DEFIANT TEACHER
TAKES POSSESSION
OF SCHOOL AGAIN
Defies Police and Officials in
West Orange-Pupils
Dismissed.

Disregarding the action taken by
the West Orange Board of Education
last night in ordering her dismissal,
Miss Laura G.. Welsh, formerly a
teacher in the ST. Cloud School, who
was charged with insubordination by
superintendent Alton H. Sherman,
again took possession of the school
today. Asserting that she was in
charge of the school, Miss Welsh,
besides ignoring the action of the
School Board, defied two policemen
who were called and refused to
leave the building after Mayor Sam
ual "A. Muta and the State and
school authorities had been called
into consultation.
Upon reaching the school today
the defiant teacher at once
called up the police on the tele-
phone, and declaring she was
in possession of the building asked
for protection. Sergeant Frank Nc
Guirk assigned a policeman to in
vestigate matters and protect the
teacher If necessary. Shortly after
ward the sergeant in answer to a
call from superintendent Sherman
sent a second policeman to the
school.
sI have possession of the school. L
am the principal and I demand pro-
tection,' said the woman to the
police. who failed to take any action
further than conduct an investigation.
Mayor Muta was appealed to by
superintendent Sherman, and the
towns chief executive directed AL
bert e. Wrensch, secretary of the
board of Edudation 70 communicates
with state Superintendent Belts. The
latter advised that the town authori-
les confer with County Superintendent
Oliver Morelock.
Mr.. Morelock at once gave orders to
evict the woman from the building.
To avoid further trouble, however. the
local authorities, ON the advice oe
Mayor Muta, dismissed the school
children until tomorrow
Miss Welsh, who is in possession of
the key to the school, declares she
will remain In the school until dis
missal time, at 8 o'clocf
The Board of Education passed a
resolution last night cancelling the
engagement of Miss Welsh as a
teacher following the reading of a
from superintendent
Sherman, charging her with insubor-
dination and asking for her dismissal
The action of Miss Welsh yesterday
in taking possession of the school, as
she did today, and refusing to leave
when ordered to do so by Superin-
tendent Sherman, is believed to have
been largely responsible for the action
taken last night. AS required by the
tenure of office act the board fixed
Thursday, September IS, asc the date
for Miss Welsh's trial

JEROME MOTORS
TO N. Y. CAPITAL
Feelings of Thaw's Nemesis
Soothed by Courts Invec-
tive for Gambling Arrest.

COATICOOK, Que, Sept 9.-Wili-
lam Travers Jerome, acquitted last
night on charge of gambling, was
the chief topic of discussion today
among the 5000 residents of Coati-
cook though opinion was divided as
to the verdict.
The scathing remarks of Magis-
trate Mulvena, who apologized to
Jerome for the indignity offered him
and declared the charge had been
justified by neither law nor fact, had
a smoothing effect and even those
who had been most bitterly opposed
to Jerome in his efforts to get Harry
X. Thaw back to Matteawan were
inclined to admit that the court ac-
ton had cleared the air and straight
ened out a situation which might
have grown embarrassing
Accompanied by Deputy Attorney
General Franklin Kennedy, Jerome
was on his way to Albany, N. Y,
by motor today. He will return to
Montreal by rail on Sunday next
preparatory to Thaw's production
Monday before the Kings Bench on
a writ of habeas corpus. The argu-
ments on the writ may mark the be-
ginning of a legal battle of many
weeks, and even months duration.
Thaw IS biding his time patiently
in the immigration pen here appar-
emily contented in the thought that
his lawyers are doing all in their
power to block his return to the
ASYLUM. His stenographer sees him
every day, but Thaw seems to have
dropped his publicity campaign" :"
The need of spreading sentiment in
Vermont, for one thing. is not so inn
mediate as it was a few days ago.
and 1t is understood that Thaw's
LAWYERS told him he must desist.

