Tony Bennatto and his cousin, An
tonic Parriso, the former of Jersey
City. and the latter of 149 Jefferson
street, this city, were arraigned today
before Judge Howell in the Third Pre-
cinct Police Court charged with mur-
dering George H. Fischer, tenement
house inspector, at his home, 110 Con-
gress street, last Wednesday morning.
The prisoners were held without bail
for the Grand Jury.
Bennatto admitted that he had done
the shooting and that the other pris-
oner was with him at the time.
The murder was committed shortly
after o'clock on New Years morn
ing, and by $3.50 o'clock Friday after
noon the two who afterwards proved
to be the guilty ones were arrested and

From the time that they entered the
station house they were never by them
selves for an hour. Bennatto was con-
fined in the cell. Parriso, who is only
Is years old, was put in the witness

Thieves Stole Flour by the
Barrel, Oats by the Bag
and Lard by the Tub.
NO WATCHMAN WAS KEPT
StorehOuse in Isolated Location
Where Robbers Had Plenty of
Chance to Work Undetected.
Pried Open Cellar Window
and Obtained Plunder.

A wholesale robbery occurred at the
warehouse of C. Smith & Morehouse,
-four and feed dealers. at I to 10 North
Fourteenth street, between o'clock
Saturday night and Z o'clock this morn
irg Whatever parties were concerned
in the robbery had to use a truck to
carry the stuff away. as they took
thirty bags of oats, worth $1.50 each;
six barrels of flour. worth $625 each,
and five tubs of lard at 81 per tub. AL
together the loot was worth $96.25. and
it made big truck load,
The first that was known of the rob-
berry was shortly after o'clock this
morning, when the man whose duty
it is to open the warehouse found one
of the large doors partly open. He
thought this strange, as he knew that
he had fastened the door securely be-
fore he went away Saturday night.
Upon further investigation he discov-
cred the loss of the goods.
1t was found that the robbers had
broken a window out of the cellar of
the building, and through it obtained
easy access to the upper part of the
building, where the -four and oats were
stored.
The Fifth Precinct police were noti-
fed, but so far have been unable TO
learn anything of the robbers.
The warehouse is in a place rather
cut of the way so far as public OBJ
servation is concerned, and it would
have been an easy matter for the rob-
bers to have worked without detection,
especially as the firm did not employ
"a watchman for night or on Sundays.

POSTER MAIDS

BEHAVE
CeDsOrs to Sit on Lid.
AIluring Chorus Girls
and Murders" Barred.

The advertisement committee of the
Common Council met this morning and
passed on the bill posters of the vari-
Gus theatres in the city. The commit
tee rejected two of the Empire and
one of the Columbia Theatre posters.
The new purifiers and protectors of the
city's morals are Aldermen Michael F.
Mullen of the Fourth Ward, Congleton
of the Eleventh Ward and Frey from
the same ward.
Alderman Mullen stated today that
in the past the committee which was
created and headed by Alderman
Joseph Wright had confined it's efforts
to censoring the posters on the bill
boards, but this committee, he said,
would extend it's authority a la Com
stock, and look over all public adver-
tising and also look up the pictures
that appear in saloon windows and
other places.

tee will cooperate to keep up the good
work.

With the cooperation of the police COM

that all concerns in the city will have
to submit their posters and advertise

can be used.

Detectives Searching in New
York for Man Who VISIT
ed AvellinO.
VENGEANCE THE MOTIVE
Irvingt0n Shoemaker Believed to
Have Been Stabbed by Man
He Knew Well..Police Keep
Strangers Name Secret.
Body at M0rgue.

