PREVENTORIUM TO 90.
Trustees Decide 10 Remove the Institu-
tIon Fr0m Lakewood.

Gov. Fort OF New Jersey said in Lake
wood last night that Marcus NJ. Marks,
president OF the Children's tuberculosis
Preventorium at Lakewood. telegraphed
TO him on Friday that the trustees OF the
preventorium in a meeting in this city on
that day had unanimously decided to re-
move the institution from Lakewood.
A letter was received in Trenton yester-
day from Mr.. Marks addressed TO the Gov
erflor and its contents were telephoned
TO Gov. Fort. The Governor said that he
presumed that the action Of the pre-
ventorium trustees would be given out
by Mr. Marks and that he felt that he was
violating no confidence in making known
the facts.
Mr.. Marks had no announcement to
make last night. but said that there might
be one to-day.
There has been lively oppos ition in
Lakewood to the preventorium since last
fall. The matter of the right of the
managers OF the institution to locate il
in New Jersey was submitted to the State
authorities and no law was found under
which an institution conducted as the
managers said this was to be carried on
could be ousted from the state. There was
talk OF introducing in the Legislature a
measure under which, when 1t became a
law, the preventorium could be compelled
to remove.

on which Judge Garvan was lying.

five minutes and Mrs. Brady submitted
to the TRANSMISSION for nearly that time.
Mrs. Brady is still weak from the loss
of blood, but no fear is entertained at
Judge Caravans home for her safety.
The Judges condition was so much
improved that he will be able to undergo
the operation which DR.. Blake plans
with much greater chances for recovery.

The Senate vacancy caused by the death

Seven ballots were taken. in which
Scott received Q. Griffith and DIR. c. G.
Harvey OF Yates votes. Hoyt pulled
the string in the eighth ballot and five
Of Harvey's ballots went to Grifhth and
one to Scott. That ended it. Harvey
was merely a dummy candidate. Both
Scott and Griffith had declared for direct
primaries and the Governors policies
at the eleventh hour.
Mr.. Grifith was brought out by State
Committeeman Charles II. Belts, who
has been publishing in his newspaper
at Lyons a series OF articles criticising
the Governor. Congressman Payne's
| friends, who were on the ground, explained
to the defeated Ontario delegation that
the Congressman had no interest in the
fight except that the thing best for the
marty should be done. He wanted to
keep the party strong and united for
future use. The delegations from the
several counties were attended by throngs
Of enthusiastic rooters. and the inter-
ference of the Congressman left some
