SIMPSON SUED FOR
LIBEL BY MAN WHO
FOUGHT CANDIDACY
Alexander F. Cashin Seeks $500
Damages from Progressive
League Candidate.

Alexander F. Cashin, who has been
identified with .he New Idea faction Of
the Republican party, today brought
suit through his counsel, David Bob
ker, against Walter F. Simpson. the
Progressive League candidate for
county register, sor libel.
Papers in the case in an action IN
tort asking $500 damages for the alleged
libel were filed in the First District
Court this afternoon.
The suit is a sequel to Cashin's Sc
curing signatures to a petition nom:-
mating himself as a candidate for
county register in opposition to Simp-
son and the regular Republican candi-
date.
Cashins desire, as he stated 1t when
seeking signers to his petition, was to
ascertain If the theory that a poor
man had the same chance under the
A few days after Cashin started his
petition on August 10 he had the neces-
sary signers, but did not file his pc
tition. His stated reason then for not
filing it was that he had been advised
that his entry as candidate might
injure the chances of the Progressive
assembly candidates.
Mr. Cashin's real reason for refrain
ing from filing his petition, as he had
intended to was, as stated by himself
today. the alleged libelous statement
of which he complains, written by
Simpson to John L. Darlington, of 46
Nelson place.
This letter, which Darlington ex-
hibited to Edward F. Byrne, mutual
friend, of AZ Wicklife street, was re-
ceived by Darlington after public an
nouncement of Cashin's entry into the
fight for register had been made.
In that letter, according to the pa
pers filed. Cashin alleges that Simpson
referred TO his (Cashin's) candidacy as
being paid for by the DIS, meaning the
Democrats.
Further, the letter signed by Simpson
is said to have read like this:
"Cashin says he will defeat me in
Seventh ward and throughout the en-
tire county. He is what you always
said ne was, and the sooner Martin
knows it the better"
1t is alleged by Caslin that he not
only failed to file his petition, but suf-
fered much loss and annoyance be-
cause of the publicity given the letter
by Darlington, and through a copy of
the same, which Simpson is alleged to
have exhibited in the Progressive head
quarters.

BABY PARADE OFF
UNTIL TOMORROW
BECAUSE OF RAIN
Lively Shower at Asbury Park
Postpones Procession of
Over 700 Infants.

Especial to the Newark star ]

ASBURY PARK, Sept. 2.-The mean
old weather man, who has recovered
his crouch after the whole month of
good temper he enjoyed during August,
opened the flood-gates this morning
and let the water flow for all it was
worth. On this account the members
of the Carnival Commission were
forced to meet hurriedly and to post
pone the twentieth annual baby parade
which was scheduled to take place this
afternoon.
Seven or eight hundred clever
mothers, who have taxed their in
genuity to the utmost in contriving
costumes and conveyances for their
young hopefuls to wear and be drawn
in during the progress of the parade.
ar,, of course, vastly disappointed at
the postponement Tomorrow after
noon, however. the weather gods per-
mitting, the parade will take place
and, with the holiday crowd coming
here for its Labor Day vacation, the
procession of the infants ought to provo
more of a success than 1t would have
been if held today.

EXCERPTS FROM WOODROW
WILSON'S LABOR LETTER.

1ne gross misrepresentation
of my views, with regard to or
ganized labor, which some news
papers have contained have
given me no concern.
They were wilful and deliber-
ate Misrepresentation, and such
things take care Of themselves.
I have always been the warm
friend of organized labor.
1t is, in my opinion. not only
perfectly legitimate, but abso-
lutely necessary. that labor
should organize If 1t Is TO secure
justice from organized capital.
have criticized some of the
things that organized labor has
occasionally done, but have
criticized them as friend and
because I thought them harmful
to the laborers themselves and
harmful to the country.
am much more afraid that
the great corporations, eombina-
tions and trusts will do the coun-
try harm than I am that the
labor organizations will harm 1t.
Sharp criticism should keep
them amenable to public opinion
Strict law should restrain them.
The principle is the same for all
of us.

F|vE-YEAR TERM
IN STATE PRISON
FOR PETER LAWSON
Sentence Imposed on Eagle Co.
Cashier, Who Disappeared
With Over $4,000.

