MORE DELAY IN
HALLAHAN CASE
Shown That All Relatives
Were Not Notified.

Another delay in the Hallahan
will case was made yesterday in the
Court of Chancery when the chan
cellor reserved decision and granted
an extension of time for thep roba-
ton of the will. This was done SO as
to secure testimony OF John Fox who
has not been in this city for the past
several years. Lawyers James Wight
and George s. Silzer, appearing for
Charlotte M. Hallahan, argued that
notices had been served on all con-
cerned in the case. Thomas Brown,
attorney for William Hallahan,
showed that none had been served
on John Fox.
AS yet It is not known whether
the case will be heard In the Orphans
Court or Court of Chancery. The
case is made more complicated by
the fact that John Hallahan has re-
tanned Lawyer James s. Wight to
secure privilege to sell land on Mar
ket street, which John Hallahan
claims the will does not cover.
Thomas Brown will be assisted in
the case by Freeman Woodbridge.

MAN ACCUSED
OF DESERTI0N

On a charge Of deserting his wife
and three small children in Cam
bridge. Mass, thereby making his
offspring public charge and plac-
Ing his wife in destitute circum-
stances. Anthony Mazacha, alias
Tony Smith, was taken into custody
and locked up in this city last night.
Recorder Kehoe this morning COM
mitted him to the county Jail for ten
days to await word from the Cam
bridge authorities.
The arrest was made following
receipt by Chief of Police Burke of q
duly certified warrant and communi-
cation from Chief of Police F. B.
Pullen, of Cambridge. The names
and addresses given were badly dis
torted, but through the efforts of
their chiefs, Detective Sergeants
HUFF and Long managed to find MAJ
acha and locked him up at $50
o'clock last night.
The de. ,ctives learned that the
man had deserted his family several
months ago, leaving the members in
destitute circumstances The of1ic-
ers were told that the three small
children had to be placed in an
almshouse and the Cambridge au-
thorities stated that Mrs. Mazacha
was likely to become public
charge. The police found the alleg-
ed fugitive living in comfortable
circumstances in three nicely fur
nished rooms at 624 Penn street.

EXCISE BOARD
MATTER IS UP
Democratic Leaders Still
Favor the Idea.

Democratic leaders in this city are
still advocating the non-partisan ex-
else board idea, although the Repub-
licans, thus far have shown no In
clination to take it up. 1t Is said
the Republicans oppose the Idea
because they believe they have a
splendid opportunity to elect ma
iority Of the board this November.
If a non-partisan board is decided
upon by the Democratic and Re-
publican leaders, the method en-
ployed will be to select five candi-
dates who are of excellent reputa-
ton, but who have taken no part In
politics and who are looked upon
as non-partisan. These candidates
would undoubtedly be opposed by
partisan candidates of both parties,
as was the school board several years
ago, but the politicians do not tc!tcvo
that any outside" candidate could
successfully cope with the power Of
the combined political forces.
One of the factors In the probable
campaign for a non-partisan excise
board this fall will be the attitude
taken by at least three of the five
present members constituting the
present board. President John H.
Fritzinger and Commissioner James
F. Burns have practically announced
their candidacy for reelection on the
Democratic ticket while Commits
sioner Richard Henderson has also a
strong desire in that direction 1t Ia
reported. Commissioner Edward
Tymrakiewicz has not committed
himself 1t Is understood. William R.,
Cornelison the other member of the
board, will not stand for reelection
with his fellow members. 1t is re-
ported, as he has had differences
with them of over two years stand
ing. He may be named as a nom
partisan candidate.
There appears to be scores who
desire election to this board. Friends
of Hugh C. Gallagher, foreman
of the Raritan Dry Dock Company,
are booming him for the Democratic
nomination. He lives In the third
ward. Max Gibian and Nathan Roth
are other Democrats who desire
nomination, 1t Is understood. Ed
ward J. Peterson has announced
himself as a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination, which brings
the present field of candidates up to
about ten, without any reference to
the men who may be placed in the
running by the Republican and Dem
ocratic organizations.

