Bodemer girl. but never thought that
it would go as far as this. From a

time past and always signed them

maiden name.

behind his car.
According to what Mr.. Bodemer

Andrew Bodemer admitted that he
had received a letter from Kilminster

his daughter was a music teacher

WASHINGTON. July 29.-The NOM
nation of Charles S. Hamlin, of Bos-
ton, to be assistant secretary of the
treasury recalled to old treasury en-
ployees today a humorous incident
that occurred when Mr.. Hamlin &C.
cupied the same position during the
Cleveland administration. This is the
reminiscent story:
The minister of finance of Canada
came to Washington to discuss Gus
toms matters. and Secretary of the
Treasury Carlisle notified Mr.. Hamlin
that the minister would call upon
him.
In few minutes man of distin-
guished bearing, with flowing side
whiskers, entered the assistant secre-
tary's office. Mr.. Hamlin greeted him
effusively Each bowed In courtly
fashion. The greetings continued at
the bowling stage until the visitor of
aristocratic mean was found to be
the official clock-winder of the treas

to repeat the performance when the
real minister arrived

This City's Products.

Made in Newark replaces the
world-famous trade mark Made in
Germany as far as this city is con-
cerned A directory of Newark made

press, q sumptuous quarto volume on
heavy Holland paper and printed in
large. beautifully-facedt ypeS V
In Three Languages.
The work is alphabetically arranged
in English, French and Spanish. 1t
is compiled and published by the in
dustrial exposition committee of the
BOARD of Trade of the city of New
ark. Each page is divided into three
sections. so that the titles of the
plants of Newark manufacturers face
each other in the three languages
above mentioned.
The whole work is a wonderful ex-
position of the industrial strength of
Newark. Yet it is not to be left to
tell it's story without aid or dissem-
nation. The book is to be sent
broadcast throughout the world to
every manufacturer in the United
States and to all chambers of COM
merce and boards of trade in Europe
and the Far East. Especially will it
be the duty of the committee to see
that 1t reaches every part of South
America.
1t would seem in this respect that
the committee had heard of the lux
urious work of John Barrett, of the
Federal Bureau of South American
Republics, whose detailed account of
the trade and manufactures of Peru
brings that astute diplomatist an
income from the Peruvian Govern
ment of nearly $65,00O a year.
1000 Factories Here.
Newark. as the preface of the di-
rectory says, is greater in industrial
wealth per capita than any other
city in the country. 1t has more
than two thousand manufacturing
concerns, representing more than
two hundred and fifty branches of
industry.
When it is said that these vast
interests are classified and arranged
in perfect. simple system in Eng

can go no further.

HUSBAND RETURNS
HOME;;K|LLS SELF
Furchak Had Been Away Since
Thursday, After Quarrel
With Wife.

Missing from his home, Sc Lille
street, since last Thursday night fol-
lowing a quarrel with his wife, An
drew Furchak, AZ years old, returned
early today and going into the YARD
shot himself with a 32-calibre revol-
yer. A hurry call was sent In for
the police of the Fourth precinct, and
Patrolmen Tuckman and Nuremberg
were sent to the place in the automo-
bile in charge of Driver Hurst.
When the police arrived Furchak
was still alive and resisted the ef-
forts of Hurst to put him in the ma
chine. He was taken to the City
Hospital, where he died in the receiv-
ing room.
Mrs. Furchak had not seen her hus-
band since he left home after the
quarrel, in which he accused her OF
infidelty. According to Mrs. Fur
chalk, she was standing in front of
the house at the time waiting for
some friends with whom she was
going to a nearby moving picture
show. when a man whom she had
never seen before asked her for d.
rections to a certain address. Just
as the stranger was leaving her hus-
band came along, she declared. and
accused her of being on intimate
terms with the stranger.
A quarrel followed, she said, which
terminated in her husband packing
UP his personal belongings and leav-
ing the house, saying he would never
return. She had not heard from him
since, she said.
The Furchaks have three children,
Susie, IA; Michael, II. and Andrew, 8.
Mrs Furchak has been taking in
washing to help support the children
because her husbands work hes not
been steady The oldest girl has also
been working during vacation for a
local physician.

