LUXURIOUS "JUNKET'
AT STATES EXPENSE
One Newarer Curtis r. Burnett Among Notables Who Viii
Enioy $500 Trip to Coast Select Accept and Ded
cate New jerseys Building at Panama-Pacc Exposition

cial, representing Governor James F.
Fielder
He boarded the special car at Jer-
sey City and Mr.. Burnett Joined him
at the Manhattan Transfer station, so
the rest of the commissioners Joined
them at Trenton.
The party will consist of ten com
| missioners, secretary and an assist
ant vice-president. No delegation,
commissioned to spend State money,
ever started from this State with such
rrincely and elaborate plans.
The excuse for the trip is to select
the site for the State building. AS a
matter of fact, however, the site has
already been selected or rather as
signed by the exposition management
and the ink on the deed has grown
cold.
1t is understood, however, that the
commission will actually spend a few
hours transacting official State busi-
ness. They will accept the deed,
plant the Jersey colors in the turf,
shake a ida da' to the California
State troops who will be there to fire
a salute in their honor, and then be
off again on their 10y ride
To receive the deed though, the
commission will have to stay in
to arrive there June Is at 1890 o'clock
in the forenoon and depart at the
same hour on the 18th.
Trip Back No Falling on.
On their return, as on their trip
out, they will miss no picturesque
places. The expense to the State of
this trip per man is estimated at s400
The trip to California and return by
first-class millionaire can be made
for $3.50, but then the State of New
Jersey. of course, must spend more
than an ordinary millionaire. They
travel so commonly nowadays"
While the commission has no Of
fetal business to transact at Colo
RADIO Springs. it will spend from mid
night on June until about 10 p. M.
June 9 there.
Another nifty diversion will be
INDUCED in at Salt Lake City, where
the commission will remain in regal
style from midnight June 10 until
midnight of the next day. Then the
''joy-riders' will proceed to Frisco,
where, with due solemnity, they will
crowd into three days the arduous
task of accepting the State deed.
There will be some "galavanting"
about the Golden Gate, no doubt, but
the State will pay for it, so the COM
missioners will have good time.
1t is to be expected that when they
return to their homes they will be so
tired out as a result of their official
labors that they may be obliged to go
to the seashore for vacation.
Besides Messrs Hudspeth and Bur-
nett the commission consists of for
mer Governor John Franklin Fort,
State Treasurer Edward e. Grosscup,
Joseph w. Waddington. Mayor Fred
erick w. Donnelly, of Trenton; GEN
eral Dennis f. Collins. of Elizabeth:

A party of New Jersey men are n.y.
ing across the continent today in a
special car on one of the "softest
trips ever offered the political princes
of this realm. They are bound for
the Pacific coast to Select" accept
and dedicate with all due formality
the site for the New Jersey State
building at the Panama-Pacific ex-
position in 1915.
They will be gone three weeks, for
California is quite long ride from
Jersey. Then, too, the State has APP
propriated $4,000 for the use of the
commission. Why should they
hurry? or worry? for that matter.
And there are SO many interesting
places to stop off at en- route to
Frisco that the delegation could not
very well pass all these by. They
must uphold the dignity of the State
and that $4,000, too, so it will pay
visits to Colorado Springs, Salt Lake
City, Los Angeles, Seattle, Victoria,
Vancouver, Lake Louise and Banff.
Curtis r. Burnett, of this city, is
the only Newarker on the trip de
luxe. Robert S. Hudspeth, prosecutor
of Hudson county, is the State off,

CITY TO ASK FOR
! SILVER SERVICE
Library Trustees Will Apply to
Navy Dept. for Newark's
Plate for a Time.

