SAY PRUDENTIAL
STRIKE WILL END
At MEETING TO-DAY
------
Committees on Both Sides to
Hold Conference Over Clash
on Plastering Contract.

A meeting between the men having
charge OF the work on the new Pru-
Dental building for the Hedden Con-
struction Company, including E. }.
Hedden, of the firm, and committee
win take place late this afternoon at
the Hedden Companys field office at
Academy and Halsey street. 1t is ex-
pected that the strike which started
December 81, when 100 masons walked
out, will be settled today.
The strike started when the masons
found out that the Hedden Company
had sublet the plastering contract to
James Thompson, of New York. There
was no objection to Mr.. Thompson or
his worknen, as they are all union, but
the subletting of contracts is in VIOLA
tion of rule 16 of the working code
governing BriclSlayers, Masons and
Plasterers' Union No 8.
In sympathy with the masons the
stone settlers, steamfitters, electricians
and laborers, numbering nearly 500
workmen, quit. This completely tied
up the work of the construction COM
pany. At present there are no men
working in the building.
The meeting this afternoon will be
secret. The Hedden Company have
made overtures to the men and have
tacitly agreed to work according to the
rules of the union. The strikers say
that they will not come back unless
the plastering contract is Cancelled and
the work done directly under the SUI
pervision of the construction company
The calling of the meeting practically
means that the company will consent
to this agreement
There is nothing definite regarding
the ending of the strike, but we have
made several concessions TO the men.
said Fl S. Gardner, superintendent OF
the work, "and it is more than prob
able that they will be back on the jot
in a few days.

The latest rumor in connection with
the Pennsylvania-M McAdoo tunnel plans
for connecting Newark and New York
city with rapid transit system pro-
yidss for station at the junction of
Springfield and Thirteenth avenues, as
well as the one at Saybrook place.
This rumor. as in the case of all
denied by the McAdoo and Pennsyl-
vania officials. but bears lots of car
marks to indicate 1t is the real thing.
The property in question lies across
Thirteenth avenue from the Court
House. and is triangular in shape. 1t
has a thirty-foot frontage, where
Springfield and Thirteenth avenues join,
runs back 149 feet inches on Thir-
teenth avenue, and 200 feet 10 inches on
Springfield avenue The back of the lot
faces $50 feet II inches on High street
The plot is owned by the Rankin es-
tate ana Is controlled by A. w. Ran

FAIL
TO SOLVE MYSTERY
IN SKELET TON CASE
Investigation Of Asylum Tragedy
Ends as Officials Admit
TheysAre Baffled.
MURDER AND ACCIDENT
THEORIES DIVIDE BOARD
Identification Not Cleared Up, ALI
though Many Believe Mrs.
Lindner Victim.

The Freeholders probe of the asylum
skeleton case is ended. Tomorrow aft
ernoon at OverbroolS the hospital cons
mittee of the Board of Freeholders will
meet to perfect its findings. The fol-
lowing day, Wednesday. the committee
will meet at the Court House in joint
session with Prosecutor Wilbur A.
Mott and his detectives. The elimina-
tion of crime win form the basis of the
report when ultimately presented to the
Board of Freeholders at the meeting
Thursday. January IS, and q mystery
second only to the East Orange bath
tub case will be shelved.
The prosecutors detectives worked
night and Gay to clear up the skeleton
case. Fully as much time and, money
was spent in this investigation of the
finding OF the charred skeleton in the
rafters of the abandoned asylum on
South Orange avenue as there was in
the Investigation of the death of Mrs.
Ocey Wardlaw Martin Snead in the
house SO North Fourteenth street. East
Orange. The two mysteries have kept
the authorities on the alert and the
prosecutor and bis men are now ready
to report that the skeleton case Is. not
a subject for further criminal inquiry
The case will be closed without even
satisfactory Identification OF the
Skeleton being made.
The six freeholders comprising the
hospital committee, who worked 50
zea1ously to clear up the skeleton mys-
terry, are equally divided as to the
skeleton being that of Mrs. Catharine
Lindner, once an inmate of ward Nc.
10 in the South Orange avenue institu-
ton. Freeholders Gottlieb, Peck and
Anthem are almost convinced that the
body was that of Mrs. Lindner. The
chairman of the committee, together
with Freeholders Ward and Aclxerman,
are Of an entirely different opinion.
The last three mentioned agree With
the theory of DIR. Daniel al Dill; the
superintendent, who is of the opinion
that the linfortuaate patient, identity
unknown, met an accidental death.
There is aso a. difference of opinion
among lhc prosecutors detectives who
worked upon the case, but the prose-
cttor himself is satisfied that tnere
was M foul play. Detective William
Teed is one of the enthusiastic support
ers of the murder theory, pnt after all
his hard work he is unable to produce
any evidence to bolster up mis- foul
play theory. The members OF the COM
mittee are also divided as to tho
amount of credence that should be
given to the sensational story told by
Mrs. Hinkel. whose daughter was all
inmate in the asylum. There is pos
sibility that each of the two factions
will make separate reports, although
the chairman has hopes of a har-'
nonious report
The committee meeting tomorrow.
like all previous meetings, will be open
to the public. The suggestion to hold
executive sessions did not meet with
the approval of a majority of the mem
bers.
