tilted Man, Held Fast
by Head.

Caught in the paddlewheel of the
steamboat Majestic, the body of an un-
identified man was found early today
by Alexander Peterson, one of the oilers
on the boat.
Peterson was filing the oil cups in
the wheelhouse for the trip to Coney
Island. Looking into the water he
saw the body. The head was held fast
by one of the paddles.
The indications are that the body had
been in the water about three days.
1t was viewed at Mullins morgue, 22S
Lafayette street, by County Physician
William H. Mckenzie. who said death
had been caused by drowning.
The man was probably a German. He
was feet inches tall, weighed 1870
pounds, had black hair and a red mus
tache, wore black outing shirt, black
trousers and black shoes and stockings.
There was nothing on the body to
lead to Identification 1t is supposed
the man was a steamboat fireman.

Robert H. Illingworth. a wealthy
steel man, and general manager of the
Cruelble Steel Company of America,
had a narrow escape from death last
night in an accident in which his
driver, Michael McMahon. received
hurts which today proved fatal.
Mr.. Illingworth was being driven to
the Lackawanna depot to catch a train
for his summer home when the acci-
dent occurred at Washington and
James streets. He would not allow
anyone else to drive his favorite bronco
horse. for McMahon had been doing so
tor a quarter of a century. The men
had left the company's plant in Har-
rison and Mr.. nlingworth had made
business call in the centre of the
city Mcmahon drove through Wash
ington street, and as he was about to
turn into James street truck, coming
east collided with the carriage. The
shaft struck the driver as he was
tossed from his seat

When a crowd assembled the driver
OF the truck disappeared. Policeman
Maroney. detailed at the Free Public
Library, reached the scene shortly aft
erward, but Mr.. Illingworth and Me-
Mahon refused to give any information
and attempted to make light of the
latter's injuries. Moroney advised Nc
Mahon to go to the hospital, and after
some persuasion both men consented
Maroney telephoned for the police am
bulance and Mcmahon was rushed 10
st. MichaeIs Hospital There it was
found that several ribs We're broken and
that he had been injured internally.
Mcmahon died at 4 O'Clock this MORN
ing. Mr. Illingworth is very much
grieved. as he was much attached to
his driver, who was a man of excellent
habits
1t is believed that Mr. Illingworth Is
in possession of the name of the driver
of the truck which collided with his
carriage. Every effort was made 10
keep the details of the accident from
the police, and at the oce of the steel
company today it was said that Mr..
Illingworth is out of the city.
McMahon was born in Ireland and
came to this country when a youth.
He was 46 years old. He was a resi-

a quarter of a century and was &

surpassed in a hold-up in which a
Newark girl was concerned.
Miss Charlotte M Hamilton, of 239
South Eighteenth street, was the vic
tim, and the highwayman was almost
too nice and good to be true Miss
Hamilton, who is young and attractive,
was returning from a candy store in
East Orange about $3.50 o'clock last
night when she heard some one running
along behind her.
81 had reached a lonely stretch on
Eighteenth street by the Fairmount
Cemetery, in East Orange" said Miss
Hamilton today, land when l knew i
was pursued l started to run. 1t had
not gone far when l was over taken
and seized. l was terribly frightened,
but ! made up my mind long ago if l
was ever held up to let the robber have
my valuables as the surest way of saw
ing my life.
"tPardou me, / am going to rob
you, said an agreeable voice in my
ear after the pursuer had caught up
with me. / turned to see young man,
dark and handsome, dressed in new
ly pressed serge suit, a handkerchief
hound about his eyes preventing my
recognizing him. l screamed, and a
man who had been walking in front
of me ran away. l think he was a
confederate.
MAKE no outcry and you will not
be harmed said the man. l started
to protest, but he securely pinioned
me. He quickly took from me my gold
watch, chain and chatelaine pin, gold
locket, a crescent pin, a diamond ring
and a gold ring set with an amethyst
AS he was taking my jewefry he talked
reassuringly, telling me he had no in
tention of harming me-.
"When he had all my jewelry the
man leaped back and said:
"'Stay right where you are for a few
minutes. Really, hate to do this, but
ii is necessary. As soon as can will
send you the pawn tickets for your
property so you may recover it. Good
night and may you be none the worse
for your adventure.
Miss Hamilton says it would have
been impossible for her to move for
several minutes as she was paralyzed
with fright. Finally she regained her
feet and hurried across the Newark
line to her home, hundred feet away
There she told the story of the hold-up
and her father hastened to the East
Orange police headquarters and told it

Miss Hamilton describes her assai-
ant as 5 feet 4 inches in height, of
sturdy build and dark hair and dark
complexion. He was clean shaven and
about twenty years of age.

