BURKE
HAS EYE ON
EX-CONvICTS

There is q larger number of ex-
convicts and former criminals in this
city at the present time than ever
before in the annals OF the local po-
lice department" announced Chief
of Police Burke today. THAT is not
to say" he continued, that they are
operating here, or committing any
violations of the law. We have them
well under surveillance and there is
scarcely a possibility that we will be
given cause to place any of them un-
der arrest"
Just exactly how many men are
under surveillance Chief Burks could
not say, but he places the number
at over twenty-five. They are all
men who have served terms in Jail:
some in this state, others in western
prisons. All have worn stripes and
a few have labored at splitting rock.
This city, added the chief, has
been singularly free from men of
this character, but few days ago. 1t
was brought to our notice that there
were a number in town. They will.
or at least some of them, depart in a
short while, probably without giving
us any trouble. We will help these
men as much as we can, providing
they prove themselves on the level
and willing to accept honest work.
But should we find them up to their
old tricks, it will go hard with
tham ;,

BODY VINCENT
RUNYON FOUND
IN HAY LOFT
spscIaI 70 be EvENINe NEWs

New Brunswick, May 1S:-The
body OF Vincent Runyon, who has
been missing since March IS, was
found yesterday afternoon in a hay
NOW near his home on Burnet street.
Several attempts were made to To-
cate him, his brother. Elias Runyon,
having gone to New York on one oc-
casion where, he visited all the
morgues and hospitals in search of
him. "A body found near South Am
boy some days ago was also thought
to have been that of Runyon, but
this proved to be someone else. Yes
terday the body was found under
meath a lot of hay. 1t was badly de-
composed and almost unrecogniz-
able.
Upon investigation today, Coroner
Hubbard found an empty bottle that
had contained carbolic acid. 1t was
discovered in the hay near where the
body was found, and from this fact
1t is believed to be case of suicide.
The man, 1t was learned today,
had been i'll and out of work for
some time. His belief was that he
could not be cured.

WILL ASK BD.
OF ESTIMATE
FOR $4,000

Mayor Bollschweiler has not yet
set date for the meeting of the
Board of Estimate, but it will prob
day evening of next week. The may
or, President Sheehy, Of the School
Board, Commissioner Fletcher, of
the same body, and the aldermen
will convene to consider the school
appropriation for the subsequent
year.
The requested appropriation this
year will be in the neighborhood of
100000, 1t was learned this morn
ing, an increase of $4,000 over last
years request. Last May the Board
of Education was allowed $685. 900
to conduct the schools for the year,
but this year the expense of three
extra teachers, one high school in
structor, and the other expenses, will
necessitate larger amount
The cost of maintaining the
schools this year, according to Su-
perintendent Shull, has exceeded
100000 The state appropriation
amounted to over $4,000, and an
extra sum from the city,. received
later in the year, together with
some money left from the previous
year, brought the total UP to the
100000 mark. The following
year the appropriation from the
state is likely to be greater, as the
number of students, upon which the
amount of the appropriation is reck-
oned, will have increased.

OF SWEARING
TO FALSE AFFIDAVIT

Wolff Stoltz, of State street, who
was arrested yesterday morning charg
ed with swearing to false affidavit,
yesterday afternoon furnished bond
of $500 to insure his appearance when
wanted by the grand jury, and was
released.
Stoltz was arrested for an alleged
violation of the Bulk Sales Act, an act
passed by the Legislature Of 1907, com
polling a merchant before selling his
store to make a statement of the claims
and debts against him. In this case,
Stoltz is charged with having sworn
to an affidavit that the claims against
him did not exceed $50, while in real
ity, according to Thomas Brown, attor-
ney for the plaintiff, they amounted
to over 5000.
Stoltz pleaded ignorance of the con
tents of the affidavit, and after first
denying that he had sworn to the state
ment, charged that Leo Goldberger in
whose Office the statement was made,
forced him to sign it. Recorder Pick
ersgill was inclined to doubt his YER
acity and told him so.
Some time ago Stoltz was proprietor
Of candy and ice cream store at SAB
State street While proprietor of the
store, suit for $114 was brought by the
New Jersey Produce Company, in the
district court, and Judgment for that
amount awarded. Then, according to
Mr.. Brown, Stoltz evaded payment by
disposing of his store to Samuel Safer,
the present proprietor and in the trans
action, swore to the affidavit that his
debts did not exceed $50.
