SIXTEEN START IN
STRONG FIELD ON
BROOkLIAE LINKS
Contest for United States Golf
Association Trophy Will
Be Hard Fought.

BROOKLINE, Mass, Sept. 14.-There
was plenty of driving room at the
Country Club today for the sixteen
survivors in the second round of the
title play among the amateurs of the
country for the United States Golf AS
sociation game. The field, however
was unusually strong. With thirty six
hole matches for the next four days,
and with luck practically eliminated,
the golfers went to the links today
with confidence.
1t Is true that SS.starters on Monday
fell by the wayside, and this number
included Champion Robert A. Gardner
and former Champion H. Chandler
Egan, both of Chicago. However, a
member of the executive committee re-
marked that it was no disgrace not to
qualify in such field for it was 25
per cent. larger than ever before, the
links were 25 per cent. more difficult
and the character of the play was 50
per cent. higher.
OF the sixteen men who started this
morning in eight pairs for a double
journey around the links, Boston laid
claim to six, while three practically
hailed from New York, three from Chi
cago and one each from Pittsburg, To-
ledo Stockbridge, Mass. and Man
chester, VT. The players We're paired
today as follows:

counties of the Fifth congressional dis
trict. Union, Warren and Morris, be-
cause the Cumberland statesman has

claimed to be unanimous vote, and on
account of his strong following in South
Jersey. outside of his own county
While David Baird, like Senator John
Kean, politely declined Mr.. Murphy's
invitation to seek Endorsement at the
primaries, he was remembered by some
of his friends as far north as Morris
county.
In Morristown the Camden chieftain
received % votes to 267 for Fowler, lis
for Murphy and 104 for Stokes. There
are some who think the Baird ballots
may have been cast by Uncle Dan"
Voorhees,, and some of the latter's
friends who favor electing Uncle
Davy" in the good old way.
While the Democratic vote was less
numerous than the Republican because
it was divided between two candidates
only, it has not even been estimated.
Many Democratic voters refused to
take seriously the candidacy of either
James e. MARITIME, of Union, or Frank
M. McDermit, of this county, and the
vote was, in consequence, rather light.

SENATOR SWE AIRS
He LOANED MONEY
TO TROLLEY men
Explain Receipt of $4,000 at
End OF Legislative Session
as Repayment.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-More light
upon the methods of public service cor
porations in dealing with legislators
was thrown at today's hearing of the
legislative inquiry when former State
Senator Louis F. Goodsell testified that
he had advanced $4,000 to the New
York State Street Railway Association
so that the association could turn il
over to the Republican State Commit
tee as a campaign contribution.
The street railway association, the
former State senator declared, had
kept him waiting during the entire
session for his $4,000, and had only
reimbursed him on the day that the
Legislature adjourned.
Mr.. Bruce, counsel for the commit
tee, sought to have the witness admit
that the association had had an ul-
terror motive in Withholding a refund
of this money until the last day of the
session, but failed to do so.

William b. Gourley, for Wilson, was
an interesting one, with honors about

winning over delegates for his man.

United States senatorship by about 900
Fowler ran below his ticket. Beggs will

Belching of gas. heaviness. sour taste
in mouth. dizziness, biliousness and
nausea occur simply because the stom-
ach is not properly digesting the food

lessness and bad dreams are all caused
by fermentation of food
Stop the fermentation; renovate the
stomach and make it clean and sweet
and half the ills of the human family

that it's as good a prescription as any
doctor will write for years to come
E. r. Petty sells MI-O-NA stomach
tablets and so do leading druggists
everywhere. They are rigidly guaran-
teed to cure any case of stomach dis
ease, or money back

'DUPEO OF $500
BY Dr. SCH|RESON,
INTERPRETER SAYS
Man Missing Doctor Employed
as Translator Now Accuses
Him of Fraud.

Willard b. WillwoTth, a Lithuanian
by birth. who has been in this country
since he was boy, and is at present
living with his wife at the home OF MS
father, in Seymour, Conn, today placed
in the hands of the United States pos
tai authorities in Jersey City letters,
which he claims will prove his charge
that, in addition to maintaining a
"Ifome for Bloodless Surgery" at 80
Central avenue, this city, DR.. Henry j.
Schireson, strangely missing. also sold
doctors diplomas
Willworth says that he paid DR..
Schireson 81, 500 in cash and gave him
a note for $500 on DR.. Sehireson's prom
!se that he would get for Mr.. Willworth
a license to practise medicine.
Il first met DR.. Schireson in 1908 in
Boston," said Mr. Willworth today. Il
was ain optician and my place of busi-
ness was at 72 South Fourth street,
South Boston. Dr. Schireson had one
of his institutions there, and had big
practise among foreigners. He had
trouble getting a Lithuanian interpre-
ter and sent for me.
He held out a glowing prospect. He
said he would pay me $35 a week and
that he would teach me to be doctor.
He said that for $4,000 he could get me
a diploma to practise medicine. The
diploma would come from university
in Washington, d. c., he said. When
my first weeks wages were due he
handed me SIS When / complained he
said that he had held out the remain
ing 500 to go toward the purchase of
my diploma.
Patients Pockets Searched.
Then / began to grow suspicious OF
DR.. Schireson and the manner in which
he ran his place. One of the features
of his office was an impressive looking
X-ray machine. When patients came
to the office they were told TO take off
all their clothes and go before the ma
chine.
HThen attendants in the office would
search the pockets of the patients
clothes Letters, business cards and
money were carefully looked over.
From these | learned later DR.. Schire-
sons men got a very fair idea of
what fee to demand. For instance, If
the cards or letters showed that the
man was prosperous business man he
would be charged accordingly. If he
was a mechanic the fee would not be
so high. Again if a man had $25 the
first payment required would be $50; If
he had $50 the charge would be 1O0.
The first payment asked was always
double of the amount found in the
patients pocket
"Dr. Schireson also made great i'm
preston on these patients by what ne
termed his wonderful psychological de-
auctions. He would gather from the
cards and letters great deal about
the patients private life, and then the
patients eyes would bulge In aston
ishlnent after he left the X-ray ma
chine at what he thought the wonder
full psychic powers of the doctor.
Invariably the patients then would
be given gold and silver tinted pills
The regulation charge for the silver
pills would be 81 each. and the gold

FRAUD ON N. Y. BANK.

NEW YORK, Sept IA charge of
fraud on the Mercantile National
Bank, of 1876 Broadway, by one of it's
customers was brought to the attention
of District Attorney Whitman yester-
day. The amount involved is variously
stated up to $150,00O. Detectives found
the man against whom the charge was
laid, and remained with him at his
hotel last night His own accounts and
those of the bank will be compared to-
day, and If they make out a prima

The story carried to the district-at-

on a tender of securities that looked
good and on references as to credit that
appeared satisfactory. When the loans
were called and unpaid, 1t is. said, the
bank could not find a satisfactory
market for the collateral or collect on
the references. A charge of intent to
defraud was then made against the
