BRUNSWICK STRIKERS
RUSH THE JAIL AND
THE SHER|FF'S OFFICE
Much Rioting and Disorder at C0un-

pIoVes Of Johnson & Johnson Out.
FEAR TROUBLE THIS AFTERNOON

They ran through George street,
many of them armed with sticks and
most of them waving copies of a
Hungarian newspaper which the out
of town agitators had circulated
among them. They swept through
George street. The advance guard,
thinking that the police had taken
the girls to jail, turned into Pater-
son street, swept up to the county
Jail and swept right in upon Jail
Warden Hildebrand, who was taken
by surprise.
When the crowd of girls reached
the jail they rushed up the steps and
entered the sheriff's office. The
sheriff was away and finding no one
there they proceeded to throw open
the windows and with yells of de-
light went further into the building.
After leaving the office of Sheriff
Albert Bollschwetler the strikers
were brought fact to face with War
den Hildebrand. The warden did
his best to stop their progress, but
without avail, and the police had to
be called to clear the building.
Mr.. Hildebrand can speak Hunga-
rian and he quickly convinced the
girls that the prisoners were not

Some Predictions

Clark on the third ballot, Wilson
on the fourth or fifth, a dark horse
after the sixth fruitless vote, these
were some of the many predictions
voiced this afternoon before the
convention met.
Clark managers claim that Clark
on the second ballot would have
1861 a gain of forty-six votes over
the first ballot They said he would
get twenty-six from Pennsylvania,
six from North Carolina, six from
Virginia, six from Tennessee and
two from Utah, and would have
enough more on the third to take
the nomination. They also look for
New York's ninety.
Wilson men claim the New Jersey
governor would win on the fourth
or fifth ballot, counting on the deser-
ton of numerous Clark supporters
when New York swung to the
speaker. Harmon and Underwood
managers expected their candidates
to gain strength as the balloting
progressed. National Politicalman
CARRIER, OF Ohio, showed q list to-
day of eighty-nine Clark delegates
who will swing to other candidates
If the Murphy-1aggart- votes
are cast for the speaker.

GOVERNMENT
WINS CASE

Word was received here this morn
ing that the appeal of the government
in the case of the U. S. against the
Seymour Packing Company, in the
seizure of 443 cases of frozen egg pro-
duct had been decided in favor of the
government by the United States Cir
cult Court of Appeals.
When the eggs We're seized District
Court Judge Cross decided against the
government. An appeal was taken.
The case has attracted nation wide in
terest. Walter II. Bacon, of this city,
Assistant District Attorney, had the
case for the government and was pit
ted against the ablest lawyers for the
company. The case covered much ex-
pert testimony. The decision is a
great compliment to the skill of Mr.
Bacon, and marks him as one of the
most efficient lawyers in the service
of the Department of Justice.

ment the Board of Chosen Freeholders
secured the half interest of the heirs
of Stratton by quiet title, and attempt
ed to secure the title held by the
heirs of Buck. This, it seems was
not secured. This leaves the position
of the Buck heirs as entitled TO a
half interest in the original plot of BOX
40 feet, or about one fifth of all the
ground upon which the building
stands. OF course the heirs of Buck
never had any interest actually in the
buildings, but the county cannot very
well clear its structure from the small
piece in which the Buck heirs have a
half interest.
Since the announcement of the
Court in Chancery concerning the
matter, the heirs of the Buck estate
have authorized Hampton & Fithian
to offer to the Board of Freeholders
all the interests they claim in the
property for $500. When it is con-
sidered that the entire property is not
likely to be worth more than $12 900
or $4,000 in the market, together with
the buildings thereon erected by the
tax payers, and that the Buck heirs
have about one fifth interest in the
land only, the demand of more than
| one-half of the value of the entire
property seems little exorbitant. The
committee of the Board of Freeholders
which has the matter of settling this
problem is inclined to think that the
Buck heirs should be we'll satisfied
with one-third of the proceeds of a
| public sale of the estate, and will
probably make that suggestion to the
counsel of the defendants in the ad-
| judication suit. If this agreement can
not be reached, the matter will prob
ably rest quietly unless one or the

chancery court.
The Buck heirs have already served
notice upon Hurff e Haines that they
want one half of the rent they paid
for the use of the building while they
had possession of it with their bust
ness. When the fire destroyed the

lowed Hurff & Haines to enter in the
place and take shelter, and no charge
for rent was made. This was explained
to the Buck heirs and they replied thai
they expected rent for one half of the
property no matter what the county
