of Mrs. Ida Lee Lewis, an aunt
who recently died in London, Eng

ter who had received a note from w.
r. Higgins, of Fifth avenue, New
York, to that effect.
Lewis is a tailor employed in a
Somerset street shop, and when he
was told that he was $4,000 richer

completely by surprise. When asked

WILL STOP PROPOSED
RECORD TRIP IN AUTO
j. B. R. Smith. Commissioner Of
Motor Vehicles, to Prevent Lytle
from Breaking the Law.

TRENTON, Oct. 22.-J. B. R
Smith, state commissioner of motor
vehicles, has been informed that H
H. Lyle will today undertake tc
make a record breaking trip between
Camden and Jersey City in a twenty
horsepower Pope Toledo car. Mr.,
Smith was seen Saturday relative to
what action will be taken by him to
prevent the violation of the Freling-
huysen automobile law. He said:
"Mr. Lytle has not yet obtained a
license, and l do not know his adj
dress. Upon being informed of this
proposed record breaking trip, inn
mediately sent this telegram to the
agents of the Pope Toledo car:
1.-The newspapers report that Fl
H. Lyle purposes a record breaking
run through New Jersey in a Pope
Toledo car on Monday. This cannot
be allowed under Jul laws. / accor-
dinghy send this to you. / am also
notifying the different police depart
ments of the state. Lyle has not yet
taken out a license, and / do not know
his address,
Mr.. Smith has notified the various
police departments throughout the
state of the proposed run, and he was
very emphatic in his request that all
persons having authority to arrest
should be on the lookout for not only
this particular would-be %violator, but
for all others at this and other times.

LEAKS OUT AS FASH
AS The RAIN FALLS
Condition at the Orange Reservoir
Causes Continued Anxiety to
Officials and Citizen ms.

ORANGE Oct. 22.-Despite heavy
rains Saturday and yesterday the wat
er situation in Orange, which mas
been a cause of great concern to Oh
metals and citizens, still causes anAr
ETY.. The leakage is tremendous
through the poor dam, and as the
greater amount of water ows INTO
Campbell's pond the water is forced
out in large volume. The rains pre-
vented workmen from Siamesing the
East Orange and Orange water supply
pipes at Wyoming, but the men IN
charge will hasten the job as much
as possible.
There have been experts at the source
OF supply in the last few days, and
several engineering opinions have
been presented looking to a solution
of the difficulty. 1t is conceded at
fairs are in a very bad way and per-
emptory action is required to remedy
existing conditions.
The heavy rains of Saturday night
did not increase in any great volume
the quantity of water in the lake ow-
ing to leakage. There was by meas
urement eight feet and three inches
OF water yesterday. At the meeting
OF the water committee tonight the
men in charge will furnish written re-
ports of the reason for conditions at
the pumping station. So many con-
Trajectory statements have been fur
nished the authorities went to get
something formal before them.
Arthur A. Reimer, water superin-
tendent of East Orange, who has lent
valuable assistance in the critical per-
iod, has in charge the work of making
the connection between the East Or
ange and Orange supplies. The insin-
uations that have been made by some
persons that the water was deliber-
ately released from the pond have
been branded as false, after careful
examination of the station made by
the officials. The story was circulat-
ed as an excuse for the failure to look
the tremendous leakage, al
though attention had been called to
the slipping away of the water in the
reservoir.
