LEFT FOR DEAD
WHEN HIT
BY CAR
But Physician on Car Re.
yiyed Victim Of Early
Morning Accident.

Believing that driver of a wagon
which was struck by a trolley car had
been killed, the crew carried the sup
posed dead body to one side of the
Plank Road, near the Hackensaclx
River, about o'clock this morning, and
covered it with one of the driver $
blankets.
The man might have died had it not
been for the fact that DIR. Lazare Ma
zare Weiss, of 104 West street, was a
passenger on the car. He discovered
that the man was only unconscious,
and after giving first aid managed to
revive the injured driver. He was able
to say that his name was r. c. Smith,
but nothing more could be understood.
The man said he did not want TO go
to hospital, and Smith was removed
to his home at SO Plane street, this city.
DR.. Weiss discovered that his left arm
was fractured, and that the man was
suffering from the shock.
While the number of the car is not
known, DIR. Weiss said that the con-
ductor in charge WAS No. 3,94b. The
car was well filled with people, and
many were indignant at the action of
the conductor and motorman, while all
had word of praise for DR.. Weiss.

Earlier in the day the prosecution

Ernest Zwahalen, a giant molder OF
Plaza Park, a West Burlington suburb,
had a terrific fight with two highway

In many ways the attack is similar to
that CT which the aged grocer was a

Driver Pluckily Sticks to
Post and Is Injured.
Horse BleedS to Death.

Ferda Oleskey % years old, of 27S
Bank street, driver in the employ of
the United Mattress Company, had a
narrow escape from serious injury, and
perhaps loss of life, at noon today
when tho horse attached to his wagon,
which was heavily laden with mat
tresses, SHE'D at an automobile in Bank
street and dashed wildly down Breint-
nall place to Market street and down
the steep incline opposite the Court
House.
Near the junction of Market street
and Springfield avenue the horse coll
lided with one of the Public Service
Corporation repair wagons. The force
of the collision turned the wagon COM
pletely around, and 1t came in con-
tace with an east-bound Bank and
Warren street car.
Oleskey held on to the reins until the
vehicle on which he was seated struck
the car. He was thrown from his seat
to the pavement and pulled from under
meath the wheels by several men who
had followed up the runaway. He was
injured about the back, head and body,
and removed to his home at his own re-
quest in the First Precinct police sta
ton ambulance.
The horse was badly injured, and part
of his body was penetrated by the
broken shaft. He slowly bled to death

PLAINFIELD. Nov. 29.-Struck by a

formerly of this city and nephew of
the late Mayor william A. M. Mack,
of Elizabeth, was instantly killed

the late John Mack who, by very
striking coincidence, was killed by a

most the same spot. He was head
chemist for the Taylor Iron Works, at
High Bridge, and lived at Glen Gard
ner with his mother and sister. He
was a brother of William Mack, man.
ager of the portable department of the
Vacuum Cleaner Company, of New

His uncle. Mayor Mack. was the
popular Mayor of Elizabeth some
years ago, whom the people honored
by statue In the park, and his cousin,
Roy l.. Mack, is at present an alder
man at the Union County seat.
Mr.. Mack was struck by piece of
iron which projected from a passing
locomotive as he was walking along
the side of the track The iron struck
him in the temple, killing him in
stantly.

BANKS ARE
INCREASING
CIRCULATION
Plenty Of Currency on Hand
Now to Meet Money
Demands.
SUBSCRIPTIONS CLOSE
Federal Trust Has Been Receiv.
ing Them for the Three Per
Cent. Government Ger
tificates--Confidence
Restored.

The Federal Trust Company's offer
of subscriptions to the 3 per cent. gov
eminent certificates of Indebtedness
closed today. although no official COM
munication had been received by the
company up until noon today. From 81
statement made by one of the officials
there was no rush to secure the benefits
of these subscriptions, but every day
applications have been received. Only
last Wednesday a check was sent to
Washington by the banking officials
to secure a subscription, but this was
returned today, and the Federal Trust
people take this as indicative OF the
governments ending of the offer.
According to Secretary Cortelyou's
statement today, many took advantage
of the governments offer: He said:
lowing to the large amount of SUBJ
scriptions received, the Secretary of the
Treasury announces that the subscrip-
ton to the 3 per cent certificates of
indebtedness of the act of June 13, 1888.
invited by the circular of November is,
1907. Is closed, and that no subscription
received after the close of business on
the 9th instant will be considered.
THE several assistant treasurers of
the United States have been instructed
not to accept any further orders.
1.-THE decided Improvement in busi-
ness conditions throughout the country
makes it quite possible that the Secre-
tary will not extend his allotments
further than those already made"
yAs q further evidence that confidence
has been restored throughout The
financial world, and particularly IN
banking CIRCLES, nearly every national
bank in the country has enlarged its
currency output.
Here in Newark the national banks
have almost doubled their output of
currency. In the Essex County Ma
tional Bank, which heretofore has car
ried $150,0O0 daily to meet the demands
of patrons, this output has been in
creased TO $250,00
In speaking of this matter today, one
of the bank officers said:
I'VE have put $75,000 extra at our
hands, and today are using this
amount over our counters for pay rolls.
Other banks have added materially to
their currency on hand, and now 1t
seems that the recent money scare is
over. There will be no further hoard
ing of money, if there was any, by
any of the Newark banks"
While the banking officials in this
city are not parading their various in
creases in currency, they are notifying
their depositors as the latter appear
at their banks to transact business,
that steps have been already COM
pleted to meet any further money
stringency that might arise.

HODCARRIER.
PREACHER A
BIGAMlST?
Eddie Norman Smith Says
Husband, James Studiven,
Has Mormon Tendencies.

