VI. ]. THOMPSON's
CREDITORS PLAN
FOR PARK LEASE
Affairs of South Jersey Finan-
cier Are Thoroughly Con-
sidered at Meeting.

CAMDEN, May 1.-THE creditors OF
William J. Thompson, of Gloucester
City. who has been adjudged a bank
rupt. held a meeting yesterday at the
Camden court house with s. Conrad
OFT, referee in bankruptcy, presiding.
The creditors sanctioned the leasing of
Washington Park, on the Delaware
river, to Herbert T. Stetser, of Haddon
Heights, general manager of the Della
ware River Transportation Company.
Stetser offered to take over the park
for a rental Of $1,000 and to make as
signments to the extent of $4,000, the
improvements to be subject to the ap-
prevail OF the receiver. Stetser will
form a corporation to conduct the park,
and will be required to give a bond for
$4,000 to cover the lease for the season
and one for $4,000 to indemnify the
receiver for accident claims.
The park liquor license expires May
20. Attorney Harvey p. Carr, who rep
resents creditors with claims amount
ing to 5000, called attention to the
fact that Thompson has a life insur-
ance policy for $50, 600. He said this
policy would lapse next Monday for the
non-payment of premiums amounting
to 50, 134.54, and that some friends OF
Thompson, not desiring him to lose out,
have agreed to pay the premiums, pro-
viding the policy is assigned to them
as collateral security. Mr.. Carr stated
that there had already been loaned on
this policy 1880.
H. r. S~tockwell, counsel for h re-
ceiver. said that the steamboat Column
bia, owned by Thompson, had been
iibelled, and asked that the receiver be
given permission to get the Columbia
In shape for government inspection and
also to place the boat in operation. He
said that there are already q number
of charters, and he believed that at
least SIS 900 could be realized by the
operation Of the craft.
MI. Stockwell also spoke of the wharf
property below Market street, Philadel-
phia. He said that there was a mort
gage for $24S,000 held by the President
Life and Trust Company, Of Philadel-
phia, and that they had already fore
closed on the property.
The receiver was also given permits
sion to pay the arTearages due on the
riparian leases along the river front.
MI. Stockwell also informed the cred
itors that the receiver had taken pos
session of the South Jersey Plate Ice
Company, and that the title to this
property was in the name of William
J. Thompson.

RETAIL JEWELLERS SAY
J0BBERS ARE DESPOTIC.
Union Suggested as Remedy at
Annual Dinner.

The depression of the jewelry trade
was emphasized yesterday at the an
nual meeting of the Retail jewelers.
Association of New Jersey, which was
held at the Continental Hotel.
Conrad J.. Brotllerly WAS toastmas-
ter, and during his address he took
the trade is due largely to the lack of
cooperation among the retailers them
selves.
He said that the treatment they
were receiving at the hands of the
manufacturers and jobbers was en-
Etirely their own fault, and they had no
one to blame for 1t. He further said
that by uniting they could force the
manufacturers to accord them the same
treatment that mail order houses and
department stores were receiving.
Steele F. Robert, president of the
American National Retail jewelers. As
ISOLATION, spoke briefly along the same
lines.
The following officers were elected

ROOSEVELT DENOUNCED
AS A FALSE APOSTLE.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 1.-THE
United Mine Workers journal. pub
lished in this city. pays considerable
attention this week to the views of
Theodore Roosevelt concerning the
John J.. Mcnamara case, and in an
editorial by Michael Halapy Roosevelt
is characterized as a false apostle and
as a weak man who has prostituted
his ability and influence to the Ma
tional Manufacturers Association.
"All liberty loving toilers should
show their contempt for Roosevelt's
false professions of friendship" says
Halapy.
In part the editorial says: why
Roosevelt should butt into the Nc
Namara case in the role of contribute
ing editor Of the Outlook n en-
deavor to prejudice the American peo-
pie against the kidnapped labor leader
by saying murder is murder cannot
except that he has p~rostituted his abil-
ity and influence to the National Man
ufacturers' Association. For pelf he
allies himself with the mortal enemies
Of labor and assists them in their
wicked designs upon the lives n lib
critics of its fearless champion.
Roosevelt might have fooled labor
in the past by his lukewarm profess
sions of friendship, but labor has had
its credulity imposed upon SO often
by sneaking d~issemblers that hence
forth it proposes to judge the men who
seek its favor by deeds rather than

