Nd STRIKE ON CENTRAL
General Manager Tells Of Offer to
SWitchmen.

ELIZABETH, Dec. 14:-In an in
terview here Wednesday night Clar-
ence P. Huntington, general manager
of the Central Railroad of New Jer-
sey, declared that. he believed there
would be no strike of the 200 train
men of his road, nor of the 500
switchmen of the other roads, who
are seeking az increase in pay. This
was the frat official statement from
any official Of the company.
There is no possibility Of a strike
on the Central railroad" said Mr.
Huntington.
THE only question at ISSUE" he
continued, lis the question regarding
pay of switchmen in terminal yards,
such as the yard at Jersey City, where
200 Central men are employed. The
switchmen of all the railroads are
making demands, which call for an
increase of six cents an hour, or sixty
six cents a day more than they are
now getting. They want to get the
same rates paid the men in Chicago,
where wages have been higher for
years.
AT a conference some weeks ago
the company agreed to a four-cent
an hour increase, or %forty-four cents
a day. The poll that has beer going
on for the last two weeks among the
trainmen is to determine whether or
not they shall accept the offer, or
stick to their original demands.
1.-The switcnmen at the Jersey City
terminal get twenty-six cents an hour.
The head drillers get twenty-nine,
while the night drillers get twenty
nine and t~hirty-one, an average of
$SS to 800 a month. The in
crease we propose to give them would
mean about $13 or $14 a month
more.'

HEARING IN JAMES
DUNHAM'S DIVORCE SUIT

Testimony was taken yesterday af-
ternoon in the case of James Durham
for divorce from his wife, Lillian
Rasmussen. Durham, before G.. C..
Hommann, as special master, at JOS
eph E. Stricker's law Offices in Smith
street. The case arose out of the
alleged desertion of Mr.. Durham by
his wife a few months after their
marriage in June, 1903, in this city.
1t is alleged that Mrs. Durham left
her husband about six months after
their marriage, and went to Asbury
Park for some time. She later re-
turned here, where she has been
since.
Joseph E. Stricken, attorney for
Durham, said this morning that the
evidence against Mrs. Durham,
which was gathered from yesterdays
hearing, seems much in favor of Mr..
Durham, and there Is little doubt
but what a divorce will be granted
when the testimony is brought before
the vice chancellor.

BROWN NOT TO
Former Senator Did Not Intend
to Take Action Against
Mrs. Bradley.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-That for
mer Senator Arthur G. Brown Of Utah
did not intend to prosecute Mrs. Anna
NJ. Bradley If he recovered from the
pistol shot wound which caused his
death was the testimony of Dir. White.
superintendent of the Emergency hos
pital, at the inquest to determine Off
clally the cause of Browns death. The
physician said the dying man SO stat
ed his intentions during one of his
lucid moments.
The only light he himself threw ON
the tragedy was when Judge Gum, his
law partner. ran to him Il few mo-
ments after he had been shot.
What Is the matter, Arthur" ask
ed Judge Gum.
wen. answered Brown. we've had
1t out, and this is the result"
Brown's friends say he did not wish
to say anything that might be used
against Mrs. Bradley after his death.
He was willing to take his medi.
cine" said a western senator who had
known him for twenty years. with
his knowledge of the law he knew
that no statement he might make could
be used against the IN if he lived,
and he did not wish to carry the mat
ter beyond the grave
The jury found Mrs. Bradley guilty
of the shooting, and she was held to
await the action of the grand jury.
Detective Burlingame testified that
Mrs. Bradley told him at the police
station that she fired the shot.
"She told me she was the mother of
two of Browns children and of his
refusal to marry her" said the detec.
tive.
When the verdict was read Mrs.
Bradley collapsed and for a time was
IN a serious condition. AS soon as she
was able to make the trip she was re-
moved to the District Jail.
1t was expected that Mrs. Annie c.
Adams of New York, mother of Maude
Adams, a well known actress, would
be present and make public the ma
ture of her friendship with Brown and
fell of the letters from her found
among Browns effects.
1.-THE principal reason l made au up.
pointment to meet Senator Brown in
New York this week was to force him
TO have an Interview with Mrs. Brad
ley" was all Mrs. Adams would say
when seen III her arrival here.
Mrs. Adams had stated that Brown
in event of his recovery would explain
their correspondence, but that If he
should die she would do so. 1t is ex-
pected that these letters will fully re-
veal the motive which impelled Mrs.
Bradley to shoot Brown.
That Mrs. Adams was the cause of
the shooting of Brown by Mrs. Brad
ley Is conceded.
1t is reported that Mrs. Adams had
intended to marry Brown. but the re-
port could not be verified.
The body of the former senator was
shipped today to Salt Lake City,
where the funeral and interment will
fake place. His son Max and daugh-
ter Alice accompanied the body.