BLAME THREE FOR
PENNSY SMASH-UP
Interstate Board Exonerates
Road-Recommends Auto
matte Stopping Device.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 9.-Failure of
three men on locomotive to observe
and heed a signal that stood against
the advance Of their train was the
cause, according to report issued to-
day by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission of a rear-end collision be-
tween two passenger trains on the
Pennsylvania railroad on July 30 at
Tyrone. Pa.
The accident resulted in the death
of one employee and the injury of l26
passengers. twenty employees. five
postal clerks and two Pullman enl-
plovees
The trains were being operated un-
der the automatic block system A
test of the signals after the accident
showed that they were In good work
ing condition.
The report says that it is impossible
to account for the failure of all three
men on the engine properly TO observe
the indication of the signal and there
can be no excuse for such failure.
"A consideration of accidents OF this
character which have occurred within
the past two years. says the report.
leads inevitably to the conclusion
that even the most complete and mod
ern system of fixed signals is not ade-
quate under all circumstances to in
sure the safe operation of trains.
This accident again calls attention to
the necessity for some form of auto
matte train-stopping device"
The cars of both trains were of the
all-steel type and the report says that
"the substantial construction of the
modern steel cars making up these
trains is without doubt the reason
that none OF the passengers was
killed "

Attacks James r.
Nugent.

Mayor Julian A. Gregory. of East
Orange. who seeks to defeat City
Counsel James r. Nugent for place
in the Democratic State Committee

NAB TWO ALLEGED
THIEVES IN CHASE
Detective Miller Rounds Up
Pair After Hunt Through
Meadow Lanes.

The capture OF two alleged copper
thieves after a chase in automobiles
over a narrow meadow road the po-
lice believe has cleared up robberies
amounting to several hundred dol
lars. The prisoners were held today
in $500 bail for the grand jury on
charges of grand larceny.
Detective John L. Miller. of the
Third precinct, who has been inves-
tigating for some time, learned yes
terday that a load of copper ingots
had been delivered at the plant OF
the Balbach Smelling and Refining
Company, on the Newark bay front,
and almost Immediately after the de-
livery truck had left 1t was found
that nine ingots. valued at $50, were
missing.
Miller hailed an automobile passing
the precinct station in Van Buren,
street and told the owner to put on
extra speed for a dash to the mead
ows. The car spun along Hamburg
place to Doremus avenue and along
to where the match box fork
breaks the paved road into two mar
row dirt-paved lanes. Both ways
lead to the plant after roundabout
trips. The policeman picked the
road to the right. He reached the
Balbach plant without meeting the
delivery auto coming out. The chase
was continued around the plant and
into the other road When the fork
was again in sight the other ma
chine was discovered numbering
along.
The smaller machine soon caught
the heavier one and a search of the
latter was made. For a half hour
the auto and the high grass beside
the road was gone over for the miss
Ing metal. but 1t was fruitless. The
chauffeur, Clinton Calkin, of 31S Ho-
boken avenue. Jersey City, and Ed
ward Pryor, of 157 Railroad avenue,
this city, were ordered to dfsmount
and help in the search.
Their refusal aroused the detec-
tives suspicious and another search
was made in the hood of the auto,
under the seat on which the men
were sitting and finally, after lifting
board on which both had their
feet firmly set, the bars of copper
were found in the drip pan beneath
the motor.
The men, the police say, then con-
fessed and told how they slipped the
bars into their hiding place. They
worked for a Jersey City express
man.

BARROW SUSPENDS
NEWARK PLAYERS
Jack Dalton and Harry SWacina
Punished for Yesterdays
MIx-Up With Umpire.

AS a result of the argument be-
tween Jack Dalton, Harry Swacina.
Manager Harry Smith and Umpire
Mullen at yesterdays game between
the Tigers and Baltimore Dalton and
Swacina were fined $50 each and sus-
pended for three days by President
Barrow this afternoon. AS Thursday
is an off-day, the suspension will real
ly be for only two playing days.
Manager Harry Smith succeeded in
convincing President Barrow that his
part in the discussion was merely
that of a peacemaker. Smith assert
ed that he had attempted to smooth
matters over and was elected before
he could explain his position.
The trouble started when Dalton
kicked over a strike, and someone
on the bench took up the kick, using
foul language that was heard all over
the grand stand in the ninth inning.
In the argument that followed Umpire
Mullen elected Smith, Dalton and
Swacina from the game

FURRY IN B. ANDL.
ASSOCIATIONS HERE.
Irregularities Said to Exist in
Books of Sterling
Organization.

