.ETHR o NE D
AS BOSS BY
DICKINSON
Deals to Blow YerdOn, of
HObOken- Number Are Ap-
prehenSive in Hudson.
Especial to the Evening start

JERSEY CITY, Nov. 21.-The Hudson
County Executive Committee met last
night in the Dickinson Club house. Col
onel Samuel Dickinson was on hand early.
He looked stern. He did not mix with
the executive committeeman as they came
in and sat around. In his little private
room he consulted with his lieutenants.
The turing down of William P. verdon
as Republican leader of Hoboken, was set
tied. He is the main supporter Of John
Rotterdam in the county committee as
he would control the new Hoboken dele
cation to the county committee next Janu-
airy if ~unopposed.
When yerdon and his fellow commit
teemeli from Hoboken entered the club
house Verdcn was to the audi
euce with the colonel. There was a long
talk ir private, n it was alleged that
Colonel Dickinson charged Verdon with
being prime mover in a conspiracy to de-
throne him and establish Rotterdam as
county leader.
emerged from the colonel's room, but did
not openly express his feelings. He sat at
the meeting of the executive committe Of
the county as If nothing had happened.
Colonel Dickinson followed his interview
with Verdon with summary measures.
Through the Followers OF Ut. JoSepn r. ".
Stack and those of Joseph j. Guisto. of the
County Board of Taxation, he removed
verdon from the Hoboken leadership. This
was done in Hoboken at a meeting of the
city committee.
Today the friends of County Clerk
Rotterdam are apprehensive of where the
colonel will next strike. Most of the fol-
lowers of the County Clerk who are al
legged to have been in a plot to turn down
the colonel by the election of Rotterdam
county committeeman at the party pri-
maries next month have taken to cover
until the County Clerk comes home from
a hunting trip.
Some party leaders in Jersey City are
said to be on the anxious seat. They are
divided between their friendship and agree
ment with Rotterdam and they fear that
the colonel is on top again and will pro-
coed to punish all who do not fall In line
behind him.
The county executive committee arranged
last night for the holding of the primaries,
at which county committeeman will be
elected, next month. 1t is said that the
battle between Colonel Dickinson and the
County Clerk will be decided at the pri-
maries, unless Rotterdam yields to his
political mentor before that time.

FACTORIES THROUGHOUT
CONNECTICUT ALL BUSY.
Let-Up in Business Activity on Account
of Financial Furry Has Passed
Awav

NEW HAVEN. Nov. 21.-General inquiry
throughout the industrial sections of this
State points co~nclusively to the fact that
whatever depression was brought about by
the recent financial furry has practically
passed away and manufacturing establish
ments, which temporarily curtailed produce
ton or reduced the time schedule of opera
tiVes, are now resuming on very nearly
the same scale as existed for many months
prior to the early part of October, allow
ance being made for the customary cur
tailment of business in the fail due to in
ventories or between-season change in
character of goods.
The metal business, which felt the effect
of uncertainty in the price of copper and
which showed a falling off before the mon
etary strlngency. is resuming activity
slowly, but continually upward. The re-
sumption of operations of plants in Bridge
port. which were obliged to curtail because
of money conditions solely, is indicative Of
the general trend of business elsewhere.
Reports In detail from the textile indus
tries. more particularly in the eastern and
northern parts of the State, show that re-
cent conditions had little effect there, as
orders were In hand for cotton goods and
woolens extending through many months.

tations. The proceeds of the entertain

Carrie Rofin, Miss Annabel Freder-
icks. Miss Louise Esseg. Miss Ethel
Fredericks and Frank Essig. Vocal
numbers were given by Miss Gertrude
Wright. Miss Vera Coggins and Miss
Catharine Robinson, and Miss Buela

years, was warmly applauded for her
pleasing rendition Of an etude for vio-
lin. She was obliged to play a second
time.
A substantial sum was realized.

OF II YEARS
AGO
Officers al HandIey
Banquet Too Modern
to Have Any.

The banquet feast at the First Regi-
ment Armory on Sussex avenue last
night, ike the one of Belshazzar, had
its handwriting on the wall, and those
who gathered around the festive board,
while not speaking right out "at meet
ing acted as if they read some signs.
While the press of this city was not
asked to attend the affair, officers who
attended were not bashful this morn
ing telling of the narrow escape some
officers higher up had in getting a pub
lie tongue-thrashing from men who are
not afraid of dogs of war when they
are on their own stamping ground.
Several times. 1t Is said. those who
were down for speeches came near
crossing the firing line and might today
be in the guard house for the crime of
lese majestic.
The banquet itself was all that such
affairs are generally. Colonel Freeman
sat at the head of table with the guest
of the evening, former Colonel George
Handley, at his right. while a bunch of
officers gathered around the table and
talked of passing topics.
Captain Orrin e.. Runyon, of Com
pany D, when called upon to say some

