Plan Shelving
of J. ]. Gardner
[special 70 the Newark slar. |


ATLANTIC CITY, April 13.-Form y
Governor Stokes, Senator Lewis and
Drobably Senator Isaac Nichols are in
Atlantic for a conference with several
hotel men and anti7organizat ii n
politicians, with a view to getting Il
candidate for Congress to oppose Can
gressman John j. Gardner.
Nichols has already announced Il at
he would be a candidate for the norci-
nation against Gardner, and it nas been
generally supposed that Lewis would
get in the race, too. 1t was promised
by Senator Edge and Mayor Harry,
Bacharach that they would lend Lewis
all their support in return for the
favor Lewis bestowed upon Edge when
he voted for him for leader of the
Senate over Senator Leavitt, of Mercer.
Since that time, however, things are
developing in Burlington county that
will probably make it imperative that
Lewis shall not get into the congress
sional fight at all, but stick at home
and be returned to the Senate.
1t is believed Bacharach, and per-
haps Edge, and all the anti-organiza
tion people, will be invited to meet
Stokes tonight and it is presumed
that as result of the conference some
decision will be made as to who shall
be made the opponent of Gardner.
In the meantime, Gardner and his
friends are saying not word. They
seem to feel that he has less real op-
position this year than for the last
six or eight years

was convicted of three violations of the
automobile law in 1909.

THINK GENTRY
STOLE AUTOS

Suspecting that DIR. Allan F. Gentry.
who is in the county Jail in default of
$4,000 bail, may have made business
of selling stolen automobiles, dis
guised by clever brushwork and false
identification plates and driven across
New Jersey by night secretly TO Nor
ristown, lieutenants from headquarters
are investigating the physicians many
auto sales.
1t is rumored at police headquarters,
despite the lack of official confirmation,
that it may be proven Dr. Gentry
played lone-handed a remarkable game
of automobile brigandage.
At least six machines, sold by the
doctor, are said to have been traced
by Lieutenant Keough. Descriptions
of all the machines reported stolen
from Philadelphia, where there has
already been issued a warrant for Dr.
Gentry. have been asked for by the
police of this city.
DR.. Gentry and companion, who
was identified as Mrs. Mary Hoffman,
an employee of a Morristown hotel,
were riding up Clinton avenue shortly
before midnight q week ago last We'd
nesday. The physicians machine ran
into a tree and the woman was seri-
ously injured. Later it was alleged
that the machine was stolen from Phil
adelphia, and warrant was sworn out
for DR.. Gentry's arrest
The Investigations of the police are
said to show that DR.. Gentry for the
past two years has been selling good
automobiles at low figures. 1t is al
legged that ne could always satisfy his
customers with low figure, although
he often failed to produce the make
and kind of machine they had intended
to buy.
The charges against the doctor and
the accident he was in recalled mys-
terious incident which took place in
Nutley in December.
An automobile, running at high speed
south in Passaic avenue, jumped from
the road, crashed clean through huge

like paper, and half buried itself in an
Then the gasoline tank
exploded and the car caught fire. In

came ablaze. the car was demolished.
It is now thought that this machine
had been stolen from another State.

DRAG LAKES

NEW YORK, April 1s-After a

mented Annie Boyarsky, of 997 Wynona
avenue, East New York, and 10
months-o1d Ruth Fleischmann, of 14S7
Madison avenue, whom the girl kid
naped Thursday morning from a baby
carriage in front of Mount Sinai Hos
pital, the police today began dragging
the Central Park lakes and reservoir:
Warmed to sympathy by the distress
of the baby's parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Abraham Fleischmann, scores of vol
unteer searchers helped the dozen de-
tectives all day yesterday far into the
night. Not a covert in Central Park
but was hunted through, and not a bit
of woodland or park in the city but
was searched for the unbalanced alb
ductor and the lost child. Inquiries
were made also at all the hospitals and
institutions, but without results.

INCREASED INTEREST IN MINING.

1t is extremely gratifying to note
the greatly increased activity which
dominates the mining industry of
the west, and to observe the almost
feverish demand in almost every
walk of life for gijt-edged mining
properties. The condition, as to min
ing, has much improved during the
past two or three years, and invest
ors and capitalists who, not so very
long ago, looked upon mining as a
a shark, are now glad to become in
terested in the former and to be-
come intimately associated with the
latter. Thus it is that opinions will
change, and that things 20 the in
vestor which were black a few years
ago are now white, for experience
has shown that mining, as a whole,
Is legitimate; that fortunes are
more easily made in mining enter
prises than in any other commercial,
manufacturing. agricultural or bus
mess occupation. Bitter prejudices
against mining have been buried in
oblivium, and because of the fact
that their holders could not stand
out against the overwhelming evil
dence that mining was both profitable
AMI legitimate. They could no long
er arraign the mining industry as a
fake, a gamble, when, on every hand,
they heard of millions made from
thousands invested, or incomes pour
ing steadily into the lap of friends
which would have been fortunes for
kings and rulers in the olden times,
and as a consequence, have investi-
gated into mining in all Of its
branches to such an extent that they
are now glad to become identified
with this fascinating industry.
Indeed, to such an extent has min
ing become popular throughout the
the length and breath of this fair
land CT ours, that the miner and in
vestor are now brothers, the natural
sequence beirg that in almost every
mining camp in the west increased
activity is noticeable. New producers
are being yearly added to the list
Of cur dividend-payers; old bonanzas
are being resurrected; innumerable
hosting plants are being built, and
there is such a demand for mine and
mill equipment that machinery houses
are behind in their orders.
Such. then, is the healthy condition
Of the mining industry of today. and
this is but a starter to what it will
be year from now.-Salt Lake Min
ing Review.
