EXPECTS,OOO IN
HALLOWEEN
PARADE
Has Been
Eliminated Owing to Great
Number to Participate.

The special committee of the Newark
Lodge of Elks, having charge of the
arrangements for the Halloween cele-
bration, at their meeting last night at
the Elks' clubhouse in Green street,
found it necessary to change their plans
for the affair owing to the large num-
Der of entries and responses received
during the past week. 1t is now esti-
mated that more than 5000 will turn
out in costume and participate in the
parade.
One change vas made in the line of
march. 1t was originally intended to
march in Market street, from Broad to
the Court House and to c-ountermarch
back to Broad street, dismissing in
front of the City Hall. Owing to the
large number who have signihed their
intention of turning out it has been
found necessary to eliminate the coun-
termarching feature, and the parade
will dismiss at the Cour House.
The Woodmen of America will head
the seconS division with 100 mounted
men. These will be followed by twelve
degree teams In uniform. Over 500
Woodmen will be in line. Albert Schurr
will command the second division. His
aides will be Captain Timothy Edwards
and Major D. c. McA1lister.
The members of Marcus Ward Coun-
Gil, Jr. o. U. A. M, will turn out in q
body, and the Kearny a. C. will have
most of its members in line mounted.
Goodwill Council, Daughters OF Lib
erty, will nave several big floats in
line and will give tableaux. The
Tuscarora Canoe Club will also have
a float and ~seventy-five men in line.
The committee will meet every even
ing at the Elks' home from now on,
and a bureau of information has been
established at the home, where entry
blanks and any information may be
procured at any time. This bureau will
be open at all, times until the celebra-
ton.

slacken up a bit Is said to be the fact that
very few men are being hired now at the

drew up in front of the hotel where
they were to dine was a large poster
of the Democrats In the window Of the
store next door, side by side with that
of Mr.. Fort.
1t was still early when F1emington was
reached and arrangements had been made
for the candidate to visit som of the
factories TO get i'm touch with the men.
They also visited Fulper's Pottery and the
factory of the Voram Foundry and Manu-
featuring Company. These meetings were
the last of several of the kind held during
the day.
AT High Bridge, where the noon stop was
made, Mr.. Fort went through the plant OF
the Taylor Iron and Steel Company, one of
the Oldest foundries in the country, en-
ploying over 200 men. AS far as possible
all work was suspended for a quarter Of an
hour, while the men gathered in one of the
big machine rooms to listen to him talk.
Later in the afternoon the candidate called
on Lewis Taylor, the ~97-year-old honorary
vice-president of the company. He has
been in the factory since the seventeen
hundreds. The foundry turned out cannon
balls in the Revolution, and shells in the
Spanish War, and Mr.. Fort used these
facts as a text for his talk.
From High Bridge the party took 10
autos. The country passed through until
then was next to impossible for cars, and
there was not a great deal Of change in
its aspect further along. at Clinton, the
only stopping place on the route to Flem-

hgures in the campaign In this county any
more than 1t does In Cumberland County,
toured Monday. The people have their
interest divided between the proposition
that they be given ballot X again and
the subject of a reform administration.
The latter topic has proved particularly
interesting to the farmers, who turned out
in fairly satisfactory numbers all along the
route. Every denunciation of Dickinson
and Riker, whom the Gubernatorial candi-
date has got in the habit Of taking a
crack at six or eight times a day, ELECTED
hurrahs and broad-faced grins from the
rustics.

especially strong here is the fact that
there is no promise of recognition of a Pc

of Woodbury., asking that these machines
be taken away before the coming election.
About all the Democratic voters beiieve
no action will result from their pc
tition.
When Mr.. Katzenbaeh told them that
he believed the voting machine to be MOTH
ing but a device Of the Republican party
to perpetuate its rule they acted as though
he had exactly voiced their sentiments.
When the touring party reached Swedes-
boro in the afternoon the candidate was
taken to L~ippincott's Hall, where fully
800 persons had gathered. Mr.. Katzenbach
was introduced by ]. J. Davidson, an eX-
Assemblyman. The speech concerned po-
litical corruption at Trenton and Mr.. katz-
