Referee in Bankruptcy Proceed

FavOring Creditors.

The report of Edwin G. Adams,
referee in the Bankruptcy Court, on the
case of William R.. Ward was filed to-
day In the United States District Court,
Trenton. Mr.. Adams reports that he
finds Ward insolvent and hat the three
ruptcy, namely, the Bath-Portland
Cement Company, Copley Cement Man
ufacturing Company and John B. Rose
Company, are his creditors. The testi-
mony shows Wards liabilities to be
$405, 1890, while his assets are $780,
$50. 80. II
The respondents, Anna Day Ward.
his wife, and Henry L.. Pointer. pleaded
a decree of the Court of Chancery adj
judgingsWard to be insane and to nave
been in such condition since May /.
1904, and hat at the time of the
alleged acts of bankruptcy he was
wholly incapable of managing his at

SCHOOL SUITS PUT
OFF FOR TERM
Postponement of Trials Will Halt
Work. on Proposed
Structures.

Two of the cases brought against
the Board of Education by the owners
of property near the site chosen for
the new Bergen street grammar school
were put off the present term of the
Circuit Court today. Charles Myers,
counsel for the board, made a strong
plea against the postponement, argu-
ing that 1t would delay starting the
work on the new school. He said that
the building should be started as soon
as possible. land that work could not
be begun until those cases had been
disposed OF by the court. Complica-
tions arose. however. The cases would
require another week for trial and the
counsel had other engagements which
necessitated the postponement.
Judge Adams starts on his vacation
on Friday of next week. and although
he agreed to return from his summer
home and try the cases during the
week OF June "a Mr.. Riker pleaded
that he had an important chancery
case to try during that week.
Robert d.. Argue. secretary of the
Board Of Education. when seen today
said: 1.-THE delaying of the trial of those
cases will Inconvenience US greatly.
The schools which this school was ex-
pected to relieve are already crowded to
their capacities. Had the cases been
decided we would have begun work ON
the new school Immediately"

MAN INSTANTLY KILLED
BY PENNSYLVANIA TRAIN.

An unidentified man, apparently a
1aborer, was tossed $50 feet into the
Hackensack river and killed instantly
when he was hit by the Long Branch
local on the Pennsylvania railroad
which left Jersey City at 12:43 this
afternoon.
The engineer saw the man walking
ahead of the train on the east-bound
tracks. near the Hackensack bridge.
He says that when the train was
within a few feet the man stepped over
on the w~est-bound track directly in
the path of the train.
The body was flshed out of the river
and laid on the banks alongside the
bridge. The engine that struck the
man was No. 14S.

this condition increased from time to
time. He became irregular in his
habits and seemed to be constantly
forgetting things. Several witnesses
co~rroborated these statements.
In his report Mr.. Adams states that
there was no direct evidence of n
business transaction by Ward that was
characterized by any act of eccen-
tricity, as was Usual with his social In
~tercourse, and the fact that during the
periods OF 1906 and 1907 he was exceed
ingly active in business affairs dis
proved the fact that he was mentally
weak.
Against the witnesses of the re-
spondents, the petitioners produced q
number of witnesses, officers of banks
In Newark, New York and the Oranges,
many of whom had know Ward for
years, and most Of whom had had deal
ings with him In 1906 and 1907, and
upon whom Ward had made no Inn
preston of mental responsibility.
Wards assets consisted of mortgages
and shares in numerous companies.
The report states that 1t finds none CT
the petitioning creditors entitled to
priority of payment upon their respec
tive claims.

according to a decision reached here at
a conference Of the department OF ag-

AT the conference were Acting Attor-
new General Fowler and Solicitor Nc
Cabe, Of the department Of aSrtcul-
ture, the latter representing Secretary
Wilson. It was decided that inspectors
of the bureau of chemistry should be
instructed to procure samples OF
bleached -four shipped in interstate
commerce by millers and jobbers since
the date of the decision in the Kansas
City case, with view TO criminal
prosecution of those responsible for
the shipments.
The Kansas City case was the SELF

misbranded because 1t had been bleach

weeks OF trial a verdict in the case
sustained the contention of the govern :

to the circuit court of appeals. the
government holds that, inasmuch as a
jury has decided that bleached -four is
adulterated, during the tendency OF the
appeal and until a determination Is
made by higher court, bleached flour
must not be sent in interstate COM

Kansas City.-Retail and wholesale
