SEABRlChT MAN is
ACCUSED OF Libel

Red Bank, July 14:-James M.
Allgor, a Well-known resident of
Seabright, was arrested at his home
yesterday under two indictments
charging him with criminal libel.
Allgor's present trouble first began
a year or SO ago over the erection
by him OF an ice cream parlor on
the Rumson road near the Shrews-
bury river. 1t proved to be a fail
ure.
Allgor blamed his wealthy neigh
bors for this, saying they forbade
their help to ~patronize him. Pla-
cards bearing offensive inscriptions
on soiled linen we're displayed, and
the erection of a high board fence
around his Rumson road house to
shut off the view from the handsome
residence built by P. Hall Packer
postmaster, added to the feud. The
fence, too. was placarded with the
names Of prominent Seabright and
Rumson residents who figure in the
differences between Mr.. Allgor and
his former friends.
Allgor says he is being persecu.
ted and ON various occasions has de-
clared that Justice in Monmouth
county was impossible" He has beer
before the grand Jury a number OF
times seeking indictments against
some of his enemies, but failed tC
obtain what he sought.

OF
H. c.. PITNEY
FOR CAPITOL
Special to the nHENrNa xHws

Trenton, July 14:-A portrait of
former Vice Chancellor Henry G..
Pitney, father of Chancellor Mahlon
Pitney, was yesterday added to the
already large collection of portraits
of distinguished men of New Jersey.
The portrait is a striking likeness Of
the distinguished jurist. The work
Is a fine piece of art, and is consider
ed one of the best portraits that
adorn the walls of the State House,
and there are many of them that
have been painted by the leading
artists of the country. =.
The gift of the portrait to the
state comes in a rather interesting
way and is the outcome Of a visit to
England by the former Vice Chan
cellor some few years ago. Just be-
fore the visit, Charles e. Roberts,
who is Vice Chancellor Edwin Rob-
ert Walkers official stenographer,
learned of the then vice ch~ancellor's
proposed trip, and he called upon
him and urged the former vice chan
cellor to call upon his brother when
in England. The former vice chan
cellor promised that he would, and
when he reached England he had no
difficulty in locating Mr.. Roberts
brother, who turned out to be one of
the leading artists Of England.
While visiting Mr.. Roberts the lat
ter induced Vice Chancellor Pitney
to sit for a portrait, and when he re-
turned to America he had with him
a portrait of himself which now
hangs upon the walls of the Pitney
residence In MOrristoWn
The visit to England resulted in
the forming Of a strong friendship
between Mr.. Ellis Roberts, the artist,
and Vice Chancellor Pitney to the
extent that Mr.. Roberts a year or so
ago invited the jurist to make an
other visit to England. The vice
chancellor, however, managed to
have the artist make him a visit. and
while here he visited many places of
interest, among them being the
State House. 1t was while Mr.. Rob-
erts was in Trenton that he noticed
the large collection of portraits that
adorn the walls of the State House,
and he then suggested that the re-
tired vice chancellor sit for another
portrait for presentation to the State
of New Jersey to be placed with the
cOilect1on or distinguished men OF
New Jersey. The former vice chan
cellor consented and the artist COM
menced the portrait, which arrived
at the State House today,
The portrait was inspected by the
members of the Court of Pardons
and many of the friends and ac-
Quaintances of the former vice chan
cellor today and it was the opinion
of those who have seer the portrait
to be one of the most perfect and
life-like portraits in the State House
collection.
The portrait was received by Gov.
ernor John Franklin Fort with a
letter from Mr.. RobeiE expressing
his great pleasure in having the OPP
portuntty of painting and presenting
to the state a portrait Of SO distin-
guished a jurist.

DEMOCRATS
MAY UNITE
ON WILSON

% Jersey City, July 14:-It is stated
here upon what appears to be relia-
BILE authority, that the Davis and
Smith factions of the democratic or
ganizatton have been drawn togeth-
er for a harmonious and active am
paign for governor, with President
Woodrow Wilson, of Princeton Uni
versity, the likely candidate upon
whom all may unite. Congressman
Eugene Kinkead, Hudson county, is
said to have been the peacemaker,
although that is not certain, and 1t
Is declared that Colonel George B.
M. Harvey, Of New York, was sent
as an emissary to Old Lyme, Conn,
to talk over the situation with Pres
ident Wilson in his summer home.
The congressman yesterday de-
clined to confirm that part Of the
rumor, but he did say that In a few
days a statement would be given out
clearly defining the status of affairs,
and 1t is intimated that there is
some reason for the belief that Pres
ident Wilson will be induced to &C
cept the proffered nomination. For
mer Senator James Smith is firm In
the belief that If President Wilson
will make the run he will win easily,
especially if the Davis men fall into
line and solidify the ranks of the
party, as well as gathering all the
Independent republicans under the
Wilson banner.

