MEAT PACKERS LOSE
The FIRST BLOOD
Demurrer OVGrFulGd and
Must Go to Trial

Chicago, March 22.-The indicted
packers lost their fight against going
to trial on the indictments secured
several months ago, when Judge Car
penter in the district court here to-
day Overruled their demurrer to the
charges, and held that the immunity
granted by Judge Humphrey in 1906
did not apply to the present charges
Judge Carpenters decision Went
into the controversy, relating to i'm
munity with great care.
In brief, the packers position was
that any conspiracy that might have
existed was the plotting done prior
to Judge Humphreys immunity decis-
ion, and that the immunity from pros
ecution granted them extended over
all future time, so long as the acts
covered by the 1906 decision remained
the same.
AS to the contention of the defense
that the conspiracy ended with the
first plotting, Judge Carpenter ruled
that so long as the acts complained OF
continued the conspiracy remained IN
effect.
In addition, the offenses of the
packers prior to their immunity and
from the criminal responsibility for
which they We're freed by the Hum
phrey decision, were defined by the
court as none the less criminal in
themselves. He said they could 1e
used in prosecutions which were pred
icated on a continuation of the Of
fense.

PLAY SCORES
At THE B!JOU

At the Biiou theatre for this week
the Miller Stock Company are offer
ing the great comedy drama, "a
Soldiers Sweetheart" That the
people who frequent the playhouse
were fully satisfied with this weeks
production was demonstrated by the
amount of applause given last night.
The part of Teddy O'Malley," as
taken by Glare Evans, is worthy of
note as is the role of ''Victor Bel
mont" by Al. Deavitt. The charac-
ter of Joseph Sprackling," as enact
ed by Samuel C. Miller, was very
good and Archie Allen eXcelled in
the role of benjamin Lowell"
Babette this week is seen as
kate Tyson" a part hard to play,
vet handled in a satisfactory manner
by her. Maurice jenkins, as Tommy
SDrackling," was very good, and
Florence Pinckney in the role of
elsie Lowell was pleasing. Miss
Marie Harcourt won much laughter
by her way of playing Jane" Next
week the great sensational drama,
The Man Of Mystery" will be pre-
scented.

MRS. ASTOR COMING BACK.


Philadelphia, June CT long for my
old Philadelphia home. Please open
the old place and let me have a little of
the old life"
These words are quoted from a letter
Mrs. Ava Willing Aston, former wife
of Colonel John Jacob Aston, Is said
70 have written here.
They are regarded as significant,
coming In announcement Of her return
shortly from London so soon after the
snub Queen Mary Is alleged to have
given her a few days ago.
II am sick and tired OF English So
ciety," Mrs. Astor is further quoted as
writing. "The women of the present
English court so dislike American wo-
men and everything American that
there is absolutely no enjoyment there.
"Of course, Queen Mary is the shin
ing light by which all English women
trim their lamps. If she looks with
nonseelng eyes or with lip ~upcurled
every other English woman will do the
same.
Unfortunately, many Of us have had
domestic troubles which, while through
no act Of our own, Immediately are
grasped upon with which to make
capital and often to humiliate us"

CORPORATIONS OPPOSED
TO STREITWOLF BILL
cFrom the Nh VS. Correspondsnt.o

Trenton, June G:-Opportunities for
unending litigation, declared the repre-
sentatives of the corporations at the
hearing before Governor Wilson yester-
day, would be opened by the StreitwoIf
bill, allowing personal representatives
to sue for damages by reason of the
death of the person they represent. The
amount of mental anguish caused by an
accident, they asserted, cannot be meas
ured in money and they believed the
bili a bad one. w. Holt Apgar, repre-
senting the Pennsylvania Railroad, the
Lehigh Valley and the Mercer Aut0mO-
bile Club, believed the bill would give
an opportunity for grave yard in
suraDce. George n. Orcott spoke for
the Erie, Lawyer Hoffman for the Pub
lie Service and Lawyer Reynolds for the
Jersey Central and the ?. & r.
The same lawyers also spoke against
the bill requiring railroads to pay their
employees twice a month, on the ground
of the increased cost of such a plan
and that the railroads in particular
should not ne legislated against. Rail
readers explained that the cost Of living
was greater for them because they could
not pay cash as they had to wait so
long for their money.
Mayor Gregory, of East Orange, Wa
ter Commissioner Winery and City
Counsel D. Whitney Borden urged the
Governor to sign the bill permitting
East Orange to lay water pipes without
acquiring land.

