HACKENSACK, Aug. 12.-While
asleep on the trolley track near May
wood station early today William Shulz
was decapitated by car and his COM
panion, Edward Below, had his left
arm so badly crushed that it vas am
putated at the shoulder in the General
Hospital here.
Shulz, who was 35 years old, and his
companion worked in haywood, and
last night came here to visit friends
They started home at midnight and
left the car near Spring Valley avenue,
haywood. Instead of going home they
walked up the track about 200 yards
and then laid down.
Shulz used the trolley rail for pill
low, placing the back Of his neck on
the rail. Below took a position nearby.
There was a heavy fog at the time
and the trolley car, which left Pater-
son for New York at 1905 this morn
ing, came bowling along at rapid
rate, on its last trip. The motorman,
Michael Goonis, says that he didn't
see the two men until it was too late
to avoid hitting them. He put on his
brakes, but the trucks of the car had
passed over the men when the car was
brought to a stop

WARREN, ELOP|NC
NEWARKER, AND
GIRL IN SAVANNAH
WelI-to-Do Business Man Left
Pretty Wife and Went Away
with Passaic Miss.
DESERTION CHARGE TO
BE TRIED IN SEPTEMBER
Also Wanted in New York, but
Police There Won't Spend
Money to Extradite Him.

Frank Warren, wealthy Newark
business man, who Is under Indictment
on charge of abandoning his pretty
wife and 4-year-old daughter here to
elope with a young Passaic girl, has
been located in Savannah, Ca, by the
police of that city.
With Warren was woman believed
to be the daughter Of the Passaic
hotelkeeper, with whom he eloped.
The police, believing Warren to be
wanted here, detained him and his COM
panion, releasing them both when it
was learned that the Newarker would
not be wanted here before September 1,
According to advices received today
by THE EVENING STAR from Sa-
vannah, Warren's companion is still
with him in that city
Mr.. Bohm the cashier in the cafe
and restaurant on East Twenty-third
street, Manhattan, which Warren ran
when he left Newark. went to the New
York police and made a complaint
against him, charging the embezzle-
ment of 500, paid by Bohm as security
/ for his position. When Warren left he
4 failed to return this money
The information announcing that
Warren is held ia the Southern city was
/ received in this city in the form of a
/ telegram from the police of New York.
| Immediately after receiving the mes
sage, Captain Carroll detailed Detec-
tive-Sergeant Kuhn on the case, and
reported that Warren would not be
wanted by the authorities here before
September /, when, it is expected, the
indictment charging him with deserting
his wife and daughter Will be tried. 1t
! is also understood that there Is another
charge pending against him. @
The charge made against Warren in
New York, 1t is understood from the
police there, is not important enough
| to warrant the expenditure of suffi-
eient sum to have him eXtradited. If
he is still in Savannah when the indiet-
ment is called to trial he can be brought
back as fugitive, after his bail bond
is forfeited.

the respective districts for collection

The State Board of Assessors has ap-

hearing of any appeals that may be
filed by the railroad companies from
these assessments. The board is now
busily engaged in making up the valua.-

ations may be certified to each of the
taxing districts so that the valuations
may be added to the ratables of the re-
spective districts. The taxing districts
will report to the State board their re-
spective tax rates for the computation
of the tax, and the tax will be col
lected by the State Comptroller and
then remitted to the municipalities.

Although the assessment of 1891

tax levied on the assessments of 1907 Is

Is accounted for by the operations of

HILLERY REFERS TO
STATE EXCISE BOARD

Goals of fire were fleaped on the head
of his rival, Senator Everett Colby, last
night by Assistant Prosecutor Thomas
L., Raymond, when he announced that
If Mr.. Colby secured the nomination at
the primaries. he would work like a
dog" for his election. The statement
was made by way of retort to the an
nouneementyby Senator, Colby thatsshe
would work for the defeat of Mr.. Ray
mond at the polls, If he did not comply
With requirements imposed by Mr..
Colby ~ =.
This attitude of Mr.. Raymond brought
down the ,throng that filled the.New
Auditorium. where Mr.. Raymond spoke
at as,ieeting held by the FIRST Ward
Republican Clubsr Meresthan thousand
men were present, besides few women.
The men were from all sections OF this
city and several or the outlying NUM-
cipalites in the county. Among the
auditors were Ernest T.. Quackenbush,
Senator ,Colby's private secretary, and
stenographer, and r. Arthur Heller, one
of the New Idea leaders. A few Demo-
Gratis were scattered through the hall. 81
Mr.. Raymond did not adhere to the
text OF a speech he had prepared, but
spoke extemporaneously, during various
parts of his address. He talked conf
IDENTIFY and was unafraid as a man
might be on the occasion Of his first Inn
portant political speech In addition to
being confident in his manner of speak
ing. Mr. Raymond seemed assured he
would be elected and on several occa-
sions referred to the time when go

be seen that the valuations for 1906 and
1907 show very material increase over

Thomas ]. Hillery. president OF. the

sage opposition by him to the PROPOSE
ton to establish a State Excise Com

order and presented James O. Smith as
permanent chairman. After a short
talk In which he advised young men
to be interested in politics, Mr.. Smith

When Mr.. Raymond was introduced
he was greeted with great applause,
and he had to wait before he could pro-
ceed. He was calm and when the
cheers died down, remarked: pea9g ~ !
THAT certainly sounds good to me-
This evoked another round After it
subsidized. Mr.. Raymond started his talk
with the statement: ht*
'It Is an honor of no mean order to
represent a county as large and as
nrosperous as Essex as it's Senator in
the LEGISLATURE. Under our system of
government each county has but one
senator, and he alone Is responsible
