CHARGES LIKELY TO FOLLOW
GASTON'S CHANGE OF MIND.
FreehOIders Talk of Prosecuting
Doctor at Overlook.

1t is said that the hospital committee
of the Board of Freeholders contem-
plate preferring charges against DR..
John o. CASTOR. an inferno at the Over
brook Hospital, because he has repudi-
ated the allegations that he had made
against several of the physicians at the
institution. which practically caused
the committee to prefer charges against
them.
The two physicians are DR.. McCor-
mick and DR.. Bolton, and the informa-
ton tina DIR. CASTOR is alleged to have
given a member of the committee was
of such a character that the committee
felt that the accused should be placed
on trial. and in fact preparations were
being made along those lines when DR..
Castor informed the committee that
there was no truth in his accusations.
Some OF the members of the committee
are under the impression that DR.. Gas
ton is getting square with them be-
cause his request for an increase of
salary a year ago was turned down by
the committee with very little cere-
non
1t is believed that the charges against
DR.. Mccormick and DR.. Bolton, in view
of the ecent developments, will be dis
missed or die a quiet death.

TWO mFREEHOLOERs
SUMMONED FOR
OVERLOOK PROBE
Mcbride and GOttlieb Examined
Today by Grand Jury
InquisitOrs. !.

Thai the grand jury, which will
day. has not yet completed it's inves-
tigation into the affairs of the County
Hospital for the Insane at Overlook
is evident from the fact hat it has
summoned at least two more witnesses
for it's session late this afternoon in
accordance with the action decided
| upon by its business committee late
last week.
These two witnesses are ~FreeholdeTs
David A. Mcbride, of East Orange,
and Theodore d. Gottlieb, of the Elev-
enth ward. The first named is the sec
rotary of the committee on public
buildings of the Board of Freeholders,
and Mr.. Gottlieb is the secretary OF
the committee On county hospitals
Both of these committees are under nre
and indictments against some or all OF
the members are said to have been
ordered drawn.
What the secretaries are wanted for,
it is said, is to produce the minutes
of their respective committees for the
years that have been covered by the
investigation. Other witnesses are also
on the little list of the prosecutors
office, which is mum as to who they
are.
1t is the committee OF public build
ings that is held responsible for con-
ditions existing at Overlook, as far
as the management is concerned, while
the other committee is blamed for the
fact that there rave been certain II
regularities In the cost of construc-
ton. involving ~freeholders and IN
spectors employed by them and certain
contractors.
1t Is in order that they may search
for further evidence of laxity along
these lines that these secretaries have
been directed by the inquisitors to pro-
duce their books.
1t Is probable also that some of the
freeholders under fire will be asked to
tell the grand jury what the commit
tees were doing during the last year in
trying to remedy the defects limited at
by other juries.

before the interstate commerce com.
mission at hearing in Chicago, to in
sist upon the issuance of peremptory
order making the new class on commo-
dity rates on westward shipments from
eastern points effective on October

the carriers to make the months of
July, August and September a test per
iod, as ordered by the commission on
June %.
A. w. Doland, chairman of the in
terstate commerce committee of the
Spokane chamber of commerce, said in
an interview today that while the new
rates from Chicago and Mississippi riv-
er points are satisfactory. they do not
cover all the ground, adding:
"Two strong points were gained by
Spokane One is that the present
rates are too high, the other that the
rs per cent rate from eastern points to
the Pacific coast and local rate back
to Spokane is illegal We believe. too
that the railroads could have taken the
three months already passed to show
the revenues accruing on business ac-
tually handled and the revenue which
would have accrued, had the rates pre-
scribed by the commission been in eff
feet.
"The months of April, May and
June are fair months upon which to
base revenues on freight, while the sue
ceeding three months are not, for the
reason that fewer goods are shipped
Another thing is that, in view of the
favorable decision, many of the deal
ers will curtail their shipments until
the new tariffs become effective

POLITICAL GOSSIP
OF THE HOUR

There ssems to be q difference OF
opinion among lawyers as to many OF
the provisions of the new primary law
Some are Of the opinion that citizen
who was not registered two years age
is not eligible to sign candidates peti
tions for the primary elections. On the
other hand, one of our recognized 10.
cal authorities state that any quaiif
fed elector, even though he might not
have been residing in the state at the
time Of the last election, may legally
sign such petitions.
The attention of voters is called to
the fact that they are compelled by
the terms of the affidavit they sign on
the petitions, to support at the pri.
maries the men whose petitions they
sign. In case a member Of one party
should sign the petition of candidate
for Office on the opposite party 3
ticket, he will, without doubt, lose mis-
vote at the primary, If challenged.
However, voter may sign the peti-
tion Of an independent candidate for
an Office and also sign the petition of
a candidate for the same office for a
party nomination at the primaries.
