MAYOR CONDEMNS
WOODEN PAVING
Quotes Report of Engineer to
Show Mechanic Street Con-
tracts Were Violated.

Mayor Haussling this afternoon
sent to the Board of Works a report
of Colonel James w. Howard in
which it is said that the wood-block
pavement of Mechanic street is not
in accordance with the standard
specifications of the city.
In his letter transmitting the docu-
ment to the board. the mayor said:
THE issues of fact are so plain
and unmistakable as to require, in
my judgment. further investigation
into the matter"
Colonel Howard's report set forth
that the first or original contract
specified "creo-resinate wood block
but that the blocks used
did not answer that description and
otherwise did not conform to or meet
the requirements of the contract.
The report states also that the sec
ond or later contract and its specifi-
cations was not conformed to in at
least two respects. 1t is charged
that the preservative used was light
or regular creosote oif' and
not "the heavy oil or coal tar product
set forth in the said specifications,
and that the. quantity of creosote
Gil used was fourteen and one-half
pounds per cubic foot of wood and
not between nineteen and twenty,
as set forth in the requirements.

F|ELDER'S VOTE TO
PASS 10000 MARK,
IS LATEST CLAIM
Governor=elect Has Probably
Carried Fifteen Counties,
Revised Figures Show.
DEMOCRATS FIGURE HIS
PLURALITY AT 5000
Essex county's Progressive
Vote Far Below the Expected.
The Legislature Makeup.

Further revised figures of the
gubernatorial election today indi-
cate that the plurality Of James f.
Fielder will be we'll over tbs $4,000
mark.
At the Democratic State headquar-
ters. in Jersey City. it was said this
forenoon that the governor-elect :
plurality was then close 10 49,
over Edward Q. Stokes and that i
was confidently believed the official
returns, when filed at Trenton, viii
show $4,000.
Everett Colby's total vote in the
State is not expected to exceed 40, 0oo
1t is believed many Progressives cast
tehir ballots for Fielder, believing
that 1t would do more good than
voting for, the former Essex senator.
This was especially the case in this
county, where Colby only polled
about 1000 votes despite the fact
that II is his home
Mr.. Fielder has probably carried
fifteen of the twenty-one counties OF
the State. Included among THOSE
counties on the Fielder side of the
ledger Is Cumberland county, the
home county of the Republican
nominee.
Mr.. Fielder even trounced the lat
ter in his home town of Millville.
Mr.. Stokes carried six counties
\ Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape
May, Mercer and Passaic.
Mr.. Colby did not show to the fore
in a single county.
MIR. Stokes's largest plurality was
in Camden county, which he carried
over by $500.
The Democrats will be in control
of the Senate. They elected four OF
the eight senators balloted for on
Tuesday.
In the Assembly the Republicans
their membership by thir-
teen. This year they will have
twenty-five representatives in the
lower house, as compared with nine
lest year The Democrats will have
thirty-eight, whereas last year they
had fifty-one.
The Democratic majority in both
houses insures the selection of a
Democrat to succeed Edward j. Ed
wards. of Jersey City, as State comp
troller.

URGE WILSON TO
NAME SUCCESSOR
TO JUDGE CROSS
Prosecutor Hudspeth, OF Hnd-
son, Said to Be Favored-Wes-
colt and Davis Mentioned.
TspecinI to the Newark star.I

TRENTON, Nov. 6.-President Will
son is being urged to appoint n sue
cessor at once to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of the late
Judge Joseph Cross. The business of
the United States District Court here
and in Newark Is increasing at such
q rapid pace that a new judge to
permanently take care of the work
win be asked of the President. Judge
Bradford, of Pennsylvania, is assist
ing Judge Rellstab at the present
time in this district.
Prosecutor Robert S. HudSpeth, Of
Hudson county, is understood to have
the preference as the successor of
Judge Cross Mr.. Hudspeth is pointed
out as an original member Of the Will
son Kitchen cabinet" when the
President was governor, and fur
ther he has stood firmly for
James Il. Fielder for governor after
the edict from Washington bowled
Mayor Wittpenn out of the race.
Another condition from partisan
political viewpoint is that Hudspeth
would be backed by Governor Field
ers friends for the judgeship in order
to give Fielder the appointment of
prosecutor in his home county.
Judge John w. Wescott, OF Cam
den, has also been prominently men
ton. II is likely. however, that the
position viii go to a North Jersey
man, principally because of the
opening of the branch court in New
ark and a judge from the northern
part Of the State would be easily ac-
cessble to lawyers in that section at
all times, where two-thirds of the
business of the court comes from.
District Attorney J. Warren Davis
also has been spoken of as a prob
ability in the list of those mentioned
as Judge Cross's successor Mr..
Davis, however. is understood to be
partial to the selection of Prosecu-
tor Hudspeth.

COURT ENJO|NS
NEW YORK PAPER
Scientific American Accused of
Misrepresenting Facts in
Story of Suit.

