Gustav Klingenstein, in Speech,
Says Mud- Slinging Drove
Judge to Suicide.
SPEAKERS RAKE SHERIFF'S
OFFICE, FORE AND AFT
Rising Vote of Sympathy Taken
for Family Of Dead
Magistrate.

That Under-Sheriff Charles M. Mason's
attacks were responsible for the death
of Judge Howell, whose tragic suicide
Saturday shocked the community, was
tho g1st of several impassioned speeches
delivered before a large crowd in the
new Turn Hall. in upper William stree,
yesterday afternoon, where the Liberal
Citizens League held one of It's most
impressive rallies Of the season. Be-
fore the meeting dispersed the memory
of the late Judge was honored by a
rising vote Of sympathy for his be-
rsaved family.
George Hermann, one Of the candi-
dates for the assembly, made a fiery
attack upon the under-sheriff and
raked his methods fore and aft, while
Gustav Klingenstein, of Jersey City,
one Of the prominent members of the
German-American Central Society, was
also unsparing in his denunciation of
ud-slinging.
After Vice-President Christian Wild
mann. who presided, had introduced
Mr.. Hermann, that speaker first took
a. fling at Senator Colby. Then he be-
gan his attack on the sheriff's office.
That Office" said he, "has wasted
the money Of the taxpayers during a
so-called anti-vice crusade, which only
served the purpose of providing q
glorious two years of luxury for the
sheriff's men.
"Mason's attacks were mean and con-
temptible, and 1t Is not every man that
is strong enough to defy such attacks"
Another speaker was Franz j.. Sturn,
also on the assembly ticket. He said
that the so-called reforms ourtailed
personal liberty and promised that. If
elected, he would do all in his power
to secure the passage Of liberal laws.

several minutes, this magnificent re-
Jersey is all right. You know a good
thing when you see it."
The nominee spoke with great effort
and his voice was so husky that he
could not be heard distinctly in the
upper galleries.
The great audience crowding every
inch of loor space, was full Of en-
thusiasm and applauded on slight
provocation.
"I haven't the voice, I haven't the
strength to make a political speech
said the big nominee, but he gave a
pretty good imitation despite his state
ment of inability. He made much the
same tariff speech as at Newark.
In discussing his views on the differ
ence between a Democratic and a Re-
publican panic. Mr.. Taft asked. How
shall we restore confidence now?"
"By the election of Taft" shouted a
man in the second row from the stage.
"You go to the head of the class" the
nominee called back. pointing to the
man who had 'butted" in.
The Presidential aspirant ~eulogized
Roosevelt in his Trenton speech after
reviewing the present administration.
he said:
$50 that it's not too much to say that
not in the history of the world has any
monarch, as President or national
leader, done as much for the peace OF
the world as this same Theodore Roose-
welt, whom Mr.. Bryan had pictured as
a militant dictator with a chip on his
shoulder"

TAFT DELIGHTED WITH
RECEPTION IN JERSEY

Mr. Taft said:
of the most inspiring of my campaign,
1 am delighted with the reception given
me as the candidate for President. !
feel sure that New Jersey will main
tain her place In the Republican
column"
State Chairman Murphy said of the
trip when he surveyed the great throng
at New Brunswick:
'This trip of Judge Taft's has GER
tainly been the best thing In h cam
paign in New Jersey. 1t has disclosed
the interest of the people in his election
as nothing else could have done, and
makes certainty doubly sure"
The gathering about The stand in
George street, near the station, was
said to be the greatest in that old city's
history. Rutgers Colleges whole under
graduate body was there, with cheer
leaders in charge. The demonstration
lasted five minutes before County Com
mittee Chairman Richard HI. Wilson
could make himself heard.
az wish one of those Rutgers boys
would loan me his voice." said Mr.. Taft.
He paid tribute to Rutgers as the
alma mater of Justice Bradley and the
late vice-President Hobart. Taft's voice
was by this time very bad. and all his
speeches were interrupted by coughing.
The college boys gave him a Bow
wow-wow'' yell and "Good-by, Bill"
I'D like to make a political speech,
out the crowd is so large 1 couldn't
begin to make myself heard" said the
nominee In concluding his New Bruins
wick address. "Then, too, my voice is
so bad, you would think l was trying
to sing an opera instead of making
q speech"
Mr.. Taft made the f1imsy platform
tremble as he mounted it. He was
persuaded to step onto a chair. A he
made a gesture he almost lost his foot
ing in the smooth chair bottom. His
sense of humor never deserts him, and
clutching at those about him, he ex-
claimed in conversational tone: This
is ticklish, but the wicked aver stand
in slippery places"
Between New Brunswick and Tren-
ton luncheon was served In Mr.. Taft's
private car. Those at luncheon were
Mr.. Taft, former Governor Murphy,
Senators Kean and Briggs, Congress-
man Fowler, Senator William Alden
Smith, of Michigan; DR.. ]. ]. Richard
son, Of Washington, who constantly
treats the nominees throat, and Colonel
d. M. Ramsdell, sergeant-at-arms of