ago the custom was" when he was
interrupted by a merry outburst of loud
laughter that shocked him, but which
may have kept him out of the guard
house.
Captain Charles j. Allen, of Company
M, was asked to serve up a literary
treat but was unable to do SO owing,
as he is quoted, to the fact that twen-
ty-seven years ago such a thing as
literary effort would have been met
with sudden onslaught, in which kitchen
utensils would nave been the principal
weapons Although the captain was
proceeding to render a m-agniloquent
literary effort, the beefsteak choked
some of the diners and their compan-
ions had to interrupt the captain.
Adjutant-Gene r. Heber BRENT
nall, who was one of the b~anqueters,
strived to recall customs of twenty
seven years ago." but his memory
failed him.
It was then decided to have some
songs of twenty-seven years ago, but
when Colonel Freeman called OF Lieu
tenant Styles, of Company G. and Lieu
tenant Edwards, of Company M, they
said they were too up-to-date to re-
call songs of twenty-seven years ago,
but made hits in modern rendition.
Colonel Handley, the guest Of the
night. lavished praise on the officers,
and said thai be did not feel the same
since he left the regiment. to which
he had been attached more than
twenty-seven years.
Several times, it Is said. several OF
the officers skated on skin ice when
they referred to their rights as Amer
lean citizens and their capacity Of
Judgment concerning proper candi-
dates for the Offices without any n
struetions from Cars.

Colonel George P. Olcott, OF Carleton
street, East Orange, who is very well
known In the Oranges, had a narrow es-
cape from being killed by an express train
In front Of the Yonkers, N. Y. station Of
the New York Central Railroad Tuesday
night. He was hit by the pilot of the
locomotive. which was running at a fast
speed and thrown some distance along the
platform.
Those who were witnesses Of the acct
dent thought that the colonel had been
instantly killed. Several of the railroad
employees ran to his aid and were sur
prised to find that he was alive and able
to speak.
A hurry call was sent for an ambulance
and the colonel was taken to the Yonkers
Hospital, where 1t was found tina his
only injury was one broken rib in his left
side. He was bruised about the body and
legs but not seriously.
1t Is expected that he will be able to
be taken TO his home tomorrow.
Colonel Olcott has the contract for a new
building at Mount st. Vincent's Academy,
at Yonkers, and about 6 o'clock Tuesday
night attempted to board a local train at
Yonkers station. He evidently did not see
the express train. which was rushing into
the station, or miscalcuIated the distance.
A number of people on the platform
shouted to him to look out, but he did not
hear the warnings until the express train
was almost on top of him and then he tried
to retrace his steps, but before he got out
of harms way the locomotive hit him a
glancing blow.
Colonel olcott is one Of the most promi-
nent Republicans In the State. He was
marshall Of the centennial parade In the
Oranges last Juns.

Face Situation Peculiar,
but Not Really Funny.

If m e~nterprising citizen of this
city, county or State finds that he has
any use for the new Court House, the
county Jail or the County Insane Asy-
lum. maybe he can get the same by at
tending the sale of property on Deem

Comptroller j. Harry Bachelor will Of
fer to the highest bidders the public
buildings mentioned, together with
property belonging to every railroad
running through the city, for unpaid
taxes for 1906. under the tax act of
1903.
Mr.. Bachelor today advertises the
county buildings in the Newark news
papers for the following amounts, rep
resenting a tax rate of S1,72 on each
500 of ~ratables: Essex County Hospi-
tai for the Insane, 403 to 433 South Or
ange avenue, 81. 3S3.9 80; Court House, 466
to 4s0 High street, $4,S50; Essex County
jail, 271 to 285 New street, $358.44.
If the Board of Freeholders do not
scrape the money. together with the
interest. before December 20, the tax
claims will be sold to the highest bid
ders, and, in accordance with the law,

session of the building, and may evict
all occupants left by former owners.
The occupants of the Jail are wait
ing with ill-concealed impatience, ac-
cording to Warden Steadman, for the
county hotel to be sold, and many of
them look upon their possible eviction
from winter quarters with consterna-
ton.
Under the law the buildings will
cease to belong to the county after the
sale. and Essex County will have the
unique distinction of being without the
county buildings mentioned.
The Board of Freeholders, as the
official county body, is in charge of the
buildings, and may, if the buildings
are sold, buy them back. by purchasing
the tax claims and paying the percent
age and other i~ncidentals.

added that the courts recognize trees as
an asset to the property on or In front OF
which they stand. This real estate value
of trees has been confirmed by numerous
court decisions. In many cases the courts
have decided that the destruction of a
street shade tree detracted from the value
of the abutter's property to the amount OF
$50, $500. $500. In cases where several trees
fronting the same property have been de-
stroyed the courts rave awarded $50 to
$500 per tree to the abutter.
IF realty value are thus enhanced by
trees, how is 1t inequitable or arbitrary
to assess the tract in front Of which the
trees are planted? 1t should be noted, in
closing, that the assessment Is small lin
1907 it ranges from $1.67 to 2.76), and
that once paid it never recurs; it covers
forever the cost to the abutter, not alone
of the tree and its planting, but also OF
the systematic annual care bestowed on
the tree by the CITY,"
