RECEIPTS SHOW WOMAN
PAID TAXES % YEARS AGO
Former Accused Official Failed
to Enter Payments.

Tax receipts twenty-three years old
were brought before the South Or
ange village board of trustees last
night to prove that taxes on property
owned by Mrs. Bridget Herman had
been paid that long ago.
Some time ago Mrs. Herman, who
lives in Tichenor street, wanted to
secure a loan on some of her prop
erty. When the title was searched
however, 1t was found that the taxes
of 1889, $3.50 for one item and fifty
two cents for another, with interest
of more than ST, had not been paid,
according to the ~treasurer's books.
Certain that she had paid the taxes
she mads a search and located the
receipted bills.
Halliday. who was later accused oil
embezzling $4,000 of the village
funds, had received payment of Mrs
Kernan's taxes and given her re-
ceipts, but had failed TO enter the
payments on the town books.
The board of trustees directed thai
Mrs. Herman be credited with pay
ment of the amount in dispute.

VAN msTEENDERGH
LOSES POSITION
FreehoIder Board Revokes His
Commission as County
Road Inspector.

Although William r. Swami ad-
mitted that he had sought the &C.
q~uaintance Of Herman Van Steen-
bergh in order to get him to with
draw from the civil service eligible
list of license inspectors, in order tc
make room for George E. Roehm
there was no testimony to show al
the second hearing of the case before
the Civil Service Commission that a
money consideration had figured In
the deal.
Attorney Josiah Stryker. for the
commission, laid great stress on the
liability of a stranger to oblige a
politician like Swami to such an ex-
tent that he would go to Trenton and
pay his own way and withdraw his
name from the civil service list for
the sake of such a young friendship
alone.
1t was brought out at the hearing
yesterday afternoon that Swami. who
styled himself a politician and boxing
promoter. had made arrangements tt
meet Van Eteenbergh at the printing
Office of George P. Coles, a mutual

called up Van Steenbergh, who came
at once to his office and was intro
duced TO Swami. They left Coless
office. and Swami testified that he
persuaded Van Steenbergh to go to
Trenton and pull out Of the way of
Roehm.' II told him that he would
gain the friendship of the Democrats
IL he would do this favor" said
Swami.
Wasn't it pretty much to ask Of a
stranger" inquired Mr.. Stryker.
when l do a favor for a friend I
go the limit" said Swami.
It took considerable questioning on
the part Of Mr.. Stryker to get Mr..
Swami to admit that Roehm had told
him that Van Steenbergh had taken
the examination, but he finally did so.
Jacob L. Newman, counsel for
Roehin, did not cross-examine either

mission. He made objection to Mr..

to how he heard about matters per-

his sitting on the cas- against
Roehm.
The commission of Herman Van
Steenbergh as county road inspector
was revoked yesterday by the free
holders road board.

PENSIONS
TO Be PAID soon
From $3.50 ,ooo. 900 Appropria-
ton 500, 900 Goes to Vets
and Widows Here.

Within the next few days Uncle
Sam will distribute approximately
500. 900 in pensions to the veterans
and widows Of veterans living in
Newark.
Many of the pensioners in this
vicinity as well as others through
out the country, have not received
their checks for three months owing
to the fact that the old appropriation
was exhausted before Congress
passed the new appropriation Of
$3.50, 600. 900. This bill was signed by
President Taft Saturday. and i'm
mediately orders were sent to the
various distributing agencies to for
ward the checks.
All pensions for the last three
months were due on August 4, and
in many instances the delay proved
a great hardship. II is said that
some widows are destitute n suf-
| fering.
The various distributing agencies
have been besieged with letters of
complaint, and where 1t is possible
these cases r being attended to
first.
The delay of Congress in passing
other appropriation bills has also
proved embarrassing to government
employees.
In Newark the regular employees
in the office of the collector of Gus
toms, it is alleged, have not receiver
their July salaries. In the same Of
fees special employees have been
held up for their June salaries, the
salaries for July not being due until
the last of August.
1t is also said that the regular
army has not been paid for June,
although it has been paid for July.

BABIES READY
FOR BIC PARADE
Entries for Tomorrow's Great
Asbury Event Will Close
Tonight.
Especial to the Newark start


AsBURY PARK. Aug. 2o.-Bie
babies and little ones. rich and poor,
pink and brown, happy and other
wise, are ready for their annual ex-
hibition in the baby parade. which is
the scheduled event for tomorrow and
the premier event of the carnival sea-
son of this celebrated resort.
The parade is divided into ten
divisions, and there will be as great
a variety of costumes and wonderful
''make-ups" as there are babies, and
that means over six hundred.
The little tots, ranging all the way
from 4 months old up to s years old,
will be placed in the competition
parade for the numerous and valu-
able prizes that are offered in the
various divisions. Happy mothers
and proud fathers await anxiously
the beginning of the great infant (ry)
brigade that will march down Ocean
avenue, headed by Educards's con.
cert band.
A large corps of judges will ac-
company each division and render
decisions upon the merits of the
youthful contestants.
Asbury Park is crowded to over
flowing with people from all States
in the union and nearly all countries
in the globe. They are all present
to witness the annual feature that
has made the summer resore a
famous one. "The baby parade that
made Asbury Park famous could
well be adopted by the carnival kings
as a watchword. The hotels are
doing a capacity business and many
their friends Twink in the city to
help them accommodate their guests
by giving up whatever room they
may have in their homes. Arrange
ments are being made by those in
charge to accommodate the largest
crowd that has visited the resort in
its history. Thousands will arrive
during the day In automobiles and
by trains, and the restaurants and
hotels are preparing for a great day.
The carnival committee has been
holding spiritual communication with
Jupiter Pluvius and a few of the
other gods that have it in their power
to bring sunshine, happiness and sue
or clouds and rain and disap-
The committee is inclined
to believe that Jupiter played enough
pranks last year and that in order TO
stand in the good graces of the re-
sorters the god of rain will make
himeslf conspicuous by his absence
this rear from the infant festivities.
1t is announced that Governor Will
son and his family will come from
Sea Grit and occupy a box at the
boardwalk carnival, At the close of
the parade the Governor will be
introduced to her majesty, Queen
Titania, who is Miss Hazel Manners,
of Newark.
The customary public functions will
take place after the parade. which
will be graced by the presence of the
queen.
Next Saturday there will be a day.
light carnival on Deal lake, and in
the evening the royal party and
members of the carnival commission
will be entertained by Miss Alice
Watson, one of the maids of honor,
at the Hotel Columbia. On Monday
night the queen and her court will
attend a special concert given in her
honor at the Arcade.
