TANNING EASY
MARK, SAYS
HIS WIFE
Couldn't Refuse to Aid Those
in Need Reminds Her Of
False Friends.

HE was too generous for his own
good"
The above were the words of the
invalid wife of George NJ. Lanning, the
Florham Park postmaster, locked n
the Essex County Jail for uttering
forged checks and dipping a number
of banks.
George could never say nay to a
request for financial aid, and IL he has
fallen it was due to this fault alone.'
added Mrs. Lanning.
Regarding the statement Thai Lam
ming had spent thousands along New
York's great White Way, Mrs. tanning
declared:
II will never believe such a story, for
a better husband than George never
lived, and his care ana consideration
for myself and our family never waned.
My faith in my husband shall never
change, despite all such stories that
may be told
Under cover of a magazine, Lanning,
from his cell in the county Jail, has
sent a message to his wife. There were
marked, in a story that told of how a
man was ruined by false friends and
speculation, these words:
II have disgraced the best wife and
family God eve CAV to man." And
wherever there appeared in the story
references to false friends these were
also marked.
Lanning. up to August s, was a re-
spected and influential citizen of Flor
ham Park, where he was postmaster
and president of the Board of Educa-
ton.
Through the complaints already made
against Lanning by the banks in which
he laid down" his forged notes, a total
of $4,000 was gotten by him. Added
to this sum, tanning is said to have
flooded personal notes amounting to
$22. 900. and this total of $4,000 will
probably reach 500, 900.

WOMAN HAD AK?
THOUGHT TO HAVE STRUCK
DOWN MRS. SULLIVAN.
Latter's Condition Remains Critical, but
Operation May Save Life-Husband
Also Accused. +.

Mrs. Bridget Sullivan, who was as
saulted with an AK and several other
things at her home at Mulberry and
South Canal streets, yesterday at noon,
is still in st. James's Hospital in a
critical condition. The physicians there
may resort to trepanning. They do not
think that the woman will not live
unless this operation is performed.
This afternoon Acting Captain Caffrey
will have Robert Carroll, his wife and
daughter, Mrs. Helen boilers, and
Thomas Sullivan, husband of the in
jured woman, arraigned on a charge of
atrocious assault and battery. From
the statements obtained by Acting Cap
tain Caffrey and his men, Sullivan is
considered a party to the assault, which
was the most brutal that has been
called to. their attention in some time.
Carroll still insists that he has had
no part in the brawl, which may result
fatally to Mrs. Sullivan. The police
will arraign him on the strength of the
statement made by the woman to Act
ing Captain Caffrey. in which she de-
clared that the man struck her with a
large sugar bowl.
Caffrey is satisfied, he said today,
that the boilers woman struck the Sui
livan woman with the ak. He holds
her responsible for the assault.
All of those arrested yesterday after
noon as witnesses in the case are still
held at the First Precinct staten.
The condition of Mrs. Sullivan is so
grave that County Physician Elliott
went to ST. James's Hospital this morn
ing and questioned the woman as to
the manner in which she was assaulted.
Her statements to him were practically
the same as those made to Acting Cap
tain Caffrey.

WORK ON D.. /. AND W.
FOOT BRIDGE UNDER WAY.

Work ON the foot bridge across the D.,
L. and w. r. r. track depression. after
much delay. ow ng to the lack Of material,
was started this week. The foot bridge
has a 350-foot span and will run from
Nassau street to Orange street, breaking
the blockade caused by the depression,
which has formed a veritable Chinese wall
for pedestrians north of Orange street,
there being no way to cross the depression
between Nesbit street and High street,
making It necessary for people to make a
long detour.
The cost of construction Of the bridge is
being borne by the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western Company. which last Decem-
Der agreed TO build The bridge in accord
nnce with the plans submitted to the
Board Of Works by Acting Engineer VIII
lam II. Howell. of the city department Of
streets end highways. But the work has
been delayed since then by lack of ma
terial, causing much inconvenience to the
residents in that section of the city.

TYPHOID SUSPECT MILKS
cows AT INSANE ASYLUM.
Trenton Board of Health Finds That
Dairy Is Still a Filth Hole
at State Hospital.
at State Hospital.

TRENTON, Aug. 14.-Conditions of
filth surprising after the disclosures
which have been made at the State
Hospital for the Insane still exist at
the hospital. They were. disclosed by
an inspection made yesterday by DR.
Alton S. Fell, of the local Board OF
Health, and George w. Mcguire, food
inspector of the State.
One of the developments was the
fact that James Rogan, the gardener.
who died from typhoid fever last Sat
urday at the institution, had been
milking COWS for several days after he
became afflicted with the disease.
DR.. Fell states that many of the re-
concentrations made by him have not
yet been complied with. The inspec-
tion yesterday was confined principal
ly to the dairy. The officials have not
yet trapped the dairy; the COW barn
has not yet been drained according to
instructions given; and the COW yard
was not covered with a quarter of an
inch of lime. A mere handful was
thrown over the yard, according to
the physician.
When the first inspection was made
the warden was ordered to cease hav-
ing an inmate milk the cows. Yester-
day his same innate "a doing some
milking. The men who milk were or
dered to wear white suits, and out of
three working yesterday the inmate
was the only one with a white suit on.
Or. Fell says that the dairy was
swarming with flies, and asserts that
this condition should be stopped even
if a person had to devote his whole
time to il. The examination in general
disclosed startling conditions.
Mr.. Mcguire. will repoN the condi-
lions to the State Board of Health.
who will, in turn, report to the bcal
board of health. 1t is probable that
drastic action will be taken.
Or. Felty, who is In charge of the
institution, said there were no new
cases of typhoid at the institution.

LORD ASHTOWN HAS
A MARROW ESCAPE.
Bomb Skaters One Of the Walls Of
Apartment in Which He Slept
at His Country Lodge.

CLoNMEL, Ireland, Aug. 14-Lord Ash
town had a narrow escape from death at
his residence, Glenabiry Lodge, early this
morning. He was asleep in a room on
the ground floor when a terrific explosion
caused by a bomb shattered one of the
walls of his apartment and destroyed most
Of the furniture, but did not injure Lord
Ashtown, who only arrived at the lodge
last night.
The gamekeepers recently had trouble
with poachers on the estate, and the out
rage is attributed to the latter.
Lord Ashtown also had been threatened
by political agitators. At the recent Gal
way assizes a local politician, who is a
justice of the peace, was charged with
melting others to murder Lord Ashtown.
He was, however, acquitted.

That such a congress may be espe'

to those who have followed the prep

semblage questions which strike at
the roots OF war; and not even the

Limitation OF armaments seems 20
obtain much OF any backing aside
from our own government.

cause, therefore. must be considered

the most futile and ferocious of hui
man tollies"
