YOUNG COUPLE IN
SLOW DEATH PACT
Marriage Opposed, They Drink
Bi-chIoride of Mercury and
Are Awaiting End.
Especial to the Newark start

ENGLEWOOD. N. j., July S.-Side
by side In the emergency ward OF the
Englewood Hospital, dying from Di-
chloride of mercury, is a 1s-year-oid
bride and her 17-year-old husband.
The doctors say that death for the
two of them is a question of hours
only, as they each swallowed enough
of the poison to kill. A post card,
found in the clothing of the young
man, which was purchased at Coney
yesterday, bore the following mes
sage:
..our last wish is to be buried to-
gether.'
The young man gives the name OF
John L. Taltrovitz, which the police
and hospital authorities claim to be
fictitious. He says his father Is a
wealthy travelling merchant" but
refuses to tell his name or address.
The young woman before her mar
rage was Miss Barbara M. Alderman,
of Baltimore, Md. She says she has a
sister living at 1870 East Thirty-second
street, Brooklyn. This sister, Mrs.
Metz, has been notified by the police
and she is on her way here to the
bedside of her sister.
The young man told the authorities
that he and his young bride were
driven to take the poison because his
father, who is wealthy, objected to
the marriage and had threatened to
have 1t annulled.
He said that since his allowance
was cut off he has been trying to
earn a living by selling books. He
found the struggle too hard, he says,
and then it was that he and his bride
decided to take the poison.
Taltrovitz says he and Miss Acker-
man were married on June II last in
st. Marks Church, New York. Up
to that time he had ample funds and
had an account with a trust company
of Jersey City. He says he met his
father in Jersey City last Friday by
appointment, and at this time he
was informed that the marriage
would be annulled, because both were
his predicament, both agreed that
they would rather die than be sep
arated, and they Immediately planned
to end their existence.
1t was learned late tonight that
the young mans father is a wealthy
man of Los Angeles, Cal. The boy,
it is said, was student at Prince
ton, and 1t is learned that the father
not only cut off his allowance. but
said he would remove him from col
lege, in case he would not consent to
an annulment of the marriage.

COURT ORDERS LAWYER TO
GIVE UP CLIENTS MONEY

TRENTON, N. J., July SIN an
opinion filed in the Court of Chancery
today, Chancellor Walker practically
holds that Winfield S. Angleman, the
Plainfield lawyer is guilty of defal
cation. The chancellor says that the
very explanation made by the lawyer
as to why he did not turn $4,000 over
to his client, Lydia p. Bullock, evin-
ces a conscience of guilt.
Mrs. Bullock allowed Angleman to
compromise "a $1,000 mortgage for
$4,000. The lawyer collected the
money and then despite the entreaties
of the woman, he refused to turn
over the proceeds to her. Mrs. Bull
lock filed a bill in chancery asking
for an accounting and to have the
court direct the payment of the money
due her. Chancellor Walker made a
decree that the money be paid forth
with together with the costs and a
counsel fee of $3.50 for Mrs. Buliock's
lawyer.

NO WORD RECEIVED AS
YET FROM MEAT HOUSES

No word has yet been received from
the large western packing houses by
the local retail butchers who last
week petitioned the wholesalers to
resume their delivery service in this
city, which was interrupted by the
drivers strike.
The petition was signed by about
$50 of the local retail market men,
who consider it a burden to be COM
PEELED to send their own delivery
wagons to the various packing houses
for their supply of meats. The re-
tailers first took the matter up with
the local representatives of the large
packers, but no results were obtained.
Then they got together and framed a
petition which they sent to all the
large wholesale houses. which have
discontinued the delivery service.
II satisfaction Is not received by
the retailers before the end of the
week they claim they will boycott
the western packers and deal solely
with the local slaughter-house firms.

RAILWAY BUSINESS
BLOCK WIPED OUT
500, 900 Fire Is Believed to
Have Been of Incen-
diary Origin.