SOMEBODY DOWN SOUTH
Evidently has Ii in for George Bussard,
the Popular Conductor of the
Sunny Jim Train

Monday evening about 7:15 as the
Sunny Jim was entering the yards at
Trilby, an unknown party sent a bull
let crashing through q coach window
within a few inches of the head of
Conductor George Bussard, in charge
of the train, who was seated near the
rear of the car. Sitting close to Con-
ductor Bussard was r H Wearn of
Holder en- route home from Tampa.
The ball passed through the window
very close TO the head of the latter,
and had it not been for the fact that
he was leaning back in the seat he
would doubtless have beeen injured.
AS it was, the glass was shattered over
him, and over the adjoining seats in the
coach. The bullet must have passed
out the open window on the opposite
side, as no mark could be found where
il had lodged.
Mr.. Wearn is a stranger at Trilby,
and as no motive for firing at him
could be imagined, there is little doubt
that death was meant for Conductor
Bussard. Some months ago an en-
gineer on this line was shot in his cab
as the train was passing a few miles
east of Trilby on the Sanford branch.
Several passengers We're on the train
when the incident occurred and for a
time much excitement prevailed

A NEW ROAD MATERIAL

B. F. Martindale. of Orlando, who
spends a great deal of his time in this
city looking after his Tampa interests,
appeared before the county commits
sioners on a proposition of making a
trial test of a piece of road building
out Of a composition which Mr. Mar
tindale was exhibiting. Mr.. Martin
dale states that the piece of compost
tion on exhibition was made from the
ordinary sand on the South Florida
roads on which he simply placed GER
tain chemicals. He believes that miles
and miles of highway may be built by
working this chemical into sand down
TO a strata Of some four or five inches.
He believed the composition will be
lasting and that the road may be built
more economically than any other
method.
He is not a manufacturer of the
composite matter, but discovered the
process through accident. having al
lowed accidentally some of the product
that goes into the making of the as
bestos shingle to fall upon the sand.
This formed the composition which Mr..
Martindale had on exhibition. He was
anxious to have the commissioners ex-
pertinent with this kind Of road. The
matter will be taken up at the after
noon session.--Tampa Times.

ways and means for building a parson-

of the church who was detained By the
serious illness of his wife, all the other
officers now in the city were present
The argument in favor Of accepting
the liberal offer of Sister Gary was
opened by Col ]. II. Livingston, who
in most ferveut and eloquent appeal
urged the members if only as a busi-
ness proposition to get busy and fulfill
the conditions ON which they could get
possession of that valuable lot. Mr..
| Frank Gates and Mr.. Harry Cole in be-
| half of the Baraca class also spoke on
the same line. DIR. Christian, Isaac
Stevens, L. F. Ballard and DR.. f. f.

making the point that to lose or deci t
the liberal offer of Mrs Gary would he

favor of going slow. but al the church
has already lost four years and tw7
months of the time specific: in which
to build a church or parsonage and out

speakers led by Pastor Gabby urged
Immediate action. and a motion to that

1t is probable that before many

of track for the Atlantic Coast Line
between Archer and Morriston will be
under way. For a number of years
the Coast Line has been using the
track of the Seaboard Air Line be-
tween the points mentioned, but it is
understood that the lease or agree
ment between the two great railway
systems as to the Joint track" will
expire With nthe near future, and that
the Atlantic Coast Line expects to have
it's own line which will touch at Will
liston and Montbrook, in shape for the
operation of trains before the lease
wit hthe Seaboard expires. Two lines
have been surveyed in connection with
the proposed new road.-Gainesville
