BLOHM BILL COMES
UP FOR FINAL VOTE

TRENTON, Mar. 11;-With the
Blohm "Open Sunday" bill for. the
benefit of the saloons on the calendar
for third reading and final passage.
the meeting of the assembly tonight
promises to be exceedingly interest
ing as 1t is anticipated that it will be
the source of considerable debate.
While the brewing and liquor in
terests are doing everything in their
power to have this bill enacted. the
fact that its passage even in the
house is exceedingly dubious has
tended to tone down popular inter-
est.
Assemblyman Hendrickson, of
Hudson, Morris of Sussex, Firth of
Warren, and Holcombe, of Hunter
don, have voiced their disapproval of
the bill and it would be necessary for
at most four of the republican as
semblymen to vote for the measure TO
insure its passage in the house.
Should the Blohm bill fail of passage
there will be introduced measure
that has been prepared by Senator
Silzer, of Middlesex, and which is in
effect a modification of the BISHOPS
law
Committee hearings on nu.e,. pra
important measures will occupy a
great deal of the attention of the
legislators this week. Probably the
most important of these is the hear

Insurance Fight.
That the insurance companies eff
fected will fight these bills to the bit
ter ends is assured as Richard V.
Lindabury. general counsel of the
Prudential has declared that many of
the provisions were Objectionable.
Committee hearings will also be
conducted on several of the corpora
tion and municipal corporation meas
ures of varying interest, while the
senate committee on miscellaneous
business will hold public hearing on
Senator Hendrickson's bill to give a
legal status to osteopathy physicians
This measure will be fought by the
physicians of the old schools and it is
expected that they will be out in
force to argue against its enactment

PUSH LABORATORY PLANS
Supplies for Hospital hnpr oyeneut
Have Been Ordered.

The committee in charge of the
work has ordered the necessary sup
plies and apparatae for the new lab
oratory which will be Located in the
city hospital for the use of the physi-
clans. The laboratory win be in the
basement of the hospital and, al
though the amount cleared by the
smoker at Hartmann's hotel two
weeks ago. will be insufficient to fit
up the laboratory completely, a fair
showing will be made and other
events are to be arranged by which
more money can be raised
Dir. w e. Ramsay, chairman of
the committee, is we'll pleased with
the work so far, and announces that
a number of donations in the way Of
supplies have been secured in the
past week. Subscriptions in moneg
are also being received ov the com

apparatus arrives, the laboratory
will be installed without further de-
lay.

Retirement Fund Bill.
Among the bills to be introduced
is a new state teachers retirement
fund bill which is being drafted by
the special committee appointed by
the new trustees of the fund appoint
ed at meeting in the state houss
several months ago. The trustees
were elected under an act of the last
legislature and the proposed bill Is q
further move for the reorganization
of the fund.
The bill Is not complete in all of its
details as yet but it will be revised
this afternoon and ready for intro
duction tonight. superintendent
Charles j. Baxter, of the State De-
partment of Public Instruction, re-
fused yesterday to make public its
provisions until it was ready for in
PRODUCTION. 1t Is understood h0wey-
er, that the bill will retain the feat
which makes it compulsory upon
ne teachers to join the fund
Another measure that is scheduled
to be introduced this week is the lo-
cal republican measure to deprive
the people of Trenton of the right to
vote on the question of raising the
salary of the mayor.
Ii is expected, that the divorce bill
drafted by the special commission
that attended the national uniform
divorce congress recently, will make
its appearance in the senate this
week.
With the immense amount of work
that the legislators have to dispose
of 1t will be practically impossible
for them to carry out their original
plan to adjourn about the middle of
this month
There was propositions during
the early part of the session to adj
journ a week from tonight, but the
plan has been abandoned. Several
other dates have been mentioned for
adjournment, among them being
March 22 and March %. but with the
insurance bills In and the prospects
of a prolonged fight before they are
finally disposed of, it seems not at all
unlikely that the session will extend
over until the middle Of April, not
withstanding the fact that the law
mill will be operated at top speed on
full or even overtime during the next
few weeks.

JEROME HAS
The CHANCE
HE DESIRES
Will EndeavOr TO Tear Down the
Evidence Given by Thaw's
Wife in Murder Trial
THAw ISSUES A STATEMENT

NEW YORK, Mar 11:-When the
murder trial of Harry X. Thaw open
ed this morning District Attorney
Jerome had an air of confidence about
him which gave the impression that
he was about to accomplish his main
purpose, which is to break down the
story told by Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw. 1t seems certain that the
ordeal is by no means over and that
Jerome is just beginning to get in his
most effective work.
NEW YORK, March 1l.--Harry Il.
Thaw has issued the following state
ment through his counsel. Dan 0'Reil-
ly:
Il wish to deny as emphatically as
possible the published report that my
sister the Countess of Yarmouth. is de-
sirous of bringing about a separation
between my NHfe and me at the CON
clusion of the trial. Perfect harmony
exists between my wife, my sister and
myself. as indeed between all the mem-
bers of my family Such Il thing as a
separation has never been and never
will be considered by me or any of my
relatives.
The Countess of Yarmouth is very
friendly with Mrs. Ii. X. Thaw and
holds her in the highest esteem.
GAS for myself. my love of my wife
is greater today than IT ever was be-
fore. If that is possible. ! hope that
this deniaA from me viii forever set ut
rest the absurd story of q possible es-
arrangement.
ut is peculiarly regrettable to Mrs.
Thaw and myself that such n story
should have emanated from the source
it did"
Thaw wrote the statement in his cell
and insisted that his counsel should
make il public. The sentence at the
end of the statement refers to Evelyn
Thaw's brother. Howard Nesbit. who
was credited with being responsible
for the yumor OF a separation.

with excited people. 1t did not take
long to learn of the cause. DIR. Ellis
was practically alone in the borough,
the other physicians being away, and
he had his hands fuD.
Just what caused the explosion
may never be known. Judging from
the appearance of what is left of the
boiler as it lay on the track where it
landed, it looked as if it nad been
red hot 1t is the belief of some that
either the engine was out of water or
that it had failed to flow or some
thing had happened to cause the iron
to become greatly overheated. The
boiler had the appearance of having
been burned out. The fact that riv-
cts were hot enough to set fire to car
pet in house 300 feet away lends
strength to this theory
Fritsche, the injured fireman, was
placed aboard train and hurried to
New Brunswick. Rev. Father Cation,
Of st. Peters r. G. Church, New
Brunswick, went to Wells Hospital
about o'clock to see the man who
was reported dying. He passed away
several hours later.
Wrecling crews were on the scene
early and by 8 o'clock this morning
the track was repaired.
