Three weeks ago Bank Examiner

nounced it all right. This fact, and tho
absence of any definite knowledge as To
the institutions affairs. created a hope
and allayed the fears of many
Mr.. Magees widow is prostrated. and
can throw no light on the suicide of her
husband. His associates in the bank
say they believe that if financial troubla
caused the suicide. it was due to Mr..
Magee's outside interests as he was
heavy stockholder in several corpora
tions that have not been doing well of
late.
When news of his act reached the
town there WIS general outp0uring
of the population. The streets were
hlied with weeping men and women.
The most profound grief WAS Displayed
ON all sides.
While the bank had capital of S50,-
600, it had surplus of three times that
amount. and owned the marble building
in which it was conducted. The depos-
its amounted to several times the sur
plus, at the last report.
Magee shot himself four times His
body was found by his son Roger near
where the Manasquan River empties
into the ocean, about a mile from his
palatial home. The feet were over the
dyke. 1t was apparent that Mr.. Magee
had shot himself, with the intention OF
falling into the water. believing that his
body would be carried out to sea- Near
by was a blank bank check, on which
was written:

Coroner Macdonald caused the body
TO be removed TO Plrdy's norgue in
Manasquan which was soon surrounds
ed by a crowd.
While the Terhunes said that no in
vestgation had been made, in other
quarters it was said that the bank had
been slow in its payments for the last
three weeks and that it's affairs were
the subject of discussion at the bank
ers' convention in Atlantic City week
ago.

vous and depressed and that he be-
lieved he was temporarily insane when
he killed himself

having come from Matawan. He en-
joyed the confidence and esteem of lie
community to a marked degree.
One of Mr.. Magee's worries is said
to have proceeded from his investments
in the New Jersey Bridge Company, os
Manasquan. He was a heavy stock
holder in the company, which failed to
meet expectations and which was re-
organized two years ago.
Mr. Magee is survived by his wife
and son and two daughters, Gladys. 20
years old, and Mrs. Carl Wynkoof, OF

bridge company in which President

MURPHY LEADS IN
DELEGATE FIGHT
AGAINST GOV. FORT
If County Delegates Cannot
Agree John W. Griggs May
Get the Place.
ESSEX TO BE ALLOWED
ONE REPRESENTATIVE
Leaders in Other Counties Will
Not Let Both Murphy and
Fort Go to Chicago.

Fear that a contest might be precipi-
tated prematurely caused an early ad
journment last night of the caucus of
delegates elected from Essex County to
the Republican State convention, which
will be held next Tuesday in Trenton 10
select delegates at large to the Chicago
convention and to elect members of the
State committee.
If a division of the Essex delegates
on whom they would support for dele
gate at large as between Governor J.
Franklin Fort and former Governor
Franklin Murphy had been made. the
row would have been on. but according
to the adherents of Mr. Murphy, his
supporters would have won out easily
They claimed that at least scvent,
delegates would support him In pref.
erence to Governor Fort, and that, as
n matter of fact, the number would
actually he larger. This would leave
Fort strength at "a maximum of forty
four votes.
Only one Essex man. it is pretty we'll
settled now, will be among the dele
ates-at-large. If Essex can't agree,
former Governor Griggs may go.
The struggle between the Governor
and Mr. Murphy will not be settled
until next Tuesday in Trenton, when
the Essex delegates will have a final
caucus. There are anticipations OF a
bitter fight at that time.
It is understood that leaders from
other counties have stated that if Essex
did not settle its own muddle as be.
tween Mr.. Murphy and Mr. Fort. that
neither OF them would get support from
other counties. and that former Gov.
ernor John w. Griggs might be picked
instead.
In that case the big four would he
senators KcaD and Briggs, David Baird
and MIR. GrIsss.
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott was leader
of the Fort adherents last night, and
had resolution ready to spring to put
the unit rule on the Essex delegation
and to declare in favor of Judge Fort
as first choice of the county.
When the Murphy men heard of this
they had an amendment prepared bind
ing the delegation to Murphy instead.
This amendment was in possession Of
the Second Ward delegation.
When Chairman Alfred N. DaIrymple
saw that there was the possibility of
bitter fight, he arranged as a matter of
diplomacy that the caucus should be
cut short and final action postponed
The only business done was the selec-
ton of County Chairman Alfred N.
and former Mayor Henry NJ.
Doremus as the Essex members of the
State committee. They are at present
members. The term is for three years.
