liams, " at the Harriet pavilion for this
both sides" and again to hear "why
Jones should not be nominated.'
The meeting is to be strictly an anti
Jones affair. The mayors policies Of
law enforcement are to be attacked by
Williams speakers. No attempt will be
made to have any Jones speaker pres
ent, tho at a special Jones meeting in

tame, one of the Williams spellbinders,
endeavored to inject himself into the

I .e iron. banks on public funds, the city

MARKED DECREASE
IN DEATH RATE.
0ctober's Good Showing Through
out State No Increase in
Typhoid Fever.

TRENTON, Nov. 6:-Reports sub
mitted from the various local dis
tricts to David S. South, registrar of
the State Bureau of Vital Statistics,
show a marked decrease in the New
Jersey death rate for the past month.
During October there were 2,519
deaths reported. This in a decrease
of ZIG from the month of September
and 719 less than for the month of
August.
There were 613 deaths among in
fants of less than one year, 254 of
children under five years of age and
over one year, and 500 deaths of per-
sons more than sixty years of age.
AS is usual at this season of the
year the number of deaths from in
fantile diarrhoea is diminishing, the
mortality from this cause for October
being only 237, or only As per cent.
OIL the mortality for September.
The reports, however, show that
tuberculosis continues to maintain a
high death rate, there being 257 dur
ing the month.
Pneumonia claimed 100 victims.
There were 313 deaths from ner-
vous diseases, SO less than the aver
age for several months.
The usual annual increase in the
deaths from typhoid fever has not
appeared yet this year and the state
may escape the high mortality of
other years. There were only twenty
sever deaths from this disease last
month.
During the same period scarlet
fever claimed three victims, measles
two and whooping cough ~forty-two.
There were twenty-seven cases of
suicide during the month, about the
usual number.
Other causes of death included:
Diphtheria and Group, AZ; canoe
loo; cerebro spinal meningitis, 20;
Bright's disease, 166.
