NEW "WHITE HOPE" HAS ARRIVED IN CITY
AND FATHER is SURE HE'LL BE A WINNER

Newark now has white hope. Leo
Symanski, of 154 Boyd street, is the
authority for this statement. Syman-
ski knows whereof he speaks, for yes
terday afternoon he became the father
of a bouncing baby boy that tipped
the scales at sixteen and one-quarter
pounds. Today. according to the
father. the future athlete weighed in
at eighteen pounds If the youngster
continues taking on weight at that
rate, Symanski says that in year or
so the boy will. with little training, be
able to help him manage his eight
other children.
An Evening Starfreporter called at
the Symansky home and found BAT

is no easy task. My wife and l had
the usual argument over naming the

son he is and suggested that Her

wouldn't think of 1t. Then she smil-

proper and only name, but l wouldn't
cast my vote that way, seeing that

than Sandow. After an hour of sug-
gestions we finally named him just
plain Joseph
When the reporter asked Mr.. Sy-
mansky the names of the rest of his
children it took some effort on the
proud fathers part to think of them
in the order of their ages without
sighting any of them. After a few
minutes of deep thought he gave their
names as Wladyslaf, twenty years
old William, eighteen; Stephen, six
teen, all three work to help support
the family; Lena. thirteen; Celia,
eleven Mamie, eight, and Frank, six,
who go to school. and Helen, three
years old, whose greatest delight since
Yesterday afternoon is to tease her
new brother.
1t would be hard to find a healthier
looking child whose age is reckoned
in hours. A fine crop of black hair
and two unusually rosy cheeks give
little Joseph the appearance of a child
of six months. According to his par
ents he is a good little baby, and al
though he can use his lungs to, adj
vantage only once since his birth did
his lusty squeal send his father nurse
to the crib, wondering if he was
teething. Although Mr.. Synansky is
steadily employed at laying cement
sidewalks he will not pursue his du-
ties for a few days at least; that is
he will return to work when Joseph
gets acquainted with his brothers and
sisters.

police, may be booked on a charge of
murder
The inquest over Mrs. Elliss body
was TO be opened today, but the police
announced that it probably would be
continued to permit further investiga-
ton of the tragedy.
Ellis, who is at the sBridewel1 Hos
pital was able to leave his bed today,
and in reply to .inquiries regarding his
condition, replied:
"Oh, I am all right. ] viii tell the
whole story Of this terrible affair at
the inquest. i have nothing else to
say at present"
DIR. d. A. II. Waterman, house ply
stefan at the hotel, said he was of the
opinion that Ellis's mind may have
been affected as the result of a dis
ease from which he had been suffer-
ing for several years.
The police have three letters which
Ellis is said to have written at the
hotel Wednesday evening, indicating
that the killing might have been
planned a considerable time in adj
vance.
They read in substance as follows:
