FOUND IN CRUSADE
East Orange Health officer Ac-
companies DR.. Robertson
in State Tour.

Rusty milk cans found yesterday
during an inspection in the upper Sec
ton of the State by DR.. Frederick
Robertson. of the State Board OF
Health, and Health officer Will
lam T. Bowman, Of East Or
ange, was declared by the Off
cials to be the cause OF impure milk
being sold in East orange, and early
next week raiding party will start
oHt from the city with axes to destroy
every rusty milk can located.
Recent trips to dairies by the
health authorities resulted in the
places being given a clean bin of
health and where reforms were asked
for the farmers complied, but still
trouble was found with the milk,
known to the officials as railroad
milk, being sold by farmers to whole
salers in the city sections.
In order to properly trace the
trouble the State board sent DR.. Rob-
inson out yesterday with Mr.. Bow
man to make a tour, and in their
travels about thirty rusty cans we're
found, which could have been
promptly destroyed by the officials,
but they did not have their trusty
axes along. These win be used in
next wees campaign.
It is expected that the Orange au-
thorities will also take a hand in
the work.

TAX-SEARCH FEE
CASE HEARD TODAY
The contending Attorneys in
Kearny Suit Ordered to
File Briefs.

The suit to compel Town Clerk
William B. Ross, of Kearny,. to re-
fund to the town treasury about
$2,500 collected as fees for making
tax searches, was heard today by
Supreme Court Justice Vail In the
Hudson County Court House at Jer-
sey City.
The plaintiff in the suit is Merton
C. Leonard, taxpayer. Mr.. Leonard
is connected with the Kearny Civic
Alliance, which organization was in
strumental in having the suit insti-
tuted. The amount named In the suit
is $4,000. although the total amount
of fees expected to be recovered is
e-quarter of that figure.
For a number of years the munich
pal clerk received nominal fee for
conducting the searches. The alliance
looked into the matter, and decided
the clerk was not entitled to the extra
moneys. The Kearny Town Council
was notified of the findings of the
alliance, and suit was begun
Since the civic body took hand in
the matter the Council has passed a
measure depriying the clerk of the
fees.
Clerk Ross was represented at the
hearing by former Judge Mark Sulli-
van, and James W. Gillespie argued
Mr.. Leonard's side of the case.
Mr.. Sullivan held that inasmuch as
it may not have been legal for the
clerk to accept the fees, the law does
not provide that the town may ac-
cept them either. The lawyers Will

STEEL PIER, ATLANTIC CITY, N.
]. July 10.-When the national pro-
hibition convention today was called
to order on the windswept steel pier,
there was every prospect of lively
contest for the presidential nomina-
ton, perhaps even deadlock.
Candidates for first place most
mentioned were Eugene w. Chaplin,
of Arizona, the candidate four years
ago; A. ]. Houston, OF Texas, descend
ant OF Gen. Sam Houston of the. Al
amo; Chas. Scanlon, of Pittsburgh,
and w. o. Stewart, of Chicago. Aaron
w. Watkins, of Ohio, was about the
only man mentioned for vice presi-
dent. He was the candidate for second
place four years ago.
Atlantic City Is not the worst place
in the world to hold convention in
July and that may account for the fact
that there were today more than two
thousand prohibitionists here, almost
all the delegates, and all their al
ternates and many OF their wives and
relatives Charles r. Jones, of New
York, national chairman, called the
convention to order and there was the
usual procedure OF electing temper.

WASHINGTON, July TO- Senator
William Lorimer, of Illinois, faced the
crisis of his senatorial career today
when he prepared to begin his own
personal plea of mot guilty. to the
charge of knowledge of corruption in
his election.
When the senate met at 10 o'clock
Lorimer expected to speak all OF to-
day, and possibly continue tomorrow.
He had no prepared speech, but his
desk was Uttered by mass OF notes,
jotted down during the past few days
as he sat in his seat, listening to
excoriations Of his opponents.
Just as Lorimer's defense day at the
previous senatorial trial Of his right
to seat was marked by crowded gall
leries. long before the session started
today all the choice seats were pre-
empted. For the first time in num-
ber of weeks. nearly all the senators
were on hand.
The anti-Lorimerites were confident
today that no oratorical plea by the
Illinois statesman could move the ma
iority which they claim Is aligned
against Lorimer to change their vote.
They claimed that Lorimer would be
stripped of his senatorial toga by a
margin OF at least ten votes.
There was another delay when the
senate convened and the chair asked
II any senators desired to debate the
Lorimer case further. Neither Lea
nor Kenyon, the two anti-Lorimer lead
ers, who had been expected to sum up
the case from their viewpoint, was
present. Lorimer himself did not
make move to speak. and for mo-
ment it appeared as If a vote on the
resolution would be taken.
