DEADLY ANTHRAX
CLAIMS 9 COWS
Health Board investigating
Outbreak in Diaries Furnish
ing Milk Here.

Several cases of anthrax, one of the
most deadly diseases with which
cattle are affected. have been discov-
cred in the town of Union, Union
county, and are being investigated
by the Newark Board of Health.
Since last August nine cows in two
dairies supplying this city with milk
almost exclusively have died. That
the terrible scourge of cattle was re-
sponsible for the deaths. however,
was not discovered until last Satur-
day. when the last COW died. Other
COWS have been stricken, however,
and there is a chance that the dis
ease may spread through all the
cattle in the town.
Anthrax is one Of the most con-
tagious diseases known and spreads
rapidly. SO virulent is 1t tnat often
times cattle which have merely
grazed on pastures which were used
by affected cows have contracted the
disease Man is also liaple to this
disease, which is usually fatal
Health Officer David B. Chandler,
who is conducting the investigation.
says that the milk supply is not af-
fected by this disease. for one of the
first symptoms in cows that have
been seized Is their inability to give
milk.

an alleged primary night fracas at l67
Commerce street.
That complaints against Mr.. Nj
gent, Alderman Alexander Archibald
and Policeman Harry Crawford. Of
the First precinct, will all be dis
missed, is practically certain.
The jury is said to have been unan-
imous in reaching this decision after
examining witnesses yesterday after
noon. 1t is the second grand jury
to discredit the charges.
When the September grand jury ig-
nored the instructions of Judge
Harry V. Osborne. who directed the
inouist to return indictments against
those named in the complaints, Judge
William p Martin directed the pres
ent jury TO find a true bill.
The jury. however, is apparently as
fully convinced of the innocence of
the defendants as was the first.
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott at the
second inquiry presented his evidence
in person. The first examination had
been conducted by First Assistant
Prosecutor Frederick R. Lehlbach.

LONDON, Nov. 1s.-The nations of

Gliding factors in the decision of the

CRANES STENOGRAPHER
GOES BEFORE GRAND JURY
Local Man Warned Several
Times in Past Five
Years.

Lieutenant Frank Tuite, of the de-
tectiye bureau, Is testifying at Buff
falo today before the federal grand
jury, which is investigating the al
legged gigantic frauds in which A..
Brice Crane, arrested at his offices
in the Globe building yesterday, is
said to be implicated.
Tuite, who was one Of the party
which conducted the raid on Cranes
office, left for Buffalo last night. He
took with him four mail sacks full Of
the correspondence, papers and books
of Hunter & Crane, of which Crane is
the surviving member. Tuite knows
little,tof course. of the sort of busi-
ness Crane is alleged to have con-
Quoted. His part will be to tell of
what was found in the Office by the
raiders
Miss Alice Shaw, of 216 Oliver
street. Cranes stenographer, will also
be called by the grand jury today.
She accepted service of subpoena
from one of the postoffice inspectors
at the time of the raid and left for
Buffalo on night train.
According to the federal authorities
Cranes arrest was the result of his
own negligence. Since two years ago,
they say, Crane has been warned re-
peatedly to give up his business, but
has ignored these warnings entirely.
He knew, the postal inspectors say,
that arrest was iminent, but sti!i
kept his office open and transacted
his business as usual.
Crane himself, who was released
in $1,000 bail furnished by Mrs. Isaac
T. Hunter, widow of his late partner
and his mother-in-law, is very con-
fdent of beating the case.
"They tried to get something on
me two years ago., he said, but l
beat them then. There's nothing in
this case. l was simply acting for
an English firnn.'
Cranes case viii come to trial be-
fore the Federal Court at Buffalo on
December 2. According to the au-
thorities he has been in the busi-
ness which resulted in yesterday S
raid for about five years.
Crane was one of six men arrested
In eight raids conducted simulta-
neOuSlya IN as many cities. Inc gov
ernment officials say thatsthe swindle
perpetrated by those with whom the
local man is said to have worked was
one of the most gigantic ever at
tempted in this country. At least

is what it cost promoters in this
country to do business with Crane
and his alleged associates.

. Justice Goff charged the Jury in the
case of the four gunmen charged with
numbering Herman Rosentha1 for
more than three hours. If the States
informers committed the crime. as
the defense contends, he asked. was
it reasonable to assume that the In
formers would invite the ssunmen -
witnesses?
IF Jack Rose had led. he said.
in swearing that the gunmen did
the shooting. why then dio he not 90
further and swear that he mad actual

the defendants. These are circunl-
stances for you TO CONSIDER eau

Justice Goff. in opening his address.
Calls Murder Reckless.
Herman RosenthaI was shot to
death under circumstances of excep-
tional recklessness. Rose. Webber.
Vallon and Schepps say to these four
defendants: You did the murder.
These four defendants say. We ad-
nit the murder. but you committed
it. 1t is a remarkable situation, these
two groups of men accusing the other.
Rose has taken the witness stand
and acknowledged participation ia the
crime. II was a remarkable narrative
that he told. Can you say that thst
man constructed and conceived this
plot without there being foundation
of truth in it? From the defendants
mouths themselves we learn that Rose
feared them. The defense accuses
Rose of constructing the story to save
his own life.
1T is for you to say in hearing Rose
incriminate himself in telling this
narrative whether there was not truth
to support his story. whether il Was
pure imagination.
Bear in mind that Rose did not
testify that he saw the defendants
shoot Rosenthal. Would he have
stopped short just before the cul-
mination of the plot and fail TO say
that he saw them commit the murder,
IL he was not telling the truth2"
The court pointed out that, although
the defendants had testified that they
were not more than forty or fifty feet
away from the scene Of the murder
and saw the shooting. they claimed
they did not see Rosenthal fall. The
truth of these statements the jurors
must determine for themselves.
1t was of imperative Importance for
the jury, the court said. to consider
that all the defendants had testified
to taking particular notice of the
gray automobile in front OF Webber's :
poker rooms. why, in street where
many automobiles were accustomed to
pass, should all the defendants take
notice of this particular maehine2r he
asked. That is for you to deter
mine"
The jurors should also weigh
whether it were possible for Whitley,
Lewis to see the whole scene OF the
murder by the fash OF the pistol. 1T
is also proper for you TO consider, .
he said, whether the similar lam
guage used by the defendants IN de-
scribing conversations was a matter
Of arrangement between them"
