PlCKETING CASE TO

Must Show Why Injunction
Should Not Be Granted.

Vice-Chancellor Howell has fixed
April 25 as the return day of the rule
TO show cause why the Pattern Makers
Association, of New York and vicinity
should not have an injunction issued
against it, restraining the members
from picketing the Worthington Hy-
drauIic Works, in Harrison. Since the
W~orthington people ~nnounce several
months 6 that they would u an
open shop as far as the patterns are
concerned, the association has had
some of its members on picket duty
at the big plant.
The order already signed in chan
Gerry restraints these members from
congregating at the works and intimi-
dating the employees If the company
win out on II return day the rule
Will be made permanent.
Those named in the order are these
officers of the association: John Hill,
president; Arnold B Macstay, business
agent; Samuel Mcguire, chairman

ing secretary; David Jamison, financial
secretary, and James Turnbull, execu-

WRONG,
IS OPINION Of
JUDGE GEO.. GRAY
Tax Amendment Is Practical.
Surrender of States Right
to Federal Government.

Exceptions to Governor Wilson's atti-
tude on the proposed income tax
amendment are taken by Judge Gray.
of Wilmington, Del, of the United
States Circuit Court, in a letter which
the jurist wrote to Austen G. Fox, of
New York.
Judge Gray expresses the opinion that
Governor Wilson was mistaken in his
short message to the Legislature OF
New Jersey when he said that the
States would be sharing n of the few
powers of taxation with the Federal
government. Judge Gray, in his letter,
shows tina the power will no be
shared, but will he practically entirely
surrendered by lie States to the
Federal government.
The Judge, in his letter, among other
things, wrote:
a Surrender.
1.-The proposed amendment is not a
mere grant of power to the general
government. 1t is a practical surrender
Of the power heretofore reserved to the
States. What the States give in this
instance. they practically deprive them
selves of, for, as l have pointed out,
it Is not a mere sharing by the States
of this power with the general govern
ment, as the necessity of avoiding an
oppressive double taxation would make
It necessary for the States to yield to
the paramount authority of the ma
tional government. l think, therefore,
Governor Wilson, for whose opinion I
have the highest respect, was mistaken
in his short message to the Legislature
of New Jersey in saying: They (the
States) will thereby be sharing with
the Federal Government III of the
few powers of taxation which, under
the latest decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States in that mat
ter, they may now regard themselves
as entitled tc exercise, to a certain ex-
tent, exclusively
Il think / have shown that the power
will not be shared, but will practically
be entirely surrendered by the States.
The Governor may well say Tt will I'M
doubtedly be an act of great liberality
on the part of the States to concede
it,"

DEAR BROTHERS LOSE
in SUIT AGAINST MAYOR,
[From a SAD correspondent.

TRENTON, April 1.-THE mandamus
proceedings brought by the Evening
Journal Association of Jersey City
against Mayor George Gonzales to
compel the latter to sign warrants
drawn by the city clerk and treasurer
for the payment of bills owing to the
Evening Journal for the publication of
special election notices in 1909, was by
an opinion filed in the Supreme Court
today dismissed. The order for the
work, according to the opinion. was
given verbally by the city clerk, and
when the bill was presented the Board
OF Freeholders refused to approve and
payment was refused.
Following the refusal of the freebol-
ders to pay the bill a suit was brought
against them and a Judgment was rem
dered for the Evening Journal. Later
an act was passed through the Legista-
ture so as to enable the payment OF the
moneys from the city. they having con-
lracted the debt. The Supreme Court
today, however. holds that the latter
act is detective in that it's title is mis-
leading, and. further, that it is special
legislation. Because of this the anpli-
cation for a Hlandamus is refused.

Kie, who is attending the war
maneuvers at San Antonio, Tex, is
making an extra effort to have every
man of this battalion on the foor on
Thursday evening, when his battalion
is to be inspected. Every company
commandant feels hat it would be a
fine compliment to Major MacKie on
his return tn latter part of thls month
to find that in his absence his battalion
had secured 100 per cent. Every man
is ordered to be in line promptly at s
o'clock.

TUMULTY To RUN
JUDGE sULL|VAN'S
COMING CAMPAIGN
Aspires to Leadership of Hud-
son COunty-Fears Re-
publican Victory.
Especial to the Newark STAR

JERSEY CITY, April 12.-The New
ark STARS expose of the attempt of
Governor Wilson's private secretary,
Joseph P. Tumulty, to usurp the leader
ship of the Democratic party in Hud-
son county, is the all-absorbing politi-
cal topic here.
Since the death of Leader Robert
Davis. the big Six" have been hand
ling the reing.
Petty jealousies. with q knowledge of
startling disclosures concerning the
management of some departments I'M
der party control, made the selection of
an individual leader out of the ques-
ton. Instead the idea of vesting the
control of the organization, such as 1t
was, in the hands of a committee con-
sisting of the old campaign committee
of five with the county chairman added
was evolved.
Committee Named.
The name was changed to organiza-
ton and campaign committee The
members are Sheriff James ]. Kelly,
County Collector Stephen NJ. Egan.
City Clerk Michael Fagen and Tax
Commissioner James J. Henneesy, of
this city; Street Commissioner Patrick
j. Griffin, of Hoboken, and County
Register John J. Mcmahon, of North
Bergen.
Big things were expected of the big
Six" but up to date 1t has been DOR
mant and bids fair to remain 30.
While the five or six Democrats are
booming themselves for h mayoralty
the Republicans. not at all awed
by the landslide of last Novem-
Der, began to groom candidates on
all sides with County Judge Robert
Carey, a former law partner of Vice.
President~Robert S. Hudspeth. Of the
National Democratic Committee, wall
in the lead. A Republican victory In
Jersey City, lei alone Hudson county,
mex November might blight the presi-
Dental aspirations of Governor VIII
son in 1912 and that would never do,
Tumulty argues.
Three weeks ago, following the IN
ference with Governor Wilson, came
Judge Sullivan's announcement of his
candidacy for mayor. That was just
what Leader" Tumulty wanted, and
just as soo as the legislative session
ends the new leader will be prepared
to formally open the Sullivan cam
paign.

CORRUPT PRACTISES BILL
MAY BE REPORTED TODAY.
[From a stan correspondent.l

TRENTON, April 12.-There was a
strong probability this morning that
h long delayed corrupt practises bill
would appear in the Senate this after
noon. -.
The Simpson corrupt praetises act
which was passed by the House some
weeks ago, has not beer admitted to
daylight since 1t reached the Senate.
and there is a supposition here that n
is stone dead.
Senator Prince is the author of the
new bill n the committee had If
under consideration this morning. SEN
ator Bradley is chairman of three OF
the most important Senate committees
and the fact Is that he has had mora
work assigned to him than should be to
any single senator. 1t was necessary

should be delayed or reported without
proper consideration. Hence the delav
