STATE LEGISLATURE
Present Session Likely to Be
the Longest In Years.
ANOTHER WEEK Is NECESSARY.
Charges Against Senators Shinn and
Martens d Excitement to Closing
Days-Liauor Bills Take Up Much
Time-License Fixed at $500.
Especial Correspondence.

Trenton, April o.-The present SEES
sion of the New Jersey legislature bids
fair to be the longest, as it has been
the most exciting, in a number of
years. Today completes the thirteenth
week, and it is the consensus of opin-
necessary TO dispose of the work be-
fore the lawmakers. The charges of
eXtortion preferred against Senators
Shinn and Martens by Philip Krimke,
a Newark pawnbroker, have made the
closing days one of unusual activity.
The senate investigation of these
charges began Monday night. Senators
Shinn and Martens before jammed gal
leries asked for an investigation. Aft
er the secretary had read the state
ments they presented, Mr.. Hillery of
fered Il resolution which. 'deeming it
to be Il matter of justice both to the ac-
cused and to the senate itself to make
a thorough inquiry" provided for the
appointment of Il committee Of inVesti-
cation. The resolution was unanimous
ly adopted. and President Bradley ap-
pointed the members of the judiciary
committee to serve as investigators.
These members are Hillery of Norris,
Wakelee of Bergen aud Minturn of
Hudson.
The matter was taken up yesterday
wednesday, by the judiciary commit
tee. and il number of witnesses were
examined as to the charges against the
two senators. The committees report
will be submitted to the senate. VIII
liam II. Corbin of Jersey City, who has
conducted Il number of legislative in
vestigations in the last twenty years,
was made counsel to the committee.
The first of the bills oyer which the
charges have been made cuts monthly
interest to l per cent and requires Ii
censed pawnbrokers to sell pledges ut
public auction after a notice of ten
days. The other makes the three ball
gentry liable to owner for pledged ar
ticles that have been stolen or misap-
propriated. The last mentioned is cred
tied with aiming primarily to enable
carpenters to recover tools that have
been stolen and pawned. Both bills
had been referred to the committee on
labor and industries, of which commit
tee both the accused senators are mem
bers along with Mr.. Alderman, who
has not figured in the case.
Milk Bill Amended
A~ssemblyman Hoagland's milk bill
was so amended as to provide for a
notice to "A dealer whose milk falls be-
low the standard of less than II per
cent solids. The amendment also pro-
vides for penalty for adulteration.
Governor Stokes Monday night sent
a message, with a letter of Secretary
of State Root asking New Jersey to
Join with Delaware in ceding to the
United States title to land covered by
the Delaware bay at Dan Baker and
Stony Point shoals.
In executive session the senate re-
ceived from the governor the following
appointments: Joseph Coult as presid-
ing Judge of the court of common
pleas of Sussex county, vice Henry C.

Egg Rolling at the White House.

In our own country, as well as Scot
land, egg rolling forms an important
feature of the day, though, strange to
say, in the United States it has ac-
quired national fame only in Wash
ington. Easter Monday in this city is
a holiday, and from 8 o'clock until
SHUTDOWN the grounds of the White
House are thronged with thousands of
children intent on egg rolling, for
which the steep slopes of the White
House grounds are admirably suited.
The president and his wife always
look on, and with the bands playing
and the immense throng of spectators
it makes the day one long looked for
ward to by the children of Washing
ton. All kinds and colors of eggs are
used, but in Mesopotamia, the country
from which egg rolling originally
came, only red eggs are used, in re-
~membrance of the crucifxion.-Wash-

BURNS POSTS
LARGE FORFEIT
AGREES TO PUT BERGER AWAY
IN 20 ROUNDS
VIII Give New star a Thousand Dol.
lars II He Goes the LImIt--De-
eIares o'Brien and Berger
Are Playing for Easy
Money

Tommy Burns, active heavyweight
champion OF the world, last night de-
posted $1,000 with the Herald as a for
felt to Sam Berger in the event Of his
not putting the new star away within
twenty rounds.
OF all the men who eke out pit
tance in the ring Tommy is perhaps
the most wrathy at the present time.
It wasn't sufficient that he should wit
ness an opportunity slip of collecting
few simoleons by having his match
with Bob Fitzslmmons nipped In the
bud. Just as he was dreaming OF a
big AL Kaufman lying on the mat the
heavyweight sends word that their
match Is off.
When Jack O'Brlen refused all over
lures to meet Tommy between the
ropes Burns was willing to take on
anyone who would sign articles and
after fruitless endeavor to get Berg
er, the San Francisco novice who at
tained notoriety by staying six rounds
with Jack O'Brien. turned to Kaufman.
The match was apparently cinched
when Billy Delaney again burst the
bubble
Now Tommy has gone after Samuel
with vengeance and declares that he
will force him to a match If such a
thing is possible. Burns is very skep-
er match at Philadelphia and the pro-
posed bout between the two men which
Is talked of to occur at San Francisco.
IF O'Brien and Berger meet up
north" says Tommy, the greatest
fake of the age will come off. The
Philadelphia affair was a frame UP, as
OBrien agreed to go easy with Berger
in order that they might get together
for big purse somewhere else. O'Brien
judges Berger as a pipe and wants to
get coin for nothing by meeting what
he thinks would be a cinch.
"They are both afraid of me and are
trying to fool the public with the idea
that the only heavyweight scrap on
the market should be framed UP be-
tween themselves"
The more Tommy talked the angrier
he grew and what he had to say of
Berger would not have made that
worthy's ear burn to any great extent.
But what Burns gives forth appears
very plausible Jack O'Brien Is unde-
niably a boxer from the word go, but
great majority are coming to the con-
clusion that the Philadelphia lawyer
and diplomat wants none of Burns
game Jack is not so young as he once
was and may be wise in touring Eu-
rope rather than sticking around for
Thomas to get busy with him.
But Berger has yet to prove that he
Is world beater and the sooner he
goes about 1t the more satisfactory will
1t be to all interested. He stayed six
rounds with O'Brien, but that is very
different proposition than remaining
with Tommy Burns for twenty.
1t is up to Sam now.
