Visit to Oyster Beds in
Southern Jersey. +
Irronn . staa corre.pondent.1

TRENTON, N. J., May 22.-Accom-
panied by State officials and several
Senators, Acting Governor Fielder
and Mrs. Fielder left here today for
two-day trip, the chief object of
which is the inspection Of oyster
beds at Maurice River Cove and Del
aware Bay. Charles R. Bacon. chief
of the Bureau of Shell Fisheries is
in charge of the party.
While the trip was not planned for
political purposes, the citizens Of
Bridgeton have made elaborate plans
for the reception of the Governor and
his party The first welcome there
was an automobile parade and a re-
view of several hundred school chill
dren by the governor.
This evening dinner will be tens
dered Governor Fielder by the Com
mercial League of Bridgeton at
the Commercial Hotel. at which will
be present many prominent citizens
from that section. Following the
dinner there will be reception for
the Governors party. Governor and
Mrs. Fielder will spend the night at
the home Of former Senator and Mrs.
B. M. Minch. Early tomorrow the
governors party will proceed to the
shore and embark on the State guard
boat CIPHER for the trip out on Della
ware bay, which will be reached by
the Cohansey river.
There Will be about 400 sloops
dredging for seed oysters in the bay
for the purpose of transplanting them
to Maurive River Cove. The prin-
cinal object of the trip is to inform
Governor Fielder and others of the
,mportance of the oyster industry in
this State. and to demonstrate the need
of developing the industry and having
1t taken care of by a central body.
At present nearly every oyster bed IN
the state has a commission of its
own, and 1t has long been felt that a
consolidation of these bodies into
one department would be desirable.
1t has been suggested that the Fish
and Game Commission be given entire
charge of the work of looking after
the States oyster beds and of de-
veloping the industry
During the trip Governor Fielder
will be in communication with Ad-
iutant- General Sadler in order to be
in a position to act Immediately
should the strike situation in Whar--
ton necessitate the presence of troops
there.
The greater part of tomorrow will
be spent on the water and the trip
back to the northern part of the
State will be made tomorrow night.

CITIZENS EXPRESS CONFIDENCE IN
TROLLEY TERMINAL NEGOTIATIONS


the proposed new curve at Mulberry
and Market streets would be as bad
feature as that at Broad and Mar
ket streets is now.
II have every confidence in this
board" added Mr.. Jenkinson, and
1 like the'way you have gone at this
problem"
A. w. Snow added his protest
against double tracking Miller street.
]. C. McCurdy said the question of
making the Public Service pay the
city the disputed per cent. tax
should be settled at this time.
Expressing hearty approval of the
terminal project, James Mayo said he
was willing to leave its settlement in
detail to the Board of Works, the
City Plan Commission and President
McCarter, of the Public Service.
F. F. Meyer, jr., former president
of the Clinton Hill Improvement As
ISOLATION, said that organization was
in favor of the terminal scheme and
that it desired to see work started on
the Hawthorne avenue extension this
year.
Opposition to the terminal plan was
voiced by David E. Odds, who said
that 1t was not broad enough con-
ception and should be constructed
with the idea of affording relief for
fifty years at least. From an operat-
ing point of view, he said, it was not
proper proposal to be made.
Speaking for the Ironbound Asso-
citation, Isaac Schlesinger said the
people who live below the railroad
wanted a town car line and one
which would cross the Jackson street
bridge for the benefit of the many
Newarkers who worked in West Hud-
son.
That the congestion at the Four
Corners was a serious menace to trade
was the declaration of Frederick T,
Ward who said that because of the
congestion and the difficulty in reach
ing the vicinity of Broad and Market
streets many shoppers were making
their purchases in New York. Speedy
action should be had to obtain speedy
relief, he remarked
Lathrop Anderson and DIR, Joseph
Kussy, president of the Springfield
Avenue Improvement Association,
both spoke briefly in commentator of
the terminal plan.
Emile j. Bein declared that no part
of the city suffered SO much from the
lack of trolley facilities as the Rose
vile section, and he advocated grant
ing the Public Service an additional
franchise which would permit the ex-
tesion of the Bergen street line on
First street into Orange street and
Roseville avenue. In reply Commits
sioner Gillen said that if the neces-
sary signatures to petition could be
obtained from Roseville residents the
board would be glad to do something
for the section.

Widow, Expecting to Preside,
Finds Another in Chair.

