TO Be CROWDED
More Than 1000 New Pupils

September 9.

The fail. term of the regular day pub.
He schools will begin on September 49,
The days for registration of pupils are
September and 10. The total enrolled
. last year was $3.50. and 1t Is figured
that the increase this year will be
about 1000
Upward of fifty new teachers will be
needed. Some of these will be sap-
pointed in September and the others in
February or May, when the last of the

Poland, superintendent of schools, who
is now at Ithaca, N. Y, where he de-
livers one lecture week in the Cornell
University summer course for six
weeks. He will return to Newark in

II is not probable that accommodate
tions for the Increase of 1000 pupils will
be ready for the fall opening. The adj
dition to the Fourteenth avenue School
will be completed by August /. and will
have room for about 800 new pupils.
The addition to Morton Street School
will not be ready until March /.
Rooms for upward of 2,400 children
will be needed at Morton Street School
this year, SO that annex buildings will
have to be leaesed until the new build
ing is opened in May, when the school
can accommodate about forty-four
classes.
The new building in Lafayette street
will not be completed until February 1.
but fifteen rooms in old addition WI
hold over 700 pupils in September.
There are twenty-eight classes in the
old buildings. and when the new ad-
dition is ready there will be total of
thirty-five new classrooms.

That Alexander Metzler,- alias Carlo
Giro and Frank Schletmann alias John
Smith, the two burglars who are held
for the, murder of Mrs George Staber,
of 455 East Eighteenth street. Flatbush,
had operated in the Oranges was
proved today when a suit of clothes
stolen from the homesof r. j. Carey, of
the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance
Company was found in the burglars
rooms, 81 First avenue. n
The Carey home at u South Grove
street, u East Orange, was entered and
robbed Of a large amount Of silyerware
ana clothing. The suit found in the
rooms of the burglars was part of the
plunder- The thieves on the occasion
Of their visit to the Carey house cut a
valuable painting from, its frame
Alden FreemaA Marked.
Evidently Metzler and Schleimann
planned further depredations in East
Orange, as the name Of Alden Free
man and his address was found in a
notebook, In the First avenue house.
When told Of this discovery Mr.. Free
man said 1t was probable the burglars
had designs on his house and he would
take extra precautions He thought
they may have obtained his name and
address from the papers.
Mr.. Freeman nor any of the residents
of East Orange need not fear these
particular burglars as their confession
that they were In the Staber house
when Mrs. Staber was killed will prob
ably send both Of them to the electric
chair. They disagree as to which one
fired the shot, but 1t will make no diff
ference. as under the circumstances
both are charged with murder in the
first degree.
May Have slain Bersin.
The discovery in the First avenue
room !of oilcloth such as covered the
hesdless body of Samuel -Bersin, the
OF whose recent murder was
eclipsed in public interest by the Sigel
case, and green paint such as s,the pack
age containing the body was labeled
with lead the New York police to be-
lieve that they may have found in the
the murderers of, Bersin
1t has been established that Schlei-
mann4is is "a ,counterfeiter who escaped
from Sing Sing in 1906 and that Metzler
served a term in Elmira for stealing
express packages.
