SIGHT GOING, PAINTER, ON
EVE OF FAME, KILLS SELF

CHICAGO, June 19.-Despondent be-
cause his eyes failed him just when
he had conceived, after years of
dreaming, the picture he hoped would
make him famous, Carl Mauch, an
artist, took poison and died from its
effect yesterday. He was So years
old
Recently Mauch told a fellow-mem-
Der off, the Palette and Chisel Club
that the inspiration of his life had
come to him and bemoaned the fact
that his eyes were failing him. He
was born in Wurttemberg, Germany,
and his club fellows tell story of
how, when a boy, he chastised the
future king of that province. Ac-
cording to them, it was the rule at
school that the prince should always
be the winner of any game. When
Mauch saw his friends contriving
that the prince should be the victor
he flew into a rage and attacked his
young highness.

LETTER AND PHONE IN THIS
CASE DO NOT MAKE PACT

That an agreement made by letter
and telephone is no binding contract
was the finding of e-Chancellor
Howell today in a suit brought by
Walter B. Hensheimer, of Montclair,
to compel the sale of some property
on Maple street, Montclair, to
Thomas E. Halpin, of Kearny. Hal
pin had written a letter to Hens
heimer offering, as an agent, to buy
the land In his letter, he said: 81
think l can make good my offer of
$500 cash in three months" with a
deposit of $780, Heinsheimer tele-
phoned his acceptance, but Halpin
never paid the $50.
The vice-chancellor dismissed the
suit because the letter, by the words
"I think" expressed doubt about the
sale and because the letter did not
constitute a contract Besides, he
said. to enforce it would work hard
ship on the defendant because his
customer had backed out of the deal.

BAY Halls GIANT
SHIP |MPERATOR
Ramhurg-American Leviathan
Has Notable Welcome as
She Steams to Pier.

HOBOKEN, N. j., June 19.-All the
craft in the bay gave noisy welcome
TO the German marine giant Impera-
tor, the biggest vessel afloat, as she
came up the harbor today bedecked
with remnants, her bands playing and
her sirens believing forth the great
boats maiden greeting.
During the night the pride of the
Hamburg-American line lay off the
municipal pier at Stapleton lighted
her entire length and resembling the
Woodwork building laid fiat upon
the water.
So great was the interest in her
that sightseers gave the boatmen
along the Richmond borough shore a
rich harvest conducting parties
around the big ship.
When she started on her way up
the harbor the small craft gave her
a wide roadway; and over at pier 4.
Hoboken, the roof of the pier had
been cut away at different points and
elevated stages built SO her gang
planks could be let down.
1t was shortly before midnight
when the Imperator anchored at
quarantine. She had been met by
newspaper men, photographers and
moving picture men on Hamburg
American tugs. who, with officials of
the line and city officials, gave her
her formal welcome to America.
1t had been planned to have her
leave quarantine at $3.50, but she could
not dock until the Amerika sailed,
and she did not try to enter her pier
until that vessel had gotten well out
of the way.
There was veritable little army
of tugs lowering about her all the
way up the bay, as the company in
tended to take no chances.
Especial care was taken with her at
the flats between Tompkinsville and
Liberty Island, where there is but 300
feet of water.

9O-CENT GAS RATE
DISPLEASES BOARD
Under Provision Education Of
ficiaIs Find School Bills
Are Fast Increasing.

The cheaper gas rate which was
put into effect throughout the State
on May l may have proved a bonanza
to the individual consumer, but to
the Board of Education it has shown
itself rather expensive proposition
Ever since the ninety-cent rate has
been in effect the board has been
compelled to pay at least fifteen cents
more per thousand cubic feet of gas
that under the old arrangement.
It is likely that the board will take
up the matter for investigation at
its meeting this month. While the
consumption for May this year was
considerably less than for the same
month last year, the bill as rendered
by the Public Service is over $40
higher for this year.
This is a condition which the mem
bers of the board declare should not
exist. Their efforts to have the bill
reduced, however, have proven futile.
Under the arrangement with the
Public Service, under the old s11o
rate, the gas consumption of all the
schools Throughout the city were
taken as bulk. On this the city was
allowed a discount of about % per
cent. if the consumption registered
over 100000 cubic feet, and about 80
per cent. if it was greater than 400 900
cubic feet. This brought the cost to
the city down to from seventy to sew
enty-fve cents per thousand cubic
feet.
The board members were of the
opinion that this arrangement would
be carried out under the 80 per cent.
rate and had visions of very small
gas bills from the present on. Imag-
inc their surprise when the May bill
for gas was presented. The arrange
ment had been discontinued without
any notice and they were compelled to
pay a fiat 90-cent rate.
1t was explained that under this
cheaper" rate the Public Service
could not afford to treat the consump-
ton at all the schools as a bulk and
they therefore treated each institu-
ton as an individual consumer. It
was said also that on any school
which consumed more than 10000
cubic feet within a month. a discount
would be allowed. Investigation de-
veloped, however, that not one of the
schools approach anywhere near this
amount.
A comparison of the present and
former rate may be had from these
figures: In the month of May, 1912,
319, 700 cubic feet of gas was consumed
by the entire school system. For this
amount the board paid to the Public
Service a bill amounting to s23s7S.
In May of this year the total con-
sumption was 31S,500 cubic feet, just
$500 cubic feet less than last year,
while the bill rendered is $2S0. rs.

Members Of the Park Commission.
Edward Fry, John B. Throckmorton
Palmer Campbell and President
Davis appeared before the judges
yesterday in response to an invita-.
ton received from the court. It i
said one Of the Judges told the parH
, commissioners they could not con.
tinue to have a special counsel for
themselves when there are thres
lawyers in the county law depart
ment willing TO serve them withezs
additional expense TO the county.
The meeting was held behind cIosea
doors, and it is said the members ef
the board resented the attempt of the
Judge to dictate to them. It was then
that Judge George G. Tenant is Re.
ported to have told them that a6r
Davis. their president, would not be
reappointed until they dismissed the
counsel.
This action is in keeping with the
wave of economy started by Super
visor James F. O'Mealia, who adj
mitted yesterday that the judges had
been asked to take the action they
have decided upon.
Another reason why the supervisor
wanted to get rid of Mr. Hall wss
because he does not live in Hudson
County. 1t is understood that the
park board will discharge its counsel
and that Mr. Davis will be reap
pointed.
Of the board had a conferences with
the judges yesterday, and. while
many subjects connected with ths
parks were gone over, nothing WAS
said about his reappointment as
commissioner, nor was the appoints
ment referred to in any way
| Mr.. Davis explained that Mr.. Han
i had been engaged as counsel by the
commission because former county
counsel could not attend to their
work. and that as soon as Mr.. Han
:, finished his work in the condemnation
proceedings he would resign.
