who drink up their wages are for
you.
THE other evening, after standing
an hour and a half on a street corner
waiting for you, / was so Disguised
with the vulgar, drunken crowd that
| almost declared that | would not
even vote for Governor Wilson be-
cause of the train he has t. march
with.
81 cannot vote for you because you
shut your eyes to the moral condi-
tons existing in Newark. You say
you do not, but l have yet to learn
of an instance where any complaint
was seriously Investigated. 1 notice
a letter that G. Rowland Monroe has
just written to you. You have joined
with the crowd that calls for tar
and feathers and cries liar and sug
gests that no one has a right to talk
here unless he was born in Newark.
ut isn't very encouraging to the
hundred thousand of us who have
lived here less than twenty years to
be told to shut up or, get out.
1T is hard to keep still when you
see drunken young men in dance halls
and drinking halls, Topped owe In the
arms of their female escorts, while a
third person pours another drink
down them. 1t rather hurts to know
that boys are gambling and a police
man reported to be gambling with
them, and not dare to tell it because
you would only be called names for
doing so.
Perhaps these years of lawbreaking
among the men has destroyed the
sense of honor among the children.
The boys break the windows of every
vacant building. and with the girls
steal all the fruit, vegetables and
lowers they can lay their hands on.
The House of Good Shepherd tore
down a good fence and put n up
nine feet high to keep the thieves out
of their garden. The boys trespass
continually on the Memorial Presby-
terrain Church property; they howl
around when he have services. they
climb on the roof and break cutters
and shingles. and the police cannot or
will not suppress it.

could wipe out public i%ndecency with
one word to the police, but you have

BOY ONLY SCRATCHED
AFTER 3-STORY FALL

A little thing like a three-story fall
is hardly noticed by ~10-year-old Leon
ard Poetes, Of 80 Davis avenue,
Kearny. a small cut on the lads
head is the only evidence today of
the effects of a three-story tumble.
In which the youngster figured yes
terday. The only thing that gives the
boy any concern Is the fact that he
is unable to join his companions at
play today.
With a half dozen other boys the
Poetes lad went to a house on Hoyt
street which is in course of construc-
ton. The lads made heir way to the
top floor. The Poetes boy, more lar
ing than the rest, climbed out on a
narrow beam. He became dizzy when
he looked to the cellar below. With
a Shrek he lost his grip and his body
went HURTING through the air.
His companions hastened to the
cellar expecting to find him dead,
He appeared the least u|nconcerned of
any. He directed the work of carry
ing him from the cellar and more
than once rebelled because his play
mates insisted on carrying him. A
physician was called, but he could
find only a slight scalp abrasion.

BATTLING WITH FLAMES,
HALF-STIFLED, ESCAPES
Boiling Tar, Blazing Up, Near
Iy Destroys House.

Stumbling about through sitting
smoke, Theodore Kosenski battled
frantically with flames that were
destroying his home at 107 Ferguson
street yesterday, finally reaching a
small window, from which he escaped
certain death.
Some tar which Kosenski was boil
ing on the kitchen stove ran over
onto the stove and in an instant the
entire mass was burning. The floor
was soon enveloped in flames. Ko-
senski was nearly overcome with the
binding fumes of the burning tar.
He tottered about the house for
several minutes until he reached the
window, cutting his hands badly as
he broke the pane and made his
escape.
BY the time the iremen had ar
rived the fire had gained much head
way. The entire first floor and cellar
were Quilted and the damage was es-
timated at 81, 500.

RETURNED MISSIONARIES
SPEAK BEFORE FEDERATION

At the meeting of the Interdenomi-
national Federation for Mission Study
this morning in the North Orange
Baptist Church, Orange, the speakers
were the Rev. DR.. ]. b. Rogers, mis-
sionary to the Philippines, and Mrs.
Smith Ordway, who recently returned
from Porto Rico. DIR. Rogers told of
the purpose OF mission work in the
islands, and said that the scripture
has been published in the principal
dialects spoken in the provinces. The
Spanish language prevails generally,
and was the only language the edu-
Gated Philinos used in the old days.
Now English is spoken.
There are four Presbyterian mis-
sions in the islands and five Methodist
stations. One Filipino in the Bible
Training School. speaks six lam
guages. At first Americans were not
welcome in the provinces, but the
prejudice is being overcome. In or
der to avoid covering the same ter-
ritory the religious work of the vari-
Gus denominations is divided into
districts. Medical work in the Philip
pines has proved a great advantage.
Mrs. Ordway told of the mission work
being accomplished in Porto Rico.

ACCUSES WILSON
OF INDIFFERENCE
Advocate for Canal Parkway
C~riticises Executive in
Open Letter.