JERSEY CITY, N. j., May a.
Indignant because she was not Sc
lected to preside at a debate on suf-
f-age Mrs. Aithea Bedle. widow of
former Governor Joseph Bedle, left
the parish hall OF st. Stephens Epis-
copa1 Church last night in disgust.
Mrs. Bedle bitterly assailed the
committee for its action and said 1t
was not the courtesy and respect
that she is used to.
"This is the first time in my life
that / have been so grossly Offend
ed" she said. 81 came here from
Trenton with the understanding that
was to preside. and upon my ar
rival I find that another has been
selected.
IT am member of more than
thirty-five societies and have been
successful in putting more bills
through the Legislature and Con-
Kress than any other woman in the
United States. I have always been
treated with courtesy and respect,
but the actions of your committee
tonight exemplifiedl something that I
cannot explain or understand" she
continued.
Mrs. Bedle paused for a moment.
Her attitude was defiant. She spoke
ia loud. convincing voice and her
gestures exemplified her feelings.
At no time i'm my life has such a
thing occurred and at no time have
ever been forced to take the drastic
measures that yoaIr committee has
forced me to tonight I have never
caused dissension, nor am I dis
turber but this acts tonight I cannot
tolerate
Efforts were made to bring about
an amicable adjustment, but she re-
fused to stay in thea hall.
II have had enough she declared.
ssNow please be reasonable, there
was nothing Intentional meant" was
the plea advanced by one.
Reasonable, how can l be reason
able at such an act I came here to
fAize an active part in this debate.
and upon arrivingiI' find / am merely
Spectator"
Mrs. Bedle thensleftithe hall. hur-
riedly.
The hall was now in an uproar,
and questions flew back and forth.
Many upheld Mrs. Bedle. while others
criticised her hastyl action.
No explanation was offered, how
ever, and the debate proceeded.
James Burns presided.

when the meal was finished she
knelt down and prayed with him.

CARNEGIE SCOTS
AT JAPANESE WAR
With 100000 Men at Call
United States Safe from
Attack.

NEW YORK, May 22-Andrew
Carnegie yesterday gave the follow
Ing interview on the Japanese situa-
ton to representative of the Eve
ming Star. He was asked to- speak
on the acknowledgements question.
1.-THE press this morning Is full
of a reputed Japanese crisis. In
my opinion, there can be no crisis or
war in the case of Japan and our
country. The question exciting Cali
fornia just now is not California
question alone. It is an international
question. / have been in Japan and
nobody has more kindly feeling for
that remarkable people than l have.
They are a reasonable people and
know that what their ally, Great
Britain, cannot give them, they have
no right to expect from us. No Jap
anese or Chinese can enter Australia
or New Zealand, and the Canadians
and British Columbia have laws
against their entry. Even the South
African colony of Britain has strin-
gent laws effecting Japanese immi-
grafton. 1t is a worldwide question.
"As a point of international law
all nations have the right to deter
mine who they shall include or eX-
clude as permanent citizens and ex-
listing conditions must be taken into
consideration.
mo nation in the world can in
wade us successfully. nor is there
any which wishes to try the expert
ment. The census shows that we
have $4,000, 900 men subject to call,
the greater proportion of whom
have guns and can shoot, which no
other nation possesses. The number
of men In other countries who have
guns is very small indeed. I have full
confidence that the present admin
istration will show that our terms
are liberal beyond those of any
other English speaking country. In
stead of trying to alarm the public
| the press would be fulfilling a high
| duty If it would state the facts just
as they are and assure the readers
that Japan can have no desire to
quarrel with us, nor we to quarrel
with them.
! "Our message to Japan should be:
Dear Friends-Just look over the
| laws ana rest doodiCh AhoN Whot-
ever other nations concede to you
our republic will go, much further. >
would you say anything about
the necessity of augmenting the
navy?"
There are only two larger navies
in the world. One has more than
2,000, 900 tons of warships That il
Britain. She has to keep the seas
open and import food for her people
I'VE would be foolish to expen6
great sums on our navy. We have
thirty-t three great battleships to-
day and five under construction
The President of the United States
i 1 think, should veto any bill tina
ordered another battleship until thu
five now under construction are com
pleted. We want embassies for ou
ambassadors, millionaires beinl
scarce. The cost of one battleshil
would provide sixty embassies aver
aging $780, each, which is ample
A few embassies might cost more
but the greater number would cos
much less. The masses Of the PEG
pie are nnisled in regard to this
i These battleships will never fire 4
shot but rust into decay"

HIT BY COLD WEATHER

CRANBURY, N. J., May 22-Opin-
ion as to the effect of the heavy frosts
of last week upon the potato crop in
this section of the State is divided.
All Monmouth and Middlesex county
farmers admit that the crop pros
poets have been damaged, but some
growers declare they have Witnessed
a late freeze as bad as this and have
seen the young potato plants recover
and produce fair harvest.
Where, the stalks were not killed
outright, 1t is said, new sprouts will
develop and potatoes will set but will
not grow as large as those not FROST
bitten.
Truck farmers were the most sorely
hit by the frost, and many face a to-
tai loss and have started replanting.

OF HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS

BOSTON, May 22.-The tendency of

Mrs. Orville t. Bright of Chicago.

gress of Mothers and Parent-Teach-
ers' Associations, at the final meet
ing last night of the annual conven-

Mrs. Bright called upon the teach
