ditions.

learned yesterday at the Office OF the
Hudson County Board of Freeholders
that a report was made to that body
by the April term grand jury CEN
surfing Warden Fitzpatrick for the
OF things at the insane asy-
lum at Snake Hill and commencing
Warden Mckee for the manner in
which he maintains the aimshouse.
The report was made by a commit
tee of the grand jurors and sent to
the ~fneeholders some time ago For
some unexplained reason it was kept
under cover until yesterday. 1t is said
that it got mixed with some papers IN
the office of the clerk of the board.
The report says that dust covered
everything in the DON where samples
and supplies are kept In the insane
asylum. 1t also saiA the room was
alive with moths and that a smoked
ham, widowed and partly rotten. was
hanging there. A cap, all moth eaten.

inspection.
TT was in an exceedingly deplor-
able condition." the report says of
the asylum room.
In conclusion the report says:
your committee desires to say that
Warden Mckee is deserving of com
mendation for the manne In which
he Is keeping the almshouse, while
Warden Fitzpatrick should be censur-
ed for the in which he is
keeping his supplies"

PROcToR'S WILL o
WITH AMAZING PROGRAM

Proctor's Park Place Theatre will
again resume its ministrations to b
amusement-loving public with NATL
nee and evening performances Mon
day, when one of the most attractive
bills ever presented in the local home
of vaudeville will be placed on view.
The bill represents an all-star aggre-
cation of entertainers.
While it would be difficult to pick
a headliner arbitrarily. this distinc-
ton will probably be accorded to
'.yolant" and the Flying Piano" q
of the most mystifying acts on the
vaudeville circuit. 1t prevents the
weird and almost uncanny spectacle
of a musician revolving through the
air. seated at a baby grand piano, and
executing the most difficult passages
with absolute technical mastery.
The bill will also serve to present
such talented vaudeville artists as
Miss Fanny Brice. who was only re-
Gently featured in the Ziegfeld Fol
Hes" in which she scored such a pro-
nounced success by reason OF her In
imitable singing of coon songs n
popular ballads. Miss Brice is a New
ark girl. and should receive a warm
welcome from her old riends and ad-
mirers In this city. Another promi-
nent member Of this clever company
Of entertainers will be 8. Miller Kent,
who will have the support of a eapa-
bic company in presenting The Real
O., without exception n cleverest
detective playlet ever written

BAR MARCH WITH
TRADES COUNCIL
Union Puts Ban on Drum Corps
on Account of Uni
forms.

Neither the Building Trades Coun-
ell nor the various drum and hfe
corps of the city will take part in the
coming Labor Day parade under the
auspices OF the Essex Trades Council.
while the decision of the former.
which was not unexpected. as that
body is not afnliated with the central
labor body, was notsa surprise 60 the
officers and members of the council
the action of the latter Is the result
of a motion prohibiting the drum and
fife corps to parade in their present
uniforms, which do not in every sense
of the word comply with the decision
of the parade committee requiring
every person in the parade to wear
strictly a union-made uniform.
Matter is Threshed Ont.
Members of the Marshall Musicians
were present at the meeting Of the
Trades Council last night and the
matter was threshed thoroughly.
The delegates Of the Marshall Mu-
s~icians, which is made up solely of
about eleven drum and fife corps,
consisting of about two hundred
members, commended that their uni
forms were made prior to their Join
ing the Trades Council about four
| years ago and felt that the order
would mean an unnecessary expense
to them.
Other delegates thought different
about the matter and as soon as the
motion to permit the drum corps to
take part in the parade this time,
with the understanding that here
after all uniforms worn by the men
must carry the lagel, was made sew
eral were on their feet. These con-
tended that the rule should be strictly
| enforced.
Say Decision Is Unjust.
When the motion was put to a vote
it was lost by Ia to 33. j. Haselmann
and Gus Mehpert, delegates from the
drum corps, then announced that the
decision was a most unjust one and
that the Marshall musicians would
not take part In the parade. These
two delegates said that the various
organizations which they represent
have splendid uniforms and they did
not feel that they should be prohib-
tied from wearing these in the pa
rade.
The decision of Marshall Musicians,
| of Branch No. 1, of Local No. 16, will
not affect the Musicians Mutual Pro-
tective Union, Local 16, which is made
| up of the various bands of the city,
and these organizations s-ill all be
represented. They will all parade in
| upion-made uniforms.

SENATE'S ACTION
AROUSES BRITAIN
Newspapers indignant Over
Preference to American Ships
in Panama Canal Question.

LONDON, August 10.-British ship
owners are indignant at the United
States Senate's action on the Pam
anna question. They admit that a big
trade is waiting to be done as soon
as the canal is open. but are incliaed
to think hat the great preferential
treatment accorded to American ships
will lead traders to adhere to the
our routes.
Representatives Of prominent firms
have expressed the opinion, however,
that much might happen before the
canal is opened AMI that the protests
of foreign powers might induce a
change In the American policy. The
amendment permitting the registra-
ton of foreign-built vessels as Amer
lean, it is thought. may likely give
impetus to British shipbuilding.
The editorial comments continue to
| display strong feeling. The Specta-
tor says: The Senate decision is a
! violation of the clear sense Of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty and an esam-
pie of the sort of policy he United
States should studiously avoid If the
Monroe Doctrine is permanently to
commend ltStii " pSdct-tONHhS ma
lions. If the Senate persists N its
present course, Great Britain must
direct its strongest efforts to getting
the tolls questions referred to arbitra-
ton at The Hague
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-The Sen
ate yesterday voted to retain the
House provision dealing with the
railroad-owned steamships in the
| Panama Canal bill. This provision
makes it unlawful for "a railroad
| company to have any interest what
| ever in any steamship line, with
which the railroad may compete.
Before this section was adopted an
amendment limiting the prohibition
to vessels passing through the Pan
anna Canal. as proposed by Senator
Smith, of Georgia, was agreed to.
Another amendment to that section
proposed by Senator Reed, of Mis-
souri,, prohibiting the passage
through the canal of any ship en-
gagged in the coastwise trade. owned
or controlled by a person OF company
doing business in violation of the
Sherman antitrust law, was adopted
by a vote of IS to 2S. ?
