Discovered, He Struck Woman
on Head with Coffee Pot.

CAMDEN, Feb. 11.-Ten years at
hard labor was the sentence imposed
yesterday on George Alderman In the
Camden Court. He was convicted of
breaking into the home of Mrs. Annie
Jennings, 416 North Third street, and
attacking her when discovered.
Alderman acknowledged his guilt.
Mrs. Jennings said that on entering
the house she saw the prisoner In the
room and grappled with hin and was
struck in the face by the man, who
also hit her on the head with a coffee
pot. a
Assistant Prosecutor Mcdonald pre-
scented the police record of Alderman,
which showed he was released from the
State prison at Trenton on January
l6, after having served a term of Ave
year, lacking for good time, on a con
yiction of breaking and entering and
larceny. He was sentenced in the
Criminal Court at Newark on July 8.
1906. Previous to this sentence he had
served a sentence of three years on
conviction for larceny in the courts of
Hudson county In Jersey City.
Judge Joline said he was convinced
that Alderman was a dangerous char
acter and no mercy should be shown.
That when he was given an opportunity
he failed to do right. He then SEN
fenced Alderman to seven years. and
as he was moving away he added the
other three years to his term of i'm
prisonment on the assault charge.

FINISH WORK ON SCHOOL.
Education Board Arranges for
Completion of Building.

The contract for the Manual Train
ing High School, which was awarded
to Frederick Kilgus some time ago,
was signed yesterday at the meeting OF
the Board of Education. The work

trouble will delay the work. The Brick
layers Union has a claim against the
Glen company and threatened to hold
up the work unless 1t was paid. The
board, however, has enough money on
hand to pay the claim of the union
men, and as their claim comes first
according to the law, they have do
cided not to interfere with the compile
ton of the school. e fat q
The board now has s256, 900 m hand
The union mems claim Is $4,000, and
besides that there are liens amount
ing to $4,000 filed with the board. The
Kilgus contract called for s247,0 900. .'

BELIEVE BOY DIED
IN AGONY OF RABIES.

JERSEY CITY, Feb. 11.-Physicians
who were in attendance upon the pa
tient believe that the death of John c.
Kaiser, jr., who died in agony at his
home here Wednesday, was caused by
his being scratched by a small dog
with which he was playing several
weeks ago. In spite of this when the
dogs head was examined at the Board
of Health laboratories no trace OF
rabies could be found. The case has
caused no little mystiication among
those who observed the patients during
his last hours, as he showed every
symptom of being a victim of rabies.
Young Kaiser was a son of former
Sheriff Kaiser, of Hudson county, and
was a student at the Jersey City High
School. The funeral was held yester-
day. M

EX-GOv STOKES
DENIES FAvORING
KIN IN BOND DEAL
Says He Refused to Allow His
Brother to Sell to School
Trustees.
Especial to the Newark st.r.l

TRENTON, Feb. 11.-Former Gov-
n Edward C. Stokes issued a state
ment today with reference to reports
about tho State school fund and the
purchase of securities by the trustees
of II. He defends the action OF the
trustees while he was governor. claims
that the methods followed by the trus-
tees, Of whom he vas one. were always
unusually careful, and that no fayorit-
ism wal ever shown Howard K. Stokes,
his brother, who is a bond broker. The
statement In part follows:
my brother, H. K. Stokes, has been
in the bond business for q number OF
years before and since l was governor.
l had, n have not now, any
financial Interest in his business, direct
or indirect. While he had, or has, the
same right to sell bonds 10 the school
fund az any other bond house, and
While he ID the right to make offer
ings to the trustees, as any other bond
house. / refused TO permit him, after
became governor, TO bid or make offer
ings lest some one might say that there
was favoritism because one OF the
bidders was my brother.
"My Position a DetrIment TO Him."
The fact hat l was governor worked
to his detriment, and not to his advan-
tage. I have always been most careful
In transactions with members of my
WI family, so far as my connection
with public affairs was concerned, and,
indeed. with any corporate institution
with which l was connected, and my
brother has never even had a deposit
In or q loan from the banking institu-
ton OF which l am the head.
THE methods followed by the trus-
tees Of the school fund in the purchase
of securitiee were, in my Judgment
even more careful than the gentlemen
constituting the trustees would exer-
else in their own private affairs. Every
opportunity was given to secure offer
ings from reputable bond houses and
the offerings were always treated or
their merits without favor to any one
and with only one object in view-tht
interests of the State"