Tartans of Scotch Clans.

Many Scotch clans have several tar
tans, such as a common tartan, q
hunting tartan and a full dress tartan.
Early in the day a highlander of po-
sition dons a kilt Of plain tartan, and
In the evening for dinner he puts on
his full dress tartan with sporran and
richly jeweled dirk. For example, the
Macpherson dress tartan Is black and
white, with a narrow red line, and the
hunting Macpherson is a small blue
and black and red check. The stuarts
have three tartans, and the design of
their hunting tartan in dark blue and
green is particularly fine. Each elan
has its own badge. The Duff men
wear holly, the Gordons an Ivy leaf,
the Stuarts an oak leaf. and SO on.

Gals were heard from.

the International and New York
State organizations, was the first
speaker at yesterday mornings ses-
sion. He spoke of the benefits of

City, made the report for the dele
gates to the international convention

Mayor It. Frank Appleby well
coined the delegates to the conyen-
ton yesterday afternoon and Presi-
dent Scheonmaker delivered the
opening address. He declared that
there had been little labor trouble
during the year and that the strike
in Newark last spring was the only
serious dissension. Mr.. Schoonmak-
err urged that some action be taken
to arouse interest among the mem
bers of the trade in the southern
part of the state, where the associa-
ton Is weak. He then spoke of the
company recently incorporated by
the organization for the purpose of
buying wall paper direct from the
manufacturers at a reduced cost.
State Organizer Charles e. Van
SICKLE, of Newark, reported that lit
tie had been done in the way of new
associations or increased member
ship. Calling attention to a valua-
BILE feature of the convention, the
exhibits, Edward Hurst Brown, edi-
tor of the Painters Magazine, urged
all to make the most of their oppor-
tunity to go among the different ex-
hibitions and compare the goods OF
various makers.
Gentlemen, you should be from
Missouri and make them show
you,''" he said. you can also gath
er much valuable information and
take 1t home to your associations
especially noticing any new things
which appear"
He urged that wherever possible
orders be placed with the agents, as
| orders placed during the convention
made the makers Tor willing to ex
hibit next year and brought credit
to the convention. A reception was
held in the amusement-room of the
Ocean Hotel, with music and ligh'
refreshments.

by Eisenlohr Of Leipzig and it was
found to contain q rule for making a
square equal in area to c given circle.
1t was not put forth as an original dis

FOR
II THIRTY-ONE
ARE GRANTED

Trenton, July 14-Warm weather
seemed to operate upon the Court of
Pardons to the marked disadvantage
of the 100 convicts whose applica-
lions for pardon or parole came up
yesterday, paroles being granted in
only tw~enty-nine cases. Twelve
capital cases were before the court,
and in only two, those of Samuel
Shinn, OF Mercer county, and John
Delmonico, of Hudson county, was
parole granted. shinn was convict
ed in 1901 for the murder of his en-
ployer, Thomas Apologize, a farmer
of Ellisdale, near this city. Apple
gate was found one morning lying
In one of the stalls of his stable, al
most beneath the feet of a horse,
which had never been known to-
first 1t was thought hat death was
the bruises on the head and the
body led to suspicion of foul play.
There was much feeling In the
neighborhood against-Shinn on ac-
count of alleged trouble in the APP
plegate family, which was a%ttribnt-
ed to him, He was convicted and
sentenced to eighteen years, his
term expiring in 1914. Delmonico
was serving thirty years and his
term would have expired in 1920.
Antonio Sarionelli, the Passaic
county man who at the last session
of the Court of Pardons was almost
released from the state prison
through a mistake in making out
the parole papers, suffered another
disappointment yesterday. He had
been led to believe that his conduct
and that of his counsel in rectifying
the former mistake would operate to
gain him a parole at--this session OF
the court. His case was laid over,
however. He is serving ten years
for keeping a dtsorderly house.
