HEALTH BOARD
WILL NOT ABANDON
OLD PEST-HOUSE

The Common Council recently
adopted a resolution providing that the
Board Of Health should either burn the
old brick smallpox hospital in Eliza
beth avenue, near the Newark aims
house, or pull it down.. Property own
ers in the south end of the city have
protested for years against the reten-
tion of the smallpox hospital there.
They say the place swarms with small
pox germs.
Health officer David d. Chandler
said today that the Board of Health
would o abandon the old smallpox
hospital until 1t has a new one He
said Alderman Elmer Day told him the
resolution would not have been
adopted If the aldermen had known the
conditions. They thought that small
pox patients would be received in the
isolation hospital for contagious dis
eases at Soho.
.But smallpox patients will not be
taken in the hospital" said Mr..
Chandler. 1--WE may take down some
of the portable frame buildings we
erected in Elizabeth avenue when we
had many cases of smallpox in New
ark.
THE people who live in houses OPP
posite the old hospital do not object to
It."

COMMISSION IS
PROBING DEADLY
TRAIN CROSSINGS
State Railroad Body Summons
Witnesses and Looks
Over Plans.

Objections to two grade railroad
crossings were heard by the State Rail-
road Commission at It's weekly session,
which was held in the Court House
today.
In both instances the commission
made a record of the crossings in ques-
ton, decided that it would be In the
interest of the public to abolish them
and would recommend such action to
the interested railroads.
The Midvale crossing of the New
York and Greenwood Lake Railroad in
Passaic county was the first that was
testified to as most dangerous, and many
photographs, and plans were shown to
the commission to convince them OF
this fact. County Counsel j. Willard
Deyo appeared on behalf of Passaic
county and had witnesses and photos
to prove his contention that the cross
ing should go.
The other dangerous crossing under
discussion was that at Fairyiew ave-
nue., Verona, where the Caldwell branch
of the Erie railroad cuts across the
county road. j. Fillmore Condit, for
mer freebooter Of Essex County, and
other prominent citizens of Verona In
terested In the improvement, gave
testimony.

stated the sobbing wife, "has been
troubled with stomach ailments for two
years past, and has suffered greatly.
For the past two months he has
done nothing but talk Of death, and
how nice it would be if it would only
take him off.
"I never suspected that this death
talk was premeditated. When he arose
to go into the bathroom this morning
he seemed in good spirits, and smiled
at me as he passed by to go into the
room"
The suicide was an interpreter for

Aains With Murder in
the First Degree.

Hams this morning. Attorney McIn-
y re, fof the defense. accused the
prosecution OF tampering with his per-
sonal witnesses. This witness, ac-
cording to Mcintyre. was almost the
FIRST person to meet and talk with
The Hams brothers the day they ar
rived in the vicinity OF the Bay Side
Yacht club and even prepared an affi-
dayit which supported the assertion
of Jenkins Hams that ne and his
brother came to Bay. Side for the pur-
pose of inspecting real estate and
meeting Il real estate agent, and the
subsequent crime was the outcome of
the sudden situation or circumstances.
Now Mcintyre declares that the Wit
ness win attempt to repudiate the afi-
davit and become q witness for the
state. and will testify that the brothers
mentioned Annis' name and ore pistol
at least was displayed
Mcintyre and his associates indi-
cate that they hold witnesses to
the affidavit and il necessary viii
prosecute him for perjury.
Mrs. Peter c. Hains, mother of the
prisoner, will be chief witness for
the defense. Her testimony will
be strongest to prove the absence os
premeditative murder and the part
of Captain Hams. in the lattei's time
Of trouble. and did not urge him to
