POLL OFFICERS
GAVE MARKED
BALLOTS
Sheriff SOmmer Investi-
eating Charges Of Illegal
Work

Sheriff Frank IT. Sommer is investi
eating the alleged Illegal acts of an
election officer In the first district of
the Second Ward on Tuesday. He has
received several reports to the effect
that one Of the officers In that district
gave out marked ballots to voters as
they stepped up to receive their ball
lots at the primary elections.
The ballots. 1t is said, had the name
of Frank Hunt, candidate for delegate
to the Republican State Convention
pledged to Sheriff Sommer, scratched
out. The Colby delegates to the county
convention and the Colby county COM
mittee candidate were also scratched.
In fact, the ballots as prepared and
handed out by the election officer as
claimed, were strictly Regular ball
lots.
The Colbyites were beaten in the dis
triet and Sheriff Sommer's delegate to
the State convention was showed un-
der.
Complaints of like actions by cleo
tion officers in other districts, both in
the city and outside, have been made
to the Sheriff. He viii present the evil
dence to the Prosecutor with the de-
mand that the Grand Jury be requested
to act in the matter.

In force The camp Of the latter was
destroyed by bombardment, and the enemy
was put to flight, leaving many dead on

The attack was carefully planned and
was based largely on the observation Of the

The allied army, which was divided into
two columns, left the camp at o'clock in
the morning leaving several companies Of
Infantry to defend the base at Casablanea
The first column was composed of four
companies of regular infantry, several COM

tillery and all the cavalry. The second
column consisted OF six companies Of infan-
try and a battery of artillery.

Taddert when the fog lifted and disclosed
several large bands OF the enemy The
allies then charged several large bands of
the enemy at the point of the bayonet and
although the Moors resisted with their old
time courage, they We're finally compelled
to retreat.
After the bombardment Of Taddert by
the French artillery, as well as by the
guns of the French cruiser Gloire which

KEEPING UP
FAST CLIP
Is Expected at Sandy Hook
at 5 O'clock Tomorrow
Morning.

HALIFAX, N. s., Sept. ia wire
less message from Sable Island says
the Cunard liner Lusitania passed
there about o'clock this morning, the
exact time not being obtainable.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE Titanic
turbine steamer Lusitania, of the
Cunard line, entered today on the final
stretch of her maiden voyage, which
may break all transatlantic records.
The newest greyhound of the sea
was reported 15O miles east of Sable
Island at 11:20 last night, and no fur
ther reports of her may be received
until tonight, when she will enter the
Nantucket wireless zone.
With 800 miles to be sailed at 11:20
o'clock last night, the Lusitania will
have to make "a knots or better until
Sandy Hook light vessel is passed in
order to excel the record of 23:15 knots
held by the Deutschland, of the Ham
urg-American line.
The Lusitania will have fair
weather for her last days run, and
every ounce of her propulsive power
will be used to make up the time lost
in the fogs off the Grand Banks. Driven
at her top speed, the giant Cunarder
may be expected at the lightship short
ly before Z o'clock Friday morning
making the time for the trip a shade
under five days.
Wireless dispatches from the Lusi-
tania show that the ship is running
smoothly and that her machinery has
been shaken down SO that her run
from Sable Island to this port can be
made at her highest speed. Officials
of the Cunard line planned to have the
Lusitania at the end Of the ocean rae
ing lane at 5 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing, and despite the fogs they believe
she will be found at the lightship near
that time.
While the Lusitania Is expected at
the gateway of the port at sunrise to-
she will not slip through the
Narrows until several hours later,
when the tide serves full in the
Ambrose Channel. The Lusitania will
be the second ocean liner to enter the
port through the new fairway.
The Lusitania has negotiated the
rough seas, which she encountered on
her voyage with no difficulty, and only
a score of her 5000 passengers have
suffered any indisposition.

