WindfaII.

Although Frederick Cox is on the
shady side of fifty, is penniless, at
odds with his wife, and must answer
a criminal charge of desertion, he had
an optimistic view about the old

This particular cloud is a little
matter of $4 week he has coming to

Cox asked Vice-C Chancellor Howell
to help him today in answering afti-
davits to his wife's suit for support.
He has been separated from her since
1908, but when he recently heard that
his son had been killed last Septem-
ber and his wife had been awarded
81 week for 300 weeks under the
liability law. he rejoined her at her
home at 2.3 Bank street and had him
self appointed administra tor of the
sons estate. His wife says he de-
serted her a few days later.
He says she brandished a carving
knife and put him out when he told
her he had been made the admins-
traitor.
Cox is a shoe finisher by trade, but
when his eyesight began to fail he
had to quit, and went to attending

RECOVERY
IN HIS OWN HANDS,
DOCTOR DECLARES
Prof. Marchiafava Complains to
Public About POntiff as "Un=
manageable Patient.
HOLY FATHER, CHEERFUL,
INSISTS UPON SITTING UP
congratuIates Physician Upon
the Realization of His Pre-
diction of Recovery.

ROME. April 15.-The clearing up
of the weather today is taken as a
hopeful augury for the recovery of
the Pope.
Father Parolin. the Pope's nephew,
, helped his uncle through his morning
toilet today and gave him his break
fast of weak coffee and milk.
Father Parolin, who has installed
himself in a small room in the Vatl-
can adjoining the Pope's apartments.
declared this morning that the Pope
had suffered from only three cough
ing spells during the night and that
the cough was much easier The
pulse he said. was stronger and the
respiration more regular.
When Professor Marchiafava ap-
peared the Pope was so cheerful that
he joked with the physician and con-
graduated him on the realization of
his prediction of recovery. Professor
Marchiafava answered;
'I will make another prediction,
you will have further relapse If
you do not patiently fulfil the doctors
commands"
Insists He Feels Better to BE Up.
The Pope insisted. however, that
remaining in bed would make him
nervous, and Professor Marchiafava
permitted him to sit up in a chair
for a few minutes while his bed was
being made. but would not allow him
to walk.
At II o'clock the Pope was assisted
from his bed and removed to an arm
chair close by. He had been there
only a few minutes when he showed
signs of dissatisfaction,
THAT tyrant Marchafava." he re-
marked. "forbids me to walk. At
least carry me to the window that
may enjoy the SUM-"
This was done Immediately. AT noon
the pontiff took some chicken jelly,
which seemed to refresh him greatly.
Professor Ettore Marchiafava, the
Pope's physician. gave out the fol-
lowing statement today;
Statement by Doctor.
"The illness of the Pope is now
taking its normal course. The patient
was much better during the forenoon
after his nights rest. He had a
slight setback late yesterday after
noon. when his temperature rose
slightly.
"If 1t is possible to induce Pope
Plus to follow the orders of his medi-
cal advisers. the amelioration in his
condition will bring with IL a re-
vival of strength.
I'm other words the recovery of the
Pope is chiefly in his own hands.
THE Pope is most difficult pa
tient to ceal with. While apparently
giving in to the recommendations of
his physicians, the moment he feels
slightly better he insists on having
his own way, saying, L command
here"

COMMISSION VOTE
IN HUDSON TODAY
Four Municipalities Are Ballot
ing on Adoption of the
Walsh Act.

