irmed the assessment on the buildings

The final meeting of the 1908 Board
OF Health Commissioners was held last
night, when the members exchanged
kind words. The session was an adj
journed one, to order warrants for the
payment of the inspectors, to pay bills
and transact other business. Owing to
the absence of President Reynolds, who

sioner A. P. Kennedy was elected presi-

MURPHY NOT
FOR CABINET
Former Governor Not Likely
to be Member of Taft's
Official Family.
DRYDEN FOR AMBASSADOR
(F,om the NEWS Correspondent.


Washington, Jan. 13:-Cabinet
states are being made and broken
with such frequency and variety
that 1t is easy to have almost any
man of any prominence mentioned
as a possible member of President
elect Taft's official family. 1t is not
SO long ago that the gossips had II
definitely settled that Franklin Muir
ply, former governor of New Jer-
sey, was slated for the navy port
folio. Then this was followed by
the announcement that Colonel Rob-
ert Thompson, more. of New York
er than a Jerseyman, was to be hit
by cabinet lightning. The candidacy
of Mr.. Murphy for some cabinet
place had the backing of the repub-
licans of the New Jersey congress
sional delegation, and yet it Is be-
lieved now that there is little chance
that Mr.. Murphy will be called into
the cabinet.
Dryden for Ambassador.
There Is strong feeling in som e
quarters that John F. Dryden, for
mer United States senator, may be
asked to go abroad for the Taft ad-
ministration as an ambassador.
While Mr.. Dryden was in the United
States senate he was warm friend
of Judge Taft, who often visited him
at his handsome residence. The
former United States senator is a
man who would make an excellent
ambassador at any foreign court. A
polished gentleman of courtly pres
ence the United States would have
a splendid representative in the per-
son of Mr.. Dryden, and his many
would be pleased to see him named
for some important foreign mission.
New Jersey at Inauguration.
If New Jersey expects to send any
representation from the National
Guard to participate in the inaugur-
alton parade 1t will be we'll for the
legislature to decide the matter in
the near future. Quarters In the
shape of halls that are adequate for
the accommodation of large bodies
of men are scarce in this city, and
already all of the halls available
have been engaged for various clubs
and organizations that expect to
come here.
1t is expected there will be more
than 100000 visitors here to wit
ness the Inauguration, and many
military organizations and civic
clubs have engaged their quarters,
and are planning to arrive here
day or two previous to the inaugur
alton and to remain two or three
days after the big day. The hotels
and boarding houses will be taxed
to their utm ost capacity, and the in
augural committee is doing its best
to arrange for all of the visitors who
will be here to witness the great
pageant.

RESOLUTION OF RESPECT

Whereas nations, states, churches
and societies live forever, but men
come forth as flowers and are soon
cut down. Mans allotted time is
short, his good work is soon ended,
he goeth to his Eternal Home, we
are reminded "all that is born must
die and whereas an all wise Crea-
tor has seen proper to sum mon to
the Eternal Aerie on high our be-
loved brother, Nels e. Jensen, and,
whereas, the members of the COM
mittee to whom was assigned the
preparation of a suitable tribute of
respect to our lamented brother,
knew him well. OF our entire ae-
quaintance in this aerie, we know of
no man of whom it could be more
truthfully said that never wilfully
wronged a fellow being; modest to
degree that was often detrimental
to his best interests, sincere and
candid with all, generous to a fault,
these were the distinguishing char
acteristics of his nature.
Therefore, in partial recognition
of his excellence of character and as
an evidence of our deep regret and
heartfelt sorrow due to his depar-
ture from our midst forever, the
member of Perth Amboy Aerie No.
1856, Fraternal Order of Eagles,
unite in an expression of high re-
gard for the many enviable qualities
possessed by the deceased and sem
timent of bereavement that is felt
by all within our ranks; be it re-
solved, that in the death of Brother
Nels E. Jensen this aerie has sus-
tained a great loss and that each OF
his associates and friends is mex
pressibly grieved by this sudden and
sorrow.
Resolved, that we extend to HIS
bereaved relatives our profound
sympathy in their loss of loving
brother.
Resolved. that a page of our rec
ords be set apart for the resolutions.
and that a copy be sent to the
EVENING NEWS and the Chronicle
for publication, and that our char
ter be draped in mourning for

QUAKE VICTIMS
ARRIVE TODAY
700 Who Escaped CaIabria
Disaster Reach New York
Seeking New Homes.
WILL ENFORCE THE LAW

New York, Jan. 13.-Seven hundred
refugees from the devastated cities
Of Messina and Reggie arrived here
today on the Re d'Italia Of the Lloyd
Sabaudo line
The steamer sailed from Palermo
on Jan. /. The three day interval be-
tween the quake and the sailing of
the Lloyd Sabaudo liner from Paler-
mo, which herself felt the shake, gave
time enough for a few refugees to
reach the port Of departure to embark
on the Re d'Italfa for America.
Commissioner Watchorn said that
the law would be strictly enforced
and the fact that any immigrant had
had bad luck on account of the earth
quake would not influence the author
tiles in admitting him.
If the victims of the earthquake
and of the United States immigration
laws do not wish to abide by the de-
cision of the special board of inquiry
courts on the island ordering them de-
ported they have an appeal TO Wash
ington.
Giuseppe Cutrones, cattle dealer
near Messina, was the first eye witness
of the earthquake to reach this country
He landed at Jersey City this morning
on the liner de Litalia, sailing from
Naples two days after the quake.
Cutrones said he was enroute from
Messina to sell cattle. The train OF
which he was riding was shaken from
the tracks and the station was over
turned. He was buried under debris
but dug his way out and went to Pal
ermo to find his family. As they were
all safe he continued his journey tc

on the grounds that it was excessive.
A new trial was obtained and result
ed in $4,000 verdict. Mr.. De Lamar
did not want to pay that amount, and
carried the case to the U. 8. Circuit
Court of Errors and Appeals where an
order for new trial was obtained. The
case was sent back to the former court
and tried again, this time before Judge
Hough, and a verdict of $4,000 was OBJ
tanned. The defense once more took the

from which word was received this
morning that the verdict of $4,000 had
been affirmed.
