DEATH NO LONGER
THE TWIN SISTER
OF CONSUMPTION
OF $40 Cases. Newark Anti
tuberculosis Association Re-
ports Only 62 Died.

Ten years ago when a man con-
tracted consumption his family laid
him on a bed and prepared for o
funeral because they knew no hope of
a cure.
The report of the Newark Anti
tuberculosis Association today shows
that of 549 cases given direct attention
by the society for the past year 14S
have been discharged as cured, either
by the association or the hospitals or
by the Board of Health; 272 are still
under treatment with fair hope of re-
covery and the death list of the Great
White Plague has sunk to &C..
Former Governor Franklin Murphy
presided over the meeting of the asso-
citation last night at which these glow
ing reports were made. But 1t is de-
clared that money must be had to
reach at least 6S per cent. of consump-
tive patients and get them into the
hospitals and the association advocates
the compulsory transfer of patients to
hospitals when they cannot be treated
in their homes.
Fifty-six patients were cared for by
the association at the Day Camp dur
ing the year. The Newark clinic dur
ing the year examined 400 cases, while
the Glen Gardner clinic had e83 ex-
aminations of cases made. 1t is neces-
sary that a modern ~dispensary be
erected for the carrying on of the ex-
animation work in the city, the report
states.
Working with the Board of Health,
the association sees that every house
in which a death by tuberculosis is re-
ported is disinfected throughout. The
association through the distribution of
warning cards and other methods has
been Instrumental in bringing about
national abatement in the splitting
habit on the streets of the city.
During the year the nurses of the as
ISOLATION made 1887 visits to patients
under h care of the society in addi-
ton to 1,l18 visits to places where they
suspected cases of the disease. An
other work of the association which
has done great good to the city is that
of the educational department, which
has conducted publicity campaigns, lee
lures and meetings to illustrate the
work and the plague which 1t is fight
ing. These lectures and exhibitions
been carried on in the schools.
churches, factories and public places.
In addition to these methods posters
have been placed on conspicuous sign
boards.
Former Governor Franklin Murphy
was reelected to the presidency of the
association. Other officers of the Or
ganization were also reelected. They
are: Vice-president. Justice Francis j.
Swayze; secretary, Ernest d. Easton.
and treasurer, j. William Clark.

NEWARK SLEUTHS NAB
THIEF NOT SUSPECTED.

The self-confessed feather thief"
John Johnson, a negro, who was arrest
ed by Detectives CORDIALLY and Pagan,
was today held for extradition. The
arrest of this man will aid the police in
bringing TO light a systematic theft of
many expensive plumes from New York
wholesale houses.
The police have been on the lookout
for a feather thief, and had a descrip-
ton of a man suspected. The detec-
tives, working On this description. saw
the negro in Market street last night
and brought him to headquarters,
where he at first denied being the thief
and said that he was only disposing of
the feathers. He had one valued at
SIG in his possession.
Johnson lives at 10 Maiden lane. He
is 20 years old. He says that he has
been a porter working for Sc a week in
the wholesale feather house of William
Boehm, 81 West Thirty-fourth street,
New York.
The firm had no idea that 1t was be-
ing robbed until informed by the de-
tective bureau last night. The detec-
tives worked on their own initiative,
having been told hat a negro had been
trying to dispose of valuable feathers.

TWO AMBULANCE
DRIVERS To APPEAL
FROM DISMISSAL
Deny They Were Guilty OF
Neglect of Duty Charged
by Hospital.

