Collector William Loeb jr, OF the
port Of New York, who has been hard
AT work for months to drive the crooks
and incompetents out of the New York
custom house, was able to say today
that the work Of hoyse-cleanine would
be finished in another week.
Not only will the collector, backed by
Secretary NacVeagh, have completed
the dismissals and demOuons, but the
places Of the dismissed and denoted

organized. The work of reorganization
has been going ahead steadily and
simultaneously with the work of weed

how many. So far as can be learned,
there are no high officials in the list OF

Upon their return last night from
Maine, where they had spent the
greater part of the summer, Admiral
and Mrs. Edwin H. Stewart found that
their home, at 405 Scotland road, South
Orange, had been entered by burglars
and all three floors ransacked.
Drawers and closets had been emptied
and their contents strewn all over the
floors. The loss was slight, however,

Entrance was gained by cutting the
glass out of a window on the first

house was broken into in a like manner
last night. The extent of the booty
secured amounted to thirty cents from
the cash drawer.

The ground for application for a

change places with the Rockefelers,

This declaration was made today by
Henry Hinsc, the tax assessor. who has
just added IS. 10000 To the taxable
valuation of the Standard Oil works at
Constable Hook.
This bowstring Of the Standards val
uation does not mean that Mr.. Hinse
has completed his task by any means.
In fact, it would not surprise him if
he had to tack on another million or
W before ne gets through.
This city official who had the temer:ty
to, as he expressed it. buck the trust
in its W lair" was found in his office
at the City Hall today.
You see, when l took his job Of
assessor last June I did so with the
understanding that I was going to dc
NY duty, no matter whose toes | trod
on" Mr.. Hinse remarked.
Right here / want to state that I
was treated with every courtesy by the
Standards officials. who showed me
around. One fool reporter said I dis
guised myself as a laborer and worked
In the ~refineries over there, and in that
way got my figures. That's a lie.
Those officials threw everything wide
open to me and 1 had no trouble at all.

and sat down TO my desk ! began to
figure. | amt through figuring yet, but
! got far enough to notify Colonel W.
W. Fuller, the Standard Oil Company's
counsel, who takes an active interest in
keeping track of the trusts assessments
as we'll as all legislation affecting Mr..
Rockefeller's concern, that there was Il
little matter of s.. 80, zoe between him
and me, which meant about $4,000 per
to the citizens Of Bayonne."
Asked if Colonel Fuller had taken an
appeal from the assessment. Mr.. Hinse
remarked.
Not yet. but he will. Chances are
he is so mad he viii ignore the County
Board of Tax Assessors. Beneath the
dignity Of such big folks as the Stand
ard 10 fool with US small fry. you know,
so he will carry it to the State BOARD"
He wa. asked II the Standard Oil had
added very materially to the wealth and
population of Bayonne.
mo, it hasn't said Mr.. Hinse. In
the first place, it has monopolized the
finest factory sites in the world.
Chances are if the Standard hadn't To-
Gated here a multitude of other manu-
facturers would have done so. and I
believe they would have brought a more
desirable class of workmen here. The
Standard employs cheap foreign labor
and they don't help the city much.
Many Of our more desirable citizens
have moved away on account of those
works, and who can blame them"