Charged with being bigamist
James Studiven. a negro minister who
carried the nod and also sold flowers
as side line, was arraigned in the
Fourth Precinct Police Court yesterday
and held in default OF $1,000 bail to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
The complainant in the case is ed
die Norman Smith, who produced her
marriage certificate In court to show
that she was married to Studiven in
Philadelphia in June, 1906 She also
produced certified copy of a second
marriage certificate which she received
from City Clerk Connolly, of this city.
which purported to show that the de-
fendant married Edna Scott Jackson
in this city October q, the same year.
The Rev. Henry ]. Lochlin, negro
minister, performed the latter cere-
mony.
The complainant stated that for a
time after their marriage they lived
with Studiven's mother in West Phila-
delphia, and that her hubby preached
to the wicked and prayed that they
might be saved.
Studiven made a practise OF leaving
his bride and coming to this city, and
1t was on one of these trips, it Is al
legged, that he took unto himself
second wife. He separated from wife
No. on Christmas Eve last, and Mrs.
Smith-Studiven went to her folks in
Seybold, N. c., and remained there for
some time. The climate there was sat-
isfactory and she was perfectly con-
tented until one day she received a
letter from her brother-in-law, Special
Policeman Scott, who lives at Is Ar
lington street, this city, and it con-
taineds a newspaper clipping with an
account of the Studiven-J j Jackson we'd
ding. She packed her belongings and
returned to this city. For a time she
had difficulty in arranging matters, but
with the assistance of Mr.. Scott she
finally managed to secure the neces-
sary data and then lodged her COM
plant.
Studiven was taken into custody
Wednesday evening at 12S Somerset
street by Plainclothesmen Kaas and
Sebold.
When Door1nan Slowey spied Studi-
ven he inquired, isn't your right name
Bob Armstrong and amt you the old
negro champion pugilistT'

piled the prisoner, and prize fighting
is in my line"
Special Policeman Scott contradicted
the story.

VETERANS TO
ASK QUARTERS
FROM CITY
To Petition Council Com
mittee Tonight for Rooms
in Municipal Building.

When the public buildings COMMITTEES
committee representing the different
posts of the G.. A. r. will be present TO
repeat their request that a. room In the
City Hall be set aside for their meet
ings, as their fast diminishing member
ship makes 1t impossible for them to
bear the expense Of hiring quarters.
The veterans have heard that the
large room in the Board of Education
quarters, which has been used for the
meeting of the board, will be vacant
after the small board supersedes the
present elective body. and they will re-
quest the committee to bring this mat
ter to the attention of the Common
Council at the meeting on December 6.
They wish to be allowed to have perTna-
nent quarters where all the posts can
combine, and will, if allowed, decorate
the room with the flags, emblems and
paraphernalia.
While tho committee will listen to
the delegation and bring the matter
to the attention of the Council. II is
pointed out that the Council will have
no right to give permanent quarters
TO the veterans in a. municipal build
ing. The Council would have the power
to allow the veterans or any other or
ganization to hold a convention in the
hall or allow them to meet temporarily,
but it's power is limited to that.
The veterans viii state that in
Albany and some Western cities rooms
are set aside in the public buildings as
permanent meeting places for the
members % the G.. A. r.
Another matter that viii be brought
to the attention of the committee win
be the need of repairs to the windows
in the various departments in the hall.
Since the cold weather several COM
plants have been received by the COM
mittee that the icy winds found their
way through the window frames, and
in number of cases the committee
has ordered the substitution Of a patent
window fastener which hermetically
seals the window.

BROWNE BOY
FLED FROM
HIS FATHER
Lad Over Whom Parents
Fought Ran Away From
Chancery Court Room.

In an effort to escape from his
father,sto whose custody he was given
by Vice-Chancellor Stevens, after a
sensational trial, the 10-year-old son of
Henry Russell browne brought about
an exciting chase through four floors
of the Prudential building today short
ly before the noon tour. The chase
began on the sixth floor and only ended
after outsiders had interfered and
caught the son on the second floor.
Even then the son kicked and scram-
bled and shouted defiance to his father
and called for his mother from whom
he had just been separated by the or
der of the Vice Chancellor.
The father and mother. Mrs. Louise
Forsyth browne, have been fighting in
the courts for the custody of the boy,
who has been living with Mrs. browne,
and last Wednesday the parties were
ordered to be in the Vice Chancellor 8
court this morning, where the father
was to give a $4,000 bond for the
safety of the boy pending divorce
suit which has been instituted by him
When the details were fulfilled today,
the boy had to be led into the Vice
Chancellor's private room, while Mrs.
browne followed. The mother and son
sat down and both shed tears until it
was time for parting. Mrs. browne
then walked out into the long corridor
and the boy chung to her dress.
"I will not leave mother!" shouted
the boy
Mrs. browne tried to console the lit
tie fellow by telling him that they
would be together soon, but young
browne would not be consoled.
Mrs. browne then by force tore the arms
of her boy from her as the lads father put
in his appearance and took him in charge.
The son, at the sight of his father kicked
at his parent and ordered him away.
II will not go to New York. and II
want my mamma were heard through the
halls as lawyers and clerks formed
crowd of curious spectators.
You have told lies on mamma" shouted
the boy, and all the while the father was
trying to gain the good will of his son.
Finally while the upsuspecting father
was trying to cool the boys anger, young
browne took advantage of an opportunity
and scampered off through the hall and
down the stairs toward the street
The father, with others, made after him,
but the latter was too quick and before
the father had reached the fifth floor,
young browne was on the third. There
