He spent considerable time in looking
up similar cases and then decided to
seek the advice of Judge Herr before
proceeding. At the end of the confer
ence it was decided that there was no
way In which the men could be legally
held.
Men Have Left City.
1t is pointed out that IL the two men
were held, 1t would be a decision too
far-reaching in its effect. 1t would, 1t

Neither of the men who were in the
taxicab with Savage are in the city.
They left shortly after the killing of
the aged druggist and are now in Sag

TAKES SNOOZE ON
BATTERY WALL; WAKES
UP IN WATERS OF BAY.
Jersey City Man Refuses to
Climb Into ROwbOat-ls
TOWed Ashore.

NEW YORK, Sept 5.-Joseph Plor-
kis, of Jersey City, is good walker
but no swimmer at all; Is obstinate, a
hard worker, but with an infinite ca
pacity of getting tired. In this latter
condition he sat down on a bench at
the Battery early this morning and
went to sleep.
About 6 o'clock impulse told him it
was about time to take walk. He
walked directly over the sea wall and
into the water. He was being carried
down the bay when he suddenly woke
w and gave yell which would have
made the man who invented the meg
aphone wonder why he had ever been
so foolish when there are such good
natural voices in existence.
: Here his obstinacy showed itself for
the first time. He wouldn't get into
the boat or be lifted in when rescuers
got to him. He was towed back to the
wall then, where was lassoed against
his will and dragged up to safety.

POLICE IN SEARCH
FOR MAN SAID To
BE AN |NCENO|ARY
Two Blazes in Somerset Street
House Blamed on Former
Tenant.

The dragnet of the police is set to
catch Joseph Ducks, who is wanted in
connection with fires twice set to the
set street.
A searching investigation by Cap
tain C. Albert Gasser, of the bureau of
combustibles and fire risks, and Plain
clothesnan George Kaas, of the Fourth
precinct, and other officials, has
aroused the suspicion that Ducks may
throw light on the fire that destroyed
the house last night. He is a former
tenant.
Aaron and Abraham Galinlsin, joint
owners of the dwelling, say they were
forced to put Ducks out of the place
because he and his family made trou-
BILE in the neighborhood. An attempt
was made to burn the place Saturday
night. oil-soaked rags were found in
the building and are now in the pos
session of the police.
Captain Gasser was on the scene
early today and ordered the owners
to tear down what remains of the
structure. 1t is beyond repair.
There is no doubt in my mind that
someone set fire to the place." he told
an Evening STAR reporter. 1.-TWO
fires in vacant house within forty
eight hours don't happen accidentally.
find that the former tenant, whose
name I believe is Joseph Ducks, was
put out for disorderly conduct We
shall have him questioned as soon as
he can be found and he will have to
explain his actions of the last two
days"
The two Galinkins had mortgaged the
place to Mary E. Bond, of Lyons
Farms, to the extent of 1,6O0 The
place was valued at $4,000. Insurance
to the amount of $500 or $500 covers the
loss of the rear house.

WILSON CHANGES
HIS MIND ABOUT
AN EXTRA SESSION
Says He Has Decided Not to
COnvOke Legislature for
ReappOrtiOnment.
Especial to the Newark star.I

TRENTON, Sept. 5-There will not
be a special session of the New Jersey
Legislature to reapportion the men,
bers of Congress in this State. This
was made practically certain today by
statement of Governor Wilson. He
declared that while he had not dis
missed the matter from his mind, he
had about decided not to call a special
session.
Politicians here. are of the opinion
that to call the lawmakers together
now. because the Assembly is Demo-
cratic, would be to acknowledge a fear
that the party will not win in Novem-
Der, which concededly would be poor
political policys
The Governor also declared that the
stories that the State House Commits
sion Intended to appoint Fred Nissan.
Democrat of Jersey City to the berth
of State House custodian paying SO, 500
year, in place of John w. Wesenan.
Of Newark, were totally unauthorized.
The State House Commission met to-
day, but the question was not men
toned the Governor said. State
Comptroller Edwards, the other Demo-
cratic member of the commission, de-
clared that he would not move in the
matter until the Governor did. Gov
ernor Wilson will go to Atlantic City
Monday night to speak at a dinner in
honor of John ]. White. appointed by

