Athletics Start
Unusually Early

School athletics are to start early
this year, according to present plans,
as the annual grammar school cross
country run has been scheduled for
Friday, Feb. 81, and the course has
been chosen by the Lowell school,
it being their choice by virtue of their
victory last year. The athletes of
the Lowell school have chosen the
following route:
Starting at the Y. NJ. c. A. the
runners will go east on Rood to
Twelfth street, thence north on
Twelfth to Gunnison, down Gunni-
son to First, south on First to Rood,
and east on Rood to point of start
ing. The distance is about three
miles.
Already about two dozen young
runners, members of various schools
in the city, are training for the event
and Hawthorne school is particularly
anxious to win this year. The pen
nant won by Lowell last year will be
the trophy again this year. When
won three times the pennant belongs
to the school declared thrice winner.

MUST |TEM|zE
FUTURE BILLS

All vouchers for pay of a stenog-
rapher in Judge Sulliyan's court
must in the future be itemiZed and
verified, according to a resolution
passed yesterday afternoon by the
county commissioners.
The resolution was drawn up by
County Attorney Halderman. who
ruled that the previous resolution
was not in strict compliance with the
law, although the payment of the
money was fully justified Mr. Hal
derman makes it. impossible for
any money to be drawn from the
public funds and charged to a salary
account in the judges office, unless
the items are carried on the voucher
and the Judge himself verifies it.
The resolution allows the judge TO
pay not to exceed s5 per day nor in
sums to exceed in the aggregate
1900 a year for competent stenog-
rapher and reporter. All these pay
ments, however. must come out of
the fees of the office and not other
wise.
This action, so far as the county
commissioners are concerned, prob
ably closes the Morrson-S Sullivan in
cident. Mr. Halderman in a previ-
Gus opinion decided that Mr.. Prim-
rose was entitled to all the sums he
had received. He held that the land
office fees, acknowledgements, etc,
had been Illegally held by the judge
and district court clerk, but advised
against the commissioners, starting
suit on the ground that previous
action had already been commenced
by citizens as relators.

ROCKEFELLERS SEEK
NEW HAVEN CONTROL?
Brokers Affiliated with Standard Oil
Interests Buying in Rail-
road Stock.

New York, Dec. 12.-Ever since the
price of New York, New Haven, and
Hartford shares broke through par there
has been steady accumulation of the stock
by brokers who usually act for the
Standard Oil interests. Absorption of the
shares by these brokers has been persis-
tent during the smash m the stock this
week.
William Rockefeller already is a direc-
tor on the New Haven, and is in a posi-
ton to know wherein lies its weakness,
and the best way OF rehabilitating the
property.
Banking interests pointed out today
that New Haven shares were so widely
scattered in the New England district
that the Rockefellers and their associates
would not have to buy a majority OF the
stock to swing control
The Morgan interests never owned
stock control OF the company, but were
able to govern it through control by
proxy.
As the RockefeIlers have always made
a success out of properties they have
taken hold OF it is believed that it would
be an easy matter for the Rockefellers
to enter fight for proxies and carry OF
the honors.
