Edelhoff home in Sanford street with
the girl she believed was a disgrace
and should not be permitted by the po-
lice authorities. The widow has re-
ceived considerable sympathy In the
trouble.
Chief O'Neili said after tho interview

a few days. and Ella had made a plea
for his release.

home since he came back to East Or

OF the affair. his mother went to the
East Orange police to learn what had
become OF him. When acquainted with
the fact that he had been released In
Newark and that 1t was thought he
might have gone to the Edelhoff home,
she declared 1t was not proper.
Fitzpatrick called at police headquar-
ters in East Orange today. He was
given a severe lecture by Chief O'Nein
who called attention to tie fact that
the boys father vas scalded to death
seventeen years ago today. Ee warned
the boy that the path he was travelling

Answering the demand Of the Prison

ton and representatives OF civic bodies.
who objected to the removals Of War
den Charles A. Steadman from the
County Hospital for the Insane and
Warden Samuel C. Martin from the
Caldwell Penitentiary, the Board Of
Freehoiders yesterday submitted In de-
Tense Of its action charges of incom-
potency and intoxication against Mar
tin and charges Of extravaganza and
incapacity against Steadrnan.
The charity society invited the sup
port Of the civic associations In de-
%nouncing tho action Of the board In
Diminishing the two mon. characterizing
II as a purely political move and de-
Tending the administrations Of the men
as efficient and economical.
In bringing the charges against the
men the board announced that the
facts brought out in the charges were
kept secret on account Of the families
Of the men concerned. "In view Of the
fact, however," said Director Walter
A. Evans, "that charges Of political
favor have been made we ind It neces-
sary to defend our action which was
with the unanimous approval Of the
board. by these public harges."
Continuing. Freebooter Evans said:
mr.. Martin has beer negligent in
his administration; he has appeared On
the streets of the city of Newark, and
at the institution, frequently in an in
toxicated condition. By reason of the
fact that Mr.. Martin frequently arrived
at the institution late at night or early
in the morning. and was in no condi-
ton on the following morning to attend
to his duties, the entire work of the
penitentiary was hindered and delayed
and interfered with. BY reason of Mr..
Martins personal habits, frequent dis
agreements and disputes occurred be-
tween the warden and the deputies and
the steward, all of which was democrat
izing in its effect upon the discipline OF
the institution"
the charge of extravaganza against
Warden Steadman was based up
on the report Of the hospital
committee, dated April 80, 1911,
which showed according to the state
ment Of Freebooter Gilbert. hat the
expenses Of running the hospital for
the year ending April 80. 1910. were
1858, 246.57, while the total running ex-
pense of the institution for the fol-

YOUNG MAN FOUND
DEAD IN HIS ROOM
FRANK CAvALETTO DIED SUD.
DENLY LAST NIGHT At
BOARDING HOUSE

Frank Calvetto, aged 10 years, was
found dead in his room at the Court
!ney boarding house, 1874 Railroad
street, this morning. The cause of the
death has not been determined as yet,
but 1t is thought to have been epilepsy,
a disease to which the young man was
subject. A certificate was found on his
person issued by the miners examin-
ing board of Putnam county, H.,
which stated that he had two years
experience as a miner in Putnam
county. According to the testimony
OF people in the boarding house, Cal
veto had two attacks of epilepsy last
night, one in the boarding house and
one down near the river. 1t is thought
that he succumbed to an attack in his