REF USES To ORDER
DENTISTS BOOKS
GIVEN TO REBELS
Vice=ChancellOr Walker Holds
No Irreparable Damage
Has Been Done.
Especial to the Newark Star. J

TRENTON, Sept. Sin the litigation
between the two factions of the New
Jersey State Dental Society, Vice
Chancellor Walker today refused to
allow a mandatory order against the
defendants, compelling them to turn
over the books, cash and other para
phernalia to the complainants. The
suit was brought in the name of the
State Dental Society against Henry A.
Hull, former treasurer; DR. Charles A.
Meeker. former secretary, and others.
The litigation Is due to a fight in
the society, which eliminated at the
annual meeting in July at Asbury
Park The younger element, which had
been seeking to obtain control, elected
complainants in the action The "Old
Guard" elected officers on July Il and
they as defendants, claim that the
first election was illegal. DIR. William
l. Thompson. of Asbury Park, is the
"insurgent" president. The president
of the regular faction is DR.. William
Hawke. of Pennington
The chief defense of the regulars to-
day was that the suit was not the
action of the New Jersey State Dental
Society, as the society had not author
lied 1t and, therefore, the complainants
had no standing in court. Vice-Chan-
cellor Walker refused a mandatory
order on the ground that no irrepara-
BILE injury had been shown The suit
Will now go to final hearing.

COLLISION KEEPS
LEE JOHNS FROM
GAINING DIVORCE
Vice-ChancellOr Walker Refuses
to Grant Decree for
Separation.
LETTERS FROM WIFE'S
ATTORNEY TO BOWLER
Petitioner Ordered to Pay Mrs.
J0hns's Counsel Fee
of Sl00.

Vice. Chancellor Walker has refused
to grant divorce to Lee r. Johns,
proprietor of the oxford Bowling
Academy, S39 Broad street. on the
ground that there was collusion be-
tween him nd his wife, Mrs. Harriet
E. Johns, in the move for the separa-
ton He has ordered Johns to pay his
wifes counsel a fee of 800. Johns Is
widely known in bowling circles.
Vice-C lancellor Walker, in his
opinion, shows that lawyer in Ellis
worth Kan, where Mrs. Johns was
living, wrote to Johns, referring to
certain letters he (Johns) had written
to his wife and declaring that If these
letters were produced they would de-
feat any decree based upon desertion
This lawyer wrote, also, that If a
satisfactory arrangement could not be
made for the support of Mrs. Johns
and their child he would advise her
to contest The case. The husbands s
counsel replied to these letters, and 1t
is this correspondence which the vice.
chancellor holds proves collusion.
Mr.. Johns is still in Belmar, where
he spent the summer. He Is expected
to return to Newark today.
Frederick F. Guild, who was ap-
pointed counsel for Mrs. Johns, is in
Europe. At his office, however, it was
stated that Mr. Guilds opinion had
been that the case should be dismissed
for collusion and that such determi-
nation would naturally be in favor Of
the defendant in the divorce action.
A htaring was held here before
Alonzo Church, as referee, Frank E.
Bradner appearing for Mr. Johns.
Mrs. Johns and her child are in Ellis
worth. Mr.. Johns is still supporting
them. 1t was an understanding about
almony, the vice-chancellor states his
belief to be, that made Mrs Johns re-
ffain from entering defense, which
her attorney says exists.

1t doesn't matter whether you are

probably have to admit that the die

times every day when you want to
prove that you are right in what you
believe is the spelling of a certain
word.
But the march of the times has
brought many new words and express

which are beginning to be used every
dav in all walks of life, but cannot
be found in even that rather new
