AT
SCHOOL NO. 8
Nathan Roth and Max
Leichtman Will Supply.

Contracts were awarded by the
Board of Education last night to Max
Leichtman and Nathan Roth for new
furniture in the addition Of public
school No 8. Plans and specifica-
tions for the enlargement of the high
school were discussed and referred
to the building committee. The
board instructed Clerk Colyer to ad-
vertise for bids for the addition to
the high school, to be submitted at
the next regular meeting.
After the longest executive ses-
sion that the present board has ever
held, contracts for desks, chairs and
kindergarten tables were given out.
Max Leichtman Will furnish all the
desks for the new addition at No. s
and teachers chairs, and Nathan
Roth, the kindergarten tables and
teachers revolving chairs.
After disposing of the bids the
proposed addition to the high school
was discussed. Architect J. K. Jen-
sen explained the plans and speciti-
cations as approved by the state
board.
After thoroughly going over them
the board decided to submit them to
the building commlttee lot IuflAeT
consideration. Upon he approval of
consideration. Upon the APPROVAL of
the plans by this committee, Clerk
for bids.
The plans have been approved as
the architect has submitted them
with but one exception. At first 1t
was thought by several of the mem
bers that the laboratory could be
placed in the attic and to this effect
Mr.. Jensen conferred with the state
board. The state board would not
allow this concession, explaining that
the ceilings should be at least twelve
feet while under existing conditions
they are only nine feet. The lobara-
they are only nine feet. The labora-
floor as planned by the board.
A budget of the expenses for the
past year was made up at last night 6
session but will not be given out un-
til approved by the Board of Esti-
mate. The new addition to the high
school will by no means mar the
architectural effects of the school
as the new part will be erected on
the same lines as the present.

BARN ON FIRE
At DRY DOCKS
Origin Is Mystery-- Chimney
Fire Last Night.

Fire of a mysterious origin called
the fire department to a barn at 80
Broad street, owned by the Perth
Amboy Dry Dock Company, shortly
after o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Efficient work ON the part of the fire
men Of this city coupled with the
the building. Mrs. Blatt was in the
rear of her hotel at Front and Broad
streets, when she saw smoke and
flames issuing from the barn. She
at once communicated with the Off
cials Of the dry dock company, who
sent In an alarm. The companies
quickly responded and extinguished
the Blaze after much difficulty as the
loft Of the barn was filed with hay.
May Have Been Incendiary.
Upon investigation Chief Theodore
Anderson ascertained that the
building ignited from pile of rub
bish on the grounds in the rear of
the stable. How the pile of rubbish
caught fire is a mystery, as no one
was working around the building at
the time AS yet the chief does not
know if the place was set on fire by
some one who held spite against the
company, or by an accident.
The fire started in the rear of the
building adjoining the yard of Jo-
seph Meelheim, in 429 Front street,
and burned its way up to the loft
through the beams. Damage to the
extent of $50 was caused.
Fire Last Night.
The department was again called
out at 7:40 o'clock last night. A
chimney fire at 161 Chauncey
street, was the cause. John Muir
doch and family occupy the house,
which is owned by William Harding.
No damage was done.

MAY FINE The
LABOR LEADERS
Justice Wright Acts FolIew-
ing Court Decision.
Special b. United Press Wire.


Washington, May ia commits
sion was appointed today by Justice
Daniel Wright, of the district su-
preme court, to determine whether
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison, the
labor leaders, were guilty of con-
tempt, and upon the commission S
decision he will base further action
in the case. Justice Wright is pro-
ceeding on the instruction of the
United States Supreme Court, in the
decision yesterday, which set aside
the Jail sentence, but clearly indi-
Gated that 1t did so without preju-
dice.
According to Wright, the supreme
court left open the possibility of
Wright himself, ordering contempt
proceedings against these men for
falling to obey an injunction issued
by him. The commission members
are Attorneys J. ] Darlington, who
was counsel for the labor leaders;
Daniel Davenport, who was con-
nected with the prosecution, and
James Beck, who was also
said to have been connected
with the Bucks Stove and
Range Company, of st. Louis.
Wright's order authorizes the com
mission to investigate the entire
proceedings.
"It appears said Justice Wright,
that Gompers, Mitchell and Nor
rison are guilty of contempt regard

and are made punishable under its
terms

HARRY COOK
ON DEFENSE
Lawyers Case Is Resumed
in New Brunswick.
Special to the EVENING NEWs.


New Brunswick, May 16:-The trial
of Harry Cook, lawyer of this city, on
trial for alleged securing of money
under false pretenses was continued to-
day before Judge DAILY and jury.
Cook represents himself, and made a
brief opening this morning. He says
as defense, that the money was bor-
rowed from Mrs. Walter Church, of this
city, in good faith with no intention of
giving her worthless securities. Cook
claimed his relations with the Church
family were such that no securities
were necessary
1t looked, when the case opened, that
the trial would have to be postponed
again owing to the illness of William
j. Snedeker, of Prospect Plains, fore
man of the jury. He caused a pre-.
vious adjournment, the excitement in
court being his undoing. After a con.
sultation with the judge today Saedek.
er consented to remain.

The Courts Decision.

Washington, May 16.-The Standard
on Company of New jersey, "a thes.7cff
the gigantic trust comprising thirty
three allied corporations and repre-
senting an aggregate capital of $780,
000, 600, must effect a dissolution Its.
business must be restored TO the sub
sidiary concerns.
That Is the decision of the United
States supreme court.
In determining that the Standard
Oil company is a monopoly the su-
preme court went further than many
legal experts expected.
The opinion virtually leaves nothing
10 add in the case of the American
Tobacco company, whose dissolution
is urged on the ground of it being
monopoly.
The dissolution of the Standard on
company was based on two legal rea-
sons:
First-That 1t is a combination in re-
straint of trade under the first section
of the Sherman act
Second.-That because of its activities
As combination it has become a mo-
nopoly in restraint of trade under the
second section of the Sherman act
The decision of the court WIS read
by Chief Justice White. Seven of the
associate justices concurred both as to
finding of fact and the application of
law.
Justice Harlan alone dissented He
agreed with his colleagues as to con-
clusions, but radically differed as to
the construction of law.
One OF the most nota bic features of
the decision was the Interpretation of
the Sherman law so as to limit its ap-
pEcation to acts of undue" restraint
of the trade and the chief Justices
references TO 'rea sonable" and '+an-
reasonable" restraint Great hopes hae
been expressed in some quarters thai:
the law would be defined so as not tG
interfere with honest business"
Many believe the rule of reason" Rp.
piled by Chief Justice White is an an
swer TO these hopes.
Because Of the double affirmation
the enormous effect Of the opinion Is
made to cover the final conclusions ez.-
pected In the tobacco trust cases. i
conservative estimate is that 1900
holding companies, having more than
5000 subsidiary concerns and repre-
senting $4,000. .O00,0 900 of capital, win
be directly affected
In some minor matters the decree of
the lower court was modified. The
most important modification is that
SIX months is allowed for the reorgani-
cation Of the Standard OIL company.
The supreme court held that thirty
days, the period originally fixed, was
too brief

to be given a rig to answer alarms,
bat such effective work has been ac-
complishea by the chief arriving at
the scene of the blaze in its infancy
that the council has taken this action
to give the new chief the same ac-
commodations.