There is quite a stir. almost akin
to "squalr in certain building and
loan circles. and the Sterling Build
ing and Loan Association is said to
be the storm centre of the furry.
There is reticence about the mat
ter that in itself attracts attention.
This applies to some quarters. 1t is
different with others. The latter are
too deeply interested in the welfare
of the Sterling and the general good
of shareholders in loan associations
to remain quiescent.
While they know that New Jersey s
laws are designed to guard and pro-
tect shareholders and holds officials
and directors to strict accountability
for Shortcomings, they are of the
opinion that. for the betterment of
all, not limiting the quality of bene-
ffcence to one association, the tonic
of publicity should he administered.
AIIege Deficit Is shown.
1t is said that the books of the
Sterling show a deficiency of from
$500 to s3,100; that the directors
have already signed an agreement TO
make up this deficiency and that an
official who is in a position to know
just why the conditions are as stated
has been relieved of his duties and
that word of the situation has been
forwarded to the banking and insur-
anee department
The bond of the official in ques-
ton covers only on 81 orc, which
amount doesn't meet the deficiency.
A limited time for explanations and
all that explanations may imply, has,
II is given out, been granted.
0ficiaI Is In Another Association,
1t is further said that the official
of the Sterling, is also a director
in the Sixteenth Ward Building and
Loan Association. He has been re-
quested to resign from the last
named organization.
"If things are not right some per-
sons will have to make them right
and that is all there is to It," was
the emphatic declaration ofa share
holder in the Sterling today.
When asked for particulars, the
president of the Sterling declined to
say more than to refer the Star re-
porter to the counsel of the asso-
citation, who declined to discuss the
matter, explaining that his rela-
tions with the associat ton were con-
fidential in their nature.

TWO MORE RABIES
CASES DISCOVERED
Patients at City Hospital Were
Bitten by Same Dog as
Pearson, Suicide Victim.

Investigation by the bachteriologiA
cal laboratory of the City Hospital
into the case of Walter Pearson. who

that two other persons were bitten by
the same dog. The victims are Pear

297 Amherst street, East Orange. a
brother law of the dead man. Both

Nearly six weeks ago. while Pear
son. who lived at So Winthrop street,
was visiting at Beel's home in East
Orange. Pearson interfered to save
tomobile who was throwing stones
at it. He and Beel placed it in a
little express wagon with Lydia
Pearson. who adopted the animal as
pet. 1t soon became sulky and
scratched the three victims. The dog
became so unmanageable that Reel
shot it,
Feeling that their wounds were not
serious, all of the dogs victims ne
elected to have them treated. Sunday
Pearson became so serious that he
went to the hospital for treatment.
He suffered intense agony, and yes
terday ended his life by plunging
from the window. An autopsy per-
formed upon him showed that he had
an advanced attack of rabies. His
daughter and brother-in-law were
hastily summoned to the hospital and
will receive treatment
The Pasteur treatment, administered
at the hospital by DR.. Richard Con-
nelly, the city bacteriologist, consists
in injecting anti-toxin into the abdo-
men every day. A cure is usually
affected in ten days DIR. Connolly is
hopeful o fsaving both of his patients.

COTTON BELT ENGINE
 BREAKS LOOSE SUNDAY
IRON MOUNTAIN PASSENGERS HAVE NARROW ESCAPE WHEN
 NEAR.COLLISION OCCURS.
Switch Locomotive Runs Away Rut Stops Two Miles
 From City.

Meager reports from the Cotton Belt railway headquarters this (Sun- day) morning are to the effect that switch engine ran away from the Cot ton Belt yards this morning shortly before 2 o'clock, going over on the Iron Mountain tracks for distance of about two miles from the city.
 What is considered by officials to be an act of Providence is the fact that No. 155, passenger train due within few minutes after the engine broke loose, stopped suddenly and did not meet the runaway locomotive.
 Had No. 155 met the switch engine, the collision would have, in all prob- ability, resulted in the loss of human life.
 On account of the fact that little steam was in the engine, it came to a stop at the hill about two miles from this city, being unable to pull it.
