JERSEY NO
LONGER CERTAIN
FOR REPUBLICANS
CONTINUED from First Page,

any material regarding the nature OF
his speeches, or the tack the Republ1-
cans would take. 1t must be admitted
he made a magnificent start and an
abiding impression on his audiences. 1t
is doubtful whether any man on the
stump in New Jersey ever made thir-
teen speeches that could in any way
compare with the intellectual character
or convincing power of the speeches
that Woodrow Wilson has made up to
this time in his campaign. There is
every reason to anticipate (f the re-
marks made by the candidate at diff
ferent times are a ciue) some very in
teresting revelations of the manner in
which the affairs have been admins
tered by the party that has been in
power for the last fifteen years.
1t is apparent since the trip through
South Jersey that the workers of the
Democratic party in all the counties are
fully alive to the splendid chance that
has come to them this year through the
candidacy of Woodrow Wilson. Several
counties seem very certain that there
will be Democrats in the State Senate
mex session occupying chairs h a have
been filled by Republicans for some
years, and there is a good chance In
two counties to elect Assemblymen,
and in another of electing a Demo-
cratic sheriff where a Republican Of
fetal has held sway for some years.
That it is a Democratic year In South
Jersey is the fact hat the Republican
leaders face, and that the landslide
may extend to the congressional cleo
tions is very generally conceded.

BRIDAL COUPLE
HURT AS HORSE
RUNS INTO AUTO
Machine and Horse Collide on
Dark Roadway with
Serious Results.

MOORESTOWN, Oct. 11.-An excit-
ing smash-up occurred on the Bridge
boro road just outside of this town
when an automobile driven by Thomas
Devlin, Of Moorestown. crashed into A
carriage driven by Milton Murphy, of
Fairview. In the carriage with Muir
ply were Miss Agnes Pinkerton, and
on the rear seat Mr.. and Mrs. Walter
Bentliff, a bride and bridegroom Of
scarcely twenty-four hours.
The carriage had no light. and, ac-
cording to most accounts, was on the
wrong side of the road. When the
machine approached the horse became
unmanageable and plunged directly
into the car. The impact completely
demolished the carriage and severely
injured Mr.. and Mrs. Bentliff.
The front part of the machine was
badly wrecked. While badly cut in a
number OF places, the horse will re-
cover.
Injured occupants of the carriage
were taken to the office of DR.. e. r.
Richie, where it was found that both
Mr.. and Mrs. Bentliff had received
fractured ribs, and Mrs. .Bentliff was
severely lacerated about the face.
After the injuries had been dressed
the unfortunate bridal couple, with
Mr.. Murphy and Miss Pinkerton, were
taken to the Murphy homestead at
Fairview by automobile.

MAYOR AGAIN TELLS WHY
HE FAVORS DR.. WILSON.

HOBOKEN, Oct. 11.-Mayor George
Gonzales, the first Republican to bo
elected chief executive of this city in
t~wenty-one years., has just given addi-
tional reasons why he will vote for DR..
Woodrow Wilson, Democrat, instead Of
Vivian M. Lewis, Republican. for gov
ernor of New Jersey.
81 am not going to vote for Lewis"
said Mayor Gonzales. land that Is one
of the reasons l did not attend the
meeting. i am going to give my sup
port to Woodrow Wilson and I do not
care who knows it. / am for Mr.. Will
son because ! believe he will make an
ideal Governor-the kind of a Governor
the people of the State want. 1t is
time the people of New Jersey had a
change. The Republicans have been in
control long enough.
Il want to see the gang who are in
control of the State offices in this
county routed. The prosecutors office
is not being conducted in the interest
Of the people.
II have been reading Mr.. Wilson's
speeches and | am convinced hat he is
the right man for the people. He
should receive the vote of every man
who is in favor of the honest adminis-
tration of State affairs. Woodrow Will
sons word Is as good as his bond and
what he says he will do the people
may be sure will be done"

LONGSHOREM MAN IS
NAMED BY BROKER
IN DIVORCE SUIT
Prosperous Elizabeth Man Says
Wife Left Him to Go
with Brooklynite.

