Charges, about which city officials
express reluctance to talk, have been
made indirectly against the City Hos
pital and directly against the surgeon
of one of the City Hospital ambulances.
The charges, which have been made by
the Hedden Construction Company,
have to do with fatal accident on the
Prudential building. and were filed to-
day with the Mayor. The Mayor sent
the charges to the Board of Health, and
that body will take them up. 1t is un-
derstood, at the meeting on Tuesday
night.
At the mayors Office and the Board
of Health today no information would
be given out. It is understood, how
ever. that the matter will be thorough
ly investigated.
In the letter to the mayor the He'd
den Construction Company recited an
accident which happened to two or
their workmen on the Prudential build
ing November 80. In that accident one
man received a fractured skull and an
o'iei iacela'eu "ou.a- can was
sent ior a CITY Hospital ampuiance.

WEEK IN STOCK MARKET
MARKED BY RECOyERTES.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The week was
marked by a general recovery in prices
of stocks due to several reassuring fac
tors. One of these was the acquisition
of control of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society by the Morgan interests,
coupled with assurances that a better
understanding among the leading bank
ing interests is likely to result there
from. ~
In the way of general news, the CON-
mercial agencies continue to report i'm
proved mercantile conditions, While the
Industrial situation continues satisfac-
tory, although slight falling off in
activity is reported from some of the
principal manufacturing centres. The
improved condition in the switchmen's
strike in the Northwest was another
feature that made for increased conf
dence in financial quarters.

ORANGE man IS
SWEPT TO SEA ON
DISABLED BOAT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Possibly the
only hope now entertained by naval
officials for the five bluejackets of the
U. s. S. Marietta. who were carried out
to sea in the disabled whaleboat from
the gunboat, is that they have been
tossed by some stroke of fate on an
insular coast.
There is a bare possibility that they
were carried to Nicaragua, and are TN
able either to return by land or to
communicate with their ship on ac-
count of the revolution in that coun-
try. No one in the navy department
believes they are still floating about
on the Caribbean Sea in the wnaleboat.
The five men were lost from their ship
Friday night, November 26.
Reports-came to the navy department
from Commander Hill that five men,
bers of the deck crew of the Marietta
had drifted out to sea in the, ships gig
and five others in a whaleboat. 1t was
added that searching parties had gone
out to rescue them. How they came
to be lost from the ship was not ex-
planned, nor has it been explained to
this day. The department asked for the
names of tine absent men day before
yesterday, and in a dispatch received
today by the navy department Com
mander Shipley, of the Des Moines.

missing men:

DO you remember the pretty little let
ter sent to the Newark EVENING
STAR by Mary Jarvis, who had heard
of the Christmas fund and wanted to
be remembered, because her mother
was too poor to tell Santa Claus to
bring anything to her house? And the
one from Laura DIETRICH, OF Warren
street, who had twin baby brothers
two months old and who was such a
good girl?"
Both of these youngsters have been
made happy already. They didn't even
have to wait until Christmas. One Of
Santa Claus's little wards read their
letters in the EVENING STAR and
Immediately invested her pocket money
in toys and games, brought them to the
EVENING STAR Office today and
asked that they be sent to Mary and
Laura at once.
The name Of this big-hearted little
girl is Elsie Adams, and she lives at
24S1s Littleton avenue.
What more could we ask than that
all of our readers will be moved by a
similar impulse? Do you realize that
by contributing just 81 you will make
two children happy? Little Elsie has
furnished an example that we pray you
to follow.
Readers who wonder IL the poor chill
dren of the city have heard OF the
fund are invited to come into the

few of the many, many letters.

JUDGE FINES MAN SIS FOR
STRIKING 6-YEAR-OLD BOY.
Complainant's Plea Fails to Save
Prisoner.

In spite of the fact that the COM
plainant. Stephen Lavandoski. of 11s
Albert avenue, wished to withdraw his
charge against Wadack Pepchenski, OF
1o7 Albert avenue, that the latter struck
Layalldoski's 6-year-old brother Henry.
Judge Hahn, in the Third Precinct
Court today, fined the defendant SIS.
Hes poor man like the rest of us
and don't want to press the case.
HES lost two days work already" said
Layandoski
Henry, 1t appeared, found one OF
Pepchensli's shoes and was walking
around the street in it. The owner en-
countered him and demanded his prop
erty. Henry returned the shoe, at the
same time calling PepchensiSi names.
SO the defendant said.
Judge Hahn held that while the boy
might have done wrong 1t did not ex-
euse Pepehenski for hitting him.

Attack.

PITTSBURG, Kas., Dec. 4.-Miss
Goldie Ingberg was murdered and
robbed at her home here today. Her
assailant forced carbolic acid down her
throat, robbed her of her diamond ear

Miss Ingbergs earrings had been torn
