MISS WARDLAW CRITICALLY ILL
Her Death Would Cripple Prosecution
in New Jersey Murder Case.

Miss Virginia o. Wardlaw, the youngest
OF the three aged sisters charged with the
murder of Mrs. Ocey w. NJ. Snead at East
Orange, is in critical condition in the
House of Detention in Newark, to which
she was removed a few days ago from her
cell in the county prison. She is under
the care of two physicians and several
nurses.
Miss Wardiaw Is in a semi-conscious
state. and oxygen is being administered to
her. According to DR.. Walter S. Wash
ington who visited the patient yesterday
afternoon, she was slightly weaker than
the day before. He declared that Miss
Wardlaw is in very serious condition.
Much concern is being manifested in the
Office of Prosecutor Wilbur A Mott over
the turn AFFAIRS have taken in the case.
1t was Miss Wardlaw who took Ocey
Snead TO the house in East Orange in
which her death occurred. SO far as is
known, she Is the only person the prose
cution is positive was in the East Orange
house at the time Of Ocey Snead's death.
1t is admitted that with the death of
Miss Wardlaw the case of the state
against the other two women would be
considera bly, weakened, and would perhaps
mean that the Prosecutor would be placed
in a position where 1t would be useless for
him to move the indictments against the
other prisoners, who are Mrs. Caroline B.
Martin. the mother Of the dead girl, and

WOODRUFF ISSUES CALL
Republican State Committee to
Meet on Tuesday.
WILL SET CONVENTION DATE
Chairman Expected to Relin.
quish Leadership in Interest
of Party Harmony.

Chairman Woodruff of the Republican
State Committee sent out a call yesterday
for meeting to be held at headquarters,
No 4S West 18th street. on Tuesday. This
meeting Is primarily to set date and
make other arrangements for the state
convention. Chairman Woodruff has al
ready placed option on September q,
but it was necessary for the state commit
tee to ratffy the selection or the Demo-
cratic State Committee, which meets in
Saratoga on Friday of next week. might
take the date which is considered the
most available this year.
The Republicans intend to hold their
convention in Saratoga and the ma jority
sentiment of the Democrats is for the
same place The week in which the con-
vention must be held is practically, al
though not legally, fixed by the primary
law Under this law the primaries will
be held in this city on September IS and
in the cities upstate a week later. In
order that the district conventions to select
delegates may have time to meet the state
conventions cannot we'll be held before
the week of September p.
Tuesday being the most convenient day
for the beginning of a state convention the
Republicans VIII probably decide on Sep
TENDER 81 So if the Democrats go to Sar-
atoga- they will have TO meet on Thursday
and Friday, September % and so
The apportionment for delegates to the
state convention has been made out by the
state committee The basis of apportion-
ment is the Presidential vote of 1908. the
rule which has been in force with the Re
pubiicans for more than twenty years be-
ing one delegate TO reach Assembly district
and one for each thousand or major frac-
ton cast for that Presidential elector re-
ceiving the highest number Of votes This
will give a total of 1,015 delegates in the
next state convention. which is an increase
OF six over the last state convention
This will be the first meeting of the
Republican State Committee since the agi-
tation last winter for the deposition of
Chairman Woodruff. At that time the I'M
derstandng was reached that Mr.. Woodruff
would not be a candidate to succeed him
self if he were not molested before the
state convention.
It was, therefore, with some surprise
that dispatches were read from Beverly
when Chairman Woodruff visited President
Taft recently stating that Mr.. Woodruff
had not decided whether he would make a
fight for reelection or not. 1t is believed
that such an announcement from him
would cause no end of friction in the
party at this time. 1t is possibly felt that
he allowed this statement to get out just
to see how it would take. Those who pre-
tend TO know him best declare that he
does not actually intend to make another
fight.
Although the formal meeting of the COM
mttee will probably be short, there will
undoubtedly be many informal conferences
at which the situation in the state will
be thoroughly gone over and candidates