that If promises were all that organized
labor wanted, the Democratic party
should get support.
He then told of the enactment by the
Republican party of the employers la
bility and other labor reform bills.
Mr.. Taft said:
II say to you that the tremendous
growth of labor unions. their increased
usefulness to their members. theirsuse-
fulness in society in bringing about
peaceful trade agreements are founded
on abiding by the law as l laid 1t down
in the Arthur case and In other cases.
Concerning the famous Phelan case,
Mr.. Taft said:
"Mr. Debs, against whom l am rum
ming for the presidency, was the head
of the American Railway Union. He
wanted to keep babies from getting
their milk. to prevent people from trav-
cling, to tie up the railroads of the coun-
try because Mr.. Pullman, in Pullman,
Ill.,. didn't pay his employees what
Debs thought he ought to-"
He said that he ser for Phelan, who
was sent to tie up the railroads. Phe-
Ian denied that he violated the laws.
But the evidence was overwhelming
against him." the ex-Ohio federal judge
and present presidential nominee de-
clared, despite his statemnt that he
was inspecting the railway unions
charitable Institutions.
Heads were broken and Phelan kept
up his activity in bringing about disor-
der. I gave him a fair trial, covering
two weeks, and then sent him to Jail, as
he richly deserved. 1 have no apology
to make"

H. Hitchcock, of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, today to a reporter
for THE EVENING STAR, land It Is
only a question Of how big the ma
jority for Taft will be. There Is alb
solutely no doubt about New Jersey"
Mr.. Hitchcock spent the morning
with Mr.. Murphy and Mr.. Taft until

mia Railroad platform waiting for a

for Taft and the Republican party.

Conway says, 1t is only a question Of

'M~UD-SL|NGERS'
Asks if Gravestones Shall Be-
come Steps to Higher Honors
for 'Hypocritical Reformers.'

The following editorial appeared in
today's issue of the Freie zeitung, OF
this city:
"From mud-slinging to the suicide OF
the one aimed at Is often only a short
step. It has been said that political
attacks should not be taken so seri-
ously, because during the heat or a
campaign not every word is weighed
At the same time n must draw a dis
tinction between political attacks and
those indecent direct and indirect per-
sonal ISLANDERS that not only reflect upon
the party attacked, but also upon
those that are neal and dear, and al
most invariably hurt them more thar
the person directly attacked.
"These attacks are the more CALLING
and infamous when they come from be-
meath a ~hypocritical mask of self
righteousness, when they are made
under the guise of furthering morality
In other words, when they are really
made to enhance the success of a politi-
cal reform clique. They are the COM
mon weapons Of all those reformers
who frequently have good reason to
divert public attention from their own
persons and who, wise, know the old
tactic that an attack is the best de-
tense. They throw mud at the oppo-
sition. . During the last three
years we have had enough oil this in
Newark. In churches and in public
places. In secret and in the open, an UNI
bearable hypocrisy has made its APP
pearance and has soiled with its poison
all hat have come in contact with it,
and everything opposed to the plans of
those that further such methods. 1t
has come so far that ever the powers of
Justice have been evoked in aid of this
perverted morality, always, of course,
under the pretense of righteousness.
1--WE have lived as under the reign OF
terror of the inquisition practically be-
cause a handful Of fanatics and office
hungry men nave used their power in a
way that surely was not mean by the
voters who elected them. 1t Is not
necessary to elucidate this idea any fur
Their.
And the final result Of all these
monstrous evils. this perversion of the
rights of citizens, this shameful hypoc-
risy, that has now led for a second time
to a suicide in the park need surprise
no one.
But shall gravestones become the

She Accuses T. Jenkins Hains
of Prompting Charges
in Revenge.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The applica-
ton Of Mrs. Claudia L. Hams, for all
mony and counsel fees to defend a suit
for divorce, brought by Captain Peter
c. Hams, jr., awaiting trial for killing
William e. Annis, was denied by JUS
tice Carr in Brooklyn today. Mrs.
Hains's request that she be granted
the custody of her children also was
denied. Annis vas named as core
spondent in Captain Hains's suit for
divorce.
Justice Carr in his decision said that
Captain Hams has no means from
which to pay either alimony or counsel
fees. as his salary has been suspended
since his Imprisonment, and his own
small mean are needed for his own
defense. The court also gave as a rea-
son that Mrs. Hams Is in a comfort
able home with her parents in Massa-
chusetts.
Mrs. Hains's affidavit in reply to hel
husbands divorce suit was made pub
lie today. In it she declared that wher
SaPLdhl IIuiliS lStQlliCu lTOIl Dol
Francisco to Fort Hancock on Sandy
Hook on May 20 last, he accused hel
of intimacy with William K. Annis
basing his allegation on a letter which
Captain Hams said he had received
from his brother, T. Jenkins Hams
Mrs. Hams denied the accusation, and
at her suggestion Captain Hams invited
Annis to their home, after which al
three went riding in Annis's automo-
bile. On the following day, Mrs. Hams
said, her husband Wen to call on his
father, General p. c. Hams, returned at
2 a. m. on June 1. pulled her out of bed,
again accused her, and threatened tc
shoot her. General Hams called that
day, Mrs. Hams asserted, and upon
hearing the captains accusations said
he would shoot Annis on sight. Later
that day Captain Hains's brother T. j
Hams, called with a lawyer.
At the solicitation Of 7. Jenkins
Hams, Mrs. Hams said, she took a
drink of whisl1ey, and then at her hus-
bands order, signed a paper which was
not read to her. This, she believes, was
the confession which they say she
made.
Mrs. Hams denies that she had been
guilty Of any improperly with Mr.
Annis, and concluded: 81 believe that
ny husbands act and the charges
which he has made against me have
been prompted by his brother. T. Jen-
kins Hams, who threatened to in1ure
me for refusing his advances. He en-
deavored several times while my hus-
band was away to make advances, go