Believing that they have the name
of Gieuseppe Avelino, the Irvington
shoemaker, who was brutally stabbed
to death in his shop just before day
light Saturday morning, Prosecutors
Detective Joseph Ducker and Police
man John Coleman, of the Irvington
force, assisted by several New York
detectives, are today searching through
the italian section of New York city.
The clue they are following still leads
them towards the stranger whose mys-
terious visits to the shoemaker's shop
for several months past led them to
suspect that he knew something of the
murder, and upon whom later develop
ments cast the suspicion that he was
the criminal.
Thus far the descriptions obtained of
a man seen near the shop about the time
the murder was committed. of an Ital-
ian seen in Eighth avenue a little later,
of the man whose name was obtained in
Brooklyn by Chief Green yesterday and
the mysterious stranger, all tally. That
there was something between Avellino
and the stranger which made it desir-
able for the latter to keep his identity
a secret is evident from the statement
of Salvatore Abruzzo. the barber who
formerly kept a shop in the same build
ing where gAvellino was murdered. He
did not know, when questioned, any
thing about the business of the stranger
or who he was, although he was a FREE
quent visitor. Asked if he never heard
the cobbler call the visitor by name,
Abruzzo said that no name was ever
used. If Avellino desired to attract the
strangers attention he always whistled
to him.
1t is said that the man has a friend
in Millburn, and Saturday night Chief
Green attempted to hunt him up. in
company with Chief of Police Oliver of
that place. but without success. The
man sought for formerly lived in lrv-
ington.
A number of steamers sailed for
European ports Saturday and the as
sassin would have had ample time to
catch one of them If he cared to, but
it is not believed by the searchers that
he made an attempt to thus escape.
Detective Ducker had nothing to say
today except, when asked if anything
further had been learned from the Wit
nesses still being held, that we're on
something warmer than bothering with
them now"
The new Italian colony just back of
Hilton is looked upon with suspicion
by the Irvington police, and Chief
Green paid visit to the place today.
The Silver Lake section of this city has
been visited, as has Hoboken. hut
with profit or not the police
and detectives do not care to say.
A watch is still being maintained
over the cobbler's shop in the hopes
that the murderer or his friends may
be desirous of taking away something
that the searches of the police have not
revealed. No letters have been found
that would give a clue or indicate that
Avellino has relatives. The body is
still in the morgue at Orange.

FRANCE EXERCISED OVER
ANTl-AMERICAN CABLES.
Anxious to See United States Set
tie the japanese Difficulty
Amicably.

PARIS. Jan. s.-The French government
is considerably exercised over the reports
cabled to some American newspapers In
which it is represented as secretly de-
srous of a war between Japan and the
United States and the destruction OF the
American fleet with the ultimate object OF
witnessing the Observation-Disclosures Of the
Panama Canal.
The Associate Press was authorized today
to declare that nothing could be farther
from the truth. France is the sincere
friend of both countries, and she is ex-
tremely desirous Of seeing the present
difficulties settled amicably.
You can say, moreover" the informant
went on, that France is entirely opti-
mistic regarding the outcome 1t seems TO
us that in the settlement of the imn1i-
grafton question the fact that Great Bri-
tain, Japan's ally, has the same problem
TO solve, should make it easier for Amer
lea to effect n satisfactory adjustment.
especially if America and Great Britain
act in unison along parallel lines"

ROLLER SKATING CASE
HAS IMPORTANT BEARING.
Atlantic City Million Dollar Pier Appeal
Affects Many Other Boardwalk
Amusements.

ATLANTIC CITY. Jan. 6--one of the
most important legal suits coming out Of
Atlantic City for years will be decided
before the Court of Errors and Appeals
tomorrow, when the lawyers for Captain
John Young will contest the decision of
Vice Chancellor Bergen, who barred Young
from hiring out roller skates on his big
Million-Dollar Pier. The contention arises
because of city laws which forbid charg-
ing of more than one admission to piers
outside the Boardwalk, or the selling of
any article on the pier
Several bl philadelphia auto firms are
also drawn into companion suit brought
by the city against Young. on the claim
that ordinances were broken during the
recent auto show here by the selling of
cars during the exhibit Lawyers for
Young and the dealers assert that they
merely took orders, and that this act
did not constitute selling; but the mat
ter will be ajudicated by the court.