Just one month after the commission
OF his crime Peter Lawson will be
landed in the Trenton State prison to
serve a f1ve-year term. Three years Of
this term will be for stealing on
August 4 $4,S6s.4S from the Eagle Com
pany, while the two-year sentence goes
for the theft of $1,477 from the Do
mestic Sewing Machine Company OH
October 49, 1909.
Lawson's sentence was imposed to-
day by Judge Thomas A. Davis in
Special Sessions Court, and was ac-
cepted by Lawson without any COM
ment.
Cashes Big Check.
On August 4 last Lawson went to
the Federal Trust Company with a
check of the Eagle Company for over
$4,000, which was to go to the payroll
of the company. The check was cashed
without any question. Lawson disap-
peared, and for more than two weeks
his whereabouts were mystery. Then
through a letter to his sister -in-law he
was located in Montreal He was
brought back by Detective Sergeant
Tuite, of the central office.
Lawson for a number of years had
been connected with the Domestic Sew
ing Machine Company at 9S Warren
street as cashier and retained the same
position when the company became the
Eagle Company.
George Badenoch, who was the COM
plainant against Lawson. found after
thev disappearance of the cashier on
August that a shortage had existed
in the books of the Domestic Sewing
Machine Company for more than a
year, but had been covered up by
Lawson.
Lawson Disappeared.
When Lawson left the city on August
he left behind him $2,S35, which he
had given to his wife, who, in turn, Sc
creted it in the home of her sister, Mrs
Tillie Muir This was suspected and
both women were arrested. Mrs. Law
son finally confessed.
A telegram received from the Mont
real police stated that they believed
Lawson was in that city. Detective
Sergeant Frank Tuite went there and
found Lawson at the La Corona Hotel,
where he was living under the name Of
Peter Gray. Lawson admitted his iden-
tity and returned to Newark without
>extradition.
When Lawson was sentenced today
neither his wife or his sister-in-laW,
Mrs. Muir, were in court. Early in the
case they had been quizzed by the po-
lice officials, but had been adjudged
guiltless of any connection with the
theft of the money.
In sentencing Lawson Judge Davis
said: "You are guilty of crime that
must be brought home to you. am
sorry to have to sentence you, but you
used money that did not belong to you.
The fact that the greater part of it
has been restored cannot make any diff
ference in my decision in the case.
You have not only broken the law of
the State, but you have brought your
wife and mother-in-law into the case.
l canot allow any sympathy to bear IN
this case"
Judge Davis then sentenced Lawson
to a three-year term on the larceny
charge and a two-year one on the en1-
bezzlement from the Domestic Sewing
Machine Company, the sentences to run
consecutively That means that Law
son viii have to spend five years in
prison.

JAILED For CRIME
THOUGH INNOCENT
Victims of Mistaken Identity
Sent to Prison for Playing

tance below here, three Newark youths,
row occupying cells in the county jail

pranks in the local lookup.
Constable j. S. Allen, of this bor-
ough, received word Monday evening
of the crime in Edgely and was told
that three boys, I'll of them wearing
caps, were suspected. Concealing his
club up his sleeve, as is his custom, he
vania canal and lay in wait for the
trio. Three boys appeared and as they
each wore cap, the constable placed
them under arrest.
They gave their names as Abraham
Bloomfield, aged II. of III Spruce street;
Louis Shaker, II years old, So State
street, and Samuel Schulaner, aged 10,
of Richmond street, all of Newark.
The boys were arraigned before
Squire Kunsman, of Morrisville, who
sent them to the Jug for further in
vestigation. In order to allow the boys
as much freedom as possible, Constable
Allen did not confine them in cells, but
merely locked the outside door, heavy
wooden affair, lined with sheet iron.
They Break Jail.
Tuesday morning, while In the rear
yard of his home, Allen was astonished

house. He Immediately went to the
Town Hall, in which the lookup is To-
Gated, and found the other boys sitting
on the back porch enjoying a smoke.
In a few minutes their comrade re-
turned, bringing his pockets filed with
"eats'
They were then placed in cells and
the door securely locked, but even If
they were so confined they were de-
termined not to be deprived of their
sport, so they turned on the water and
the jug was soon as full of water as
some jugs always are. They were
finally forced to climb up on their
benches and stay there.
The youths We're given a hearing
that afternoon and sentenced to pay
fines of $40 each or spend thirty days
in Jail for breaking out. Unable to
raise the cash the boys have been
taken to Doylestown.
While all this was going on the State
police force was at work on the rob-
berry case and another boy, Fred Exten,
of Camden, was arrested on the charge.
He is now being held in Bristol, and
the authorities are looking for mis- two
companions.
