Essex County Democrats -2ve
Frank 5. katzenbach 1,s4S majority
over the Acting Governor, VINO had
the Endorsement of President Wilson.
Mercer County, in which both the
President and Mr. Katzenbach have
their homes. gave Katzenbach more
than 1000 majority over Fielder.
Princeton Democrats snoweo ,heir
displeasure over Mr.. Wilson's S recenr
appointment of a Republican post
master in that borough, by giving
hatzenbach the lions share of their
votes in the primary.
Everett Colby was nominated for
Governor by the Progressives. de-
feating Edmund B. Osborne. OF
Montclair. who made his campoign
on single tax and municipal owner
ship platform. The small vote cast
in the Progressive primaries. how
ever. deprived the contest of any es-
peeial significance and was dis
heartening to both the victor and tha
defeated candidate.
In Essex the most striking feature
of the election was the emphatic
manner in which Democratic voters
condemned and repudiated the mud
singing and hypocrisy of local news
papers and little group of self-seel<-
ers and malcontents. by their indorse-
ment of the leadership of City Coun-
sci James r. Nugent
The entire list of regular Demo-
cratic candidates for county and city
offices was nominated by big ma
iorities. and Mr.. Nugent was re-elect-
ed to the State committee Mr.. Nu-
gent defeated Mayor Julian A Greg
ory. of East Orange. for the Stats
committee place, by 4.073 votes in the
county at large. and carried the pri-
maries in Newark by more than 5000
ma aiority.
In the Progressive primaries in Es-
sex, Colby beat Osborne by vote OF
about three TO two, having S72 ma
jority n the county. The Colby As
sembly candidates were nominated
over the Osborne group by an aver
age majority of about 800 votes. Or.
W. C. Alexander, of Orange. a negro
physician. was high man on the Os-
borne ticket, getting more votes than
Osborne. Colby supporters said that
the fact of the Osborne Assembly
group being at the head Of the Pro-
gressive list gave them an alphabet-
ical advantage.
Colby beat Osborne in Mercer coun-
ty by about 200 majority. Osborne
had more votes than his opponent in
Hudson, Bergen, Passaic Hunterdon
and Monmouth counties, and the
larger number of the few Progressives
who voted in the other counties were
with Colby.
There were no contests in the Re-
publican primaries in Essex outside
of the gubernatorial fight The sur
prisingly large vote polled by the Re-
publican candidates, in view Of this
fact, and the smashing majority OF
the votes in Stokes's favor, made the
Republican leaders happy in the be-
lief that they viii regain their lost
ground in the coming election. and
that the Bull Moose party was. as
they have claimed. a mere personal
following of Theodore Roosevelt
which will now quickly disappear

REFEREE TO DECIDE
SMITH BANKRUPT
Edwin G. Adams to Sit as Spe-
ciaI Master and Take Tes-
timony Monday.

The responsibility of determining
whether or not Raymond e. Smith,
of Roseville Trust Company fame is
a bankrupt. has been invested in
Bankruptcy Referee Edwin 6. Adams,
of this city, who will sit as a special
master next Monday to take testi-
mony in the matter.
Referee Adams will report his find
ings to Federal Judge John Rellstab.
of the United States District Court
together with any communications
port, Judge Rellstabs decision will
rest to a large degree.
Harrison p. Lindabury, attorney for
Smith, filed his answer to the bank
ruptcy petition filed by George Furst
and the order of reference giving
Referee Adams jurisdiction to hear
the matter was received today.
With the shadow of State prison
hanging over him, Smith said today
that Deputy Banking Commissioner
l.. r. Vredenburgh and he were in a
position to make a complete state
ment of the affairs of the wrecked
Roseville Trust Company in a very
short time if only the remaining one
third depositors would turn in, their
passbooks.
While waiting for the- remaining
passbooks Vredenburgh is carefully
considering the plan proposed by the
directors and some of the depositors
for the organization of the Indemnity
Trust Company to take the place of
the Roseyille Trust Company
Smith was asked today what he
thought of the reorganization scheme.
TT looks all right to me- he said,
When questioned about his plans

in the trust company he is charged
with having looted, he said:
81 haven't made any yet" he re-
piled. i've always had q liking for
my automobile business and for the
last two years l have been looking
forward to giving up my work In the
bank and devoting all my time TO IT,"
Vredenburgh said today that the
final report of the bank examiners
was now being delayed solely by the
failure of about one-third or tho
$500 depositors to return their pass
books to the bank.
Some of them seem to think they
will relinquish the only evidence of
their claims when they surrender
their passbooks," he explained, ''yet
we can't finish our accounting until
we have them all. There have been
a good many clerical errors besides
discrepancies between the amounts in
the passbooks and on the ledgers."
William r. Odell. president of the
trust company had an hours confer
once with Vredenburgh today They
talked over the reorganization
scheme.

examiner.

