VIOLA ABSOLVED
OF MURDER GUILT
Prosecutors Office Says He
Could Have Known Nothing
of Bloomfield Killing.

After a searching investigation into
the life of John Viola, 81 years old,
of Heckel street, Belleville, who
committed suicide Saturday after
noon by jumping from second story
window of st. Michaeps Hospital.
Chief Frederick Weimer, Of the
prosecutors staff. expressed his conf
dence today that the dead man had
no knowledge of the murder of Mrs.
Angelo Cerciello, whose mutilated
BODY was found in the Silver Lake
section of Bloomfield Friday morning.
Detective-Sergeant Walter Godfrey,
who has been working on the case,
and investigated viola's record, stated
that in his opinion Viola had no
knowledge of the crime. 1t is be-
lleved that arrests in the case will
be made shortly. The hatchet with
which the woman was murdered has
been found by the detectives, and
other valuable evidence procured.
Viola's suicide was most spectacu-
lar. He was in the surgical ward
awaiting an operation for a stab
wound, when he suddenly jumped
from his bed, and before the attend
ants could check him he plunged
through the sash and screen of the
window on the Central avenue side
of the building. Dr. Lenzer, an in
terne, saw the man rushing for the
window and grabbed one of his feet,
but he could not hold him because
his hands were wet, and Viola lunged
through a skylight, crushing his
skull and sustaining internal injuries
which resulted in his death almost
instantly.

MOVES TO PROTECT
NEWARK AS PORT
Senator MARITIME introduces
Resolution to Suspend Con-
soIidation of Districts.
Star Bureau,
Metropolitan National Bank Bldg,
WASHINGTON. June 2.

The first fruits of the campaign be-
ing made by the Newark Board of
Trade to preserve the customs port
of Newark were seen today when
Senator James E. MARITIME, of New
Jersey, introduced a resolution direct
ing the secretary of the treasury to
withhold any action toward consoli-
dating the port with New York.
The order to amalgamate the New
ark port with that of New York was
made by President Taft toward the
close of his administration. This or
der has been rigidly opposed by mer-
chants and shippers of New Jersey,
and personal visits have been made
by delegations from the Newark
Board of Trade to prevent this oroer
from being put into effect.
Senator Nelson said bill was no"
before the commerce committee TO
suspend the reorganization for TWO
years and that an opinion on It's
merits had been asked of the secre-
tary Of the treasury.
Marines resolution was as fol-
lows
whereas during the last admins
tration, President Taft promulgated
an order whereby 1t is proposed on
the first day of July 1913, to con
solidate the business and transfer
the collection of custom dues from
various ports In the State of New
Jersey to the Cities of New York and
Philadelphia, and. whereas the en-
forcement of said order would IN
fiict great financial loss and ineon-
venience to the shippers and other
business interests at such ports In
that state, therefore, Resolved, .ny
the Senate, the House of Representa-
tives concurring, that the secretary
of the treasury is hereby directed 10
carry into effect the provisions and
of said order OF con-
solidation, until further action BY the
senate and House of Representa-
tives.' II. b. w

START TRIALS OF
SILK WORKERS IN
PATERSON STRIKE
Alexander Scott, Publisher of
SociaIistic Weekly Issue, Be-
fore Court Today.
FORTY MEN AND WOMEN
WILL COME BEFORE JURY
Newark Lawyer Is to Aid
the Defense-I. w. w. Is
Scored by Minister.
[From . stalr correspondent.1 ]

5 PATERSON, N. J., June 2.--In
Judge Klenert's courtroom today was
opened another act in the great strike
drama that has been staged here for
nearly four months.
Alexander Scott, editor of the
Weekly Issue a Socialist publication,
is to stand trial on the charge of
hostility to government. The crime
of which he is accused is one written
long ago on the statute books. Cases
involving it are as rare as those
which have been based upon the al
lied but graver charge, of treason.
When Scott's trial Is disposed of,
thirty-six others of equal interest,
though less Importance, will inter-
vene before the cases of Big Bilf'
Haywood. Elizabeth Gurley Flynn
and Carlo Tresca.
Turn Hall Proprietor's Trial Next.
Thomas Cappa, the proprietor of
Turn Hail. in which the $4,000 silk
strikers had their headquarters and
held many mass meetings, will be
tried Immediately after Scott on a
charge of keeping "disorderly
house, The State will maintain that
because the l. w. w. leaders, who
are to be tried for melting to riot
were allowed to appear there and be-
cause various strikers. arrested after
various riots, attended the mass
meetings.
After Cappa's trial will come those
of thirty-fve strikers. They are
charged with unlawful assemblage, :"
under an ancient statute that has
mouldered in musty law books for
several centuries.
The rumored break in the ranks
of the strikers did not take place to-
day. Only a few millhands scattered
here and there among the smaller
plants are at work and their num-
ber has not been. materially increased
for weeks.
AIR the interest of the strikers CEN
tired in the Court House AS soon as
the doors opened crowd of them
swarined into Judge K1enert's court
room.
An assault and battery case not
connected with the strike was being
tried and Scott's case had to await
its disposition.
Newark Lawyer for Defense.
Henry Carless, a Socialist lawyer of
Newark, is chief counsel for Scott.
Henry Marelli. one of the leading
lawyers of this city. is associated
with him.
Gustav A. Hunzker. another attorn-
ey who will figure in most of the
strike trials, went to Jersey City to-
day to argue before Vice Chancellor
Stevenson for an injunction re-
straining the police from preventing
the use of Turn Hall by the strikers.
I, Something of the bitterness that is
behind the trials was indicated by
the Rev. ]. M. Martin. pastor of the
Broadway Reformed Church. In a
sermon last night on "The Red Flag
and Its Future" he said:
LAS a minister of Christ, say that
any lover of his country who serves
under the I. w W. helps her-his
country to ruin; that any God-fear-
ing man who follows 1.-THE 1. w. w.
gives his assistance to infidelity,
and that any Christian who is a
party to it, aids the cause of anti
Christ"

South Orange avenue trolley car. at
Magazine estreet and Avenue L, for
nearly half an hour yesterday after
noon, while the police, the car crew
and some of the crowd from the ball
game attempted to Aft the car from
the body. Their efforts were in vain,
for the boy had been killed almost
instantly when the front wheel OF the
rear truck passed over the body just
below the shoulders, as he lay on the
track.
The funeral of the wee victim will
be held tomorrow morning from ST,
Benedict's Church. The lad was a
pupil in. the first grade at st. Bene-

Park 1t has been a practise for
many small boys in the neighhorhood
to steal rides on the cars, hidden
where the motorman or conductors
are unable to see them. Sometimes
the point of vantage is between the
two cars of the "double-headers' or
the rear tenders; even the window
guards on the side of the car aexr
to the other rails have been used.
Rudolph was in neither of these
dangerous places, but was seated on
the front step of the trailer. The
conductor of the forward car. Fred
kugelman. % years old. of 1s1 South
Orange avenue, shouted to him just
as the car started to move. Fright
ened, the little fellow rolled from his
seat into the street and then under
the car. His companions yelled but
1t was too late and the wheel had
pinned him down.
The brother of the victim ran to his
home, a few blocks away, and told
his parents that Rudolph had been
hurt When the mother learned he
was dead she became hysterical and
had to be taken back to the house.
She was not allowed near the car
while the Public Service wrecking
crew was jacking it up.N
A man, frantic at the word that
1t was his boy, ran to the spot
shouting in German. He was drag

discovered the error he turned upon
the little boy with him and aimed a