TRACKLESs TRAINS
GO EVERYWHERE.

Locomotives without tracks, draw
ing behind them long trains of cars,
and speeding over the highways, are
today familiar sights in Europe, from
France In the west, to Turkey in the
east. Under the caption, "Traekless
Trains Go Everywhere" Donald
Burns in the Technical World Maya
zine so writes. Wherever the ordi-
nary four-wheeled vehicle can go, the
trackless trolley can go likewise. The
author describes one particular mod
el. This latest prodigy, the Renard
train, is a train of passenger or
freight vehicles, headed by a steam
or gasoline locomotive, which travels
over country roads and town or city
streets. The ordinary railway train
calls for steel rails and a special right
of way: the Renard train has no ne
cessity for either of these, but shares
the common highway with the horse
drawn vehicle
Further on, the writer says: 'In
France the Renard train has been
used for military service with marked
results. A convoy SO transported oc-
cupies one-eighth the space of one
drawn by mules, or horses, and 1t
travels al a speed of ten miles per
hour" Even Turkey and Persia.
two countries which are noted for
their backwardness in most things,
have been quick to take up the new
ideas.

The record, 1850 miles Z laps,
was made by Miller and Waller in
1899.
NEW YORK, Dec. 14:-Another
bad spill in the six-day bicycle race
at Madison Square Garden, which
called for loud protest from the spec
tators, occurred early this morning
when for the eighth time Bobby Wal
thour and John Bedell were prevent
ed from regaining the lap they lost
through an accident early in the con-
test. Seven riders went down, and
the race was suspended for an hour.
The trouble was caused by Joe
Fogler, teammate of Eddie Root,
who fell from his wheel as Bedell
vas making a seemingly successful
effort to regain the coveted distance.
The big crowd thought Fogler fell
Intentionally, and was instantly in an
uproar, grooming and Kissing, and
some of the more frenzied even MAX
ing threats against Fogler's life.
There were cries of Fake" Dirty
work" and Fraud" and the officials
could not stop the demonstration.
So expert have many of the riders
become in falling accidentally on
purpose" that the officials say they
cannot detect the sharp practice, and
must necessarily abide by the rules
in their decisions.
The so-called race has become a
farce in the opinion of many persons.
and 1t is thought likely that the at
tention of several city department
officials will be called to the danger
Gus conditions, SO that there will not
be a repetition OF the event next
year.
In many quarters there is a belief
that it is high time to call a halt on
an enterprise which furnishes the OPP
portunity for what-in thousands of
cases-amounts practically to a six
day debauch. Strong criticisms have
been made of what is regarded as a
low spirit of abandon that is cen at
the Garden.

1t is probable. says Harper's Week
ly, that the Department of Agricul-
ture will shortly undertake some ex-
periments in cinchona-growing, as il
is believed that 1t could be done with
great profit in Porto Rico, Hawaii
and the Gulf States. Alabama is
particularly adapted, both in soil and
in climate, to some varieties of Gin
coma. In South America cinchona
trees arc found over an area of great
diversity of soil and climate, a strip
of 100 miles wide and 1000 miles
long. Many trees are found growing
at attitudes of 1900 to 5000 feet
above sea level.
AS an indication of the probable
profits of such cultivation the returns
from the plantations conducted by
the government OF Madras, India,
may be cited. The gross receipts from
the plantations we're SS0.419, of
which $19,469 was net profit. The
crop of bark amounted to 294, 600
pounds. This bark was worked up
at the factory owned by the govern
ment. The cost of making the qui-
nine, including the value of the bark.
was $500 per pound, while the mar
ket price was $3.50 to 81 per pound
in bulk.

apartment in which to live, but who has not found anything within
her means" Next to her sits the owner of an apartment that Is to
vacated next week-just about the sort of apartment the lady is

Here sits a woman who dreams day and night about owning an
automobile. She bought some suburban lots a few years ago, but
didn't know "just how to go about selling them, OIL she would soon
own that automoblel The woman at her elbow is looking for a few
more desirable real estate investments.
