Roosevelt was pleased to justify his
stewardship in review Of the year for
the benefit of his neighbors at the
Fourth OF July celebration here. He
spoke in the open air and nearly all
Of his utterances were delivered during
a heavy downpour Of rain. When he

No one deserted the celebration. The
rain came suddenly, and there was no
shelter in sight, and when the presi-

raised he remarked good naturally: II

There was no doubt that the presi-

this duty he would act without fear,

an hour. He was cheered on by the
waving of wet flags and cries of APP

TAMMANY CELEBRATES
Bourke Cochran Says Things in the
Speech He Delivers.

New York, July 5.-The annual cele-
bration of the society of Tammany. or
the Columbian Order. took place in hon
or of the 130th anniversary of United
States independence. The Exercises,
which We're held in Tamm NY Hall,
were attended by prominent aen from
many pats of the country. The adj
dress of welcome was delivered by
Grand Sachem w. Bourke Cochran,
and the burden of his speech was graft
and violhtion of law in high places.
He said the decision of the New
York court that the insurance company
contributions were not criminal was
not justice. but paralysis of justice.
adding: IF the choice should be be-
tween riot and rottenness. then / say
riot is the lesser evil Of the two" Cock
ran said that recent sickening ex-
posures had disclosed the facts that
all great corporations were fountains
OF fraud; that the great robbers in
these corporations had not been pun
ished, but had frightened their grips on
the funds under their control.
Further along Cochran said: I'VE
have seen out in Omaha man who
had perpetrated against child a crime
which every principle and instinct Of
Christianized manhood considers most
heinous, when arraigned before a jury
upon evidence which he did not deny.
including his own confession, acquit-
ted FOR no other reason than that the
man against whose family the offense
had been committed was himself a
habitual yiolator of the law. The jury
declined to convict Pat Grove for one
offense committed against Cudahy. who
himself was committing numerous Of
fenSes every hour and every day OF his
life / do not say this is justice. 1t
is parody on justice. or rather it is a
paralysis of justice. But the paralysis
IS the result of corruption ut the
heart"
One of the principal addresses Of tho
day was delivered by Representative
Sullivan. of Massachusetts,. who spoke
OF what he regarded as the evils
which have grown out Of the protee-
tive tariff Representative Henry. of
Texas, delivered one Of the long talks

Collins Took the Poisonous Dose Him-
self
Special coTespondenoe OF Every Evenine.
Dover, Feb. 3.-William Collins, %
years Of age, was found by Grant Abbott,
a farmer by whom he is employed, on
Wednesday, lnder wagon, moaning and
apparently in great agony. Collins was
taken to the house and when asked what
was the matter, replied that bis wife had
given him a dose of strychnine. DR.. T.
O. Clements was summoned, and after
several hours work, poison antidotes
being administered, Collins was pro-
nounced out of danger.
His assertion that his wife administered
the poison, caused an immediate investi-
CATION, which proved the charge to be
untrue, as at the time he was taken III his
wife was registered at work at Richardson
d Robbins canning factory, in this town.
Inquiry at the drug stores here revealed
the fact that Collins had coDle to town
and at the drug store Of Clarke & Nc
Daniel, purchased nine grians of strych-
nine, giving the druggist TO understand
that he was buying it 10 kill some dogs

According 20 the Salem Standard
and Jerseyman, unusual activity 10
being displayed by the West jersey a
Beashore Railroad Co., between Cam
den and Woodbury., In establishing its
new electric system. Plans have been
perfected and all the contracts given
out which call for the completion OF
the road between Camden and Atlantic
City and Camden and Millville by July
first next.
While it is difficult to learn all that
iu contemplated, it 10 said that after
the first OF July nothing but electric
trains will run over the main line OF
the West Jersey & Seashore road be-
tween Camden and Atlantic City for
passenger trhiiio. Contracts have been
given for fifty-four high power electric
cars and the cars will be delivered in
June. These cars are 10 te built Of
steel and will be OF the same length as
the present passenger coaches. They
will be operated by the third rail
system and will have a maximum speed
Of sixty miles an hour. In fac they
are like the electric cars now in opera
tion on the New York A Long Island
Railroad and will have sufficient power
10 draw a long train of the regular
passenger coaches
A large powerhouse is being erected
at Weatville and one Is also to be con-
ntruoted at Millville. Alter the system
10 put into operation all locomotives
| will be taken of the Cape May division
above Millville except for freight and
q special track IL nos heing laid from
Camden to Millville solely for the use
Of freight trains.
Passenger trains for the Salem OF
Bridgeton branches will be drawn by
electricity from Camden TO Woodbury.
and Glasshoro, and from those points
locomotives will take them TO their des-
tination until such times as the entire
system is equipped for electricity.
Below Millville there " i'll be a steam
train 10 carry the local travel. The sea-
shore express trains to Cape May,
Ocean City, Wildwood, etc. will not
run through Woodbury., Millville, ,eto. as
heretofore, but will 60 over the Reading
tricks via WinHlow junction and then
TO the West Jersey tracks near Wood
bino. By this plan much time will be
saved In reaching seaHhoTe points. In
order to get a double track to the sea
the West Jersey iu laying track paral-
lel with the Reading and the oompa-
MES will use the tracks jointly.
In the matter Of electric train SER
vice it 10 understood that the trains
will run between Camden and Wood
bury from early morning until late al
night every fifteen minutes and be-
tween Camden and Millville every hall
hour. So far ns the trainmen on the
Salem branch are concerned they will
not run further north than Woodbury.,
for all trains will connect there with
the electric system.
II seems probable that the improve
mentu will extend 10 the Salem anr