LETTER FROM
BROWNSON
GIVEN OUT
President Says II Was In
advertence That Caused
the Delay.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6-President
Roosevelt today gave out the letter of
Admiral Brounson, who resigned as chief
of the navigation bureau with the eXpla-
nation that Il was inadvertently omitted
from the correspondence made public. The
letter follows in part:
Department of the Navy, Bureau Of
Navigation,
Washington. D. c., Dec "a, 1907.
"Sr: In April last | was detached by
your order from the command Of the
United States Asiatic fleet, and ordered
to Washington and appointed chief Of the
most important bureau in the Navy De-
partment the bureau which under the
Secretary is charged with matters re-
lating to the personn-l, the discipline, and
the e6lciencv pf the fleet.
This transfer fsom command which
ranks second in Importance afioat, to one
which is second to none on shore, coming
on the eve of my retirement from active
service, while not to my personal liking,
was deeply gratifying to me, as 1t ap-
peared tc be in evide1ee OF your conf
In order, however, that any efforts of
mine to maintain a high standard of ef-
ficiency and discipline in the service be
attended with success 1t is absolutely es-
sential that | should have the confidence
of the service at large, as well as that of
higher authority. The efficiency, of the
fleet can only be maintained when the
officers and men feel that the chief of the
bureau of navigation has the confidence
of the commandeTNln-chief of the army
and navy and when a strong military spirit
exists In the service. Anything that shows
a lack of confidence or that tends to
break down this military spirit, which has
bene the safeguard and principal asset of
the navy since its beginning, can but i'm
pair such efficiency.
1.-THE recent order placing a medical off,
Ger i'm command of a hospital ship, in my
opinion. and as l have endeayored on sew
eral occasions to point out to YOU clearly
opposed to the intent of the law, is n radi-
cal departure from established naval USAGE,
and is fraught with danger TO the eff
cheney of the fleet, will tend believe TO
break down the military spirit OF the
service, and shows a want of your confi-
dence in my advice regarding a matter so
vital to the best interests of the service.
! am left therefore with no alternative
but to tender my resignation as chief of
the Bureau of Navigation much as | re-
gret to sever my active connection with
the service TO which | have been devoted
and to which | have given my best efforts
for over fortysix years. Very respect
fully,

Its Ancient Popularity Revived in
Recent Years.

From the British Medical Journal.
Common sea water. which centuries ago
was popular remedy in sickness. has
revived its usefulness lately.
In addition to common salt sea water
contains many important mineral SUBJ
stances. the total solid matter amounting
to 30 to 3.S per cent. Sea water has been
given with good results in cases of dys-
pepsia, loss of appetite and tuberculosis.
In general. the appetite was improved
and strength was rapidly regained. In
order to obtain the best and most imme-
date results it is necessary to observe
certain precautions.
The sea water must be natural, as II Is
impossible to initiate so complex liquid.
Indeed it has been proved that sea salt
when redissolved in distilled water lacks
some of the properties OF natural sea
water, eXerting a tonic action upon dog
when injected simultaneously.
1t must be freshly collected. as II loses
carbon dioxide on standing, with precipi-
tation of some of it's salts. 1t should be
taken from the open sea. remote from
rivers and other sources of pollution.
1t should be steriliZed by filtration, as
heat associates the bicarbonates and de-
troys the natural equilibrium Of the liquid.
When required for simultaneous injection
it should be diluted with water to the
same concentration as normal blood
serum. Distilled water is not suitable for
its dilution, as it sometimes causes pain.

American Business Men Defended.

Gov. Hughes in Leslie's Weekly.
The country is morally sound. Its
standards Of business were never higher
In this land of industry, with uneXam
pied opportunities for production and ex-
change, with an area and a population
enjoying advantages of distribution free
from artificial barriers Of intercourse such
as the world has never seen. the. men of
business inevitably represent the intelli-
gence and moral sentiment of the people
They do not constitute a caste They
come from every walk in life-from the
farm, the college, the counting room and
the shop. They represent every element
in the population. native and foreign
born. Of every degree of advantage and
disadvantage in origin and environment.
Every stimulus to ambition, every pre-
.cept Of morality. every counsel of expert
ence, every success and every disaster.
every lesson of the past and the multi
form warnings of a world where truth
and justice alone win lasting victories,
have helped to shape their standards and
to determine their aims. And making
all allowance for the extremes of avarice
and artifice. for the unwholesomei spec
tacles of exploitation and infidelity to
trust, without blinking any evil or gloss
ing over any wrong. the fact remains
that the business men of the country are
for the most part honest men. represent
ing fairly the moral standards of the peo-
pie. And never more than today have
they, taken as a whole, earnestly de-
sired that abuses shall, be stopped. that
an end shall be put to corrupt dealings
and unfair practices. that gambling shall
not parade in business livery, and that
American industry and trade shall have
free scope for development and extension
along the lines of honorabl rivalry and
with justice to stockholders. to employees
and to the people at large.