Currency Bill May Remain
in Committee Until Nov.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.-The adj
ministration currency bin from the
viewpoint of the farmer and the grain
merchant were discussed before the
Senate banking committee today by
a delegation of merchants from the
Northwest who opposed the provisions
of the bill as they expect them to af-
feet the country banks.
Senator Bristow expressed the
opinion that a majority of the COM
mittee would support him in a de-
mand that all bankers, business men,
merchants and others desiring to dis
cuss the bill be allowed to appear be-
fore the committee. If that course is
followed the bill may be in the COM
mittee at least a month and prob
ably until November 1,

HUGHES RECEIVER
TO Be DISMISSED
Notice Is Sent Creditors OF
Contracting Firm Upon
Judges instructions.

As a result of a series of confer
ences between Joseph J. Hughes.
president of the alleged bankrupt Jo-
sept J. Hughes Contracting Company,
William H Masterson, the former
president. and a number of creditors,
Paul r. Lefferts. as attorney for the
receiver of the company. today sent
notices to all the creditors that he
will apply for the dismissal of the
receiver on October 6.
Mr.. Lefferts and Samuel !. Kessler.
representing the bankrupt. appeared
before Federal Judge Joseph Cross
yesterday with an application for the
withdrawal of the bankruptcy peti-
ton. but no action was taken. Judge
Cross instructed the applicants to
give the creditors ten days notice OF
their intentions.
The company was thrown into
bankruptcy last Friday. and Judge
Cross appointed Wilfred c. Roszel as
receiver.
The Hughes Company has two paw
ing contracts for the city now under
way and only forty days in which TO
complete the jobs. The bankruptcy
petition has greatly hampered the
work on the jobs. but progress is now
being made under the direct super
vision of the alleged bankrupt COM
pany. although Mr.. Roszel on record
is in charge of the work. This is
being done so that the work will not
be tied up until after Judge Grass has
handed down a decision on the peti-
tion for the withdrawal of the bank
ruptcy proceedings.
The mailing of notices TO creditors
upholds the story to this effect told
exclusively in the Star on Monday.
Mr.. Roszel. the receiver. has con-
sented to the dismissal of the order
appointing him the receiver.

Democratic leader. To say the vic
tory was a popular one would be
superfiuous, as the figures tell that
story.
The battle against Nugent had been
conducted on such bitter lines, being
marked by spirit of malevolence,
bordering on savagery. The city
counsel was singled out for attack by
hostile newspapers, which con-
Quoted vicious assaults, in
which personal ill-feeling was mani
tested and little regard for the prin-
ciple of fair treatment was shown. In
fact, the element of fair play did not
figure in their methods of warfare.
Mr.. Nugent's well-lnown qualities
of manhood and proved honesty were
studiously concealed in every refer
ence to him. and the most audacious
and day out.
The result of yesterdays primary
speaks for itself. 1t is complete
public vindication of Nugent by the
people at the polls and a rebuke to
tactics employed in the fight against
him.
Gregory himself and his imme-.
diate lieutenants resorted to means
that cannot be too severely con-
demned in their efforts to overthrow
Nugent and land Gregory on the
political throne. Their attempt
proved a dismal failure.
Gregory and his men had paraded
the former as President Woodrow
Wilson's chosen candidate to lead the
Essex fight against Nugent, as the
special representative and champion
of the Wilson policies and principles
in the State committee. The string
was played to the limit. but it was
eventually brought out that the Pres
ident had not even indorsed Gregory
by letter, a means employed by the
chief executive to show his approval
In some cases.

CLEVELAND. o., Sept. N.-In
Common Pleas Court yesterday two
rival Chinese tongs bid up to $4,000
for a Chinese restaurant which is
valued at approximately $500, and the
property was sold to the On Leong

The Hip Sing tong withdrew when
that figure was reached. Until six
months ago members of the two
tongs operated the restaurant in
partnership and harmony. A quarrel
then grew out of the shooting of a
Hip Sing man, and the restaurant
was then thrown into a receivers
