CENSUS MEN
IN ESSEX COUNTY
HAVE Been PAID
Washington Office With Big
Force Unable to Cope With
Situation.

That only a small minority of n
census ~enumerators of Essex county,
whose headquarters were in the local
Federal building. have been paid theiH
money is the belief of the local census
office. There were 2s1 enumerators en-
ployed in numbering the people of this
county, and their average wage, when
their fifteen days work was owe
amounted to $685. rs. This sum was sup
posed to have been paid by at least
July 20.
The local Office has nothing to do
with the payments. as the Washington
authorities. after certifying the requsi-
ton sent in by the enumerators as cor
rect, send a check direct to the home
address of the Individual.
Pay 100000 a Day.
From advices received from Wash
ington it was said at the local Office
today that almost 800, 900 a day is
being paid out to the more h 10000
enumerators who took the 1910 census
Yet. every day brings a large number
OF complaints to the census Office.
mostly through the mail. regarding
the payment of the checks. Supervisor
Samuel A. Smith. who was in charge
of the census of Essex county, gave as
his opinion some time ago that the
enumerators would all be paid by July
20. On the following day there was a
crowd of the enumerators at the office
all wanting to know the why and the
wherefore.
The reason given for the delay is
that the returns of the enumerators
have to be carefully checked, and that
the amount of clerical work involved Is
so tremendous that even the huge Office
force now employed at the job in
Washington is unable to cope with the
situation.

T~ARIFF-MAKERS MADE
STEEL DEAL POSSIBLE.
Senator Cummins Tells Why
Trust Rewarded Carnegie.

OLATHE, Kan, July Ex-senator
Albert B. Cummins in an address here
yesterday afternoon attacked the Uni
ted States Steel Corporation. saying:
you will remember that in 1901 the
Carnegie Company, Of Pittsburg, sold
its plant to the United States Steel
Corporation, organized that year. The
steel corporation paid the Carnegie
Steel Company $500, 900, 900 for its plant
and business. OF this incomprehensible
sum Andrew Carnegie received $780,
100000 in the bonds of the corporation
and his associates in business received
the remainder.
What was the plant worth? That is
not a subject longer in dispute. 1t has
been most infinitely investigated. The
highest value any reasonable mar
would put OF it in 1901 was $780, 600, 900,
and the United States Steel Corpora
ton paid to Andrew C~arnegie's COM
pany 1920. 600, 900 more than 1t was
worth, more than would be required to
reproduce it with every modern i'm
provement known to the business.
Now, why did the United States
buy PHANgVOVBV " iilOiC
for this property than 1t was worth?
| will tell you. 1t examined the books
of the Carnegie Steel Company because
there was shown that over a series
of the Carnegie company had
been making profits that would pay In
terest on $500. 900, 900. and the United
States Steel Corporation had enough
confidence in its W power and in the
friendship of men like Dalzell, of Penn
sylvania; Payne. of New York; Aldrich,
of Rhode Island; Hale. of Maine, and
of Lodge, Of Massachusetts. to be sure
that in the years to come 1t would be
able to earn interest upon the $780,
100000 1t was then paying t. the Car
negie Steel Company This is the secret
of that transaction"
Senator Cummins then told of the
company's reorganization with a a D
ital of 81, 500, 0Oo, 900. and that $500, oo0, 900
of this capitalization was pure water.

WHEN MEN RIOT
CLUB HEM,' SAYS
JUDGE IN COURT
Sugar Refinery Trouble-makers
Get No Sympathy in
Jersey City.
Especial to the Newark star.l

JERSEY CITY, July 27.-"The po-
liceman dubbed me-" said one of the
prisoners who was arraigned before
Judge Queen in the Second Criminal
Court of this city this morning for hav-
ing taken part in the riotous demon
~stration accompanying the attempt to
get the American Sugar Refinery en-
ployees to strike in sympathy with the
men in the Long Island plants.
! HE should have dubbed you," said
Judge Queen. when men riot and
incite others to riot the police have a
perfect right to club them to a pulp, If
it is necessary to subdue them"
The men were arraigned as disorderly
persons.
+. Judge Queen instructed the police In
future to book the trouble-makers at
the strike for rioting or melting to
riots. He fined Michael Cutler, 25 years
old, of OF Essex street, who threatened
to hurl missiles from the window Of the
second floor apartment, 100 Essex
street, S15. Cutler and others were at
the windows with empty beer bottles
n bricks, with which they made
demonstrations against the police.
Lieutenant Charles Graf, who is in
charge of the police arrangements dur
ing the day. rushed into the house and
into the apartment and seized Cutler.
After his arrest there was no more
trouble from the house.
This morning the police were at
tackled by a gang of Brooklyn men.
Led by John Boland, they charged the
mob and laid six OF them out with
their sticks. They did not bother to
arrest the injured men, but slet their
friends carry them away. The night
sticks are proving effective in preserv-
ing order and attacks upon the police
and men employed at the sugar house
are becoming less frequent. Over one
hundred of the LOO employees are still
out. Most of them are afraid to re-
u to work. The Jersey City men are
paid Is cents an hour and have no
grievances.

the year had the bracing
quality of midi october we
should keep on working
at full pressure-and burn
up like carbon In oxy-

word preached by a Their
mometer in the COS, and
that sort of preaching is
never unheeded. AS the
chauffeurs would say. you

so reduced that you rest
while you work"
Good, common-sense talk.
isn't 1t?
Some wise 20 people i'm
agine they don't have to SLOW
up" they think because they
are strong and well that 1t
isn't necessary to rest. These
people have CAST-IRON CON-
STITUTIONS.
You know the breed, don't
you?
Well, sometimes even CAST

IN THE Low is sure to feel
the effects of his folly soone

FIRST WRITTEN STATEMENT BY
 COLONEL ROOSEVELT.
1t Relates to the Candidacy of Robin
 son for Congress.

Oyster Bay, July XPresident Roosevelt today issued the first form al statement, written in his own hand, since he returned from abroad one month ago today. It concerned the po- litical future of his nephew, Theodore Douglas Robinson, who. Colonel Roose- welt hopes will be elected to congress if he is nominated from the twenty seventh New York district, comprising Herkimer and oneida counties.
 This is Colonel Roosevelt's statement in part: My nephew told me he did not desire me to take any part what ever in the nomination because he especially desired that this matter should be settled by his neighbors in Herkimer and oneida absolutely with out any outside interference of any kind, but he desired to know whether in the event of his nomination l would come up and speak for him. l told him, of course, l would"
 Douglas Robinson and his son took luncheon with the ex-president, and after they had talked over the situa- ton, Colonel Roosevelt decided to place himself on record.
 The twenty setenth district was rep resented in congress for many years by James s. sherman, now vice president, who was succeeded by Charles $. Mill lingtOn. The Robnson's were the only visitors today at Sagamore Hill.
