Man Who Attempted to
Collect His Board Bill

An effort to collect board bill of
$3.50 from Carmine Laffa on August
8, 1911, came very near costing Raj
feale PeZza his life, according to his
story and the mute evidence given
by a stab wound scar in his breast
just over the heart, in Quarter Ses-
sions Court before Judge Harry V.
Osborne today
Laffe, who worked as a shoemaker
at SAY Eighth avenue, had boarded
with Pezza for a considerable period,
according to the testimony given to-
day, and then left, owing Pezza the
sum of $3.50.
On the day in question Pezza went
to the shoeshop to try and collect the
debt when. he alleges. Laffa grabbed
large pair of shoemaker shears and
tabled him over the heart. He has
the stab wound to show, and Laffa
is a pretty lucky man, for had the
wound been half-inch lower he
would probably now be facing a muir
der charge instead of one of atrocious
assault and battery.
Laffa was arrested after the crime
BIT after being bailed to await the
action of the grand jury jumped his
bail bond of $3.50 furnished by Nocolo
MARITIME. of Nutley, and disappeared
The bail was declared forfeited, but
year later Laffa was found in New
York city by MARITIME and forced to
come back here and stand trial.

New Jersey, in the Senate this after
noon.
The senior New Jersey senator said
he had been getting a lot of letters
and kilograms urging him to vote for
the repeal of the per cent. clause in
the tariff bill, giving a per cent.
rebat on imports in American ships.
If it's a question of repeating the

would much rather repeal the treaty.
First we were told we could not re-
bate Panama canal tolls to our own
ships Now we are told we cannot
give a tariff rebate to our own ships
although England gives big subsidies
to her shipping.

DELAY QUESTIONS
Teacher Will Investigate Before
Acting Further Against
Retirement Fund.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 13.-Miss
Emma A. Mccoy, who is fighting the
management of the teachers retire
ment fund, will make further in
vestigation before presenting her list
of questions to the recently-appoint-
'sed committee of fund members.
She announced this today, in an
swer to a letter from Edward A.
Murphy assistant superintendent of
schools of Jersey City, who presided
at the retirement fund convention
last month, notifying Miss Mccoy of
the personnel of the committee and
asking that the questions be forward
ed to the chairman, Miss Julia A.
Mihihan, of Jersey City. q
Miss McCoy's letter follows:
las / look over the names of the
committee you have appointed-Miss
Julia A. Minihan, of Jersey City;
Charles L. Dalrymple, of Hacken-
sack. and Henry NJ Maxson, of Plain
field-I am wondering who are she
expert financiers on that committee
IT went to that retirement fund
convention September q with a few
questions to ask, but, after the
treatment I received, discovered the
advisability of further consideration.
The questions l have already formu-
lated are now under adviSement by
my lawyer. But, as l cannot rece ge
any answers before September, 1914,
1 may utilize part of the interval by
extending my inquiries and by max
ing a more thorough study of the
data | have on hand.
IT know there are hundreds of
teachers in New Jersey asking per-
tinent questions about our retirement
fund. and l would be glad to have
them send their questions to nett
would save those teachers from I'M
dergoing the unhappy ordeal which
l experienced at that convention.
James e. Bryan, one of the trus-
tees of the fund, declared at that
convention that Miss Allen is the re-
tirement fund, and ] believe there
was never truer word spoken; but
what right has any one individual to
have entire control of million dollar
public fund? Does Mr.. Bryan mean
to infer that he and his fellow trus-
tees are mere ciphers?
please be patient with me. 1 am
studying this subject very carefully,
and In due time my questions will be
formulated and sent to your com
mittee."