The Board of Health at a special
meeting last night decided to dismiss
B. Arthur and John e. Durham. City
Hospital chauffeurs, who were sus
pended March 9 for alleged neglect of
duty. The special hearing was given
at the request of Superintendent c. t..
Talbot, and after the trial the men
were dismissed. The brothers were
represented by e. G. Clifford. City At
torney Boggs represented the board.
Mr.. Clifford declared that he would
take the matter TO the courts.
The charges were read, and MI.
Boggs asked John e. Durham to make
a statement. He denied the charges
and said that at various times he had
asked Mr.. Talbot to make needed re-
pairs to the two ambulances. He de-
clared that he had asked for gasoline
with which to clean the engines, but
did not get 1t. because of the fire laws,
which did not permit the use of gaso-
line In h garage.
A little sQuabble ensued between Mr..
Boggs and Mr.. Clifford. Clifford per-
sisted In talking for his client. and
Mr.. Boggs objected. Commissioners
Baker allowed the counsel to talk for
the chauffeur. Jacob L. Mason, OF n
Maxwell Automobile Company, denied
the statements of the chauffeurs that
the machines had been defective when
delivered. This caused a little scrap
between him and the defendants.
Mason Has to Tell All.
After hearing most of the testimony
Mr.. Boggs asked Mason If he had ever
had a conversation with the chauf"
feurs as to what they o do in case
the Board OF Health did not increase
their salaries. Mr.. Mason did not wish
to answer. Mr.. Clifford declared that
this had no bearing on the case. but
It was decided that Mason tell all he
knew of the matter.
Mason then told that B. Arthur Dur
Lam had come to his garage on Halsey
street and told him that there was
trouble in the hospital between his
brother, himself and the superinten-
dent and said that he would tell the
papers all about II. Mason advised
against this. The chauffeur then de-
clared, he said, that he woul not work
so hard for SO little money and that he
wanted help.
DR.. Wrightson asked Mason if ii
were not true that the men told him
that in the event of their not getting
more money they would let the ma
chimes go to the devil. Mason said they
did not, but that they did say that the
board could go there unless their re-
quest for an increase was granted.
B. Arthur Durham denied ever talk
ing on the subject with Mason. John
e. R~ossbach. the City Hospital washer.
was asked what his duties were. He
explained that it was his business to
clean the machines when they came in
and also to clean up the garage. He
said that he also cleaned DR.. Meeker's
machine on a number of occasions. DR..
Meeker then said that he o his car
there at the the request of one OF the
chauffeurs TO make a slight repair and
then Rossbach asked If he could clean
the machine. DIR. Meeker said he paid
Rossbach for his work.
1t took the board fifteen minutes to
reach the decision to dismiss the men.

HUDSON PROBE
DEFENSE To Be
ENDED TOMORROW
Hearing in Court House Investi-
cation Before Justice Swayze
Is Nearing Close.

JERSEY CITY. April 1~4.-According
to Merritt Lane, counsel for Architect
Roberts in the Hudson county Court
Houce probe. the case for the defend
ants will in all probability be conclud-
ed tomorrow, when the investigation
will be continued before Justice
Swayze.
The rebuttal testimony already given
for the defense c~ontradicts definitely
and specifically much of the sensa-
tional revelations that were made by
the probers. Startling evidence had
been given by an expert that between
200 and 400 pieces of cracked marble
had been used in the building, and
that many of the fractures had been
patched with so commonplace n
laughable a filler as ordinary putty.
After looking at a crack near his own
chair Justice Swayze himself had said:
1T looks as if there is putty in there,
gentlemen"
H. A. Farley, lifelong stone expert, Of
Peoria. ILL.,, fatty denied all this.
ut is impossible to erect a building
such as this without some cracks" he
said; land a perfectly legitimate fill
ing has been used-the one that is al
ways used, in fact"
Kerr,s Testimony Important.
Norman Kerr. the superintendent in
charge of the eastern construction
work of John Gnl & Sons, made so
pronounced an impression for the de-
tense that James Cameron, who pre-
pared the case for the probers, said:
That's a witness to be reckoned
The trend of Mr.. Kerr's testimony
was to show that, although certain
peculiarities in the bidding apparent
ly existed, the work done by the Gill
people was we'll worth the amoun paid
the county. To attract attention
to thef Gill bid Immediately, so Mr..
Kerr stated, a trick had been used, the
explanation of which caused no little
amusement. A remarkably low figure
had beer given on the lump sum"con-
tract, but what was lost on this was
made up on the unit price, figures,
the trend of which could not be dis
covered without a great deal of tabu-
and study. All this, however,
had served to further entangle the al
ready intricate subject when the inves-
was begun.
James Cameron, when interviewed by
a STAR reporter after the hearing
Tuesday, stated that he did nc. think
the prober's case had been materially
affected by the testimony of the de-
experts, although he was willing
to concede that Norman Kerr had pre-
scented the most material evidence in
the minutes for Architect Roberts and
staff of counsel.
