When asked as to what preciptated
the crisis DR.. Mac Diarmid said: In
my opinion several causes have led up
to the present situation. Primarily the
fractional fight between the Lynch and

TENEMENT HOUSE CON-
DlTlONS DISCUSSED.

Charles ]. Allen, secretary of the State
Tenement Board, was the speaker at the
regular meeting of the Conference OF
Friendly Visitors, held this morning IN the
Free Public Library. Mr.. Allen took ioc
his topic 'What Constitutes a nuisance
Charles G.. Ellsworth, one of the board OF
directors of the organization, acteG as
chairman of the day, and introduced TIA
speaker.
Mr.. Allen said in part: 'If you were to
put the question to any one on the HILL
as 10 what constitutes a nuisance they
would readily answer that the whole tene-
ment house system was the nuisance ana
ought to be abolished. That is impossible,
of course, but the conditions can be and
are being changed by the Tenement House
Board.
Under the new tenement house law.
every room must have a floor space OF
70 square feet, and contain a window
opening into the outer air" Mr.. Allen
told of the grave menace of the dark
room, where no ray of light ever pene-
trates. and cited an instance of a house
not ten minutes walk from Broad and
Market streets with a room so dark at
midday that a person ignorant of the po-
sition of the door would be unable to find
it. And yet, a man, his wife and four
children slept in that room. The board is

the partitions between sue rooms, and
the lighter one next to it, in such in
stances, where it is possible, but in many
cases Mr.. Allen stated that it was neces-
sary to take the case before the Attor-
ney-General before landlords would COM
ply with the law. The lack of water was
the next greatest evil, according to Mr..
Allen. Many houses in which live four or
more families. have to depend on a hy-
drant in the yard for their entire water
supply.
The cellar evil, and the dark closet I'm.
der the sink were told of in a graphic
way, and the many improvements made
by the board were cited.
"The fire-escape law was the next step
of Importance. when it was required that
every house of three stories and over must
be provided with fire scapes. 1t was an
uphill work in many cases, but" said Mr..
Allen, over five hundred houses which
had no provision for fire are now equipped
with fire escapesY
An open discussion followed the talk,
and many practical questions were am
swered by Mr.. Allen.

LOVE NOTES
IN APPEAL
Jury Should Not Have
Heard PiteOus Messages,
GiIIette'S Counsel Says.


ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 9.-chester Gill
lette's appeal from conviction of mur>
der in the first degree for the alleged
killing of his sweetheart, Grace Brown,
of South Otselic, Chenango County, was
argued this afternoon before the Court
of Appeals. Former State Senator A.
M. Mills. of Little Falls, who has been
Gillette's counsel since his arrest, as
sisted by C. d. Thomas, represented the
defendant, while argument for the peo~
pie was made by George w. Ward, OF
Dolgeville, who, as district attorney OF
Herkimer County, where h alleged
crime took place, prosecuted Gillette at
his original trial.
Gillette is charged with having en-
ticed Miss Brown, who was about to be-
come the mother of a child OF which ne
has never denied the paternity, to Big
#, Moose Lake, in the Adirondaks, IN July,
1906; taking her out in a boat TO q
lonely part of the lax n as uusk
was falling. striking her on the head
and face with his tennis racquet or some
other Weapon, and throwing her uncon-
scious body into the water, where, IL
is claimed, drowning completed the
work Of murder. The defense claimed
that the girl in despair at her phgnr
suddenly arose in the boat, exclalmlns
81 will end it ALL and before her COM
panion could prevent, leaped into the
water, overturning the boa as sne
jumped. Gillette claimed he was un-
able to rescue her. The Feature of the
trial was the reading of a series or
extraordinarily pathetic letters written
by Grace Brown to Gillette.
Senator Mills today commended that
it was an error to receive in evidenceI
the letters of Grace Brown in view OF
her condition at the time they were
written. and that their effect was to
stir the Jurors to render a verdict OF
guilty through an irrepressible tide OF
feeling.
Senator Mills said also that it was
erroneous to receive in evidence the
statement of employees at the factory
where the girl was employed, these
statements being made, he ~contended,
long before the occurrence charged in
the Indictment. He also declared it an
error to submit to the jury strands of
hair which were found tangled in cleats
of the overturned boat and to permit
them to speculate as to its identity.
He further questioned the legality OF
the extraordinary term of the court
appointed to try Gillette, c~ontending
that it was not constitutionally organs
lied.
Mr.. Ward sought to controvert the
points raised by Mr.. Mills, and held
that "the verdict in this case is inn
pregnable."