AFTER SEWER
Public Hearing Tonight by
Woodbridge Committee.
gpecfc1t to the EVENING NEWS

Woodbridge, June 6:-There is
another controversy on between the
taxpayers of Woodbridge Township
and the township committee. This
time it Is over a sewer in Sewaren
and tonight a public hearing will be
held in Town Hall for the purpose
of hearing those opposed to the i'm
provement. If the public hearing
Compares with the one held on May
Is, to discuss the road contracts, 1t
will go down in history as a strong
link in the chain of Woodbridge ;
current events.
SeWaren needs a sewer. Everyone
agrees to that. The township COM
mittee has decided the said sewer
shall drain into Woodbridge creek
1t will be laid from Mill Bridge to
West avenue a distance of about one
thousand feet, that being the most
acceptable place for the SANE. Mrs.
lMcVicar. who resides and owns con-
siderable land along the course men
toned, does not agree with the com
mittee in every particular AID has
secured enough supporters, manY
think, to cause the latest plans Of
the Woodbridge officials to hinge in
a balance and await the outcome of
another public hearing.
1t is understood Mrs. McVicar has
communicated with the State Board
OF Health supplying that honorable
body with facts in the case. While
no opinion has been handed down
by the State Board, members of the
township committee stated this
morning they could drain the sewer
into the creek, as mentioned, and
Istill conform with the states sani-
tary code, providing there was no
opposition from the property own
ers along the course
In the advent of the crowd tonight
being too large for the Town Hall,
the fire house In School street will
be thrown open for the use of the
dissatisfied taxpayers and the COM
mittee.

IMPORTANT MATTERS
FOR BOARD OF HEALTH

Several matters of Importance will
come up before the Board of Health
at it's regular meeting tonight, in
city hall, according to statements
made by the commissioners this
morning. One of the questions of
import is the complaint against
Johan Jensen, which has been be-
fore the department for some time,
but final action continually deferred.
1t is understood Commissioner P.
N. Kennedy, chairman of the plumb
ing and sewers committee, who ask
ed Inspector John Kerr for a minute
report of the complaint registered
against Mr.. Jensen for failure to Sc
cure plumbing permits, will recon-
mend tonight that severe measures
be taken in the case.
Another matter to be aired will be
the necessity for all complaints or
letters to the board being signed
hereafter, or no attention will be
given the matter. This stand fol-
lows a successful ''steer" handed to
the department Saturday.
No attempt has been made, since
the first failure, to elect Andrew Nc
Cabe, Jr., of Elm street, Office
clerk. 1t is understood President
Justus Kaletsch lacks enough votes
to put his pet motion through. The
commissioners favor, as a whole,
the creation of such an office, but

HURT BY FALL

Martin Denko in Critical
Condition in Hospital.
cnec,nlrntne hKENLNG NEWA

Special TO the L VIEWING We
Roosevelt, June 6-Martin Denko,
a resident of Lorch street, met with
a serious accident some time before
2:3O o'clock Sunday morning. He
was found by Marshal Bradley and a
citizen about that time lying, prac-
tically unconscious, outside of his
boarding house. The officer notified
the people of the house and he was
carried inside by three friends.
1t was thought at the time he was
drunk but owing to his groans and
apparently serious condition DR..
Jacoby was sent for. The physician
came to the conclusion that the man
was suffering from a fractured spine
and other serious injuries and took
him on the II A. M. train to Eliza
beth, where he was removed to the
General Hospital. He is now in a
very precarious condition and his
recovery is not expected.
From inquiries made it would ap-
pear that he man went home under
the influence of liquor and 1t Is
thought he went out on the roof of
the porch to sleep, but missing his
footing plunged to the street below.
He Is Of Hungarian decent and has
resided here off and on for many
years.

HALF SESSIONS
ARE IN DOUBT
Real Warm Weather First,
Says Supt. ShulI.

S. E. Shull, superintendent of pub
lie schools, said today that there
would be no short sessions" until
the weather becomes warm, or days
like the last two are no more.
1t was not until June 16 did the
short sessions" start last year,
which was considered very late, and
the scholars only enjoyed a week of
half holidays before the term closed
on June %.
The shorter hours, when they
start, will be from eight O'Clock in
the morning until noon. The regu-
lar hours at present are from nine
o'clock to 11:40 in the morning;
then from l:10 P. NJ. until 500 P.
NJ. The school authorities believe
as much work can be done in the
shorter session as the n enjoyed
now.

SAY FIRE HOSE
IN POOR SHAPE
Chief Rocks Says New Sup
ply Is Needed.

Practically an entire new supply
of fire hose is needed in this city
according to Patrick Rocks, chief Of
the fire department, who, together
with Alderman Henry w. Sandbeck,
Jr., made an inspection on Saturday.
This fact has been known for some
time to a number of hremen and
others who have watched the work
Of the department. One man who
claims to be an expert on fire hose
says almost every length the city
owns is not in proper condition to
stand steamer pressure. Former
Chief Theodore e. Anderson de-
clared yesterday that much OF 1t IS
hardly fit for use, which he claims Is
due to improper handling.
Chief Rocks recommends the pur-
chase of 10000 feet Of new hose,
He declares there is hardly 500 feet
of real good hose in the department
at the present time and says each
time a steamer is used to pump into
a long line several lengths burst.
He maintains that all the hose the
city owns should be capable of with
standing the pressure from a steam
err with the flow stopped at the nOz-
zle. Mr.. Anderson claims stoppage
at the nozzle causes considerable
hose to burst and then improper
care, due to being thrown to one
side without attention for a month
at a time, causes the rubber to rot.
He says that with paid c~aretakers in
the houses in the future hose and
apparatus will no doubt be well
taken care Of.
In making the recent inspection ii
was also seen that the repairs being
made to the various fire houses were
urgently needed. Otherwise the re-
spective companies are pretty well
supplied, the officials believe.