Julian r. Tinkham, of Montclair, in
an open letter to Governor Woodrow
Wilson, criticlses the chief executive
for his alleged indifference in rela-
ton to the Morris canal parkway, a
subject which Tinkham, as president
of the Morris Canal Parkway Asso-
citation, often has sought the governor
to take up, but without results, he
says.

ham says to Governor Wilson. mas
been absolutely barren of results. /
don't mean in getting your approva.
of my plan-you never said whether
you approved it or not-but in getting
your attention"
Tinkham asserts that from Febru-
airy 8, 1911, to october /, 1912. he sent
six letters on the subject to'Governor
Wilson. Only one of these letters was
answered, three were acknowledged
and reported under consideration, and
two were ignored.
An interview was asked for, Tink-
ham says, but not granted. A two
minute walking interview" was the
only opportunity Tinkham had for
discussing the subject with the gov
ernor.
ST implored you to go over the canal
and see for yourself" continues Tink-
ham in his open letter. photographs
and letters were, as usual acknowl-
edged. but not answered. The sum-
mer months passed. l heard of you
as being everywhere all over the coun-
try-except on the canal. Finally, in
January, 1912, you brought forward
your canal-abandonment bill, with not
one word of preservation in 1t. Part
was to be sold, part left to fate"
The Morris Canal Parkway Associa-
ton of which Tinkham speaks Is an
organization of 1900 members, whose
belief is that the State should pre-
serve the Morris canal, practically
intact, as a public recreation park.
A meeting of the Morris canal in
vestigating committee, appointed by
the Legislature, is to be held on
Wednesday in this city. The commit
tee is trying to get definite informa-
ton on which to base its report to the
governor and the Legislature.

off the protective tariff would not
only mean to reduce wages, but, with
the inhuz of f~orelgn-made goods,
some American manufacturers would
be driven out of business and another
panic might ensue.'
The protective tariff, claimed the
speaker, was responsible for the glass
industry in South Jersey; shipbuild-
ing I'm Camden; the wonderful prog
ress made in the silk industry in Pat

in Newark. Mr.. Parker in conclusion

SUES CANDIDATE
FOR DEFAMATION
Harrison Real Estate Man and
Brother Made De-
PENDANTS.

Declaring his character was de-
famed and that he was assaulted,
August Effenberger, sr., of Harrison.
today took steps to cov damages
in the sum of 81, 900 from Edward F.
and John A. McKeon, both of Harri-
son. The first-named is Democratic
candidate for councilman in the
Fourth ward, Harrison, and a promi-
nent real estate operator In the town.
Mr.. Effenberger has retained Assem-
blyman George Brensinger. of Jersey
City, as counsel. He is suing the Nc
Keons for $500 each.
The announcement that suit had
been instituted caused a sensation in
Harrison today. The trouble which
led up to the action taken today had
it's inception last Wednesday. Ac-
cording to the stories told, Effenber-
ger is said to have requested McKeon
to place in one Of the windows of his
office a picture of a Democratic cam
didate.
Edward McKeon is said to have re-
minded Effenberger the latter was not
friendly to him in his recent fight
against William J. Fallon for the
Democratic nomination for council
man. There were several snappy pas
sages between the pair and blows
were finally struck. E~ffenberger
claims both McKeon and his brother
John punched him. He further de-
clares the candidate called him
names.
The complainant had been employed
for a long time by Cornelius j. Lynch,
a shoe dealer at 316 Harrison avenue.
Following the McKeon argument
Effenberger is said to have taken
offense at the attitude Lynch took
and as a result resigned. Nothing
more was thought of the incident UNI
til announcement vas made today of
the suit.
When asked this afternoon regard
ing the matter. Edward F. McKeon
branded the Efenberger charges as
absurd and ridiculous" He would
make no further comment.
John McKeon said there was abso-
lutely nothing in the E~ffenberger
charges.

Y. v. E. A. STRIKE
OFF,; WORK BEGINS
Eighty Union Masons, Hod-
Carriers and IronWorkers
Start Operations.

Eighty men, masons, hod-carriers
and ironworkers, started to work to-
day on the new Young Women's
Christian Association building, now
in process of erection in Washington
street. This means the end of the
strike that held up the building of
the structure more than five weeks.
All the men now employed on the
building are union men. and union
men will be employed exclusively I'M
til the editice is completed.
The strike started as a result of the
letting of a sub-contract to perform
the iron work and the employment Of
non-union workers by the sub-con-
tractors.
V. J. Hedden & Sons have the con-
tract for the erection of the building.
The sub-contract for installing the
ornamental ironwork was given to
lowering & Garrigues, and this firm
employed men who were not members
of a union. Immediately the masons
and other workmen in the Hedden
employ walked out. Several assaults
on non-union ironworkers endeavor-
ing to go to work on the building took
place during the strike.
The trouble was finally settled after
a series of conferences held by the
contractors and delegates of the
trades unions, and Nathaniel Bonnet,
secretary of the Building Trades
Council, gave the order to the men
affiliated with the building trades to
resume their work.
Agreement on some minor differ
ences which had not been settled at
previous conferences a reached at
a meeting at 272 Washington street
today.