Following out the suggestion of
Mayor Jacob Haussling, the board Of
trustees of the Free Public Library,
at its meeting tonight, will, it is ex-
pected, make formal request to the
navy department for the loan of the
handsome silver service that was
presented to the cruiser Newark TWEEN
ty-five years ago.
The present cruiser bearing the
name of New Jerseys greatest city is
to be discarded. and it is the wish of
the mayor to place the service on
exhibition at the library here pend
ing the construction of the new New
ark. There is no doubt but that the
request will be granted by the naval
authorities.
1t was learned by the Star from
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt that
the department would be glad to loan
out the service for exhibition pur-
poses in this city. Usually services
of this kind are stored away by the
department when the ships are dis
carded, pending the construction of
a new one.
Mayor Haussling declared today
that he would make every effort to
attend tonight's meeting of the trus-
tees, and would request in person that
efforts be made to secure the ex-
hibit
The Newark, which is still a per-
fectly sound and sturdy ship, is be-
ing discarded Simply because of
change in style of naval architecture
and construction. 1t was built at
cost to the government of $1,284O00,
and now is to be disposed to the high
est bidder.

Leadville people accord Mrs. Rogers
much credit for the long service of

office this spring by the Bull Moose-s
If he had followed his wife's advice
and refused to gerrymander The city
so as to. throw 200 additional Demo-
cratic votes into his already strong
Democratic ward.
Clubs and society have never hei6
attractions for Mrs. Rogers. She has
pioneered with her tailor husband
in this top of the world section for
many years. She started an apple
orchard on the western slope and has
spent her summers there with ner
daughter, who has recently gradu-
ated from the State Teachers Col

dition to getting her orchard under

LORD MURRAY IS BROUGHT
INTO WIRELESS SCANDAL

LONDON, June 5.--The parliament
airy committee investigating the
scandals connected with the wire
less contracts between the Marconi
Company and the British govern
ment, after several secret sessions,
met in open session today for the ex
animation of new witness named
Salaman. His testimony showed that
Lord Murray of Elibank had pur-
chased in April and May, 1912, some
5000 American Marconi shares at 3A.
The conservative newspapers of
London have recently started an agi-
tation to have the Marconi commit
tee uncover Lord Murray of Eli
banks connection with the scandals.
1t is pointed out in the press that he
resigned his position as Liberal whip
in the House of Commons when the
Marconi contract first came up for
discussion in Parliament and that he
was raised to the peerage on his
resignation. He then went to America
on business where he has since re-
manned, maintaining silence concern
ing the Marconi troubles.

Mrs. Rogers Pays Tribute to Men by Declaring Them Just
Honest as the Opposite Sex-Lays Her Appointment to
Midnight Supper to Congressional Candidates

LEADVILLE, Colo. June 5.-"If
money is safer in the hands of women
than in the hands of men it is be-
to handle it,"
We didn't have any breath to
spare after journeying through the
Royal Gorge UP here to this, the
highest Incorporated town in
America.
But Mrs. Annie G. Rogers quite
took away what little breath we had
by the above answer to the tribute
paid women in general and Mrs.
Rogers in particular when Secretary
Lane appointed her receiver of local
land office. Lane said:
: 81 am particularly glad to appoint
Mrs. Rogers because it is an estab-
lished fact in the United States that
women can handle money more safe
ly than men cam
Secretary Lanes statement was
flashed around the world and caused
much discussion. And Mrs. Rogers
herself settles the question by saying:
"I believe that men are just as hon
est as women--at least, that's true
in Leadville."
She calls herself practical poll
tician, and thinks the women of Eng
land are crazy to attempt to get the
vote by violence.
'I've voted at every school, city,
county, State and national election
for twenty years." she says. "but
wouldn't give the women of England
fha ballot in 1000 wears while thew
persist in their present course.
II got my job, guess, because I
gave the Colorado senatorial and
congressional candidates midnight
supper last fall when they wound
up a hard days campaign here. I
have always voted the Democratic
ticket straight and I always expect
to. And, I guess. I rounded up at
least fifty votes last fall"
So, you see, Mrs. Rogers is a poll