Because of the alleged ove for q
longshoreman instead of her husband
Mrs. Kathleen A. Palmer, of Broom
figures in a divorce suit which will
come up for a hearing before Vice
Chancellor Emery in Chancery cham
bers October 20.
The husband. who is bringing the
suit, lives in Elizabeth, and is a pros
porous insurance broker in New York
city, with an income that is said TO be
about $4,000 a year.
The couple were married in 1901, and
have two children, one a girl of S years
and the other . boy of 5, and lived
happily together until, according to the
papers in the case, Louis Cox, also a
Brooklynite, and a l-ongshoreman by
occupation, came upon the scene. After
that there was dissension and strife
Their troubles eliminated July II
last, when she deserted him and made
her home in a fiat at 1874 Prospect Park
west. Brooklyn, and there entertained
the longshoreman. according to the
counsel for her husband. He put de-
tectives on their track. who, so he is
willing to swear, caught them together
after a trip to Coney Island shortly
before midnight August 20 last. Then
the hush; Id decided TO bring divorce
proceedings, and engaged the services
of Samuel Koestler, of Elizabeth, while
Mrs. Palmer decided to fight through
1. II, Grand, of Brooklyn.
Palmer a Model Husband.
According TO his counsel, Palmer was
a model husband, but his wife would
always quarrel with him when the
longshoreman's name was mentioned,
The husband, he said, strenuously OBJ
jected to his company long before they
became intimate, as he alleges.
1t was on application by Mr.. Brand
today that the story of the Palmers'
marital troubles reached the New Jer-
sey courts. What Mr.. Brand wanted
was an order for alimony and counsel
fees pending the actual disposition of
the case, and he also asked the court
for the custody of the children on be-
half of his client. They are now living
with an aunt in Poughkeepsie n are
well taken care Of there.
None of the affidavits in connection
with the story were read In court to-
day, but an order had been issued di-
recting that the children should be
brought into court. This was not o
by Mr.. Koestler, and for a time it
looked as though there would be an
attachment for contempt of some kind
IN this account MI. Koestler, how
ever, made a strenuous fight and the
court finally, decided that if it should
develop on October % that the pres
enc of the children, both of whom go
to school, was necessary then he would
see to it that they were brought down
from the town on the Hudson river.
This step. If necessary. will be taken
by habeas corpus proceedings, because
they are out of the jurisdiction of the
State.
Vice-Chancellor Emery also told the
lawyers that If the defendant, who has
not yet produced any affidavits in re-
buttal to those of her husband. was
too poor to pay for them he would
issue an order at ono directing the
payment of as much money as may be
necessary. This will come out of the
husbands pockets.

Money, Jewelry and
Polly Disappear.

They drugged us ant then stole our
$500 cash and the parrot" declared
Mrs. Mary Mezyk, who November %
last lived at Sixteenth avenue and
Nineteenth street. The scene was
Judge Jay Ten Eyck's courtroom, and
Mrs. Mezyk was telling a story of an
alleged drugging and robbery at her
home on the niaht of November %, So
rapid was her recital thai Stenog-
rapher Frederick l.. Salmon nearly
with her.
Accuses Men of Robbery.
The men on trial for the robbery are
Peter Yokus, Joseph Splieyocky, Joseph
Weglasz and John Rochinski, and they
are accused by Mrs. Mezyk of robbins

al $4T2, including $500 in cash, four
watches and other jeweiry, and the

Mrs. Mezyk had told Of the events
leading up to the robbery, 10Y the

"Why, Polly you krow what Pol

as she foundered around trying to ex-
plain what she meant.

remarked Judge Ten Eyck, and every
breathed Il sigh OF relief. For a
few minutes the spectators thought
they were going to hear of a fearful
kidnapping case, with Polly as the
kidnappee. They were disappointed.
witness Becomes EntaDgled.
Mrs. Mezyk made a fairly good wit
ness for the state, but when the law
yers for the defense got after her she
was helpless and contradicted herself
repeatedly. She was confronted by a
battery of lawyers, consisting of j. y.
Beecher, Frank NJ. McDermit, William
o. Azzoli and Richard Kahn, and was
forced under the fire of questions to
fall back repeatedly on the answer, |
don't remember"
In reply to a question from Beecher
as to how she knew hat her husband
had $500 in his trousers pocket on
the night of the alleged robbery, she
grew indignant. Why, l am his wife;
why shouldn't | know what money he
has in his pants pocket?"
Later, when asked why she had 50
much jewelry, especially four watches,
which she claims We're stolen, she re-
piled: II like jewelry, and why
shouldn't l have 1t? 1t is nQbody's
business but my own what I do with
my money"
Mrs. Mezyk was on the stand during
the entire morning and will be succeed
ed by her husband. who 1t is expected
will tell the same tale of drugging and
robbery that she did.