A rule To show cause why an in
junction restraining the Scientific
American, a weekly publication, from
printing any further alleged misrep-
reservations of its recent suit with
the Scientific American compiling
department was issued today by
Vice-C Chancellor Emery in Chancery
chambers. The application for the
injunction was made by the compil-
Ing department concern, which pub
fishes the Encyclopedia Americana.
Mum & Company, of New York
city, publishers of the Scientific
American, sued the Scientific Anerl-
the latter concern from further use
OF the name, Scientific American
Compiling Department" The COM
plainant won the suit after showing
that the compiling concern was using
the name under an agreement and
that the agreement had expired.
In its issue Of November 8, half of
which has been distributed, the Scien-
tifc American devoted page to an
article on the outcome of its suit.
This article, according to the Scien-
tifc American Compiling Depart
ment, Is a misrepresentation of the
court utClSlOH duu has INDUCED per-
sons to invest heavily in the concern
which won the suit
The compiling company asked the
court to restrain the circulation of
this weeks paper concerning the ar
ticle on the suit. It was declared that
the owners Of the paper had rushed
this weeks issue to press so as to
avoid the injunction. A. A. Hopkins,
representative of Mum & Co. denied
this statement with evidence show
ing that mechanical accident had
held up the issue for one day.
ce-Chancellor Emery announced
that he could not restrain the circu-
lation of the Scientific American for
this week, as half the numbers had
already been distributed. The court
issued a rule to show cause why the
Scientific American should not be re-
strained from printing other mis-
representations of the recent suit in
subsequent issues.
When he decided the former case
and enjoined the use of the name
scientific American Compiling De-
partment" by the publishers of the
Americana, the vice
chancellor enjoined the defendants
from printing any articles on the suit
which would misrepresent the facts.
The ruling of the court today places
the same injunction on both COM
panies.
The hearing on the rule to show
cause, issued today, will be heard be-
fore the vice-chancellor next Wednes-
day

to Accept Any Mali That
Is Not Properly Marked

Because of the numerous complaints
that have reached Washington from
all over the country of delayed and
non-delivered mail, First Assistant
Postmaster-Ge Daniel c. Roper
has issued a circular letter to all post
masters asking their cooperation in
improving the service.
A copy of the letter was received
by Postmaster Frank j. Book today
and asserts that the delay in the de-
livery is caused lin most cases by mis-
directed letters or letters containing
insufficient address.
The letter asks the local postmaster
not to accept mail matter that is i'm
properly addressed. 1t points out that
correct address should contain,
besides the receivers name. the street
and number and the postoffice. Let
ters addressed to rooms in Office
buildings should contain the room
number. Addresses given as the cor
ner of streets should designate which
corner.>

MILITIA RUSHED
TO QUELL R|OT|NG
IN INDIANAPOLIS
Troops Ordered to Capital in
Special Trains; Car Strike
Grows.
NOT A WHEEL MOVES
ON ANY TROLLEY LINE
City Authorities Unable to Cope
With Crowds and Governor
Takes Control.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 6-The State
militia has been called out to stop
rioting on the streets of this city by
persons in sympathy with the strik-
Ing street car men.
Troops in all parts of the State re-
ceived orders early today to hurry
TO indianapolis under heavy march
ing orders as rapidly as special trains
could get them here. The orders were
not to wait on regular trains.
Governor Ralston said he regretted
that the troops had to be called out.
but that the situation is critical and
he would not delay longer.
Compelled 10 Take Action.
Men are being assaulted and
Killed" said the governor, property
Is being destroyed and there is rioting
IN the streets, which the city snould
have controlled, and I feel 1t is my
duty to take this drastic action
The governor was up all night with
Brigadier- General William J. Mckee
and other officers of the National
Guard, perfecting arrangements for
getting the outside companies to In
d.anapolis and their disposition when
they reach the city. Whether the
troops would be placed on the street
sars. the governor said, had not been
determined.
City Fails to Control Crowds.
The governors decision was
reached after the conference yester-
day with city officials Representa-
tives of clubs and organizations had
failed to reach any agreement on a.
peaceable means of settling the strike.
The rioting in the streets yesterday
when the street car company tried to
run car, which was deserted by
the strikebreakers after they had
been stoned, gave the governor ad-
ditional reason for his action.
After the large committee OF citi-
zens yesterday afternoon unanimous
ly urged Governor Ralston to call
out the militia, he and the officers
Of the National Guard set about at
once to bring the troops here as
quickly as possible.
Delay Calling Local Men.

that the four companies of infantry
and the battery here in Indianapolis
would not be called out until suf-
ficient number OF other companies

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-The bat
tleships Louisiana, ew Hampshire
and Michigan. of the second division
of the Atlantic fleet, which were to
be relieved from duty in Mexican
waters upon the arrival of the four
vessels of the third division, were
today ordered to remain at Vera
Cruz. orders were issued for the ar
mored cruiser California to remain
In Pacific Mexican waters although
original orders to the Pittsburgh
were to relieve the California
Conference at White House.
The news that Huerta would re-
ject the American demands for his
circles without comment Secretary
Bryan had long conference with
President Wilson and Chairman Ba-
con, of the Senate foreign relations
committee, was an early White
House caller. Talk of lifting the
embargo on arms was revived IN
congressional circles with consider
able vigor.
Some senators have told the presi-
dent there was an overwhelming sem
timent in Congress in favor of per-
mitting exports of arms to Mexico.
The president in his address to Con-
gress last August took u position
against lifting the embargo Many
persons have been pointing out to
him, however, that one of the alter
natives open, If Huerta declined to
resign through the efforts of diplo-
macy, was to lend a moral support
to the Constitutionalists movement.
The Constitutionalists declare they
do not wish recognition of their bel
| ligerency, but only wish to obtain
arms on an equality with Huerta.
Wilson May Read Message.
Although discretionary power TO
permit expectations of munitions of
war is vested with the President.
some observers think 1t unlikely that
he would take such a step without
some communication with Congress.

rise to expectations that President