IN ELECTION
CASES?
Of Action by Grand
Jury Include Names Of
Prominent Officials.

Reports were circulated today that
city and county officials were indicted
by the Grand Jury on charges in con-
nection with false registration I'M ne
gal voting in the last primaries anu
general election. This action, II Is
rumored, was taken yesterday AFTER
noon at a lengthy session. A number
of other like cases came up, and some
of the jurymen thought that the evil
dence produced was not sufficient to IN
dict. Among this number, it is said
are several men who hold high official
positions.
While no true bills have been pre-
sented to the court and the inquisitors
can change their minds, still rumor mas
it that Freeholder Joseph Kenny, OIL
the Fourth Ward; Alderman Elmer A.
Day. of the Second Ward, n Harry
Corbitt. of the First Precinct, a son Oh
Chief of Police Michael Corbitt. are
among those whom the majority OF
the Grand Jury voted to indict.
IT is understood that the jury a
under serious consideration evidence
placed before them in the case of an
other prominent county official and
several city officials. together with a
notice court clerk and two plainclothes-
men attached to one of the city pre-
cinctS.
The evidence was furnished in several
of the cases by men now in the county
Jail for election frauds, but there as the
result of the two hauls of the net by
Sheriff Sommer, and several of the in
formants formerly held positions under
the county.
One mar in particular, who is said 10
have furnished the greater part OF he
evidence against the officials, Volun-
teered to come from New York to fur
nish it and did so. :.

MAYOR HAUSSLING.

In accepting the statue on behalf of the
city Mayor Haussling spoke as follows:
I'm officially accepting this statue on be-
half of the city of Newark, 1 do so In the
confident belief that few gifts of the
kind could be more welcome to the citi-
zens of this municipality. Monsignor
George H. Doane occupied a position in
the community the full nature n extent
of which we are only beginning to realize
now that he has been gone from us for
several years,
1T is not in order for me to dwell in
detail on this many-sided personality, but
1t may not be improper to ask a recogni-
ton of the fact that he was the energetic
and beloved pastor of a large flock; that
he was a patriotic American; that he was
a profound scholar; that he was a pa
tron of the arts; that he was a lover Of
nature, and, finally, that he was a broad
minded friend of humanity.
HE did indeed realize in the highest
sense the attitude of being all things to
all men. His friends and intimates were
drawn from all classes, and he secured
upon occasion a cooperation of efforts or
interest on the part Of all ranks of the
local society.
His was the stimulating influence that
brought the treasured paintings Of our
Weather residents into the view Of their
fellow citizens at the splendid art loan
exhibitions in the Free Public Library. He
cherished the great county park system
as though 1t were his own private estate,
but his enjoyment was UNNECESSARILY
heightened by the fact that he could share
its pleasures with the rest Of the COM
munity. With the changing of the seasons
he noted in the public press the varied
aspects Of nature in the great recreation
grounds Of the county In such a manner
that he persuaded those who read to join
with him in his appreciation of the flow
ers n plants and trees.
Coupled with his other admirable char
acteristics, Monsignor George II. Doane
was an enthusiastic Newarker. He be-
lieved in his city and in his fellow citi-
zens, He was not blind to the faults OF
either, and on occasions did not hesitate
to express his views as to conditions
which met his ~disapproval, but always in
a manner that indicated his confidence
that the wrong complained Of would be
righted. His great stores of learning, his
experience gained in many journeys
through his W and foreign lands, were
always at the service of his fellow New
arkers.
