HUDSPETH TAKES
SHOT At STOKES
Questions interest in Hudson's
Frauds When Camden and
AtIantic's Went Unnoticed.

JERSEY CITY, Oct. 15.-Every-
body is taking a fling at Stokes now
adays, Prosecutor Robert s. Huds-
peth joins in the chorus today with a
reply to the statements made re-
Gently by the former Governor in re-
lation to the alleged ballot box frauds
in Hoboken during the September pri-
mary. Says Mr. Hudspeth;
Undoubtedly the people of Hud-
son County are very much comforted
in the knowledge that former Gov
ernor Stokes Is taking an interest in
the civic affairs of Hudson County at
this time. But, unfortunately the
people of Hudson County do not take
Mr.. Stokes very seriously in connec-
ton with his utterances made during
a political campaign
1T notice that the former Governor,
in his statement, among other things,
says: Tt is a travesty and an out
rage upon honest government that
such crimes against the suffrage
should occur. The Republican plat
form insists, and I solemnly pledge to
the people of this State. if elected
Governor, to insist upon the passage
of LEGISLATION to prevent such frauds
"If I remember rightly, former Gov
ernor Stokes served two years in the
Assembly, nine years in the State
Senate and three years as Governor
of the State. and 1t is quite pertinent
to ask the former Governor, in view
of his strong denunciation of these
alleged election frauds, what, il any
thing. he did or said during all the
period of his official career in rela-
ton to the outrageous and glazing
fpc tho ha Hot
and the suffrage in the counties OF
Camden and Atlantic by the Repub-
lican machine during the period Of
time referred to-
I'VE have lately had a pronounce
ment from the Republican County
Committee in this county denouncing
the election frauds referred to, and
promising an immediate and thorough
investigation and the exposure of the
culprits, and to carry out this high
sounding resolution the county COM
mittee forthwith proceeded to appoint
as the investigators William p Ver-
don. the machine Republican boss of
Hoboken; former Sheriff Kaiser long
known as a machine Republican in
Hudson County. and Harry Lambert.

connection with the statement of the
former Governor that if he is elected

Tears of No Avail in Face OF
Anti-Plumage Tariff Clause

WASHINGTON. Oct. 15.-Both
frantic and fearful appeals reached
the treasury department today re-
garding the enforcement of the tariff
law inhibition against the bringing
in of bird plumage. One man. WHOSE
dozen cases of grouse were held up
at the New York Customs House,
telegraphed that If he took the
plumage off this game. as required
by the law, his customers would re-
fuse to recognize the birds as
grouse. The law. however, is explicit
that grouse and cartridges, bearing
their plumage. cannot be brought into
the country.
The problem of the aigrettes, worn
on hats by women returning from
abroad. is no problem at all. Tor
treasury officials pointed out that II
aigrettes could come in on women $
hats the way would be made clear
for wholesale importation of them