JERSEY CITY, y. j., April Is
This city, Hoboken, Bayonne and
Union Hill are voting today on the
commission form of government
The general interest in the result of
the election in this city was demon
strated by the many applications for
transfers. About 1000 were granted
In Bayonne those favorlng the com
mission form of government assert
positively that they will win. This is
practically conceded.
A close vote is expected in Hoboken,
although the "ants" claim that they
will defeat the proposition.
In Union Hill, where it was difficult
to obtain a sufficient number of sign
ers to legallze the petition calling for
an election, it Is almost a foregone
conclusion that the commission
scheme will meet with hostile vote
of two TO one.
The feature of the day was the un-
expectedly heavy vote of the so-called
HIP section of Jersey City. This
Is the best residential part. During
the morning hours of an election day
there is usually little interest shown
in these districts, but today the polls
were busy from the very start
In the downtown business section,
however, the voters seemed more
apathetic. 1t was generally conceded
this afternoon that the vote in those
districts would be light.
The elections will be void If 80 per
cent. of the voters do not turn out
Both sides seem to think, however,
that fairly large vote will be polled,
and both are confident of victory.
The action of Joseph p. Tumulty,
private secretary TO President Will
son, in wiring his intention of voting
here today, greatly pleased the ad-
vocates of the commission plan.
County Judges Mark A. Sullivan and
Robert Carey were at the court to
give advice TO voters and straighten
any tangles.
In Bayonne Mayor Mathew Cronin
has sheaded the opposition. DR.. Bert Daily
and jeremiah Hill, two employees of
the county institution at Snake Hill,
who lost their positions through the
efforts of Mr.. Cronin and his friends
on the old Hudson County Board OF
Freeholders, have been active workers
for the commission plan.
Mayor Wittpenn, of Jersey CITY, is
avowedly in favor Of the commission
plan, but practically two-thirds of the
Office holders under him are said to
have worked secretly against the
proposition. Both sides are bitter and
reprlssls of one sort and another are
bound to follow the election, no mat
ter what the result.

ASK JURY BILL
REFERENDUM
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED
BY ESSEX DEMOCRATS

We, the undersigned, MEM
bers of the Essex County Dem
ocratic Committee, while cele-
brating the birth of Thomas
Jefferson-that great founder
of Democratic ideals-believe
it fitting at this time to urge
all Democratic legislators of
this State to uphold the rule
that decisions of the majority
is the vital principle of re-
publics.n
To this end we urge that our
legislators give evidence of
their faith by insisting that a
referendum be added to any
measure of such Importance as
the proposed jury bills.
For years the Democratic
party-aided by the constant
efforts of Hon. William Jen-
nings Bryan-has urged the
adoption of the referendum.
To refuse the people this OPP
portunitys is to take a step
backward.
The people may be trusted
The jury bills strike at the
very root of our personal
liberty.
We, therefore, again urge our
legislators to be true to the
principles they represent and
consistent in practising what
they preach.

WASHINGTON. April IS.
ii is probable that President Will
son will spend two days in New Jer-
sey campaigning for jury reform be-
fore the special session of the Legis-
lature, called by Governor Fielder
for May 6.
Secretary Tumulty said today that
the dates and arrangements for the
speeches the President will make in
the State would be decided after
consultation with officers of the civic
forum, which is actively interested
in the fight for jury commissions.
The President, said Tumulty. is
entirely in sympathy and accord
with the purposes for the special ses-
sion as set forth in the Governors
proclamation. In his New Jersey
speeches he will urge that not only
jury commission, but constitu-
tional convention and remedial small
county board legislation be made
subjects for consideration and ac-
tion by the Legislature. II. B. w.

O. K. ofCongress
Star Bureau,
Metropolitan National Bank Bldg,
WASHINGTON. April IL


Newark's new postofice cannot be
built Immediately. Congressional
permission to begin the erection of
the new Federal building must be
secured before one brick may be laid
on another.
This is the substance of an opinion
given by Attorney-General Nc
Reynolds today. The public building
act, the opinion relates. so far as it
applies to the new building for the
New Jersey city, provides merely for
the acquisition of a new site by con-
demnation or other means. and the
fate of thes present building.
Special permission must he gotten
from Congress- though. before the
actual work Of building may be
started.
Application for permission for the
new Federal building will probably
not be made by Congressman Mccoy
during the present special session Of
Congress- He will probably bring the
matter before the House, however,
early in the regular session. and
there seems no likelihood of permis-
sion to erect the structure not being
given. H. B. w.