REFORMED CHURCH SYNOD
HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING
TFrom a stan Correspondents


ASBURY PARK, June 5.-The
10th annual meeting of the general
synod of the Reformed Church opened
its sessions with the Rev. William
p. Bruce, of Yonkers, the president
of the synod, in the chair. The open
ing days business will consist of the
election of officers and reading of
reports of various committees, among
them the committee to revise the
constitution
1t is likely that the use of graded
Sunday school lessons will bring up
a warm discussion and the members
are awaiting the opening of argu-
ment on the subject. The synod,
like the Presbyterian assembly re-
Gently, may reject the graded les
sons on the ground that they are too
modern and deviating from the
Bible.
Tomorrow night young peoples
work will be taken up by the meet
ing, and early in the week foreign
and domestic missions will be dis
cussed.

JAIL FOR PRETTY
STRIKE LEADER
Hannah SiIverman Sentenced
to Twenty Days for Con-
tempt of Court.
IRON a star corresponaent.1

PATERSON, N. j., June 5.-Like
Joan of Arc, to whom the silk strik-
ers compare her. Hannah Silverman
ran afoul of judicial displeasure to-
day.
Recorder Carroll in the police court
sentenced her to serve twenty days
in Jail for contempt.
Several times before has the pretty
strike leader been sentenced by Re-
corder Carroll, but always after a
strike riot This time the punishment
fell like bolt
Attends Price Trial.
The girl, who is on trial with forty
three other strikers for alleged I'M
lawful assemblage, had left Judge
Klenert's courtroom and gone to
police headquarters to listen to the
trial Of Harry Price. of 269 Lane
street. Price was arrested last night
as one of the three men who as
saulted a Mrs. Rose Banghart and
Miss Mary Hall on their way home
from the Rose & Cohen mills.
Hannah Silverman did not like the
way one of the witnesses testified
against Price, who is one of her CO.
defendants in the unlawful as
semblage case. and she expressed her
annoyance by "clucking" under her
breath.
Recorder Carroll has keen ears. He
knows, too. the girls reputation as a
strike leader, her Wonderful power
over the strikers and her quick wit.
Bring that woman to TIE bar" he
commanded.
Two policemen went to escort her,
but she waved them off with tie Dig
nifty Of a queen. Head IN air, she
walked sedately down the aisle to the
bar and looked the recorder soUarely
in the face.
Young woman" he said, you are
adjudged in contempt of court. 1
sentence you to twenty days
The girls gaze never wavered.
Just as she had done once before
when he had sentenced her. she re-
piled, while a glimmer of a smile
passed over her face:
"Thank Your Her Answer.
Thank you"
Price was sentenced to thirty-six
days.
The absence of Hannah Silverman
from Judge Klenert's courtroom was
marked by the strikers when the trial
was resumed at II O'Clock. The news
of her sentence cast a gloom over the
defendants, for she had been the
brightest of them all and the ac-
knowledged leader.
Max Goodman, one of the defend
ants, was the first witness called.
He said that he had not been picket
ing at the Harding mill on the after
noon he was arrested.
IT had seen the crowd" he ex
planned, "and l wanted to find out
what had happened"

GOT INSURANCE ON DEATHS
OF FICTITIOUS PERSONS

COLUMBUS, o., June 5.-Pleading
guilty of using the mails to defraud
and of having collected life insurance
on the supposed deaths of persons
who never existed, William Vokolek,
an attorney of Pittsburgh, Pa, was
today sentenced by United States
District Judge John E.. Safer to serve
eighteen months in the penitentiary
at Moundsville, w. Va. Vokolek
made plea for leniency, declaring
that the charge against him was the
result of a conspiracy growing out of
rivalry between life insurance COM
panies which made speciality of in
surance among the foreign-b born
population.
At the same time, however, he con-
fessed that he had collected $500 on
policies held on the lives of fictitious
persons.