They have two living. who are boys
fifteen ad twenty-one years old.
Griswold brought action through
Thomas Brown and the several
phases OF the matter are being
fought out in the court OF chancery
Of this state.
Married 23 years Ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Griswold were mar
ried about twenty-three years ago
in Denver, Col. Mrs. Griswold was
college bred woman and her hus-
| band swas getting s12 a week, accord
| ing to the complaint. She aided her
husband and helped him secure
enough money to go TO college. Dur
I ing his college term two children
were born. The man graduated rs
metallurgist and instantly began
position paying $3.50 a month to
one paying $4,000 a year.
Mrs. Grlswold charges he deserted
her In Denver after they had been
married more than twenty years
He came east and secured a good po-
sition with the American Smelling
and Refining Company According
to evidence said to be in the posses
sion of his wife and her counsel, he
has been living life OF luxury and
has been decidedly untrue to his
family and even disowned his chill
dren.
The woman, through Thomas
Brown, filed a bill in chancery for
maintenance and an application for
alimony and support and law ex-
penses pending the outcome of the
suit.

Two runaway horses caused con-
siderable damage on the ferry hill

longing to the Elizabeth Hardware
Company rammed fire box 72 at
Front and Smith street, and another
belonging to Harry Sacrowitz, of 1876

the act of stopping the Elizabeth
Hardware Company's horse.
Caused Excitement.
The run Of the Elizabeth hard
ware horse from the stable in Di-
vision street through New Bruns-
wick avenue and Smith street and
down the ferry hill caused much ex-
citem mt. The animal narrowly
missed hitting several pedestrians
and vehicles at 1t wended its way
down Smith street. The horse took
fright while being unhitched. With
the wagon only partly attached, and
straps of the harness dangling be-
hind. the animal set a fast pace.
People about the lower end Of
Smith street anticipated the horse
would crash through the ferry gates
and go overheard. Instead, it turned
to the left and hit an electric light
wire post. Fire box 72 was knocked
partly from It's position. AS the
animal crashed into the pole it slid
out of the harness and down the
sidewalk for distance of about ten
feet and stopped against the ferry
house fence. 1t was badly bruised
and cut and the front of the wagon
was slightly damaged. There was
no one in the wagon at the time.
AS the rig was at the top of the
hill, Frank Burns, of Catalpa ave-
nue., while riding bicycle made a
futile attempt to stop the fleeing
animal. In the attempt his wheel
knocked down a ten year old child
causing slight bruises to the cyclist
hand child.
Lost Control of Rig.
While Harry Sacrowitz with two
\rompanions was driving down the
erry hill about o'clock yesterday
fternoon, he ran into the ferry
puse gates, breaking partially
laugh them. He settled for the
damage and was allowed to 20, but
the Incident was brought to the at

BECKER UNDER
CLOSE WATCH
Prisoner RidicuIes the Sug-
uesti0n of Suicide.

New York, July 31.-Police Lieu
tenant Charles Becker, indicted for
the murder Of the gambler Herman
Rosentha1, was under constant es-
pionage In his cell today. Warden
Hanley of the Tombs, who is re-
sponsible for the accused policeman,
posted a guard where he could OBJ
serve every movement Of Becker. In
addition all who visited him, his
lawyers, and even his wife, were
searched before they were allowed
to approach the central figure In
New York's worst scandal.
Hanley said that while, personally
he did not take any stock in the ru-
mors that Becker might commit sui
eide, he did not intend taking any
chances. Becker laughed at the
precaution and began protesting his
innocence and declared that he
would be able to prove that the case
against him was a gamblers frame
up, when his trial was reached.
District Attorney Whitman prac-
tically admitted today that he real
ICES that he will have a hard time
convicting Becker on the evidence
now at hand. The testimony of
Rose, Vallon and Weber Ia admit

roborated from an Independent
source. When Whitman was asked
about the statement originating in
his office that he will grant immun-
ity to Becker II he will "squeaP' on
his associates In the department, he
showed that he had doubts of the
strength of his case.
1T 1t can be proven that Becker
instigated the murder of Rosenthal,"
said Whitman, II will allow him to
turn states evidence Just to turn up
police graft. That police official
could instigate the murder of a cit
lien Is too great crime not to have
full punishment meted out. But you
must remember that we presume
Becker innocent until he is proven
guilty"