MARTIN SAVED FOR
NEW IDEA TICKET
He May Not Run for County
Chairman, Say Leaders After
Conference Today.

Following several informal confer
ences today between the New Idea
leaders who are not away from the
city it was stated that Assemblyman
William P. Martin will be retained on
the county ticket and either Ulysses B.
Brewster, of the Eighth ward, or a
dark horse, whom none of the heads of
the New Idea organization would name
will make the run for the Republican
county craftsmanship 1t is known that
Mr.. Martin has been considered for the
ehairmanship, but his own inclination
is to return to Trenton next winter, if
possible ad those of his following who
wish to see the Assembly ticket sue
eessful want his strength applied there.
Mystery is the principal characteristic
of all the reports on thefchairmanship
situation. There is dark horse. "a
sure winner so they all say, but who
he is or whether he is going to run or
not is included among the facts that
are being withheld from publicity In
fact, he has not given his consent to
have his name used, if the rumors con-
cerning him are true.
Several weeks ago a subcommittee cf
the executive committee was appointed
to take UP the matter of finding a can
didate for county chairman. On that
committee were appointed former Sen
ator Everett Colby. chairman; Assem-
blyman Henry c. Hines, Henry Boom
bers Dr. E. NJ. Gardner and Walter F.
Simpson. The committee was TO meet
at the call of the chair, and as yet have
not gotten together formally, it is said.
Senator Colby is out of town and viii
be away for another week
In the meantime, however. the other
members of the committee and the
members of the executive committee
are talking over the situation seriously.
The time is growing short and the cam
paign ought to be under way 1t is
known that Senator Colby favored Mar
tin as a candidate for county chairman
but the others regarded him as too
valuable a leader of the Assembly dele
cation to let his name be taken away.
lie will not run for both offices. Sew
eral years ago he made that statement
and in the discussions in which he was
mentioned for the county committee
place he reiterated it.
That he was not the dark horse was
declared by Lathrop Anderson, presi-
dent of the County Tax Board this
morning.
Mr. Martin win not make the run
for the chairmanship,' he stated.
Walter F. Simpson was equally posi-
tive that Martin would stay on the
Assembly ticket.
In 1906 Martin could have had the
chairmanship but at that time he did
not want it. Mr.. Brewster, who is men,
toned FOR the place, has been several
times a member of the committee and
was a member of II when it was first
separated from the city committee. He
is a chocolate manufacturer of Jersey
City and has wealth and time enough
to devote to the work if he is elected

Fourteen of the Essex Troopers. un-

they will march over the Plank road
and make the last lap of the return
journey home from war.
On the Puritan also was the Seventh

Every preparation has been made in
the neighborhood of the armory to
give the troopers such reception as
victorious soldiers deserve. The armory
and the neighborhood has been gaily
decorated.
In the fierce fighting of the mimic
war which recently terminated with
the theoretical fall of Boston New
ark's mounted citizen soldiers were al
ways in. the thick of it, and their ex-
ploits made one of the distinctive fea-
lures of the campaign. They lost
heavily in killed and wounded--theo-
retically, but are returning home with
a fun quota in that, in this instance,

women as she pointed at Nor.
II did nothing of the kind; you stole

in reply, and both then started for the
village Jail, each declaring that COM
.plaint would be lodged against the
other. The large crowd which had
gathered followed.
Nor was first to be heard by Judge
Roll. He asked to have charge of
trespassing made against the woman,
and the latter declared that she had
not trespassed on Mor's property and
had not picked the berries on his
place. Her two companions also denied
being on Mor's property, and the judge
refused to entertain a complaint

Nor returned to the spot where the
berries were and gathered them from
the ground while the woman from
whom he had taken them stood by. 1T
my husband was here he would make a

Nor.
After the berries had been returned
she and the other members of the party
who said they were "out for days

on a trolley car to this city. They
refused to give their names.
Judge Roll said later that Nor had
sent him a letter stating that he did
not wish the judge to speak to him
on the street.
