INSURGENTS
GATHER At
OYSTER BAY
DolIiver, Cummins and Bav-
eridge to Visit Former Pres
ldsnt This Afternoon.
IMPORTANT CONFERENCE
TO BE HELD

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 7.-Colonel
Roosevelt will have bis important In
surgent conference this afternoon at
Sycamore Hill. His visitors, according
to announcement will be Senators
Dolliver and Cummins of Iowa and
Senator Bever1dge of Indiana. Con-
gressman Hamilton Fish, another of
the progressives, is also expected.
Roosevslt's conference with the In
eurgents today Is regarded as the most
significant he has had since his return
home. He will finish his conferences
with the insurgents this week at least
for the present and next week will go
into the political situation in the state,
1t has BEEN definitely settled that
Governor Hughes Is to call upon Mr..
Roosevelt on next Tuesday. After the
governor win come other state leaders.
Colonel Roosevelt set the political
savants to guessing with an announce
ment that he will have talks at Saga
more Hill with William Barnes, Jr.,
Republican leader OF Albany, when he
returns from Europe and Speaker
Wadsworth Of the house. AS both
these men are aligned with the anti
Hughes forces, there is speculation as
to what Mr.. Roosevelt wants with
them. 1t Is considered probable that
In his ambition to assume control OF
the state machinery he may have some
compromise to make.
Wadsworth may be decided upon at
the Hughes Roosevelt conference as an
available candidate for the state chair
manship, vice Timothy L. Woodruff,
whom Mr.. Roosevelt would like to
have ousted. Mr. Woodruff has not
been invited to Oyster Bay, and Roose-
velt has shown no inclination to make
any overtures to him.
II Mr.. Roosevelt arrives at any un.
derstanding with Barnes and Wads-
worth 1t is figured that 1t will only be
on condition that they abandon their
opposition to the direct primary fight

STEAM SCALDS
BARGE CAPTAIN
Thomas Targeson Horribly Burned About Legs While in
Engine Room Of Tugboat Bee Yesterday Afternoon
Blow-coek Suddenly 0pened--ls in Hospital.

Steam escaping from blow-cock
on the boiler Of the tug Bee, OF the
r. G. Packard line, lying at Bun
tens dock yesterday afternoon,
scalded Thomas Targeson, a barge
captain, of 172 Carter street, Brook
lyn, to such an extent that after be-
Ing attended by DR.. M. S. Meinzer,
he had to be taken to the city hos
pital. Targeson's limbs, from feet to
thighs, were horribly burned.
Captain Targeson, whose barge is
also the property Of the R. G. Pack
ard Company, boarded the tug yes
terday afternoon about Q o'clock and
descended to the boiler room to con-
verse with the engineer. While he
was standing IN front of the blow
COCK, a volume of steam suddenly
poured forth without any warning.
The steam enveloped the lower part
OF his body and before he could es-
cape. had burned him severely.
With yells of pain, the captain
staggered to the deck, where his
clothing was removed Joseph Nc
Loughlin, saloon keeper, of 2
Smith street, summoned DIR. Mein-
ger, who responded and placed tenn
porary bandages on the limbs of the
suffering man. He was removed to
the hospital in the city ambulance.
An extra heavy pressure of steam
in the boiler was responsible for the
accident. The blow-cock, through
which the steam came, acted as a
safety valve and opened when the
pressure inside became too great.

REGISTRAR ON
The PROBLEM
OF LICENSES

City Clerk LaRoe yesterday re-
ceived from Registrar of Vital
Statistics David s. South commun-
ication regarding the issuing of
marriage licenses when civil cere-
mony has been performed and
wedding according to religious rites
is contemplated. Mr.. LaRoe, few
days ago, wrote to the registrar ask
ing whether or not a second license
might be issued to an already mar
ried couple who intend to be united
again by religious ceremony.
Letter from Registrar.
Following Is the reply:
Trenton, July 5, 1910.
"Mr. Wilbur LsRoe,
"City Clerk,
Perth Amboy, N. J.
Dear Sir:
your communication of the 1st
inst. is at hand. In cases where
parties contemplating marriage de-
sire both a civil and religious cere-
mony performed we would suggest
that you issue two licenses, separate
and apart from each other, requir-
ing the parties to pay 81 for each
license One of these licenses may
be presented to the magistrate who
Is to perform one ceremony, and the
other license to the priest who is to
perform the religious ceremony.
The reports of both these marriages
should be filed in your office by the
officials performing the ceremonies
and the same should in turn be for
warded to this department.
sTs, rooard t0 tho nnaattDn blanks
we would inform you that both the
parties contemplating matrimony
should appear before you and an
swer to the questions. In case you
are In doubt as to the age of either
person applying for the license you
should request them to go before a
notary or magistrate and have one
of the consent blanks furnished by
this department filled in and sworn
to.
VERY respectfully,
DAVID s. SOUTH,
Estate Registrar"
Not satisfied with the answer, Mr..
LaRoe will again communicate with
the registrar. He believes that a
second license is unnecessary, as
the religious ceremony, he says, is
but a confirmation of the civil con-
tract.
Mr.. LaRoe issued one license yes
terday, bringing the total to date to
eight. 1t was granted to Stephen
Tangel and Mrs. Anna Pusztai,
widow of Stephen Pusztai, who COM
mitted suicide on Decoration Day
last by drowning himself in Koch's
pond.
MATTERS were arranged speedily
when both parties appeared here, :"
said the city clerk, "every question
being answered Immediately. This
is the first case so far where / have
had both parties here, and in the
future / will make an effort to have
both principals here when applica-
tion for a license is made"