The Rev. George S. Hall, pastor of
the Wickliffe Presbyterian Church.
died yesterday afternoon. The min
lister was stricken with apoplexy Tues
day night. Mr.. Hall had just returned
from his vacation, having been away
month, and was apparently in ro-
bust health upon his return. About
midnight on Tuesday he complained of
feeling i'll. and a physician who lives
across the street was called. The con-
dition of the clergyman grew gradually
worse, and the physician stayed with
him nearly all night.
The Rev. Mr.. Hall was born in Eng
land nearly fifty-nine years ago, and
had been in the United States about
sixteen years. His first pastorate in
this country was in California. where
he remained for five years, when he
received a call from a church at
Howells, Orange County, N. Y. He
spent five years there and was called
to Newark six years ago.
Overwork is thought to have been
responsible for the minister's break
down. He Is survived by a wife and
liiiCG lWO SOlio anu a dduBL-
ter.
The Rev. Mr. Hall was a prominent
Mason, having joined the organization
in England. About a month ago he
was urged by many of his parishioners
to take a vacation, as he had been
working hard ever since he took charge
of the church in looking after the spir-
itual and material interests of his pa
rishioners. He was an indefatigable
laborer and has done much for the
church.
He was educated in England, and
took his final degree at Oxford Uniyer-
sity, where he was a student in the
theological school.
His death was so sudden that the
trustees of the church have not as yet
had time to take any action. but win
probably do so at special meeting.
The funeral will be held at 2:30
o'clock Saturday afternoon.
Services will be conducted at the
Wickliffe Church parsonage, 109 Thir-
teenth avenue Interment will be in the
Rosedale and Linden Cemetery.

passengers.
Altschuler, a ruddy, smoothfaced
Russian, who stands feet inches in
his high-heeled shoes, a cello player Of
note, was the interesting feature of a
rather tempestuous trip. The little man
insisted on sleeping out on deck in all
sorts of weather.
Wrapping himself in a blanket, the
musician at bedtime would go to a
the deck, would sleep all night. leaving
a call for six in the morning.
A few nights ago he appeared at the
companionway with his favorite in
strument, the cello, which he~borrowed
from one of the ships musicians. He
played several selections. Women
crowded about him. They were so
carried away by his playing that they
almost mobbed him in their efforts to
shake his hand. kiss and hug him.
Last night a regular concert was
given, the little Russian directing. He
again played several solos and the
demonstration of the previous night
again took place. He comes here to
play at Carnegie Music Hall.
Other passengers were Thomas M.
Osborne, former Mayor of Auburn. who
has been abroad on a several months
touring expedition. He was accom-
panied by his two sons.

TRENTON, Sept. l2.-Only Commit
teemen Hahn and Van Blarcom were
In attendance when the Hahn investi-
cation was resumed late this morning.
William O'Bren, of Red Bank, was
first put on the stand. He testified to
being the sub-contractor for tEe plumb
ing at the Railway Reformatory, Prior
and Brock being the contractors. Wit
ness swore that his bid covered placing
in the institution the Pauly heating
system. The plans showed that the
Pauly heating system was designated
as the one only to be installed.
Mr.. o'Brien testified that Re was
compelled to add $1,000 to the heating
plans because Of the designated Pauly
system. The bulk of this morey was
for royalty. Witness testified that the
system really cost $4,000, the difference
between the latter figue and $1,000 be-
ing his profit on that feature on the job.
The full price for the heating job was
S23, 900.
After the witness had testified that
Mr.. Hines represented the State as
boss for the job, he testified that he
placed the Train system of heating in
the Catholic Children's Home at Hope

gave as his opinion that there was no
need of designating the Pauly system
when bids for heating were asked.

Halstead's Chances Hopeless.

One of the closest primary fights that
hes occurred In recent years in the Re

Ninth Ward by a victory for the Regular.
Edward Sohoen. the Regular candidate for

1t was not until today that the result
of the fight was positively known, and
even now the exact figures in the School

cannot win.

H. M. BARRETT
TO PROBE FOR
SENATE
Newark Lawyer Accepts and
Is in Conference With
Chairman Bradley.
Lspeoia, to the Evening star.1

TRENTON, Sept 12.-Halsey M.
Barrett, the lawyer. of Newark. has
accepted the position of counsel to the
State Senate investigating committee,
of which Senator Bradley is chairman.
The announcement was made by
Chairman Bradley this afternoon. Mr..
Bradley declared today that there
would be no further delay in getting
to work. The probe will begin in Hud-
son.
Mr. Barrett is in Trenton today. It is
the assumption that he and Senator Brad
ley are in conference over the plans ard
scope the investigation shall take.
Mr.. Barrett is a lawyer of conceded
ability, and he is one Of the cleverest and
shrewdest cross-examiners in the State.
He is a man Of absolute integrity. and
his reputation forbids even the suggestion
that political influence will have any con-
slderation in the work he may have in
hand.
1t is probable that one Of the first mat
ters Of consequence to be investigated by
the committee will be the Freehoder
situation in Hudson County.
Mr.. Barrett is lifelong Republican
and lives in Bloomfield, where he has in
times past taken an active part in the
several nnexation-to- Newark PROPOSE
tions which have from time to time agi-
tated that community.
