Katzenbach will be favored by the
fact hat he has been more of a state
figure than Mayor Wittpenn and Is
better known from Sussex to Cape
May. On the other hand, Mayor
Wittpenn will have the strong ad-
vantage of the support OF the state
administration and the State Com
mittee with its hold on the county
committees, and also of the influence
OF Governor Wilson, who, before the
campaign iasaemanth older, will be
in the White House. TIE WAr1rtpTslHf4
men feel that the support of the
President of the United States will
be a big factor in starting their can
didate or the road to victory.
There has been evidence already
in the legislature Of the coalition OF
the Hudson and Essex county forces.
This was seen, for instance Tuesday
afternoon, in the fight to amend the
Newark $4,000, 600 subway bill.
Nugent personally directed the Essex
assemblyman in this fight, operating
from the lobby, and had the aid Of
Assemblyman Martin, OF Hudson,
who leads the three anti-Wilson
members from the latter county.
There has been talk that Senator
James F. Fielder, of Hudson, would
also be a candidate for the nomina-
ton, and some Of his friends in
Hudson persist in booming him. The
general impression is, however, that
Senator Fielder will not run. He
has declared that the honor OF being
governor from March 4, when Cover
nor Wilson becomes President, until
the third Tuesday in January next,
when the new governor will be in
augurated, will be honor enough for
him and he will not seek this nomi-
nation. 1t is possible, OF course, that
the plea of his many friends that he
enter the race might become so
strong that he would be induced to
enter the contest, but this is regard
ed as improbable at the present time.
Former Senator William C. Geb-
hardt, of Hunterdon. still ch~erishes
~gubernatorial aspirations. He SAYS
he will seek the nomination and that
at the proper time he will officially
declare himself. He claims to have
been one of the original P~rogregsives
in the Democratic ranks in the state
and that his record along this line
him to consideration by the
voters. His candidacy is not taken
very seriously and it is the general
opinion that he will not get very far
in the race.

Democratic Leaders Discuss
Effect Of His Candidacy

GOVERNOR FOR WlTTPENN
At Least All Men Associated
With Wilson Favor Jersey
City Mayor.
tF,,o,. the NEWS Correspondent

Trenton. Feb. l4,-The formal
shying of his hat into the guberna-
torial ring by former Mayor Frank
S. Katzenbach, Jr., OF this city, has
started a lot of speculation in politi-
cal circles al to the probable chances
of Mr.. Katzenbach winning the NOM
nation. 1t Is we'll understood that
Mr. KatzenbacL will not have the
support of the Democrats in the
camp of Governor Wilson and who
claim to be the real Progressives in
the party, for these men will be be-
hind Mayor Fl. Otto Wittpenn, Of
Jersey City. Discussing the Katzen-
bach boom today. q member of the
Democratic State Committee viewed
the situation, as far as Trenton's
former mayor is concerned. this way:
Mr.. Katzenbach admittedly Is
strong in South Jersey. but the bulk
of the vote does not come from
South Jersey. 1t is extremely doubt
full if he will make as good a u
for the governorship in North Jersey
as Mayor Wittpenn. and the Demo
cratic party should nominate the
candidate who will % most likely to
capture the North Jersey strong
holds. Mr.. Katzenbach is we'll
known throughout the state. has
| many friends and is 4 fine campaign
! err. but there are one or two factors
that will initiate against him in this
campaign. In the first place he has
permitted his personal preferences
to interfere with party support. and
since Woodrow Wilson has entered
tha DemOcratio arena In New Jersey
Mr.. Katzenbach has done little ser
vice in the party ranks. Beside this,
the former Trenton mayor has not
shown himself to be very progress
sive. The New Jersey democracy
cannot afford to take any reactionary
lstep at the present time in the choice
of a candidate feY~governor, and if
the party does not nomInate-2@r4e4
progressive for chief executive of the
| state disaster will come at the cleo
ton next November"
The launching of the Katzenbach
boom has led to renewed activity in
the Wittpenn camp. Mayor Wittpenn
was at the State House this week
and was seer In little conferences
with various state leaders among the
Wilson followers. The plans for the
Wittpenn campaign are being care
fully made and a little later the
movement in favor of the Jersey City
mayor will be in full blast to con-
tinue in a determined n until
the primary election in September.

Chief of Police Beavers Wednesday
was placed in possession of starting
Information OF an organized plan for
the ruin of young girls which is said
to have been formed with the con-
nivance of the police and by them
encouraged and protected.
A prominent business man was the
informant. He did not make a gen.
eral accusation, but entered into spe-
cifc details, giving in every instance
names. streets and street numbers.
The story is the most sensational
brought to the attention of Chief
Beavers in the police scandal which
already has resulted in the suspension
of eight policemen.

The Chief, on receiving the details
Of the alleged plot for the debauching

the Chief that he had made complaint

that significantly enough, the inmates

conclusion was that the police them

The Chiefs informant told also the
names OF clubs where. he said. police
men and detectives were in the habit

Keefer and Stepson
Fined; Wife to Ask
Divorced and Alimony

With David Keefer and his step
son, Jack Macy, being fined in Police
Court late Tuesday, the curtain has
been rung down on another act of the
Keefer marital drama.
Mrs. Keefer has announced she will
start the show going again in twelve
months with a divorce suit, in which
she will endeavor to obtain separa-
ton and alimony from her husband.
The trial of Keefer and young Macy
in Police Court yesterday was the
sequel to a fight at the Piedmont
Driving Club last week over a $4,000
automobile, against which Keefer had
instituted bail trover proceedings.
After Keefer had been fined $25.75
by Recorder Broyles, a case of dis
orderly conduct was entered against
the stepson, who was fined $1075.

the Overman lobby investigating
committee in the person of David La

Lamar staggered to the witness

without the Representatives consent,
when endeavoring to have Judge Rob

of directors of the Union Pacific Rail
road, engage his friend, Edward Lou

ing to get into telephone communica-
ton with Judge Lovett. The judge
was not there, and so l did not talk
with him. But l left a message with
his secretary to the effect that Con-
gresham Riordan, of New York,
thought that I.auterbach could be of
very considerable service to the Union
Pacific in settling the suits growing
out of the dissolution Of the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific.
Il stated that Lauterbach did not
want money; he simply wanted to Of

How did you happen to select the
name Of Representative Riordan ~

the witness carelessly.
On being pressed by Senator Mel

used Riordan's name in attempting to

was without success.