ESSEX MEASURES MAY BE
SPECIAL SESSION TOPICS


Governor James F. Fielder yester-
day called a special session of the
Legislature for August to remedy
the defects in the commission gov
eminent law, matter that has given
the people of Hudson county great
concern since the recent election in
Jersey City, in which the Wittpenn
regime was overthrow.
1t had been predicted for some time
by The Star that Governor Fielder
would call the extra session, and the
people of Essex have also been anx-
iously awaiting the call
ut is more than likely that two
measures in which the people of this
county are deeply interested will be
introduced at the special session. The
leather manufacturers of this city are
DESTROYS of having a law enacted for
the appointment. of official measurers
in order that they may be able to
comply with the provisions of a law
recently put into effect in Massachu-
sets. to which State several of the
local manufacturers ship their goods
provisional Measurers Recognized.
Until legislation could be obtained
the Massachusetts authorities agreed
to recognize measurers for the leather
industry appointed by Mayor Hauss-
ling and a number were sworn in
the other day. The manufacturers,
however, today welcomed the call of
the Governor, and they feel that they
will now be able to put an end to
oNp trouarou opna f1r oil
The manufacturers early in the con-
troversy, when it was believed that
special session of the Legislature
was possible, retained Police Judge
Simon Hahn to draft bill for pre-
sentation in the Legislature, and this
bill will be introduced by one of the
Essex assemblymen on Tuesday.
Another matter in which the people
of Essex are interested is law gov
erning the disposition of mad dogs,
and an attempt may be made to have
such bill introduced.
Senate Defeats Mad-dog Bill.
A bill of this nature was introduced
at the regular session of the Legis-
lature and passed the House but was
defeated in the Senate
There may be some objection to the
introduction of bills other than the
one for which thesspecial session was
called and the Governor himself said
yesterday that he did not believe the
session would last more than an hour
and would cost the State about $50.
1t is not thought. however, that
there will be any objection to the
leather manufacturers bill, as it is
matter in which the leather men
of the entire State are vitality inter-
ested.

STEAM SHOVEL BEATEN
in FIGHT WITH COURT

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July 29,--when
a steamshovel interferes with the
Allegheny county courts the steam
shovel must cease operations, and
when the superintendent In charge in
dicates that, in his mind, the re-
moval of Pittsburgh's hump is OF
more Importance than the dispensa-
ton of Justice, the superintendent
must go to Jail.
These principles were laid down In
Common Pleas Court yesterday by
Judge r. A. Kennedy, who was an
noyed by the putting of steam
shovel engaged in excavation on a
street near the court house. He or
dered the shovel stopped, and when
the noise continued he issued a war;
rant and had the crew brought into
court.

The ground floor of the Consolidated
Safety Pin Company, in Farrand
street, Bloomfield, was covered with
a foot of water.
Streets Are Covered.
The gates were closed at the dam
of the plant along Toney's brook.
When the stream overlooked its
banks it covered Farrand and Wash
ington streets with mud and water.
Washington street for time was
closed to pedestrians.
"A sixty-foot hagpole on the roof of
the Doremus building, Bloomfield and
North Fullerton avenues, Montclair,
was shattered by bolt of light
ming. The pole was broken off few
feet from the bottom and the wood
was strewn about the streets. No
damage to the Doremus building sor
surrounding property was caused by
the accident. The same bolt which
destroyed the flagpole travelled across
the street to the tower of the First
Presbyterian Church A handrail was
damaged. The damage to the edifice
does not exceed $50.
While many pedestrians were
caught in the storm in the Oranges
no damage to property was reported.
Delays We're caused by the storm on
the Crosstown line, from Bloomfield
to Orange, and the Valley Road line,
from Upper Montclair to Orange.
These delays were brief. caused by
sand being washed on the tracks by
the water.
The heaviest damage to the troll
ley and lighting Service was re-
ported in North Hudson and Ber-
gen counties. The burning out of
transformer at Hackensack caused
an interruption of an hour in the
| lighting service for that vicinity and
| Interruptions for about the same
| length of time occurred at Fort Lee
and Englewood as a result of short
circuits and the burning out of oil
switches. Earlier in the afternoon
a 1,0OO-kilowatt generator burned
out in the local power house at the
ton had to be shut down Temporal
rily.
Car Lines Halted.
Fifty cars We're disabled on vari-
Gus lines in North Bergen and Hud-
son counties. On many places the
streets were flooded as the sewers
were overtaxed and could not take
the water as quickly as necessary.
The water rose to such a height as
to disable the motor equipment of
! the cars.
The Hackensack and East Ruth
erford lines, as well as the Pater-
son line, were tied up for about an
hour because cars were derailed. The
derailments were due to the sand
washed on the tracks. AS the tracks
were covered with water the blocked
rails could not be seen by the mo-
tormen and the cars were lifted
from the tracks

Evening Star Saturday, and in spite
of the heat the church was crowded
at both services"

which Secretary Bryan appeared to
continue conferences on the proposed

Early today it had not been de-

President Wilson had no announce

The fact that some of the media

mental in Npersuading Porflrio Diaz

the point Of informing Secretary Bry-
an what they have in mind. No
developments are expected for at
least a fortnight, during which the
administration here will keep in close

The argument the Mexicans are
said to be planning to place before
Huerta is that the United States un-
der no circumstances would recognize
his regime, and that to extricate
Mexico from it's financial straits it
Is necessary to establish a new adj

President Huerta is willing to abdi-
cate, men acceptable to him as well
as to the constitutionalists have been

developments on the situation gen.

July 29-The soldiers of the Fourth

times yesterday and last night.
The first battalion suffered the
most, as they had been sent out on

storm broke. Shelter tentsN were
pitched and during a lull in the
storm enough dry wood was foraged
to enable, them to cook the evening