RAILWAY, July 8.--A 100000 fire,
said to be of incendiary origin, wiped
out an entire business block here
early today. The blaze started in
the rear of the hardware store of
Thomas H. Roberts, at 20 Third
street, In the heart of the business
section, and gained Roadway rapidly.
A nightwatchman discovered the
blaze and turned In a general alarm,
but long before the firemen arrived
the entire building at 29 Third street
was in flames and the fire was rapid
ly spreading to the adjoining struc-
lures
The buildings in the block are all
frame structures and, dried by the
long drouth, burned like finder. AS
soon as the fire department arrived
they saw that the fire had gotten be-
yond their control. and hurry calls
for aid were sent to Westfield and
neighboring towns.
Adjoining the hardware store is an
empty building. the top floors being
used occasionally for storage pur-
poses. On the other side of the empty
| store, at % Third street, is a butcher
shop, owned by Robert Pons, and
| next to the market is the cafe of
Thomas A. F'yffe, ST., father of
Mayor Fyffe, of Railway. All these
buildings are one-story structures
with lofts.
Entire Block Destroyed.
Adjoining the saloon is three-story
building, the upper floors of which
are used as lodgerooms. Nicholas
Dominica. a fruit dealer. occupies the
store floor. This entire block of
buildings were completely burned to
the ground.
Only the good work of the firemen
and the assistance lent by the West
field department kept the fire from
spreading to the next block. The fire
was still smouldering at noon today.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
The police of Railway are conducting
rigid investigation into the cause
of the blaze today.
Mr.. Roberts, owner of the hardware
store in when the fire is said to have
started. is at loss to account for
its origin. He said there was abso-
lutely no fire in the store, and that
| part of the building where the blaze
started is not even lighted by cleo
tricity.
The hardware store is the last one
on the block. A strong west wind
was blowing last night, which caused
the blaze to communicate directly to
the buildings east of the store, among
which was the saloon owned by
Thomas Fyffe.
Mr.. Fyffes son, the mayor of Rah-
way, was active in exposing an al
legged shortage In the accounts of the
city treasurer here, and JUST before
midnight last night when the fire
broke out the Office of city treasurer
was declared vacant and new man
was appointed by Mayor Fyffe. Many

WASHINGTON. July Slack OF a
quorum in the House has for three
weeks prevented consideration of the
Clayton bill amending the Erdman
act, and until enough members return
to Washington no action on the bill
can be taken. The House is working
under an agreement which will pre-
vent the consideration of any business
except by unanimous consent until
July ID, ard until that date it is
probable that the consideration OF
the Erdman act amendment will be
prevented.
The Erdman bill has already
passed the Senate in a slightly diff

self. harangued the people crowding
the courtroom. She said:

There will be rebellion and the east

BANK CRASH TO
Be INVESTIGATED


meeting, but some statement is ex-

| irst-Second Bank.
WASHINGTON, July s.-John
Skeleton Williams, assistant secre-
tary of the Treasury, who repre-
scented Secretary McAdoo at the clos
ing of the Pittsburgh First-Second
National Bank, today declared that
the institution had been seriously
Imismanaged and the extent CT the
lmismanagement would be determined
by the department of justice"
1t developed today that the treas
Jury department yesterday offered the
solvent Pittsburgh banks 100000 of
government deposits to meet any
emergency, but that the offer was
declined because the banks were in
position to meet the situation.
The entire capital and surplus of
the First-Second, amounting to $5,-
$780, 900, has probably been wiped out,
but the officers of the bank have as
sured the government that depositors
will be paid in full, or nearly in full.
Members of the clearing house
committee of Pittsburgh" said Mr..
Williams, "haye assured the depart
lment that the banking situation Is
now well in hand and that they be-
llieve that the Clearing House Assoc
lciation will be able to prevent any
further trouble"
Officials now are giving particular
attention to the discrepancy between
| the sworn report of the bank to the
comptroller of the currency on June
4 and the financial stateemnt it pub
lished in the Pittsburgh newspapers.
The report to the comptroller showed
nearly 100000 in rediscounts or Dor
rowed money, but that item was
omitted from the published statement.
The national bank act requires the
| publication of the statement in the
form submitted to the comptroller.
Treasury officials today reiterated
their confidence that, the general
banking condition in Pittsburgh and
the entire country was sound and
! strong and that the failure of the
First-Second National Bank was sim

''I'd just appeal for one more wallop
at that coon that had me locked up,"
he said. doubling up his fist, "and he
wouldn't trouble me no more"
