vantage since the development OF the
Kearsaree amygdaloid was entered up

Trenton, Jan. Ex-senator Harry "
Osborne has been selected to preside
over the meeting In Newark tomorrow
night at which Woodrow Wilson will
make his second public speech on the
United States Senatorial situation. The
meeting will be held In the new audi
torium in Orange street and promises
to attract gathering of citizens that
will overflow the capacity Of the hall.
Senator Osborne has received several
hundred letters from Democrats In all
sections of the state asking for tick
cts of admission, but there will be no
tickets issued. The meeting will be an
open one.
Morris County's Democratic organ
ization has declared officially for Mr..
MARITIME for United States Senator. In
resolutions the candidacy Of Mr.. Mar.
tine was Endorsed, and the committee
urged the county's representatives in
the Legislature to use their votes and
influence to bring about his selection.
The ground is taken that the primary
vote showed Mr. MARITIME to be the
choice of the people of the State.

FEARED BLACK
HAND ATTACK
Alfred Boyd Had Peculiar
Experience Last Night.

Fearful that be will be made the
victim Of Black Hand Society, Al
fred Boyd, OF Anboy avenue, Totten-
vile, last night appealed to the police
of the 99th precinct station at that
place for protection. Mr.. Boyd, who
is q machinist employed in shop in
West Twenty street, Manhattan
eommutes every day between Manhat-
tan and Tottenville.
According to- the story told to the
police by Mr.. Boyd, he left his place
of employment as usual last night and
walked to the Twenty-third street sta
tion of the elevated railroad to go to
South Ferry. Upon the station there
were several Italians seemingly bent on
watching for someone. All were talk
ing In excited tones. As he boarded
the train three of the Italians followed
him and arriving at South Ferry they
accosted him at the foot Of the stairs
leading to the street. One Of the Ital.
ians who could talk English better than
the other of the two acted as spokes-
man.
From what Mr.. Boyd says he could
make out the two Italians accuse him
of following them every night from
their work. They presumably take Mr..
Boyd for someone else. As one of them
remarked that he was the man who
worked In Seventeenth street which he
argued with them that they were mis-
taken in the party. Several threats
were hurled at him and Mr.. Boyd said
at times while the Italians surrounded
him that he feared for his life, as one
that they would kill him If
he was the right one.
After an argument of about ten or
fifteen minutes, Mr.. Boyd was let go
with the chance to prove himself not
the party today. Mr.. Boyd will report
the matter to police headquarters In
Manhattan today In an effort to have
the three men apprehended If they
trouble him again.

Trenton, Jan. Ex-senator William
J. Bradley, Of Camden, who is prob.
ably closer to David Baird than any
other member of the Legislature, de-
clares that neither Mr.. Baird nor any
other man has approached him with
the suggestion that he vote for Mr..
Smith for senator. fCritics of MIR.
Baird do not understand him. COM
mented Senator Bradley. He would
be the last man in the world to ask
me to do anything not in accordance
with my convictions. Certainly he
would not ask me to east my vote for
a Democratic senator. That is one mat.
ter in which would resent q sug-
gestion. [ cannot forsee any combine
tion or circumstances which would in.
duce me to vote for Democrat for
United States Senator. 1t appears
to me that the Republican legislators
will vete to this end for q Repubh-
can candidate without any hope of
bringing about his choice.

ERECT TOWERS
FOR GUARDING
OF CROSSINGS
Central Railroad Takes Ac-
tion to Prevent Accidents
in This City.
SMITH AND MARKET SITS.
--WORk UNDER WAY

As a precaution against further
narrow escapes and accidents such
as have occurred at the Smith street
crossing at the Central railroad of
late, the gate houses at Smith and
Market streets are being elevated
about fifteen feet This is being
for men In charge of the gates at
those points. Work is we'll under
way at the Smith street house and a
gang of men have started work to
elevate the house at Market street.
The railroad company hopes by
means OF these improvements to
eliminate to large degree the dam
gers that have been prevalent at
these crossings, especially the one
at Smith street, for sometime past.
The Smith street crossing has
proved especially dangerous to pas
sengers and crews on trolley cars.
A short time ago trolley car half
filled with passengers was almost
struck on Smith street. The gate
man, seeing an oncoming train, low
cred the gates after the car had
started to GROSS the tracks. A prob
able serious accident was thus mar
rowly averted.
BY the elevation of It's gate houses
at these points the railroad company
hopes to place it's gate tenders in a
better position to look for oncoming
trains. The plan is to elevate them
so that they can overlook the curves
at Washington street and near the
Raritan river.
Coupling Breaks.
A coupling directly behind the
engine of southbound passenger
train passing through here at 9:2C
o'clock this morning broke, causing
the train to be stalled at New Bruins
wick avenue for about half an hour
Traffic on the southbound track was
held up for that length of time until
repairs were made.

{From the NEWS Correspondent
Washington, Jan. 13:-An occa-
sional nomination Of a collector OF
customs for some port is sent to the
United States senate, but the city of
Perth Amboy has as yet failed to be
named in any of these nominations.
United States Senator Kean has
nothing to volunteer In the way of
information as to whether or not the
name of his staunch supporter,
Robert Carson, will be sent In for
another term or not.
The continued absence of Theo-
dore Strong, the reputed leader Of
Middlesex county Republicans, in ad-
dition to the delay in sending in any
nomination, gives rise to the impress
